AstraZeneca shares rise as UK coronavirus vaccine trial resumes

*   - Shares of AstraZeneca rose 1% to 8,516 pence on Monday after the
British drugmaker received the go-ahead from safety watchdogs over the
weekend to resume clinical trials for its COVID-19 vaccine candidate in the
United Kingdom.

The resumption of the trials for the vaccine, one of the most advanced in
development and regarded by governments and financial markets as one of the
best bets to tackle the health crisis in the months ahead, buoyed stock
markets around the world.

The late-stage trials of the vaccine were suspended last week after an
illness in a study participant, casting doubts on an early rollout and
sending the London-listed company's shares lower.

Global trials of the vaccine had also been paused following the UK
suspension. Brazil has approved restarting the trials and the Serum
Institute of India is awaiting permission from the Drugs Controller General
of India.

Cambridge-based AstraZeneca's shares had risen about 11% this year up to
their Friday close, giving the pharmaceutical giant a market capitalisation
of 111 billion pounds ($142 billion).

[Ugnet] THE WELFARE DID WHAT SLAVERY COULDN'T DO

The Welfare State Did What Slavery Couldn't Do

"The welfare state has done to black Americans what slavery couldn't do….And
that is to destroy the black family."

–Walter E. Williams, the Wall Street Journal

On August 14, the Commission on Social Status of Black Men and Boys Act was
 signed into law. It establishes a nineteen-member panel within
the Commission on Civil Rights to examine social problems that
disproportionately affect black males.

The act is a conscious response to the death of George Floyd, with the
opening section of the bill being subtitled the “George Floyd and Walter
Scott Notification Act.” Floyd died on May 25 after a white police officer
knelt on his neck for several minutes. Walter Scott died on April 4, 2015,
after being shot by a white police officer who had stopped him for a broken
brake light. Both have become symbols of police brutality against black
males. Invoking them indicates that the new commission will focus on the
disparity with which law enforcement and the court system treat black males.

Any spotlight shone on the neglected problem of discrimination against males
deserves applause. Higher education is often used to illustrate how far the
pendulum has swung from several decades ago, when discrimination against
women was rife. A February 1 article in Forbes, “The Collegiate War against
Males
 ,” commented on the recent decline in college
enrollment.

“Most of that fall…is concentrated among men. Between 2015 and 2019…the
number of men on campuses declined by 691,643, almost double the smaller
fall among women, 348,955. In percentage terms, the male decline of 8.34%
was far more than double that among women, 3.18%….In 2015, there were 32%
more women than men, but now the differential is nearly 40%.”

>From family courts
  to the handling of sexual violence
 , from protective
laws   for women
to harsh prison sentencing

  for men, the
government unjustly advantages one gender over the other instead of treating
all individuals equally under the same law.

 
 

The Commission on Social Status of Black Men and Boys is not likely to
increase justice, however; it may well damage the cause it seems to
champion.

There is reason for skepticism. A DC Commission on Black Men and Boys
  was established in 2001 by
Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-DC), who also cochairs the
Congressional Caucus on Black Men and Boys

. Predictably, Norton applauds the new act, because it “mandates government
action to help improve the condition of African-American men and boys.”
There are two takeaways from her comment: government will become more deeply
involved in directing the lives of black males, and two decades of activity
by the first commission has accomplished little.

The government mandate is unfortunate, for several reasons.

Improving the status and safety of anyone is laudable, but a number of
problems exist with the bill’s approach. For one thing, social status refers
to a person's standing in a community. It refers to how highly others in
society value a person. As long as people are nonviolent, the government has
no business dictating what or whom they value. It is akin to mandating what
people must think and feel, which is a matter of social control—not justice.

Moreover, the government can elevate the social status of a group only by
changing their legal status and treatment. If the change makes all people
equal under just law, then it is an improvement. If it elevates one class by
harming the status of another class, then it is discriminatory and unjust on
its face.

There are two basic ways that government can use the law to influence social
status.

refused to report that what else do they refuse to let you know? That is what I 
post and I am raising a glass to myself this morning, for I have used my time 
in the forum gainfully. Annet what is the net value in the time you have spent 
discussing this election?

 

That is the danger of Africans copying western systems, you do no take a moment 
to question why those institutions are in Western countries, you just copy them 
and become suckers for life. United States has two houses, tell me how they

fail Donald J Trump, and I stated that no one can fail Trump without failing 
America. Trump has by passed them and he is listed as the most achieving 
president in American history, when he has not used the houses. There is a 
pandemic in United States, there are massive fires raging all over the place, 
there are storms ragging all over the place, can you tell me one disaster the 
house has helped Americans? Fake media is no longer even reporting about 
storms, there are Americans being caught un prepared for these disasters are 
not reported for the fakes are on the Trump feed. What is the value of these 
houses?  And yet Ugandans are screaming how the Field Marshall is a dictator 
for he shut down the mother of Democracy in Uganda. Well to all degree holders 
and moral protectors of our society congrats for Yoweri Museveni The Kaguta’s 
declared the mother of all Democracy in Uganda open. Raise a glass to your

I am thinking of sponsoring a candidate out of Luwero as well, I might end up 
making a killing from the party, for Uganda politics is a great investment 
these days. You do not need a policy, good Lord I have demanded for them for 
weeks and no one dare walk that path. Even old political party’s like UPC 
stopped to write down what they’re intending to deliver into the country. That 
is an old stupid politics. FDC from the day it was registered has not sent out 
a policy document. Bobbi Winnie has not written a policy document. The coming 
of FDC changed the politics of that country into a rowdy Bayaye running the 
streets and that is today actually the nucleus of Uganda politics. By the way 
when they even discuss the Movement government, they do not go after the bad 
policies, they go after the Movement for it has more Banyankole than Baganda 
ministers. Yes the real issue is that Museveni has become too old to lead. Here 
is another great one, Museveni has a Muhoozi master plan, that is the real 
reason he needs to get out of office. {In all Uganda politics there is no tribe 
that is so politically fragmented as Banyankole, even Obote himself failed to 
put those fragments into an organized region, and you are blaming Museveni for 
uniting all of them into a working force against all Ugandans? How the hell did 
he do that exactly}

 

You sit out here and read all of them and pity them for they never know where 
the head is let alone the firkin tail.

 

For a very long time I have followed Joseph Ochieno, good Lord I have read 
every piece he has posted out there, but these days he also joined the band 
wagon of activism, What happened to UPC the old party these days, did it die or 
it is still out there, it is still a political vehicle or it was disbanded? 
Politics only forms fruits if we are organized, if we have a leader, and if we 
have regulations we follow. Now those regulations and that leadership can never 
be 100% to all of us, but we still remain in that political party spectrum. I 
had a problem with Kathleen Wayne as my party leader, we went into that 
election with my prayer that I wish we lose the election, for we will get the 
time we need to rebuild the party. I even posted that wish in this forum 2 
weeks before the Ontario election. We lost the government from a majority to a 
none party status. That was great, we are out and we are refocusing to come 
back, and we are going to come back and form a majority too, I am not kidding. 
And it can take a year or ten years it does not matter, we just have to do it 
firkin right.

 

Ugandans fail working under organizations, if you put them into UNAA they 
become a menace to society, when you put them into a political party they turn 
against themselves, NRM broke into FDC, UPC today has the one of Jimmy Akena, 
the one of Joseph Ochieno, the one of Olara Otunnu, the one of dead people like 
Milton Obote and Bossa. Should we look at Mengo? Several branches there too, 
can we try on rehabilitating Northern Uganda those are broken into pieces as 
well. Museveni tried to build a new Akii Bua stadium, money was allocated, I 
became interested into the project to following it up, till I threw my hands in 
the air for every Acholi opening his mouth was the angle warning of how bad 
people have bad plans for the stadium. I threw my hands into the firkin air. 
When some of us decided to create a Uganda organization in this city, serious 
to a point of having even a registered Uganda office for the very first time in 
this country, the Charles Kyazze’s ended up completely immigrating out of the 
entire North American continent, with everything that was collected in that 
young organization. A Uganda kid started a travel agency at the corner of Yonge 
and Charles street, very central place, and he became so popular that every 
Kenyan, Ugandan, Rwanda, Tanzanian was buying tickets from this kid. Christmas 
period arrived and every one was buying tickets to go home, that is a very high 
season, he took all their money and closed office one week before Christmas, 
they all did not fly, and the kid’s face diapered off the entire earth. He is 
probably on the International station.

 

In 2020 I do not know a single Uganda organization that has succeeded, not even 
one.

 

Now on most of those failing organizations, there is a block of people that are 
wrong, in Mengo you have Bambejja and Katikiro that is against the kingdom, if 
we only remove those we would have a successful kingdom, in UNAA you have a 
bunch of people that are against the president of the organization those are 
the ones that are failing it, in FDC you have Mugisha Muntonyera and a couple 
of his people that are failing the party, in UPC it is Olara Otunnu and then 
Jimmy Akena if you only remove those the party will grow. Joseph Ochieno has 
just reminded us that in Uganda politics we would do better but the problem is

It all starts with expectations, what are the expectations of Ugandans from 
their country let alone from their government? I am a Canadian citizen and I 
expect my government to protect me from violence. We still sleep in this 
country with only one lock on the main door. In all years I have lived in this 
country I have never slept in a bedroom with a door of the bed room locked. 
Unless I am in a hotel and still that hotel door will be locked but the bed 
room door will have no lock, that is my expectation and I get it. I was driving 
in United States and reached a stop sign, stopped and made a judgement call 
that it was turn to go through, the driver in the opposite street made a 
judgement call that it was his turn to go, we both left the same time and I 
passed him and left, he pulled out a revolver and waved it at me. And to today 
I am sure if I did not have a Canadian plate I would have probably taken a 
bullet. That can never happen in this city and in this country no matter you 
are licensed to own a weapon. You pull it in that manner you lose the license. 
We are allowed to scream at bad drivers, but if you open your door and leave 
your car walk to his car and scream at him that is an assault, and if he calls 
the cops on you there is a charge. 

 

What do Ugandans expect from their government in 2020?

 

When Iddi Amin came to power in 1971 many Ugandans especially UK screamed that 
his government is the worst for it is a military government, as a man that had 
travelled through military governments, that was a civilian government. Amin’s 
government had absolutely nothing to equate with a military government, it was 
a good and fair African government, a couple of bad things here and there, but 
by far Amin’s government was the only greatest government you will ever get in 
this century. If  you question that then you need to live in a military ran 
state to realize the beauty of Amin’s government. The man made it very clear, 
do not interfere with my government, if you want to take me out of power I am 
going to go after you. Every Ugandan that never bothered his government, 
Ugandans actually lived very normal lives. The scarcity of goods that happened 
in Uganda were created by Ugandans that were in Tanzania, never by Iddi Amin.

 

Do you know why all soldiers were dressed with the colors and plate numbers of 
their brigades? You would look at a soldier and by his plate number and the 
color of the belt you would know his brigade. I remember Masindi infantry was 
using BT plate for I knew kids there. So they had a UA for Uganda army, 
followed by a BT which was the brigade identifier, and a serial number like 
096, thus UABT069. That would tell me that this particular Land Rover is from 
Masindi artillery, and I would follow up with the brigade commander to report 
the behavior of that particular Land Rover. The reason they were identified 
that way, was to make sure that every soldier understands that any complaint 
about them, starts with the brigade commander, not your Sargent, not your 
platoon commander, not your barracks commander, the complaint was starting from 
the brigade commander. By the time that commander narrows down to the barracks 
where you serve, you have dropped yourself into a pit latrine already, no 
matter you were a Munubbi kid of a firkin Sheik Kamulegeya. Between 1971 to 
1979 there is not a single Uganda woman that was ever raped in Uganda by a 
soldier. Not even one, and if you know one raise your hand today. There is no 
known case of a Uganda Army soldier that stole money, a watch, a suit, a car or 
any property from a Ugandan. There were people that were in Uganda to just put 
a thumb into every soldier’s nose, and every case charged to a soldier was 
classified as a case done to fail the Field Marshall, no you never wanted that 
accusation on your file. Do you know how they were addressing them if they 
wanted to talk toa soldier? He would yell out a sentence like “Eh nani jina 
lako pumbavu?” You turn around salute him and say your name and very slow, to 
make sure he understands it. Follow up with your sergeant name, your barracks 
and you demand to please know how you can be of value to the officer. Many 
times he mistook you for a different officer.

