Special Interests Funded $110K-Plus of Globetrotting Lavish Travel for Democrat Ron Kind

Democrat Rep. Ron Kind (D-WI) has taken more than $110,000 worth of special interest-funded lavish trips, filings with the U.S. House Ethics Committee reveal.

Documents show that between March 2001 and August 2019, Kind took at least 14 trips valued at $110,665—all funded by special interest groups. He has taken trips everywhere from Tel Aviv to Geneva to Rome to Munich to Fort Lauderdale to New Orleans to Houston to Seattle and more, funded by various different special interest groups and corporations.

The documents, while filed with the House Ethics Committee as required by congressional ethics regulations, have not been publicly reported until now. Kind’s office declined to make the congressman available for an interview to explain his high-class globetrotting on special interest groups’ dimes, and would not provide a comment in response to these revelations. It’s worth noting that instead of doing her job and answering press inquiries about her boss’s extravagant travel, Kind’s congressional office communications director, Sarah Abel, has been firing off nasty tweets and retweets about Republicans in the past two days since Breitbart News began inquiring about this with her.

Perhaps most importantly, Kind represents Wisconsin’s third congressional district—a battleground seat that Democrats are particularly worried they may lose should Kind decide against seeking reelection or should he lose if he faces the voters again. Former President Donald Trump won this district twice, both in 2016 and 2020, but Republicans did not flip it. Retired Navy SEAL Derrick Van Orden, who was the GOP nominee for the seat in 2020 and nearly defeated Kind last year, is running again against the endangered Democrat. Democrats are particularly afraid that Kind may decide to either retire after his decades in Congress, forgoing reelection and thereby all but surrendering the key seat to Republicans, or run for another office such as the U.S. Senate in Wisconsin, thereby also surrendering the House seat. The pressure is building on Kind to make a move, and soon, all while scandals torment the vulnerable House Democrat.

Evidence: Voting Machines Had Unauthorized Implant to Circumvent Security in Michigan

Matthew DePerno, constitutional attorney in Michigan, revealed the forensic evidence shows Dominion voting machines had an unauthorized implant installed to circumvent its own security features.

DePerno said forensic images obtained in December 2020 show machines were connected to the internet, and evidence of “even remnants of foreign connections.”

“We’re the only case in the country that’s been actually able to look at forensic images,” he told War Room, Wednesday. “Dec. 6, 2020 we went into Antrim County and collected forensic images of [Dominion’s] election management system. We’ve been studying them since that time.”

DePerno and his team say they have “proof that voting machines used in the 2020 elections can be compromised and votes easily transferred from one candidate to another.”

DePerno said they uncovered a Microsoft “implant” installed on the machines that was not authorized by the election commission, “which means the actual system itself would be decertified.”

“You can use this type of program go directly in the database and circumvent any of these terrible easy security features Dominion has and manipulate any system they have,” he said.

“We’ve shown how unsecure they are,” DePerno said.

“Dominion wants to create this narrative which is a false narrative that their system is secured,” he said.

DePerno questioned the company’s legitimacy, when their machines could be so easily compromised.

“If you are a legitimate software company…that would be used in a national election there is no way that you would ever program a system that works like this,” he said.

DePerno said “it’s a complete lie” that his case in Michigan has no traction, or evidence.

“We have plenty of traction in this case, the evidence we have is actual evidence, it’s been verified over and over again,” he said.

“We put it into the court record,” Deperno said. “It’s right there for everyone to see.”

Republican Senator Demands Answers From WH For Hunter Biden’s Continued Stake In Chinese Firm

Republican Montana Sen. Steve Daines sent a Wednesday letter to President Joe Biden asking him about his son, Hunter Biden, who continues to hold a minority stake in a Chinese private equity firm 100 days into Biden’s term, the Daily Caller has learned.

Hunter Biden holds a 10% equity stake in BHR Partners through his company, Skaneateles LLC, according to business records about Chinese corporations based on China’s National Credit Information Publicity System reviewed by the Daily Caller News Foundation (DCNF).

Daines urged the president to make sure Hunter Biden is fully divested from the Chinese private equity firm and mentioned the DCNF’s reporting on Hunter Biden’s investments in BHR Partners.

“I write regarding reports of potential conflicts of interest with members of your family and foreign investments that could result in undue influence on U.S. government policy or officials. As President of the United States, it is critical to avoid any appearance of conflict of interests with foreign governments, particularly adversaries such as the People’s Republic of China,” Daines writes in the letter.

“As you know, in December you stated: ‘My son, my family will not be involved in any business, any enterprise, that is in conflict with or appears to be in conflict, with the appropriate distance from, the presidency and government.’ Despite this pledge, recent reports have shown that Hunter Biden has maintained investments in BHR Partners, which is owned in part by the Bank of China,” he continued.

