Mueller Reportedly Wants Trump Tower Records Involving Roger Stone

 

Special counsel Robert Mueller has reportedly sought Trump Tower records of any phone calls or visitor logs regarding Roger Stone.

Mueller’s team is investigating what Stone, a longtime Trump confidant, may have known about Wikileaks’ plans to release Democrats’ stolen emails.

But Stone vehemently denies visiting Trump Tower after leaving the Trump campaign in August 2015. He says he spoke to Trump in 2016, but never about Wikileaks.

 

Special counsel Robert Mueller has reportedly asked President Donald Trump’s legal team for visitation and phone records from Trump Tower regarding Roger Stone, the longtime Trump confidant currently under scrutiny in the special counsel’s probe.

 

But Stone, a political operative known for unorthodox tactics, says that investigators will not find anything of significance in their probe.

 

“No visits to Trump Tower from August 2015 until after the election when the President-elect asked me to visit,” said Stone to The Daily Caller News Foundation. He advised Trump’s campaign until Aug. 8, 2015.

 

“Occasional phone calls with Trump in 2016 all initiated by him and certainly never a discussion of Wikileaks whatsoever!”

 

Stone has emerged in recent months as a major focus for Mueller, who is investigating whether Trump associates colluded with the Russian government to influence the 2016 election.

 

CNN reported that as recently as last month, Mueller’s team sought the Trump Tower records from Trump’s lawyers. Mueller has also asked Trump about his contacts with Stone in written questions submitted to the White House.

 

Trump’s team was surprised by the Stone-related request, according to CNN.

 

Mueller is investigating what the 66-year-old Stone may have known of Wikileaks’ plans to release emails stolen from Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta. On July 13, Mueller indicted 12 Russian nationals suspected of operating the online persona Guccifer 2.0 to pass hacked emails to Wikileaks.

 

Wikileaks published the pilfered Podesta documents on Oct. 7, 2016. The group, founded by Julian Assange, published DNC emails allegedly stolen by the same group of Russians on July 22, 2016.

 

Stone’s tweets and comments he made during a speech to Florida Republicans on Aug. 8, 2016 have landed him in Mueller’s crosshairs, though he insists that he had no prior knowledge about the specific timing, content or source of the leaked Podesta records. He has said he did not know that the documents would be related to Podesta.

 

A tweet that Stone sent on Aug. 21, 2016 has led to allegations that he knew of the Podesta plan.

 

Stone wrote that “it will soon [be] the Podesta’s time in the barrel.” In downplaying the tweet, Stone has emphasized that he wrote “the Podesta’s,” a phrasing that he says shows that he was referring to John Podesta and his lobbyist brother Tony.

Blair: ‘I’ll Do Everything I Can to Stop Brexit’

 

Former prime minister and Labour leader Tony Blair has reiterated his commitment to reverse the British people’s vote for Brexit in 2016.

 

“I am 100 percent opposed to Brexit,” declared the Iraq War architect at the Web Summit in Lisbon, Portugal — prompting spontaneous cheers and applause.

 

“Up to the very end I am going to do everything I can to stop it,” he vowed.

 

“I think it is possible to stop it… because it’s not in our economic interest, it’s not in our political interest; I think it weakens Britain, and it weakens Europe,” he added.

 

Blair made the same arguments during the 2016 referendum, but failed to persuade a British public who backed Leave with a majority of well over a million votes — but the globetrotting multi-millionaire clearly believes this answer was not final.

 

Blair has been a prominent voice for a second referendum since the vote to Leave the European Union, joining forces with other ex-politicians such as former Tory prime minister Sir John Major and former Liberal Democrat deputy prime minister Sir Nick Clegg — who has now given up the fight for a lucrative new job in California as Facebook’s global press officer — to lobby against Brexit, and holding closed-door meetings with the EU’s negotiating team.

 

Few EU loyalists in Britain are calling for a simple re-run of the EU referendum, not least because most — including Blair, Major, and Clegg — said they would respect the people’s decision as final either before the vote, after it, or both.

 

Instead, they are attempting to work around their own previous commitments by framing any second referendum as a so-called ‘People’s Vote’ on the terms of Brexit — with the whole thing to be called off if whatever deal Remain-supporting Prime Minister Theresa May and her Remainer-dominated Cabinet are able to secure is rejected, of course.

Swedish psychologist claims feelings of unsafety have to do with darkness and not increased crime

 

Metro – which often accuses others of spreading “fake news”, recently published an article about a new survey on safety in Sweden. This after a weekend filled with shootings and rapes.

 

The survey shows that one in three Swedes feels unsafe. Unfortunately, Metro couldn’t handle these facts and did everything in their power to rationalise the statistics.

 

To back up their claim they let a psychologist, Siri Helle, substantiate their story. She stated that: “Feeling unsafe does not mean that you are unsafe. We live in one of the safest countries in the world, that has never been safer than it is right now.”

 

Apparently, she has completely missed recent reports from the Crime Prevention Council, which show that crimes are increasing in Sweden.

 

According to the National Security Survey (NTU), crimes such as intimidation, harassment, fraud, assault, sexual offences and robbery have increased exponentially in recent years – and the largest increase is within the category of sexual offences.

 

She continued: “Many people feel unsafe outdoors in dark and sparsely populated areas this time of year. Truth is, studies show that women are at greater risk of being subjected to a crime at home… ”

 

This too is fake news. According to NTU, 51 per cent of sexual offences occur in public places and most perpetrators are unknown to the victim. Only 19 per cent of sexual offences occur in a home. A more biased and disparaging article towards Swedes who feel unsafe is hard to find.

 

In addition, Swedish newspaper Expressen earlier claimed that the bright and exceptionally warm summer nights were the reason behind the increased number of rapes this summer.

US’ Project Thor Would to Fire Tungsten Poles at Targets From Outer Space

 

As the threat of space-based weapons - and treaties to limit them - occupies an increasingly large part of defense spending and international competition, nations have sought loopholes in existing treaties to get a leg up on their opponents, including placing kinetic energy weapons in orbit.

 

The US Air Force's "Project Thor" revives a dream weapons manufacturers have had since the dawn of nuclear weapons: how to create damage equivalent to a nuclear bomb without the trouble of nuclear radiation and fallout. Kinetic bombardment, once prohibitively expensive, is now back on the agenda, since it involves no explosives and is not technically barred from being put into orbit by the Outer Space Treaty.

 

The proposal involves placing into orbit a bundle of telephone pole-sized rods made out of tungsten, an extremely durable metal with the highest melting point of any element. The rods could be dropped from orbit at the right moment, accelerating during their thousand-mile plummet to Earth to more than 10 times the speed of sound.

 

It's easy to see why the New York Times called them "tungsten thunderbolts." A more common nickname for the weapon is simply "rods from God." The power of the impact would be similar to the explosive yield of a ground-penetrating nuclear weapon, We Are the Mighty reported Monday. Unlike nukes, the rods from God generate zero fallout.

 

The idea is not fundamentally different from that behind a rail gun: the projectile uses no explosive, relying only on its tremendous speed — remember net force is just mass times acceleration — to annihilate whatever object it strikes. While a rail gun accelerates its projectile using electromagnetic energy, Project Thor relies on the potential energy of Earth's gravity: it just lets go, and down they fall.