 

Uganda had no computer system yet finding those plates and identifying those 
soldiers was simple as one instruction from the brigade commander, to bring the 
firkin Land Rover that tried to fail the Field Marshall by behaving badly in 
public.

 

I have been in Uganda and seen the NRA soldiers how do you identify them?  How

f where we come from, 
because of our color and the haters will look for anything to justify their 
hatred.

 

However, as Daniel has clearly shown, such stereotyping should not make us lose 
the unity lens. We should proudly identify ourselves with our ancestors without 
shame but acknowledge the existence of others, focus more on our similarities 
and less on differences. None of us chose to be what we are so it's useless 
imagine that we are special.

 

For instance, here Mulindwa hates me to the core and vows that I was one of the 
master killers in Obote II. Seeing how he swears, one could easily believe that 
he has a full dossier of my criminal past. All because my name starts with an 
"O" and I come from Teso, eastern Uganda. At the same time my fellow Etesot 
Pink believes I am lenient to westerners. Just imagine how badly brought up 
their children are, living in a home where tribalism is the daily prayer 
ushered before every meal. Such children grow up hating people they've not even 
seen, just because the guys who give them pocket money preach it so they have 
to grow and practice hatred if they have to continue getting money.

 

Even during the NRA bush time, my tribe mates used to label me a pro- Museveni 
because of my friendship with westerners. When NRM came to power and embarked 
on a killing spree in northern and eastern Uganda, my people promised to 
revenge in future. Some planned all kinds of atrocities but I would oppose such 
myopic plans and they blamed me for supporting killers arguing that perhaps my 
family was spared. Never mind that to date I have not buried 2 of my brothers 
killed bye NRAs. 

 

Interestingly, the rural folks aren't that tribalistic,  they freely integrate 
and welcome new people. We have to go past tribes in judging wrongs.

 

The worst promoters of tribalism are rulers and some old men highly schooler on 
tribalism, they are  short of ideas so they ride on the tribal tickets. Like 
Daniel noted in his narrative, Tito Okello and Museveni lived in the same camp 
while in exile in Tanzania, Okello's son Oryem now minister of state for 
international relations used to babysit Museveni's son, Muhoozi. What did those 
guys do when they returned to Uganda? They started wars that have actually put 
their tribes against each other. Politics of hatred end to hatred.

 

Tribalism and racism are realities that we live with, and hopefully, we shall 
all see their futility.

Herr Mulindwa,

 

I think you mean something different not " cutting of a region," from all 
services. I am yet to understand what you mean.

 

 During Obote II government, that is when expansion of higher institutions of 
learning occurred in the country. In the West Nile region,  UCC Pakwack and 
Uganda Technical College Ombachi were opened. I had friends and colleagues like 
Jafar Alekwa teaching in Arua so I really don't understand what you mean by "no 
services" mantra.

 

And why would Apac, basically Lango be cut off?

 

I am afraid that one of us is mixing issues. If you were a critical political 
and history analyst, you would see the link of our problems our history right 
from 1896 so that you would not isolate West Nile situation from what happens 
in Uganda now. That is why president Museveni found it easy to launch his bush 
war, he exploited the linkage.

 

They're linked but people like you see the tip of the iceberg and not

Herr Mulindwa,

 

You know that we are all concerned about the terrible situation our country has 
gone through. The successive regimes have meted untold suffering onto Ugandans 
due to intolerance of divergent opinions and policies. From Obote I to present.

What I disagree with you is your tendency to blame one regime, UPC without even 
attempting to trace and discuss the cause.

For instance, while it's true that UPC/KY formed the first government in 1962 
with Kabaka Mutesa as president and Obote as Prime Minister, you don't tell 
Ugandans what happened so that they disagreed which climaxed to the Lubiri 
attack in 1966. Even elders like Prof.Sekamwa, Sibambi, etc shy to inform 
Ugandans. Only Joshua Mayanja Nkangi has recently owned the mistake but the 
rest of you misinform the masses.

I know when I raise the issue of West Nile, you remind me of the Bombo road 
where Museveni was attacking cars. Listen I drove into a middle of an Attack of 
Owinyi Kibul Bus at mile 20 Bombo road, I saw the fragments of brains on  the 
road, I saw people crying and their stomachs ooze out as they pull oxygen in 
for they were open, I saw half hands and I saw limbs of legs left two feet from 
a live human being. Don’t ever dare educate me on what happened on Bombo road 
sir for I lived it. 

 

And that had absolutely nothing to do with a cutting off of a West Nile 
completely off the government services. Today you are reminding me  of the UPC 
Buganda agreement, Peter that agreement had absolutely nothing to do with the 
cutting off of the West Nile. The political history we have had in Uganda has 
absolutely no relevancy for any one in Uganda to decide to cut off a region, a 
full Arua and Apach Districts. 8 whooping constituencies that were abandoned 
since Amin left power until when Museveni came to power.  That was wrong and it 
should have never been done, and should never be allowed again in our country.

 

What you can do this Toronto morning sir, is to educate to what happened in the 
deal of UPC party and Buganda to justify that closure. Peter what happened in 
Lango and Acholi or on Bombo road to justify crucifying an entire population of 
the 8 full constituencies sir?

 

Jog my history sir.

The first sentence of your writing is very disappointing, so to you if the 
government terrorizes a region and the politics of that region stall, it has a 
right to sit in Kampala and anoint any one it wans to represent it in 
parliament. What if Museveni did that, would have you concurred? There was a 
war in West Nile, the responsibility is not of Moses Ali who I even fail 
understanding what he was fighting for, but the responsibility of making 
decisions in West Nile or about West Nile was the government responsibility. 
Your second paragraph shows the exact danger of people inside the government 
failing to understand what its arm or how its arms are functioning out there, 
surely it is very possible that Paul Muwanga never understood the violence that 
was masking the entire Kampala, the man had a 24 hour security service. Here is 
the surprise to you sir, all those administrations you have listed were truly 
in Kampala but neither Lule, Godfrey Binayiisa, the Military Commission nor 
Milton Obote were in charge in Uganda, it was actually one man David Oyite 
Ojoke. Through out all those administrations Oyite made the most brutal 
decisions in that country that covered the region from the day of Amin 
departure to when Museveni came to power.

 

If my recollection is right the region remained closed off throughout, and the 
first car to be driven to West Nile was Chris Opoka’s vehicle that had a first 
view of what exactly was done in West Nile. It was shocking. My dear friend the 
late OJ also had an aerial view of the region and he puked. 

 

Peter there was so much suffering in West Nile, it is a region that we have 
absolutely no hand on knowing how many people were murdered, United Nation has 
a fair knowledge and I use that term sparingly, of how many Acholi and Langi 
that died in the Kony/Museveni war. There is no organization that can tell us 
how many people died in West Nile. A region you now blame on Moses Ali. But

Herr Mulindwa,

 

As you can see, you have helped to expose your own lies. At first you said West 
Nile was cut off without government or representations. Now you say those MPs 
were appointed in Kampala when actually they emerged unopposed in their 
respective constituencies.

 Those are the same lies that DP and UPM peddled all along to justify their 
dismal performance in the 1980 elections, at least CP kind of accepted its 
performance. 

Those people were unopposed and it's not UPC problem that some parties failed 
to nominate candidates. I see same thing with NRM, some opposition parties fail 
to nominate candidates for some elective positions, do you want the EC to 
cancel elections because some parties failed to nominate candidates?

 

If West Nile was shut off from April 11, 1979 to January 29, 1986, was UPC in 
power all that time? 

FYI, from April 11,1979 to Dec 10, 1980, Uganda was under 3 regimes- Prof Yusuf 
Like, Godfrey Binaisa and the Military Commission.

 December 1980 to July 1985, Dr. Milton Obote,UPC

>From July 1985 to January 29, 1976 Mr. Museveni ,NRA/NRM

 

And from February 6, 1981 to January 29, 1986, the NRA bandits manned the 
Kampala-Gulu highway with its ambushes which made access to the north 
impossible and dangerous, many Ugandans lost their lives and property. I 
personally lost relatives and friends, UPC couldn't kill its own supporters if 
you want to blame it on UPC. 

 

Around the same period Moses Ali sponsored by Gaddafi and various military 
groups including the Rescue Fronts were fighting in West Nile killing people, 
how do you blame UPC for all that?

 

My question is, why do you blame UPC for all the problems during that period 
when you know who was in charge, if it isn't deliberate and ignorant lies?
Mr. Mulindwa, misinformation only helps to expose how low you can stoop to try 
to destroy UPC, but sadly, you can't manage, we are getting back and lock you 
up for defamation and crimes you committed in Nakaseke -  Luwero before 
relocating to Canada, yes you know it, be alert, the rule of law is coming.

both Apach and Arua districts. UPC got candidates that were sitting in the Nile

When you take over a government in a country, there is an actual physical thing 
called a government. The institutions that were built to run it. Uganda Post 
Office had several regional headquarters, I do not know if they still have them 
to today. Masaka was one, Mbale, Gulu, Hoima and so on, so those regionals were 
in charge of the smaller Post Offices. NRA walked into Hoima and they wanted to 
access the Hoim Post office, it was a vital building, but it had a lot of cash 
inside.  They targeted the post master where he lives, and broke into his house 
at night. Demanded him to get his keys for they wanted the place open. The poor 
guy agreed and walked with them to the Post office and opened it. They looted 
it to emptiness. Post office had bicycles to be sent out to smaller post 
offices they took them, they took cash from the safe, they took Money Orders 
that were stacked up, and those were many for smaller post offices order them 
from the regional, they took the entire stock. After they cleaned out the 
entire thing, NRA actually turned around and fired an RPG through the wall.

 

Educate me on this one, you have accessed the building, you have taken every 
thing you possibly would take, every single door has been opened, why the hell 
do you fire an RPG through the wall of a building you are going to use when you 
get to power? Has NRA/NRM ever replaced that building? They patched up the hole 
and ran the very same building.

I think we need to impose a tax for Rwandese in uganda. They cant be kn a

in Uganda or they go home. 

 

It is doing things half haphazardly, I went after this Rwandese are Ugandans 
nonsense, and the larger brains, the ones that fit so many books to get a 
degree, argued that if Canada allowed EM to be a Canadian, Rwandese must have a 
right to be Ugandans. Those very same “large” brains fail to realize that there 
is a large part Canada did before it allowed EM in. Canada knows my name they 
know where I live, they know how much I make and they know how much taxes I 
pay. And it is a lot of taxes for ten thousand dollars simply does not make it 
a year. If I go to a banking institution anywhere in this country or in United 
States, and send out money passed 1,000 dollars they need my two pieces of ID, 
and one must be a government issued Identification. 

 

Just how much information do you have on those Rwandese? Squat.

 

Ugandans need to go right back to what Iddi Amin left, rewire all those towns 
and cities with phone lines, install fiber optics, so that a grand Ma in Ndesse 
town that I left with a working phone line, can use that very same phone line 
to sit in Ndesse and log her lap top on. The reason you are able to sit in your 
home and log on is because there is a physical telephone line coming into your 
home, it is not a satellite but most likely a fiber optic, a telephone line or 
a firkin loop. You need one of those but they all go with wiring up every 
single house. Because Grand Ma in Ndesse can log her lap top on, that is how 
the government will use the very same system to collect the data on that 
Rwandese, on you and on all Ugandans. So before you manufacture all those 
Rwandese into Uganda by product, go back to Ndesse and rewire the home I wired 
way back in the 70’s, install a data exchange into Ndesse to feed Grand Ma’s 
house with a firkin loop, then start to allowing all Rwandese, all Congolese 
and all  Indians as Ugandans. Ugandans must stop doing things half haphazardly. 
Did you know that Uganda as a country does not have a single project they build 
to be expanded in later years  !! No they walk in and build some crap from 
the ground then it gets destroyed, there was such an effort to loot telephone 
exchanges after the fall of Uganda in 1979, that I drove to the Ombaci

Every thing had been looted, the question remained, what is the looter going to

I need to expand on the Zirobwe mixed farm I posted this morning, it is not
only to focus on such a farm built under the mixed farming scope, the end
goal must be to invest into the very people that work in that farm. I am
going to use a number of 2,500 employees in this farm, from managerial to
the cleaners I just do not care, all I have at my hand is 2,500 people
employed at this farm. They all get paid twice a month, but based on their
grade of pay, they have services they require to do their jobs. When they go
home every day they screw each other and guess what happens, they create
babies, now Zirobwe needs a maternity, they are religious people thus go to
church and Mosque every weekend, that is a new church and a new Mosque built
in Zirobwe. They live in homes, and those homes need to be built, thus
carpenters and builders, painter, electricians, plumbers and what have you
are required. Their kids go to school, thus a school in Zirobwe. All these
investments create various jobs only to carter to this population. The money
they make out of the farm is redistributed to the secondary employees that
support this population with its services. The Zirobwe city on top tax all
of them.

