Confirmed at Trial: President Trump Offered Julian Assange Deal If He Shared Who His Source Was for Podesta Emails — And It Wasn’t Russia!

 

President Trump offered Julian Assange a deal if he were to disclose his source of the DNC emails released before the 2016 election.

 

Julian Assange did not share who provided him the DNC emails he leaked before the 2016 election but he did unequivocally claim that it wasn’t a state actor (i.e. Russia).

 

This entire lie – that Russia hacked the DNC and provided the hacked emails to Assange and WikiLeaks – was the driver behind the Trump-Russia collusion narrative and the Mueller investigation.

 

We didn’t find out until May 2020 that the owner of Crowdstike stated under oath that he could not prove that Russia hacked the DNC and provided these hacked emails to WikiLeaks. This was because Democrat Adam Schiff prevented the release of these emails which would prove him a liar after stating for years that this is what happened.

 

On March 8, 2020 and before on June 16, 2019, we presented arguments against the Mueller gang’s assertion that the DNC was hacked by Russians.

 

Cyber expert Yaacov Apelbaum posted an incredible report with information basically proving that the DNC was not hacked by the Russians.

 

So we knew this, but we never knew conclusively who provided the emails to WikiLeaks.

 

Today it was reported in a British Court that the President of the US attempted to get this information from Assange. The Daily Mail reports:

 

Donald Trump offered Julian Assange a ‘win-win’ deal to avoid extradition if he disclosed the source behind leaked Democratic party emails, a court heard today.

 

Jennifer Robinson, one the lawyer’s representing the WikiLeaks founder, said Republican Congressman Dana Rohrabacher and Trump associate Charles Johnson acted as conduits for the President to tout an arrangement.

 

They said Assange, 49, would be left alone to ‘get on with his life’ if he revealed the DNC hacking source, which was of ‘value’ to Mr Trump, Ms Robinson claimed.

 

The Daily Mail further reported:

 

Ms Robinson said Mr Rohrabacher said he had come to London to talk to Assange about ‘what might be necessary to get him out’ and presented him with a ‘win-win situation’ which would allow him to leave the embassy and ‘get on with his life’ without fear of extradition to the US.

 

She said: ‘The proposal put forward by Congressman Rohrabacher was that Mr Assange identify the source for the 2016 election publications in return for some kind of pardon, assurance or agreement which would both benefit President Trump politically and prevent US indictment and extradition.

 

Note that there is no mention whether Assange cut the deal with President Trump or not.

Victoria police could arrest people who ‘MIGHT’ breach Covid lockdown under proposed bill

 

A proposal allowing police to preemptively lock up those they believe “might” violate coronavirus lockdown measures has gone before the Victoria state parliament, with many fearing it opens the door to unprecedented abuses.

 

If passed, the law would allow police to indefinitely detain any Victoria resident who either tests positive for Covid-19 or is a close contact of someone who has, as long as the officer believes they are “likely to refuse or fail to comply” with quarantine regulations. The state’s parliament began hearings on Thursday but has not issued a public decision as of Friday.

 

Even more ominously, the law would allow the state’s departmental secretary to appoint any public servant they consider “appropriate” to also exercise the new pre-crime detention powers, based solely on the secretary’s personal judgment.

 

The legislation extends many of Victoria’s emergency provisions until next April, meaning the police (and their newly appointed civilian cronies) would retain their “pre-crime” powers even if the pandemic used to justify them is long gone.

 

Mentally ill, drug-addicted, or homeless Victoria residents can also be confined in hotels for two weeks as a precaution under the proposed law. Several news reports suggest the bill will allow police to preemptively detain “conspiracy theorists” – and while that term is not actually spelled out in the text itself, “wrongthink” social media postings have already been used by Victoria police as a rationale for detaining otherwise-innocent Australians.

 

Pregnant mother-of-two Zoe Lee Buhler was arrested in her home earlier this month for “incitement” after she posted on Facebook about a protest in the small town of Ballarat, despite specifying the demonstration would be nonviolent and adhere to all mask-wearing and social distancing regulations. Video of her arrest, which went viral, shows her pleading with cops to be allowed to delete the post rather than be hauled off in cuffs in front of her two young children.

 

While Buhler has demanded an apology from Victoria Premier Daniel Andrews, he defended his officers' actions, while admitting he hadn't actually seen the video of her arrest. Protests across the state have grown in number despite heavy-handed police repression, with Andrews' political opposition emboldened by the uprising of anti-lockdown sentiment.

 

Victoria’s lockdown is already the most intense outside the measures imposed in Wuhan, China in the early days of the pandemic. Police have been given permission to enter homes without a warrant, and Melbourne residents are under a strict curfew.

The Soros Cover-Up

 

Newt Gingrich

 

Americans can’t let Twitter noise overwhelm political reality.

 

I have been watching a truly curious phenomenon over the past few days.

 

It seems there is suddenly a movement in media to silence anyone who speaks out against George Soros—and, specifically, his funding of radical prosecutors seeking to change the criminal justice system by simply ignoring certain crimes.

 

This happened to me personally this week while I was being interviewed on Fox’s Outnumbered. When I brought up Soros’s plan to get pro-criminal, anti-police prosecutors elected across the country, two of the show’s participants interrupted me and forcefully asserted that Soros was not involved.

 

Host Harris Faulkner, it seemed, was stunned by the interruptions, and did her part to move the show forward after some awkward silence. The next day, she addressed the strange moment during the show and condemned censorship.

 

Immediately after the show, Twitter and other social media went crazy. People were alleging that any criticism of Soros’s political involvement is automatically false, anti-Semitic, or both.

 

This is ludicrous. Soros’s plan to elect these prosecutors has been well documented already—and it has nothing to do with his spiritual or ethnic background. The Los Angeles Times, the New York Times, Politico, USA Today, the Washington Post, the Wall Street Journal, the Associated Press, CBS, the South Florida Sun-Sentinel—even Fox News itself, among others, have all thoroughly reported on it.

 

There are plenty of specific examples of Soros’s work in action.

 

Dallas County District Attorney John Creuzot, who campaigned on the promise that he would not prosecute a host of crimes—including thefts—admitted his campaign was largely funded through Soros or his groups. He has been so dismissive of crime and police that Texas Governor Greg Abbott has had to send in the Texas State Patrol to police large swaths of Dallas.

 

Soros gave $333,000 to the Safety and Justice PAC in 2016 to support then-Cook County District Attorney candidate Kim Foxx in Illinois—who is currently presiding over terrible violence and mayhem in Chicago, where murders are twice what they were in 2019.

