BVs are tired of ebaking and will use anything the cat drags in. Anime (one of many personas) grabs the opportunities to spam the board as the baker.

 

As you saw the last bread, complaints fall on deaf ears and other bakers are not allowed to push the persona out of the bakery. Anons have to improvise and overcome. [They] can't stop anons. Jim has the board cruising and anons are laying the lumber.

 

o7 anon - love and light to you.

Whistleblower lawsuit against Fulton DA claims misuse of funds

 

A former employee of the Fulton County District Attorney’s Office has filed a whistleblower lawsuit, saying she was wrongfully terminated for uncovering misused funds. Amanda Timpson sued Fulton DA Fani Willis on Monday, according to records from the Fulton County Superior Court. In addition to the allegations of misappropriated grant funds, Timpson says one of Willis’ subordinates racially discriminated against her for having a natural hair style. A spokesman for the DA’s office gave the following comment about the unproven allegations: “This employee was a holdover from the prior administration. Management attempted to find a role she could fill, but was unsuccessful after transferring within the office three times. All of her supervisors found her performance to be inadequate. Her failure to meet the standards of the new administration led to her termination. We have not been served with the lawsuit and will not comment further except in court.” Timpson’s attorney, David Betts, did not respond to a request for comment.

 

Willis already has a lot on her plate: Her office is chasing down reluctant witnesses in the most notable non-federal investigation into former President Donald Trump

Will a Renewed Iran Nuclear Deal Cut Energy Prices?

The old 'carrot and stick' - [They] are offering Americans 'reduced fuel costs' in return for re-implementing the 'Iran Deal'. If it sounds too good to be true, it's probably because it is.

 

As Russia squeezes Europe on supplies of natural gas and Europe readies an embargo on Russian oil, some are looking for help from Iran. That is, of course, if and when Tehran and Washington agree to revive the 2015 nuclear deal, lifting tough economic sanctions on Iran that have limited its ability to export energy.

 

But even if a deal comes tomorrow, putting it in place will be complicated and phased, and it is likely to take several months before sanctions on Iran are lifted. There may be an early impact on the oil market to soothe nerves, but supplies would come too late to alleviate world markets this winter, experts say.

 

For Europe, oil is not really the problem. Russia is denying large amounts of natural gas to European countries, which are trying to source it elsewhere. While Iran has lots of natural gas, it uses most of it domestically, including for many automobiles, and it lacks pipelines to Europe or facilities to liquefy natural gas.

 

“Iran in the short term will have some additional oil exports, but not gas, which is what Europe really needs,” said Simone Tagliapietra, an energy expert at Bruegel, an economic research institution. “I would not bet on Iran to rebalance the global energy market anytime soon.”

 

Jacob Funk Kirkegaard, an economist with the German Marshall Fund, said that “what Europe needs is gas and there’s no way to get it there from Iran and not in a time frame that matters to anyone this winter.”

HAWKISH DEMOCRATS RAMP UP CAMPAIGN AGAINST POSSIBLE NEW IRAN DEAL

8/31/22

A letter led by Rep. Josh Gottheimer previews the talking points Iran hawks will use to undermine Joe Biden’s push to get the U.S. back into the Iran nuclear deal.

 

WITH EXPECTATIONS OF a revived Iran nuclear deal growing, Iran hawks in Congress are positioning themselves to make U.S. reentry into the agreement a painful political ordeal, according to a draft letter circulating on Capitol Hill. With President Joe Biden reportedly coming close to reviving the agreement, the letter telegraphs the opposition he could face from Congress. Such efforts would be a reprisal of the fight in 2015, when President Barack Obama worked to push through the original Iran nuclear deal and faced right-leaning pro-Israel forces in Congress — including Democrats — that tried to block it. Led by conservative New Jersey Democrat and perennial obstructionist Rep. Josh Gottheimer, the letter lays out a policy on the nuclear deal that, rather than reviving Obama’s deal, would follow in the footsteps of President Donald Trump, who unilaterally withdrew from the deal despite an international consensus that it was working to restrain Iran’s nuclear program.

