FLORIDA GOV RICK SCOTT DECLARES STATE of EMERGENCY AHEAD OF FASCIST RICHARD SPENCER'S SPEECH - But how far will they go to assault the First Amendment on campuses?

"He was brought into office in 2010 as part of the

Florida Governor declares state of emergency ahead of speech by white supremacist

By Matthew Taylor
18 October 2017
Florida’s Republican governor Rick Scott has declared a state of emergency in advance of a planned speech by white supremacist Richard Spencer at the University of Florida in Gainesville on Thursday.
The emergency declaration, usually reserved for natural disasters such as hurricanes, was issued by Scott on Monday in response to a request by Alachua County Sheriff Sadie Darnell.
The governor's declaration puts the state Division of Emergency Management in charge of the event. It also places the Florida National Guard on standby, suspends restrictions on how public agencies use their funds, and enables any law enforcement officers who comes from outside of Alachua County to make arrests. It also allows for the imposition of curfews.
The University had initially rejected the request by the National Policy Institute, the far-right group that Spencer leads, to hold a meeting on campus in September. Administrators cited safety concerns in the aftermath of the white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia in August that saw one protester killed and 14 injured at the hands of one of Spencer's supporters. However, the University rescheduled Spencer's speech under threat of a federal lawsuit.
The decision of Scott to declare a state of emergency does not stem from any opposition on his part to the politics of Spencer and the so-called Alt-Right. Scott is a supporter of President Donald Trump, who infamously insisted that there were “fine people” among the white supremacists who rampaged in Charlottesville. He was brought into office in 2010 as part of the corporate-backed Tea Party movement, whose pseudo-populism was a blend of the nationalist and racist demagoguery that is the centerpiece of far-right ideology.
The Sheriff's Department has stated that more than 500 police officers will be on hand for the event, at an estimated cost of $500,000 dollars. There are expected to be a large number of protesters, likely exceeding the number of white supremacists. As at past protests, the police can be expected to use any pretext to attack and arrest demonstrators. Those arrests will then be used as further justification to crack down on students’ free speech rights and place further restrictions on the ability of students to organize politically on campus.
The presence of a phalanx of police officers on the campus will hardly be a guarantee against violence on the part of the far right.
At the rally in Charlottesville the police allowed groups of armed Nazis to fan out across the city, taking up positions at intersections and other key points in a military-style occupation, before the bulk of the right-wing protesters took to the streets. When confrontations ensued, police officers were seen on video standing by while counter-protesters were attacked by the armed right-wing mob. In statements made to the media after the event, Spencer confirmed that his organization had been coordinating with the police in the months leading up to the event.
The University of Florida has a diverse population of students, drawn from around the US and internationally, and there are no indications of any substantial support amongst the student body for Spencer's brand of far-right politics. There are, to be sure, some who would give political support to Spencer, such as the fascistic Turning Point USA organization, which has a student club on the campus. Their numbers are small, however, and do not reflect the views of the overwhelming majority of students and faculty.
In fact, Spencer's appearance on campus has been widely condemned by multiple student organizations, who have organized protests in advance of the speech. More than 3,500 people have signed a petition online urging the university to cancel Spencer's appearance.
On Monday, a rally was held by students and members of the community in opposition to the event, followed by a march to the school's administration building where calls were made for university president Kent Fuchs to resign. Students activists have stated that many plan to skip classes on Thursday to protest the event.
Spencer's organization has also failed to find support amongst the broader community. The National Policy Institute was compelled to directly take control of the distribution of the 800 tickets for the event after they learned that Gainesville area businesses and organizations were encouraging locals to buy tickets and then not attend the event.
It is clear that Spencer and the National Policy Institute have no base of popular support. At their rally in Charlottesville, they were only able to mobilize a few hundred people from across the country, despite months of advance planning. At all of Spencer's public appearance, his supporters have been outnumbered by protesters.
The ultimate aim of Scott and the interests he represents is to use Thursday’s planned event as a pretext to create a permanent police-state atmosphere on campus and set a precedent whereby mobilizing the police, with the National Guard on standby, to crack down on left-wing political opposition amongst students becomes the accepted practice.
Just as at the University of Berkeley in California in the wake of a fraudulent "Free Speech Week" protest by alt-right figures that did not occur, Scott and the administration at UF will seek to use Spencer’s appearance as a pretext to militarize the campus and establish ever more restrictive rules for how students can organize and hold meetings.
Universities have historically been centers of opposition to the political establishment. In the present atmosphere of rapidly growing social inequality, widespread hostility to the policies of the Trump administration and, above all, the threat of a nuclear world war, millions of students will be drawn into the struggle against the capitalist system and the fight for socialism. It is within this political context that the state of emergency has been declared.
Notably, the University of Florida has a history of curtailing socialist political discussion on campus.
In the lead-up to a Socialist Equality Party presidential election campaign meeting last year hosted by the International Youth and Students for Social Equality at UF, university officials moved the designated meeting place at the last minute and mandated that a campus police officer be present at the meeting. The University also removed dozens of posters around the campus advertising the event in advance of the meeting.
OPOID AND ALCOHOL ADDICTION KILLS OF MIDDLE AMERICA
TO FINISH OFF THE WHITE AMERICAN MIDDLE CLASS, OBAMA HAD TO GET US ADDICTED AND DRIVEN TO THE SIDELINES BY HIS LA RAZA MEXICANS.