Feds launch investigation into Princeton 'based on its admitted racism'

 

In July, hundreds of faculty wrote an open letter to Princeton University President Christopher Eisgruber calling for him to take anti-racist action.

Eisgruber responded with an open letter saying racism was “embedded” in the institution and his plans to “combat systemic racism.”

Now, the Education Department has opened an investigation into the university regarding possible violations of Title VI.

 

The Department of Education has launched an investigation into Princeton University following a controversial open letter from University President Christopher Eisgruber claiming racism is “embedded” in the institution.

 

According to a letter obtained by the Washington Examiner, the admission “raises concerns” about possible violations of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. It states that "no person in the United States shall, on the ground of race, color, or national origin, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance." The authenticity of the letter was confirmed by a Department of Education spokesperson to Campus Reform.

"the U.S. Department of Education (“Department”) is concerned Princeton’s nondiscrimination and equal opportunity assurances in its Program Participation Agreements from at least 2013 to the present may have been false"

 

[RELATED: Princeton prof challenges university's 'systemic racism' narrative]

 

Meanwhile, Princeton has received tens of millions of dollars in federal funding. The main point of contention is if the university, in accordance with receiving federal funds, lied in its promise to not uphold racist standards.

 

"Based on its admitted racism, the U.S. Department of Education ('Department') is concerned Princeton’s nondiscrimination and equal opportunity assurances in its Program Participation Agreements from at least 2013 to the present may have been false," the letter read. "The Department is further concerned Princeton perhaps knew, or should have known, these assurances were false at the time they were made.”

 

[RELATED: Princeton removes Woodrow Wilson's name, but students want more]

 

The Department of Education sent a formal records request to pursue this investigation. The department is seeking what evidence the university used to determine it is racist, all records in relation to the President’s letter, and a spreadsheet identifying those subjected to discrimination. In addition, under oath, the president and a designated representative will sit for interviews and the school must respond to written questioning.

 

The president’s letter with plans to “combat systemic racism” was in response to a July letter from hundreds of faculty members demanding he take anti-racist action.

 

[RELATED: Students demand Princeton 'ban the use of unpaid labor by faculty']

 

However, his words were met by criticism by other faculty members.

 

Campus Reformreported that one Mathematics professor, Sergiu Klainerman, stated in a Newsweekop-ed, “Princeton is not in the least racist.”

 

Campus Reform reached out to Princeton University for a statement but did not hear back in time for publication.

Israel becomes 1st country to start a 2nd NATIONWIDE lockdown over coronavirus

 

A second lockdown came into force in Israel on Friday amid a resurgence in new coronavirus cases. The new restrictions will last three weeks, according to the government.

 

The first lockdown was imposed across Israel in late March and eased in May as new cases tapered off, reaching single-digit lows. But in the past week, new cases have reached daily highs of more than 5,000. The new lockdown, which began at the onset of the high-holiday season, coincides with the start of the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashana, traditionally a time for large family gatherings. Amid new restrictions, residents have been forced to stay mostly at home.

 

The new rules were approved overnight by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s cabinet. Israelis must stay within 1,000 meters of their home, but there are exceptions for commuting to workplaces that will operate on a limited basis.

 

Social distancing and limits on the number of worshippers were also ordered at synagogues, usually packed for Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur, the Jewish Day of Atonement, which this year begins on September 27.

 

Traveling will be permitted to purchase food or other essentials, to receive medical treatment or obtain social welfare services. During the lockdown, schools and preschools will be closed and will switch to distance learning.

 

Any business that receives members of the public – except for those providing essential services – will also be closed. Other private sector businesses will remain open, while the public sector will be operating at half capacity. Buses will limit the number of passengers and trains will operate with an empty seat between each passenger.

 

On Sunday, the cabinet expressed its intent to place some restrictions on protests, including possibly limiting them to 1,000 meters from protesters’ homes, but currently demonstrations are permitted without any restrictions, Haaretz reported.

 

Since the outbreak began, 1,169 people have died in the country of 9 million. Many Israelis have protested against the government’s handling of the coronavirus crisis. Authorities have said they lifted initial measures taken against the spread of the pandemic too soon, but the move to reimpose sweeping restrictions may anger residents struggling amid an economic downturn.

Trump will ban US downloads of Chinese apps TikTok & WeChat starting September 20

 

People in the United States will be barred from downloading TikTok, a video sharing app, and WeChat, a popular messenger, starting on September 20, the commerce department said in a press release.

 

The US will not force current American users to stop using the apps, but would instead prevent them from installing updates, Reuters reported.

 

Washington will also order Apple, Google and other firms to make the apps unavailable on their platforms within the United States. However, the commerce department will not prevent these companies from offering the Chinese apps to users outside the US.

 

Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross said in a statement on Friday that the bans would “guarantee our national security and protect Americans from the threats of the Chinese Communist Party.” He claimed that the Chinese-owned apps “collect vast swaths of data from users” and “are subject to mandatory cooperation with the intelligence services of the CCP.”

 

The prohibitions against TikTok could be lifted if “national security concerns” are resolved by November 12, the statement added.

 

In an executive order from August, US Donald Trump gave parent company ByteDance until September 20 to sell TikTok’s US operations or face a nationwide ban. In response, ByteDance sued the US government last month over the proposed ban, arguing that Washington had failed to provide compelling evidence that TikTok posed a national security threat.

 

The company has repeatedly stressed that US user data is stored domestically, with a backup in Singapore, and that it has no ties to the Chinese government. For its part, Beijing has strenuously denied any nefarious relationship with the apps, slamming the proposed ban as a way to prevent Chinese firms from competing in US markets.

 

According to reports, ByteDance has tentatively agreed to work with its US partner, Oracle, in order to keep operations running in the United States. However, Trump has yet to sign off on the deal. An earlier bid by Microsoft to acquire TikTok’s US assets was rejected by ByteDance.

Michigan Joins Pennsylvania With Mail-In-Ballot Extension

 

A Michigan judge on ruled on Friday that the state must accept ballots that arrive within two weeks of the election, as long as they are postmarked by November 2nd. The judge also said that the state - which was decided by 10,000 votes in 2016 - cannot restrict who can help voters return an absentee ballot.

 

 

This is very significant and the second ruling this week in a key swing state extending the ballot receipt deadline. The Pennsylvania supreme court ruled yesterday that ballots in the state must count if they are postmarked by election day and arrive by Friday after.

