Tough the only person in America that can make that decision is the President, the Courts have no say in security clearances. They are definitely going way out of the corner. It's a solid rule and used by every President forever, it's not some new mandate.

seriously think about the question you asked? Did you ever think all these drugs are supposed to get you addicted to something, that food too, they even change the taste with aborted baby cells, so people eat more. I doubt you are an anon.

Sundance was right, this guy is not going to make it, he's been very undercover but if he's a neocon, and comped, which he is, it's time to move him out.
thanks for the tip.

First PHOTOS of Jude Law as Putin emerge
The British actor portrays the Russian leader in the political thriller ‘The Wizard of the Kremlin’
British actor Jude Law, who is portrayingRussian President Vladimir Putin in ‘The Wizard of the Kremlin’, has been spotted on the set of the film, according to photos circulating on social media.
The film ==follows the story of a fictional political operative, presumably loosely based on former Putin aide Vladislav Surkov–, who helps the Russian leader rise to power.
The image, shared on Tuesday by Novaya Gazeta Europe, shows Law wearing a dark suit on a stage in Riga, Latvia while surrounded by extras.
’The Wizard of the Kremlin’ focuses on Vadim Baranov, a fictional former avant-garde artist-turned TV producer who becomes the chief political adviser to a rising figure within Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB) – soon revealed as Vladimir Putin in the 1990s.
“Working at the heart of Russian power, Baranov blurs truth with lies, the news with propaganda, directing the entire society like one great reality show,”the film’s synopsis reads.
The film is based on Giuliano da Empoli’s bestseller novel of the same name, published in April 2022. That year, it won the Grand prix du roman de l’Academie francaise.
Though Baranov is a fictional character, he is considered to be modeled after Vladislav Surkov, a former aide to Putin who served as deputy prime minister and a senior official in the presidential administration, and is often described as the Kremlin’s ‘gray cardinal’.
He is also known as a proponent of ‘sovereign democracy’, the idea of building a strong state with a focus on the material well-being of the population. More recently, he has predicted the expansion of the ‘Russian world’ as well as a rapprochement between Moscow and the West.
Commenting on the upcoming film, Surkov said, “No one is safe from this.”
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov noted thatno one contacted the Russian authorities about the film, and that the Kremlin did not know the exact plot of the story. (lawsuit?)
Law is no stranger to portraying Russian or Russian-linked figures. In ‘Enemy at the Gates’ (2001), he played renowned Soviet sniper Vasily Zaitsev in a dramatization of the Battle of Stalingrad. He also starred in ‘Anna Karenina’ (2012) as Aleksey Karenin, a senior government official in Imperial Russia.
Law also played Dr. Watson in Guy Ritchie’s Sherlock Holmes franchise opposite Robert Downey Jr., and received critical acclaim for playing a manipulative pontiff in The Young Pope series.

25 Mar, 2025 15:47This is a BIG DEAL
White House reveals details of US-Russia talks in Riyadh
The negotiations revolved around safe navigation in the Black Sea and Russian access to the world agricultural market
The White House has released a short statement on the US-Russia negotiations in Saudi Arabia, shedding some light on the more than 12-hour talks held on Monday.
The “bilateral technical-level talks” focused on the situation in the Black Sea, as well as the agreement to halt strikes on “energy facilities of Russia and Ukraine” proposed by US President Donald Trump[[, the White House said on Tuesday.
“The United States and Russia have agreed to ensure safe navigation, eliminate the use of force, and prevent the use of commercial vessels for military purposes in the Black Sea,” the statement reads.
TheUS has also pledged to “help restore Russia’s access to the world market for agricultural and fertilizer exports, lower maritime insurance costs, and enhance access to ports and payment systems for such transactions,” according to the White House. Both Moscow and Washington remaincommitted to “working toward achieving a durable and lasting peace” to end the Ukraine conflict, it added.
Earlier in the day, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov confirmed that the negotiations explored the possibility of reviving the defunct Black Sea Grain Initiative, originally brokered in July 2022 by the UN and Türkiye. The deal envisioned the safe passage of Ukrainian agricultural exports in exchange for the West lifting restrictions on Russian grain and fertilizer trade. Moscow declined to renew the deal in 2023, citing the West’s failure to meet its obligations.
To renew the deal, Moscow needs firm guarantees from the US, which can “only result from a direct order issued by Washington to [Ukraine’s Vladimir] Zelensky and his team,” Lavrov explained, pointing to Kiev’s habit of breaking promises. Russia’s position now“is simple: We cannot take anyone’s word at face value,”he said in an interview with Channel 1.
“We need the clearest, most specific, verifiable, working guarantees and mechanisms [to revive the deal],” Lavrov stated. “We want the grain and fertilizer market to be predictable so that no one tries to kick us out of this market.”