IT WORKED. NOW OBAMA IS WORKING TO UNSEAT TRUMP FOR A THIRD TERM FOR LIFE MUSLIM-STYLE DICTATORSHIP.



"These gigantic revenues and huge personal fortunes were 

accumulated by means of what can only be termed a massive 

social crime: the flooding of impoverished working-class 

neighborhoods with high volumes of opioids, narcotics that 

were being prescribed in vast quantities by doctors and 

pharmacists and illegal “pain centers” and “pill mills” that 

were a constant presence in the affected areas."

Behind the opioid crisis: Republicans and Obama cleared the way for corporate murder

By Patrick Martin
16 October 2017
Leading Republican and Democratic members of Congress and top Obama administration officials collaborated to shut down efforts by the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) to stem the flow of prescription opioids that have killed 200,000 Americans over the past two decades, according to a devastating exposure published Sunday by the Washington Post and broadcast Sunday night on the CBS news magazine “60 Minutes.”
The joint investigation by the Post and “60 Minutes” made use of extensive whistleblower revelations by former officials of the DEA, which has the main responsibility for halting the flow of illegal narcotics, including prescription drugs like oxycodone and hydrocodone.
Three major companies, all in the top 20 of the 

Fortune 500 and hugely profitable, dominate the 

distribution of these opioids: McKesson, Cardinal 

Health, and AmerisourceBergen, with combined 

revenues of more than $450 billion. McKesson 

chairman and CEO John Hammergren has the 

largest pension fund of any US corporate boss, a 

$160 million nest egg.
These gigantic revenues and huge personal fortunes were accumulated by means of what can only be termed a massive social crime: the flooding of impoverished working-class neighborhoods with high volumes of opioids, narcotics that were being prescribed in vast quantities by doctors and pharmacists and illegal “pain centers” and “pill mills” that were a constant presence in the affected areas.
The consequences have been felt in a historic reversal in the long-term rise of life expectancy in the United States. For middle-aged whites, particularly those living in rural areas, life expectancy is declining and death rates soaring, in large part because of the impact of opioid abuse and addiction.
Appalachia is a center of the opioid crisis. The figures presented in the Post /”60 Minutes” report are staggering—and damning. To Mingo County, West Virginia, an impoverished former mining area on the state border with Kentucky, population 25,000, the mid-sized Ohio-based drug distributor Miami-Luken shipped 11 million doses of oxycodone and hydrocodone in a five-year period: enough to give two pills a week to every man, woman and child in the county.
In the county seat, Williamson, population 2,938, Miami-Luken shipped 258,000 hydrocodone pills in one month to a single pharmacy. The city of Williamson has filed suit against the company and other drug distributors, charging them with deliberately flooding the city with pain pills to supply the black market. A document filed in the suit charges, “Like 

sharks circling their prey, multi-billion dollar 

companies descended upon Appalachia for 

the sole purpose of profiting off of the 

prescription drug-fueled feeding frenzy.”
Post reporters Scott Higham and Lenny Bernstein and “Sixty Minutes” reporter Bill Whitaker conducted dozens of interviews for their exposé, but the principal whistleblower is Joseph T. Rannazzisi, who headed the DEA’s Office of Diversion Control for a decade until he was forced out in 2015.
The Office of Diversion Control oversees the flow of prescription drugs produced by the major US pharmaceutical companies and shipped to hospitals and pharmacies and other prescribers by distributors, including the big three. By targeting unusually large and unexplained sales—for example, several Walgreen’s pharmacies in Florida sold more than one million opioid pills in a year, compared to a nationwide average of 74,000—the DEA unit could force companies to pay substantial fines.

