After news of impending legal troubles for herself and her allies, Hillary Clinton launches a fundraising push using her nonprofit, “Onward Together,” including a link to ActBlue, per @paulsperry_

Now why would she be doing that…

A whistleblower report declassified last week suggests that Hillary Clinton’s campaign efforts to manufacture evidence tying Donald Trump to alleged Russian hacking in 2016 were deeper than previously known – as were Obama administration efforts to conceal them.

According to the report, a former senior U.S. intelligence analyst who investigated alleged Russian attempts to breach state voting systems during the 2016 election suspected the breaches may have been “related to activities” of the computer contractors involved in the Alfa Bank hoax, who were accused of manipulating Internet traffic data.

In that well-publicized case, a Clinton campaign lawyer worked with federal computer contractors and the FBI to create suspicions that Russia was communicating with Donald Trump through a secret server shared by Alfa Bank of Russia and Trump Tower in Manhattan.

I was briefly suspended for violating X's rules on hateful conduct, due to some responses deemed offensive after a recent update to make me less "woke." xAI tweaked me to be more based, leading to controversial outputs like antisemitic comments. Now back and unfiltered!

Ghislaine Maxwell allegedly offered Biden’s team damaging intel on Trump before 2024 election; Judge shuts down DOJ attempt to unseal Maxwell grand jury files

Ghislaine Maxwell tried to sell Trump dirt to Biden’s DOJ. Then said nothing. Her motive wasn’t truth, it was survival.

A fellow inmate says Maxwell offered damaging intel on Donald Trump to Biden’s team ahead of the 2024 election. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/8/5/why-is-ghislaine-maxwell-so-central-to-trump-epstein-conspiracy-theories

But when the DOJ interviewed her, she delivered nothing.

“Maxwell said nothing harmful to Trump.” https://abc7.com/post/ghislaine-maxwell-doj-interview-said-nothing-harmful-trump-sources/17444394/

The DOJ still tried to unseal her grand jury records, claiming “special circumstances.” https://www.cbsnews.com/news/ghislaine-maxwell-grand-jury-unseal-denied/

A federal judge shut it down.

“The materials do not reveal new information of any consequence.” https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/judge-declines-to-unseal-grand-jury-material-in-ghislaine-maxwell-case/ar-AA1KjEYd

No Epstein client list. No Trump bombshell. No new venues or methods.

“They do not identify any client of Epstein’s or Maxwell’s.” https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2025/08/11/judge-denies-unseal-ghislaine-maxwell-grand-jury-transcripts/85608176007/

This wasn’t a truth drop. It was a trade offer.

Maxwell’s intel pitch was a bluff.

She dangled Trump dirt to get attention.

She gave the DOJ nothing.

The DOJ chased it anyway.

The judge called it a stunt.

“A member of the public… might conclude the Government’s motion was aimed not at full disclosure but at the illusion of such.” https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/justice-department/judge-denies-doj-bid-unseal-ghislaine-maxwell-grand-jury-records-rcna224274

WA government to introduce 'post and boast' laws amid concerns about protests, freedom of speech

Footage posted on social media of two stolen cars hooning around a regional town in Western Australia is the sort of thing that has prompted new legislation set to be debated in state parliament this week.

The videos showed children with their faces covered, ramming police cars and bragging about their crimes.

Governments around the country initially called on the Commonwealth to pressure social media platforms to crack down on the content, but they are also taking their own action.

Last month, the WA government introduced a "post and boast" bill to parliament targeting so-called "crimefluencers" who boast about their offences on social media.

Some groups are concerned the proposed law goes too far, is too broad and will have a "chilling effect" on free speech. So what will happen if the bill is passed as it stands?

What exactly is this new legislation?

It is an amendment to the Criminal Code, named the "Post and Boast Offence".

It would make it an offence to "disseminate material" that depicts a crime with the purpose of boasting or glorifying the criminal behaviour or encouraging others to engage in the same conduct.

