Three Developments That Should Nullify Maricopa County 2020 Election and Put Supervisors in Legal Jeopardy — BEFORE THE FORENSIC AUDIT EVEN STARTED

Maricopa County Board of Supervisors

As the Maricopa County forensic audit continues three explosive developments were revealed this week that should land the County Supervisors in legal jeopardy and should nullify the fraudulent election even before the results of the forensic audit are complete.

More corrupt and suspicious acts performed by the Maricopa County election team and/or vendor have come to light.

1 — Arizona GOP Chair Dr. Kelli Ward tweeted out on Wednesday that devices that held data during the election in Maricopa County were sneaked offsite nightly. And it’s not clear who took them at this point!

This violated chain of custody regulations and is highly suspicious.

2 — The Maricopa County Election team admitted this week that they do not have ‘Admin’ access to their county’s voting machines.

Seriously? Then who does? Why did they cede this to the Dominion voting machine company? And how is this legal?

3 — And Maricopa County officials are refusing to turn over routers or router images to the election auditors. They are defying a judge’s orders.

What are they afraid of? And what are they hiding?

Via The Epoch Times.

Any one of these developments could land the Maricopa County Supervisors in hot water.

And, any one of these developments could invalidate the 2020 election in the County.

And the results of the forensic audit have yet to be announced!

“Where Did These ‘Votes’ Come From?” President Trump On Hundreds of Thousands of Ballots Dropped All for Biden the Morning After the Election

Yes, there absolutely was election fraud in the 2020 election, and those in positions to perform ‘real’ audits of the 2020 Election results have a DUTY to do so. We will never forget!

The morning of November 4th, 2020, the morning after the 2020 Election, America already knew that the election in Wisconsin was stolen. Over one hundred thousand votes showed up for Joe Biden mysteriously in the night giving Biden the lead in the state. We knew it was Horsesh*t then:

All of America knew this was garbage and yet today, no complete and accurate audit of these results has taken place.

These events were neither random nor independent. They were intentional fraud used to steal the election.

President Trump knows this as well as most of America. This morning at 10:31, President Trump shared this message:

At 6:31 in the morning on November 4th, a dump of 149,772 votes came in to the State of Michigan. Biden received 96% of those votes and the State miraculously went to him. Has the Michigan State Senate started their review of the Fraudulent Presidential Election of 2020 yet, or are they about to start? If not, they should be run out of office. Likewise, at 3:42 in the morning, a dump of 143,379 votes came in to the state of Wisconsin, also miraculously, given to Biden. Where did these “votes” come from? Both were State Election changing events, and that is on top of the other corruption without even including the fact that neither state got Legislative approval, which is required under the United States Constitution.

Where are the efforts of Republicans in these states to determine what happened? This was clearly no mistake. It was clearly fraud. You don’t have to be an International audit executive to see that these events were a fraud.

Now it’s time to focus on the legislatures in these states who are doing nothing. The people of Arizona stood up and demanded a real audit there. The Arizona Senate is doing a great job listening to its constituents. Time to demand justice.

Not only blood clots? EMA ‘assessing reports’ of AstraZeneca jab link to rare IMMUNE DISORDER

The European Medicines Agency (EMA) is investigating reports of AstraZeneca’s Covid-19 vaccine causing Guillain-Barre syndrome, as the pharmaceutical company remains embroiled in controversy over the jab’s link to blood clotting.

In a meeting this week, the European Medicines Agency’s Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment Committee (PRAC) revealed that it was “assessing reports” of the rare immune system disorder being found in people following vaccination.

“As part of the review of the regular pandemic summary safety reports for Vaxzevria, AstraZeneca’s Covid-19 vaccine, the PRAC is analysing data provided by the marketing authorization holder on cases of Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) reported following vaccination”, the PRAC declared.

“GBS was identified during the marketing authorization process as a possible adverse event requiring specific safety monitoring activities”, the committee continued, adding that it has requested “further detailed data” on the cases and will release new information as it becomes available.

According to the UK’s National Health Service (NHS), Guillain-Barre syndrome is a “very rare and serious condition that affects the nerves”, and can create feelings of numbness, weakness, and pain in those who have it.

Though the NHS advises that Guillain-Barre syndrome is a treatable condition and that “most people will eventually make a full recovery”, it can also be life-threatening and leave those who have had it with “long-term problems”

Following hundreds of cases of blood clotting – and dozens of deaths – AstraZeneca’s Covid-19 vaccine has already been restricted in many countries to older people only.

In the UK, those under the age of 40 are set to be offered an alternative vaccine provided this causes no “delays” in the vaccination program, however the European Medicines Agency maintains that the vaccine’s benefits outweigh the risk for much of the population.

BLM Founder Patrisse Cullors Says It’s “Really Cool” People Compare Her to Chinese Communist Mass Murderer Mao Tse Tung

“Marxist” BLM founder Patrisse Cullors said it’s “really cool” that people compare her to Communist mass murderer Mao Tse Tung.

Mao Tse Tung murdered up to 70 million Chinese last century, according to most accounts in what was called “The Great Leap Forward.”

The National Pulse unearthed a 2010 video of Patrisse Cullors speaking on a panel on “Transformative Organizing Theory.”

Cullors excitedly recalled how a young person once said her book was like “Mao’s Red Book.”

“I was speaking to this young person from Arizona who’s trying to fight SB 1070, and he grabbed [my] book and he said, “It’s like Mao’s Red Book.” And I was like man, that’s what I was thinking, and it was just really cool to hear him make that connection,” Cullors said.

The Chinese were forced to carry around Chairman Mao’s “Little Red Book” and memorize the communist propaganda or face execution.

Patrisse Cullors thinks it’s “cool” that she was compared to mass murderer Mao Tse Tung and the DNC embraces her and BLM.

Bomb blast puts former Maldives president in hospital, as he undergoes surgery to treat shrapnel wounds

Mohamed Nasheed, the former president of the Maldives and the current speaker of the country’s parliament, is undergoing surgery after suffering shrapnel wounds following a bomb blast outside his home on Thursday night.

The injuries were caused when a bomb attached to a motorbike detonated as he left his residence late on Thursday, with the explosion heard across the country’s capital, Male, leaving the 53-year-old with shrapnel wounds.

After he arrived at the medical facility, a spokesperson for Nasheed’s Maldivian Democratic Party confirmed he had been injured but was “stable” amid “ongoing” surgeries.

Footage on social media showed the aftermath of the explosion, with the remains of the damaged motorbike visible and police on the scene to aid those injured.

