Michigan’s Lawless AG Dana Nessel’s Office FINALLY Responds To Cover-Up of MI State Police Report About Semi-Automatic Rifles and Guns with Silencers… Unfortunately, Several BIG HOLES Found in Her Response

Publications across America have traditionally responded to news that has either damaged a political party or an individual tied to a scandal on a Friday. In the world of journalism, it’s referred to as “news dump day” because most people in the business of publishing news know that traffic is traditionally at its lowest point on Friday. For example, if a story like the one published on the Gateway Pundit on Tuesday, which revealed a stunning cover-up of a massive multi-state investigation by MI AG Dana Nessel and MI SOS Jocelyn Benson’s office was published on Tuesday, it would make sense that Craig Mauger, their go-to-guy at the Detroit News, would publish an article to defend their indefensible silence on Friday.

It took Democrat defender and Detroit News writer Craig Mauger a full three days to compose a response to the Gateway Pundit’s bombshell story that exposed Michigan’s top law enforcement officer and top election official as two individuals who’ve been lying to their constituents for almost three years about there being no “widespread voter fraud” in Michigan. The Detroit News headline hilariously reads:

Michigan probe into fraudulent voter registrations referred to FBI

What Craig Mauger curiously leaves out of his headline is a critically important detail—The Michigan State Police report initiated in October 2020 was taken over by the FBI in 2021. To the average reader, the Detroit News headline would suggest that Dana Nessel’s Attorney General’s office turned the investigation over to the FBI, but that’s not exactly what happened. At no point in Craig Mauger’s article, which is based entirely on statements by AG Nessel’s Press Secretary Danny Wimmer, does he mention why the FBI took over the report. In fact, no place in his article mentions how or when the FBI stepped in and took over the investigation.

But even more disturbing than the deceitful headline is the portion near the bottom of Mauger’s article, where Wimmer outlines the details about the semi-automatic rifles and guns with silencers that were found in one of the many vacant suites in Southfield, MI, used by GBI Strategies employees in their “voter registration” ring.

Mauger writes:

Gateway Pundit and other conservative websites have highlighted that “bags of pre-paid gift cards, guns with silencers (and) burner phones” were found during the search.

But substantiating evidence of a crime wasn’t found during the search, Wimmer said.

What Mr. Wimmer fails to mention is that there was a whiteboard found in the same room as the weapons. According to the report, “One of the white boards had several notes on it. One of the categories was “Hot Topics.” Under “Hot Topics,” listed: weapons in the field, prepared for shifts.”

If Craig Mauger were even a second-rate journalist, he would’ve asked why a whiteboard located in the room with a large cache of guns with silencers mentioned “weapons in the field” that were “prepared for shifts.”

The article, which is essentially a press release from Dana Nessel’s office, continues:

“Detected in this search were pay cards, pre-pay style cell phones and voter registration forms, all determined to be normal operational devices in GBI Strategies’ line of work,” Wimmer said. “Also found during the search were several firearms, which prompted a response from federal agents of the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms.

“All detected firearms were determined by federal authorities to be legally owned and incidentally stored in the location by an employee irrelevant to the business purposes of GBI Strategies. None of the materials seized resulted in furthering evidence of voter fraud.”

Rep. Jordan Touts Weaponization Panel’s Role in Exposing Government–Big Tech Censorship

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), who chairs the Weaponization subcommittee, has said that the panel’s investigation “has uncovered smoking gun documents showing how Big Tech and Big Government worked together to stifle free speech online.”

On Aug. 7, Mr. Jordan was one of 12 congressional Republicans who joined a lawsuit against the Biden administration’s censorship-by-proxy scheme that involved pressuring social media companies to stifle free speech.

The Weaponization subcommittee recently obtained a cache of files documenting alleged government collusion with Facebook to silence speech protected under the First Amendment.

“We know through the Facebook Files that the Biden Administration directed Big Tech companies to censor speech the government disagreed with, and launched a pressure campaign when companies did not comply with these censorship orders quickly enough,” Mr. Jordan said.

