Blinken says around 1,500 Americans remain in Afghanistan

 

There are around 1,500 Americans who are still in Afghanistan, Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Wednesday. Briefing reporters, Blinken said the U.S. has evacuated at least 4,500 U.S. citizens and probably more since Aug. 14. President Joe Biden on Tuesday declared he was sticking to his Aug. 31 deadline for completing an airlift of Americans, endangered Afghans and others seeking to escape Taliban-controlled Afghanistan.

Two Hedge Fund Billionaires Hedge their Bets on Regeneron as Florida Governor Ron DeSantis Opens Regeneron Treatment Centers for COVID-19 Across Florida

 

Billionaire hedge fund titan Ken Griffin’s Citadel Advisors has had a stake in the biotech company, Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, since at least December 31, 2011 – a decade ago. The same is true for billionaire Jeffrey Yass’ giant hedge fund, Susquehanna International Group. Both stakes have grown in size in recent years.

 

As of the most recent 13F SEC filing for Citadel Advisors for the quarter ending June 30, 2021, it and its related entities held a stake in Regeneron of long call options and common stock with a value of $189.7 million versus a short position of puts with a value of $188.5 million. As of its filing with the SEC for the quarter ending June 30, 2021, Susquehanna International Group reported a long position of common shares and calls of 1,116,127 shares valued at $623.4 million versus a short position of puts representing 1,102,800 shares valued at $615.95 million. It will be very interesting to see what both hedge funds report on their next 13F filings with the SEC for the quarter ending September 30, because something rather dramatic has happened since their last filing.

 

The Republican Governor of Florida, Ron DeSantis, is attempting to save his political career as Florida registers an average daily COVID-19 new case count of 21,263 and average daily hospitalizations of 17,225 – the worst in the United States. DeSantis is also battling school districts throughout his state who are defying his orders not to impose mask mandates in schools and to leave the decision up to parents.

 

In an effort to get out in front of growing COVID-19 cases and overtaxed hospitals, on August 12 DeSantis embarked on a plan to open treatment centers in counties throughout the state to provide a monoclonal antibody treatment made by Regeneron. The company’s stock has climbed 10 percent since that announcement on August 12. Since December 31, 2011, Regeneron is up 1000 percent versus 200 percent for the S&P 500 Index. Much of that move is explained by this reporting from Matt Herper and Ellie Kincaid in a July 26, 2018 article as Forbes. Herper and Kincaid write: β€œRegeneron, like other biotech firms, spends giant sums to find new cures, and it charges accordingly. Its big seller, the eye drug Eylea, costs $11,000 a year per eye. A newer Regeneron product, Dupixent, treats skin rashes; that one can run $37,000 a year. A cholesterol treatment costs $14,000 a year. Even more insane: These eye-catching prices really are cheap by pharma standards.”

 

So far, DeSantis has opened 18 Regeneron treatment centers around the state, including at libraries, parks and fairgrounds. DeSantis is quick to point out that the treatments are free to patients. That’s because the federal government has already paid for the treatments, shelling out $2.625 billion for 1.25 million doses on January 12 of this year. That works out to a cost to the taxpayer of $2100 per dose. That $2.625 billion transaction occurred just 8 days before President Trump left office. The $2100 cost per dose of Regeneron’s treatment compares to an estimated average cost of $50 per patient for two doses of the mRNA vaccines in the United States. The federal government also paid for those vaccine shots, making them free to patients. Republicans have been huge beneficiaries of political campaign contributions from both Ken Griffin and Jeff Yass. According to data at the Federal Election Commission (FEC), during the 2019-2020 election cycle, Griffin sent 21 checks of $1 million or more each to PACs and Super PACs working on behalf of, exclusively, Republicans. That included $37 million to the Senate Leadership Fund for Republicans.

2 of 2

Griffin made so many contributions to individual Republican candidates that we filtered the FEC data by looking at just the checks he wrote out for $1 million or more. That turned up a total of $61 million in just the 2019-2020 cycle for PACs and Super PACs working to elect Republicans. His total outlay on behalf of Republicans was millions of dollars more. Griffin is also a big donor to Republicans in Florida, including Ron DeSantis. State records show Griffin made the following contributions since 2018: $500,000 to Friends of Ron DeSantis on May 14, 2018; $250,000 to the same group on June 21, 2018; $5 million to the same group on October 3, 2018. On April 30 of this year, Griffin made another $5 million donation to Friends of Ron DeSantis. In addition, Griffin donated $500,000 to the Republican Party of Florida on October 14 of last year. On the same date, he donated another $500,000 to the Florida Republican Senatorial Campaign. Griffin’s hedge fund is located in Chicago. Why he is so interested in DeSantis and the Republican party of Florida is more than a little curious.

