Emails show that Biden group knew they were working with Chinese intelligence

The Biden family business group that partnered with a Communist Chinese company knew that it was working with Chinese intelligence. The Chinese partner was also closely tied to the Chinese regime and the People’s Liberation Army.

Tucked in a Wall Street Journal feature that went online less than 90 minutes before last night’s Trump-Biden presidential debate, the revelation came in a set of emails and texts that former Hunter Biden business partner Tony Bobulinski provided to editorial writer Kim Strassel.

In a 2017 exchange, Biden business associate James Gilliar reminded Bobulinsky that their Chinese counterparts “are intelligence so they understand the value added” by the Biden name.

The relationship was between Sinohawk Holdings, which the Wall Street Journal described as “a venture between the Bidens and CEFC China Energy, a Shanghai-based conglomerate” between 2015, when Joe Biden was vice president, and 2017.

Strassel describes what the text and emails contained to show that the Biden business group knew that their partners were Chinese spies, and that the Chinese investor was “closely entwined with the Chinese government and military”:

Mr. Bobulinski’s text messages show he was recruited for the project by James Gilliar, a Hunter associate. Mr. Gilliar explains in a December 2015 text that there will be a deal between the Chinese and “one of the most prominent families from the U.S.” A month later he introduces Rob Walker, also “a partner of Biden.” In March 2016, Mr. Gilliar tells Mr. Bobulinski the Chinese entity is CEFC, which is shaping up to be “the Goldmans of China.” Mr. Gilliar promises that same month to “develop” the terms of a deal “with hunter.” Note that in 2015-16, Joe Biden was still vice president.

As the deal takes shape in 2017, Mr. Bobulinski begins to question what Hunter will contribute besides his name, and worries that he was “kicked out of US Navy for cocaine use.” Mr. Gilliar acknowledges “skill sets [sic] missing” and observes that Hunter “has a few demons.” He explains that “in brand [Hunter is] imperative but right know [sic] he’s not essential for adding input.” Mr. Bobulinski writes that he appreciates “the name/leverage being used” but thinks the economic “upside” should go to the team doing the actual work. Mr. Gilliar reminds him that those on the Chinese side “are intelligence so they understand the value added.”

900 Pounds of Cocaine Seized at Texas Border Crossing

U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers in Laredo, Texas, seized more than 900 pounds of cocaine at a commercial border crossing checkpoint. The two separate seizures are estimated to be worth nearly $7 million, officials stated.

CBP officers assigned to the World Trade Bridge in Laredo on October 16 observed a tractor-trailer approaching for inspection for entry into the United States. The manifest indicated the driver was carrying a load of aluminum scrap. The officers referred the driver to a secondary inspection area where operators of a non-intrusive imaging system detected 135 packages they believed to be filled with drugs, according to information provided by Laredo Office of Field Operations officials. A K-9 also alerted to the possible presence of drugs in the trailer.

A physical search of the trailer cargo area led to the confirmation of the 135 packages of drugs. Officials identified the packages as being filled with 337 pounds of cocaine.

Later that day, officers working the same border crossing port of entry observed another tractor-trailer approaching for inspection. This driver also presented a manifest listing the load as aluminum scrap, officials stated. Officers referred the driver to a secondary inspection area where operators of the non-intrusive imaging system and a K-9 alert led to the discovery of additional packages of drugs.

Officers carried out a physical search of the cargo area and found 237 packages containing 567 pounds of cocaine. The officers seized the drugs and the tractor-trailer rig.

Officials did not disclose the nationality of the driver or what they did with them.

“Our frontline CBP officers utilize their training and experience along with our high-tech tools and that effective combination led to the seizure of $6.9 million in cocaine in the cargo environment,” said Acting Port Director Andrew Douglas, Laredo Port of Entry. “The ability to facilitate lawful trade and travel while maintaining a robust enforcement focus is a critical element to our border security mission.”

CBP officials turned both cases over to ICE Homeland Security Investigations special agents for further investigation and prosecution.

The total estimated value of the two cocaine shipments is $6,973,400, officials reported.

Barnier Claims UK and EU Have ‘Huge Common Responsibility’ to Stop Full Brexit

Brussels’ chief Brexit negotiator Michel Barnier has claimed that it is the UK’s and the EU’s “common responsibility” to agree on a deal and stop a clean-break, no-deal Brexit.

Just last week, Prime Minister Boris Johnson had declared that negotiations with the EU had failed over the bloc’s intransigence on issues like anti-competition rules and fishing, and that the UK should prepare for a no deal.