In May 2022, Republican attorneys general in Louisiana and Missouri filed a lawsuit against President Joe Biden and multiple government agencies, alleging that they pushed social media platforms to censor posts and remove accounts in what the complaint said was one of the “greatest assaults” on freedom of speech by the federal government in U.S. history.

Judge Terry A. Doughty of the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Louisiana ruled in favor of the attorneys general on July 4, issuing an injunction that banned government agencies from contacting or working with Big Tech companies to censor social media posts.

The Biden administration appealed, and on July 14 a three-judge panel for the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans granted the government’s request to place the censorship-by-proxy ban on hold.

In its appeal, the Biden administration contended that the government faced “irreparable harm” each day that the injunction remained in effect because it was so broad that federal agencies were blocked from communicating with social media companies for legitimate and lawful reasons, like fighting crime.

Judge Doughty denied the Department of Justice’s request to stay his earlier ruling.

“Although this Preliminary Injunction involves numerous agencies, it is not as broad as it appears,” Judge Doughty wrote on July 10. “It only prohibits something the Defendants have no legal right to do—contacting social media companies for the purpose of urging, encouraging, pressuring, or inducing in any manner, the removal, deletion, suppression, or reduction of content containing protected free speech posted on social-media platforms.”

Andy McCarthy Warns Special Counsel Has Ace In The Hole That Will Help Biden Win Reelection

Former U.S. assistant attorney Andy McCarthy said Monday on Fox News that newly appointed special counsel David Weiss may have a way to ensure President Joe Biden wins his reelection campaign.

Attorney General Merrick Garland announced Friday that Weiss would be appointed special counsel to continue the ongoing investigation into Hunter Biden. Weiss came under scrutiny after IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley testified that Weiss was not in control of the Hunter investigation. Weiss allegedly told a group of law enforcement officials in an Oct. 22 email that he was “not the deciding person on whether charges [would be] filed” in the Hunter case.

Weiss has denied those allegations.

McCarthy said he prefers to refer to Weiss as a “sham” rather than a special counsel, arguing the appointment was solely political.

“What Garland is doing, is assigning the case to Weiss, which is no change cause it has been assigned to him since 2018, and labeling him a special counsel but he is not a special counsel under the regulations of the Justice Department for that process. And the reason he is doing that is to try to convey the impression to people that there is some kind of independent integrity to this investigation, which is laughable given the way it has been conducted to this point.”

English Channel Migrant Crisis to Last At Least Another Five Years, Admits Leaked Govt Document

The waves of illegal migrants pouring across the English Channel is likely to last at least another five years, according to a leaked memo from the British government.

In a repudiation of Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s pledge to “stop the boats” carrying illegals from the French coasts, an internal document drafted within the Home Office on potential sites to hold migrants instead of continuing the exorbitantly expensive Covid-era policy of putting them up in hotels across the country tacitly admitted that the government is expecting the crisis to continue for five years, or perhaps longer.

The document, which was drafted in March, laid out the value for money (VfM) of four different locations including former military bases and prisons, according to The Telegraph.

“[Civil servant’s name] is satisfied with VfM [value for money] on Bexhill, Wethersfield and Scampton – on the former two we are saying there is VfM across the 5 years planned for the sites (Bexhill would potential be used for longer),” the memo stated.

“This assumes we are in hotels for that period. If we are not, and/or if our costs are higher than we have estimated, there could be issues on VfM. On Scampton, our recommendation (with HS [Home Secretary]) is to use the site for 3 years rather than 2.”

The document appears, therefore, to suggest that despite Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s pledge to end the people smuggler trade across the Channel, the government is expecting the practice to continue for the foreseeable future.

In June, Mr Sunak travelled to Dover — the coastal area where most illegals are brought ashore in Britain after typically being escorted by the French navy into UK waters — to deliver a speech hailing the success of his government’s policies in stemming the tide of boat migrants.

However, the prime minister was mocked for seemingly taking credit for the inclement weather, which had made crossings of the Channel difficult over the previous months. Indeed, just days following his speech, thousands of migrants began making the journey once again as the weather broke.

The policies enacted by Sunak’s government have seemingly been a mere continuation of those put forward by his former boss, Boris Johnson, namely paying France hundreds of millions in payoffs to step up police patrols of migrant camp areas like Calais and to hope that a deterrence factor will eventually be put in place if the courts finally approve the scheme to send illegals to a third-party country such as Rwanda.

