Nancy Pelosi went house hunting last week in south Florida.

She was actually on my plane.

She wants to retire in Florida to enjoy low taxes, mask free hair salons, and Republican freedom policies, while literally destroying all these good things for the American people.

Navy christens oiler named after gay icon Milk

The first American military ship named after an LGBTQ icon is now sailing international waters and further honoring the legacy of the late gay San Francisco supervisor Harvey Milk.

At a November 6 ceremony in San Diego, Navy Veteran and Clinical Program Director of the Johns Hopkins Center for Transgender Health Paula Neira christened the Navy's USNS Harvey Milk (T-AO 206) by breaking a bottle of sparkling wine across the bow in a time-honored naval tradition. The Navy's Military Sealift Command will operate it.

"Leaders like Harvey Milk taught us that diversity of backgrounds and experiences help contribute to the strength and resolve of our nation. There is no doubt that the future Sailors aboard this ship will be inspired by Milk's life and legacy," noted Secretary of the Navy Carlos Del Toro, who attended and spoke at the ceremony.

Neira said the ceremony was "about family and about duty. Harvey Milk represents both. This message about family is about us giving hope to the us-es, not just the LGBTQ community, all of the people who have not been welcomed to military service in our history and our country."

Del Toro said he needed to be there "to amend the wrongs of the past" when LGBTQ people were drummed out of the military and barred from serving openly and proudly. Today, he said, "We need to give inspiration to all our LGBTQ military leaders who serve in the Navy today and civilian force and tell them we are committed to them and their future."

As for Milk, Del Toro said he set an example "for all Americans as the life he lived in the Navy and the life he lived afterwards was truly exemplary." He added that Milk is the sort of "Naval leaders we need."

Japan eyes over 30 tril. yen economic stimulus to fight pandemic

The government plans to spend more than 30 trillion yen ($265 billion) on a set of measures to ease the fallout on the Japanese economy from the coronavirus pandemic, sources close to the matter said Sunday.

The stimulus package will include providing 100,000 yen in cash handouts for all children aged 18 or younger and restarting the "Go To Travel" subsidy program to promote domestic tourism, the sources said. Prime Minister Fumio Kishida earlier said the size of the package will be "several tens of trillion yen."

The government will finance the measures with funds leftover from the fiscal 2020 budget and also plans to issue new bonds to cover any shortfall, said the sources.

The government will accordingly compile a supplementary budget for the current fiscal year through next March, aiming to have it passed by parliament by the end of December, they said. Part of the package will also be covered by the initial budget for fiscal 2022 to be compiled at the same time.

California Governor Out Of Public Sight Since Vaccine Booster Shot 11 Days Ago

California Gov. Gavin Newsom has remained out of public sight since getting a CCP virus vaccine booster shot on Oct. 27.

The governor’s office released a surprising announcement on Oct. 29 canceling Newsom’s plans to attend the United Nations climate summit in Scotland to deal with unspecific family obligations. The governor’s spokesperson said on Oct. 29 that Newsom planned to participate in the climate conference virtually, but a delegation schedule released later did not feature any virtual events with Newsom. Newsom spokesperson Erin Mellon said on Thursday the governor will participate virtually in “a couple” of the climate summit events next week. The office did not respond to questions on Friday about what the governor has been doing this week. “The governor will participate in a couple events next week focused on global efforts to advance zero emission vehicles and to move beyond oil,” Mellon said Thursday. The governor was last seen receiving a Moderna CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus booster shot on Oct. 27. The governor’s booster was a mix-and-match with the original regimen, which was a Johnson & Johnson (J&J) shot. “I am choosing not to do J&J today not because I had any problems with J&J, in fact it went beautifully, but to make the point about the opportunity to mix and match,” Newsom said at the time.

The California governor should have appeared before TV cameras to announce the state’s CCP virus vaccination program for children aged 5 to 11. Atypically, the announcement was made via an emailed news release instead. Newsom submitted some prerecorded remarks to a transit conference earlier this week and his office announced some appointments to state agencies and boards. He also posted a photo on his Instagram account with his wife and four children, aged 5 to 12, dressed as pirates on Halloween. “Hope everyone had a safe, happy Halloween!!” the governor wrote in the post.

