All things considered, I would rather be fishing :-)
CAUGHT ON HIDDEN CAMERA: LA Housing Department Financial Officer Admits Witnessing Multiple Instances of Fraud Up To “$10–$20 Million” & “Going To People’s Pockets,” Homeless Developers Committing Forms Of Embezzlement, With Superiors Looking The Other Way To Help Mayor Karen Bass Maintain “Re-Election Funds.” “I have a couple of developers doing really sketchy stuff. My project was with a developer called CRCD — Marcella Gardens. We [LA City] can’t figure out where all the money is going… it’s going to people’s pockets.” “If they [LA Housing Department] were to call out the people [Developers] contacting Karen Bass’s office, she might not get enough money for re-election — or for what she needs done.” “For whatever reason, LAHSA gets allocated a ton of money, but they [LAHSA] don’t really have a whole lot to show for it.” Donald Byers, a Finance Development Officer from the Los Angeles housing programs, admits on hidden camera that millions of taxpayer money disappear inside the city’s low-income housing system. Byers told our undercover journalist he flagged the fraud internally but was ignored. “I’ve reported it… nothing happens.” Accountability is avoided. Despite years-long delays on projects, funding continues to flow even when, by his own admission, officials are failing. Meanwhile, as billions are poured into homelessness programs, the money is “going to people’s pockets.” Despite years-long project delays, funding continues to flow even as, by his own admission, oversight appears to be failing. After raising red flags, Byers says nothing changed and now he claims, “At this point, I’m just covering myself.” Our team reached out to Byers for comment and he threatened to contact lawyers in order to stop our publication. We also reached out to @LAHD___ , @CRCD_SouthLA , & @MayorOfLA for comment. Mayor Karen Bass replied with, “this is total BS.” Thank you, @Savsays for hosting this report. @ctznjusticelg @KarenBassLA @MayorOfLA @GavinNewsom @CAgovernor @GavinNewsom @LAHD___ @CRCD_SouthLA
80% of China's oil imports pass through the Strait of Malacca, controlled by Indonesia. @SecWar just elevated Indonesia to a Major Defense Cooperation Partnership. That puts the United States military in position near both of the world's most critical energy chokepoints. Beijing's energy security now runs through American partnerships.
Bill Clinton: “The Palestinians were offered a state. They refused. A state wasn't their goal. Killing Jews was." This must be shared every single day.

🚨Heavy Handed removal of retiree benefits: A retired LCDR was just banned from all Navy bases and facilities in the Hampton Roads area for accidentally having a personal weapon in his vehicle at the base gate checkpoint. The retired naval officer has a Concealed Carry Permit. He also followed all directions provided to him by base security while voluntarily discussing his CC permit and noting that he had mistakenly had the weapon in his vehicle. Security suggested he turn around and come back without the weapon. He did so gladly and immediately returned back through the same gate (without the weapon of course) while the same security guards offered apologies for the inconvenience. The subsequent ban was an unexpected shock and a grave heavy-handed response to an honest mistake. The JAGs and Commander at Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek have unilaterally removed all retiree benefits (except retiree pay) from an honorable man. He can no longer attend base functions, work a job on the base, use MWR facilities, or the commissary (military grocery store). Based on Secretary @PeteHegseth’s desire to ensure Second Amendment rights are defended by our Institutions, and that those exercising these rights are not unlawfully weaponized against, I pray this ban is quickly reversed.
US smartphone imports from China have collapsed from 90% to 25%. The Foxconn China assembly network, once the undisputed backbone of Apple's hardware empire, is seeing its centrality eroded in real time. This is the clearest data point yet of a forced, systematic derisking of the consumer electronics supply chain. (1/3)🧵
Out of everything we now know about the Ukraine impeachment episode, the key point is that Ciaramella was one of the central operatives in the events leading up to Joe Biden getting the Ukrainian prosecutor fired. That made him the perfect vehicle for advancing the “whistleblower” complaint, precisely because he himself was implicated in the underlying events. In effect, Ciaramella got to cover his own tracks, while his allies and higher ups, including Adam Schiff, got their impeachment. A huge thank you to Andrii for bringing this story to light, at considerable personal cost. For exposing uncomfortable facts, he was sanctioned by the U.S. government on the grounds that he had spread Russian disinformation, when in reality he was exposing anti-Trump hoaxes. If anyone has a line to people in a position to lift those sanctions, whether Marco Rubio or Scott Bessent, whose department oversees them, please make them aware of this grave injustice.
DID YOU KNOW that 1 day after the assassination of Seth Rich - the DNC paid Crowdstrike $98,849.84. 1 month later Seth Rich's friend Sean Lucas, who was a DNC Process Server and served the DNC with an election fraud lawsuit, was found dead - one day later - the DNC paid Crowdstrike $113,645.77. Podesta >> DNC >> Crowdstrike >> Trump's Perfect Call >> Ukraine. see how everything is connected?