— Sam Levine (@srl) September 18, 2020

 

Michigan joins Pennsylvania in recent mail-in-ballot rulings, after a top state court on Thursday relaxed a deadline related to accepting ballots as long as they're postmarked no later than November 3 and arrive within three days (as opposed to two weeks in Michigan).

 

Here's how election lawsuits in other key swing-states are shaping up, via The Hill.

 

In Florida there's a major dispute over steps which former felons must take in order to regain their right to vote - which could affect nearly 800,000 votes. An estimated two-thirds of affected felons are Black and tend to lean Democrat.

 

The fight traces back to a 2018 amendment to Florida’s constitution — known as Voting Restoration Amendment 4 — that restored voting rights to those with most types of felony convictions who had completed “all terms” of their sentences.

 

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) the following year signed into law a bill that obligated Floridians with felony records to settle all outstanding court debt before their voting rights were reinstated. Democrats and civil rights groups say the law is an unconstitutional modern-day version of a Jim Crow-era poll tax.

 

The case eventually made its way up to the full 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. Earlier this month, the Atlanta-based court voted 6-4 to uphold a Florida law requiring indigent former felons to pay off outstanding court fees as a precondition to having their voting rights restored. -The Hill

 

In Wisconsin, residents filed a class action lawsuit against state election officials and lawmakers over the state's controversial April 7 primary election - which was fraught with last-minute legal and political wrangling over the state's alleged failure to create reasonable accommodations for primary voters amid the pandemic which forced thousands to "sacrifice their vote rather than run the risk of in-person voting during America’s worst infectious disease outbreak in more than a century." Plaintiffs want the court to recognize the state's past failings and avoid a repeat in November.

 

In Arizona, a lawsuit over how the state handles ballots cast at the wrong polling location is working its way through their legal system. Currently, election administrators are required to toss ballots which were 'miscast' at the wrong location.

 

Arizona Republicans say out-of-precinct policies are common across the U.S. and help ensure ineligible voters do not cast ballots in local races for officeholders who are running to represent a different geographic area. -The Hill

 

Another lawsuit in Arizona, H.B. 2023, would criminalize the collection and delivery of someone else's ballot - which The Hill says is overwhelmingly more likely to affect minority voters than whites.

Watch: CNN (Seriously) Claims That COVID Will Spread At Trump Rallies But Not BLM Protests

 

In response to criticism that CNN is continuously praising mass gatherings when they are BLM organised, but condemning Trump campaign rallies for breaking COVID restrictions, the network seriously attempted to argue that the Trump rallies are scientifically more likely to spread the virus than BLM gatherings.

 

On Wednesday, Trump campaign communications director Tim Murtaugh called out CNN’s hypocrisy on this matter, noting that “if people can protest in the streets by the tens of thousands, if people can riot, if people can gamble in casinos, then certainly they can gather peaceably under the First Amendment to hear from the president of the United States.”

 

Butthurt from this exchange, CNN Newsroom drafted in “medical analyst” Leana Wen, who happens to be a former Planned Parenthood president, to explain why science means COVID doesn’t affect BLM protests as much as Trump rallies.

 

“It does not care why it is that people are gathering but it does care about the conditions under which they’re gathering,” Wen argued, adding “outdoors much safer than indoors and wearing masks obviously much safer than not wearing masks.”

 

“I would also in this case would distinguish between the behavior of the participants while at protests versus rallies,” she continued, arguing that BLM protesters are more “aware” of the risks than Trump supporters.

 

“At protests many people are aware of the risks and doing everything they can to reduce that risk versus at many of the rallies we are seeing people going in defiance,” Wen claimed.

 

“It’s their behavior during those events. I also worry about what they do after the events. They may not be self-quarantining and testing as then getting tested as they should be,” Wen baselessly conjectured.

 

She even cited a study carried out in June that found “[T]here have not been surges of infections that have been tied” to protests.

 

Of course, there is no evidence that Trump rallies are tied to any surges of infections either, but that doesn’t seem to matter because the orange man is bad.

 

Host Jim Sciutto thanked Wen for “breaking through the fog of confusion and disinformation to lead us back to the facts.”

 

Diligent viewers were left wondering exactly what facts they’d been ‘led back to’ and questioning why the ‘fog of confusion bullshit’ appeared thicker than ever at the end of this segment.

Goldman Sachs Latest Wall Street Bank To Suffer Trading Floor COVID-19 Outbreak

 

Goldman Sachs has become the latest megabank to suffer a COVID-19 outbreak in its Manhattan offices. Earlier this month, several JPM traders based in the bank's Madison Ave. office tower were reportedly sent home after an outbreak on their floor. Still, the incident hasn't dissuaded JPM from moving all of its traders in NYC and London back into the office by Monday.

 

Though infection numbers have declined substantially in Manhattan, a trader at Goldman's offices at 200 West Street tested positive for COVID-19, prompting the bank to send several traders home.

 

Of course, finance bros who spent the summer out east did't let the virus stop them from attending parties and other events in the Hamptons summer social scene. As they head back to the city, many are carrying the virus with them.

 

Goldman's timeline for moving its most critical workers back into the officer is more measured than JPM's: GS has told staffers across most divisions to prepare for week-in, week-out rotational shifts" beginning in October.

 

"Our people’s safety is our first priority, and we are taking appropriate precautions to make sure our workplaces remain safe for those who choose to return,” said Leslie Shribman, a top spokeswoman for Goldman, in a statement released to Bloomberg.

 

There's no sign that the virus is spreading within the bank's headquarters, and the outbreak appears to only affect a small group of traders, according to bank insiders. But Wall Street moving employees back to the office was politicized by President Trump when he publicly congratulated Jamie Dimon on bringing JPM employees back (a decision that, we speclated at the time, might be driven by a desire to reassure clients, or potential clients, who have been impacted by the ructions in the commercial real estate market).

 

Congratulations to JPMorgan Chase for ordering everyone BACK TO OFFICE on September 21st. Will always be better than working from home!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 11, 2020

 

Just yesterday, reports about an outbreak on a Barclays' trading floor emerged. On Friday, London Mayor Sadiq Khan said he was seriously considering another 'lockdown', which could impede plans devised by American investment banks to bring traders and other personnel based in Europe back to the office.

 

European banks like Deutsche, on the other hand, have taken a much more relaxed approach, telling staff that it doesn't expect workers to return to the office until mid-2021.