“We are deeply concerned about multiple provisions that reportedly may be contained in the final language of any agreement with the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism,” the pro-Israel Democrats wrote in the draft of the letter, which was obtained by The Intercept. “Concerningly, news accounts suggest that the agreement may suspend terrorism sanctions on the Central Bank of Iran, the National Development Fund and the National Iranian Oil Company, designated by the previous administration for supporting terrorism.” For some defenders of the Iran deal on Capitol Hill, the letter makes specious arguments and stands as an affront to Democratic voters who made their views on the agreement clear. “The bottom line is Joe Biden was elected on an explicit commitment to rejoining the deal,” Matt Duss, a foreign policy adviser for Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., told The Intercept. “Biden himself has made the best available case for rejoining the Iran deal — one that has conclusively addressed most of the continuing complaints.”

France's Macron hopeful of Iran nuclear deal in next few days

9/1/22

 

PARIS, Sept 1 (Reuters) - France's president said on Thursday he hoped a deal to revive the Iran nuclear deal would be concluded in the coming days. "I hope that in the next few days the JCPOA will be concluded," Emmanuel Macron said, referring to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action as the deal is formally known, in a speech to French ambassadors.

Inside the U.S. response to Iran on the draft nuclear deal

 

The U.S. told Iran through EU mediators that linking the UN investigation of Iran's undeclared nuclear activity to the reimplementation of the 2015 nuclear deal could delay lifting U.S. sanctions, according to a U.S. official and a think tank expert briefed on the issue.

 

Why it matters: The issue of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) investigations is one of the two remaining stumbling blocks in returning to the 2015 nuclear agreement.

 

Tehran demands the IAEA probes that focus on uranium particles UN investigators found at several Iranian sites be closed ahead of “reimplementation day” — 120 days after a new nuclear deal is signed.

Driving the news: According to the draft nuclear deal presented by the EU, the agreement's implementation would take place in several stages. The parties would move to the next stage only after full implementation of the steps they committed to taking, sources briefed on the draft said.

 

Stage three — reimplementation day — is expected to take place four months after the nuclear deal is signed. In this stage, Iran is expected to finish implementing all of the limitations on its nuclear program and resume the full IAEA inspection regime on its nuclear sites, the sources said.

The U.S. in return would lift all secondary sanctions on Iran and take other steps, including engaging with the private sector on how to do business with Iran.

Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi said on Monday that resolving the IAEA investigation issue is a pillar of any nuclear deal and without it, “It is meaningless to talk about an agreement."

 

Between the lines: The four-month period between signing the deal and reimplementation day will give time to reach an agreement between the IAEA and Iran on the open investigations.

 

But it is unlikely Iran will agree to give the IAEA the clarifications it seeks. This could eventually lead to a suspension in the implementation of the deal.

U.S. officials hope the fact that Iran gets most of its sanctions relief only after reimplementation day will give the Iranians an incentive to continue implementing the agreement even if the IAEA investigations are not closed.

What they're saying: "The deal will be step by step and implementation for implementation — the Iranians won’t get it all at once, '' a U.S. official said.

Could the Prospect of Lower Gas Prices Be Motivating Biden’s Revival of the Iran Deal?

 

It appears that we are days away from the revival of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), otherwise known as the Iran Deal, the infamous agreement on Iran’s nuclear program between the Islamic Republic and the U.S., U.K., Russia, China, France, and Germany that the Trump administration withdrew from. Restoring the accord would have grave geopolitical consequences for the wider region and be a boon for America’s adversaries. But one unappreciated aspect of the pact’s resurrection is how it could benefit Democrats politically.

 

As soon as the deal is inked, Iran can increase its oil production by as much as 900,000 barrels daily, easing supply pressures significantly and bringing down prices in global energy markets. If crude-oil prices drop, prices at the pump will come down with them.

 

Lower gas prices would be a much-needed reprieve for consumers, but would also benefit Democrats politically in the run-up to the midterms. And achieving that desired outcome in this manner strengthens a regime hostile to the U.S. while enabling Biden and Democrats to escape the blame for the consequences of their policies, which are hostile to U.S. energy independence and incentivize foreign energy producers over domestic fossil-fuel production.

 

Now they think they can have their cake and eat it too: Reorient U.S. Middle East policy along pro-Iran lines — a longtime goal of the Obama administration, now sought by Biden — and get low gas prices.

 

This could help explain why the administration has been so quick to disregard the pleadings of our closest ally in the region, Israel, and do something that former national-security adviser John Bolton says is a “stunning mistake.”
