What is the TPP? Here's the BEST quick explanation you're likely to come across. Thank you, Robert Reich.

Bill Moyers, one of the few remaining real journalists in this country, has called the TPP the "Death of Democracy." IT IS THAT BAD. It is a nightmare for America and for all of humanity, as well as the Earth we all share.

Obama wants to push it through Congress during the lame duck session. It's his pet project.

$hillary -- at THIS moment, when she's trying to get "elected" -- is now currently claiming to be against it, but she's not. She, Kaine & all the rest of the "Democrats" (Republicans in sheep's clothing) have pushed for it, all along.

IF NOTHING ELSE CONVINCES YOU THAT OBAMA & THE REST OF THE U.S. GOVERNMENT ARE RUN BY GLOBAL CORPORATIONS, THIS SHOULD.

I voted for him twice. He is a complete and total sellout.

The megalithic corporations that run this planet have completely taken over the American government -- BOTH sides of the supposedly TWO-party system. We have nothing but Republican corporatists on both sides of the aisle. This is why we just had a "Democratic" National Convention that was HOSTED BY REPUBLICANS and lobbyists for these corporations. Unprecedented. Shocking. Ridiculous. And extremely dangerous.

If you don't know about it yet -- and the government definitely does not WANT you to know about it -- learn about the TPP. Talk about it to anyone who will listen. Millennials and teens, educate your parents. Annoy the hell out of everyone you know. America MUST wake up and pay attention to what is going on.

The situation is dire. We are at a critical juncture in both American history, and that of the entire world.

Please share this video. If there is a demonstration against the TPP near you, make a sign & GO. Or just suit up & show up.

President Obama has just begun a public-relations offensive to move the Trans Pacific Partnership deal through Congress during the lame-duck session before he leaves office. But Hillary Clinton now vows to oppose the TPP -- in the lame-duck session, or afterward,

What's wrong with the TPP? Watch our video to find out. (Its corporate backers have already got "fast-track" authority to move the deal through Congress without any power to amend it, thereby greasing the wheels of this global race to the bottom.)