 

Because the town is developing, you need another class of people, city
managers to run the city, to run the sewage system in Zirobwe for these
people shit, the Dan Bwanika’s that have been planning for Kampala their
entire adult life, will move to plan for Zirobwe. The Barigyes that only
talk about Kampala water and sewage systems will start to talk about Zirobwe
system. The John Kwitonda that talk about the Kampala getting bus services,
will start to talk about Zirobwe bus services, for these people need to
commute from work to home. When you multiply all these farms you have
created into the axis, discussing Uganda issues will end being about
Kampala.

 

I left the town of Kayunga about 40 or so years ago, the last time I visited
that town I was so surprised that it never changed. My entire  life was
about communication, but by the time I left that town, 15 people were able
to talk at one time to the out side of Bugerere, that is via Kampala. So we
had the ability to call Kampala and connect any one out of
Kasawo/Kangulumira/Ndese/Kayunga and 15 people would do that at one time.
Because we built the system preparing it for Data Communication, we had
wired many of the homes and expanding. In fact the last writing we did was
to improve the communication system so that Bbale gets connected and revise
the number of lines from 15 to 20, for we had a problem with specific
customers that had a huge traffic of calls, Kayunga Hospital, Kayunga Police
station, the administration office, the growers factories in
Kayunga/Kasawo/Kangulumira, we had schools that were building such a
traffic. All these organizations were paying their bills and Kayunga was in
number one growth in small post offices, due to the telephone traffic. 

 

The entire system crumbled down, for everyone is using cell phones, and when
you talk to them about  land lines, and wiring the town as the only way to
run Data they ask you what is firkin Data. I cried and swore to never return
to Kayunga for it became what it should never had to become. If we managed
to reach this level of development in the 70’s, can you simply imagine if
Kayunga continued at that speed to today? Yes it all had to go down for Iddi
Amin was such a terrible man and today Peter Simon Okurut wants to walk the
candidate to the firkin bridge for he is the problem.  I firkin shudder
!!

 

You have  lived into this delusion of Kampala this, Kampala that, we now
know who even is the MP of that bridge, why did he leave? For you all
refused to invest into those people, and you invested into Kampala. Kampala
sewage system, Kampala roads, Kampala buses, Kampala electricity supply and
Kampala LDC. At what age will you start to discuss Mucwiini, Moroto,
Katakwi, Ombaci, have you ever written a piece about the problems or
successes of the people in kyishuro Nyamiyanza? And who exactly discusses
them if they are not in UAH? Well if you managed to go for the photograph of
the broken down bridge surely you should have told us another sewage system
they have that has failed too? Oh they just don’t shit? It is all of you
waking up, it is about leaving the Kampala politics and you invest into
these people. 95% of Ugandans are politicians, and do you know what you need
to contest for presidency in Uganda, a deep hate of Museveni. That is it and
Abbey Semuwemba is your best friend, and you must stand and get elected.
Abbey Semuwemba does not need you to be a leftie or an extreme right, let

These actions are not done by foreigners,  these are not Sudanese imported by 
Iddi Amin as The Maleras, these are Ugandans, and it is important to clarify 
that point. They do it to themselves, to their own people, not Museveni but 
Ugandans themselves. That is why I opine that Museveni is not the  problem of 
Uganda the population is the problem. Thus removing him out of office can 
actually make the situation way worse. Vote the man out of power at your own 
peril. Now smart pans out there are going to ask me what will happen if the

I have the answer to that question, firkin get out of Uganda the day Museveni

Jackson Kanywani

After ugly incidents tainted their four-months’ stint in law enforcement, the 
Local Defence Unit men and women were withdrawn from checkpoints and night 
patrols last week, but most Ugandans in the central districts of Kampala and 
Wakiso, who suffered the harshest brunt of LDU brutality, are still scarred by 
episodes of their horrific violence.

Many have harrowing tales to tell. Jackson Kanywani has a tall tale of his own 
experience. Jackson Kanywani, an artiste from the western district of Ntungamo 
district, lost a set of teeth from his lower jaw on May 15 after a ferocious 
LDU attack.

The shaky set of teeth was removed during surgery at Kiruddu hospital, a 
government referral. Kanywani was in Kampala on business. He travelled from 
Ntungamo to the capital city in February to record campaign songs he composed 
for different candidates weighing a run in the 2021 general elections.


His run-in with LDUs came on March 31 at around 11am at a Clock Tower 
roadblock. The LDUs were particularly targeting boda boda riders carrying 
passengers. Since he was riding a boda boda without a passenger, he managed to 
go past the roadblock only to be hit in the face with a blunt object by an LDU 
officer.The Observer listened to two songs recorded at DMS studios in Kampala 
for President Museveni and Minister Rukutana Mwesigwa. He claims the candidates 
had put down deposit payments. Like many Ugandans, the Covid-19-induced 
lockdown restrictions announced in March this year found him in Kampala.

He was rushed to Kiruddu hospital by sympathizers where he was admitted for 
over a month. The Observer looked at his case file lodged at Clock Tower Police 
station and medical results from Nsambya police health centre confirming the 
assault.

Kanywani spends about Shs 80,000 each day on medication. He sold his motorcycle 
and goats back home to pay his medical bills.

The former president of Uganda Musicians Association Sophie Gombya said, “The 
pain of seeing Jackson hold his teeth in his hands is unbearable. I pray he 
gets paid by those that owe him money for his music…”

She pledged to mobilize some financial help for him. But in an interview last 
weekend, the army said it is not under pressure to withdraw or disband the LDU 
personnel currently deployed across the country. Army spokesman Brig Richard 
Karemire said LDUs are not yet out of control to warrant disbandment.

“We are not going to disband LDUs because they are still manageable. There are 
a few bad ones out of the very many good ones,” Karemire said.

He added: “We shall deal with the public feelings [about LDUs] but not in the 
way they would wish. So, you will start with demanding to disband the LDUs 
because of a few cases, then UPDF and police. If we have anarchy, what will you 
say thereafter? We shall not allow falling in any traps based on public 
feelings.”

In 2017, President Museveni ordered the recruitment of LDUs to counter the 
spiraling wave of robberies, kidnaps and assassinations in the Kampala 
Metropolitan Area.

Museveni’s security plan entailed LDUs policing their mother villages with 
police and army support but UPDF has since changed the plan to include 
deployment of LDUs countrywide regardless of their origin.

With the outbreak of Covid-19 in Uganda, LDUs were deployed in March to enforce 
presidential lockdown restrictions meant to slow the spread of the virus. In 
some cases, lives were lost and many injured due to the highhandedness of some 
LDUs.

According to Karemire, at least 14 cases of LDUs assaulting civilians, one 
threatening violence and another demanding property with menace have been

Slaves Are Prohibited to Read and Write by Law

 

Slave masters understood that their social control of the slaves could not be 
based solely on physical coercion. Knowledge was power, and virtually all slave 
codes established in the United States set restrictions making it illegal to 
teach slaves to read or write. The statute below, passed by the state of North 
Carolina in 1830—1831, was fairly typical. 

AN ACT TO PREVENT ALL PERSONS FROM TEACHING SLAVES TO READ OR WRITE, THE USE OF 
FIGURES EXCEPTED
Whereas the teaching of slaves to read and write, has a tendency to excite 
dis-satisfaction in their minds, and to produce insurrection and rebellion, to 
the manifest injury of the citizens of this State: 
Therefore, 
Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of North Carolina, and it is 
hereby enacted by the authority of the same, That any free person, who shall 
hereafter teach, or attempt to teach, any slave within the State to read or 
write, the use of figures excepted, or shall give or sell to such slave or 
slaves any books or pamphlets, shall be liable to indictment in any court of 
record in this State having jurisdiction thereof, and upon conviction, shall, 
at the discretion of the court, if a white man or woman, be fined not less than 
one hundred dollars, nor more than two hundred dollars, or imprisoned; and if a 
free person of color, shall be fined, imprisoned, or whipped, at the discretion 
of the court, not exceeding thirty nine lashes, nor less than twenty lashes. 
II. Be it further enacted, That if any slave shall hereafter teach, or attempt 
to teach, any other slave to read or write, the use of figures excepted, he or 
she may be carried before any justice of the peace, and on conviction thereof, 
shall be sentenced to receive thirty nine lashes on his or her bare back. 
III. Be it further enacted, That the judges of the Superior Courts and the 
justices of the County Courts shall give this act in charge to the grand juries 
of their respective counties.

For a very long time, many slaves were killed for they were found trying to 
learn how to read and write. White kids that came from school and found trying 
to educate children of the slaves on how to read were actually punished. 
Failing to learn to read and write was a top agenda of all slave masters, this 
was so bad that many of the slaves children that got killed were children 
whites actually had raped from those slaves. So the Democrats were killing 
their own children out of the slaves for trying to learn how to read and write. 
They wanted those children to remain ignorant even though half of their blood 
were white. That same system is the very same system that is being ingrained in 
America to today under the watch of Governor Cuomo and firkin Barack Obama. 
They build city schools that have absolutely no standards and produce not a 
single successful child,  for they were built to fail black children. 

 

For the first time United States has a president attacking that very old 
Democrats policy of failing black children by supplying parents a voucher, it 
is called a school of choice. Since all children education is paid by the 
government parents must have a right to send their children to competitive 
schools based on how high is the standard. This president needs the support of 
every black man woman and child, because for the very first time in American 
history,  a black child will have a right to attend a good graded school. When 
you deny a population education as Democrats have done for ion years, you 
create a generation of the George Floyds, a massive list of diseases and a rap 
sheet. EM calls them under achievers, that are forced to vote for Democrats for 
they need the medication to maintain them on earth as much as possible. Petr 
there is a reason why every killed black man has a pile of diseases, and a pile 
of crimes committed, he was programed to be exactly that from firkin birth. We 
have lived with this silliness all our lives and just allowed it to go on 
unchecked until when Donald J trump walked that escalator.

 

It is time you get up and support the Son of a bitch for he is the only light

The decisions that fail African Americans are never done in the White House, 
they are actually done in the municipal and state offices, and yes many of 
these failing African Americans have lived in urban centers ruled by Democrats 
past 50 straight years. Secondly African Americans do not have a right to 
decide their fate, for may are actually un educated. What Democratic party did 
in these cities is to confiscate the educate system so that black children born 
into the Bronx have to fail. I have a whole pile of problems with Donald, but 
the day he embraced Schools of choice I walked with him to the isle, for many 
of us throughout the Obama administration screamed about African Americans 
getting schools of their choice, Obama rejected that idea for it would make 
African Americans smart. Their children go into city schools, and they have no 
option out. Good education in Democrats controlled city like New York is only 
entitled to rich people. Donald is changing that to allow all black families to 
go to the school of their choice. Peter Even during the slavery days, Democrats 
rejected slaves from schools, which they are doing even today in 2020.

 

Peter it is very offensive rather repugnant that you define un educated people 
as a people with a right to define their fate. Take a moment and understand why 
African Americans are failing and trust me it is not due to the Monuments but a 
structural established party system to fail them.

Two authors can play at that game. On the heels of former national security 
advisor John Bolton's already infamous book, "The Room Where it Happened," 
about his time in the Trump administration, where he accuses the president of 
using Ukraine and China to boost his re-election chances, former White House 
press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders has penned her own book, called 
"Speaking for Myself." Because of the current news cycle, she thought it would 
be a perfect time to share an anecdote from her book about Bolton. And it ain't 
pretty.

The following story, she says, proves that Bolton is a man "drunk on power."