 

We found no similar contributions in Florida for Jeff Yass. However, the Center for Responsive Politics reports that Yass donated $28.8 million to SuperPacs supporting right-wing Republicans in the 2019-2020 election cycle. That included some members of Congress who refused to certify the election for Joe Biden after their states had already done so.

SARS-CoV-2-specific T cell immunity in cases of COVID-19 and SARS, and uninfected controls (mid 2020)

 

Abstract

Memory T cells induced by previous pathogens can shape susceptibility to, and the clinical severity of, subsequent infections1. Little is known about the presence in humans of pre-existing memory T cells that have the potential to recognize severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Here we studied T cell responses against the structural (nucleocapsid (N) protein) and non-structural (NSP7 and NSP13 of ORF1) regions of SARS-CoV-2 in individuals convalescing from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) (n = 36). In all of these individuals, we found CD4 and CD8 T cells that recognized multiple regions of the N protein. Next, we showed that patients (n = 23) who recovered from SARS (the disease associated with SARS-CoV infection) possess long-lasting memory T cells that are reactive to the N protein of SARS-CoV17 yearsafter the outbreak of SARS in 2003; these T cells displayed robust cross-reactivity to the N protein of SARS-CoV-2.

Queensland quarantine facility to be built by mid-2022

 

The Queensland government has given the federal government the green light to move forward with the construction of its proposed quarantine facility at Pinkenba.

 

Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk signed a memorandum of understanding with the commonwealth on Friday.

 

Deputy Premier Steven Miles said that once the facility has been built, the Queensland government would provide it with services.

 

β€œThe Queensland government continues to work collaboratively with the Commonwealth to further the Federal Government’s proposal for a quarantine facility at the Damascus Barracks,” he said on Monday.

 

β€œFollowing countless breaches from the nation’s hotel quarantine system it’s clear there is an urgent need for more fit-for-purpose quarantine facilities throughout Australia. With NSW and Victoria in lockdown, we cannot afford more leaks from hotel quarantine.”

 

The proposed facility, which would be located on the 30-hectare Damascus Barracks in Pinkenba, would house 1000 beds. Located near Brisbane Airport, the facility would be constructed by mid-2022.

 

Miles noted that the site was selected by the commonwealth Department of Finance based on its size, its proximity to an international airport and hospitals, and because it is commonwealth-owned. He said the state government was also in support of a regional quarantine facility at Wellcamp airport, near Toowoomba, in order to reduce the use of hotel quarantine.

 

β€œUntil all Australians have been offered a vaccination, quarantine facilities will remain Australia’s frontline in preventing deadly new strains of COVID-19 from entering our community,” Miles said.

...

 

1000 beds?

Good luck with that amount.

For The First Time Ever China Is Seeking Foreign Buyers For Its Municipal Bonds

 

While Beijing has been "encouraging" private companies to aggressively cut debt in the past year - and nowhere more so than at China's largest real-estate developer, Evergrande, whose bonds have cratered in recent weeks amid fears the forced deleveraging will push the company and its $300 billion in debt into a death spiral - China's local governments have more than doubled bond sales to roll over maturing debt this year, helping to ease their repayment risk.

 

As Bloomberg reported back in July, cities and provinces sold about 1.9 trillion yuan ($293 billion) of so-called refinancing bonds in the first six months of the year. That’s a sharp increase from about 700 billion yuan sold in the same period of 2020, and 660 billion yuan in 2019. These "refinancing" bonds are sold to replace maturing securities, reducing pressure on local authorities to pay back the debt. China's refinancing scramble is just beginning: β€œThe amount of debt due will keep growing, so the scale of refinancing isn’t likely to fall,” said Ding Shuang, chief economist for Greater China and North Asia at Standard Chartered Plc in Hong Kong. β€œThat’s the case unless policy makers seriously look to reduce the absolute value of the debt, which is unlikely.”

