Judge in Former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters Summary Remarks Before Sentencing Sends a Chilling Message to Election Officials and Election Integrity Activists

Judge’s Sentencing Remarks

During the sentencing last week, several witnesses both for the defendant and the prosecution made comments to the judge prior to his decision. But the most concerning portion. The judge alluded to several claims he presented as fact despite no findings of such. Any allusion to impropriety in the elections or election systems in Mesa County and Colorado in general were shot down during the trial.

The judge’s remarks started off with a harsh condemnation of Peters by calling here ‘privileged.’

Judge Barrett remarked:

“You don’t have those histories of drug and alcohol abuse…there’s no lifetime of trauma, not even close to the type of mitigating circumstances that I would see from folks who sit in that chair. No, to the contrary Ms. Peters, you are a ‘privileged’ person. You are as ‘privileged’ as they come. And you used that privilege to obtain power, a following, and fame. And to be sure there’s no doubt in my mind that it is exactly what you wanted. And it defies all sense of common sense to believe when you suggested to me a few moments ago that you didn’t want this attention. No, no you crave it, ma’am. And there is no one in this courtroom who would consider that to be anything other than the absolute truth.”

The judge essentially compared, as tragic as it may be, self-inflicted ‘traumas’ such as alcohol and drug abuse with losing her son (during her campaign) during his service to this country as a Navy SEAL and then losing her husband under controversial circumstances during this persecution. It is worth noting that her son’s death also raises eyebrows as he died during a parachuting accident when both his primary and back up chutes failed to deploy. Peters revealed during the trial that her son had been working with officials in his capacity as a SEAL to thwart human-trafficking.

“Privileged.” Sympathy for drug addicts and alcoholics while casting sheer disdain at a gold-star widow.

Mi5 blames Russia for ‘mayhem on the streets’

Britain’s security chief has sought more power and funding to fight “foreign threats”

British support for Ukraine has made London a target of Moscow’s spies, the head of the British Security Service, Ken McCallum, has claimed.

In an annual speech on threats said to be facing the UK, McCallum listed Russia after terrorism, above Iran and China, while demanding more funding and warning about the dangers of the internet.

”The UK’s leading role in supporting Ukraine means we loom large in the fevered imagination of [Russian President Vladimir] Putin’s regime, and we should expect to see continued acts of aggression here at home,” McCallum said on Tuesday.

“The GRU in particular is on a sustained mission to generate mayhem on British and European streets: we’ve seen arson, sabotage and more,” he added, using the acronym for Russian military intelligence.

According to McCallum, this “concerted campaign” requires “a strong and sustained response,” including the use of the new National Security Act “to its fullest extent.”

McCallum was the key force lobbying for the 2023 law, which granted Britain’s security and intelligence agencies wide-ranging new powers to battle alleged “malign activity undertaken by foreign actors” such as espionage, sabotage, or attempts to meddle in UK politics.

Britain’s Security Service is unofficially known as MI5, while the external Secret Intelligence Service is MI6. Both are descended from the Secret Service Bureau, founded in 1909.

Brazil Reinstates X After Musk Meets Demands

The move comes after X ultimately complied with all of de Moraes' demands - including blocking certain accounts from the platform, paying outstanding fines, and naming a new legal representative, AP reports.

Elon Musk's X was blocked on Aug. 30 after refusing to block certain accounts implicated in investigations of alleged spreading of distorted news and what court officials said is hate speech.

An estimated 20-40 million people use X in Brazil, a country of 213 million people.

The unbanning came hours after Brazil's top prosecutor's office issued a legal opinion that it no longer sees any reason to prevent X from being reinstated.

Hidden Camera Footage Reveals Mexican Army Assisting Migrants Crossing Border

"We search and rescue people at the border… We make sure they don’t cross," says 20-year-old Jose Luis Anteno, a member of the Mexican Army, as he shares his role in preventing migrants from crossing at the U.S.-Mexico border. "We haven’t seen any movement," Anteno claims, insisting the Mexican Army's role is to stop migrants from crossing.

North Korea Becoming A Nuclear 'Military Superpower', Kim Jong Un Declares

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has said his country is becoming a "military superpower" capable of deploying nuclear weapons, an option which would not be ruled out in the case of an enemy attack.

"Our steps toward becoming a military superpower and a nuclear power will accelerate," Kim declared in a Monday speech at the University of National Defense. He specifically cited the US concentration of its forces, including nuclear assets, on the Korean peninsula in support of Seoul as a reason for pursuing nuclear superpower status.

"The military alliance of the United States and the Republic of Korea, has flouted by the puppets themselves, has become completely nuclear-based, and we need to keep our military preparedness at an endlessly high level," Kim said.

Far-right extremist Jacob Hersant to be jailed for Nazi salute but length of sentence still to be determined

The 25-year-old was the first Victorian charged with performing the Nazi salute in October 2023, just six days after new legislation banning the gesture came into effect.

This morning, Magistrate Brett Sonnet found the only "appropriate sentencing order" was a term of imprisonment, but said he was not yet in a position to determine the length of the sentence.

Hersant was outside the County Court last year, having just been sentenced for another offence, when he raised his arm and made a salute in front of journalists.

He quickly lowered his arm and said: "Oh, nearly did it, it's illegal now isn't it?"

As he walked away, Hersant called out: "Australia for the white man, heil Hitler."

Imran Khan charged with attempted murder after police officer killed during protests in Pakistan

Police allege he urged his followers to rally on his behalf and demand his release from prison, ultimately leading to the killing of officer Abdul Hameed.

According to police official Murtaza Qamar, the police officer was critically injured in clashes between Mr Khan's supporters and police in Islamabad and died in hospital.

Over the weekend, the country's capital was in complete lockdown, with mobile phone service suspended and key roads into Islamabad blocked with shipping containers to try to thwart the rally by tens of thousands of Mr Khan's supporters.

The father had been trying out vapes in a bid to quit cigarettes when the contraption began to start 'fizzing and sparking like a firework' in his jeans.

Following the incident which took place with his daughter present, he has issued an urgent warning to others who may 'potentially [be] walking around with a ticking time bomb in their pocket'.

Ron Paul: American Neocons Get Their Iran War As Congress Sleeps

It was the Israeli missile attack on Tehran – an unprecedented event – that set off this chain of escalation, but few would know if from media coverage. This war fever between Israel and Iran not only has nothing to do with us, but our increasing involvement actually hurts our national interests in the region.

After a deadly and futile three-year proxy war against Russia in Ukraine, the last thing we need is another war in the Middle East, especially against Iran. But make no mistake, war is what we are getting. This Administration has even offered to "compensate" Israel with even more weapons and diplomatic support if they hit targets of the US choosing and avoid others in Iran.

Imagine if China sent military officials to Iran to pay Tehran to make sure some US targets were struck and others avoided. Would we consider it Iran’s war against us, or China’s war against us? Both?

Has Congress declared war on Iran or even authorized the war? No.

Has this Administration explained to us why Americans suffering after the catastrophic Hurricane Helene are on their own because we need to spend billions on a war that is none of our business? No. The neocons have wanted this war for decades and for them it’s always America last.

This war will make us less free, less safe, and much poorer. There will be no benefits at all, only downside.

Will the Biden/Harris Administration greenlight Israel taking out Iran’s oil production and other energy facilities? That would mean the average American already suffering under high inflation and an economic downturn would be paying orders of magnitude higher for not just gasoline, but everything. Consider the cost of shipping and trucking and every aspect of our lives that depends on world energy prices. It would be an economic calamity for Americans for the benefit of a foreign country. This is what they call patriotism?
