MI Judge Makes Stunning Decision on Antrim Co. Voter Fraud Case

 

Michigan’s 13th District Judge Kevin A. Elsenheimer made a big decision today about whether the 2020 election voter fraud case can move forward in the courts.

 

100 Percent Fed Up reports – Matt DePerno, the attorney for William Bailey, the plaintiff in the Antrim County election fraud case, was dealt a big blow today when Judge Elsenheimer squashed the lawsuit. DePerno has worked tirelessly to gather evidence of voter fraud. DePerno has uncovered multiple ways in which the election results could have been manipulated or compromised in the November 2020 election.

Grammy-winning Christian musician announces he's an 'exvangelical' who is 'progressing,' 'deconstructing'

 

DC Talk's Kevin Max has admitted that he is an "exvangelical," according to the Christian Post, and is working toward "progressing" and "deconstructing."

 

On Saturday, Max, a Grammy-winning vocalist, "came out" on Twitter, writing, "Hello, my name is Kevin Max & I'm an #exvangelical."

 

Hello, my name is Kevin Max & I’m an #exvangelical

— kevin max (@kevin max)1621057073.0

 

In responses to his initial tweet, Max said that he still believes in "the Universal Christ."

 

"For all those people using my post as plug & play for your own hot take or personal discourse, I offer the lyrics to an upcoming song off of my new band @AstronautsSad album 'Adult Fears' titled 'It's okay,'" he wrote. "I'm sorry for being obtuse or difficult but it's a process … love."

 

The lyrics read:

 

It's ok to be estranged

From everything that you were taught

And it's ok

To unpack all the hopeless baggage that you bought

I know the sun it never shines

In the same place twice

And I know that life is better

With a trusted vice

But you will change

When you cave

To the universal Christ

And it's ok for you to lose

The shame from all the churches abuse

And it's ok

For them to see

You don't believe in man's inerrancy

I know the sun it never shines

in the place you hide

I know you think its better

Shrouded in secrets and lies

But you'll change

When you embrace

The glowing universal Christ

The outlet reported that some of those people leaving the Christian church have begun referring to themselves as the "nones" and are promoting a movement called "deconstruction" — translated as "deconstructing one's faith and leaving the church."

 

"Many who are 'deconstructing' have spoken out about their experiences getting hurt by people inside the Church," the outlet reported. "Others have cited their rejection of biblical teaching on sexuality as the reason they are disassociating."

 

In a later tweet, the self-described "leftist" added that he is "anti-war, pro-peace, anti-hate, pro-live, pro-LGBTQIA, pro-BLM, pro-open mindedness, anti-narrow mindedness, pro-utopia, anti-white nationalist agenda, pro-equality, pro-vax, pro-music, anti-1%rs, pro-poor, pro-misfit-pro-Jesus, etc[.]"

 

His remarks were in response to a user who asked, "Are you pro-Israel? Are you pro-Palestine? I'm pro-not-killing-people."

Europol helps Spanish authorities break up a €26.5 million VAT fraud scheme

 

An international law enforcement operation involving 5 countries with the support of Europol and Eurojust has resulted in the arrest of 22 suspects belonging to an organised crime group which has caused over €26.5 million in tax loss to the Spanish state budget.

 

On 28 April, some 24 places belonging to the crime gang were searched in a series of coordinated raids. The searches were carried out in Spain (18), the Netherlands (5) and Belgium (1).The investigators seized 16 high-end vehicles and 13 properties worth an estimated €1.3 million as well as froze a dozen of bank accounts held by these criminals in 33 different financial entities. Europol deployed its experts to Spain and the Netherlands to support the national authorities during the action day.

 

The syndicate used a sophisticated infrastructure to facilitate such tax evasion spread over various countries in the past year and a half. The criminals would use so-called front companies in Spain, Slovakia, Romania, Belgium and the Netherlands to pretend a trade in goods took place. In reality, no goods were delivered to enterprises in other countries, but they remained in the same Member State.

 

On these kind of transactions within the same country, VAT has to be paid. By pretending a trade across the EU, the VAT payment was avoided and henceforth the Spanish tax authorities defrauded upon. For these purposes, a string of shell companies had been set up and trading documents had been forged.