Bystanders were seen on video providing support to individuals who were caught in the bomb blast, with one person seen on the ground with what appears to be a bandage wrapped around their leg.

After the explosion, the current Maldives president, Ibrahim Mohamed Solih, was seen arriving at the ADK hospital where Nasheed was being treated, having held a cabinet meeting earlier in the day and ahead of a nationally televised address on the situation.

Speaking in the wake of the bomb blast, Solih, who is seen as a close political ally of Nasheed, called the explosion an attack on “democracy and economy”, with security being stepped up around the country’s islands.

AZ Audit Director Ken Bennett: Dominion Refuses to Comply with Subpoena and Turn Over Password to Their Maricopa County Machines

Arizona Audit Director Ken Bennett joined One America News to discuss the latest developments in the Maricopa County forensic audit.

On Thursday The Gateway Pundit reported on this explosive news from Arizona.

The Maricopa County Election Board claimed this week they do not have ‘Admin’ access to their county’s voting machines.

If this is the case, then the County did not own the election process they ceded it to their external vendor.

System administrators are individuals who have access to the systems at their highest levels. These individuals are able to perform all sorts of duties. They are able to perform most all the functions and changes in a system. They have complete and total control and can even delete or alter system logs.

The fact that the County does not have system administrators who have administrative access to the Dominion voting machines is a big concern. By allowing Dominion to have the administration access only, the County has basically turned over the system to the Dominion voting machine system people. There is no IT control here because that’s been ceded to Dominion.

By the way, in general, most frauds that include IT-related processes have at least one IT person involved in the fraud.

In his interview with OAN Ken Bennett said Dominion is refusing to comply with the State Senate’s subpoena and is hiding the second password for their machines.

Dominion was in charge of the Maricopa County election. And now they are refusing to cooperated with a subpoena.

‘Moving in the wrong direction’: White House slams new Florida voting law as ‘built on a lie’

By passing new voting measures that put limitations on absentee voting and enact identification requirements, the White House says Florida is trying to supress voters they “don’t like.”

“Florida is moving in the wrong direction,” White House spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters on Thursday about the new voting laws.

Jean-Pierre went on to call the 2020 presidential election one of the most secure in US history and claimed there was no reason for new voting laws unless one was trying to suppress certain groups from voting.

“The only reason to change the rules right now is if you don't like who voted. And that should be out of bounds,” Jean-Pierre said.

Jean-Pierre reiterated the White House’s support for HR1, a voting bill that passed the House, but is unlikely to find the support it needs in the Senate if it is not drastically changed for Republican support. That bill expands access to mail-in ballots, early voting, and automatic registration.

DeSantis signed the new bill into law on Thursday morning, saying Florida now has “the strongest election integrity measures in the country.”

Similar to Georgia’s recently voting laws, Florida’s legislation places restrictions on ballot drop boxes and absentee voting. Ballot drop boxes will need to be supervised and hours limited to election offices and voting sites. Changes to registration records also require an identification number.

Critics have argued laws in Florida and other states such as Georgia are aimed at preventing minorities from voting, while supporters have said the measures merely ensure a more secure election process.

Goldman Announces Formation Of New Crypto Trading Desk

2018 was not a good year for bitcoin, and for cryptos in general: after hitting an all time high of (only) $20,000 in December of 2017, much of the remainder of 2018 was spent with the crypto bubble deflating, with early crypto investors first casually than fervently taking profits and dragging the price of cryptos ever lower. The punchline came in September, when as we reported at the time Goldman - clearly disappointed with the lack of upside momentum - suspended its fledgling crypto trading desk plans…

But fast forward a little over two years forward when following the 8-fold increase in the price of bitcoin since Goldman's cowardly exit, the bank - which has lost some of its top executives in recent weeks - has made a less than triumphant return and as we reported back in March, had restarted its cryptocurrency trading desk effort and was preparing to deal bitcoin futures and non-deliverable forwards for clients from next week.

As of today, this effort is complete with Goldman's Market Division officially announced the formation of the firm's cryptocurrency trading team which will be part of Goldman's Global Currencies and Emerging Markets unit, and reports directly to Rajesh Venkataramani, the head of Goldman's GCEM Foreign Exchange Options Trading.

As part of the initial launch, Goldman said it had successfully executed Bitcoin NDFs and BTC future trades on the CME on a principal basis, with all cash settling. The bank said that it is selectively onboarding new liquidity providers to help expand the firm's offering.

Furthermore, Bloomberg yesterday reported that as part of its NDF derivative offering, Goldman then protects itself from Bitcoin's volatility by buying and selling Bitcoin futures in block trades on CME Group Inc., using Cumberland DRW as its trading partner. Goldman, which still isn’t active in the Bitcoin spot market, introduced the wagers to clients last month without an announcement.

“Institutional demand continues to grow significantly in this space, and being able to work with partners like Cumberland will help us expand our capabilities,” said Max Minton, Goldman’s Asia-Pacific head of digital assets. The new offering is “paving the way for us to evolve our nascent cash-settled crypto-currency capabilities.”

Melinda Gates reportedly furious over relationship between husband Bill Gates and Jeffrey Epstein

A new report states that Melinda Gates was very uncomfortable with a meeting that took place between her husband, Bill Gates, and late accused pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

The meeting allegedly caused major problems between Bill and Melinda and purportedly damaged their relationship.

The Gateses announced their intent to divorce on social media this week.

What are the details?

According to a Thursday report from the Daily Beast, the couple met with Epstein in 2013 while in New York City.

Gates was still Microsoft's chairman at the time of the meeting.

Following the meeting, Melinda reportedly told her husband that she was furious at the relationship between him and Epstein and felt incredibly uncomfortable with the encounter.

"Gates' friendship with Epstein — who for years was accused of molesting scores of underage girls — still haunts Melinda, according to friends of the couple who spoke to The Daily Beast this week in light of the pair's divorce announcement, which had been weeks in the making," the outlet reported.

Bill reportedly also met with Epstein several times beginning in 2011 to solicit donations for a charitable fund — three years after the late accused pedophile pleaded guilty to soliciting a young girl. He also reportedly rode aboard Epstein's private jet during one occasion in 2013.

Bill has previously said that he never had any business relationships with the late billionaire financier and that he never had any private meetings with Epstein.

In 2019, Bill said, "I met [Epstein]. I didn't have any business relationship or friendship with him. I didn't go to New Mexico or Florida or Palm Beach or any of that. There were people around him who were saying, 'Hey, if you want to raise money for global health and get more philanthropy, he knows a lot of rich people.' Every meeting where I was with him were meetings with men. I was never at any parties or anything like that. He never donated any money to anything that I know about."