However, Mr Johnson did not officially withdraw from trade talks, instead his proxies stating in the following days that negotiations could restart if Europe were willing to compromise. EU insiders interpreted the prime minister’s threat of no deal as mere bluster, with one saying that “if the UK would really not care about having a new deal, it would have left the table long ago”.

Talks recommenced in London on Thursday, with Mr Barnier telling Reuters: “I think it’s very important to be back at the table.”

“I think we have a huge common responsibility,” Mr Barnier said, implying that there would be grave consequences for both parties if the UK left the EU without a deal.

The UK officially left the European Union on January 31st, 2020, but remains in a transition period tied to the EU’s rules until December 31st, 2020. If a free trade agreement is not made, the UK will leave the bloc’s institutions and trade with the EU-27 on World Trade Organization (WTO) rules.

The UK is already working on multiple trade deals with the United States, Australia, and others, signing an FTA with Japan on Friday, a trade continuation agreement with Norway this week, and earlier this month signing a partnership agreement including free trade with the Ukraine.

Mr Barnier’s remarks echo the Remain campaign’s Project Fear before the 2016 vote on European Union membership, with disproven claims that voting to leave the bloc would result in immediate job losses, recession, and lead to a “punishment” budget. Likewise, an ominous threat hangs in the balance if the UK and the EU decide to part ways without a deal.

Brexiteers like Nigel Farage have warned, however, that signing a trade deal with the bloc based on the Withdrawal Agreement would come back to “haunt” the UK, as it could continue to tie the UK into the EU’s rules.

A Downing Street spokesman said on Thursday that there were still “significant gaps” between the two parties on fishing and the so-called “level playing field”, and that it was “entirely possible that negotiations will not succeed”. Talks will continue next week.

However, Mr Farage is also more confident than not that a deal will be agreed, predicting that France will agree to “give a little on fishing”, but the UK forced will be to “promise to keep broadly but not directly aligned to EU state aid rules”. Farage said that such a deal “will not fully satisfy many Brexiteers”.

Phishing groups are collecting user data, email and banking passwords via fake voter registration forms

With the election window closing, phishing groups are striking the iron while it's hot.

Days ahead of the US Presidential Election, spam groups are hurrying to strike the iron while it's still hot and using voter registration-related lures to trick people into accessing fake government sites and give away their personal data, sometimes with the group being so bold to ask for banking and email passwords and even auto registration information.

These campaigns have been taking place since September and are still going on today, while the lures (email subject lines) are still relevant.

Spotted by email security firms KnowBe4 and Proofpoint, these campaigns are spoofing the identity of the US Election Assistance Commission (EAC), the US government agency responsible for managing voter registration guidelines.

Subject lines in this campaign are simple and play on the fear of US citizens that their voter registration request might have failed.

Using subject lines like "voter registration application details couldnt be confirmed" and "your county clerk couldnt confirm voter registration," users are lured to web pages posing as government sites and asked to fill a voter registration form again.

According to Proofpoint, these sites are fake and are usually hosted on hacked WordPress sites. If users fail to notice the incorrect URL, they will eventually end up providing their personal details to a criminal group. Data usually collected via these forms includes:

Name

Date of birth

Mail address

Email address

Social Security Number (SSN)

Driver's license information

Per KnowBe4 and Proofpoint, the spammers are using a basic template, and all of their emails usually lure users to a site that looks the same, like the one below.

Swedish Police to Use Drones to Watch No-Go Areas Around the Clock

Swedish police in Linköping will deploy drones equipped with cameras around the clock to monitor crime in the city’s so-called no-go areas.

The police say they will be deploying the drones in the neighbourhoods of Ryd and Skäggetorp between October 19th and January 18th to watch for potential drug trafficking.

Ann-Christine Rehnström, the Local Police Area Manager of Linköping, told broadcaster SVT: “Camera surveillance is a complement to the work we are already doing in Skäggetorp and Ryd.”

“We already have our eyes out there in the form of fixed camera surveillance, body-worn cameras, and we now also have drones that we can use and get an overview of the area,” Rehnström said.

“We have trained drone pilots in the local area of Linköping who can use this technical complement to our operations,” she added.

Swedish Police Official: Drug Crime Linked to 98 Per Cent of Bombings https://t.co/bQTpqmK1VP

— Breitbart London (@BreitbartLondon) October 11, 2020

Both areas have been on the Swedish police’s list of so-called “vulnerable areas”, commonly referred to as no-go areas, in the past.

Last year, Linköping’s local government tried to have the list blocked from the public eye, as Skäggetorp was listed among the 23 areas in Sweden deemed “particularly vulnerable”.