Earlier in the trip, the Winfield House had been the site of a nasty fight 
between senior White House officials. To prepare for every foreign trip we had 
daily operations meetings and briefings leading up to the trip itself...

 

She continues:

"The UK state visit had lots of moving parts and one area of concern was that 
there would not be a presidential motorcade to and from most events, because 
the president would predominantly be traveling on Marine One. The UK security 
team was allowing one small staff motorcade and based on their protocol they’d 
designated it for National Security Advisor John Bolton. In one of the prep 
briefings Deputy Chief of Staff Dan Walsh asked Bolton’s team to be sure to 
wait on the senior White House staff vehicles traveling to the Winfield 
House...so they could be part of Bolton’s motorcade and not get stuck in 
traffic. Bolton’s team acknowledged the request. As he did on many of our 
foreign trips, Bolton had a separate agenda and often arrived and departed on a 
different plane because he didn’t want to travel on Air Force One with the 
President and his team. Bolton apparently felt too important to travel with the 
rest of us. It was a running joke in the White House. 

"As we were ready to depart for the Winfield House we loaded onto a small black 
bus...On board were Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, Acting Chief of Staff 
Mick Mulvaney, Senior Advisor Stephen Miller, Senior Advisor Dan Scavino, Walsh 
and me. Based on US protocol, Mnuchin, Mulvaney and Walsh all outranked 
Bolton...Mnuchin, one of the highest ranking officials in government, far 
outranked him. We waited at the hotel but there was no sign of Bolton or his 
motorcade. After a while we gave up and headed to the Winfield House to meet 
the president...

"While en route, UK police directed us to pull to the side of the road because 
someone was coming through...we looked over to see who it was and sure enough 
here came Bolton and his motorcade. We waited and watched as Bolton sped by and 
left us in the dust...The discussion on the bus quickly moved from casual chit 
chat to how arrogant and selfish Bolton could be, not just in this moment but 
on a regular basis. If anyone on the team should have merited a motorcade it 
was Mnuchin, but he was a team player...

"Bolton was a classic case of a senior White House official drunk on power, who 
had forgotten that nobody elected him to anything. Often Bolton acted like he 
was the president, pushing an agenda contrary to President Trump’s...When we 
finally arrived at the Winfield House, Mick Mulvaney, typically laid-back and 
not one to get caught up in titles or seniority, confronted Bolton and 
unleashed a full Irish explosion on him. He lit into him in a way I hadn’t seen 
him do to anyone before...

2020-06-21 Thread Herrn Mulindwa Edward
Father’s Day

Today is Father’s Day and we are celebrating the role that fathers have
played and do play in our lives. I am fortunate in that I can trace my
family, through my father, back to 1335 when my ancestors lived and worked
in Scotland. In those days we were an integral part of the revolt against
English domination and control. Ultimately we lost the struggle for
independence and as a consequence the family moved to Ireland where they
were part of the Protestant Church being established there in competition
with the established Catholic Communion. 

My Great Grandfather was a young Irish Baptist Minister in Belfast and
decided to move to South Af rica in 1877 to take up the position of the
Minister of the Baptist Church in Grahamstown. He married my Great
Grandmother who followed him to the Eastern Cape once he was settled. They
raised a large family and all of their children went on to play a role in
the life of South Africa. 

My Grandfather grew up in many homes in South Africa as his father and
mother moved from Church to Church across the length and breadth of the
country. Not much money but well educated parents and access to local
schools meant that all their children grew up with a clear understanding of
Christianity and what real family life meant in that era. G W Cross was a
character and like his ancestors always played an active and informed role
in the life of his adopted land. He was well known for his love of poetry
and literature and many of the intellectuals of South African society were
friends. At the same time , he was fully aware of and engaged in the
political and economic life of the country.

These traits rubbed off onto his children and my Grandfather Graham Cross,
became a man with a fine legal mind. He married a lady whose family had
migrated from Australia and they also had a large family. He became a
Magistrate and like his father, they were always on the move as he was
promoted and sent to new Districts as a Magistrate, Senior Magistrate and
then finally as Chief Magistrate of South Africa. 

Like his father he was well known as an intellectual and well connected to
the struggles and strife that characterised South Africa at the time. Like
his father he became a friend of the most powerful local political leaders
of that time, including General Smuts who played such a key role in both glo
bal and local politics and events. Even so, he raised all his children with
a strong sense of what is right and wrong and gave them the best education
that he could afford.

My father was one of those children and finished his education at Pretoria
Boys High School where he obtained a Matric and then left school to start
work at the age of 17. He had a photographic memory and would have made a
marvellous Professor of history. As with so many at that time there was
little choice of career and he joined the local Branch of an American oil
company. During the Great Depression he was told that he would have to move
to Rhodesia or face being laid off with little chance of finding alternative
employment.

It was a good move and he rapidly established himself in the City of
Bulawayo in the oil indus try and in the love of his life, which was the
theatre. He met my mother in 1938 and they were married a year later. She
was a widow and had three children which he took on as his own in every way,
giving them the freedom to use their fathers name when they chose to do so.
I was the first of two children born to this union and grew up in a family
of 6, often short of money but always with a deep sense of security and
stability. 

My father, like many, became an alcoholic in the 50’s and it is a testimony
to his strength of character that when he appreciated the seriousness of his
problems, that he simply quit alcohol and from then onwards I cannot
remember him drinking. After smoking for nearly 45 years, when his doctor
said to him that if he did not stop, it would kill him, he simply stopped
smoking and that also was until he died nearly 20 years later.

All his siblings went on to play an important role in their differing
spheres of influence in South Africa and abroad. In the cattle industry we
say that your best measure of a bull’s effectiveness is his progeny. By this
measure the Bulls in the Cross family were virtually all champions.

I met my wife at a Church youth group and we were married in 1963 and have
remained married to each other for over 57 years. We have raised two
children and both are now mature adults, with families of their own and have
done well in their chosen spheres of life. Our grandchildren are all well
rounded young people doing well at school and all very different.
Unfortunately for the first time in history, they are a minority. For the
first time that we can identify, stable, secure families of a man and a
woman in a legal and huma n relationship, are now a minority across the
globe. This will have serious consequences.

Will Joe Biden Become Our First Female President?

But now Joe Biden may do it.

Excuse me, you might ask, isn't Biden a man?

Well, he is for now -- under the Biden gender rules. But he need not be next 
year.

"Transgender equality is the civil rights issue of our time," Biden tweeted on 
Jan. 25.

On his campaign website, he has put in writing what he means by transgender 
equality. This includes how the government will determine what a person's "sex" 
is.

"Biden believes every transgender or non-binary person should have the option 
of changing their gender marker to 'M,' 'F,' or 'X' on government 
identifications, passports, and other documentation," says the website.

"He will support state and federal efforts to allow for this accurate 
representation," it says.

Biden goes on to make clear that he will insist that biological males are 
allowed to play on the girls' basketball teams and shower in the girls' locker 
rooms.

"On his first day in office," says his website, "Biden will reinstate the 
Obama-Biden guidance revoked by the Trump-Pence Administration, which will 
restore transgender students' access to sports, bathrooms, and locker rooms in 
accordance with their gender identity."

Who are the "non-binary" persons Biden mentions? The United Kingdom-based LGBT 
Foundation offers a definition.

"Non-binary," it says, "can be defined as: identifying as either having a 
gender which is in-between or beyond the two categories 'man' and 'woman,' as 
fluctuating between 'man' and 'woman,' or as having no gender, either 
permanently or some of the time."

So, presumably, under Biden's sex identification policy that holds that "every 
transgender or non-binary person should have the option of changing their 
gender marker to 'M,' 'F,' or 'X' on government identifications," a biological 
male who identifies as a woman one year can get government documentation -- 
including a passport -- that indicates he is a woman.

The next year, when he identifies as a man again, he can change his 
documentation to say he is a man.

Six months after that, when he decides he is neither a man nor a woman, he can 
get government documentation that says he is "X."

If he has only a singular transgender transformation -- and is not a non-binary 
person -- all he or she needs to do is change the indication of his or her sex 
on his or her government documentation once.

My anticipation is that Biden -- if he is elected president -- will not 
announce next January, at the time of his inauguration, that he now identifies 
as a woman.

I believe he is permanently male. I do not suspect he will want to identify as 
a female sometime in the future.

But, in Biden's publicly stated view, not only does he have a right to do that, 
but if he does do that, the government would need to formally recognize he is a 
woman by issuing him documents that accord with his claim.

So, could Biden become the first female president?

Under Biden's own understanding of gender and his own proposed policy, it is 
entirely up to him what gender he identifies as after the election.

But if he declares that he identifies as a woman, the government, under Biden's 
policies, would accept that and begin documenting him as a woman.

Would the liberal media accept this? Would they use female pronouns when 
writing about Biden?

Would the Democratic leadership on Capitol Hill accept it? Would they call him 
Madame President? Would they proudly declare that their party had elected the 
first female president?

Would any of them be so bold as to declare that Biden was not a woman but a man?

Last year, the Democrat-controlled House passed the Equality Act. The official 
summary of this act, which has not passed the Senate, says: "This bill 
prohibits discrimination based on sex, sexual orientation, and gender identity 
in a wide variety of areas including public accommodations and facilities, 
education, federal funding, employment, housing, credit, and the jury system."

The text of the bill specifically states: "(with respect to gender identity) an 
individual shall not be denied access to a shared facility, including a 
restroom, a locker room, and a dressing room, that is in accordance with the 
individual's gender identity."

When the Judiciary Committee was considering this bill, Rep. Greg Steube of 
Florida offered an amendment to clarify that "nothing in the Act or any 
amendment made by it may be construed to require a biological female to face 
competition from a biological male in any sporting event."

The committee defeated this amendment.

"Biden," says his website, "will make enactment of the Equality Act during his 
first 100 days as President a top legislative priority."

This week, a Supreme Court opinion written by Justice Neil Gorsuch and

We are posting tonight that as the wheels of justice to all start to roll, a 
court in Minnesota set up a bail of $750,000 against a one Thomas Lee. We do 
not know if that bail was set as cash or surety, but we know that this 
afternoon, a one Thomas Lee has succeeded in satisfying to the court in 
Minnesota the requirements of that bond.  Thus at 4.37pm local time, he has 
been released from jail and  he walked out of the Hennepin County Jail. His 
next appearance is June the 29th.

 

Thomas Lee is one of the four fired Minnesota Police Officers charged in the 
George Floyd’s death.

[Ugnet] ***UNCHECKED*** THE TRUE PLIGHT OF BLACK AMERICANS

The True Plight of Black Americans

While it might not be popular to say in the wake of the recent social
disorder, the true plight of black people has little or nothing to do with
the police or what has been called "systemic racism." Instead, we need to
look at the responsibilities of those running our big cities.

Some of the most dangerous big cities are: St. Louis, Detroit, Baltimore,
Oakland, Chicago, Memphis, Atlanta, Birmingham, Newark, Buffalo and
Philadelphia. The most common characteristic of these cities is that for
decades, all of them have been run by liberal Democrats. Some cities -- such
as Detroit, Buffalo, Newark and Philadelphia -- haven't elected a Republican
mayor for more than a half-century. On top of this, in many of these cities,
blacks are mayors, often they dominate city councils, and they are chiefs of
police and superintendents of schools.

In 1965, there were no blacks in the U.S. Senate, nor were there any black
governors. And only six members of the House of Representatives were black.
As of 2019, there is far greater representation in some areas -- 52 House
members are black. Nine black Americans have served in the Senate, including
Edward W. Brooke of Massachusetts, Carol Moseley Braun and Barack Obama of
Illinois, Tim Scott of South Carolina, Cory Booker of New Jersey, and Kamala
Harris of California. In recent times, there have been three black state
governors. The bottom line is that today's black Americans have significant
political power at all levels of government. Yet, what has that meant for a
large segment of the black population?

Democratic-controlled cities have the poorest-quality public education
despite their large, and growing, school budgets. Consider Baltimore,
Maryland. In 2016, in 13 of Baltimore's 39 high schools, not a single
student scored proficient on the state's math exam. In six other high
schools, only 1% tested proficient in math. Only 15% of Baltimore students
passed the state's English test. That same year in Philadelphia only 19% of
eighth-graders scored proficient in math, and 16% were proficient in
reading. In Detroit, only 4% of its eighth-graders scored proficient in
math, and 7% were proficient in reading. It's the same story of academic
disaster in other cities run by Democrats.

