Hi there,

I believe that people who are concerned about war and peace, democracy, the climate catastrophe, and economic and racial justice, are not a fringe minority, not even a silent majority, but the silenced majority—silenced by the corporate media. But we can't do it without your support. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be TRIPLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $45. 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!

DOJ Charges Huawei with Bank Fraud, Seeks CFO’s Extradition

HeadlineJan 29, 2019

The U.S. announced Monday it was charging Chinese telecom giant Huawei and its chief financial officer Meng Wanzhou with bank fraud and stealing trade secrets. The U.S. is seeking Meng’s extradition from Canada, where she is out on bail after her December arrest. The bank fraud charge is related to Huawei subsidiary Skycom, which is alleged to have violated U.S. sanctions in Iran. The indictment comes amid ongoing trade negotiations between the U.S. and China, whose tariff truce will expire in March if no deal is made.