Police define the particularly vulnerable areas as “characterised by social problems and a criminal presence which led to a widespread reluctance to participate in the legal process and difficulties for the police to fulfil their mission. The situation is considered acute.”

The city is not the first in Sweden to use the tactic of deploying drones in no-go areas. In December 2019, the multicultural southern city of Malmö deployed drones as part of the nationwide anti-gang police operation known as Operation Rimfrost.

Hunter Scandal Gets Deeper: Kamala, Schumer & Others Listed On Chinese Corporate Docs

A list of “key domestic contacts” for a joint venture including Jim and Hunter Biden and bankrupt CEFC China Energy Co. introduced Joe Biden's current running mate Sen. Kamala Harris, between other notable Democrats.

In an email exclusively with the headline “Phase one domestic contacts/ projects” and dated May 15, 2017, Biden’s sibling, Jim Biden, shared a list of “key domestic contacts for phase one target projects.”

The list, introduced Harris, D-Calif.; Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y.; Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn.; Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif.; Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y.; New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo; New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio; former Virginia Gov. Terry McCauliffe, with others.

It is unclear if any of the Democrats were ever talked of the “target projects.”

The email was mailed from Jim to Hunter Biden, Tony Bobulinski, Rob Walker, and James Gilliar.

Bobulinski was an institutional investor who was obtained by the Biden family to manage their joint-venture with now-bankrupt CEFC China Energy Co.

Bobulinski is a former Lieutenant in the U.S. Navy and worked as the CEO of SinoHawk Holdings, which he explained was the partnership linking the CEFC/ Chairman Ye and the Biden family.

“I was brought into the company to be the CEO by James Gilliar and Hunter Biden,” Bobulinski stated. “The reference to “the Big Guy” in the much-publicized May 13, 2017 email is in fact a reference to Joe Biden. The other “JB” referenced in that email is Jim Biden,

Joe's brother.”

Bobulinski was pointing to an email, dated May 13, 2017, which involved a conversation of “remuneration packages” for six people in a business deal with a Chinese energy firm. The email seemed to identify Biden as “Chair / Vice Chair depending on agreement with CEFC,” in an obvious reference to now-bankrupt CEFC China Energy Co.

The email introduces a note that “Hunter has some office expectations he will elaborate.” A proposed equity split references “20” for “H” and “10 held by H for the big guy?” with no more details.

The Biden campaign has announced it has published the former vice president’s tax documents and returns, which do not indicate any association with Chinese investments. Harris's office did not instantly reply to a request for comment.

Bobulinski said in a statement “Hunter Biden called his dad ‘the Big Guy’ or ‘my Chairman,’ and frequently referenced asking him for his sign-off or advice on various potential deals that we were discussing.”

“I’ve seen Vice President Biden saying he never talked to Hunter about his business,” Bobulinski continued “I’ve seen firsthand that that’s not true, because it wasn’t just Hunter’s business, they said they were putting the Biden family name and its legacy on the line."

Relentless Trump: Names Judge To Replace Barrett’s Vacant Seat On Seventh Circuit

President Trump. determined to use his power while in office to strengthen the conservative tenor in the judiciary around the nation, is wasting no time finding a replacement for the seat likely to be vacated by the ascension of Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court.

Trump has nominated a replacement for the soon-to-be empty seat on Seventh Circuit Court Appeals: Thomas Kirsch, 46, presently the U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Indiana. Kirsch graduated from Harvard Law School and served as counsel to the Assistant Attorney General in charge of the DOJ’s Office of Legal Policy, Powerline notes, adding, “The Senate approved Kirsch’s nomination for U.S. Attorney by a voice vote. This time around, he will face fierce opposition from Democrats. However, Republicans have the votes to confirm Kirsch and enough time (approximately two months) in which to get it done.”

The Chicago Tribune reported that Kirsch has “built a reputation for aggressively pursuing public corruption and gang crimes. Earlier this year, Kirsch announced wire fraud charges against longtime Whiting Mayor Joseph Stahura alleging he misused campaign funds for personal gain. In 2019, his office brought sweeping racketeering charges against 17 members of the Latin Dragons street gang alleging they were responsible for 11 murders and dozens of other shootings, stabbings and assaults.”

Trump has been joined in his mammoth effort to change the judiciary by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. In February, after the Senate acquitted President Trump in his impeachment trail, McConnell immediately filed cloture on a number of judges as he continued his relentless march toward remaking America’s judiciary. The judges included Andrew Lynn Brasher to be U.S. Circuit Judge for the Eleventh Circuit, Joshua M. Kindred to be U.S. District Judge for the District of Alaska, Matthew Thomas Schelp to be U.S. District Judge for the Eastern District of Missouri, John Fitzgerald Kness to be U.S. District Judge for the Northern District of Illinois, and Philip M. Halpern to be U.S. District Judge for the Southern District of New York.