The outlet also noted that Boris Nikolic — Harvard Medical school grad and "former adviser to Gates" who was "mysteriously named a backup executor in Epstein's last will and testament" — reportedly acted as a go-between for Bill and Epstein.

The outlet reported that no spokesperson for either Bill or Melinda responded to requests for comments on the report. A spokesperson for Nikolic also did not respond to the outlet's request for a statement.

Biden’s SecDef Says ‘We Don’t Have A Plan’ for Avoiding Chinese Rocket, Hopes It ‘Lands in the Ocean or Someplace Like That’

"We’re hopeful that it will land in a place where it won’t, uh, won't harm anyone, hopefully in the ocean or someplace like that."

Lloyd Austin, the Secretary of Defense under the Biden administration, admitted this week that the regime has zero plan in place for shooting down the debris of a giant Chinese rocket booster if it poses a danger to American citizens, and indicated that the administration’s response to the potential national security threat consists of being “hopeful that it will land in a place where it won’t harm anyone.”

“What is the latest estimate of when and where this Chinese rocket will come down, do you consider it a potential threat to the U.S., and do you have a plan for shooting it down if necessary?” Austin was asked on Thursday.

The former Raytheon employee replied, “The latest estimates that I’ve seen is somewhere between the 8th and 9th, uh, and the experts are still working on that, uh, at this point we don’t have a plan to shoot the rocket down, we’re hopeful that it will land in a place where it won’t, uh, won’t harm anyone, hopefully in the ocean or someplace like that.”

Bill Gates-Funded Company Releases Genetically Modified Mosquitoes in US

Genetically modified mosquitoes have been released for the first time in the United States, as part of an experiment to combat insect-borne diseases such as Dengue fever, yellow fever, and the Zika virus.

UK-based biotechnology firm Oxitec, which is funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, said it released the mosquitoes in six locations in Monroe County’s Florida Keys: two on Cudjoe Key, one on Ramrod Key, and three on Vaca Key.

It’s part of an effort to help tackle a disease-transmitting invasive mosquito population—the Aedes aegypti mosquito species—that’s responsible for “virtually all mosquito-borne diseases transmitted to humans,” according to the company.

These mosquitoes make up about 4 percent of the mosquito population in the Keys, and transmit dengue, Zika, yellow fever, and other human diseases, as well as heartworm and other potentially deadly diseases to pets and other animals.

The experiment is in collaboration with the Florida Keys Mosquito Control District (FKMCD), and was approved by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS), the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and an independent advisory board.

Over the next 12 weeks, less than 12,000 mosquitoes are expected to emerge each week for approximately 12 weeks. Untreated comparison sites will be monitored with mosquito traps on Key Colony Beach, Little Torch Key, and Summerland Key.

If successful, some 20 million additional genetically modified mosquitoes will be released later on in the year.

“We really started looking at this about a decade ago, because we were in the middle of a dengue fever outbreak here in the Florida Keys,” FKMCD executive director Andrea Leal said during a video news conference. “So we’re just very excited to move forward with this partnership, working both with Oxitec and members of the community.”

The insects released by the biotechnology firm are all male, as they do not bite. They are expected to mate with the local biting female mosquitoes, and in doing so, they will pass on a lethal gene that will ensure their female offspring die before reaching maturity.

According to Quartz, areas including Malaysia, Brazil, the Cayman Islands, and Panama, where similar experiments have been carried out, have seen mosquito populations drop by as much as 90 percent.

The project has faced backlash from residents, who say that their consent was not sought for the experiment.

HANDOUT: Joe Biden to Give Reparations to Illegals Deported Under President Trump

The ACLU is working with the Biden administration to give "compensation" to illegal immigrants.

Immigration activists are working to pressure President Joe Biden to provide amnesty and reparations to illegal immigrants and their families who were deported under the Trump administration.

Lee Gelernt, a lawyer with the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), informed NBC News that “The ACLU is in settlement negotiations with the Biden administration to provide full relief to the thousands of separated families, not just reunification in the U.S. but permanent status, compensation and social services.” In other words, the ACLU and Biden regime are working to give illegal immigrants free monetary compensation and a path to citizenship.

Similarly, a task force in the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is reported to be “working to develop a system for processing and reunifying over a thousand families and to set up a system to provide mental health support and stability to thousands more families who are…still trying to heal from the trauma caused by their separation.” The spokesperson went on to say that this work is “only the beginning,” and disclosed that they are working with private corporations, NGOs, and immigration activists to do this work, presumably including activists at the ACLU.

The move comes as Biden and the left continue to ignore the border crisis. Since his inauguration, illegal immigration has skyrocketed, and resources needed to secure our border are dangerously overstretched. With this latest move by the Biden administration, he is signaling that those who break our immigration laws will be rewarded, and potentially causing an even higher surge of illegals to cross the border.

This is also an example of the Biden regime playing identity politics in order to dilute the voting power of his political opponents. According to the Pew Research Center, immigrants overwhelmingly support democrats and their policies. Thus, offering a pathway to citizenship and monetary compensation to illegal immigrants is an easy way to ensure more democratic voters in the future. Similarly, as National File previously reported, Biden is strengthening Obama-era policies which would put Section 8 Housing into traditionally conservative suburbs, which is likewise an unfair way to increase support for the Democrat Party.

Giving citizenship to immigrants who will overwhelming vote democrat in order to dilute the voting power of Americans is exactly what Tucker Carlson warned about last month, and roundly criticized for by the radical left.

GOP Rep. Cammack Details How Cartels Are Using Facebook to Smuggle Illegal Immigrants — ‘It’s Absolutely Nuts’

Friday on FNC’s “Fox & Friends,” Rep. Kat Cammack (R-FL) discussed her recent letter scolding Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg for allowing human smugglers and cartels to “openly” operate on the social media platform.

Cammack said while visiting the border, she found a “disturbing trend” from immigrants that they coordinated the logistics of entering the United States illegally through Facebook.

“It’s wild. It is absolutely unconscionable to think that it is happening,” Cammack emphasized. “But I have got to tell you my very first border trip we had just gotten to the Donna processing facility, and there was a busload of very young children and parents with children under the age of six. And I spoke to a 15-year-old girl. I said, where are you from? She said Guatemala. I said, how did you know to come here? And she said Facebook. I hadn’t been but five minutes in the Donna processing facility when I heard the term Facebook. And as I went through the facility, I kept hearing from kids, from adults — Facebook. Yes. We coordinated logistics through Facebook. We paid through Facebook. We talked on WhatsApp, which is owned by Facebook. And it was a disturbing trend. And when I started talking with HSI and some of the Border Patrol agents, they themselves have seen this firsthand.”