Facebook sued for allegedly spying on Instagram users through phone cameras

 

Social media giant Facebook secretly used iPhone cameras to obtain “extremely private and intimate” information about the uses of its Instagram picture and video sharing app, a new US lawsuit claims.

 

The legal action follows Instagram users reporting in July that they had noticed the FaceTime symbol, which indicates that an iPhone camera is on, was showing up when they scrolled their feeds.

 

At the time, Facebook denied spying accusations and blamed the issue on a bug, which, it said, triggered false notifications that Instagram was accessing cameras.

 

However, now a lawsuit, filed in a federal court in San Francisco on Thursday, insists that the tech giant was doing it on purpose.

 

The Instagram app was activating smartphone cameras without notifying the owners of the phones in order to gather “lucrative and valuable data that it would not otherwise have access to,” plaintiff Brittany Conditi from New Jersey claims in the suit.

 

This “extremely private and intimate” personal information, “including in the privacy of [the users’] own homes,” allowed Facebook, which makes most of its income from selling ads, to gain “valuable insights and market research,” according to the complaint.

 

Facebook is “able to see in-real time how users respond to advertisements on Instagram, providing extremely valuable information to its advertisers,” she said.

 

The company already faced similar accusations in November last year when users said the Facebook app was accessing cameras on their iPhones without their permission.

 

In August, another lawsuit was filed against Facebook, accusing Instagram of employing facial-recognition technology to collect people’s biometric data. The tech giant insisted that its app didn’t use facial recognition technology at all.

A DARPA-Funded Implantable Biochip to Detect COVID-19 Could Hit Markets by 2021

 

(MPN) The most significant scientific discovery since gravity has been hiding in plain sight for nearly a decade and its destructive potential to humanity is so enormous that the biggest war machine on the planet immediately deployed its vast resources to possess and control it, financing its research and development through agencies like the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and HHS’ BARDA.

 

The revolutionary breakthrough came to a Canadian scientist named Derek Rossi in 2010 purely by accident. The now-retired Harvard professor claimed in an interview with the National Post that he found a way to “reprogram” the molecules that carry the genetic instructions for cell development in the human body, not to mention all biological lifeforms.

 

These molecules are called ‘messenger ribonucleic acid’ or mRNA and the newfound ability to rewrite those instructions to produce any kind of cell within a biological organism has radically changed the course of Western medicine and science, even if no one has really noticed yet. As Rossi, himself, puts it: “The real important discovery here was you could now use mRNA, and if you got it into the cells, then you could get the mRNA to express any protein in the cells, and this was the big thing.”

 

It was so big that by 2014, Rossi was able to retire after the company he co-founded with Flagship Pioneering private equity firm to exploit his innovation, – Moderna Inc., attracted almost a half billion dollars in federal award monies to begin developing vaccines using the technology. No longer affiliated with Moderna beyond his stock holdings, Rossi is just “watching for what happens next” and if he’s anything like the doting “hockey dad” he is portrayed to be, he must be horrified.

 

Remote control biology

 

As early as 2006, DARPA was already researching how to identify viral, upper respiratory pathogens through its Predicting Health and Disease (PHD) program, which led to the creation of the agency’s Biological Technologies Office (BTO), as reported by Whitney Webb in a May article for The Last American Vagabond. In 2014, DARPA’s BTO launched its “In Vivo Nanoplatforms” (IVN) program, which researches implantable nanotechnologies, leading to the development of ‘hydrogel’.

 

Hydrogel is a nanotechnology whose inventor early on boasted that “If [it] pans out, with approval from FDA, then consumers could get the sensors implanted in their core to measure their levels of glucose, oxygen, and lactate.” This contact lens-like material requires a special injector to be introduced under the skin where it can transmit light-based digital signals through a wireless network like 5G.

‘I lost all my friends’: Trump says being president has ruined his social life

 

Landing a job at the White House can be lonely, according to US President Donald Trump, who lamented during a campaign stump speech that old friends have become overly formal and uptight with him since he took office.

 

Trump told a rally in Wisconsin on Thursday that he knows “a lot of very successful people,” but that they treat him differently now that he’s president.

 

“Now they call me up: ‘Mr. President, sir, would you like to get together sometime?’ I say: ‘Loosen up. Call me Donald, you’ve known me for thirty years.’”

 

He bemoaned how “respect for the office” has made personal relationships far more difficult. “I lost all my friends,” Trump told the crowd. “They used to be loose. They used to be great. I’m not a drinker but you can sit back and have a drink, whatever you’re drinking. Now you can’t do that anymore.”

 

Perhaps most distressing, Trump claimed that now he “has to rely on people in Congress” to be his friends – humorous given the legislative branch’s notorious unpopularity, not to mention the president’s seemingly endless squabbles with lawmakers. The joke garnered laughter from the audience.

 

Trump narrowly won Wisconsin in 2016, but is currently trailing behind Democratic nominee Joe Biden in the state, according to the latest polls. A recent survey by Morning Consult gave Biden a nine-point lead over the incumbent.

 

Trump has broadcast his social life problems before. Last year, he told a rally in North Carolina that his friends have “choked” since he became president, and said they needed to “loosen up.”

TikTok CEO Invites Facebook To Join Court Challenge As Commerce Department 'Download Ban' Looms

 

Update (1010ET): Bizarrely, the interim CEO of TikTok, Vanessa Pappas, has invited Facebook to join TikTok's lawsuit against the Trump Administration, a long-shot attempt to get the courts to overrule the president. Experts believe a favorable ruling is unlikely because President Trump has invoked "national security", which the White House has broad latitude to protect.

 

With the White House still ratcheting up the pressure on ByteDance and China, Reuters has just confirmed American millennials' worst fears: That is, if a deal for American control of TikTok isn't completed by Sunday evening in the US, the Commerce Department will move to block any future downloads of the apps in the US, a critical step toward shutting them down in the US, as President Trump has insisted.

 

Moments later, Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross told journalists that WeChat - another Chinese app targeted in one of Trump's executive order - will be "shut down in the US" by Sept. 20 if a deal isn't struck. He also said talks between TikTok and CFIUS are "ongoing", suggesting that the deal is far from finished.

 

Reports from late last night suggested that Beijing would be comfortable with the TikTok-Oracle-White House deal, so long as TikTok's content-recommendation algorithm isn't transferred to the US.

 

With deal talks coming down to the wire, the Commerce Department is also reportedly preparing to issue an order on Friday barring anyone in the US from downloading the Chinese-owned apps - both WeChat and TikTok - starting on Sept 20, unless President Trump rescinds the order by late Sunday evening.