In March 2019, Politico reported that McConnell was intent on moving as quickly as he could to get conservative judges confirmed:

The Senate is on track to confirm the 34th Circuit Court judge of Trump’s presidency in the next week and the GOP has three more ready for floor action; that would give Trump roughly 20 percent of the Circuit Court seats in the country after just two years in office. At this rate, McConnell and Trump could leave few, if any, vacancies there for a potential Democratic president in 2021.

Even more alarming for Democrats, the GOP is also preparing to pull the trigger on the “nuclear option” and change Senate rules once again with a simple majority to allow much quicker confirmation of lower court judges in the coming months. …

Trump currently has 128 District Court vacancies to fill, and each one can take multiple days under current rules if any senator demands a delay; if Republicans change the rules, Trump could conceivably fill most of those over the next 20 months.

MSM BEGINS PROPAGATING A “THIRD WAVE” OF COVID-19

The mainstream media has switched from reporting on the surge in coronavirus cases to propagating a “third wave” of COVID-19. The MSM is calling the outlook “dire” as a way to panic the masses.

At this point, it would be a complete shock if we didn’t go into another lockdown. Be ready, because the predictive programming is there once again.

With more than 40 million reported cases globally and 1.1 million deaths, the pandemic shows no sign of slowing down. In Ireland, a lockdown has been reimposed, as other pockets of Europe weigh similar restrictions again.

In the U.S., more than 8.2 million cases and more than 220,000 deaths have been reported to-date. While the rate of deaths has slowed, there is still a concern for some of the most vulnerable populations, where increasingly asymptomatic cases are being reported. Meanwhile, the case count has already hit more than 60,000 daily, with all regions of the country affected. –Yahoo

Dr. Leo Nissola, an immunotherapy scientist at Parker Institute in San Francisco, told Yahoo Finance: “Things are not looking pretty. The most difficult phase of the epidemic is ahead of us,” he said.

Axios reported that the “third wave is gaining steam.” The outlet further reported that high positivity rates indicate a worsening outbreak, and put together with the rise in cases and hospitalizations across the country, suggest that the U.S. is in bad shape. The big picture then, according to MSM, is that the virus is spreading throughout the U.S. It’s not concentrated in any one region, as it was during the previous waves.

Because they don’t have “isolated pockets of infections,” another more brutal lockdown could be coming. In fact, at this point, it would be shocking if they don’t try to pull off another one. Especially considering this little blurb from Axios:

This all means more deaths, more economic devastation, and more isolation and psychological strain. If we’d gotten the virus under control during the summer, we’d have saved ourselves from a lot of this coming pain.

Brace yourselves. Prepare. Remain alert. They are pushing this. This “third wave” reporting has ramped up substantially in the past 24 hours. People didn’t buy the second wave narrative, but will they fall for this one? Will something more sinister happen? Will the virus become more deadly? Everything is possible right now. Use discernment, and most of all, check your preps and make sure you have what you need. Something is coming.

If You Feel Like Something Really, Really Bad Is About To Happen, You Are Definitely Not Alone

Epstein And Bill Clinton Flew Together, Maxwell Confirms In Newly Released Deposition

Ghislaine Maxwell, a longtime associate of deceased sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, confirmed in a newly unsealed 2016 deposition that she had flown together with Epstein and former President Bill Clinton.

The deposition, from a now-settled civil defamation lawsuit against Maxwell by accuser Virginia Giuffre, contains countless instances of Maxwell evading lawyers’ questions. Epstein described Maxwell—a longtime member of Epstein’s inner circle—as his “best friend” in a 2003 Vanity Fair piece.

At one point in the deposition, Maxwell is asked by Guiffre’s lawyer Sigrid McCawley: “You did fly on planes, Jeffrey Epstein’s planes with President Clinton, is that correct?”

Maxwell replied: “I have flown, yes.”

Maxwell has long been accused of helping groom minor girls for Epstein. Multiple alleged victims of Epstein have accused Maxwell of luring them into his trafficking circle, where they said they were sexually abused by him and other powerful people.

In follow up questions, Maxwell was asked: “When you were on the plane with Jeffrey and President Clinton, did you observe Jeffrey and [REDACTED] talking?”

“I’m sure they did,” Maxwell replied.

When asked if Epstein and the individual whose name was redacted seemed friendly, Maxwell said “I don’t recollect.”

Laura Menninger, Maxwell’s attorney, didn’t immediately respond to an emailed request for comment from The Epoch Times.