Violent crime and poor education is not the only problem for
Democratic-controlled cities. Because of high crime, poor schools and a less
pleasant environment, cities are losing their economic base and their most
productive people in droves. When World War II ended, the population of
Washington, D.C., was about 800,000; today, it's about 700,000. In 1950,
Baltimore's population was almost 950,000; today, it's around 590,000.
Detroit's 1950 population was close to 1.85 million; today, it's down to
673,000. The population of Camden, New Jersey, in 1950 was nearly 125,000;
today it has fallen to 74,000. St. Louis' 1950 population was more than
856,000; today, it's less than 294,000. A similar story of population
decline can be found in most of our formerly large and prosperous cities. In
some cities, the population decline since 1950 is well over 50%, and that
includes Detroit, St. Louis, Cleveland and Pittsburgh.

Academic liberals, civil rights advocates and others blamed the exodus on
racism -- "white flight" to the suburbs to avoid blacks. But blacks have
been fleeing some cities at higher rates than whites. The five cities whose
suburbs have the fastest-growing black populations are Miami, Dallas,
Washington, Houston and Atlanta. It turns out that blacks, like whites, want
better and safer schools for their kids and don't like to be mugged or have
their property vandalized. And like white people, if they have the means,
black people cannot wait to leave troubled cities.

White liberals and black politicians focus most of their attention on what
the police do, but how relevant is that to the overall tragedy? According to
Statista, this year, 172 whites and 88 blacks have died at the hands of
police. To put police shootings in a bit of perspective, in Chicago alone in
2020 there have been 1,260 shootings and 256 homicides with blacks being the
primary victims. That comes to one shooting victim every three hours and one
homicide victim every 15 hours. Three people in Chicago have been killed by
police. If one is truly concerned about black deaths, shootings by police
should figure way down on one's list -- which is not to excuse bad behavior
by some police officers.

Trump’s Troop Plan Stuns Germany and Rocks Postwar Order 

Angela Cullen and Arne Delfs 

 

(Bloomberg) -- President Donald Trump’s directive to pull 9,500 troops from 
Germany hits home hard for friends of America like Edgar Knobloch, whose 
Bavarian town has been home to U.S. service members for seven decades.

Like Chancellor Angela Merkel, the mayor of Grafenwoehr was caught off guard. 
It’s the latest sign of the U.S.’s deterioration of ties with a loyal ally, one 
that not only hosts most of its troops in Europe but also has seen them fuel 
the local economy.

This medieval town, with a tiny population dwarfed by the size of the American 
military presence, shows just what a shadow the U.S. has cast over Europe after 
World War II and what its retreat symbolizes in the eyes of locals and 
international observers. Another troop cut would signal a further break with a 
legacy of two generations.

Located near the former East German border, Grafenwoehr is a place where 
overseas U.S. military infrastructure and community bonds survived the end of 
the Cold War. Locals celebrate Thanksgiving and enjoy spare ribs. Every year, 
they turn out by the thousands for the German-American Folk Festival to share 
beer, bratwurst and country music with the roughly 11,000 U.S. troops based at 
NATO’s biggest training area in Europe.

 

“They’re completely integrated here,” Knobloch, 55, said in an interview. 
“Restaurants are bilingual. There are mixed marriages, mixed families. You 
often hear from the older members of the community: ‘The Americans liberated 
us.’”

There hasn’t been much nostalgia between Trump and Merkel, who have clashed 
repeatedly over trade and Germany’s slow timetable for meeting the North 
Atlantic Treaty Organization’s defense spending target. Last month, Merkel 
snubbed Trump on his plan to hold an in-person Group of Seven summit  

 in June which he’d like Russian President Vladimir Putin  

 to attend.

 

U.S.-German relations have become “complicated,” German foreign minister Heiko 
Maas said, in the first comment by a government official about the planned 
troop withdrawal. As of Sunday, the government still hadn’t received any 
official communication from the U.S. “Should there be a partial withdrawal of 
U.S. troops, we will take note of it,” Maas told the tabloid Bild am Sonntag.

While Trump has taken aim at Germany’s economic might, Merkel — the 
longest-serving G-7 leader after 15 years in power — has stared him down across 
a broad front, from defending the rules-based global economy to policy disputes 
such as defense spending. A physicist by training, Merkel also contrasted with 
Trump in her science-based approach to reopening Germany from its coronavirus 
lockdown.

 

Lawmakers and government officials in Berlin criticized Trump’s troop decision, 
which would cut U.S. forces in Germany by slightly more than a quarter, as a 
snub.

“These plans demonstrate once again that the Trump administration neglects a 
central element of leadership: the involvement of alliance partners in the 
decision-making process,” Johann Wadephul, deputy head of Merkel’s 
parliamentary caucus, said in an emailed statement.

 

 Read more: The Moment Merkel Realized Trump Changes Everything for Germany

Trump’s decision and the way it was communicated hint at how much Germany’s 
relations have cooled with a U.S. president who has publicly questioned NATO’s 
value.

Green party lawmaker Tobias Lindner evoked Trump’s appearances at NATO summits, 
where has he berated U.S. allies to step up defense spending and called Germany 
“a captive to Russia” for refusing to halt the Nord Stream 2 gas  

 pipeline project.

“Somebody who acts in this way can’t show up in Brussels with the attitude of 
reminding alliance partners of their duties,” Lindner said.

Even so, a U.S. troop reduction may make military sense, since Germany nowadays 
serves mostly as a hub for U.S. operations in other parts of the world such as 
the Middle East and North, said a German government official who asked not to 
be named because the decision hasn’t been publicly announced. Other key U.S. 
installations in Germany include Ramstein Air Base and the Landstuhl Regional 
Medical Center hospital.

 

During the heyday of post-World War II relations, U.S. troops were welcomed in 
West Germany as liberators from the Nazis and a bulwark against a Soviet 
invasion. Older Germans remember when Elvis Presley was stationed as a G.I. in 
1958-60 at Friedberg, north of Frankfurt. To the delight of young

[Ugnet] CHARGING POLICE OFFICERS IS NOT BOILING EGGS

2020-06-05 Thread Herrn Mulindwa Edward
Friends

 

We as society decided to police ourselves, we pick the best from amongst us
and train them to patrol our streets as we sleep. They deter the drunkards
off streets, deranged from our homes, and drug addicts from our residences,
it is quite a tough job. Thus we pay them well, and we equip them well, but
we are very careful on how we charge them if they break the law in the
process of protecting us. In the summer of 2013 a man caused a brawl in a
Toronto street car, police was called in and a Constable pumped about 9
bullets in him. Those bullets were fired in three intervals of three and
three then three. Because only Toronto Police supervisors have Tasers, the
supervisor arrived when the man is already dead, he rushed into the street
car and tasered the already dead man, so that the medical examiner finds it.
We think the plan was to claim that the man fought with police, they tasered
him he kept on coming then they had to shoot him. What the officer and the
supervisor did not know was that the particular street car had a camera and
recorded everything. I bring this issue to illustrate how tough it is to
convict police officers. We love and defend our police officers and they are
among the best paid in the Western hemisphere, but we thumb them as soon as
we see a bad Apple. You have no clue how fast. This was a bad cop and a bad
supervisor, so he was arrested and charged.

 

Because Const. James Forcillo was a Police Officer we did not charge him for
the first three bullets he fired, we considered that a shooting done in the
process of doing his job, no matter how he made that decision. The second
phase that he fired when the kid is already down is what we charged him with
a second degree murder charge, but we accompanied it with an attempted
murder charge to the third phase of bullets. When the judicial wheel stopped
rolling he was found not guilty of second degree but he was found guilty of
attempted murder. James was sentenced to six years, five months and 29 days
after his appeal was rejected. This past January he was granted a full
parole with instructions to never contact the family of the man and to never
own a gun in his entire life.

 

The officer that allegedly murdered George Floyd has ben charged with murder
in the second degree, and many out there are exited for it is the best they
can get out of this anger. They wish he was charged with murder in the first
degree. Edward Pojim  requested for a firing squad. Then I go back and
realize that United States laws in this kind of cases are actually written
by the states than the Federal Government. The state of Minnesota has been
ran by Democrats for about 50 years, during that time they have become the
Dr Kiiza Besigye that wrote the laws to decapitate UPC the very laws
decapitating him today. In Minnesota to charge some one of murder in the
second degree, you are stating that you know he committed the murder, but
you are alleging that he intended to do that act. So what you are proving is
not murder, but intent. That puts this case into a very tough position for
there is nothing ever tough to prove than intent, because that is to prove
what he was thinking. You either have to own a witness that talked to him a
day or two before, and he specifically told him that the is going to murder
that man, you need a witness he specifically told that one of those days I
am going to go after him and murder him. Or you need the officer to stand up
in court and agree that he woke up that morning with intention to track
Floyd and murder him. You need to show that he went both way side, stalked
Floyd for days until when he got a chance to kill him, it is intent you are
proving in this case.

 

With that back ground, I see the defense requesting for a moving of that
case out of the twin city for the city is too bias for a fair trial, there
is a secondary danger into that for outside the twin cities, Minnesota does
not have too many blacks, thus any smaller location it will be moved to you
are going to have a jury of mostly white people charging a white police
officer. And they are making a decision on a very serious charge based on
understanding what the officer was thinking. Anger is good and this
particular anger is very justified, but anger must never be used in deciding
what to charge a police officer. The higher case to choose to charge, the
tougher it becomes to prove in a court room.

 

As a critical thinker, I worry about that single high end charge.  But again
I am not a lawyer let alone try to play one.

[Ugnet] DEMOCRATS IN NEW YORK HAND DELIVERED OLD FOLKS TO COVID-19

2020-04-22 Thread Herrn Mulindwa Edward
Friends

 

As I continue to raise the manner at which poor black folks were targeted in 
New York, there is a policy I need to raise tonight. COVID-19 is a virus that 
has sent all of us back to school, we all do not know her characteristics, and 
they are not even stable if we were to know them. When we take a stand that the 
virus does not kill children, we get a five year old in UK dead, that stand 
feebles, when we take a stand that the virus does not kill youths, they start 
to drop like flies. Following COVIN-19 is a learning process, and we all learn 
together. But within that learning range, these are factors that have so far 
been very consistent, the virus attacks people with under laying circumstances, 
and it targets the old population. On those two classes COVIN-19 has been very 
consistent from get go to day. As the virus plowed through China, Italy, Spain 
and lately United Kingdom, we have seen that the older you are, the more 
venerable you are to the virus. Governments after Governments all over the 
place have started the COVID-19 battle by bolting senior citizen homes and 
residencies. In Ontario we have been beaten very hard in homes, and we have 
lost a very high number of old people.

 

Because New York has a whole lot of black senior citizens, Democrats targeted 
them and set them up to the virus. As the State was preparing for the virus, it 
wanted to create hospital spaces, thus sick people that are not in ICU were 
encouraged to return home and continue with the home treatment. Thus those 
residing in Nursing homes were driven back to the homes. As all this movement 
was happening, the virus attacked the city and the population started to get 
infected. Since the virus was in the hospital, the patients being moved from 
the hospitals went with it to the Nursing  homes. The residences and residents 
rejected the patients from going in, for there was a fear for the other health 
old people. 

 

Governor Andrew Cuomo directed all homes in the state to allow the infected 
people back to the Nursing homes. On March 25th, late as March 25th,  the 
governor passed “The COVID-19 Readmission policy,  that was contained in a 
Health Department directive, and I quote, “No resident shall be denied 
readmission or admission to the [nursing home] solely based on a confirmed or 
suspected diagnosis of COVID-19,” So if you are in the hospital and tested 
positive for the virus, the ambulance takes you back to your Nursing home and 
you will be followed from there. If you were living in the Nursing home, and 
tested positive of COVID-19 you were not to be removed but treated from within. 
Democrats made the Nursing homes the open Southern Boarder against old black 
folks. That policy made senior citizens homes in New York the single largest 
COVID-19 epic center. The old folks coming from hospitals when they’re 
infected, now infected the old people in the homes, and the caretakers as well. 
What has happened to the old black fools in New York is a genocide against the 
blacks, directly created by the Democrats running the state and the city.