BLOG: NEVER PRISON TIME FOR WALL STREET'S BIGGEST CRIMINALS!

These big three and smaller distributors paid more than $400 million in fines over the last decade as the result of the DEA, but this is a pittance compared to their gross revenues during that same period, well over $5 trillion. One former DEA official told the Post this sum simply represented “a cost of doing business.”
A more serious problem for the industry was the issuance of “freeze” orders, in which the DEA could use its authority to order a distributor to halt a shipment if there is “imminent danger” to the community. According to Rannazzisi, there was increasing resistance from top-level DEA officials, from 2011 on, to approving such “freeze” orders against opioid distributors. 

During this period, the drug distributors 

hired 46 DEA officials either directly or through law 

firms or lobbying groups representing them.
In 2014, industry lobbyists produced a bill, written by a former DEA lawyer, and introduced by Republican Representative Tom Marino, that substantially raised the threshold of proof for a DEA order to halt a shipment. Instead of “imminent danger,” such an order required proof of “a substantial likelihood of an immediate threat,” a standard so strict that, once adopted, there were no further DEA orders to halt drug distribution.
Marino’s bill was initially blocked by DEA opposition, but it was reintroduced with Democratic cosponsors and passed the House of Representatives by a voice vote, without opposition, in April 2015. In October 2015, Rannazzisi was pushed into retirement at the DEA, after previously being removed as head of the Office of Diversion Control by means of heavy pressure from congressional Republicans on the Obama Justice Department. In March 2016, the Senate passed a modified version of the Marino bill, and the House accepted the changes the following month. The DEA was now handcuffed, and the drug distributors could proceed without any concern about federal oversight.

BLOG: WE CAN ALWAYS COUNT ON THE WHORES IN CONGRESS TO SELL US OUT, AND TO SELL US OUT CHEAP!
As Rannazzisi told “60 Minutes”: “The drug industry—the manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors and chain drugstores—have an influence over Congress that has never been seen before. And these people came in with their influence and their money and got a whole statute changed because they didn't like it.”

The protection of the giant drug distribution companies—amid a nationwide epidemic of drug overdose deaths caused by the products they were distributing—was a bipartisan affair. Congressional Democrats cosponsored the legislation, and a former top Clinton administration official, Jamie Gorelick, was a lead attorney and lobbyist for the distributors. 

BLOG: OBAMA PICKED LORETTA LYNCH BECAUSE OF HER LONG HISTORY OF SERVING HIS CRONY CRIMINAL BANKSTERS FROM HER LAW FIRM. THAT IS ALL SHE DID AS ATTORNEY GENERAL. DITTO ERIC HOLDER!

Attorney General Loretta Lynch approved the legislation, and President Obama signed it into law, with the White House issuing a one-page press release to mark the occasion.
None of those involved, including Lynch and Obama, would comment to the Post or “60 Minutes.” According to the Post, “The DEA and Justice Department have denied or delayed more than a dozen requests filed by The Post and ‘60 Minutes’ under the Freedom of Information Act for public records that might shed additional light on the matter,” indicating that the Trump administration is continuing the stonewalling tactics begun under Obama.
When a “60 Minutes” camera crew came to Marino’s office, his aides called Capitol Hill police to have them removed.
Trump has rewarded the darling of the drug distributors, Representative Marino, by nominating him last month to become the next White House “drug czar,” in charge of coordinating federal efforts against the opioid crisis. Representative Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee, the main cosponsor of the bill, is now favored to be the Republican nominee for US Senate in Tennessee in 2018. Both representatives come from districts ravaged by the opioid crisis. According to the Post account, 106 people have died in Lycoming County, Pennsylvania, the largest in Marino’s district, since he first introduced his anti-enforcement legislation.
The following exchange from the “60 Minutes” program sums up the reality of corporate domination of American life, and the catastrophic impact on working people:
BILL WHITAKER: You know the implication of what you're saying, that these big companies knew that they were pumping drugs into American communities that were killing people.
JOE RANNAZZISI: That's not an implication, that's a fact. That's exactly what they did.
… These weren't kids slinging crack on the corner. These were professionals who were doing it. They were just drug dealers in lab coats.