Clinton flew on Epstein’s jet, infamously dubbed the “Lolita Express,” at least 26 times, according to records obtained by Fox News in 2016. In a July, 2019 statement, Clinton denied ever visiting Epstein’s private island and said he had only traveled on the plane four times.

Last year, a day before Epstein was found dead in his cell, nearly 2,000 pages of documents relating to him were unsealed, including claims from Giuffre that she was directed by Maxwell to have sex with a number of rich and powerful men, including Epstein.

In those unsealed documents, a section titled “New York Presbyterian Hospital Records” detailed how Giuffre had “provided extensive medical records in this case, including medical records from the time when Defendant was sexually abusing and trafficking her.”

According to the 2016 transcript, which contained countless blacked out redactions, Maxwell was asked about her relationship with Epstein and of the allegations by Giuffre.

Yes, There Is a World Zionist Congress – and It’s Meeting Now

Some have the impression that ‘world Zionism’ is an antisemitic conspiracy theory… even while the World Zionist Congress is in session, with 720 delegates from over 30 countries.

Menifee, CA (IAK) — I’m sometimes astounded at the fact that a major political movement over a century old is so little known among Americans – especially since it has had a momentous impact on the world in general and on the U.S. in particular, causing multiple wars, vast population displacement, and global instability.

In my travels around the US, I’ve found that most Americans know extremely little about Zionism. I would guess that the vast majority of Americans could not define the term (that was certainly my situation for most of my life), and that a great many may not have even heard of it.

And among those who have heard the term, many may think it refers to some antisemitic conspiracy theory.

The fact is, however, that Zionism – according to the dictionary, “a worldwide Jewish movement that resulted in the establishment and development of the state of Israel and that now supports the state of Israel as a Jewish homeland” – is both very real and extremely significant.

Zionism succeeded in establishing the state of Israel in 1948 after decades of sometimes open and sometimes covert efforts. It promoted a successful, though extremely false, slogan – “a land without a people for a people without a land” – and succeeded in perpetrating one of the major hoaxes of the 20th century, in which victims (indigenous Palestinians) were designated aggressors, and aggressors (Zionist colonists) were portrayed as victims (as documented by diverse authors, and perpetrated through the silencing of others).

And today this movement contains numerous powerful international entities (see the list below), while remaining largely invisible to millions of citizens of the country that gives Israel massive amounts of money, shields Israel internationally, and has fought at least one war (against Iraq) on Israel’s behalf.

The dictionary definition captures only the simplest meaning of the word, but not its deep impact: how Israel was established and what supporting Israel today enables.

As numerous historians have documented, Israel was established through a war of ethnic cleansing, in the words of a major Israeli historian, in which approximately 750,000 men, women, and children were violently expelled. Hundreds of villages were destroyed and much of the indigenous population was displaced, their ancestral homes and land confiscated and the former owners made into penniless refugees.

Today, in its pursuit of the Jewish identity mentioned in the definition, Israel continues to confiscate Palestinian land, actively discriminates against the remnants of the non-Jewish population that remain in the area, and holds the four and a half million people in the remaining portion of their land (the West Bank and Gaza), in two virtual prisons, their ability to leave and to return to their homes controlled by Israel.

Palestinian villages are invaded daily, people terrorized and abducted, homes and crops are regularly destroyed; for over a year there was a weekly mass demonstration during which Israeli forces shot unarmed demonstrators every week. (To see these actions go here.)

The US is Covertly Helping the Taliban Fight ISIS in Afghanistan

JSOC unit called the 'Taliban Air Force' provides the group with air support

A report published by The Washington Post on Thursday revealed that the US has been secretly providing the Taliban with air support in its fight against ISIS in Afghanistan’s northeastern Kunar Province.

The campaign is being carried out by the Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC), the secretive counterterrorism task force. “What we’re doing with the strikes against ISIS is helping the Taliban move,” a member of JSOC told the Post.

In the Fall and Winter of 2019, President Trump took a hardline approach with the Taliban to negotiate the Doha peace deal that was signed in February of this year. During that time, while the US was regularly bombing the Taliban, JSOC provided the group with air support in Kunar.

The team conducting this mission inside JSOC is known as the “Taliban Air Force.” The unit does not communicate directly with Taliban commanders but instead listens in on their communications to track the group.

Members of the JSOC task force told the Post that they could tell when and where the Taliban would be preparing an offensive against ISIS. JSOC targets ISIS positions using Reaper drones and other military aircraft. The Taliban fighters on the ground are willing to accept the support and wait to attack ISIS positions until they see the missiles and hear the explosions.