 

According to Secretary Ross, the Department of Commerce will announce prohibitions on transactions relating to both mobile applications on Friday.

 

"The Chinese Communist Party CCP has demonstrated the means and motives to use these apps to threaten the national security, foreign policy, and the economy of the U.S," the Department of Commerce said in a statement to the press, released just moments ago.

 

Though the comments also introduced more confusion, as the administration has apparently kicked the can once again, saying that TikTok will have until Nov. 12 before a total ban, giving the negotiators more space to hash out a deal.

 

US social media companies like Snap and Facebook rallied on the news. Notably, Reuters reported that the new directive wouldn't impact US companies interactions with these apps outside the US, a provision that American corporates doing business in China have demanded, since WeChat is the dominant communications platform for people inside China.

 

The statement also suggests that negotiations will likely drag on past Sunday.

 

According to the SCMP, ByteDance says a final "deal" has not yet been signed. And even once the US and both companies assent, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce will also have a say in the final plan. So-called "Experts" who spoke to the SCMP said that there's still potential for China to shoot down the deal.

Queen strips Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein of CBE after rape conviction

 

Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein, who is serving 23 years in prison in the US for rape and sexual assault, has been stripped of his honorary Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) by the ruling of the Queen.

 

Weinstein’s CBE “shall be cancelled and annulled,” the official announcement in the London Gazette read, adding that “his name shall be erased from the Register of the said Order.”

 

The decision was made during an earlier session of the Honours Forfeiture Committee. The body, which is independent from the UK government, gathers to evaluate the behavior of the holders of the order and decide if it brought “the honours system into disrepute.”

 

Weinstein, who won an Oscar for producing ‘Shakespeare in Love’ and was involved with dozens of successful movies including iconic indie titles ‘Pulp Fiction’ and ‘Sex, Lies, and Videotape’, was awarded a CBE back in 2004 for his contributions to art.

 

In March, the 68-year-old was sentenced to 23 years in prison after being found guilty of sexually assaulting former assistant Mimi Haleyi in 2006, and raping aspiring actress Jessica Mann in 2013.

 

More than 100 women – among them stars such as Gwyneth Paltrow, Uma Thurman and Salma Hayek being – had accused Weinstein of sexual misconduct, which dated back decades. Those accusations inspired the #MeToo movement against sexual abuse and harassment of women in 2017.

 

Shortly after the scandal broke, the British Film Institute (BFI) rescinded the producer’s fellowship, which was granted to him in 2002.

The Snitching Begins: Nosey Neighbour Calls Police on Wake in Pub Garden

 

Britons have already starting snitching on each other over perceived breaches of the coronavirus ‘rule of six’, with one woman grassing on people at a wake in a pub garden.

 

Ministers this week had urged members of the public to inform on their neighbours if they were suspected of gathering in groups of larger than six. Home Secretary Priti Patel even said that two families bumping into each other in the street and stopping for a chat could be against the law.

 

One woman thought that it was her “public duty” to inform on a group of mourners at a wake in the garden of a pub in Wigston, Leicestershire.

 

Police officers visited the Old Crown on Wednesday unannounced after calling the pub landlady Sue Humphries twice to check that groups of mourners were not getting too close to each other, according to The Mirror. Police asked some groups be moved from the back of the pub to the front, but otherwise, the landlady said, they believed that no rules had been broken.

 

The informant justified calling the police on the some 30 people gathering to mark the passing of a loved one, telling the newspaper on Thursday: “I was concerned at what I saw.

 

“There appeared to be a large group of people drinking outside the pub and they looked quite close to each other.

 

“I felt I had to alert the police in case rules were being broken.

 

“I felt it was my public duty to report this and I would do the same again.”

 

She had also admitted to taking video footage of the mourners.

 

Liberty Going Out of Fashion: 69% of Britons Support 9pm Coronavirus Curfew https://t.co/Qa5sWd1u5j

 

— Breitbart London (@BreitbartLondon) September 16, 2020

 

On Wednesday, Prime Minister Boris Johnson tried to row back the hard line on reporting on your neighbours, but it appears that some had already received the original message.

 

The prime minister said: “I have never much been in favour of sneak culture, myself.

 

“What people should do in the first instance is obviously if they are concerned is raise it with their friends and neighbours.”

 

He did, however, back people calling the police “if they think there is a serious threat to public health as a result of their neighbour’s activities — if there is some huge kind of Animal House party taking place, as I am sure, hot tubs and so forth, and there is a serious threat to public health then it’s reasonable for the authorities to know”.

 

While the likes of Steve Baker have called for the end of laws that curtail the rights of citizens, it would appear that freedom is going out of style, with recent surveys showing that Britons largely back curfews, the new coronavirus law, and the general culture of fear.

 

In a series of YouGov surveys from the past two weeks, 69 per cent back a 9 pm curfew on pubs, 77 per cent support the ‘rule of six’, 73 per cent are worried about a second wave of coronavirus, and 74 per cent do not think that the public is taking the pandemic seriously enough.

 

The fear and support for an authoritarian British state may have been by design, though. Initially, YouGov polling from March 13th found that most Britons were not scared of contracting the virus. The government thought this was problematic, with a briefing note from March 22nd stating that “the perceived level of personal threat needs to be increased among those who are complacent” including “using hard-hitting emotional messaging”.

 

“To be effective this must also empower people by making clear the actions they can take to reduce the threat,” it added.

Church Launches Sunday School Ad Depicting Jesus as Bearded Lady with Breasts

 

The Church of Iceland has raised eyebrows with a Sunday School advert depicting Jesus Christ sporting a long beard and apparently bouncing breasts.

 

The Scandinavian church, which is notionally Evangelical Lutheran, earned a substantial backlash for the stunt, with social media users claiming to be former congregants citing such “woke” virtue-signalling as their reason for leaving its dwindling flock.

 

But Petur Georg Markan, the Church’s media representative defended the advert, saying that it supports diversity and suggesting that having Jesus depicted in different ways is positive, according to MailOnline.

 

“In this [advert], we see a Jesus who has breasts and a beard. We’re trying to embrace society as it is. We have all sorts of people and we need to train ourselves to talk about Jesus as being ‘all sorts’ in this context,” he insisted.

 

“Especially because it’s really important that each and every person see themselves in Jesus and that we don’t stagnate too much. That’s the essential message. So this is okay. It’s okay that Jesus has a beard and breasts,” he added.

