A national group with ties to Homeland Security helped paln the Occupy Oakland busts

As cities across America evict encampments of the Occupy Wall Street movement, similarities of timing, talking points and tactics among major metropolitan mayors and police chiefs have led critics to wonder: Is some sort of national coordination going on?

The White House says there’s no federal oversight. Speaking November 15 aboard Air Force One, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said “The president’s position is that obviously every municipality has to make its own decisions about how to handle these issues.”

Journalist attacked by police while documenting Occupy Wall Street protests

Journalist Luke Rudkowski was attacked by police Wednesday night while trying to document the Occupy Wall Street arrests in NY. NYPD used pepper spray, batons, and brute force to move protesters away from the entrance to Wall Street after many tried to push through police barricades. Rumors immediately circulated that police provocateurs dressed as protesters were to blame for the incident.

Protest at Palmerola Air Base Marks 2nd Anniversary of Military Takeover in Honduras

On the morning of June 28th, around 200 people gathered a few miles away from the entrance to Palmerola Air Base, which is located in Honduras but used by the United States Air Force. The marchers proceeded towards the main gate to denounce the US military base due to the US's military presence and its role in the overthrow of Honduras' democratically elected government on June 28th, 2009. The plane that sent Honduras' president Manuel Zelaya into exile on that day flew from the capital Tegucigalpa to Palmerola Air Base before continuing in the opposite direction to Costa Rica.