US military officials have previously mentioned US support for the Taliban without disclosing any details. In March, Gen. Frank McKenzie, the top US commander in Afghanistan, said the US is providing the Taliban with “limited support” in the group’s fight against ISIS.

As per the US-Taliban peace deal, the Taliban committed to preventing groups like ISIS from planning or launching international terror attacks from Afghanistan. But the Afghanistan branch of ISIS is believed to be mostly made up of local fighters, not international terrorists.

Judge Permits Sex Assault Case Against Joint Chiefs Vice Chairman

LOS ANGELES — A federal judge on Thursday refused to dismiss a lawsuit alleging the vice chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff sexually assaulted a former top aide during a Southern California trip.

Air Force Gen. John Hyten has denied the allegations brought by former Army Col. Kathryn Spletstoser that he attacked her during a December 2017 trip to attend the Reagan National Defense Forum at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, northwest of Los Angeles.

At the time, Hyten commanded the United States Strategic Command, known at STRATCOM.

The Associated Press generally does not identify victims of alleged sexual assault. But Spletstoser has allowed her name to be used.

Judge Michael W. Fitzgerald in Los Angeles rejected defense motions to dismiss the case for lack of jurisdiction or to move the case to Nebraska, where STRATCOM is based.

A phone call and email seeking comment from Hyten or his lawyers were not immediately returned.

However Hyten, who was confirmed last September as the nation's second highest-ranking military officer, flatly denied Spletstoser's claims during his confirmation hearing.

Spletstoser served in the Army for 28 years and carried out four combat tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. Her assault and sexual battery lawsuit alleged that while staying at a hotel during the Simi Valley trip, Hyten grabbed her, kissed her, fondled her buttocks and rubbed himself against her.

The lawsuit was amended from an original complaint that alleged Hyten sexually assaulted her at least nine times in 2017, including during trips to California, London, South Korea and elsewhere and that he retaliated against for refusing his advances by harming her career and eventually forcing her retirement.

Spletstoser reported the allegations after Hyten’s nomination. She told the AP last year that she decided she couldn’t live with the idea that Hyten might assault someone else if he was confirmed for the job.

The Air Force investigated the woman’s allegations and found there was insufficient evidence to charge the general or recommend any administrative punishment.

Oklahoma congresswoman Kendra Horn (D.) raised hundreds of thousands of dollars in dark money for a pair of progressive advocacy groups, kickstarting her 2018 run for office. The Democrat now claims to be "fundamentally opposed" to dark money.

Horn served as executive director of Sally's List—a group that aims to "train, support, and elect progressive women to public office in Oklahoma"—from 2015 to 2017, according to the Oklahoma Daily. The Democrat also founded Women Lead Oklahoma in 2015, a nonprofit that "encourages women to participate in civic life." With Horn at the helm, the groups combined to raise nearly $540,000 without disclosing a single donor on their tax forms.

Horn placed financial transparency at the center of her 2018 campaign against former Republican congressman Steve Russell, claiming she would "get dark money out of our elections" to "restore a balance of power." The Democrat's rhetoric continued as a member of Congress—after defeating Russell by less than 2 points, Horn said she was "fundamentally opposed" to conservative dark money groups criticizing her 2019 vote to impeach President Donald Trump.

"These dark money groups—we don't know who's behind them, they don't have to report who's given them money," Horn told the Oklahoman. "That's why I'm fundamentally opposed to them."

But dark money played a key role in Horn's political ascent to Congress. Roughly one-quarter of the dark money Horn raised for the two groups—more than $131,000—went to the Democrat directly, according to tax forms reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon. The groups also allowed Horn to form lucrative relationships with wealthy business leaders in the state. Sonic Drive-In president Claudia San Pedro contributed thousands of dollars to Horn's campaign after speaking at a Women Lead Oklahoma luncheon in March 2018. Oklahoma trial attorney Susan Carns Curtiss, who also addressed the group at a 2018 event, has given Horn thousands since 2017.

Horn did not respond to a request for comment.

FARRELL: Censorship Of The Biden Story

From Chris Farrell’s Op-Ed for The Daily Caller:

The destruction of journalistic ethics is nearly complete. The same group of reporters and pundits who rushed to report every rumor, every speculation, every lie about Donald Trump for the last four years now close ranks and refuse to report the emerging allegations about the Biden family.

Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptops have been a treasure trove of inside information about his reported influence peddling and shady deals, based entirely on his status as son of the vice president. It is obvious that Joe Biden supported his son’s dealings, and it may also be the case that the “big guy” directly profited from them. And it is now beyond question that Joe Biden used the power of his office to bully Ukraine to end an investigation into corruption at the energy firm Burisma, where his son inexplicably was a board member.