 

At request of the Spanish authorities, Eurojust organised a coordination meeting and set up a coordination centre within a few days. The Agency coordinated the transmission of requests for European Investigation Orders (EIOs) and freezing certificates for bank accounts. Europol brought together the investigators in all 5 countries to discuss the procedural requirements and agree on a clear way forward. Its experts from Europol’s European Financial and Economic Crime Centre (EFECC) thereafter supporter the intense exchange of information leading to the action day.

The following countries took part in this operation:

 

Spain: Civil Guard (Guardia Civil), National Police (Policía Nacional), Tax Agency (Agencia Tributaria)

The Netherlands: Fiscal Information and Investigation Service (FIOD)

Belgium: Federal Prosecution Office

Slovakia: PPO Bratislava

Romania

CCP cover-up: Wuhan lab scrubs all evidence of Fauci treason from its servers

 

Now that the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) house of cards is crumbling, communist China is frantically trying to scrub all evidence linking Anthony Fauci to the illicit gain of function research that ultimately led to the plandemic.

 

New reports indicate that the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) was caught deleting all mentions of Fauci, the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and gain of function research from old web pages, beginning in early 2021.

 

As it started to become clear that there was no salvaging this farce any longer, and that Fauci was in some serious hot water concerning his treason against our country, his buddies over in communist China started working overtime to erase all evidence of his complicity from the internet.

 

Fauci, as you may know, has repeatedly lied under oath when question about his involvement with gain of function research. Just the other day, in fact, he lied numerous times to Sen. Rand Paul by claiming that the NIH never sent American taxpayer dollars to China to work on gain of function research.

 

We now know that Fauci is a liar and that he did funnel gobs of taxpayer cash to China, which allowed the communist country to unleash genetically modified (GMO) coronaviruses into the world, leading to lockdowns, mask mandates, and now “vaccines.”

 

One of the now-scrubbed webpages contained a research update called, “Will SARS Come Back?” that described gain of function research being funded by Fauci’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (NIAID). Another listed other U.S.-based partners, including the University of Alabama, EcoHealth Alliance and Harvard University, all of which also contributed to gain of function research in China.

 

Over time, many of these partners started disappearing from the site until the only one that remained was EcoHealth Alliance, which is run by longstanding Chinese Communist Party (CCP) asset and partner Peter Daszak, who appears to be the impending “fall guy” for the Wuhan lab debacle.

Fauci committed treason against the United States with his plandemic scheme

 

Perhaps the most significant omission from WIV’s American partner list is the NIH, which heavily funded gain of function research at Fauci’s command. This revelation puts in the spotlight Fauci’s recent lies to Sen. Paul, as Fauci desperately tried to squirm his way out of the situation.

 

It is too late, though, as the world now knows that Fauci was the ringleader behind this whole operation and must now be held accountable.

 

“Beyond establishing a working relationship between the NIH and the Wuhan Institue of Virology, now-deleted posts from the site also detail studies bearing the hallmarks of gain-of-function research conducted with the Wuhan-based lab,” The National Pulse reported.

 

“Fauci, however, asserted to Senator Paul that ‘the NIH has not ever and does not now fund gain-of-function research in the Wuhan Institute of Virology.'”

Fauci appears to be a Chinese asset, continues to fund bioweapons research for the communist Chinese military

 

Dr. Anthony Fauci not only approved coronavirus gain-of-function research grants to EcoHealth Alliance and the Wuhan Institute of Virology, but he also funds current bioweapon research programs for the Chinese military. Despite Fauci’s unwillingness to come forward with these indisputable facts in a recent Senate hearing, he now faces increased scientific, lawful and public scrutiny. Chinese scientists have infiltrated American institutions and advanced bioweapon research on coronaviruses, dengue viruses and zika viruses, using funds provided by Fauci and the NIAID.