He's right you know-this is just warming up

 

Meanwhile, local governments have slowed the pace of special bond sales used to finance spending on infrastructure like highways and houses, in part due to a lack of quality projects and Beijing’s stronger focus on debt control. Infrastructure investment contracted in May from a year earlier, and probably continued to decline in June and July due to a higher base from a year ago, according to economists at China International Capital Corp. They see investment growth rebounding after that to reach about 3.5% for the full year. But with China's economic growth slowing drastically, it is inevitable that China would have to boost its fiscal stimulus, meaning many more bonds will be issued, it's just a matter of time. Indeed, at the start of July, government-linked economists cited by the state-run China Securities Journal said fiscal spending may increase in the second half of the year. "Along with the economic recovery becoming more and more solid, fiscal revenue will gradually return to the normal level, and fiscal spending will maintain its due growth rate," the newspaper quoted He Daixin as saying. He is director of the Public Finance Research Department at the National Academy of Economic Strategy, a unit of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.

Cap#2 is China's Debt Service Ratio from March 2021

#3 is overall Debt-to-GDP from June

There was just one problem with this approach: as a result of the recent turmoil in the domestic bond market, demand for more government debt - at least among domestic buyers - appears to be fading, so China is doing the obvious thing: it is looking for foreign buyers. Fast forward to today when as Bloomberg updates, China's so-called Dim Sum bond market - in which a renminbi-denominated bond is sold to foreign buyers - is about to get a new kind of issuer: local Chinese governments. In a first for the $77 billion offshore yuan bond market, Shenzhen city government is seeking underwriters for an offering of up to 5 billion yuan ($771 million), according to a statement Tuesday. Guangdong province is also planning such a sale in Macau, without giving the size. While relatively small, and serving as a trial balloon to test foreign investor demand, such tenders will help pave the way for more regular, and far larger issuance, giving international investors more yuan-denominated assets to add to their portfolios, said Frances Cheung, rates strategist at Oversea-Chinese Banking Corp in Singapore. Assuming they want such exposure, of course.

 

Meanwhile, overall offshore yuan debt sales are on track for the highest since 2015. Appetite was helped by tighter monetary policy in China earlier this year coupled with relatively easy money in the U.S., causing the cost to swap the Chinese currency into dollars to drop. Coming at a time when there is widespread revulsion to Chinese equities (which not long ago were viewed by most hedge funds as alpha panacea), the nation’s finance ministry has sought to expand its bond issuance channels from the interbank market to retail investors and now offshore, because apparently even local retail demand is sliding. Luckily for Beijing, there are plenty greater fools offshore, and overseas investors’ holdings of onshore local debt has increased significantly by nearly 80% this year as of July.

 

There is another reason why China is targeting dumb foreign investors to fund its fiscal stimulus (similar to what the Treasury does, only there the Fed funds the bulk of it): the proposed offshore sales come amid concerns of a surge in local government bond sales onshore, as Chinese authorities pledge more support for the economy. Worries about surging supply continue to haunt the nation’s sovereign bond market. The proposed offshore sales won’t be large enough to alleviate those pressures, added Cheung. Though foreign buyers already have access to onshore local government bonds, an offshore offering could attract more global funds, said Ming Ming, analyst at Citic Securities.

 

Bottom line: the US - with its massive current account deficit - used to rely on China to fund its growth (back before the Fed stepped in and is monetizing 100% of all US bond issuance), and now it's China's turn to return the favor.

Thinking about this yesterday.

The "It's a Play" "Play a Game" (but its not a game ) served / serves to insulate us from despondency?

Not appropriate in context of the injured?

Agreed

However, "It's (likely) Too Big" to take in all suffering. That's the job for holy King Jesus.

Impossible to "take-in" all the lost opportunity and deliberate cruelty, with its human (animal and nature an everything else) results.

If you care about "everything" ( as the "liberals" pretend,) you end up emptied, caring for nothing instead - is the ol clichΓ©;, since it's all just too big? Too large for one limited human.. we all have our gaps?

We are little. God is Big.

Some could say this vid linked above is in poor taste.

Took a while after the event for that to come out. Took a lot of study by a lot of people, distilled into (dark) humor.

?

If you've been attacked while trying to bring the truth out, and have been denied and exiled from your own society as a result; you deserve to take a light approach every so often?