Newsom’s Twitter account was quiet from Oct. 28 until Tuesday, when he sent posts backing fellow Democratic Govs. Phil Murphy of New Jersey and Terry McAuliffe of Virginia on Election Day. As the week went on, Newsom’s Twitter account became more active. It’s rare, but not unprecedented, for Newsom to go a whole week without some type of appearance. Such absences are usually explained, including when Newsom leaves the state for vacation. It’s a relatively slow time in Sacramento as the state Legislature is not in session and won’t meet again until January. Recent storms mean no major wildfires are burning out of control, as has been the case in recent years.

Winning Race Horse Blows Cover Of Turk At The Center Of International Gold Smuggling Ring

If you needed another reminder of the dangers of exposing oneself on social media, you should probably take a look at the curious case of the disappearance (and re-appearance) of Reza Zarrab, the US government's star witness in a case alleging that he helped Turkish and Iranian traders abuse the financial system.

In late August, a photo appeared in PS Dressage magazine as part of an article about Sonata MF, a horse who had just become a national champion in the equestrian sport. The since-removed picture showed “Aaron Goldsmith,” the smiling owner of the facility near Palm Beach, FL., where the horse trained. However, it didn't take long for Turkish journalists to identify Goldsmith as Reza Zarrab. While long forgotten for some, in the summer of 2014, we reported in detail on what appeared to be the biggest, most bizarre money-laundering scheme ever, involving Turkey trading "200 tons of secret gold" with Iran...

The topic of Turkey's Oil-for-Gold 'deals' has not been far from our thoughts over the last few years (here, here, and here) but as Bloomberg reports, after accessing a report leaked on March 14 of a network that spanned Turkey, China, Dubai and Iran, the plot reveals "one of the most complex illicit finance schemes [prosecutors] have seen." It included the classic money-laundering techniques of over-invoicing and false invoicing (exactly as in the case of the Chinese commodity financing scandal underway) but the secret government plan to juice Turkey's exports goes much deeper; and if you think that the exposure of this scheme is slowing Turkey's manipulation, think again. Turkey’s trade balance continues to fluctuate unpredictably as gold stocks flow out of the country in bursts. “Turkey’s going to continue it,” the Turkish economy minister said. “If those casting aspersions on the gold trade are searching for immorality, they should take a look in the mirror.”

We first started noticing major 'odd' exports of gold from Turkey to Iran in May 2012. But in 2013, with a plunging currency, surging inflation, slowing growth, and specter of rapid QE-driven hot money outflows leaving his nation desperate; Zafer Caglayan, the minister in charge of Turkey's $800 billion economy decided that the only way to ensure success in the looming election... was to cheat...

It highlighted a network including Turkey, China, Dubai, and Iran which dedicated itself to evading US sanctions. One observer called it, “one of the most complex illicit finance schemes [prosecutors] have seen.” At the time, Zarrab pleaded guilty and cooperated against his Iranian co-defendant, who was eventually convicted.

Specifically, Zarrab testified in December 2017 that he had bribed Turkey’s former economy minister, Mehmet Zafer Çağlayan, in a scheme to smuggle gold for oil in violation of US sanctions on Iran and that then-Prime Minister and current President Erdoğan personally authorized the involvement of Turkish banks in the scheme although he was not charged in the case. Zarrab's apparent reappearance has caused a media sensation in Turkey, with some outlets including including TR724 and TurkishMinute publishing the identifying details about his new life and his "current circumstances," A federal judge in New York on Monday unsealed previously-secret conditions of Zarrab’s release that showed that he was permitted to live in Florida under his newfound opulence.

As Bloomberg reports, Robert Anello, Zarrab’s lawyer, responding to questions about whether his client was violating terms of his bail, said: “Mr. Zarrab has abided by the court’s requirements and the terms of his release.” Anello said he would not confirm any details of his client’s current life and said “any attempt by media to disclose his whereabouts would be irresponsible.”