 

Church minister Guorun Karls-og Helgudottir also defended they advert, saying: “Each person interprets something in this picture. Some people interpret it as a trans Jesus, others as a woman. Some see Mary with a beard, and others see a genderqueer person. Views within the church are just as diverse as elsewhere.”

 

Nevertheless, the Church appears to have realised it has overreached, at least as far as Christians are concerned, by deleted the advert and issuing a statement saying that its assembly “regrets that the picture of Jesus in a Sunday school advertisement has hurt people. The goal was to emphasise diversity, not to hurt people or shock them.”

 

However, Mr Markan, the aforementioned Church media rep, also indicated that this would not be the end of the Church using Christ’s likeness to advance “woke” political topics, advising that “Soon, we’ll be introducing more personifications where, for example, you’ll see Jesus making a contribution to environmental issues.”

Joint UK-U.S. Task Group Seize £81 Million of Cocaine in Caribbean Busts

 

 

A team of British sailors and Royal Marines, joined by United States Coast Guard (USCG) personnel have interdicted 358kg (790lbs) of cocaine in the Caribbean, depriving traffickers of drugs worth some £81 million ($104 million).

 

The cocaine parcels were captured in three separate interceptions of drug smuggler’s boats in the Caribbean sea, with British Royal Fleet Auxilliary ship RFA ARGUS and the Royal Navy’s HMS MEDWAY with assistance from USCG teams onboard the British vessels.

 

The National Crime Agency said the 358kg of cocaine had a value of £81 million. In London, Minister for the Armed Forces James Heappey hailed the law enforcement actions, saying the ships had originally been int he Caribbean to respond to huirrcane damage but had linked up with the USCG to intercept drugs as well.

 

He said: “This is amazing work from our people after months away from home.”

 

A Royal Navy account of the actions seen by Breitbart London recounts how the RFA Argus responded to a sighting fo a suspicious vessel made by a US maritime patrol aircraft, setting an intercept course but using the weather to keep itself obscured from the target until the last moment.

 

Despite being a 28,000-tonne, 175m long Naval support vessel the Argus managed to maintain the element of surprise, the Navy said, by using squalls in a storm as cover, while : “her boarding team of Royal Marines of 47 Commando and the US Coast Guard prepared to strike. On approaching the target craft, the Royal Marines were spotted and the suspect vessel’s crew started to throw their illegal cargo overboard.”

 

Coxswain Corporal Max Bygraves, of 47 Commando’s 539 Raiding Squadron, said of the capture: “Some patches of heavy rain had hidden Argus from sight in the distance and we were closing in unseen. When we were one mile off they saw us and started to run for it. We gave chase.

 

“We could see people on board throwing packages into the sea. This is important evidence, so we had to stop and collect one. The rest were picked up later. We then continued the chase and managed to catch the vessel.”

 

Caribbean drug interceptions have long been a regular task for Britain’s Navy, with military and Auxiliary ships frequently in the area to visit and support British territories in the region. Indeed, the Royal Navy was given official thanks at the time of the Royal Marine’s 350th anniversary in 2014 for its work in anti-drugs operations, with a parade at the London Parliament just a day after HMS ARGYLL captured 200kg of cocaine.

Two Texas Men Arrested for Allegedly Sex Trafficking Teen Girl

 

Federal prosecutors in Dallas announced the arrest this month of two more men in connection to a sex trafficking conspiracy involving a 13-year-old girl. Agents rescued the missing girl from a Dallas-area motel in September 2019.

 

U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Texas Nealy Cox announced on Wednesday the arrest earlier this month of two men who allegedly purchased sex from a 13-year-old girl as part of a sex-trafficking conspiracy. A federal grand jury handed down a superseding indictment against the two men and a co-conspirator on September 2. This led to the issuance of arrest warrants for 35-year-old Kention Obryan Johnson and 30-year-old Sergio Trinidad Carvajal. ICE Homeland Security Investigations agents arrested the two men on September 2 on charges of conspiracy to commit sex trafficking and sex trafficking of children.

 

“Traffickers sell children for sex because their clients will pay for it. It’s that simple,” U.S. Attorney Cox said at a press conference reported by KCBD11 Wednesday morning. “By attacking both the supply and the demand, we think we will be able to truly make a difference in fighting this dehumanizing, horrific crime.”

 

The federal indictment obtained by Breitbart Texas reveals that the two men allegedly purchased “commercial sex acts” from the young girl referred to in the documents as Jane Doe 1 (JD1).

 

Initially, prosecutors obtained an arrest warrant for Curtis Vance Mathis for alleged Sex Trafficking of Children in November 2019. HSI agents later arrested the man and placed him in federal detention, court records show.

 

The criminal complaint, also obtained by Breitbart Texas, indicated that JD1’s mother dropped the 13-year-old girl off at her Fort Worth-area middle school on the morning of September 25, 2019. When the mother returned home, the school notified her that the girl never made it into the school. The parents filed a missing person’s report with the Fort Worth Police Department.

 

Using photos of the girl provided by the parents, detectives with the Fort Worth Police Major Case/Human Trafficking/Missing Persons Unit found images resembling the girl on a commercial sex advertising website known as CityXGuide.com. The website has since been seized and shut down by the Department of Justice.

 

The images of the little girl appeared in an ad offering sexual acts at an Irving, Texas, motel. Police set up a sting operation at the Arya Inn & Suites Hotel located in Irving. Posing as a customer, detectives made entry to the room on November 5, 2019, and found a girl later identified as JD1 alone wearing only a large hooded sweatshirt, indicating she expected to perform a sex act with the undercover detective.

Federal judge BLOCKS Postmaster General Louis DeJoy's 'politically-motivated' cuts and orders all election mail to go first class

 

A U.S. judge on Thursday blocked controversial Postal Service changes that have slowed mail nationwide, calling them 'a politically motivated attack on the efficiency of the Postal Service' before the November election.

 

Judge Stanley Bastian in Yakima, Washington, said he was issuing a nationwide preliminary injunction sought by 14 states that sued the Trump administration and the U.S. Postal Service.

 

The states challenged the Postal Service's so-called 'leave behind' policy, where trucks have been leaving postal facilities on time regardless of whether there is more mail to load. They also sought to force the Postal Service to treat election mail as first class mail.

 

The judge noted after a hearing that Trump had repeatedly attacked voting by mail by making unfounded claims that it is rife with fraud. Many more voters are expected to vote by mail this November because of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the states have expressed concern that delays might result in voters not receiving ballots or registration forms in time.

 

'The states have demonstrated the defendants are involved in a politically motivated attack on the efficiency of the Postal Service,' Bastian said.