The "Don't upset the Families" was the refrain which served to shut-up people; those who saw what was going on.

That line was used as a weapon

"Don't say that you'll upset the families"

or even "How Dare You." the ploy by the Clintons.

The Cabal will get the families to attack the truth seekers, as was done in the Seth Rich case?

How could asking questions hurt the victims ?More than what has been done to them by the Culprits..?

It doesn't

Quite the opposite. Some victims prefer to know.

Only the perps want you to shut-up,

Just because you're trying to bring it out.

No one stops the victims from living in denial if they so choose. In fact denial is the way a being protects itself from what it cannot take.

But that stops at my free speech.

"Nobody has to know" if they don't want to.

No one is forcing anyone.

And of course shills take the "It's all a Play" too far and claim "No one died" "It's all Fake" to enflame the emotions of those who are blind to everything but the tragic content.

And to cast shade, mis-represent and discredit the actual researchers

[yawn. old trick. And a good one.. That's why it's used over and over and over.]

Should we be distracted from our job by the tragedy / sadness?

? Go along to get Along?

Or are we in danger of being submerged by the difficult material we study?

People are only "allowed" to feel bad on socially approved subjects?

Do anons suffer any less than others because they bother to study things? Or because they have a specific (positive) mental attitude - which was deliberately induced / nurtured/ supported by the Q Team communications?

Isn't that part of what Military Commanders are supposed to do ..? Inspire their team?

 

without humor, "levening" doesn't everything become more overwhelming?

(spelled leavening wrong

sorry)

 

Doesn't "humour" relate to flavors.. in aesthetic theory.

"The term derives from the humoral medicine of the ancient Greeks, which taught that the balance of fluids in the human body, known as humours (Latin: humor, "body fluid"), controlled human health and emotion."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humour

 

The humors / humours influence the health?

Yes, it's a massive drama; worthy of Shakspeare or King James.

We are all the audience.. And actors.

Some write scripts? Some decorate the Sets (meme creation) Some provide the soundtrack. We are the Greek Chorus for the Tragedy.

Meanwhile many people seem to not give much of a fuck.. Not my problem.

We should feel reverence for those who sacrificed. They should be our holy Heroes as Trump explains.

So I'm allowed a dark laugh every now and then? as the Russians were said to enjoy in order to defy ? their oppressors?

anons usually lack feelings around "what people think?" Isn't that an "autistic" quality?

Isn't that also a strength because, then, you have the power to look beyond your feelz?

We feel, as is natural to us, around the victims.. but that is something that rejects compulsion, it's freely given. Like love.

The heli were too busy running the FCS merge with Media coverage,, And then triggering the dustification of the Towers?

The shill denied she even existed.

'It's all fake"

They claimed she was CGI, the ultimate insult? To deny her existence entirely.

They loved to tease with mean and cruel spirit the video fakery researchers with that, alleged fakery "Edna Cintron" with all the power money and support by the insiders gave them, thought some made short contact with her family and verified she was real..

It's a massive drama, sons.

Have you ever enjoyed "Gone With the Wind" ?

a tragedy

or any other tragic drama?

Such "enjoyment" is said, by the ancients, to bring "Catharsis" ? Purging. Vomiting. Cleaning. ? Purifying of the emotions.?

So they claimed.

In the ancient world theatre was considered part of religion.

Notice the "Hollywood" movie houses back in the day, were done up like Temples?

The aesthetic experience / appreciation is different from psychopathic indifference.. ?Qualitatively different?

The ancient philosophers of India also disclaimed "it's a Play"?

"Tragedy with distance......."

When the distance is too short it's time to stay quiet out of respect for the suffering? How long are we supposed to have the affect of morticians?

Some people even laugh through it all?

Torturers don't like to hear that.

Caldor Fire update

 

Smoke fills the sky over Lake Tahoe as crews fight to keep Caldor Fire from closing in

 

Thousands of California firefighters battled Wednesday to halt the advance of a fierce blaze creeping perilously closer to iconic Lake Tahoe.

 

The edge of the Caldor Fire was less than 15 miles southwest of the lake, according to data from NOAA’s GOES satellite published by Google. The wildfire, which has gutted hundreds of homes, was tearing through timberland and was "knocking on the door" of the Tahoe Lake basin, California’s state fire chief Thom Porter said.