Fauci’s bloody gain-of-function money trail extends to the Chinese military

 

In 2007, a Chinese scientist named Pei-Yong Shi became an Honorary Professor at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. He was trained by the People’s Republic of China with funding from Dr. Anthony Fauci and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (NIAID). Today, Pei-Yong Shi is a professor in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston. After infiltrating American universities, Pei-Yong Shi collaborated with scientists from the Chinese People’s Liberation Army, garnering patents alongside Cheng Feng Qin and the Beijing Institute of Microbiology and Epidemiology. Of special interest is a U.S. patent that was granted on August 20, 2015 for “Novel Attenuated Dengue Virus Strains for vaccine application.” In that U.S. patent application, Cheng Feng Qin listed Singapore as his work location, hiding his affiliation with the People’s Liberation Army. Despite Pei-Yong Shi’s ties to the Chinese military, Fauci approved another 2021 grant to Shi for $926,569.

 

A Chinese patent application number 201810076027.7 dated October 26, 2018 and a second Chinese patent, WO2019144874A1, dated January 23, 2019, lists the owner as Pei-Yong Shi and the Academy of Military Sciences of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army. In the three scientific articles that support the second Chinese patent, there is a list of funding sources. Fauci and the NIAID issued four grants, AI120942, AI127744, AI073755 and AI104972, to fund these bioweapon studies for the Chinese military.

Bloomingdale’s pulls out of Chrissy Teigen deal over bullying scandal

 

Well that plan went ka-Bloom.

 

Page Six has learned that Bloomingdale’s walked away from a deal with Chrissy Teigen at the 11th hour because of her explosive cyberbullying scandal.

 

Macy’s — which shares a parent company with the Upper East Side institution — appeared to drop Teigen’s “Cravings by Chrissy” cookware line this week after model Courtney Stodden (who uses gender-neutral pronouns) revealed that Teigen had encouraged them to kill themselves in private Twitter messages when they were just 16 years old.

 

Now we’re told that Bloomingdale’s was hours away from signing a contract with the Twitter personality and cookbook author, which would see her host a promotional event for the store, but pulled the plug on Monday because of the toxic press swirling around Teigen.

 

“They pretty much had it together … but had to cancel it,” said an insider of the department store.

 

Stodden, now 26, shot to fame in 2011 when they married then-51-year-old actor Doug Hutchison at the age of 16.

 

In a recent interview with the Daily Beast, Stodden said that Teigen publicly tweeted messages to them including “I hate you,” “my Friday fantasy: you. Dirt nap” and “go. To sleep. forever.” They also revealed that the Sports Illustrated cover model privately messaged them telling them to kill themself.

 

“Things like, ‘I can’t wait for you to die,’” Stodden told the Daily Beast.

 

Teigen, 35, apologized last Wednesday, writing on Twitter, “Not a lot of people are lucky enough to be held accountable for all their past bulls–t in front of the entire world. I’m mortified and sad at who I used to be.”

 

She added, “I was an insecure, attention seeking troll. I am ashamed and completely embarrassed at my behavior but that… is nothing compared to how I made Courtney feel.”

 

A source familiar with the situation says Macy’s took the goods off its site because people were venting their ire about the Stodden scandal in product reviews, but the source added that the company hasn’t made a decision about whether Teigen’s products will become available at Macy’s again in the future.

 

Teigen is married to musician John Legend.

 

Reps for Bloomingdale’s didn’t get back to us, and a rep for Teigen declined to comment.

Fauci Underling Serves On Board for Wuhan Lab Journal.

 

The Wuhan Institute of Virology’s scientific journal – which has discussed controversial “gain-of-function” research – counts scientists from Dr. Anthony Fauci’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) on its editorial board.

 

The Editor-in-Chief of the journal – Virologica Sinica – is Shi Zhengli, the Director of the Wuhan Institute of Virology’s Center for Emerging Infectious Diseases. Eight additional researchers from the Wuhan lab – believed by many to be the source of COVID-19 – serve on the editorial board.

 

Another member of the journal’s editorial board, however, has ties to Dr. Fauci’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID).

 

Jens Kuhn, the Director of Virology at the Integrated Research Facility which is “part of the NIAID’s Division of Clinical Research (DCR) within NIH” according to the agency, is listed as a member of the journal’s editorial board.