 

When you look at the total deaths in the state of New York, more than half of 
the dead in the entire state are from the in-suburbs of New York city nursing 
homes, It is Long Island, it is New York city and it is Westchester. Raise up 
and raise the genocide of blacks in New York, for it is happening and about 
now. When you are raising the genocide in New York, it is important you raise 
the name of Howard Zucker, that wrote the tragic policy, and at one time worked 
on the Obama campaign.

 

There is a reason infections are going down in New York,  the military directly 
started to run the firkin show.

[Ugnet] STATE SEPT. CABLES WARNED OF SAFETY ISSUES AT WUHAN LAB

2020-04-16 Thread Herrn Mulindwa Edward

State Department cables warned of safety issues at Wuhan lab studying bat 
coronaviruses


 

Josh Rogin

Two years before the novel coronavirus pandemic upended the world, U.S. Embassy 
officials visited a Chinese research facility in the city of Wuhan several 
times and sent two official warnings back to Washington about inadequate safety 
at the lab, which was conducting risky studies on coronaviruses from bats.

The cables have fueled discussions inside the U.S. government about whether 
this or another Wuhan lab was the source of the virus — even though conclusive 
proof has yet to emerge.

In January 2018, the U.S. Embassy in Beijing took the unusual step of 
repeatedly sending U.S. science diplomats to the Wuhan Institute of Virology 
(WIV), which had in 2015 become China’s first laboratory to achieve the highest 
level of international bioresearch safety (known as BSL-4).

WIV issued a news release in English about the last of these visits, which 
occurred on March 27, 2018. The U.S. delegation was led by Jamison Fouss, the 
consul general in Wuhan, and Rick Switzer, the embassy’s counselor of 
environment, science, technology and health. Last week, WIV erased that 
statement from its website, though it remains archived on the Internet.

What the U.S. officials learned during their visits concerned them so much that 
they dispatched two diplomatic cables categorized as Sensitive But Unclassified 
back to Washington.

The cables warned about safety and management weaknesses at the WIV lab and 
proposed more attention and help. The first cable, which I obtained, also warns 
that the lab’s work on bat coronaviruses and their potential human transmission 
represented a risk of a new SARS-like pandemic.

“During interactions with scientists at the WIV laboratory, they noted the new 
lab has a serious shortage of appropriately trained technicians and 
investigators needed to safely operate this high-containment laboratory,” 
states the Jan. 19, 2018, cable, which was drafted by two officials from the 
embassy’s environment, science and health sections who met with the WIV 
scientists. (The State Department declined to comment on this and other details 
of the story.)

The Chinese researchers at WIV were receiving assistance from the Galveston 
National Laboratory at the University of Texas Medical Branch and other U.S. 
organizations, but the Chinese requested additional help. The cables argued 
that the United States should give the Wuhan lab further support, mainly 
because its research on bat coronaviruses was important but also dangerous.

As the cable noted, the U.S. visitors met with Shi Zhengli, the head of the 
research project, who had been publishing studies related to bat coronaviruses 
for many years. In November 2017, just before the U.S. officials’ visit, Shi’s 
team had published research showing that horseshoe bats they had collected from 
a cave in Yunnan province were very likely from the same bat population that 
spawned the SARS coronavirus in 2003.

“Most importantly,” the cable states, “the researchers also showed that various 
SARS-like coronaviruses can interact with ACE2, the human receptor identified 
for SARS-coronavirus. This finding strongly suggests that SARS-like 
coronaviruses from bats can be transmitted to humans to cause SARS-like 
diseases. From a public health perspective, this makes the continued 
surveillance of SARS-like coronaviruses in bats and study of the animal-human 
interface critical to future emerging coronavirus outbreak prediction and 
prevention.” 

The research was designed to prevent the next SARS-like pandemic by 
anticipating how it might emerge. But even in 2015, other scientists questioned 
whether Shi’s team was taking unnecessary risks. In October 2014, the U.S. 
government had imposed a moratorium on funding of any research that makes a 
virus more deadly or contagious, known as “gain-of-function” experiments.

The coronavirus pandemic has led to temporary closures of educational 
institutions, the cancellation or postponement of major events, and poses a 
significant threat to businesses and economies around the world. At this time 
of need, many famous people are stepping up to help those affected by making 
donations or showing acts of kindness. Click through to take a look at some 
well-known people helping out during the pandemic.

As many have pointed out, there is no evidence that the virus now plaguing the 
world was engineered; scientists largely agree it came from animals. But that 
is not the same as saying it didn’t come from the lab, which spent years 
testing bat coronaviruses in animals, said Xiao Qiang, a research scientist at 
the School of Information at the University of California at Berkeley.

“The cable tells us that there have long been concerns about the possibility of 
the threat to public health that came from this lab’s research, if it was not 
being adequately conducted and protected,” he said.

March 27, 2020

Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden is battling a serious 
allegation 

  of sexual assault, one his accuser says she brought to the campaigns of Sens. 
Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., and Kamala Harris, D-Calif., before they left the 
2020 race. According to Tara Reade, while she worked as a staff assistant for 
Biden in 1993, the senator “began kissing her without her permission, pushed 
her against a wall, reached under her skirt, and penetrated her with his 
fingers,” as Robby Soave wrote 

  in Reason.

According to journalist Katie Halper, who recently interviewed 

  Reade, the woman’s brother and close friend “both recall Tara telling them 
about the incident at the time.” Compare that with Christine Blasey Ford’s 
reputation-destroying allegation against Justice Brett Kavanaugh, which has 
been denied 

  by all alleged witnesses.

The Intercept reported 
  that Reade 
attempted to bring her story to the Time’s Up Legal Defense Fund earlier this 
year, but the group declined to assist with the case, citing its nonprofit 
status. Per The Intercept, the public relations firm retained by Time’s Up is 
SKDKnickerboker; the group’s managing director, Anita Dunn, is the top advisor 
to Biden’s campaign.

Reade sat for an extensive interview 
  with The Hill’s 
Saagar Enjeti and Krystal Ball on Thursday morning, where she responded to 
questions about why she stayed silent for nearly three decades and whether 
political motivations influenced her decision to speak out in 2020. In the 
interview, Reade said that she contacted the Warren and Harris campaigns hoping 
to share her story, but neither seriously followed up. Team Warren, Reade said, 
directed her to contact her local representative.

The Federalist asked both senators’ offices on Thursday to confirm whether 
either was made aware of the allegations on the campaign trail, but did not 
receive a response by press time.

Because Reade’s story is compelling, and drawing so little attention from the 
corporate media, it’s worth digesting her words in full. To be clear, this is a 
30-year-old allegation with no corroborating witnesses, so there’s no way for 
us to conclusively determine the veracity of Reade’s story. But now that she’s 
spoken out, the ball is in voters’ court to consider whether she’s telling the 
truth, and what that means for Biden’s qualifications as a presidential hopeful.

As Soave noted, Biden advocates frequently on behalf of sexual assault victims, 
and has emphatically 
  defended 
women who stay silent before ultimately coming forward with allegations. “For a 
woman to come forward in the glaring lights of focus, nationally, you’ve got to 
start off with the presumption that at least the essence of what she’s talking 
about is real,” Biden said during the Kavanaugh confirmation battle.

The account of Biden’s alleged sexual assault, as relayed by Reade to Halper, 
is transcribed below. The news cycle is rightfully crowded with pandemic 
information right now, as it absolutely should be. But the sad reality is that 
Biden, who has a history of allegations of inappropriate touching, would be 
battling heightened media pressure to respond to Reade if he weren’t a 
Democratic frontrunner. That doesn’t make her story any less worth our 
consideration.

In her interview with Halper, Reade began by remembering the alleged 1993 
incident started when a boss called her into her office.

[She] called me in and said, ‘I want you to take this to Joe. He wants it. He 
wants you to bring it, hurry.’ And I said, ‘Okay,’ and it was a gym bag. She 
said ‘take the gym bag.’ She called it athletic bag. And she said he was down 
towards the Capitol and he’ll meet you. So I went down, and I was heading down 
towards there. And he was at first talking to someone, I could see him at a 
different distance and then they went away. And then we were in like this side 
area. And he just said, ‘Hey, come here, Tara.’ And then I handed him the thing 
and he greeted me, he remembered my name.

And then we were alone, and it was the strangest thing. There was no exchange 
really. He just had me up against the wall. And I was wearing a skirt and, you 
know, business skirt,

The ugly history of Democratic suppression of blacks


Bill Federer recounts constant attempts to subjugate, oppress African-Americans


By Bill Federer   

 



In 1857, the Supreme Court, with seven of the nine justices being Democrat, 
decided that Dred Scott was not a citizen, but property. Chief Justice Roger 
Taney, appointed by Democrat President Andrew Jackson, referenced in his 
decision that slaves were "so far inferior ... that the Negro might justly and 
lawfully be reduced to slavery for their own benefit."

After the Civil War, Republicans pushed through the 13th Amendment, adopted 
Dec. 6, 1865, officially abolishing slavery in America. Once Southern Democrats 
were forced to free their slaves, they effectively attempted to re-enslave them 
by passing "black codes" and "Jim Crow" laws, which required former slaves to 
be "apprenticed" to "employers" and punished those who left.

On Nov. 22, 1865, Republicans denounced Mississippi's Democrat legislature for 
enacting "black codes," which institutionalized racial discrimination, even 
stating: "No freedman, Negro, or mulatto shall carry or keep firearms or 
ammunition."

On Feb. 5, 1866, Republican Rep. Thaddeus Stevens introduced legislation to 
give former slaves "40 acres and a mule," but Democrats opposed it, led by 
President Andrew Johnson. On April 9, 1866, Republicans in Congress overrode 
President Johnson's veto and passed the Civil Rights Act of 1866, conferring 
rights of citizenship on freed slaves.

To force Southern states to extend state citizenship rights to former slaves, 
Republicans in the U.S. House passed the 14th Amendment, May 10, 1866, as did 
the Senate, June 8, 1866. One hundred percent of Democrats voted against it.

The 14th Amendment was adopted by the states on July 28, 1868.

Republican Rep. John Farnsworth of Illinois stated, March 31, 1871: "The reason 
for the adoption (of the 14th Amendment) ... was because of ... discriminating 
... legislation of those states ... by which they were punishing one class of 
men under different laws from another class."

Along with "Jim Crow" laws, Southern Democrats attempted to keep former slaves 
from voting. On Jan. 8, 1867, Republicans granted voting rights to former 
slaves in the District of Columbia by overriding President Andrew Johnson's 
veto. On July 19, 1867, Republicans passed more legislation protecting voting 
rights of all freed slaves after overriding again President Andrew Johnson's 
veto. On March 30, 1868, Republicans began impeachment proceedings of President 
Andrew Johnson.

On Sept. 12, 1868, Democrats in Georgia's Senate expelled civil rights activist 
Tunis Campbell and 24 other Republican African-Americans, who would later be 
reinstated by a Republican Congress. On Oct. 22, 1868, while campaigning for 
re-election, Republican Rep. James Hinds was assassinated by Democrats who had 
organized vigilante groups.

The 15th Amendment, granting the right to vote to all men regardless of race, 
was passed Feb. 3, 1870, overcoming 97 percent Democrat opposition. Once 
Southern Democrats could no longer keep former slaves from voting, they 
attempted to intimidate them through KKK-type vigilante activities and 
lynchings.

Republican President U.S. Grant signed the Enforcement Act, May 31, 1870, which 
imposed stiff penalties for depriving any American of their civil rights. The 
Republican Congress, June 22, 1870, created the U.S. Department of Justice to 
safeguard civil rights against Democrats in the South. The Republican Congress 
passed another Enforcement Act, Feb. 28, 1871, which provided federal 
protection for black voters.

The Republican Congress enacted the Ku Klux Klan Act, April 20, 1871, outlawing 
Democrat-affiliated groups which oppressed African-Americans. On October 10, 
1871, African-American Republican civil rights leader Octavius Catto was 
murdered by a Democratic Party operative, after repeated threats by 
Philadelphia Democrats against black voting. Republican President Ulysses S. 
Grant deployed U.S. troops on October 18, 1871, to combat violence against 
African-Americans.