 

The freshwater lake, with its stretch of picturesque beaches, crystal-clear water, rocky shorelines and stunning landscapes in the Sierra Nevada, is a popular destination. But on Tuesday, visitors were pelted by ash and a haze of suffocating air clogged the sky.

 

The fire, which was 11% contained, has scorched 126,182 acres as of Wednesday, Cal Fire said. At least 461 homes have been destroyed and another 17,000 structures were at risk since the blaze started Aug. 14.

 

On the western side of the fire, a dozen small communities and wineries were threatened, fire officials said. On the eastern side, crews bulldozed fire lines, opened up narrow logging roads and cleared ridgetops.

1.6m Moderna doses withdrawn in Japan over contamination

 

Company confirms reports of particulate matter in vials, but finds 'no safety issues'

 

About 1.6 million doses of Moderna's coronavirus vaccine have been taken out of use in Japan because of contamination reported in some vials, the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare said early Thursday. Several vaccination centers have reported that vaccine vials contained foreign matter, according to an announcement from the ministry, which added it will seek to minimize the impact of the withdrawal on the country's inoculation program. Takeda Pharmaceutical handles distribution of the U.S.-developed Moderna vaccine in Japan.

 

Nasdaq-listed Moderna confirmed receiving "several complaints of particulate matter" in vaccine vials distributed in Japan but said it had found "no safety or efficacy issues" related to these reports. "The company is investigating the reports and remains committed to working transparently and expeditiously with its partner, Takeda, and regulators to address any potential concerns," a Moderna spokesperson told Nikkei, saying the drugmaker believed a "manufacturing issue" at a plant in Spain was the cause. The vaccine lot in question and two adjacent lots have been put on hold "out of an abundance of caution," the spokesperson said. The ministry has not halted the use of Moderna vaccines in other batches, deeming them safe.

 

The Moderna vaccine was granted emergency-use authorization in Japan in May.

Takeda Receives $38 Million Grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to Support Polio Eradication in Developing Countries

 

Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited [TSE: 4502], (β€œTakeda”) today announced a partnership with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to support global polio eradication in developing countries. With this funding, Takeda will develop, license and supply at least 50 million doses per year of Sabin-strain inactivated poliovirus vaccine (sIPV) to more than 70 developing countries. The vaccine will be manufactured at Takeda’s facility in Hikari, Japan. This effort is aligned with Takeda’s strategy to utilize innovation and partnerships to address critical unmet needs in global public health, and the Sustainable Development Goals adopted by the United Nations in September 2015. Christophe Weber, President and CEO of Takeda said: β€œTakeda is honored to partner with the Gates Foundation to support the polio endgame. This represents a major commitment by a Japanese company to the health of children in developing countries around the world.” Under the terms of the agreement, the Gates Foundation will provide a $38 million grant to Takeda to leverage its innovative vaccine manufacturing platform to develop and license a safe and effective Sabin-strain inactivated polio vaccine, and make at least 50 million doses per year available at an affordable price for developing countries receiving Gavi support. Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, brings together public and private sectors with the shared goal of creating equal access to new and underused vaccines for children living in the world’s poorest countries. Takeda’s sIPV was originally licensed from the Japan Polio Research Institute, which is now a part of BIKEN.

"He was known for routines that poked fun at the Taliban through song and dance, including some that were uploaded to his TikTok account.

 

In the video of his final moments, Mohammad continues to make jokes about the group after his capture, causing the Taliban fighter to his right to begin slapping him across the face.

 

The man to his left is seen laughing throughout before menacingly switching his gun for an even bigger-looking firearm. "

Judge sanctions Sidney Powell and other Trump campaign lawyers over failed lawsuit

 

A federal judge on Wednesday sanctioned attorneys including Sidney Powell, an ex-campaign lawyer for former President Trump who spread baseless conspiracy theories, over an unsuccessful lawsuit that attempted to overturn Michigan’s 2020 election results.

 

Why it matters: U.S. District Judge Linda Parker formally requested a disciplinary body to investigate whether Powell and the other pro-Trump lawyers, including Lin Wood, should be disbarred for filing the lawsuit, which she said "abused the well-established rules applicable to the litigation process by proffering claims not backed by law."

 

Parker last December dropped the lawsuit that alleged widespread fraud in the state because she found that it was based on β€œspeculation and conjecture," according to AP.