 

His professional bio notes he “specializes in highly virulent viral human and animal pathogens” as one of “two Principal Scientists” at the NIAID-funded venture:

“I am a Principal at Tunnell Government Services (TGS), tasked as one of two Principal Scientists and the Director of Virology at NIH/NIAID/DCR’s Biosafety Level 4 facility, the Integrated Research Facility at Fort Detrick (IRF-Frederick) in MD, USA. I specialize in highly virulent viral human and animal pathogens, biodefense, bioengagement in the BMENA region and NIS countries, and biological arms control.”

 

Beyond establishing additional ties between Fauci’s NIAID and the Wuhan Institute of Virology – including multiple conferences involving scientists from both entities – the journal has also discussed gain-of-function research. These unearthed connections follow Fauci insisting his agency never participated in gain of function research at the Chinese lab during an exchange with Senator Rand Paul.

 

A 2017 article from Virologica Sinica notes:

 

“To identify the DENV entry factors, Amara’s group carried out a gain-of-function complementary DNA(cDNA) screen for host proteins that allow the minimally susceptible cell line 293T to be infectable by DENV (Carnec et al., 2015)”

 

“Simultaneous gain-of-function and loss-offunction assays were performed by transfecting cells with or without related miRNA inhibitors. After 24 h, Act-D was added into the culture medium,” one study notes.

 

Another study references the practice, commenting “two main approaches can be undertaken in such screens: gain-of-function, in which a library of overexpressed proteins is used in order to induce or amplify restriction.”

Fauci Admits He Only Wears a Mask Because of Optics After Telling Rand Paul It’s Science

 

"I didn't want to look like I was giving mixed signals"

 

Dr Anthony Fauci has admitted that he continued to wear a mask after being vaccinated for optics reasons, after attacking Senator Rand Paul for claiming it was merely “theatre.”

 

Fauci appeared on ABC’s Good Morning America on Tuesday morning, where he discussed the CDC’s recent change of guidelines regarding wearing masks, in that the organisation recommended that anyone who had been vaccinated for coronavirus could stop wearing a mask, both indoors and outdoors, and without social distancing.

 

Responding to George Stephanopoulos, who asked Fauci what had changed in his life since the new recommendations, he said he was now “much more comfortable” with people seeing him indoors without a mask. “Before the CDC made the recommendation change, I didn’t want to look like I was giving mixed signals, but being a fully vaccinated person, the chances of me getting infected in an indoor setting is extremely low, and that’s the reason why in indoor settings now, I feel comfortable about not wearing a mask because I’m fully vaccinated,” Fauci said.

 

This means that Fauci, who is presented as a total expert on coronavirus, masks, vaccinations, and all other topics regarding this pandemic, has now completely contradicted himself. In March, Senator Rand Paul grilled Fauci at a hearing, where he cited a number of studies noting that after either being infected with coronavirus or being vaccinated, the chances of reinfection were incredibly low, and yet Fauci at that point still recommended everybody wear a mask. “If we’re not spreading the infection, isn’t it just theatre?” Paul asked. “You’ve had the vaccine and you’re wearing two masks, isn’t that theatre?”:

 

You’re making policy based on conjecture. You have the conjecture that we’re going to get variants, so you want people to wear a mask for another couple years. You’ve been vaccinated and you parade around in two masks for show. You can’t get it again. There’s virtually a zero percent chance you’re gonna get it… You’re defying everything we know about immunity by telling people to wear a mask who have been vaccinated. Instead you should be saying there is no science to say we’re going to have a problem.

Fauci went on the defensive, claiming that variants of coronavirus could come into the United States, suggesting that they could reinfect people who were vaccinated or had already been infected. “Let me just state for the record that masks are not theatre, masks are protective,” Fauci said at the time. He “totally disagreed” with Paul’s assessment that wearing a mask was just to “give comfort to others” when vaccinated, yet this is exactly what he implied he was doing in his interview on Tuesday.

 

National File reported last week that Senator Paul’s father, Dr Ron Paul has called for the firing of Fauci, telling listeners on his Liberty Report podcast that he is a “fraud,” and warned of a long term restriction of civil liberties following the pandemic.