The New York Post has brought some of this evidence to light, or at least tried to. The Biden campaign has not denied that the laptop and its contents are genuine, which they would have done quickly had it been bogus. And former Hunter Biden associate Bevan Cooney has given access to 26,000 additional emails that reportedly substantiate what has been released. You would think that other reporters and news outlets would be clamoring for access to the rest of the information. Isn’t that what credible journalists do, ferret out the facts, without fear or favor?

McConnell says 'no concerns' about health, after reporters ask about bruised, bandaged hands

The Senate Majority Leader has been seen with apparently bandaged and bruised hands this week

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Thursday that there are "no concerns" about his health, after appearing on Capitol Hill with several bandages on his apparently bruised hands.

McConnell, who is running for his seventh term in the Senate, was asked by a reporter whether there was anything the public should know.

"Of course not," the Kentucky Republican replied.

When a second reporter inquired, McConnell, who is 78 and survived polio as a child, said there were "no concerns."

The longtime politician has maintained his usual robust schedule this week, speaking daily from the Senate floor, hosting his regular Tuesday press conference, attending party lunches, and completing a series of television interviews. He said after the coronavirus outbreak at the White House that he has limited his visits there over concerns about health-safety precautions.

Israel will not oppose US sale of f-35's to UAE

Joint statement by the PM's Office and Defense

Minsitry says Gantz's trip to Washington secured Israel's QME despite sale of advanced stealth fighter

Israel will not oppose the sale of F-35s to the United Arab Emirates, Jerusalem announced on Friday night.

The joint announcement by the offices of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Benny Gantz came after Gantz returned from Washington where he met with his US counterpart Mark Esper and signed a deal that ensures Israel’s qualitative military edge in the region.

The agreement that was signed between Jerusalem and Washington, the statement said, will enable long-term procurement plans that will provide Israel with advanced weapons systems, “significantly upgrade its military capabilities, fortify Israel’s security and regional military superiority and preserve its qualitative military edge in the coming decades.”

During Gantz’s whirlwind visit, he was informed that Washington plans to notify Congress in the near future of its intention to supply the UAE with “certain weapons systems,” likely the advanced F-35 stealth fighter jet.

Gantz flew to Washington on Wednesday night for a “security meeting” with his US counterpart as well as discussions with other Pentagon officials. It was his second flight to the US Capitol in a month following the normalization of ties with the United Arab Emirates which has made clear that it wants to procure the F-35 stealth fighter jet.

The possible sale has caused an uproar in Israel and though Washington has been selling Abu Dhabi millions in military deals, they have been bound to preserve Israel’s qualitative military edge (QME) in the Middle East before selling any advanced weaponry to regional states.

In another statement released by Gantz’s office, he claimed that Netanyahu knew about the sale of the F-35 to Abu Dhabi during the negotiations but kept it hidden from the defense establishment.

“The Defense Minister considers achieving peace and regional stability a strategic value and therefore led an independent action” with the Trump administration to ensure both the normalization deal with the UAE and Israel’s security, the statement said.

During his visit, the two signed a joint declaration confirming Washington's strategic commitment to maintaining Israel's qualitative military edge in the Middle East and speaking to reporters, a senior defense source said that the document signed was a general commitment and that discussions were ongoing over what Washington will provide Jerusalem to offset the sale of the F-35 to the UAE.

“This is not the end of the story,” said the source, adding that the specifics of “what we are getting and what we aren’t getting and what they’ll sell us later” would be determined in future discussions.

The source confirmed however that the V-22 Osprey tiltrotor aircraft that Israel has wanted to procure for several years is once again being considered.

Two whistleblowers fired in Texas attorney general's office

Lacey Mase, one of the top aides who accused Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton of crimes including bribery and abuse of office, has been fired, she told The Texas Tribune on Tuesday evening.

“It was not voluntary,” she said, but declined to comment further.

Mase was hired in 2011 and worked most recently as the deputy attorney general for administration. Paxton's office did not respond to a request for comment Tuesday.

Top aides say Paxton has used the power of his office to serve the interests of a political donor, Nate Paul. Several employees in his office brought concerns to law enforcement.

They wrote in an Oct. 1 letter to the agency’s human resources department that they had a “good faith belief that the attorney general is violating federal and/or state law including prohibitions related to improper influence, abuse of office, bribery and other potential criminal offenses.”

Since then, one of the top aides — Jeff Mateer, who previously spent years as Paxton’s top deputy — has resigned, and another, Mark Penley, has been placed on leave.

