When in doubt, just lie: NYTimes: Republican Inquiry Finds No Evidence of Wrongdoing by Biden
WASHINGTON — An election-year investigation by Senate Republicans into corruption allegations against Joseph R. Biden Jr., the Democratic presidential nominee, and his son, Hunter, involving Ukraine found no evidence of improper influence or wrongdoing by the former vice president, bringing to a close a highly politicized inquiry its leaders had hoped would tarnish President Trump’s rival.

Police in 10 Countries Takes Down Cocaine Trafficking Gang
Wednesday, 23 September 2020
A massive operation spanning ten countries and hundreds of law enforcement officers took down one of the most active cocaine-trafficking networks in Europe, an Albanian-speaking group that operated under the name Kompania Bello, Europol said.
Officers arrested 20 suspects in nine countries, including one of the group’s leaders, Denis Matoshri, who was taken into custody in Dubai, Al-Arabiya reported. Operation Los Blancos was the result of a five-years-long investigation that previously saw 84 individuals arrested.
“For years, international importers of cocaine worked separately from the wholesalers and the gangs distributing the drug on the streets,” the agency said. ”In this case, the Albanian-speaking network under investigation ditched the entire model and controlled the whole chain – from arranging huge shipments directly from South America to the distribution throughout Europe.”
A truly global enterprise, Kompania Bello had ties around the continent and across the Atlantic.
“Using sophisticated encrypted communication means, the organisation’s ringleader – a 40-year old Albanian national based in Ecuador – negotiated directly with the South American drug cartels, arranged huge shipments of cocaine to the major ports of Europe and, with the help of accomplices based in Italy, the Netherlands and Albania, organised distribution throughout Europe,” said Europol.
Officers seized during last week’s operation four tons of cocaine and US$6.4 million in assets.
The group also operated a complex money laundering scheme, using a remittance system of Chinese origin known as a “fei ch’ien” in which people deposit a sum in a network ‘agency’ in one country and another operator withdraws the equivalent amount elsewhere in the world and passes it on to the intended recipient.
The system is difficult to detect as it does not leave traces of the transactions. The network is believed to have laundered millions of euro through this system.

why are so many people talking to leafy all of a sudden
I made some eggies and ham, brought it up here to my room and reached for the sriracha. Of course, you have to shake it before you squeeze so I shook it and found out the nozzle was open. Now I have sriracha all over my face and it burns but I'm too lazy to go get a towel and clean it off right.
Nee How!
Dozens of Mafiosi Arrested in Massive Operations
Monday, 21 September 2020
Hundreds of French, Beligian and Italian law enforcement officers arrested dozens of suspected mafia members in two separate operations executed on Tuesday in cooperation with Europol.
About 550 French and Italian officers arrested 46 individuals - 33 in France and 13 in Italy - for their involvement in large-scale drug trafficking and money laundering, Europol said.
The operation was the result of a more than two-year-long investigation and targeted members of the ‘Ndrangeta - an Italian organized crime group from the Calabria region - as well as local organized crime groups operating in France.
“During the house searches, law enforcement officers seized weapons, a large amount of cash, counterfeited documents, drugs, vehicles and various assets from money laundering operations. The investigation also uncovered the transfer of weapons, some of them military,” the statement said.
The arrested are suspected of being members of two ‘Ndrangheta clans, the Gallico, based in the Italian city of Palmi, and the Magnoli clan in the French Riviera.
“The suspects linked to the ‘Ndrangheta were reported to play an active role in cocaine and cannabis trafficking between the Côte d’Azur in France and Liguria in Italy, with supply chains from Belgium, Spain and the Netherlands,” said Europol.
During a separate operation, Belgian and Italian police arrested eight suspected members of Cosa Nostra, Italy’s Sicilian-based mafia group, for attempted murder, drug and weapons trafficking.
“During the joint raid, more than 160 police officers, including members of the Belgium Special Weapons and Tactics team, helicopters and police dogs were deployed” said a separate Europol statement.
“This operation puts an end to an infamous and deadly mafia feud that had been going on among alleged members of the Cosa Nostra in Belgium (Liège and Maasmechelen) and Italy (Favara in Sicily) between 2015 and 2018,” said Europol. “The violence that arose from this clan war was most likely related to cocaine trafficking disputes.”
In recent years, the ‘Ndrangheta has overtaken the Sicilian Cosa Nostra as Italy’s most prominent mafia group. The ‘Ndrangheta’s illicit activities, which include everything from the trafficking of narcotics, arms and humans to extortion and money laundering are estimated to account for a full 3% of the Italian GDP.

Winning BIGly!
that's because they're all criminals
Notice how they just continue rolling with their agenda regardless of what's going on in the world around them?
It makes me think they're given directives in batches at some point and just have to march to the beat.