Colonial Pipeline suffers ‘network outage’…

 

(Bloomberg) — Colonial Pipeline, the nation’s biggest fuel system that has been working to restart since being hacked two weeks ago, is experiencing network issues that leave customers unable to access their fuel shipments.

 

 

The system that allows customers to reserve space on the line, make changes to their batches or receive updates on fuel traveling through the system has been inaccessible as of Tuesday morning, according to shippers, asking not to be identified because the information isn’t public. The pipeline appears to still be operating despite the communication outage, the shippers said.

 

 

In a subsequent notice to shippers, Colonial said “it is currently experiencing network issues impacting customers’ ability to enter and update nominations,” and that it is working to restore service. Shippers on the pipeline use a third party communication system known as Transport 4 to access Colonial’s network daily to ensure timely receipts and shipments of various grades of fuel.

 

 

The Colonial system, a key fuel artery transports roughly 2.5 million barrels a day of refined products such as gasoline and diesel to the East Coast, had resumed service on May 12 after a ransomware attack shut down the entire system. Gas stations from Alabama to Washington D.C. ran out of fuel amid a rush of panic buying and are still in the process of recovery as trucks work overtime to deliver gasoline from the pipeline to retail outlets.

Fauci on Businesses Keeping Mask Mandates: ‘Issue Is that We Don’t Have Any Way of Knowing Who Is Vaccinated’

 

Dr. Anthony Fauci supports businesses choosing to leave mask mandates in place because the “issue,” he said, is that “we don’t have any way of knowing who is vaccinated.”

 

Fauci believes it is “perfectly reasonable and understandable” for businesses to keep mask mandates in place despite recent Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidance relieving vaccinated individuals from wearing masks in most settings.

 

“The problem and the issue is that we don’t have any way of knowing who is vaccinated and who’s not vaccinated,” Fauci said during an appearance on Good Morning America.

 

“I think that’s where the confusion arises because there are some establishments who are saying, ‘Well, I’m going to have people coming into my establishment or my store or what have you. Some are going to be vaccinated, some are not. I’m not going to know the difference,’” he continued.

 

“Some might be infected and might actually have a risk of infecting someone else,” he added. “And under those circumstances, it’s perfectly reasonable and understandable for the owner of that establishment to say, ‘You know, we’re going to keep the mask mandate up.’ And that’s what we’re seeing”:

 

Some major retailers have, by contrast, lifted their hardline mask mandates following the CDC’s updated guidance, including Target and Walmart.

 

Target, for example, announced on Monday the end of its store policy requiring all customers to wear masks.

 

“Given the CDC’s updated guidance last week, Target will no longer require fully vaccinated guests and team members to wear face coverings in our stores, except where it’s required by local ordinances,” the company said in a statement, adding that it will continue to “strongly” recommend unvaccinated individuals to wear face coverings. However, customers will not be asked to provide proof of receiving a vaccine. Home Depot is also following suit, dropping the mask requirement for vaccinated customers.

 

Over 123 million people in the U.S. are considered “fully vaccinated,” per the CDC’s May 17 data.

Report: Pentagon’s Counter Extremism Group Designing Pilot Program to Surveil Military

 

The Biden Pentagon’s new Counter Extremism Working Group (CEWG) is planning to surveil members of the military’s social media accounts for “extremism” using a private surveillance firm in order to circumvent First Amendment restrictions on government monitoring, according to a recent report.

 

Babel Street is currently the frontrunner for private surveillance firms the Pentagon is considering, the Intercept reported Tuesday.

 

The firm buys bulk cellular location data and sells it to federal government agencies, including the Secret Service, to bypass surveillance warrant requirements, according to the report.

 

The Pentagon announced in April it would look into screening service members and recruits’ social media accounts, as Breitbart News has reported.

