http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/34565-radioactive-water-from-fukushima-i=
s-leaking-into-the-pacific
Dahr Jamail, Truthout: Nearly five years on, the environmental disaster at =
Japan's Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant continues to unfold, and expe=
rts warn that we should expect the disaster of radioactive contamination to=
continue indefinitely.
Opponents of GMO Labeling Could Face Tough Penalties in Dark Money Case
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/34574-opponents-of-gmo-labeling-could-fa=
ce-tough-penalties-in-dark-money-case

Will the History Books Record How Neo-Nazis Made Eyes at the Bundy Militia?
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/34575-will-the-history-books-record-how-=
neo-nazis-made-eyes-at-the-bundy-militia
Spencer Sunshine, Truthout: While Ammon Bundy and his compatriots were care=
ful to avoid overt racism and anti-Semitism during their occupation of the =

st groups.
The Populist Revolution: Bernie and Beyond
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/34576-the-populist-revolution-bernie-and=
-beyond
Ellen Brown, The Web of Debt Blog: The private-only banking model has been =
thoroughly tested, and it has proven to be a disastrous failure. We need a =
banking system that truly serves the needs of the people, and that objectiv=
e can best be achieved with banks that are owned and operated by and for th=

ration
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/34593-president-s-order-on-solitary-c=
onfinement-reverberates-beyond-youth-incarceration
Alan Mills, Truthout: The fact that immigration detention is excluded from =

r also signals much broader policy shifts for adults in state prisons and c=
ounty jails.

http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/34577-hillary-i-have-a-longer-history=
-than-one-vote-for-the-iraq-war
Robert Naiman, Truthout: When Washington political actors demand a major co=
mmitment of US troops to Iraq and Syria, it's essential to know: Who are th=
ese people? What did they advocate for in the past? In particular: What rol=
e did they and their associates play in creating the Iraq fiasco?
Why the $15 Minimum Wage Is Economically Feasible
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/34583-is-a-15-minimum-wage-economical=
ly-feasible
Jeannette Wicks-Lim, Dollars & Sense: Opposition to a $15 minimum wage come=
s not only from expected corners, but also from many economists. Current re=
search, however, finds that minimum-wage increases do not produce significa=
nt job losses.

<p style="margin: 0;padding: 0;font-size: 100%;color: #444 !important;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;line-height: 1.1"><strong>Alan Mills, Truthout:</strong> The fact that immigration detention is excluded from Obama's ban on solitary confinement for juveniles in the federal prison system limits its most immediate impacts on teens.