She continued, “I figured hey, I’m a millennial, I’m pretty savvy with Facebook. I will do a quick search. And just this morning, you know, at 6:00, as I’m sitting down to do this interview with you guys, I pull up Viaje a Estados Unidos. And, lo and behold, a page with directions, with routes, prices — six grand to come to the United States, $9,300 to get to San Antonio. It takes a simple search of ‘get to the frontera,’ and that is all it takes to find out exactly who to pay, how to get here, and how you’re going to get smuggled across. And they even talk about in these ads how you can take a six-year-old or under, or if you are a single adult, what they dual to help get you across. It’s absolutely nuts.”

According to Cammack, Facebook profited from ads for pages promoting how to cross the border while at the same time silencing conservative pages.

“Instead of targeting conservatives, maybe we should focus on the cartels instead, right?” she posed to Facebook.

Mexican Cartel Boss Hosts City-Wide Party for Children

The leader of one of Mexico’s most violent cartels hosted a large celebration for all the children in a western city. The party included food, gifts, entertainment, and a wrestling match paid for by Cartel Jalisco Nueva Generacion (CJNG).

Breitbart Texas obtained exclusive videos and photographs from the celebrations in Tamazula, Jalisco, which includes the town of San Vicente and others. The celebrations took place on April 30, a day known in Mexico as Día Del Niño or Child’s Day. According to information obtained by Breitbart Texas, members of CJNG under orders of their leader Nemesio “El Mencho” Oseguera sent hundreds of presents and paid for large celebrations.

In one of the videos, a man dressed as a clown relays a message from Oseguera, referring to him as “Mr. Mencho” or the “Lord of the Roosters.” In the message, Mencho sends his regards and hopes to spread joy.

In a second video, a group of women thank El Mencho as they cook a large container of a traditional seasoned pork and corn stew known as pozole. The women express their thanks to the drug lord and wish him well.

The large-scale celebration took place without any interference from Mexican authorities. The CJNG is responsible for terrorist-style attacks including improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and shooting attacks. The CJNG is the leading organization behind armed conflicts in western and central Mexico as they seek to expand territories.

The celebrations are the continuation of outreach efforts by cartels to curry favor in rural communities. Other cartels such as the Gulf Cartel and the Cartel Del Noreste faction of Los Zetas also held celebrations during Christmas without any interference from law enforcement.

SC school resource officer arrested, charged as part of child sex trafficking case

A federal investigation into an Upstate South Carolina child sex trafficking ring has broadened to include more suspects, including an elementary school resource officer in the small town of Westminster.

Initially, five people were arrested and charged last August in connection with child sex trafficking. Since then, three of those suspects have pleaded guilty and agreed to cooperate with investigators, including Shannon Garland, the wife of suspect Gary Garland, a 50-year-old registered sex offender who is believed to be the ringleader.

Gary Garland is charged with multiple counts of sexual exploitation of children and conspiracy to commit human trafficking and remains in Spartanburg County Detention Center.

Further investigation led to the recent arrests of three more people, including John Towery, a former Oconee County sheriff’s deputy who worked as a school resource officer at Fair-Oak Elementary School in Westminster.

Towery was fired from the sheriff’s department in March, just weeks before he was arrested and charged with sexual exploitation of children and conspiracy to commit human trafficking.

In total, eight people have been arrested and charged with involvement in a child sex trafficking ring: Michael Skelton, Johnnie Wells, Duwone Allen, Glen Whitcomb, Kianna Dailey, along with Towery and the Garlands.

Towery pleaded not guilty at his arraignment Monday in federal court in Greenville. He was granted a $25,000 bond and required to wear GPS monitoring and confined to his home.

Towery had worked at the Oconee County Sheriff’s Office since 2012, after previously serving in the Edisto Beach Police Department.

All suspects but the Garlands have been released on bonds of $25,000 with the same requirements as Towery.

The case stems from the arrests last year of the Garlands, who were initially charged with criminal sexual conduct of a 14-year-old and a 15-year-old, according to warrants.

REVEALED: Biden's chief of staff and 60 White House employees have ties to progressive dark money groups

At least 60 people within Joe Biden's White House have ties to a liberal Washington DC think tank which does not disclose its funding, according to reports - leading to questions about the power of progressive 'dark money'.

The Center for American Progress was founded in 2003 by John Podesta, Bill Clinton's chief of staff and a counselor to Barack Obama.

It is one of a number of lobbying groups and policy organizations which do not disclose how they are funded, leading to concern about who is behind their significant power and influence.

Some of the best-known 'dark money' groups are the NRA, Planned Parenthood, the NAACP, the Heritage Foundation and the American Bankers' Association.

Biden's chief of staff, Ronald Klain, was on the board of the Center for American Progress Action Fund, the advocacy arm of the Center for American Progress, from 2011-13.

Democrats Win Request to End Signature Matching in Arizona Election Audit

Breaking Wednesday evening, Democrats successfully got signature matching to cease in the Maricopa, Arizona election audit. Democrats had few successes in a lawsuit aimed at stopping the audit of 2020 presidential election ballots in Maricopa County, but they reached a settlement. Along with the end of signature matching and validating, some members of the media and observers from Democrat Secretary of State Katie Hobbs’ office will be allowed to enter the audit facility to observe.

National File reports:

With only 9 days left to go before the audit is set to be completed, signature verification will cease immediately. According to the settlement, Cyber Ninjas “and their agents will not compare signatures on early ballot envelopes with signatures from the voter registration file.

The Senate Defendants warrant and represent that they are not currently comparing signatures on early ballot envelopes with signatures from the voter registration file, and will notify Plaintiffs within 48hours of any decision to undertake such signature comparison and afford Plaintiffs 48 hours to respond to resolve any concerns.”

Additionally, “If the parties cannot resolve the issue in a mutually agreeable manner, Plaintiffs may seek emergency injunctive and/or declaratory relief in court to seek compliance with the law.”

The settlement does not stop the release of disclosing signature validation findings thus far, though it is unclear how many signatures have already been compared and validated. National File reports that although they were unable to obtain a statement from the Republican Party or Arizona Senators responsible for the audit, a recently released video by Arizona GOP Chair Kelli Ward gives insight.

In the video, Ward addresses security concerns posed by Democrats, saying “there are not only 9 cameras in the arena, as you see on the website, and as the Democrats like to claim. There are actually dozens, dozens of private security cameras focused on the tables, on the counters, on the boxes of ballots, and on the machine evaluation areas. There’s no room or tolerance for error.”

