U.S. FBI Says It Disrupted Russian Hackers

April 6, 2022

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation has wrested control of thousands of routers and firewall appliances away from Russian military hackers by hijacking the same infrastructure Moscow’s spies were using to communicate with the devices, U.S. officials said on Wednesday.

An unsealed redacted affidavit described the unusual operation as a pre-emptive move to stop Russian hackers from mobilizing the compromised devices into a “botnet” - a network of hacked computers that can bombard other servers with rogue traffic.

"Fortunately, we were able to disrupt this botnet before it could be used,” U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland said.

The Russian Embassy in Washington did not immediately return an email seeking comment.

The targeted botnet was controlled through malware called Cyclops Blink, which U.S. and UK cyberdefense agencies had publicly attributed in late February to “Sandworm,” allegedly one of the Russian military intelligence service’s hacking teams that has repeatedly been accused of carrying out cyberattacks.

Cyclops Blink was designed to hijack devices made by WatchGuard Technologies Inc and ASUSTeK Computer Inc, according to research by private cybersecurity firms. It provides Russian services with access to those compromised systems, offering the ability to remotely exfiltrate or delete data or turn the devices against a third party.

Watchguard issued a statement confirming it worked with the U.S. Justice Department to disrupt the botnet but did not disclose the number of devices affected - saying only that they represented "less than 1 percent of WatchGuard appliances."

AsusTek, better known as Asus, did not immediately return messages seeking comment.

FBI Director Chris Wray told reporters the FBI, with court approval, secretly reached into thousands of routers and firewall appliances to delete the malware and reconfigure the devices.

"We removed malware from devices used by thousands of mostly small businesses for network security all over the world," Wray said. "We shut the door the Russians had used to get into them."

The affidavit noted that U.S. officials launched an awareness campaign “to inform owners of WatchGuard devices of the steps they should take to remediate infections or vulnerabilities” and yet less than half the devices had been fixed to expel the hackers.

The affidavit noted that the FBI had carried out its work in cooperation with WatchGuard.

The announcement came amid a flurry of new sanctions announced against Russian banks and elites, days after grim images emerged of the bodies of civilians shot at close range in the town of Bucha.

Russia says its "special military operation" is aimed at demilitarizing and "denazifying" Ukraine, and it has denied targeting civilians

Arizona Attorney General Releases Maricopa County 2020 Election Interim Report – Individuals To Be Prosecuted For Election Fraud

The Arizona Attorney General has finally released an interim report on his investigation into the Maricopa County November 3rd, 2020 General Election.

The entire investigation has been delayed by Maricopa County’s ‘document preservation & production issues.’ The Attorney General reported to Arizona Senate President Karen Fann that his office is still receiving new information and that Maricopa County has still not fully complied with document requests.

This is similar to noncompliance issues faced by the Arizona Senate and Cyber Ninjas while conducting the full forensic audit of Maricopa County’s 2020 election.

What have they been hiding?

https://www.azag.gov/media/interest/ag-brnovich-letter-senate-president-karen-fann-re-2020-election

The report reveals that “between 100,000 and 200,000 ballots were transported without a proper chain of custody,” and signature verification standards were greatly decreased in the 2020 election. The Attorney General concluded that “Maricopa County failed to follow the EPM procedures when transporting 20% of the early ballots from drop box locations to MCTEC.”

The Attorney General alleges that 381 out of 1,895 Early Voting Ballot Transport Statements were missing required information such as ballot counts, audit signatures, courrier signatures, election department receiver signals, and documentation of security seals.

This is inconsistent with the Verity Vote investigation findings, which used public records requests for all ballot box retrieval and chain of custody forms utilized in Maricopa County during the 2020 General Election. This investigation found that Maricopa County failed to record the number of ballots on 1,514 out of 1,895 unique EVBTS and failed to record signatures on 48 of these documents.

Regarding signature verification standards, the report states, “the early ballot affidavit signature verification system in Arizona, and particularly when applied to Maricopa County, may be insufficient to guard against abuse.”