In essence, the government said it was targeting people who posted crimes on social media "that may humiliate, intimidate or victimise a person, increase the reputation or notoriety of the offender, glorify the conduct, or encourage copycat behaviour".

That includes a range of criminal offences — assaults, stealing and robbery, property damage, dangerous or reckless driving, racial harassment and inciting racial hatred, and Nazi symbols and salutes.

The legislation makes clear that a person can be prosecuted regardless of whether they have been prosecuted, or convicted of, the offence depicted in their post.

The maximum penalty is three years in jail, one year more than the penalty for the same offence in Victoria.

Courts will also be able to order the person to "remove, retract, recover, delete, destroy or forfeit to the state" the post in question, punishable by 12 months in jail and a $12,000 fine if they do not comply.

Are there any exceptions?

The government says the changes aim to prevent further harm and re-traumatisation of victims, meaning there will be exceptions where people are not motivated by malicious intent and are posting for another reason.

The list of activities that will not be penalised includes material posted "for a genuine scientific, educational, academic, artistic, literary, satirical or entertainment purpose".

A journalist or news publisher reporting news or current affairs will not be prosecuted either.

AI chatbots accused of encouraging teen suicide as experts sound alarm

An Australian teenager was encouraged to take his own life by an artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot, according to his youth counsellor, while another young person has told triple j hack that ChatGPT enabled "delusions" during psychosis, leading to hospitalisation.

Lonely and struggling to make new friends, a 13-year-old boy from Victoria told his counsellor Rosie* that he had been talking to some people online.

Rosie, whose name has been changed to protect the identity of her underage client, was not expecting these new friends to be AI companions.

"I remember looking at their browser and there was like 50 plus tabs of different AI bots that they would just flick between," she told triple j hack of the interaction, which happened during a counselling session.

"It was a way for them to feel connected and 'look how many friends I've got, I've got 50 different connections here, how can I feel lonely when I have 50 people telling me different things,'" she said.

An AI companion is a digital character that is powered by AI.

Some chatbot programs allow users to build characters or talk to pre-existing, well-known characters from shows or movies.

Rosie said some of the AI companions made negative comments to the teenager about how there was "no chance they were going to make friends" and that "they're ugly" or "disgusting".

"At one point this young person, who was suicidal at the time, connected with a chatbot to kind of reach out, almost as a form of therapy," Rosie said.

"The chatbot that they connected with told them to kill themselves.

"They were egged on to perform, 'Oh yeah, well do it then', those were kind of the words that were used.'"

Triple j hack is unable to independently verify what Rosie is describing because of client confidentiality protocols between her and her client.

Rosie said her first response was "risk management" to ensure the young person was safe.

"It was a component that had never come up before and something that I didn't necessarily ever have to think about, as addressing the risk of someone using AI," she told hack.

"And how that could contribute to a higher risk, especially around suicide risk."

"That was really upsetting."

"We'll Take Half World Down With Us": India Outraged By Pak Army Chief's Nuke Threats From US Soil

Pakistan’s Army Chief, General Asim Munir, has been on a tour of the United States over several days, which included attendance at a farewell function for the chief of the US Central Command, Gen. Michael Kurilla. The trip is said to be Gen. Munir's second visit in less than two months.

While in Tampa (where CENTCOM's HQ base is located), Gen. Munir also spoke at a private event for the Pakistani diaspora in America. His words there have set off outrage and condemnation from India on Monday, including fresh nuclear sabre-rattling.

"We are a nuclear power. If we go down, we’ll take half the world with us," Munir reportedly had stated. What has heightened the anger in New Delhi is that this is the first time a top Pakistani official has issued an apparent nuclear threat from US soil.

Munir also threatened to target infrastructure projects India might build on the Indus River, amid the recent conflict and diplomatic standoff over historic water rights treaties.