 

The Pentagon’s memo said one of the CEWG’s four lines of effort (LOE) includes pursuing better screening of troops’ and recruits’ social media. It said:

 

This LOE will examine the Department’s pursuit of scalable and cost effective capabilities to screen publically [sic] available information in accessions and continuous vetting for national security positions. The LOE will make recommendations on further development of such capabilities and incorporating algorithms and additional processing into social media screening platforms. This LOE will also endeavor to develop policy to expand user activity monitoring of both classified and unclassified systems.

 

However, the Pentagon had not identified what firms it would rely on to conduct the monitoring. The CEWG is being led by Bishop Garrison, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin’s senior adviser on diversity and inclusion efforts.

 

A spokesperson for the House Armed Services Committee provided the Intercept with a statement:

 

The Committee understands that the Department of Defense is exploring a means of implementing social media screening in conjunction with background investigations. We anticipate that any social media screening would be intended only as an additional means of vetting cleared individuals or those seeking to obtain a security clearance, not as a tool for ongoing surveillance of all men and women in uniform. That said, Secretary Austin has been clear about his intentions to understand to what extent extremism exists in the force and its effect on good order and discipline. We look forward to hearing the results of the stand down and the Department’s plan to move forward.

 

The pilot program will use keywords to identify potential extremists, a senior Pentagon official told the outlet.

 

Civil rights experts expressed alarm.

 

“Using key words to monitor social media isn’t just an unnecessary privacy invasion, it is a flawed strategy that will ensure it is short-lived,” Mike German, a fellow at the Brennan Center for Justice’s Liberty and National Security Program, told the Intercept. “It will undoubtedly produce a flood of false positives that will waste security resources and undermine morale, without identifying the real problem, which is the tolerance for those that openly engage in racist behavior and discrimination.”

 

Harsha Panduranga, counsel for the Brennan Center’s Liberty & National Security Program, added, “There is little evidence that social media screening is an effective screening tool … . But we do know that facilitating dragnet surveillance of the modern public square harms free speech and privacy, imposing a disparate impact on people who have traditionally borne the brunt of government profiling in the name of national security.”

Six Months After 2020 Election, Fulton County, Georgia Is Still Missing Legally Required Chain of Custody Documentation on Nearly 19,000 Ballots

 

Six months after the 2020 Election, the legally required chain of custody documentation for over 18,000 ballots is still missing in Fulton County (Atlanta) Georgia. The related ballots are effectively illegitimate without the legally required documentation.

 

We’ve reported for months that the chain of custody documentation in the state of Georgia for absentee ballots is missing for hundreds of thousands of ballots (most likely all for Biden). Biden was awarded the state of Georgia by the likes of Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger and his sidekick, Gabe Sterling, with a winning margin of roughly 10,000 ballots. They certified the state’s results with this legally required documentation missing.

 

Six months after the November 3, 2020 election, Fulton County has failed to produce complete chain of custody documents for 18,901 vote-by-mail absentee ballots deposited by voters into drop boxes.

 

The Fulton County missing documentation is a little more than five percent of the estimated 333,000 vote-by-mail absentee ballots cast in the November 3, 2020 general election for which chain of custody documentation is still missing.

 

Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger has refused to collect, count, and verify the chain of custody documentation associated with an estimated 600,000 absentee vote by mail ballots deposited in drop boxes in the 2020 general election. Instead, Raffensperger has said it is a county responsibility. The Georgia Star News has filed Open Records Requests with all 159 counties in the state to obtain this documentation and report on it to the public.

 

The Trump team should file legal charges today against the state of Georgia and its corrupt Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger for certifying the election with this documentation missing.

Immigration rescues human trafficking victims bound for UAE

 

Immigration officers intercepted several trafficking victims bound for the United Arab Emirates who were given fake itineraries by their recruiters.

 

Commissioner Jaime Morente said they discovered an emerging modus wherein Filipino female workers present work documents bound for Maldives but are actually bound for the UAE.

 

He said this would fall under third-country recruitment, wherein overseas Filipino workers are being sent to work in one country before they are illegally transported to another.

 

“The same modus was usually seen in victims rescued from war-torn countries such as Syria,” he said.

 

BI-Travel Control and Enforcement Unit officers from NAIA Terminal 3 reported the interception of two female OFWs victims aged 26 and 33, who presented valid overseas employment certificates, work visas, employment contracts, and itineraries bound for Maldives.