Windows Defender bug fills Windows 10 boot drive with thousands of files

A Windows Defender bug creates thousands of small files that waste gigabytes of storage space on Windows 10 hard drives.

The bug started with Windows Defender antivirus engine 1.1.18100.5 and will cause the C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows Defender\Scans\History\Store folder to be filled up with thousands of files with names that appear to be MD5 hashes.

WARNING: New World Health Organization Group to Plan Health and the Economy of the Entire World

The World Health Organization is convening eleven "leading" figures in economics, health and development from around the world as the first members of the WHO Council on the Economics of Health For All.

This is an extremely dangerous development.

Remember the WHO played a lead role in advising globally on the lockdowns that occurred as a result of a virus, COVID-19, that is not a serious threat to over 99% of the population.

Now they appear to want to expand their authoritarian reach with a group of "experts" that are extremely radical leftists.

The chairwoman of the all-female group is Professor Mariana Mazzucato who has stated the world may be forced into "climate lockdowns."

Among those joining her on the committee are:

Economist Stephanie Kelton, who is the number one promoter of massive government spending. She argues that deficits don't matter and has written a book on her view, The Deficit Myth. (I discussed the errors in her thinking in, Problems With Modern Monetary Theory: A Comment on Stephanie Kelton’s "The Deficit Myth").

Senait Fisseha is a member of the Lancet–SIGHT Commission on Peaceful Societies Through Health and Gender Equality.

Member Vanessa Huang, a graduate of Brown University who also studied at the Queer Women of Color Media Arts Project, contributed to the essay collection Captive Genders: Trans Embodiment and the Prison Industrial Complex.

Kate Raworth is known for her work on 'doughnut economics', which she explains is an economic model that balances between essential human needs and "planetary boundaries."

I don't believe I have ever seen such a radical group in such a position to influence global power in a hands-on way. Don't for a moment be fooled by the name of the group which indicates that it is about "the Economics of Health For All."

This group will interpret everything in the economy as needing to be controlled for the "health of all."

If the power freaks at the World Economic Forum wanted a key front group to launch major parts of the "Great Reset," they couldn't do much better than these radicals with the heavily Bill Gates-funded WHO as their global vehicle of influence.

Their first meeting was Thursday.

Almost Half of ‘Female’ Transgender Inmates Are Sex Offenders: Report

Government plans to let people “self-identify” as the opposite sex will put female prisoners at risk, campaigners have warned, after it was revealed that a huge proportion of transgender inmates are sex offenders.

A report by feminist charity Fair Play for Women found “at least 41 per cent” of transgender inmates housed in jails across England and Wales are sex offenders — compared to 17 per cent of the population as a whole — and that a further handful are held in maximum-security category A prisons.

According to Ministry of Justice figures, there are 70 transgender inmates in English and Welsh jails, but officials refused to answer freedom of information requests on the number of sex offenders amongst them, alleging that there is no “business or legal case” for recording the data.

“Fair Play for Women strongly disagrees,” said the group in a new report, which argues the information is necessary to assess risks to female prisoners posed by government plans to allow men to “change sex” without even having to see a doctor.

https://twitter.com/fairplaywomen/status/932780238425264128

Looking at publicly available inspection reports from 118 jails, Fair Play for Women found there were 113 males who identify as the opposite sex, 46 of whom are housed in eight men’s prisons in England and Wales reserved specifically for sex offenders.

So far, 13 transgender inmates have been transferred to women’s jails, including double rapist Jessica Winfield, who was convicted under the prisoner’s former name, Martin Ponting.

As Breitbart London previously reported in September, Winfield — who is in the process of having a taxpayer-funded £10,000 sex change while in jail — reportedly had to be segregated after making sexual advances on female inmates.

Another of the transgender prisoners was moved to Britain’s only category A jail for women, while a further nine are being housed in men’s maximum security prisons — which house criminals whose escape would pose major dangers to the public.

One of the report’s author’s, Dr. Nicola Williams, warned there could be serious repercussions for female prisoners as a result of the government’s wholehearted embrace of policies demanded by LGBT activists.

Florida's new voting law immediately hit with lawsuits

Voting rights groups on Thursday filed a pair of lawsuits targeting a restrictive GOP-crafted voting bill, just moments after it was signed into law by Florida’s Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis.

The complaints, both filed in federal court in Tallahassee, claim the law, SB 90, illegally restricts access to the ballot box, with one of the suits alleging the measure will result in illegal discrimination against voters of color.

“SB 90 is a bill that purports to solve problems that do not exist," reads one of the suits. "[It] caters to a dangerous lie about the 2020 election that threatens our most basic democratic values, and, in the end, makes it harder to vote without adequate justification for doing so.”

The legal challenges come after Florida Republicans passed the measure on near party-line votes over objections from civil rights groups and every one of the state’s 67 county-level election supervisors.

Public debate over the Florida law has been similar to the row over a recently passed Georgia law. GOP proponents argue the new restrictions are needed to ensure election integrity and bolster voter confidence, while critics deride the measures as a cynical ploy to suppress likely Democratic voters, including racial minorities, using former President Trump’s repeated lies about the 2020 election being subject to widespread fraud as a pretext.

Among the limits imposed by the Florida measure are new restrictions on the use of absentee ballot drop boxes, additional requirements on voters seeking alternatives to in-person voting and a ban on members of the public distributing food or water to those waiting in line to vote.

One of the lawsuits is backed by Democratic attorney Marc Elias, who filed the complaint on behalf of the League of Women Voters of Florida, the Black Voters Matter Fund and the Florida Alliance for Retired Americans.

A second challenge, brought Thursday by the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund (LDF), Disability Rights Florida and Common Cause, alleges the law violates constitutional protections and the 1965 Voting Rights Act.

Zachery Morris, a lawyer with LDF, said the new law represents a “backlash to Black voters’ historic turnout during the 2020 election season.”

“The law’s suppressive and discriminatory provisions make it clear that the Florida Legislature’s goal is to erect additional hurdles to inhibit Florida voters, especially disabled voters, Black voters, and Latino voters, from accessing the ballot box,” Morris said in a statement.

After Only a Few Days in Jail, HUNTER BIDEN’S PIMP Was Suddenly and Mysteriously Released to a Treatment Center Rather Than Serving Years in Prison

The woman who Hunter dealt with when ordering prostitutes in Connecticut, Dianna Pagano (Hunter’s Pimp), was suddenly released from jail last Wednesday in Connecticut. She was ordered to go to a treatment center rather than face years in prison.

