Stein Campaign qualifies for Matching Funds

Such good news:

The Federal Election Commission has declared Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein eligible to receive federal matching funds. To become eligible, a candidate must raise a threshold amount of $100,000 by collecting at least $5,000 in 20 different states in amounts of no more than $250 per individual.

It is not publicly known how many people, overwhelmingly but not exclusively men, were caught in the CIA’s web of so-called “extraordinary renditions”, extra-judicial transfers of detainees to foreign countries, many of which practiced even more brutal forms of torture than the US came to adopt. Human rights groups over the years have identified at least 50 people the CIA rendered, going back to Bill Clinton’s presidency.