So far this year, over 16,000 illegals have crossed the Channel, compared to around 18,600 at this time last year. Since the crisis began in earnest in 2018, over 100,000 migrants have reached British shores in small boats.

This has been a major contributing factor to the growing backlog of approximately 170,000 alleged asylum seekers awaiting their decision and the 51,000 being put up in hotels across the country at a cost of £6 million per day.

300 Children Murdered in Five Years in Mexican Border State, Say Officials

Public officials and activists are sounding the alarm that more than 300 children were murdered in the Mexican border state of Baja California during a five-year period. In many cases, those victims were killed as gunmen targeted a loved one nearby.

According to information released by the Baja California State Human Rights Commission, between 2017 and 2022, there were more than 300 underage murder victims in Baja California. The group’s leader, Miguel Angel Mora Marrufo, told the local news outlet AFN Tijuana, that the rise in murders is alarming and he was reaching out to the United Nations after seeing no real response from Mexico’s government.

Mora stated that children are innocent victims and should not be considered collateral damage as government officials have been doing.

The statements come soon after a group of gunmen shot and killed a four-year-old child and injured his mother and 12-year-old brother in Tecate, Baja California. The attack took place last week when the family was driving along a city street and a van pulled up next to them, Mexico’s N+ reported. The gunmen began shooting at the woman and children and chased them down as she tried to flee. Once the woman managed to drive away, she sought medical attention for her children. The gunmen also shot a 24-year-old man who was described as a bystander.

Just days before that murder, gunmen shot and killed two boys, ages 11 and 13, as they slept in their mobile home in Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico’s Proceso reported. Since then, authorities arrested one individual and continued to search for several other gunmen who are believed to have shot at the house from outside. Authorities have not revealed if the gunmen were targeting a relative or if they shot at the house by mistake.

The murder took place earlier this month in an area that has been plagued by cartel violence as rival organizations, including the Tijuana Cartel, the Sinaloa Cartel, and Cartel Jalisco New Generation, fight for control of lucrative drug corridors and various other businesses such as casinos and brothels.

US, Finland Negotiating Defense Agreement That Would See Deployment of American Troops

Washington and Helsinki are in the process of establishing a new defense cooperation agreement that would see expended deployments of American soldiers and Finland hosting war games.

Washington and Helsinki are working on a new deal to govern the military relationship between the two nations. Finland recently became the thirty-first member of NATO, doubling the alliance’s border with Russia.

According to YLE News, Finnish state media, Helsinki and Washington are negotiating a new Defense Cooperation Agreement (DCA). YLE said the new deal would be a “significant departure from its previous” DCA with the US.

Finland held a prolonged policy of official neutrality prior to joining NATO earlier this year. However, Helsinki established deep ties with the bloc over recent decades. The new DCA will expand America’s military presence to several Finnish bases, including ports and airports.

The outlet reports the new DCA will “permit the presence of foreign troops for extended periods, specifically for conventional military exercises…[and] grant US military personnel access to facilities and areas within Finland for training, weapons storage, and equipment maintenance.”

The war games and NATO soldiers will be viewed as a provocation by Russia, which shares an 800 miles border with Finland. Helsinki already hosts NATO troops for military drills near the Russian border.

When Helsinki announced its intention to join the North Atlantic bloc last year, the Kremlin warned about additional international troop deployments in Finland. Last week, Moscow announced it would deploy additional military assets to its border with NATO members.

Finnish negotiations have expressed some reservations about expanding the DCA with the US. YLE explains, “noting that the agreement excludes nuclear weapons,” and Helsinki wants all integration troops deployments to be labeled as temporary.