 

However, upon verification with online systems, it was discovered that both victims were also in possession of valid tourist visas for the UAE.

 

The two OFWs admitted they received their documents only prior to departure, and one of the victims said she was instructed by their recruiter to conceal her UAE visa.

 

She admitted that they applied to work as domestic helpers, but were given documents to work as sales assistants in Maldives.

 

TCEU Officers from Clark International Airport, on the other hand, intercepted two other female victims.

 

Both presented documents to work in Maldives – one as an attendant and the other as a receptionist – but were also found to be in possession of visas for the UAE.

 

One of the victims admitted that she was promised work as a cleaner in UAE, and that she paid P37,000 to her recruiter for the processing of her travel documents.

 

Her companion, who was repatriated from the UAE last year, admitted she is heading back to work in the Middle East country as a household service worker.

 

“This scheme victimizes our kababayan and tricks them into accepting offers below standard rates. When they get to the third country, many end up being abused but do not report for fear of being deported,” Morente said.

Anti-triad team tasked to investigate the case involving Senior Assistant Commissioner Frederic Choi has submitted report to justice department

Choi had been ordered to step away from his role for nearly a month

 

Hong Kong police

have cleared the No 2 officer in the force’s National Security Department of any illegal or immoral conduct after he was caught during a raid on an unlicensed massage parlour, but revealed for the first time sex services were provided on the premises.

 

The anti-triad team tasked to investigate the case involving Senior Assistant Commissioner and Director of National Security Frederic Choi Chin-pang also revealed the raid took place in late March, more than a month before the incident came to light.

 

The Post exclusively reported last Wednesday that Choi had been ordered to step away from his role for nearly a month over alleged misconduct.

 

Hours later, Commissioner of Police Chris Tang Ping-keung confirmed the report and revealed Choi was placed on leave. But he did not elaborate on the details of the raid, including the timing of the operation and whether the parlour provided sex services.

Tuberville Demands Ban on Federal Pension Fund Investment in China

 

Legislation would ban civil service pension investments from going to Chinese companies

 

 

Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R., Ala.) introduced legislation to block billions in taxpayer funding from going to China.

 

The senator aims to prevent the federal Thrift Savings Plan (TSP), a retirement fund for federal workers and the military, from investing in companies connected to the Chinese military and other Chinese Communist Party operations. In 2019, TSP fund managers announced plans to invest $54 billion in an index fund with roughly 8 percent of its capital going toward Chinese companies. The TSP board put the plan on hold in May 2020, citing uncertainty in world markets caused by the coronavirus pandemic. Tuberville told the Washington Free Beacon his legislation reflects a "common sense" approach to confronting China that restricts Beijing’s access to the wallets of everyday working Americans.

 

"Not one dime of [our money] needs to go to anything funding the CCP or anything it intends to build against the United States of America or our troops," Tuberville said. "This is a common-sense approach of doing what we can for military and government workers not to fund what’s going on in China. This should be bipartisan. We can fight back by not sending over money to invest in what they do."

 

The Alabama Republican's bill, introduced Tuesday, would prohibit TSP investment in companies located in China or owned by Chinese entities.

 

Liberal activists have used divestment as a tactic to pressure financial institutions and private companies. Pension funds in New York, California, and other Democrat-controlled cities and states have cut ties with fossil fuel and gun companies, as well as other industries at odds with the progressive agenda. Colleges from Yale to the University of New Mexico have moved to pull their endowments from some fossil fuel companies, and students and faculty at schools such as Oberlin and the University of Albany have called on administrators to follow suit.

 

Tuberville said his bill will apply the same type of economic pressure to prevent money from being used by the Chinese regime's human-rights abusers and aggressive military. He urged the Biden administration to support the bill to follow through on the president's claim that he will hold China accountable.

 

"We’ve still got the same board that is intact from the Obama administration," Tuberville said of the TSP board. "Now that we have a new administration in the White House, we’re just trying to make sure that the retirement money from military and civilians doesn’t get invested in China…. We’d like to be proactive about this."