 

He also said the changes created 'a substantial possibility many voters will be disenfranchised.'

Coronavirus is so widespread and super contagious that going to a near empty gym is instant death yet everything else is safe!? Anyone else tired of this pick and choose shit!?

 

I’m tired of being bitched at for going to the gym to work out & just enjoy myself for an hour because I choose not to live in fear anymore. Also tired of people bitching to me about Social distancing too sorry but if

 

People can Protest super close to each other in huge crowds with no distancing and sometimes no mask(no matter the cause whether it’s for BLM or re-open/Anti mask) many people I know who went actually tested negative afterwards so is covid really that bad?

restaurants and bars are allowed to be open

cdc saysyou can totally hook up with a stranger as long you’re following covid guidelines🤣(wait a minute I thought we must distance at all times? You can’t distance during sex)

Dr.fauci can flip flop and now say voting in person is safe yet going to the gym or hanging with a small group of friends is not(wtf?)

 

Then please explain to me why anyone should have a cow about me going to the gym for an hour? The above mentioned things are way riskier if we’re gonna compare!

2020: The Year Governments Killed Hundreds of Thousands of Their Own People

 

And sentenced to death millions more

 

In the run up to the 2003 Iraq invasion, all you could hear about was how Saddam had “gassed his own people” — a reference to up to 5,000 Iraqi Kurds killed in the 1988 Halabja chemical attack when Saddam was still being propped up by the Empire.

 

I guess that was meant to evoke parallels to Hitler, as well as focus attention specifically on crimes against own populace. Sure, the US had strangled to death 1 million Iraqis, but that Saddam had done it to his own citizens is what made his much more modest body count uniquely evil.

 

The morality of assigning lesser weight to mass murder of foreigners aside, it is true that by 2003 it seemed the time of governments inflicting truly massive mortality on their own populations, which left such a terrible mark on the 20th century, was behind us.

 

Sure, post-WWII the Empire had extinguished a few million in Vietnam, Korea and Iraq. But these, as said, were populaces of foreign governments. The last such government democide of own subjects was the 1.5 million who perished 1975-79 under the Kmer Rouge, and before that the 45 million in Mao’s 1958-62 Great Leap Forward. For even earlier death-by-government with body counts in the millions you’d have to go back to Stalin’s famines and terror, and to those of Churchill (if you count the Crown’s subjects in British India as Churchill’s “own people”).

 

Thus until now, we lived in an age where we believed that albeit — courtesy of Empire’s worst excesses — the wholesale slaughter and strangulation of foreigners was still with us, at least the terrible 20th-century style strangulation of own citizens no longer was.

 

In 2020 that no longer holds true.

 

According to one estimate 21,000 Britons died during just the first eight weeks of the lockdown as a result of the lockdown. Another study puts it at a more modest 16,000.

 

According to the London government itself up to 185,000 more are expected to die in the coming years as a result of the 2020 lockdown. A different study puts it at a more modest 85,000.

 

Whether it is 21,000 and 185,000, or 16,000 and 85,000 these are huge figures. And while Britain’s lockdown was the longest in the West, the UK is just one small part of the developed world that locked down. For the entire developed world combined the losses are easily ten (if not twenty) times greater.

Victorian Government Pushes New Bill to Detain ‘Conspiracy Theorists,’ Anti-Lockdown Protesters, and Families

 

The Victorian government will debate a new bill in the State Parliament this week which would hand authorities the power to forcibly detain “conspiracy theorists” and people suspected to likely spread coronavirus, such as anti-lockdown protesters and their close contacts.

 

If passed, the Omnibus (Emergency Measures) Bill will allow the state to detain anyone they suspect of being “high risk” or likely to negligently spread COVID-19, either if they have the virus or have been in contact with an infected person.

 

According to The Age, a state government spokesman said the rule could be applied to “conspiracy theorists who refuse to self-isolate or severely drug-affected or mentally impaired people who do not have the capacity to quarantine.”

 

Those detained could then be placed in quarantine facilities, such as hotels, where they can be monitored by authorities.

 

On Sunday police fined 200 people and made 74 arrests during an anti-lockdown protest in Melbourne. Could this bill lead to the mass-forced quarantining of similar anti-lockdown protesters?

 

Will the legislation result in anti-lockdown protesters being deemed “high risk” of spreading the virus, resulting in the forced detainment and mandatory quarantining of their family members, work colleagues, and close friends?

Secret blueprints for Covid-19 vaccine trials revealed by Moderna and Pfizer as the companies race to win back public trust on the studies

 

US biotech firm Moderna, one of nine companies in the late stages of clinical trials for a Covid-19 vaccine, became the first to publish the complete blueprints of its study following calls for greater transparency.

 

Pfizer, the other American company currently carrying out Phase 3 trials in the US, followed suit a short time later and there is now added pressure for the remainder to do the same.

 

Only Moderna laid out a likely timetable within which a successful vaccine could be discovered, estimating it will be before the end of the year.

 

Yet President Trump claimed on Tuesday that there could be one as early as four weeks time, before his November re-election attempt.

 

He even forced Dr. Robert Redfield, the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, to walk back testimony to the Senate that masks work better than a vaccine on Wednesday after blasting the comments as 'mistaken'.

 

The president said he had called Redfield to set the record straight and said the CDC boss had agreed he 'answered that question incorrectly' about the masks.

 

The secret blueprints were released in the hopes that the companies will win the trust of the public and scientists anxious about the safety of an early vaccine.

 

The details are generally kept under wraps but Moderna and Pfizer bowed to public pressure amid concerns from Americans that the quick discovery of a vaccine has become too much of a political issue to be deemed safe.

 

Phase 3 is the final stage before approval, in which a vaccine and a placebo are tested on thousands of participants to verify the medicine is safe and effective.

 

Both companies blueprints detailed the comprehensive road map for the trials, as well as details on how participants are being tested and monitored.

 

The plans also layout the conditions under which problems would stop a trial early and how evidence is being used to determine whether those who receive the vaccine are being protected from Covid-19.

 

Moderna's CEO Stephane Bancel said on Thursday his company would know whether their vaccine works by November. October is possible but unlikely, he told CNBC.

 

Final analysis may not take place until the spring of next year, however.

 

The trial protocol published Thursday, which runs to 135 pages and is marked 'confidential,' fixes the parameters of the experiment.

 

The most important of these is how it will judge whether results are conclusive.