 

Parker required that Powell, Wood and the other lawyers pay the legal fees associated with the lawsuit and attend classes on the ethical requirements for filing lawsuits.

 

What they're saying: "It is one thing to take on the charge of vindicating rights associated with an allegedly fraudulent election," Parker wrote in an order on Wednesday.

 

"It is another to take on the charge of deceiving a federal court and the American people into believing that rights were infringed, without regard to whether any laws or rights were in fact violated. This is what happened here," she added.

 

"This lawsuit should never have been filed. The State Defendants and the Intervenor-Defendants should never have had to defend it."

 

The big picture: Rudy Giuliani, Trump's former personal attorney, was suspended from practicing law in New York after he made false statements about the 2020 election to courts, lawmakers and the public.

 

Powell, Giuliani and MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell also face multibillion-dollar defamation lawsuits from Dominion, a voting equipment company. The lawsuits allege that the pro-Trump figures made false claims of election fraud that defamed Dominion.

Tensions Flare Over $7 Trillion Currency Market’s Trade Dropouts

 

An end to the global currency market’s four-year quest to crack down on a controversial trading practice that allows dealers to back out of transactions if prices move against them looks further away than ever.

 

The committee overseeing a voluntary code of conduct in a market worth nearly $7 trillion a day released new guidelines on so-called last look earlier this month, but these principles have only stoked a new wave of pushback from traders frustrated at their framing. Liquidity provider XTX Markets, a member of the Global Foreign Exchange Committee’s working group on last look, critiqued the consultative process and labeled the paper a missed opportunity to settle the issue.Last look is akin to trying to pay for food at a grocery store, but being told the store won’t sell it to you at the price listed on the shelf. In foreign exchange, the bedrock of global finance and commerce, dealers sometimes say they’ll buy or sell a currency at a certain price, but after a trader accepts that bid or offer, the dealer backs out.

 

Some are going as far as to imagine the almost unthinkable: foreign exchange, a notoriously lightly-regulated business that’s seen so much scandal over the years, may need more formal external oversight. In the 2017 FX Global Code, a voluntary list of best practices for currency trading, last look got some standards but was not banned. Vanguard Group Inc. didn’t sign the code for years because it wanted stronger restrictions, though the $7.2 trillion asset manager finally relented in 2020. This month, currency traders filed a class-action lawsuit against Goldman Sachs & Co. and State Street Bank & Trust Co. that included allegations the liquidity providers were given last-look rights, allowing them to unilaterally cancel matched trades. Buy-side firms have repeatedly expressed concerns dealers could be ripping them off.

 

The Global Foreign Exchange Committee issued additional guidelines in a paper last week after last look received the most feedback in the group’s market surveys on how to improve industry rules. It’s intended to complement Principle 17 of the FX Global Code, which addresses the practice. Last look should be applied in a β€œfair and predictable manner,” according to the new GFXC document. The practice should be used only to ensure there is sufficient available credit to close the transaction, and that the price at which the request was made remains consistent with the current level. Liquidity providers should apply these checks without delay and β€œpromptly” decide whether to accept or reject trades. The committee is also β€œstrongly encouraging” liquidity providers to fill out disclosure sheets on their last-look practices. Some industry players say the latest guidelines fall short because even though they recommend dealers disclose the time window they need to confirm the trade, there’s no precise guidance on how long that window should be. Dealers can also pull out of trades if market prices move against them, but not when prices move by a similar amount in their favor. β€œObviously the liquidity providers should not be going out of their way to rip off customers, but at the same time we’re trying to give customers the information and the tools in a comparable way to assess how they’re being treated,” Guy Debelle, chair of the GFXC, said in a phone interview. He added the working group doesn’t get a final say over Global FX Code regulations. β€œWe’re going to keep an eye on this, and if this message isn’t getting through well enough, then we may need to revisit the actual wording of the principle itself,” he said.

 

The debate lasted years, likely a byproduct of GFXC’s consensus-based approach. That’s prompting some, including LMAX’s Mercer, to contemplate a more formal regulatory structure. β€œGoing back decades there has been an honor in the market and that’s what the code is trying to be: an honor-driven code,” Mercer said. β€œBut the alternative is regulation. I think it would be tough to regulate, but not impossible.”