Under County Recorder Adrian Fontes, Maricopa County saw a massive decrease in the number of ballots rejected due to missing signatures or mismatched signatures. Due to the large volume of mail-in ballots in the 2020 election, the limited training of elections workers, and time restrictions, the AG’s office determined that 206,648 early ballot signatures were verified on November 4, 2020, with an average time of 4.6 seconds per signature.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Dr. Shiva’s extensive study of Maricopa County’s signature verification standards found an additional 200,000 signature discrepancies. There was no mention of this groundbreaking report.

This report also failed to mention any crimes committed by ballot traffickers and discovered by True The Vote and Dinesh DSouza. DSouza’s upcoming film is set to expose the nationwide operation that was used to steal the 2020 election from President Trump.

"Rubble" Surges To 2-Month Highs Against Dollar As Russia Works To Reduce FX Volatility

Having crashed to a record low of 121.5 per dollar shortly after the Ukraine war began - triggering memories of the battering it took during the 1998 Russian financial crisis - the Ruble was (for a brief period) the most potent symbol of the crushing blow that The West had struck against Russia's economic fortunes.

Things were so bad that President Biden took to Twitter to mock the currency, saying that it had been reduced to "rubble"...

filed under tweets that did not age well-only after two weeks too

As a result of our unprecedented sanctions, the ruble was almost immediately reduced to rubble. The Russian economy is on track to be cut in half. It was ranked the 11th biggest economy in the world before this invasion — and soon, it will not even rank among the top 20. — President Biden (@POTUS) March 26, 2022

Two weeks later, things look a little different as the Russian currency has soared higher against the USDollar - now at its strongest against the greenback in two months. There are numerous reasons for the rebound, including capital controls, but the main drivers appear to be Putin's "Rubles for Gas" ultimatums.

from April 1st

Putin May Collect $321 Billion Windfall If Oil and Gas Keep Flowing

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-04-01/putin-may-collect-321-billion-windfall-if-oil-gas-keep-flowing

Of course, due to the embarrassing nature of this resurgence going against the sanction-crushed-'rubble' narrative from Washington, U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen quickly jumped into rubbish the market's comeback here, claiming that the market for rubles has become so manipulated by actions of the Russian government and its central bank to limit capital outflows that "you should not infer anything" from the value of the ruble.

since you've been so "right" as the FRB chair and now the Treasury Sec...thaks for the 'input' Janey.../s

However, all the time China, India (and much of Europe) is still buying Putin's energy and ag products... no matter how loud the threats come from Washington, the Ruble will stave off the "rubble" narrative.

Additionally, Russian FinMin Anton Siluanov noted this morning that Russia will do everything to ensure its creditors receive debt payments, and is working on measures to reduce ruble volatility, make ruble exchange rate more predictable.

China warns of strong measures if U.S. Speaker Pelosi visits Taiwan

China warned on Thursday it would take strong measures if U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi visited Taiwan and said such a visit would severely impact Chinese-U.S. relations, following media reports she would go next week.

The possible visit has not been confirmed by Pelosi's office or Taiwan's government, but some Japanese and Taiwanese media reported it would take place after she visits Japan this weekend.

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian told reporters that Beijing firmly opposed all forms of official interactions between the United States and Taiwan, and Washington should cancel the trip.

Sunday marks the 43rd anniversary of the United States signing into law the Taiwan Relations Act, which guides ties in the absence of formal diplomatic relations and enshrines a U.S. commitment to provide Taiwan with the means to defend itself.

The last time a House speaker visited Taiwan was in 1997, when Newt Gingrich met then-President Lee Teng-hui.

Trudeau set to spend oil windfall on social and climate programs

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is set to deliver a budget that will funnel revenue windfalls from soaring oil prices toward costly new programs, passing up another chance to shore up Canada’s finances following record pandemic era spending.