Why America’s Military Has Consistently Failed Since 1991

Ever since the U.S. military successfully defeated in Kuwait Iraq’s invasion against Kuwait, the U.S. military has sent U.S. forces abroad on around 250 occasions, according to the Congressional Research Service’s 7 June 2023 Report, “Instances of Use of United States Armed Forces Abroad, 1798-2023”, to conflicts (or sometimes national emergencies) in: Zaire, Sierra Leone, Iraq, Bosnia, Somalia, Macedonia, Haiti, Bosnia, Rwanda, Liberia, Central African Republic, Albania, Congo, Gabon, Cambodia, Guinea-Bisau, Kenya, Tanzania, Afghanistan, Sudan, Kosovo, East Timor, Yemen, Philippines, Cote d’Ivoire, Georgia, Greece, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Djibouti, Lebanon, Libya, Egypt, South Sudan, Central African Republic, Uganda, Niger, Jordan, Burundi, South Korea, Ukraine, Poland, Senegal, West Africa, Lithuania, Kuwait, Cameroon, Turkey, Cuba, Guatemala, Germany, Romania, Honduras, Syria, Peru, Uruguay, England, Sri Lanka, St. Maarten, Colombia, El Salvador, Trinidad, Thailand, Ukraine, Ecuador, Japan, Venezuela, Saudi Arabia, Panama, Tonga, Dominican Republic, Netherlands, Denmark, and Latvia. That’s 74 nations. And none of them had ever attacked, nor even threatened, America.

Most of these countries were being sent U.S. troops and/or weapons, and training, on more than one occasion; and some of these engagements were requested by the recipient’s Government for help to keep it in power, and some were sent to entire regions instead of to individual nations, such as, for example: “On February 12, 2020, the Secretary of Defense announced that the Army’s 1st Security Force Assistance Brigade, based at Fort Benning, GA, would deploy to Africa to provide training and assistance to African forces as a way to better compete with Russia and China … to ensure support with the National Defense Strategy’s priorities.” And, in 2022, America had “approximately 100,000 military personnel either permanently stationed or deployed to Europe and its waters.145” So: those 100,000 were permanent forces, military occupation, instead of temporary ones. But if the objective was against “terrorism,” and if this meant actually against jihadism, then where were the victories against that? And if the mission was instead for regime-change in Russia, China, Iran, Venezuela, etc., then where were the victories for that? Has there ever been a victory against Iraq, which we invaded many times and still occupy? There is coercion against Iraq, but where is the victory against Iraq? We destroyed Iraq, but never defeated it. Where is the victory against Libya? Where is the victory against Syria? America destroys lots of countries. Where is the victory against Ukraine (there was a generally successful U.S. coup there in February 2014, it turned Ukraine into a U.S. vassal-nation, a U.S. colony — but where is the U.S. victory in Ukraine now, after the U.S. coup)? Where is that victory now, 9 years after America’s successful takeover of Ukraine so as to defeat Russia?

EU Delivers Ukraine 224,000 Shells Under Ammo Plan

The EU has delivered Ukraine 223,800 shells under the first part of a plan to provide a million artillery rounds to aid Kyiv’s fight against Russia, a spokesman said on Friday.

Earlier this year, the 27-nation European Union pledged to step up supplies of much-needed artillery shells to Ukraine as Kyiv’s forces faced shortfalls.

Its members agreed to a two-billion-euro ($2.18-billion) plan to raid their stockpiles and place joint orders for shells, in a bid to deliver Ukraine a million shells over 12 months.

Under the first stage of the plan, running between February 9 and May 31, one billion euros was earmarked to reimburse EU members roughly half the cost of shells provided from their existing arsenals.

“Member states have delivered around 223,800 artillery ammunition — long-range self-propelled, precision-guided ammunitions as well as mortar ammunitions — and 2,300 missiles of all types,” EU spokesman Peter Stano said.

Overall, the total value of the ordnance provided was 1.1 billion euros, the EU said. EU funds reimbursed only part of that, suggesting the measure fell short of the target.

Friday’s new figure for artillery ammunition sent was just a small advance on the number — 220,000 shells — announced by EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell in late May.

EU countries had until July 15 to declare their deliveries.

This leaves the bloc and its members a long way off their target of one million shells by next spring.

In February, several EU capitals were already skeptical about vowing to hit a million, fearing they would fall short.

Under the second part of the plan, the EU’s defense agency is negotiating joint procurement contracts with European manufacturers for 155-mm howitzer shells and missiles.

