Admired World Leaders and Middle East Views

Political cartoonist Ted Rall and CIA whistleblower John Kiriakou deprogram you from mainstream media every weekday at 9 AM EST.

Today we discuss:

• Bill and Hillary Clinton cave in to Republican demands that he testify before the House Oversight Committee about their relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. A contempt vote still looms.

• Ignoring Trump’s threats, Uruguayan President Yamandu Orsi and China’s Xi Jinping sign a dozen strategic partnership agreements following a Beijing confab that makes China that biggest trading partner for Latin America. Meanwhile, conservative populist Laura Fernández won Costa Rica's presidency, promising to continue the aggressive reorienting of the Central American nation's politics started by her political sponsor, outgoing President Rodrigo Chaves.

• Don Lemon said about a dozen federal agents came to his Los Angeles hotel to arrest him last week, even though his attorney had told authorities he would turn himself in. Is Lemon’s body a lethal force?