The woman who served as Hunter’s pimp in Connecticut has suddenly been released from jail and placed in a treatment center. Dianna Pagano was sitting in a jail in Connecticut waiting for her sentencing on various charges when a hearing was conducted on Wednesday, and Pagano was suddenly ordered to go to a treatment center.

Pagano was arrested for intending to sell drugs:

The question remains, how did Pagano, with all her prior records and arrests, obtain a ‘get out of jail free’ card and go to a treatment center instead of prison? Did this have anything to do with her close relationship with Hunter Biden?

Federal Gov’t Telling Facebook to Silence Those With Vaccine Safety Concerns Says Lawsuit

It is no longer a random act — Facebook censorship has become so blatant and massive that they have indefinitely silenced the former president of the United States. Many pro-censorship advocates cheer this on because they dislike the voices silenced by Facebook. They attempt to justify the censorship with the claims that Facebook is a private company and can do what they want, a lawsuit filed against the social media giant says that is not the case.

A lawsuit filed by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. — the chairman of the non-profit group Children’s Health Defense (CHD) — claims Facebook conspires with the federal government to squelch speech which advocates for vaccine safety.

According to the lawsuit, overseen by Senior U.S. District Judge Susan Illston, Facebook started slapping warning labels on content posted on CHD’s Facebook page, including in September of 2020 when the social media giant posted a message directing users to seek “reliable, up-to-date information” about vaccines from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Facebook also started labeling some of CHD’s content as “false information” based on research by third-party fact checkers, including a link to an article claiming vaccinated children “are more likely to have adverse health outcomes” in May 2020.

Suing Facebook over censorship is an impossible task (trust us, we tried) as the company claims the right to censor or moderate any content they see fit as they own the platform. However, in their new lawsuit, CHD claims the federal government coerced and encouraged Facebook to stifle its speech, transforming a private company’s actions into a state-sponsored directives.

On Wednesday, Facebook filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit; and during that hearing, Judge Illston asked if the government can ever take steps to counter misinformation without running afoul of the First Amendment.

“Let’s say there was something on the internet that says, ‘If you take a Covid vaccine, you’re going to grow a third head.’ That’s clearly not true. Is it OK to not let that be published?” Illston asked.

“I don’t think it’s OK if the government is calling the shot,” CHD attorney Roger Teich replied.

“You think it’s inappropriate for the government to say generally, ‘We’d really like it if all these private social media outlets didn’t publish lies about the Covid vaccine?’ That’s not alright to say that?” asked Illson.

Teich answered that it was the CDC’s “underhandedness” in using Facebook to restrict speech that violates the Constitution.

To show evidence of government / Facebook collusion, Teich cited multiple statements by Zuckerberg, the CDC and “its proxy,” the World Health Organization, declaring that they were “in discussion” and “working together” to reduce the spread of vaccine misinformation.

Ukraine Confirms Boost in U.S. Military Aid, Invitation to Biden, Harris During Blinken Visit

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken held a press conference after a meeting with the two, Ukraine’s prime minister and foreign minister and Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs Victoria Nuland earlier in the day.

While acknowledging that it was too early to discuss the matter in detail, Zelensky said that “speaking of the military support and financial support and technical assistance coming from the U.S. for Ukraine, yes, it is happening.”

“It is unfolding,” he added, and expressed gratitude to both houses of the U.S. Congress and to Democrats and Republics alike for boosting military aid to his nation. Earlier this year the U.S. provided $125 million in defense assistance to Kiev, and currently the U.S. Senate is working on a bill that provides an additional $300 million.

Zelensky also confirmed that he has extended invitations to President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris to visit Ukraine this year on the 30th anniversary of its independence. Blinken thanked him for the invitation and said he’d relay it to Biden when he returns to Washington. The president, he was sure, would welcome the chance to return to a nation “where he spent much time in the past.”

The Ukrainian head of state also said he and the U.S. secretary of state had discussed security matters in the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov, and “and we can see some joint action there.” In both cases he’s alluding to rivalry with Russia; in the case of the Sea of Azov and the Kerch Strait that connects it to the Black Sea, the control of the strait has been a bone of contention between Kiev and Moscow for years, with an open clash between the two nations occurring there in 2018.

Blinken offered unambiguous confirmation of the Ukrainian position and an equally unqualified pledge of support in these blunt words:

‘Major attack’ in Israel foiled as 3 gunmen shot in firefight near military base

Security official says attackers opened fire after being stopped by border police officers conducting routine inspections on a bus with illegal Palestinian workers

Three Palestinians who opened fire at Border Police soldiers near a military base in the northern West Bank on Friday had initially planned to commit a “major attack” against civilians in central Israel, army and police officials said on Friday. Two of the gunmen were killed and the third was critically injured in a firefight with the Israeli troops.

The three attackers, all in their early 20s, were traveling on a bus with illegal Palestinian laborers en route to central Israel, and intended to commit the shooting there, a security official said.

Forces had halted the bus near the border crossing between Israel and the West Bank as part of routine security efforts to stop illegal laborers from entering Israel. Shortly after, the three Palestinians got off the bus and opened fire at the soldiers.

New York AG reveals CNN, MSNBC parent companies funded millions of fake net neutrality comments

'Illegal schemes are unacceptable,' says AG Letitia James

The Office of New York Attorney General Letitia James has revealed in a new report that nearly 18 million of the more than 22 million comments the FCC received during its 2017 rulemaking were fake, intended to support the repeal of net neutrality, the idea that internet service providers (ISPs) should provide all online content equally and prevent them from favoring their own services or customers over their competitors.

A $4.2 million effort funded by Broadband for America, which includes major internet providers like AT&T, Comcast and Charter, reportedly accounted for more than 8.5 million of the fake FCC comments. Millions more were submitted by a teenage college student in California.

"The Office of the New York Attorney General (OAG) found that fake comments accounted for nearly 18 million of the more than 22 million comments the FCC received during its 2017 rulemaking," the AG's report reads. "This type of fraud has significant consequences for our democracy. Federal and state agencies rely on public comments to set standards that govern many aspects of our lives, from public health to consumer protection to the environment, and, in this case, the rules that govern how we share and consume content over the internet. Public comments can also influence legislators and the laws they enact."

"The OAG found that millions of fake comments were submitted through a secret campaign, funded by the country’s largest broadband companies, to manufacture support for the repeal of existing net neutrality rules using lead generators," the report continued. "And millions more were submitted by a 19- year old college student using made-up identities. The OAG also found that the FCC’s rulemaking proceeding was not unique. Some of the same parties and tactics have infected other rulemakings and processes for public engagement."

