Hi there,

I believe that people who are concerned about the climate catastrophe, economic and racial justice and war and peace, are not a fringe minority, not even a silent majority, but the silenced majority—silenced by the corporate media. That's why we have to take the media back—especially now. But we can't do it without your support. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. With your contribution, we can continue to go to where the silence is, to bring you the voices of the silenced majority. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much!

Hillary Clinton Says Donald Trump’s Rhetoric Is Aiding ISIS

HeadlineSep 20, 2016

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, meanwhile, took aim at Donald Trump, saying his rhetoric was helping non-state terrorist groups.

Hillary Clinton: “We know that a lot of the rhetoric we’ve heard from Donald Trump has been seized on by terrorists—in particular, ISIS—because they are looking to make this into a war against Islam, rather than a war against jihadists, violent terrorists, people who number in the maybe tens of thousands, not the tens of millions. They want to use that to recruit more fighters to their cause by turning it into a religious conflict.”

South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham called for Rahami to be treated as an “enemy combatant” and placed in indefinite military custody rather than be treated as a civilian suspect.