Trudeau’s finance chief, Chrystia Freeland, is expected to use her second budget to roll out more than $100 billion (US$80 billion) in new spending promises, despite the government having run record deficits to blunt the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The fiscal trajectory, however, may be little changed given federal coffers are awash in new revenue from inflation and high commodity prices. The plan, due Thursday around 4 p.m. in Ottawa, is set to continue the tradition of Trudeau’s fiscal policy since taking power in 2015: a preference for new spending over returning the budget to balance, while trying to keep deficits low enough to reassure Canadians and investors he remains fiscally prudent. “It’s a bit of a balancing act,” said Elliot Hughes, a former adviser to Freeland’s predecessor who is now a consultant with Ottawa-based Summa Strategies. He said the governing Liberals will be “making commitments and developing policies and spending money in areas they feel will help boost the economy,” while acknowledging “a desire from many corners of the economy in Canada to have the government demonstrate fiscal restraint.” The case for deficit financing, however, is getting more difficult with inflation at a three-decade high and the economy running up against capacity, prompting calls from business groups for the government to curtail ambitions and focus more on growth initiatives. Spending as a share of output was already poised to settle at the highest levels since the early 1990s, even before any new measures. “I don’t know if it’s going to hit all the boxes that corporate Canada is looking to have checked off,” Hughes said.

When Freeland presented a budget update in December, the government was on track to post a $144.5 billion deficit in the fiscal year that ended March 31. That gap was set to gradually decline to $13.1 billion in 2026-27. Since then, multiple events have transpired that will result in both more revenue and higher spending. Inflation is generating major revenue windfalls, fueled in part by spiking energy prices due to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. But that war has in turn put pressure on Trudeau’s government to increase Canada’s defense spending. Last month, the Liberals signed a deal with the left-leaning New Democratic Party to ensure they can govern until 2025 in exchange for strengthening the social safety net, particularly around introducing publicly-funded programs for prescription drug and dental coverage. Government sources have told Bloomberg News the budget will include significant measures on housing affordability.

U.S. Congress votes to revoke Russia’s trade status, ban oil and gas imports following atrocities in Bucha

Ukraine’s Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba met with G-7 and NATO leaders in Brussels, one day after the U.S. announced new penalties on Russia that included a ban on all new investment in the country and sanctions on President Vladimir Putin’s daughters.

“I came here today to discuss three most important things: weapons, weapons, and weapons,” Kuleba said in a tweet.

Reports of rape and torture against civilians by Vladimir Putin’s forces drew strong condemnation from G-7 members, who voted to remove Russia from the U.N. Human Rights Council.

The atrocities also galvanized action in the U.S. where the Congress voted to strip Russia of its most favored nation trading status and to ban its oil and gas imports. U.S. President Joe Biden is expected to quickly sign both into law.

Hello QRB fam, from UK Bread. A quick general update on what we are digging for to try and narrow the timeframe on the WW pics.

We have found 3 different light decorations to use as micro markers to mark changes that occurred across the 45-day time period of the 2013 WW season.

Short and sweet, with pictorial and vidcap evidence we are starting to eliminate the month of November and first weeks of December by noting certain decorative lights seen in the Q pic of the roller coaster. The first marker is a light seen on the right ridge of a hip roof of a candy floss stand. This light, seen lit in the Q pic, is the third light from the eaves. We found the November pics show this light as unlit. And some early December pics show the lights on that side ridge are displaced (4DEC) and poss. temporarily removed pending repair as of (11DEC). Matches of this candy floss stand’s lights begin to be seen by 15DEC. Of note is rainy weather habbening on the 13th during the afternoon, but clearing by 8pm which would allow for that star being visible over the coaster in the Q pic, plus the still damp ground seen in the WW pics. My current fav is the 13th of DEC for reasons just mentioned, plus the lights on the XMAS GRILL stand which would, on the 13th, would have one moar lit light than the lights seen on the 15th.

Still looking and finding vids though, so haven’t yet eliminated the latter part of DEC. I will say one thing though. Q may have been giving us a hint to look in DEC when they asked, What event occurs in DEC in Hyde Park? Leaving some pics to show you guys what we are looking at. But remember we plan to chart it all out on a graph using all 3 reference points.

Cheers fam. Allspeed to you.

p.s. May add a few to give you an idea of how severely we scrutinize those vids.