“(The agency) expects framework contracts with industry to be signed in the coming weeks, allowing member states to place orders from then on,” the EU said.

Any contracts need to be concluded by the end of September to fall under the EU supply plan.

In total, the EU and its member states say they have spent some 20 billion euros supplying weaponry of all kinds to Ukraine since Russia invaded in February 2022.

As of July 25, the United States had committed more than $43.7 billion in security assistance to Ukraine, according to the Pentagon.

On Thursday, the White House asked the US Congress for another $13 billion in new military spending for Ukraine.

65 Afghan terrorists were let into the U.S. after Biden's chaotic withdrawal: Prisoner freed by the Taliban and men who planted IEDs got through dire vetting processes

Damning new book reveals more failures of the U.S. government in Afghanistan

Holes in the vetting process meant national security threats made it to the U.S.

Taliban fighters identified by an interpreter almost boarded evacuation flights

Militants who left fingerprints on IEDs meant to kill Americans in Afghanistan and a prisoner freed by the Taliban were among more than 65 terrorists allowed into the United States after the catastrophic withdrawal.

Most of them could still be roaming the country, and the government cannot track them down.

The damning revelations made in a new book add to the laundry list of blunders from the Biden administration during and after the disastrous evacuation of Kabul in August 2021.

It has been two years since the two weeks of carnage at Hamid Karzai International Airport that led to the deaths of 13 American service members, hundreds of Afghans, and thousands left behind.

Yet the evidence of the U.S. government's disastrous handling of the departure of troops after 20 years and the evacuation of allies is still coming to light.

Sixty-five individuals identified as 'national security risks' were granted entry into the U.S. in the 12 months after the withdrawal, Jerry Dunleavy and James Hasson write in Kabul: The Untold Story of Biden’s Fiasco and the American Warriors Who Fought to the End.

The book also reveals how the Biden administration missed two chances to prevent the Kabul suicide attack and the dire impact of putting the Taliban in charge of security.

The dangerous individuals let into the U.S. included multiple men whose DNA was found on explosives defused by American forces.

Another was a prisoner 'liberated' by the Taliban while they were running riot across the war-torn country on the way to Kabul.

Despite assurances the Taliban wouldn’t surge to power and the US-backed Afghan government would hold, the capital toppled as the Western military left.

An Afghan-American interpreter even identified many Taliban fighters on the tarmac, ready to board flights bound for the U.S.

Many were allowed to travel unchecked because of alarming flaws in the vetting process and severe shortages in staff dealing with the roughly 82,000 evacuees taken to the U.S.

Around 70 percent of those who came from Afghanistan were not American citizens, green card holders or under the Special Immigrant Visa (SIV) program, according to a Congressional memo released in the aftermath.

The dangerous suspects took seats on flights meant for U.S. citizens and allies.

Thousands were left behind as the final U.S. soldier left Kabul after 20 years - and many are still trying to get out if they have managed to evade capture by the Taliban.

UN Report: Israel Killed 167 Palestinians in Occupied West Bank since Start of Year

The number of Palestinians killed in the occupied West Bank by Israeli forces since the beginning of the year has reached 167. In 2022, the number amounted to 155.

The number of Palestinians killed in the occupied West Bank by Israeli forces since the beginning of the year has reached 167, the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UNOCHA) has disclosed in a report.

This figure surpasses the total number of Palestinians killed by Israeli occupation forces throughout 2022, which amounted to 155.

In addition to the Israeli army killings, an illegal Jewish settler shot and killed a Palestinian man and injured two others during a settler attack in the village of Burqa village, near Ramallah, on August 4 . This raised the number of Palestinians killed by settlers in the West Bank from the beginning of 2023 until August 7 to seven.

UNOCHA confirmed that, since the beginning of the year, 683 Palestinians have been injured with live ammunition by Israeli forces in the West Bank, more than double during the same period in 2022, which amounted to 307.

In the first six months of 2023, the UN recorded 591 settler-related incidents resulting in Palestinian casualties, property damage or both.

UNOCHA added that the Israeli occupation authorities demolished, confiscated or forced people to demolish 56 structures in East Jerusalem and Area C of the West Bank, including six homes, citing the lack of Israeli-issued building permits, which are almost impossible to obtain.