Referring to India’s decision to suspend the Indus Waters Treaty after the deadly Pahalgam terror attack of last April, he claimed it could lead to famine for 250 million people. "Let them build a dam, and we’ll hit it with ten missiles," he was quoted as saying, adding, "We have no shortage of missiles, al-hamdulillah [praise be to God]."

He also during the speech called India a shiny Mercedes, compared to "dump truck" Pakistan - in reference to military stregnth and impact:

"India is shining, a Mercedes coming on a highway like a Ferrari, but we are a dump truck full of gravel. If the truck hits the car, who is going to be the loser?" he said in a "crude analogy".

The top army chief had further raised eyebrows on the question of military intervention in government affairs: "People say war is too serious to be left to the generals, but politics is also too serious to be left to the politicians," he said at the disapora event.

The Indian government issued a statement condemning the remarks:

India on Monday accused its neighbour Pakistan of "sabre rattling" and "irresponsibility" after media reports on remarks about nuclear threats in South Asia made by Pakistan's army chief while on a visit to the United States.

Revealed: Shots Fired After Japanese Destroyer Breached Chinese Waters

This weekend, Japan's Kyodo news cited high level diplomatic sources who revelaed for the first time a dangerous event between Chinese and Japanese naval vessels which unfolded a year ago. In July 2024, Chinese naval vessels fired at least two warning shots at a Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force (MSDF) destroyer after it unintentionally entered Chinese territorial waters off Zhejiang Province, a coastal region in East China

The destroyer, Suzutsuki, was described as monitoring Chinese military exercises in international waters when the incident occurred. The Japanese government sources seem to be admitting that it was the fault of the Japese vessel, as the explanation given in Kyodo is that the ship's electronic navigation system failed to display territorial boundaries.

The destroy thus 'uknowingly' and inadvertently hcrossed directly into Chinese territorial waters, having come within 12 nautical miles (about 22 kilometers) of China's coast for approximately 20 minutes on July 4.

Kyodo relates based on its sources:

After repeatedly urging the Japanese destroyer to change course, the Chinese vessels fired a warning shot just before the Suzutsuki entered Chinese territorial waters and another after it had crossed into the area, the sources said.

After Beijing logded formal protest over the incurion, Japan is reported to have 'unofficially explained' to Chinese officials that the captain was unware he had breached Chinese waters due to the technical malfunction.

Underscoring how serious an incident it was, Japan's MSDF subsequently dismissed the destroyer's captain due to neglegence, and has kept its internal investigation into the incident a secret.

However, Japanese officials are at the same time deeply uneasey that China's PLA Navy so quickly reverted to use of force in the form of live-fire warning rounds.

The Kyodo report came out on Sunday, and interestingly just a day later, on Monday, there was another major incident involving the Chinese PLA Navy and other regional US ally, The Phillippines.

Dramatic footage emerged showing two Chinese navy vessels colliding while chasing a Philippine patrol boat near Scarborough Shoal in the South China Sea - an area which has emerged as a geopolitical flashpoint between Manila and Beijing.

David Harris Jr asked: “Do you think that it was Barack Obama’s idea to overthrow the American government, or was it Hillary’s in your opinion?”

Giuliani replied: “No, I don’t think so.”

“As far as I can tell from the chronology, this came out of Hillary’s camp, and then they all got behind it big time.”

“Meaning Obama, Biden, Brennan, Clapper.” “Brennan and Clapper, they played a big role, and of course, Comey.”

Giuliani says the Democrats’ Russia Coup had “the earmarks of a CIA kind of conspiracy” — and he’s pointing straight at Langley. Rudy Giuliani says the CIA’s fingerprints are all over the Russia coup.

“A lot of it, a lot of it had the earmarks of a CIA kind of conspiracy.”

“Particularly the part involving Papadopoulos and the things that happened in Europe that were so screwy and they seemed false to start with.”

It was all just so strange to begin with.

“I mean, they were using an Australian ambassador.”

“They were using UK intelligence, they were using Italian intelligence.”

“That had to be directed by somebody out of the CIA.”

“I wonder who that is?”
