Back in 2016, the Democratic National Committee suspected a breach in its computer systems and hired California-based cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike to investigate the potential hack.

Recently-filed financial disclosures from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her husband Paul Pelosi showed that the couple had invested between $500,000 and $1 million in CrowdStrike, the company that pioneered accusations that Russia had sought to tamper with the US presidential election back in 2016, according to a report by by RealClear Investigations journalist Aaron Mate.

Around 200 have been detained as the Belarusian capital, Minsk and other cities host rallies, during which the opposition plans to hold a “people’s inauguration” of former presidential candidate Svetlana Tikhanovskaya. The action was called in response to the secret inauguration staged by long-time President Alexander Lukashenko for himself earlier this week. Tikhanovskaya won’t be attending the protest, as she fled Belarus for Lithuania after the August 9 election, which the opposition insists was rigged. Thousands marched along Independence Avenue in Minsk, despite security forces thoroughly preparing for the unsanctioned event and urging people to stay at home. Mobile internet speed […]

Moscow prosecutors have approved an indictment against anti-corruption campaigner Alexei Navalny. He is accused of slandering a WWII veteran who spoke in favor of constitutional amendments, which were then passed in a public vote. The former Moscow mayoral candidate, today a leader in the city’s protest movement, called 94-year-old Ignat Artemenko a “traitor” for supporting the amendments to the constitution. These comments “inflicted moral harm” on the former soldier, according to Lyudmila Nefedova, spokesperson for the prosecutor’s office in Moscow. On June 2, Navalny reposted a video that showed a number of Russians encouraging a vote in favor of the package […]

LA Mayor Eric Garcetti has warned that residents hosting large home gatherings can expect their water and power utilities to be cut, a sharp escalation of the city’s strict Covid-19 measures amid a series of recent house parties. Starting on Friday, Garcetti said that the city’s Department of Water and Power (DWP) would shut off service to properties where there are “egregious” violations of local health orders, pointing to house parties in the Hollywood Hills and Calabasas in recent weeks, which he said were held in “flagrant” defiance of the law. “While we have already closed all bars and nightclubs, these […]
Vichy Portland mayor Ted Wheeler decided to attend the protests on Wednesday evening.

Health Editor’s Note: I am not sure what the issue here is all about. What we have known all along is that coronavirus can travel through the air, when someone coughs, sneezes, breaths hard, exhales air from the lungs, sings, talks, etc. and while the virus is in the air it can be inhaled by another human. The viral droplets can also lay on surfaces and from there can be picked up by touching the area with the hands and them bringing the viral laden hands/fingers to the face/mouth/nose where they can gain easy access to the mucous membranes of the […]
Health Editor’s Note: Why does the Trump administration and Trump for that matter, continue to ignore causes of the intense and increasing spread of coronavirus? Lack of physical distancing, masks not required, are two of the methods approved by the current administration. Ask yourself why? It would seem that Trump does not care about the health and well being of the American public. His surgeon general echoes Trump’s insane belief that this coronavirus pandemic, which is again ramping up in the U.S., is of no great concern….politics as usual and damn the pandemic and for that matter damn the American people.