As a result, 23 Palestinians, including 12 children, were displaced, and the livelihoods of more than 3,500 others were affected.

SPLC expands 'Hate Map' by adding political and parents groups to hate extremists

It appears as if hate exploded in the United States last year, but SPLC's "Hate Map" data is inflated because 702 of 1,225 groups described by the map as "hate groups" are actually policy advocacy organizations with no connection to a "hateful" ideology.

The Southern Poverty Law Center is reporting a record low number of hate groups this year but is inflating the dots on its infamous "Hate Map" by redefining political policy and parents groups as anti-government organizations worthy of scrutiny.

The SPLC recorded 523 hate groups in its 2022 annual report. That is the fewest number of hate groups recorded since the SPLC started publishing its annual Hate Map in 2000. The organization doesn't mention this accomplishment in its annual report and instead focuses on hate they allege is being pushed by right-wing figures.

Rather than reflecting what most would find a cause for celebration, the latest Hate Map's headline states: "In 2022, we tracked 1,225 hate and antigovernment groups across the U.S."

All previous years' Hate Maps listed only hate groups, and 2022 had the highest number of groups tracked by the controversial "civil rights" organization. On the surface, it would appear as if hate exploded in the United States last year, by including 702 groups deemed "anti-government" into the data pool. The addition of policy groups inflated the totals on the map by 57%.

The SPLC acknowledged a difference between "hate groups" and "anti-government" groups: "Hate groups hold beliefs or practices that attack or malign an entire class of people, typically for their immutable characteristics, while antigovernment groups see the federal government as an enemy of the people and promote baseless conspiracy theories." The organization justified the commingling of the two because it claimed "far-right activists have embraced ever more violent rhetoric" and "their words are contributing to an atmosphere that breeds political violence."

Geographic errors in the map also abound. Most of the Moms for Liberty county chapters, of which there are 285 in 45 states, are placed in the middle of the states they are based out of, regardless of whether that is their actual location. The SPLC did not respond to requests for comment, or offer an explanation for their decision on where to locate the alleged hate groups.

Biden's Favorite Super PAC Used Illegal Scheme to Conceal Its Donors, Experts Say

Biden just months ago condemned dark money as a threat to democracy

President Joe Biden last year condemned so-called dark money as a "serious problem facing our democracy." Now, the unpopular Democrat is embracing a super PAC that experts say used an illegal scheme to conceal its donors.

The group, Future Forward, is led by former Obama campaign officials and has earned endorsements from Bidenworld as the "pre-eminent super PAC" supporting the president's reelection bid. Central to Future Forward's success is its ability to raise massive sums of money—nearly $400 million in the past five years—to run ads boosting Biden and other Democrats in battleground states. But the tactics Future Forward used to anonymously raise much of that money could lead to its downfall, legal experts told the Washington Free Beacon.

The Biden-endorsed super PAC’s largest donor is its affiliated dark money group, Future Forward USA Action, which as a nonprofit is not required to publicly disclose its donors. Should a donor direct the nonprofit to transfer their donation to Future Forward, however, the super PAC must reveal the donor's identity in federal campaign finance disclosures. Future Forward USA Action in its 2021 tax filings acknowledged that it "promptly and directly delivered" $3.4 million in donations to Future Forward—a designation that would require the super PAC to reveal donor identities, according to former Federal Election Commission chairman Bradley Smith. However, Future Forward declined to disclose who contributed the cash.

For Republican election lawyer Charlie Spies, Future Forward's failure to disclose donors who routed money through the dark money affiliate is a violation of federal election law. Spies noted that similar schemes have led to federal charges and "major fines."

"Future Forward USA Action admitted to making over $3 million in earmarked political contributions, where they apparently obscured the true super PAC donor's identity by routing the money through the nonprofit," Spies told the Free Beacon. "The U.S. DOJ has sent people to prison for this sort of illegal activity, and the FEC has imposed major fines on conservative organizations accused of less blatant earmarking."