“I am concerned that these investments run contrary to your pledge and could result in undue influence on the U.S. government. I urge you to ensure your family is fully divested from such firms and honor the commitments you have made to mitigate any risk or appearance of conflicts of interest,” Daines concluded.

Vaccine passports the 'next step', says Scott Morrison

Prime Minister Scott Morrison is open to the idea of "vaccine passports" to allow people who have had their shots to travel more freely.

He said the topic was something his medical expert panel was "working on right now"

"I think that is the next step, but I do think that next step is some way away," Mr Morrison told 3AW.

"If you're fully vaccinated, that you would be able to travel, certainly around Australia, but maybe overseas, without the need for hotel quarantine."

Before signing off on vaccine passports, Mr Morrison said more evidence was needed that the shots protect against coronavirus transmissibility.

He would also need to be satisfied that people could reliably isolate at home.

Vaccines are now available to people older than 50.

So far, 2.4 million people have got a coronavirus vaccine first-shot in Australia.

Meanwhile, the India travel suspension is "looking good" to end on May 15 as scheduled.

Mr Morrison reiterated that the "pause" was always a temporary arrangement.

"I can tell you the pause is working. It was the right decision for Australia's health and safety," he said.

"I'm very confident that after the 15th of May, those repatriation flights are able to be restored."

Since the ban was put in place, hundreds of people in Australia have applied to go to India.

UnitingCare cyber attack claimed by notorious ransom gang REvil/Sodin

Hackers claiming responsibility for an attack on health and community care provider UnitingCare Queensland have been revealed as one of the most notorious cyber ransom gangs in the world.

Key points:

The hackers who claimed responsibility are REvil/Sodin

They have apparently attacked major companies like Apple

UnitingCare says there's no evidence patients' health and safety has been compromised

Last week, the Queensland healthcare provider fell victim to the cyber attack, which affected its hospitals and aged care homes.

It runs the Wesley and St Andrew's Hospitals in Brisbane, St Stephen's Hospital in Hervey Bay and the Buderim Private Hospital on the Sunshine Coast, and dozens of aged care and disability services throughout the state.

A patient last week told the ABC they knew immediatly there was a problem when the wi-fi stopped working on April 25, then they noticed staff struggling with communication and accessing patient records.

The attack has led to UnitingCare Queensland being suspended from the national My Health Record system, which allows patients to view their records online.

UnitingCare Queensland has released scant information about the attack, but it is thought to involve hackers trying to take possession of systems or important information like patient records and threatening to either destroy or publish them on the dark web, unless the provider pays a ransom.

So who was behind the attack?

UnitingCare on Wednesday confirmed the hack had been claimed by REvil/Sodin.

The gang that has been linked to multiple attacks on high-profile targets across the globe and is thought to have named itself after apocalyptic science fiction horror video game-turned movie, Resident Evil.

The hackers have claimed to have made more than $100 million from their cyber attacks but confirming ransom amounts is difficult as victims do not publicise payments.

Have there been other victims?

Former coach charged with sex assault of Racine student-athletes

MOUNT PLEASANT, Wis. - A former Horlick High School assistant wrestling coach now faces 27 charges, accused of sexually assaulting and taking nude photos of team members.

Mount Pleasant police say 60-year-old Benigno "Benny" Velasquez was trying to have sex with a 15-year-old boy he'd met online who was actually a detective. Once word of that arrest came out, some wrestlers Velasquez coaches nearly a decade ago had a lot more to tell police.

From inside the Racine County Jail, Velasquez's list of charges grew sevenfold since his Feb. 27 arrests. The charges stem from his work as a volunteer assistant wrestling coach at the Racine high school.

Charging documents filed Wednesday, May 5, say once news of his arrest was published, a pair of former wrestlers came forward with more allegations against Velasquez.

Between 2011 and 2012, one accuser told Mount Pleasant police that Velasquez grabbed him more than 100 times, and explained that it appeared Velasquez was also recording the wrestlers as they came out of the shower.

The wrestler said he told an assistant coach about the abuse at practice, but Velasquez was only away from the program for about one week before returning. That assistant coach is now on administrative leave.

In a statement to FOX6 News, the Racine Unified School District called the allegations extremely serious and disturbing. Plus, steps have been taken to ensure Velasquez cannot access any school.

A criminal complaint states a second accuser claims Velasquez groped him and kissed his neck while trying to photograph him in his underwear.

Based on both accounts, police searched Velasquez's home. They found an SD card with 16 images of former high school wrestlers posing naked.

Velasquez now faces the following charges:

1 count: Use of a computer to facilitate a child sex crime

1 count: Child enticement

3 counts: Sexual assault of a child by a person who works or volunteers with children

16 counts: Capturing a nude picture without consent

6 counts: Child porn possession.

Velasquez's bond was set at $25,000 with a preliminary hearing scheduled for May 13.