Withheld routers the latest of many roadblocks to Arizona Senate's audit of 2020 election

County attorney claims routers present "security risk," though judge last month ordered surrender of confidential materials.

Officials in Maricopa County, Ariz., threw up another roadblock before the state Senate's 2020 election audit this week, refusing to surrender a portion of subpoenaed materials due to the alleged security risks they pose.

That refusal came in the form of a letter on Monday from the Maricopa County Attorney's Office that cited "a significant security risk to law enforcement data utilized by the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office as well as numerous federal agencies."

In its subpoena, the Arizona State Senate had asked for, in part, "access or control of all routers, tabulators or combinations thereof, used in connection with the administration of the 2020 election, and the public IP of the router."

The Monday letter from the MCAO said the county was refusing to hand over those routers or even digital copies of them, citing an alleged "security risk" associated with the hardware.

County spokesman Fields Moseley told Just the News on Thursday that "the routers the Senate subpoena commanded the County produce support [more than 50] departments, not just elections operations," including "critical law enforcement data that, by law, cannot be disclosed, as well as Maricopa County residents' protected health information and full social security numbers."

"By providing the routers, or even virtual images of routers, sensitive data and the lives of law enforcement personnel could be endangered," he added.

That explanation would appear to conflict with the February ruling of Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Timothy Thomason in which the judge ordered Maricopa to comply with the state Senate's subpoena. Addressing the county's numerous objections to the subpoena, Thomason argued that Maricopa's claims of confidentiality concerns do not preempt the requirements of the subpoena.

"The Senators had the power to issue the Subpoenas and have the statutory power to enforce those Subpoenas in the manner set forth in the statutes," Thomason wrote. "The Subpoenas are, in essence, the equivalent of a Court order, requiring production of certain information. The County cannot avoid a subpoena based on statutes that require that the material being subpoenaed be kept confidential."

Thomason's ruling constituted "a minute entry that the subpoenas are legitimate and enforceable by the Senate," Moseley said. "Maricopa County has worked hard to comply with the demands of the subpoena and tried to solve this security risk in a number of ways. We continue to study this issue."

President Trump Outlines Evidence of Election Manipulation in Michigan – Lawsuit Includes Evidence of Electronic Ballot Manipulation in Antrim County

In the state of Michigan, specifically Antrim County, there is an ongoing civil lawsuit into the electronic tabulation systems used in the 2020 election [Details Here]. The plaintiff in the case is William Bailey and his attorneys include the DePerno Law Office: “We have the proof that voting machines used in the 2020 elections can be compromised and votes easily transferred from one candidate to another. We can flip votes at the tabulator/precinct level. We can flip votes at the county level. The American people are losing their voice for the future of our democracy. We must fight together for free and fair elections.”

Earlier today President Trump drew attention to this ongoing legal battle:

President Donald Trump – “At 6:31 in the morning on November 4th, a dump of 149,772 votes came in to the State of Michigan. Biden received 96% of those votes and the State miraculously went to him. Has the Michigan State Senate started their review of the Fraudulent Presidential Election of 2020 yet, or are they about to start? If not, they should be run out of office. Likewise, at 3:42 in the morning, a dump of 143,379 votes came in to the state of Wisconsin, also miraculously, given to Biden. Where did these “votes” come from? Both were State Election changing events, and that is on top of the other corruption without even including the fact that neither state got Legislative approval, which is required under the United States Constitution. (link)

The Bailey case in Michigan is the first time admissible evidence of how electronic voting systems can be manipulated is being presented before a court.

Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham Moved ‘Toxic Gases’ To Abandoned Town In Eastern Idlib – Report

Al-Qaeda-affiliated Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) has moved toxic gases from Idlib city to an abandoned town in the eastern Idlib countryside, Sputnik reported on May 7.

Sources familiar with the matter told Sputnik that the toxic gases will be kept in a depot in the town of Kafarya, whose residents were displaced in 2018, for a while. Later, the toxics will be moved to a new depot on the Syrian border with Turkey.

According to the sources, the toxics, which are stored in cylinders, were moved in a van equipped with a refrigerator on the morning of May 7.

The cylinders were shipped from a headquarters of HTS in Idlib city to a position of the group in the western outskirts of the city, where they were briefly stored before being moved to Kafarya in eastern Idlib.

“HTS uses the abandoned town as a station only, as the toxic shipment will soon be transported to a camp on the Syrian-Turkish border,” one of the sources, a member of the White Helmets organization, told Sputnik.

The source revealed that the toxic gases arrived at HTS headquarters in Idlib city exactly five days ago. Three militants, two Chechens and one French, were guarding the shipment.

Sputnik’s report is not surprising. In the last three years, sources in Greater Idlib revealed details about HTS’ chemical program to outlets in Russia, Syria and Lebanon.

The Ministry of Defense of Russia warned on many occasions in the past that HTS and its allies are planning to use toxics to stage false-flag attack with chemical weapons. The aim will be to provoke a military response by the US and its Western allies against the Syrian military.

What Is Mucormycosis? Deadly 'Black Fungus' Infection Triggered By COVID Spikes In India

Six patients with Mucormycosis were admitted to a Delhi hospital over the last two days

A city in Gujarat too is witnessing a surge in cases

The infection has a high mortality rate if not treated early

It can also cause loss of eyesight and lead to the removal of nose and jaw bones

Doctors in at least two states in India, which is facing a devastating coronavirus second wave, are reporting a spike in a deadly fungal infection among coronavirus patients.

Hospitals in the Indian capital Delhi and the western state of Gujarat have reported a surge in Mucormycosis, also known as Black Fungus, in patients with COVID-19 or those who had recently recovered from it, the Hindustan Times reported.

Six patients admitted to Delhi's Sir Ganga Ram hospital over the last two days have developed the infection, and Gujarat has reported a sudden spike in cases, with no numbers available immediately.

Mucormycosis is a type of funcal infection with a very high mortality rate, reportedly killing nearly half of those infected if not treated early. Those infected with the fungus are also at risk of losing their eye sight or may have to get their facial bones removed if the infection spreads.

Here is what the CDC says of the fungus: "Mucormycosis (previously called zygomycosis) is a serious but rare fungal infection caused by a group of molds called mucormycetes. These molds live throughout the environment. Mucormycosis mainly affects people who have health problems or take medicines that lower the body’s ability to fight germs and sickness. It most commonly affects the sinuses or the lungs after inhaling fungal spores from the air. It can also occur on the skin after a cut, burn, or other type of skin injury."