Biden’s embrace of Future Forward comes less than a year after he endorsed a bill from Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D., R.I.) that promised to end the "scourge of dark money" corrupting American democracy. Biden told reporters in September that dark money, which consists of political contributions that cannot be traced to a donor, "erodes public trust" and should be outlawed. The Senate deadlocked 49-49 on the bill shortly after Biden’s remarks.

Now, as recent polls show Biden in a statistical tie in a 2024 rematch against former President Donald Trump, the Biden campaign is suggesting the president could soon headline fundraisers for Future Forward. Biden campaign manager Jennifer O’Malley Dillon in July called Future Forward’s work "critical" to the president’s 2020 victory and said the super PAC would "again play a key role" supporting his 2024 bid.

Russian Drones And Missiles Pound Ukrainian Sea Ports In New Wave Of Retaliation Strikes

On the night of August 14, Russian forces launched new wave of strikes on Ukrainian port and military infrastructure in different regions. According to the local reports, Russian missiles and UAVs were used during the attack. Kiev again acknowledges alleged strikes on civilian infrastructure, hiding truth about destruction of military facilities.

Air raid sirens sounded in Kiev, as well as in the Kiev region, the Kharkiv, Chernihiv, Dnipropetrovsk, Poltava and Sumy regions. Over the past night, successful Russian strikes were confirmed in the Odessa region and in the industrial zone in the city of Zaporozhie.

Massive combined strike of Russian missiles and UAVs hit the region of Odessa. The new wave of strikes on the Ukrainian ports is likely a response to the recent attempt of the Kiev regime to attack the Crimean Bridge and the Crimean peninsula. LINK

According to the Ukrainian reports, 15 Geranium UAVs and 8 Kaliber missiles were used for strikes. Despite the statements of the Ukrainian military about the successful operation of the air defence forces and interception of Russian targets, footage from the spot confirmed the opposite. Numerous explosions thundered in the regions, while heavy fires broke out in the local strategic facilities.

According to preliminary reports, facilities in the local sea port and fuel storage sited were destroyed in Kryzhanovka and the Oil Harbor in Odessa, as well as in Bugayevka.

International Crackdown on West African Organized Crime Nets 103 Suspects

A comprehensive international operation led to the detention of 103 individuals and the seizure of over two million euros (US$2.19 million) from West African organized crime groups groups that have turned into a serious global security threat.

The “Black Axe” and other West African organized crime groups have gained notoriety for their involvement in various cyber-enabled financial fraud schemes, including business email compromise, romance scams, inheritance scams, credit card fraud, tax fraud, advance payment scams, and money laundering.

The operation, conducted between May 15 and 29, involved law enforcement agencies from 21 countries and focused on disrupting the activities of such groups, Interpol announced last week.

Interpol's Financial Crime and Anti-Corruption Centre Director, Isaac Kehinde Oginni, emphasized that Interpol is dedicated to collaborating with member countries to dismantle these groups and freeze their ill-gotten assets. Oginni reiterated that tackling the illegal activities of Black Axe and similar syndicates remains a priority for Interpol.

The extensive investigation identified 1,110 suspects, and blocked 208 bank accounts. Nearly half of the seized money was recovered in Portugal while 34 suspects were detained in Ireland.

Originating from a student fraternity in Nigeria, the Black Axe mafia cult has earned a reputation as one of the most-feared organized crime syndicates in the country, involved in both fraudulent and extremely violent activities on a global scale, as reported by the BBC.

This latest operation builds upon prior efforts in 2022, which resulted in the seizure of 1.2 million euros (approximately US$1.3 million) from bank accounts and the arrest of 75 individuals. Interpol's commitment to combating West African organized crime remains steadfast, aiming to disrupt their financial networks and dismantle their operations.

How Smart Cities Will Lock Up Humanity Inside Open Air Concentration Camps

A Smart City is an urban environment with omnipresent surveillance and data harvesting technologies that will monitor and record even the most intimate, personal details of everyone.

The goal is to know everything about everybody: what you eat and drink, where you go, what you buy, who you meet, what you think, how you feel, your opinions, your habits, your health and vaccination status, and so on.

Every. Little. Detail. The justification for this all-encompassing surveillance is that it is supposedly essential to "save the planet" from climate change. They also guarantee it will make your life more connected, safer, and healthier.