Republican President Theodore Roosevelt stated Dec. 3, 1906: "White men are 
lynched, but the crime is peculiarly frequent in respect to black men. ... 
Governor Candler, of Georgia, stated ... 'I can say of a verity that I have, 
within the last month, saved the lives of half a dozen innocent Negroes who 
were pursued by the mob, and brought them to trial in a court of law in which 
they were acquitted.' As Bishop Galloway, of Mississippi, has finely said: 'The 
mob lynches a Negro charged with rape will in a little while lynch a white man 
suspected of crime. Every Christian patriot in America needs to lift up his 
voice in loud and eternal protest against the mob spirit that is threatening 
the integrity of this Republic. ...'"

Republican President Theodore Roosevelt continued: "There is but one safe rule

As this thread continues, those of you reading it need to understand the  
Uganda the WBKs left us, and that Uganda is the Uganda of 1970. Look closely at 
the discussion about that country, it holds a huge hole between 1962 and 1970, 
why no one discusses it? What exactly happened in Uganda after we got 
independence? For some very unknown reason, when Uganda history is discussed we 
talk about gaining independence, but as soon as that Kololo function ended it 
seems Uganda got off earth, and then it resurrected in 1979. And that is 
because since 1979 we have remained in the very same government to today.

 

WBK wrote all about Uganda and what it had, a system that was working, taxes 
collected and the population responsible, so examine that Uganda by 
understanding what we had in 1970. And that is a full 8 years after 
independence, an independence we got with a fully functioning country. By 1970 
Uganda was actually worse than in 1962, we got independence where a certain 
class of Ugandans and their children, got entitled to the national cake, and 
the rest of the country abandoned by our fellow Ugandans. Every national cake 
was nationalized to be streamed to the UPC faithful’s and their children. 

 

Until 1970, it was illegal for a Uganda child to speak Luganda at school, many 
were actually whacked by Uganda teachers for they spoke a Uganda local 
language. In 1970 we had only one national television station, UTV which was 
broadcasting only between 6pm to 11 pm and in only black and white. We had one 
radio station Radio Uganda which was opened only between 6am and closed at 
11pm, we had only one national paper called The Uganda Argus, Luganda news was 
read once at 8pm for 15 minutes,  the entire economy was controlled by Indians, 
to a point that it was illegal for a Ugandan to go to Nairobi and buy a safety 
pin, you needed to get it from a Bandaranaike. And many other services that 
were only controlled by the government. Uganda was still a colony of foreigners 
only that our fellow Ugandans, UPC members, were running it for the foreigners.

 

The current Uganda  you see today, has managed to even survive through the 
Museveni time for it was opened up by Iddi Amin, in fact if WBK decides to tell 
the truth, Uganda got independence in 1971 than in 1962. We started to be 
allowed to speak Luganda on Uganda schools under Amin, Swahili to come on Radio 
Uganda under Amin, we were a true colony of the British until 1971. The lives 
we had in 1970 is exactly the life that the WBKs want us back into. Coffee was 
major foreign exchange earner in Uganda, don’t you wonder that all of it was 
grown only by Ugandans, but only bought by Indians? So Ugandans were never 
allowed to buy Coffee and yet the Indians never grew it. 

 

But this is what is so interesting, instead of forcing people to pay graduated 
poll tax, why didn’t the WBKs deduct the tax off the coffee sales? Why were we 
not going to an Indian store, to sell the coffee, then the Indian keeps the tax 
percentage? For at that time you knew exactly what you had earned, why were 
they deciding it based only on the coffee trees you have in the plantation? 
Because the WBKs and Indians never invested into the system to be able to tally 
that money off the sales. 

 

Until 1970 we were mining copper out of Kilembe, send it to Jinja copper smelt 
industry, which was owned by Indians, they clean it up to 85% purity, then send 
it to UK to be purified to 90%, for that is the best you can purify it, then 
the UK turn around to sell it to us as a British copper in finished products. 
They were only cleaning it to the next 5% to own it, yet no one cared. That is 
1970. If you get a moment to carry this discussion with WBK ask him one 
question, when we got independence in 1962 what did we achieve by 1970. What 
new industry did Ugandans build, a new road, a new hospital, a new 
infrastructure, what did Uganda actually build between the independence and the 
incoming of Iddi Amin? I can tell you what Amin did between 1971 and 1979. What 
did we get in the years after independence? What did the WBKs do with all the 
money they got out of coffee, cotton, copper, and a whole pile of water running 
in the Nile? By the way we got Nile Perch before Iddi Amin came to power, I 
give him that but that is it.

This discussion reminds me to ask you another question, Uganda receives 
millions of dollars in money sent by Ugandans in diaspora. That money is cashed 
in at a certain computerized location, so when I send money to Jaja Muwanga in 
Bweyogerere, one must report to a computer terminal to clear those funds. Why 
no one has ever targeted that computerized money exit point, and tax it? Do no 
take too much, but let us say a 2% or a 5% charge. What is the real damage that 
can be done on those transactions? Every country I have lived in has banks that 
charge a bank fee, and I have never seen anyone complaining about those 
charges, by the way they raise them almost every year. Why are these 
transactions going into a country tax free? 

 

And it is very interesting that the WBKs of today, defend poll tax, a taxation 
that was so unfair, to be levied on our parents for they own a coffee tree 
which we could never guarantee how much it would produce. A war against poll 
tax that I fought for years literary, yet the very same WBKs will never 
question why Uganda offers such freebies as money transfers. Wake up people, 
the soup is getting cold !!

How much time did Ugandans torch in arguing the value of dual citizenship 
again? I was supposed to burn my time to discuss it for I came from Uganda. 
Okay now based on the level this thread has reached, given what WBK posted 
yesterday, what is the value of me holding a Uganda passport? Why did that 
conversation take almost two or three years of discussing, when it was an empty 
discussion? No we do not hate the country, we look at the threads and just 
refuse to be a part of stupid discussions. We allow them to go by. And what is 
worse? Dr Munini Mulera was the flag bearer of “Ugandans in diaspora have every 
right to dual citizenship”. 

 

Personally I support Uganda government throwing a tax on all of us when we fly 
home, you want the country to have good roads, and good hospitals cough up the 
money to go in for you love the country. And pay good at the port of entry, I 
show my Canadian passport at entry you charge me $500 American per entry. I 
throw you my credit card you charge it, then you hand me a bottle of Uganda

Bitter tales from the bushes of Luweero Triangle

Wednesday January 30 2013



The skulls at various war memorial centres. Photo by Racheal Mabala.  

By Frederic Musisi

Paul Lubwama loses his cool whenever one mentions the January 26 National
Resistance Movement celebrations, which were postponed to today. However,
unlike some people whose grouse against the celebrations revolves around
wastage of resources, Lubwama’s reasons and concerns are inundated with
gloom, grief and bitter memories of the war. 

He rewinds to the events in the 1980s that he never thought would claim all
his six family members. A portrait that was taken on Christmas Eve of 1979
is the only remaining memory of them.

He adds that with the escalation of rebel activities in presentday Luweero
and Wakiso Districts, things started taking another shape on both sides. 

Each group—the government troops and the rebels—had a specific character and
means of persuasion to win over the local population and those who refused
to take sides were viewed as enemies and were threatened, which led to the
killing of many “innocent” people who wanted an ordinary life but walked a
middle road.

“Day time was always for the government troops, while rebels always advanced
in the night. However, as a tactic of war and as days passed, rebels began
camouflaging in government army uniforms, stormed villages and acted anyway
they desired to tarnish the government’s image,” Lubwama narrates.

On the night of August 10, 1984, a group of men dressed as government
soldiers and speaking in Kiswahili raided their home in Wabusaana village
and took away his father, whom they asked questions he never understood
because he did not speak the language.

In the process, his mother and five siblings escaped into the nearby shrubs,
leaving behind Lubwama, who was then 13, and had been a recruit of the
rebels as a spy on Obote’s men. He associated with Obote’s soldiers during
the day.

Little did he know that while he was away, “Obote’s men” had made a stopover
at his home and had discussed some matters at length with his father,
according to his elder brother, who died later in the war. 

But according to Lubwama, while the government troops had earlier visited
his home, they could not make a return at night because it was not their
practice, which leaves a possibility that his father might have been killed
by the same rebels he worked for.

Luweero Triangle, located to the north of Kampala, was where Yoweri Museveni
led the National Resistance Army, to the bush in 1981, following his defeat
in the 1980 elections, to fight “bad governance” until 1986, when he assumed
power. 

More still, Luweero Triangle is commonly remembered for the brutal killings,
particularly of civilians during the war, which are mostly blamed on Obote’s
government. But, little from this war has been chronicled to give a proper
account of the killings that stretched across Kiboga, Nakaseke, Nakasongola,
Mubende, Mityana and Wakiso. What is clear though, greater Luweero remains
in a state of poverty, with unemployed youth, the sons and daughters of
fighters and heroes whose skulls are being eaten away by termites in
memorial graves dug by President Museveni’s government after he took over
power.

Those who survived the war by what they call the “grace of God”, the five
years remain an unforgettable and unforgiveable period.

Who is accountable?
This is the big question whose answer you will not get from either party in
the conflict. The rebels now the government in power, blame the Uganda
Peoples Congress (UPC), who were the government then, and are prompt on
reminding the population in those areas about what Obote’s men did to them.

UPC, on the other hand, has also never stopped calling for an investigation
into what happened in Luweero and who was responsible. Yet many who
witnessed the events have since decided to keep quiet, some are patiently
awaiting justice for the looting, mysterious and brutal killings of
civilians, disappearance of many people, use of child soldiers—most of whom
died, the list is endless.

Rebel invasions versus government troops atrocities
John Kasozi (not real names), an elder in one of the villages in Luweero was
also part of the guerilla movement, says the two groups killed people
indifferently in large numbers and used different methods. 

For example, the rebels had a tendency of grabbing people in their homes,
especially at night, dragging them to the forests, ferociously interrogating
them about their relationship and information they held on government
troops, establishments and plans, and later hacking them, he narrates.

He adds that their signature killing method consisted of blindfolding
people, stripping them naked, and then hacking them one by one to death
using axes and spears, among others. 

Citing examples of who actually did such in the bush and their current
whereabouts in or outside government, he notes that, the rebels mostly
killed civilians to grab

Would Peter Otai as a defense minister allow any minister of the Amin’s 
government returned to Uganda and officially buried? Do we have a name of an 
Amin’s minister that was ever returned into Uganda and buried by the UPC party? 
It is a miracle that the UPC 2 government never dug out Ssekabaka Mutesa and 
returned him to London, that was a surprise, whether it happened with good 
intention, or because the Obote two government was so busy murdering Ugandans, 
and breaking up into small pieces that created Museveni, so it never had the 
time to dig him out we may never know. But when ever a UPC member has died, 
Ugandans have looked the other way and allowed the red shirts to receive the 
individual and handed the official burial as well. 

 

The challenge to UPC members in this forum this Toronto morning, it to post 
only one name of a Ugandan they gave an official funeral, when he/she is not a 
UPC member. Only one name. It is that kind of stupidity why you all, die in 
diaspora.

 

Thank you Museveni for remaining the adult standing in the room, mumuleke

The body of the former state minister of Defence who served in the Obote II 
government, Peter Otai, was on Saturday laid to rest at his home in Oderia, 
Soroti Sub County.

The Prime minister, Ruhakana Rugunda, while delivering President Museveni’s 
condolence message, said the late was allowed to return although his health had 
deteriorated.

Mr Museveni praised Otai for having accepted to return peace to Teso through 
accepting to work with the presidential commission for Teso that ended the 
Uganda People’s Army rebellion.

He said the amnesty was provided for people to surrender unconditionally, which 
ended after peace returned.

“There was no need of bearing grudges that had divided us, this guided us to 
extend an olive branch to our brothers to build our country,” the president 
said.

“Government was in touch with Peter Otai and his family, he wanted to return to 
his country and there was no contest about it, but it’s unfortunate because his 
health couldn’t allow him to return,” Mr Museveni said.

Church of Uganda Bishop Kosea Odongo told mourners that it was shameful for the 
government to block the return of Otai whe

every one must be killed. Actually to today 41 years down the road, if UPC 
comes back to power, they will never allow any one that worked in Amin’s 
government get buried that way. To UPC every West Niler is an enemy for life. 
This man not only opposed Museveni but he created a fighting group, Ugandans 
lost their lives due to him, yet Museveni buried the hatchet and he moved on.