Paxton has dismissed the scandal as “rogue employees” wielding “false allegations” and said he will not resign, though some in his party have called on him to do so.

Mase’s personnel file, obtained through a public records request, shows she rose quickly through the agency’s ranks, earning frequent promotions. She was promoted as recently as Sept. 1, 2019, earning a nearly 12% pay bump to $205,000 annually. When Mase was promoted in April 2018, a supervisor wrote that she “consistently exceeded standards” in all her roles at the agency. Her salary has multiplied over the past few years, from $50,000 in 2013 to more than $200,000 most recently.

yees who make good faith reports of violations of law by their employer to an appropriate law enforcement authority,” according to the Texas attorney general’s website. “An employer may not suspend or terminate the employment of, or take other adverse personnel action against, a public employee who makes a report under the Act.”

Firing Mase so soon after she and the other top aides made their report is “suspicious,” said Jason Smith, a North Texas employment attorney who has handled whistleblower cases and who worked in the attorney general’s office in the 1990s.

“This looks and smells like classic whistleblower retaliation,” Smith said. “This situation looks like what the Texas Whistleblower Act was designed to prevent. And the timing looks bad.”

Smith said the aides appear to have taken all the proper steps to invoke whistleblower protections, reporting suspect behavior to “an appropriate law enforcement authority” as specified in the law, and making their employer aware of the allegations through the letter to human resources. The aides used that exact language — “appropriate law enforcement authority” — in their Oct. 1 letter to the agency.

Corrupt DC Judge Emmet Sullivan Delays General Flynn Case Again – Demands DOJ Sign Off on Evidence

The wholly corrupt judge in the General Flynn case, Judge Emmet Sullivan, has delayed Flynn’s right to a speedy trial and continues to abuse the General who the DOJ admitted a half a year ago was wrongfully prosecuted.

While General Flynn endures years of Deep State prosecutorial abuse based on no crimes and made up crimes and deep state lies, others like Hunter Biden are allowed to walk freely after taking millions from foreign entities in shady deals while Barack Obama was President.

American general and war hero, General Michael Flynn obtained attorneys from Covington to represent him in the filing of a FARA form in December of 2016, shortly after the 2016 election. A few months later, General Flynn’s life was turned upside down and he eventually hired Covington again, but this time to represent him on charges being leveled against him by the Mueller gang. Eventually, the Covington lawyers working for the General coerced him to sign a guilty plea on charges he did not believe he was guilty of. He agreed to the plea in part because the Mueller gang was threatening his son. The Mueller gang agreed with the Covington lawyers to not prosecute Flynn’s son on bogus charges if the General agreed to lying to the FBI. It was all a set up.

After millions in legal fees, and untold negative stories in the MSM, General Flynn obtained new lawyers and the government finally released Brady documents showing he committed no crimes. The documents showed he was set up and the courts were lied to.

When this occurred General Flynn released an explanation for his actions and provided an idea of what he had endured over the past few years in a tweet.

Our media and government agencies are corrupt.

Only President Donald Trump can address this and will address this. We know it because Biden ignores it and he’s part of it. Please continue your prayers for America and the Flynn family.

Per Chinese Reporters Hunter Biden Went to Beijing, Secretly Met with CCP Spy and Asked for Mansion and Women

A report out of Asia claims that Hunter Biden met with a CCP spy in Beijing and asked for millions for a house and for women.

Gnews.org reports that Hunter Biden engaged in illicit actions in Beijing with the CCP. Reporters in Asia discussed recent attacks on Rudy Giuliani and Hunter Biden’s actions in Beijing.

In regards to Rudy, the reporters shared that the accusations against Rudy Giuliani were not true. Giuliani acted appropriately in front of a so called 15-year-old girl, not inappropriately. [We now know that the attack on Rudy by the left after Rudy was involved in the release of Hunter Biden emails were bogus. The girl he was with was in her 20’s and Rudy was tucking his shirt in, nothing more.] The reporters claimed, “They are trying so hard to smear Mr. Giuliani.”

Next the reporters discussed Hunter Biden. They shared the following:

When Hunter Biden went with Joe for the first time [to Beijing] guess who they met with? He met with Che Feng in Pangu Hotel. Che Feng went to meet with Hunter with assigned task which was to befriend Hunter. To Che’s total surprise, the first word Hunter said when he sat down was, “I am so poor. How can I get money? I need money. I wanted a house but it costs 100-200 million dollars.”

Something like this. Hunter also told Che that he was interested in hot girls and asked if Che could introduce some to him. In the end, just that cost over 1 million RMB (150,000USD Equivalent). Che Feng later recalled that he was very surprised by how easy it was to compromise Hunter.