 

The reality of an immunization trial is that it's necessary to wait until a certain number of volunteers become naturally infected, in order to compare outcomes in the placebo group against the group given the vaccine.

 

So the decline in the rate of infection in the US could theoretically delay the results, possibly until December, said Bancel.

Sadiq Khan is slammed for 'devastating' decision to scrap New Year's Eve fireworks in central London as industry bosses brand move another hammer-blow for the economy

 

Mayor of London confirmed no fireworks display to take place in central London

Instead, television event will take place for people to enjoy from safety of home

He added 'we can't afford' for large numbers of people to congregate in capital

Insiders urged Mr Khan to 'consider impact of cancelling live events on industry'

 

Sadiq Khan was today criticised for his 'devastating' decision to scrap the New Year's Eve fireworks in London - as events industry bosses urged him to consider the impact of cancellation.

 

The Mayor of London has confirmed the display, which typically takes place near the London Eye, will not go ahead as 'we can't afford' to have large numbers of people congregating amid the coronavirus pandemic.

 

Mr Khan added the New Year will instead be welcomed by 'something that people can enjoy in the comfort of their living rooms,' but he was unable to give details.

 

The move has since been slammed by industry insiders, with Peter Heath of the Professional Lighting and Sound Association urging Mr Khan to 'think about the impact of cancelling live events on industry, on the UK economy and the wellbeing of citizens.'

 

Speaking to MailOnline, he added: 'This is devastating news, not just for the event workers responsible for putting on a show-stopping spectacle, but also for the millions of spectators that look forward to ringing in the New Year.

 

'While we understand the need to exercise social distancing, we need to think about the impact of cancelling live events on industry, on the UK economy and the wellbeing of citizens.

Skee Wee See Y’all: The Ladies of Alpha Kappa Sorority Inc. Have Been Donating $19.08 to the Biden-Harris Campaign

 

Not only are Black women the backbone of the Democratic Party, but never let it be said that the ladies of Alpha Kappa Sorority Inc. don’t take care of their own.

 

Not more than 24 hours after former Vice President Joe Biden announced that California Sen. Kamala Harris, she of the Howard University and doorknocker bonafides, would be his running mate, the Democratic Party’s fundraiser began seeing a strange, exact donation amount.

 

“I’ve never seen people give in such a specific increment ever before,” Clayton Cox, finance director for the Democratic National Committee told Roll Call. But Cox told Roll Call that he’s active in the college Greek system so he knew what was up.

 

“The week after she was announced, I was getting one every 15 minutes,” says Cox. “It was that frequent.”

 

For the uninitiated, 1908 was the year that the AKAs, the oldest Black sorority in America, were founded.

 

From Roll Call:

 

As of Friday, the Biden Victory Fund (a joint fundraising effort between the campaign and the DNC) had received more than 11,000 of these donations totaling almost $219,000, according to DNC Deputy Communications Director Chris Meagher.

 

Since Harris launched her own presidential bid in 2019, many have described her sorority as a “secret weapon.” But anyone who’s spent time around the ladies of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Inc. knows there’s nothing secret about their pride and they are quick to let you know of the organization to which they belong. At Harris campaign stops, they can be seen decked out in their signature pink and green while calling out their trademark “SKEE-WEE!”

 

“Family is my beloved Alpha Kappa Alpha, our Divine 9 and my HBCU [historically Black colleges and universities] brothers and sisters,” Harris said while accepting the vice presidential nomination at this year’s convention.

 

Cox stressed that most likely, the donations of $19.08 have been from all of the “Divine 9,” as folks have pushed digital flyers challenging Black Greeks and HBCU grads to donate $19.08 to the campaign that keeps it as real as Harris’ butter Timbs. Also, peep how smooth she leaves the plane. Gangsta shit.

 

Kamala THEE Harris in Timbs.

I repeat, our next Vice President in Timbs pic.twitter.com/3QnBhzF7qt

— Sarah J. Galvez (@SJ_Galvez) September 15, 2020

 

Despite the Democratic ticket being finalized and Harris moving comfortably into her role as the possible first Black vice president, the donations haven’t slowed one bit.

 

“I still get notifications about $19.08 donations,” says Cox. “Every day, several times a day.”

Meet Norm Eisen: Legal hatchet man and central operative in the “color revolution” against President Trump

 

In our report on Never Trump State Department official George Kent, Revolver News first drew attention to the ominous similarities between the strategies and tactics the United States government employs in so-called “Color Revolutions” and the coordinated efforts of government bureaucrats, NGOs, and the media to oust President Trump.

 

Our recent follow-up to this initial report focused specifically on a shadowy, George Soros linked group called the Transition Integrity Project (TIP), which convened “war games” exercises suggesting the likelihood of a “contested election scenario,” and of ensuing chaos should President Trump refuse to leave office. We further showed how these “contested election” scenarios we are hearing so much about play perfectly into the Color Revolution framework sketched out Revolver News’ first installment in the Color Revolution series.

 

This third installment of Revolver News‘ series exposing the Color Revolution against Trump will focus on one quiet and indeed mostly overlooked participant in the Transition Integrity Project’s biased election “war games” exercise—a man by the name of Norm Eisen.

 

As the man who implemented the David Brock blueprint for suing the President into paralysis and his allies into bankruptcy, who helped mainstream and amplify the Russia Hoax, who drafted 10 articles of impeachment for the Democrats a full month before President Trump ever called the Ukraine President in 2018, who personally served as special counsel litigating the Ukraine impeachment, who created a template for Internet censorship of world leaders and a handbook for mass mobilizing racial justice protesters to overturn democratic election results, there is perhaps no man alive with a more decorated resume for plots against President Trump.

 

Indeed, the story of Norm Eisen – a key architect of nearly every attempt to delegitimize, impeach, censor, sue and remove the democratically elected 45th President of the United States – is a tale that winds through nearly every facet of the color revolution playbook. There is no purer embodiment of Revolver’s thesis that the very same regime change professionals who run Color Revolutions on behalf of the US Government in order to undermine or overthrow alleged “authoritarian” governments overseas, are running the very same playbook to overturn Trump’s 2016 victory and to pre-empt a repeat in 2020. To put it simply, what you see is not just the same Color Revolution playbook run against Trump, but the same people using it against Trump who have employed it in a professional capacity against targets overseas—same people same playbook.

 

In Norm Eisen’s case, the “same people same playbook” refrain takes an arrestingly literal turn when one realizes that Norm Eisen wrote a classic Color Revolution regime change manual, and conveniently titled it “The Playbook.”