Dr Aparna Mahajan, an ENT consultant at the Fortis Hospital, told The Quint: "The fungus is freely present around us, but it needs a very specific kind of environment in someone's body for it to get an opportunity to cause an infection." She said the infection behaves somewhat like cancer but is deadlier. "Cancer would take at least a few months to have a lethal effect. This can lead to fatality within days or even hours."

India's recorded a grim global record of more than 414,000 infections and 3,915 deaths Thursday. The country's health system continues to remain stressed from a shortage of medical oxygen, ICU beds and other medical equipment amid a deluge of patients suffering from respiratory difficulties. The surge is being driven by a new variant of the virus, known as the B.1.617, with mutations that make is more infectious than most other strains.

Swiss Diplomat Who Represented Biden Admin Interests in Iran Is Found Dead After Falling from 17th Floor Balcony in Tehran

Swiss diplomat Sylvie Brunner was found dead this week after falling from her 17th-floor apartment balcony in Tehran. She was the first secretary of the Swiss delegation and worked in the US Interests Section.

Neighbors heard a loud explosion late at night before her death.

Her body was found in the garden the next morning.

According to reports, Sylvie Brunner was called to Iran to testify about her knowledge of the details of the American accounts who pocketed billions of dollars due to the bribes to lift sanctions against Iran.

We cannot verify that report at this time.

Iran International reported:

With Iranian authorities yet to announce their conclusions on the death of Sylvie Brunner, a 51-year-old Swiss diplomat in Tehran, Hamshahri newspaper has offered an account of her death that may feed speculation. Brunner, first secretary of the Swiss embassy and deputy of the United States interest section, fell from her residence in a high-rise building Tuesday.

Switzerland has for decades represented US and Iranian interests in the two countries, which have had no diplomatic relations since 1980 when the revolutionary government in Iran failed to act to free American diplomats taken hostage by militant students.

Iran International Newsroom Hamshahri offered a relatively full, if inconclusive, account of Brunner’s death. In very broad terms, it concurs with a brief report from Mizan, news agency of Iran’s judiciary, which reported Tuesday evening that the diplomat “fell from the 17th floor where she lived and her body was found in the gardens outside the building under her balcony.”

Brunner’s body, Mizan said, had been taken to the coroner’s office following an investigation at the scene in the presence of a judge and crime-scene experts.

More than 38,000 Tramadol Pills Intercepted by CBP in Chicago

CHICAGO— U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers at Chicago O’Hare’s International Mail Branch recently seized two packages containing pill bottles full of Tramadol tablets, a schedule IV substance under the Controlled Substance Act.Tramadol

The shipments were arriving from the Mexico and were destined for a single residence in Dallas, Texas. The customs declaration affixed to the parcel listed the contents as Plastics, Decorations, and Toys. The officers inspected the shipments to determine the admissibility of the parcels and its contents, and found 38,350 Tramadol pills with a street value of $191,750.

“Most people hear about CBP seizing narcotics shipments,” said Shane Campbell, Area Port Director-Chicago. “However shipments of illegal prescription pills are very dangerous too. These pills were not regulated by the FDA and can contain harmful chemicals that could be poisonous.”

This medication is used to help relieve moderate to moderately severe pain. Tramadol is similar to opioid analgesics. It works in the brain to change how your body feels and responds to pain. Tramadol is most commonly abused by narcotic addicts, chronic pain patients, and health professionals. For the stated reasons of its abuse, Tramadol is a Schedule IV substance under the Controlled Substances Act.

CBP provides basic import information about admissibility requirements and the clearance process for e-commerce goods and encourages buyers to confirm that their purchases and the importation of those purchases comply with any state and federal import regulations.

CBP conducts operations at ports of entry throughout the United States, and regularly screens arriving international passengers and cargo for narcotics, weapons, and other restricted or prohibited products. CBP strives to serve as the premier law enforcement agency enhancing the Nation’s safety, security, and prosperity through collaboration, innovation, and integration.

'Your doggy chain necklace is waiting for you.' Flirty messages from Hunter Biden's Chinese-American secretary, 29, who worked for him when he partnered with the 'spy chief of China' are revealed

DailyMail.com can reveal messages between Hunter Biden and young Chinese-American woman who worked in his business venture with Patrick Ho

In an audio recording, Hunter described Ho to a friend as the 'spy chief of China'

The young secretary, JiaQi Bao, worked for Hunter during his partnership with Chinese oil giant CEFC in a multi-million-dollar deal

Bao, then age 29, scheduled flights, hotels and doctor's appointments for him

She sent him opposition research to help Joe Biden's 2020 election bid and wrote flirty and personal messages and ended up with his military dog tags

She also encouraged him to draw from the company's accounts before they was shut down

Hunter and Joe Biden's brother Jim partnered with CEFC in 2017, in a deal that was meant to generate billions of dollars

But the joint venture collapsed the following year when CEFC's secretary general Ho was arrested and convicted of bribery in a US federal prosecution

It's unclear whether Bao was aware of CEFC bosses alleged links with intelligence services at the time and she has not responded to requests for comment

Hunter Biden's emails reveal his close relationship with the Chinese-American secretary who worked for him when he went into business with the man he called the 'spy chief of China.'

The mysterious young assistant wrote the president's son flirty messages, sent him opposition research for Joe's White House run and encouraged him to draw funds from the company's accounts when the joint venture collapsed and even ended up with Hunter's military dog tags.

In 2017 Hunter went into business with Patrick Ho, secretary general of Chinese oil giant CEFC.

Hunter described Ho in a call recording on his abandoned laptop as the 'spy chief of China', and the Chinese businessman was later surveilled by US law enforcement as a foreign intelligence threat before he was convicted of bribery in 2018.

After launching his multi-million-dollar joint venture with CEFC, Hunter was assigned a 29-year-old Chinese-American assistant, JiaQi Bao, who quickly struck up a close and intriguing relationship with her Biden boss.

At first, emails show the New York-based Bao diligently scheduled flights, hotels and even doctor's appointments for the president's son.

But mysteriously, the young assistant also sent him opposition research to help Joe Biden's 2020 election bid, urged him to take cash from the joint venture's accounts as the business collapsed and wrote flirty and personal messages and even ended up with Hunter's military dog tags in her New York apartment – the same tags he can be seen wearing in home-made porn videos he recorded on his laptop.

While Hunter had photos of Bao on his laptop, seen here, DailyMail.com did not find any explicit photos or videos of the assistant.