'''Mkt Fag: What a hopeless hopium day for the NAS but it got by with a little "help from some (tech bounce) frens" edition

They were waiting for another "peace gonna break out" headline-all low volume drifting down except for the DOW that had a little respite but another big block trade at 10:00am (3.63m) and same thing on the SP500 at exact same time-21.45m. They simply have no idea wut to do...but they HAVE to do something. And then MAGICALLY (and mostly technically related to the 50/200 DMAs that were breached yesterday) the NAS/DOW/SP500 started it's ascent up at 12:48pm EST-all at the same time on literally nothing (or mebby they are gonna use the Supreme Court confirmation vote as that excuse)-can't have those consecutive down days or shit starts happening-leverage a bitch when it is constantly mistaken for "smarts"-and not disapponiting here either. And to muh surprise they all closed Green...../s. The last 15 minutes almost screwed the NAS from going green but they managed it...just

They even had some leakage into the biggest bull trap of the last year-DWAC green...imagine that...where are those pumpers nao? kek! "get it while you can"-they said when it was just under $75/sh-complete amateurs and if you din't see that coming you shouldn't be "in" the markets at all-those big buys at market in late January set the trap. Some one 'gave it up' right before the close though so we'll see how that gets treated tomorrow. https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/DWAC

Treasury yields have resumed the upward march after taking a pause with the 10s a full 10.5 basis points higher than the 2s at time of posting-see cap#3 and #4 for entire curve so SOLIDLY uninverted-figihting that yield inversion HARD now. It was a full 20bp higher earlier today. I wonder where all that "supply" came from (cough, reverse repos).-see below and the latest Fed head comment had much to do with that -The Fed has the yield curve in mind. Today, St Louis Fed James Bullard, a voter and the most hawkish Fed member said the Fed needs to hike 300 bps but also to watch yield curve inversion.

Metals having a decent day (after the smackdown it had in both yesterday and each dip being bought-still paper though-Ag premiums have never been this high for this long-not even in 2010-11. You had extended delivery times but you were NOT paying $40 for a Silver Eagle (avg. on low amounts purchased) That doesn't look likely to resolve itself anytime soon-this applies to most sovereign issued coins but premiums and availability are better on non U.S. mint coins-and have improved on generic silver rounds ala Bufalos. The walking liberty (eagle) market is ree-dick-u-lous at this point. Someone has already broken the physical Ag market but we don't know who yet. Au best day in a week but totally stuck in a long term range.

Speaking of breaking..looks like a big bet being placed on AMC short squeeze prior to it's Q1 earnings release on May 9th. Big buys in calls @ $51 strike for Apr 22 expiry.

Is the New York Fed’s Trading Floor Near the Futures Exchange in Chicago Behind the Erratic Gyrations in the Stock Market?

The Editor of Wall Street On Parade has been watching stock market trading patterns for more than three decades – 21 of those years at two Wall Street firms. A new pattern is emerging that strongly suggests there is an invisible hand flipping the market on a dime from a plunge in prices to a dramatic spike in prices. This could happen legitimately if sudden positive news broke, but it is happening regularly with no major news to explain the dramatic shift in sentiment-today being the most recent example see linky above for today's Mkt Report. The caps capture just four examples of what is becoming an increasingly familiar pattern in the Dow Jones Industrial Average.

On January 31 Wall Street On Parade reported that the New York Fed, which is the only one of the 12 regional Fed banks to have a trading floor – complete with those expensive Bloomberg data terminals and speed dials to Wall Street’s biggest trading houses – had decided for some reason after 100 years of operation that it needed a second trading floor in Chicago. What does Chicago have that New York does not have that might come in handy to those traders at the New York Fed? The Chicago office of the New York Fed sits close to the Chicago Mercantile Exchange where S&P 500 futures are traded, as well as other futures contracts. The closer one is to the computers that process those S&P 500 trades, the bigger the trading advantage.

Let’s say, hypothetically, that there are some large hedge funds that correctly sense that the Fed has created a market bubble that is going to explode now that the Fed has allowed inflation to get out of control and the Fed has to slam on the brakes with a rapid series of interest rate hikes. Those hedge funds might be looking to pounce on the market at the open by shorting (selling) S&P 500 futures in Chicago. To prevent these hedge funds from seeing this maneuver as an easy means of reaping windfall returns while driving the market lower and lower without resistance, the New York Fed, again hypothetically, might want to launch its own counteracting purchases of the S&P 500 futures contracts. This would produce what is known as a short squeeze, where the hedge funds have to quickly buy S&P 500 futures to cover the shorts they put on, turning the market on a dime and pushing it dramatically higher.

Certainly no one wants to see the stock market crash. But is it really the job of the central bank of the United States – which is tasked with setting monetary policy – to have an ever-expanding trading floor in two major trading hubs in the U.S. and traders duking it out with hedge funds?