US Indo-Pacific Command's Chief Concerned Over China's Intent Behind Military Expansion

 

Speaking at Observer Research Foundation event, Admiral John C Aquilino, head of the US Indo-Pacific Command, showed concern over China's military expansion. Head of the US Indo-Pacific Command Admiral John C Aquilino on Wednesday expressed concern over China's military expansion which is being termed as the largest military build-up in history since the second world war.

 

Aquilino expressed apprehensions over Beijing's larger aircraft carrier programmes while speaking at an Observer Research Foundation event on "The India-US Partnership: Securing the 21st Century" in New Delhi"

 

"Entire Chinese way forward with regard to military expansion, the largest military build-up in history since WWII, both conventional and nuclear in all domains. I don't think I will try to explain what their intent is but trying to understand their intent is a little concern," said Admiral Aquilino. He said that the Chinese aircraft carrier programme has seen the largest growth and what they intend to do with much larger carriers is definitely a matter of concern.". Aquilino also went on to say that the articulation of defensive capabilities is what the world continue to hear and it has also been seen that words from the People's Liberation Army do not meet their deeds, which makes things more worrisome. However, Chief of Defense Staff General Bipin Rawat also expressed India's concerns over the increasing nuclear arsenal of northern as well as western neighbours.

Biden is destroying America. His policies have created a living national nightmare: he’s surrendered our energy independence, sabotaged the economy, surged violent crime, caved to China, crushed our citizens instead of the virus, created the single greatest humiliation in our history in Afghanistan, stranded thousands of our citizens overseas at the whim of Islamic extremists, and left a wide-open border to deadly drugs, vicious crime, and unlimited illegal immigration at home!

 

 

I created the most secure border in history. Biden has created the single most catastrophic border disaster in historyβ€”by far. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, whom I strongly endorsed for reelection, has just won a major Supreme Court victory against the Biden Open Borders agenda. I congratulate him on this win. Biden was found to have broken the law in terminating the Migrant Protection Protocols, or Remain in Mexico. Now, Biden must reinstate Remain in Mexico, one of my most successful and important programs in securing the border. Other State Attorneys General should follow suit and go after every one of Biden’s unlawful border and immigration policies.

FBI Raids Detroit City Hall And Homes Of Council Members In Corruption Probe

 

https://dailycaller.com/2021/08/25/detroit-city-hall-council-homes-fbi-raid-corruption/

 

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has executed search warrants at Detroit City Hall and the homes of two city council members in relation to a federal corruption investigation.

 

The FBI executed search warrants at the homes of Detroit council members JaneΓ© Ayers and Scott Benson and offices at the Coleman A. Young Municipal Center on Wednesday, Fox News reported. Charges have previously been filed against another council member, AndrΓ© Spivey, for corruption stemming from bribery payments of upwards of $35,000, according to Fox News.

 

UPDATE: The raid at Detroit Councilwoman JaneΓ© Ayers’ home comes 3 years after her name emerged in a sealed FBI wiretap affidavit I obtained. The affidavit outlined a probe targeting towing titan Gasper Fiore, aka the β€œBaron of Bribery” https://t.co/dj1TxYlQyj via @detroitnews

 

β€” Robert Snell (@robertsnellnews) August 25, 2021

 

β€œThe citizens of Detroit have a right to a city government that’s free of corruption,” Timothy Waters, the special agent in charge of the FBI’s office in Detroit, told the Detroit News following the raids. (RELATED: Council Member In Cleveland Charged With Theft Of Federal Program, Falsification Of Records)

 

Agents reportedly did not raid Mayor Mike Duggan’s office or executive suite, according to the Detroit News, but did collect evidence from other offices that will reportedly be presented to the U.S. Attorney’s office.

 

β€œClearly, there is a culture of corruption that doesn’t stop at the city line or the county line,” Erik Gordon, a professor for the University of Michigan’s Ross Business School, told the Detroit News.

As of Wednesday afternoon, no charges have been filed against Ayers, Benson, or any other council members in relation to the raids, according to the Detroit News.

 

In 2010, Detroit’s city government was the subject of national headlines after then-Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick was charged with corruption after it was discovered that he had taken hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes from a little-known city contractor. He resigned in September of 2008.

Thing is: If an Institution has done a lot of crime and never been caught; and never had to face consequences, why would they stop?

Did Bidan ask them nicely to stop, as he did the Taliban?
