Flynn and Kislyak spoke several times in December 2016 and January 2017, during the presidential transition. Within days of President Donald Trump’s inauguration, the FBI interviewed Flynn with an intent – as shown by recently published documents – to catch him in a perjury trap. After a description of his call with Kislyak was leaked to the Washington Post, Flynn was accused of misleading the White House about […]

Special Introduction. Mahmoud Abbas, the head of the PLO, Fatah, and PA, announced the suspension of all contacts with Israel, an empty statement since it was not accompanied by the formal diplomatic protocol as required by international laws.

If I know how the PLO operate for sure, they did not think of all the consequences that have to do with transport, electricity, the water supply of materials and consumer good. Formally revoking all agreements with Israel also means the disbanding of the Palestinian Authority, […]

It’s probably no coincidence that three major crypto firms – Coinbase, Genesis Trading and BitGo – have almost simultaneously announced plans to become prime brokers, a kind of fixer when it comes to financing and facilitating trades for institutional investors. This type of vertical integration happens in every business, whether that’s Amazon running the internet or Coinbase trying to own the crypto space.

Authored by Jonathan Turley, A police station in Minneapolis was torched last night as looting and rioting continued in that city. The escalating violence and looting has magnified controversies over how networks are describing the scenes. Earlier, Craig Melvin, an MSNBC host and co-anchor of “Today,” shed some light as to how his network is framing its reporting. Melvin tweeted a “guide” that the images “on the ground” are not to be described as rioting but rather “protests.” That framing has been used on other networks, including some segments where the reporting seems bizarrely out of sync with the scenes in […]

The Times of Israel declared last month that “Roger Stone, a longtime confidant of President Donald Trump who was convicted last year in Robert Mueller’s investigation into ties between Russia and the Trump campaign, was in contact with one or more apparently well-connected Israelis at the height of the 2016 US presidential campaign, one of whom warned Stone that Trump was ‘going to be defeated unless we intervene” and promised “we have critical intell[sic].’”[1] The exchange between Stone and Israeli officials actually appeared in an FBI […]
Russian jets were scrambled to intercept US B-1B Lancer strategic bombers, which approached the country’s airspace over the Black and Baltic Seas, with the high-altitude action captured on video. The American nuclear-capable warplanes heading in the direction of Russian airspace were first tracked by radar, before the Sukhoi Su-27P and Su-30SM were sent to greet them in the skies above neutral Black Sea waters. The jets approached the US bombers at a “safe distance,” with the move resulting in the B-1Bs reversing their course, the Defense Ministry said as it released the footage.

In a new lawsuit filed Thursday, four more women have come forward to accuse Harvey Weinstein of sexual abuse. The accusers’ stories span the years from 1984 to 2013, and all appear to follow a familiar pattern: They met with Weinstein hoping to discuss professional opportunities before Weinstein allegedly trapped and abused them. Weinstein was convicted in February of first-degree criminal sex act for the 2006 assault of Miriam Haleyi, as well as third-degree rape for the assault of former actress Jessica Mann. Before his conviction, Weinstein had denied all allegations of non-consensual sex. A representative for Weinstein did not respond to […]

If the proposed regulation is passed, the Russian economy could lose up to $10 billion in taxes annually, which the crypto industry would otherwise be able to pay if it could operate legally, says a letter by crypto lobbying group […]

Via SchiffGold.com, The economy was booming. The stock market was setting records. Then coronavirus came along and governments shut things down to minimize the pandemic. That led to massive layoffs and a nasty recession. But once states open up, things will spring back to life and the economy will go back to being great again. That’s the mainstream narrative. But it’s not based on reality. In truth, the economy was a Fed-induced bubble before the pandemic. The central bank has managed to reinflate the stock market bubble despite the economic destruction, but it is nothing but a Fed-induced sugar high. And the […]