Yakuza leader arrested in U.S. for drugs for missiles plot

A yakuza leader and three Thai associates have been arrested in New York for allegedly conspiring to obtain surface-to-air missiles for groups in Myanmar using narcotics as a payment, the U.S. Department of Justice announced Thursday.

A Drug Enforcement Administration investigation led to the arrest of Takeshi Ebisawa of Japan, dual U.S.-Thai citizen Suksan Jullanan and Sompak Rukrasaranee of Thailand on April 4. Somphop Singhasiri of Thailand was arrested on April 5.

"The drugs were destined for New York streets, and the weapons shipments were meant for factions in unstable nations. Members of this international crime syndicate can no longer put lives in danger and will face justice for their illicit actions," U.S. Attorney Damian Williams said in a news release.

The four men all face a maximum of life imprisonment for charges relating to international weapons and narcotics trafficking. Ebisawa, a leader within a Japanese transnational organized crime syndicate known as yakuza, has also been charged with money laundering.

The DEA investigation into Ebisawa's connections to narcotics and weapons trafficking had been ongoing since 2019 and spanned the globe. DEA offices across six countries and three continents were all involved, as was law enforcement in Japan, Thailand and Indonesia. U.S. officials allege that Ebisawa, Jullanan and Rukrasaranee conspired to broker the purchase from an undercover DEA agent of American-made surface-to-air missiles and other weaponry for multiple ethnic armed groups in Myanmar. The arms were said to have been taken from American military bases in Afghanistan. Ebisawa and Singhasiri, for partial payment of the weapons, then allegedly conspired to sell 500 kg of heroin and 500 kg of methamphetamine meant for distribution in New York.

"The expansive reach of transnational criminal networks, like the yakuza, presents a serious threat to the safety and health of all communities. Ebisawa and his associates intended to distribute hundreds of kilograms of methamphetamine and heroin to the United States, using deadly weapons to enable their criminal activities," DEA Administrator Anne Milgram said in the news release.

BOJ Is Likely to Adjust Policy as Soon as July, Ex-Official Says

The Bank of Japan is likely to adjust its control of yields as soon as this summer due to concerns about a weak yen and public discontent over inflation, according to a former BOJ executive director.

The view sharply contrasts with the stated position of Governor Haruhiko Kuroda, who has repeatedly said he will stick with stimulus even as the Federal Reserve and other central banks raise interest rates to tackle inflation. A string of unprecedented bond market interventions backed up his remarks last week. “They can’t keep doing this for that long,*” Hideo Hayakawa, a former director at the bank, said in an interview. “Market participants seem to think the BOJ won’t budge because Governor Kuroda sounds very firm but I don’t think that’s the case.”

*yes they can and will continue to do so-this is just someone being trotted out appearing to be responsible

Hayakawa’s remarks come after the central bank faced both market pressure on its upper limit on bond yields and a slide in the yen to its weakest level since 2015. While speculation persists among some traders that the BOJ will adjust policy to ensure its stimulus framework in the face of market pressure, most economists don’t expect a policy shift this year. Without changing its basic framework of monetary easing, the bank may widen its yield target band of 25 basis points either side of zero or shift its targeted yields to those of five years from 10 years, Hayakawa said. The move could take place as soon as the July policy meeting, he said.

A big factor that will spur the BOJ to change policy is the weakening of the yen, Hayakawa said. While the BOJ has repeatedly said the yen is positive for the economy overall, the impact is close to 50/50 and households’ discomfort is set to grow further as inflation picks up in Japan, too, said Hayakawa, who left the bank in 2013. Prime Minister Fumio Kishida has ordered his government to compile measures to cushion the economic pain of a rise in oil and daily necessities by the end of this month. It’s critical for him to keep public support in the lead up to elections this summer.

The BOJ should pay close attention to currency levels because its efforts to hold down interest rates are weakening the yen, a senior member of the Japanese ruling coalition party Komeito told Bloomberg. The yen is becoming delinked from economic fundamentals since real effective rates are already down to the lowest levels in decades* and the bank shouldn’t seek or try to weaken it more, he said.

*that is a nice way of saying they are negative-when adjusted for real inflation-and have been for many years