 

Talk all the nonsense about the man but Museveni remains the adult standing in 
the room.

Re: [Ugnet] {UAH} A lot of diasporas aren't interested in politics back home!

2019-12-28 Thread Herrn Mulindwa Edward
Robert Atuhairwe

 

This discussion reminds me to ask you another question, Uganda receives 
millions of dollars in money sent by Ugandans in diaspora. That money is cashed 
in at a certain computerized location, so when I send money to Jaja Muwanga in 
Bweyogerere, one must report to a computer terminal to clear those funds. Why 
no one has ever targeted that computerized money exit point, and tax it? Do no 
take too much, but let us say a 2% or a 5% charge. What is the real damage that 
can be done on those transactions? Every country I have lived in has banks that 
charge a bank fee, and I have never seen anyone complaining about those 
charges, by the way they raise them almost every year. Why are these 
transactions going into a country tax free? 

 

And it is very interesting that the WBKs of today, defend poll tax, a taxation 
that was so unfair, to be levied on our parents for they own a coffee tree 
which we could never guarantee how much it would produce. A war against poll 
tax that I fought for years literary, yet the very same WBKs will never 
question why Uganda offers such freebies as money transfers. Wake up people, 
the soup is getting cold !!

How much time did Ugandans torch in arguing the value of dual citizenship 
again? I was supposed to burn my time to discuss it for I came from Uganda. 
Okay now based on the level this thread has reached, given what WBK posted 
yesterday, what is the value of me holding a Uganda passport? Why did that 
conversation take almost two or three years of discussing, when it was an empty 
discussion? No we do not hate the country, we look at the threads and just 
refuse to be a part of stupid discussions. We allow them to go by. And what is 
worse? Dr Munini Mulera was the flag bearer of “Ugandans in diaspora have every 
right to dual citizenship”. 

 

Personally I support Uganda government throwing a tax on all of us when we fly 
home, you want the country to have good roads, and good hospitals cough up the 
money to go in for you love the country. And pay good at the port of entry, I 
show my Canadian passport at entry you charge me $500 American per entry. I 
throw you my credit card you charge it, then you hand me a bottle of Uganda

WBK,

 

You have already explained so well that I really have nothing more to add! 
Ugandan diaspora should have sentimental attachment to home, come for holidays, 
have a break from hard work and bad weather and then go back like they are 
doing now. They should forget about influencing politics back home, when they 
cannot even influence politics in their adopted countries.

 

You know WBK, in 2006 one Ugandan Doctor in South Africa sold his house and 
gave the money to the Besigye campaign apparently sure that Besigye would win. 
He had apparently been promised the position of Minister of Health. He has 
never recovered from the shock up to today.

[Ugnet] RWANDA GRAND VISION LEAVES POOR ON THE CURB

2019-12-28 Thread Herrn Mulindwa Edward

Rwanda's grand vision for future leaves poor on the curb   


By Afp06:44 27 Dec 2019, updated 06:44 27 Dec 2019

 
 

Many of Kigali's poorest no longer feel welcome in a city that has undergone
a major facelift as part of President Paul Kagame's masterplan to turn
Rwanda into a wealthy nation by 2050

Slum dwellers in Kigali are accusing city authorities of razing their homes
without paying compensation, stirring anger among poorer Rwandans who feel
marginalised by a government-led push to modernise the capital.

This month, the first of thousands of homes slated for demolition in
Kigali's unplanned settlements were bulldozed, sparking protests from owners
and tenants told to move on.

City authorities say the homes were built illegally on wetlands, or areas
deemed at risk from landslides and flooding, and those evicted were being
offered lodgings elsewhere.

But many of Kigali's poorest no longer feel welcome in a city that has
undergone a major facelift as part of President Paul Kagame's masterplan to
turn Rwanda into a wealthy nation by 2050.

The capital has been the focus of a multi-billion-dollar infrastructure
blitz in recent years, with futuristic convention centres, five-star hotels
and modern flats altering the skyline.

The city has earned a reputation among African capitals for its unusually
ordered and clean streets, but the heavy-handed approach of local
authorities has caused alarm.

Rights groups have accused the Rwandan government of rounding up
"undesirables", including street children, beggars and prostitutes, and
holding them in a grim detention centres.

Critics say the poor have paid a steep price for Kigali's transformation.
But pockets of resistance have emerged as slums have been cleared to make
way for modern housing complexes or green areas.

 
 

The slums are disparagingly called "Bannyahe" -- a naming roughly
translating to "where I can defecate" -- and border some of Kigali's most
exclusive postcodes

In Nyarutarama, a neighbourhood hosting Kigali's largest informal
settlements, some residents have refused to make way for the wrecking ball,
defying state orders.

"We were told to move because the land was for public benefit," said
Antoinette Mushiyimana, whose home in Nyarutarama is among those marked for
destruction.

"We are being relocated to another small house in Busanza (a suburb in
Kigali). But they are not giving me the compensation I deserve. That is why
many people have refused to move," she told AFP.

These slums are disparagingly called "Bannyahe" -- a naming roughly
translating to "where I can defecate" -- and border some of Kigali's most
exclusive postcodes.

- Left out -

City authorities insist the evictions are for the good of the people.

"The city informed these people that the law does not allow them to live on
wetland areas. They were given letters and advice, but nothing was done,"
Kigali officials said in a statement.

 
 

In Kigali, rising condos and gleaming buildings have made life harder for
ordinary Rwandans, driving up rents and the cost of living

"This is even more important because of the heavy rain and floods, which
might cause deaths."

But some residents accused the local government of reneging on a deal to pay
for the land.

Emmanuel Bayahore said he agreed to vacate his home when city authorities
valued his property at Rwf 28 million (USD$29,500/26,600 euros) in 2017.

But when it was demolished in December, he was handed just Rwf 30,000 to
find new shelter for his wife and three children.

"They destroyed the house, and didn't even give me enough to pay rent for my
family," he said.

He vowed to take the matter to court -- an avenue being explored by others
who felt cheated and brushed aside in a city pushing them ever further to
the margins.

Kagame, who has been in power since 1994, says his "Vision 2050" for a new
Rwanda will drive economic transformation for all in the tiny, landlocked
country where close to 40 percent live in poverty.

 
 

Kigali has a reputation among African capitals for ordered and clean
streets, but the authorities' heavy-handed ways of protecting this image has
caused alarm

Few at home disagree with his plan, or the tremendous costs involved in
rebranding Rwanda as a destination for foreign investment, high-end tourists
and global conferences.

A shiny convention centre opened in Kigali in 2016 cost a reported $300
million, making it one of Africa's most expensive buildings. A new $1.3
billion international airport for Kigali is in the works.

The government also paid European football clubs Arsenal FC and Paris St
Germain to promote its "Visit Rwanda" tourism

As we enjoy this weekend with a some nice weather, let us remember that it
is only temporary, we are in winter. By the way if you took the moment to be
observant you will realize that today we have had the shortest day of the
year, and tonight we are getting the longest night of this year. That means
that from tonight on wards, the nights are going to start to become shorter
as days become longer. We are tonight crossing the middle point into summer.
And I know that what I am talking to you right now does not make sense, but
tonight we are going to sleep the most in dark, and then the sun will start
to show up in our windows as we turn around the nightmare into the summer.
The holidays are next week, although I am working through out, but if you
have the leisure of staying home, kindly enjoy, and have a merry Christmas
with all of those that you care about. At the end of it all make sure that
you take a moment and take care of yourself, not the people you love but
yourself. Get that one second and reflect with joy about your life.

 

I love you all and thank you for living with me in diaspora.

[Ugnet] AMERICANS ARE IN A PERMANENT AFRICAN STYLE COUP D'ETAT

2019-10-15 Thread Herrn Mulindwa Edward

We're in a permanent coup
 


Americans might soon wish they just waited to vote their way out of the
Trump era 


I’ve lived through a few coups. They’re insane, random, and terrifying, like
watching sports, except your political future depends on the score. 

The kickoff begins when a key official decides to buck the executive. From
that moment, government becomes a high-speed head-counting exercise. Who’s
got the power plant, the airport, the police in the capital? How many
department chiefs are answering their phones? Who’s writing tonight’s
newscast?

When the KGB in 1991 tried to reassume control of the crumbling Soviet Union
by placing Mikhail Gorbachev under arrest and attempting to seize Moscow,
logistics ruled. Boris Yeltsin’s crew drove to the Russian White House in
ordinary cars  ,
beating KGB coup plotters who were trying to reach the seat of Russian
government in armored vehicles. A key moment came when one of Yeltsin’s men,
Alexander Rutskoi – who two years later would himself lead a coup against
Yeltsin

– prevailed upon a Major in a tank unit to defy KGB orders and turn on the
“criminals.”

We have long been spared this madness in America. Our head-counting ceremony
was Election Day. We did it once every four years. 

That’s all over, in the Trump era. 

On Thursday, news broke that two businessmen said to have “peddled
supposedly explosive information about corruption involving Hillary Clinton
and Joe Biden” were arrested at Dulles airport on
 “campaign finance violations.” The two figures are alleged to
be bagmen bearing “dirt” on Democrats, solicited by Trump and his personal
lawyer, Rudy Giuliani. 

Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman will be asked to give depositions to impeachment
investigators. They’re reportedly going to refuse. Their lawyer John Dowd
also says they will “refuse to appear before House Committees investigating
President Donald Trump.” Fruman and Parnas meanwhile claim they had real
derogatory information about Biden and other politicians, but “the U.S.
government had shown little interest in receiving it through official
channels.” 

For Americans not familiar with the language of the Third World, that’s two
contrasting denials of political legitimacy. 

The men who are the proxies for Donald Trump and Rudy Giuliani in this story
are asserting that “official channels” have been corrupted. The forces
backing impeachment, meanwhile, are telling us those same defendants are
obstructing a lawful impeachment inquiry. 

This latest incident, set against the impeachment mania and the reportedly
“expanding” Russiagate investigation of U.S. Attorney John Durham,
accelerates our timeline to chaos. We are speeding toward a situation when
someone in one of these camps refuses to obey a major decree, arrest order,
or court decision, at which point Americans will get to experience the joys
of their political futures being decided by phone calls to generals and
police chiefs.

My discomfort in the last few years, first with Russiagate and now with
Ukrainegate and impeachment, stems from the belief that the people pushing
hardest for Trump’s early removal are more dangerous than Trump. Many
Americans don’t see this because they’re not used to waking up in a country
where you’re not sure who the president will be by nightfall. They don’t
understand that this predicament is worse than having a bad president.  

The Trump presidency is the first to reveal a full-blown schism between the
intelligence community and the White House. Senior figures in the CIA, NSA,
FBI and other agencies made an open break from their would-be boss before
Trump’s inauguration, commencing a public war of leaks that has not stopped.


The first big shot was fired in early January, 2017, via a CNN.com headline,
“Intel chiefs presented Trump with claims of Russian efforts to compromise
him
 .” This tale, about the January 7th presentation of former
British spy Christopher Steele’s report to then-President-elect Trump, began
as follows:

Classified documents presented last week to President Obama and
President-elect Trump included allegations that Russian operatives claim to
have compromising personal and financial information about Mr. Trump,
multiple US officials with direct knowledge of the briefings tell CNN.

Four intelligence chiefs in the FBI’s James Comey, the CIA’s John Brennan,
the NSA’s Mike Rogers, and Director of National Intelligence James Clapper,
presented an incoming president with a politically disastrous piece of
information, in this case a piece of a private 

[Ugnet] ***UNCHECKED*** UGANDA AT A POINT OF REFLECTION OF THE VERY GOOD OLD DAYS

2019-10-06 Thread Herrn Mulindwa Edward
Friends

 

The Uganda some of us were born in was a peace full country, my heart goes
out to those that were born late for you missed out. Kampala had only 50,000
people or just under, Walusimbi Mpanga was the mayor of the city, and he was
being paid a single shilling per month as a salary. Mpanga is only beaten by
Donald J Trump that charges Americans nothing for saving their country. It
was illegal for any soldier to walk in public with a uniform or a gun, there
was not a single barracks in public place. Uganda was a pearl of Africa.

 

The coming of Obote one government changed most of that, we started to see
the army in public for the first time, They drove trucks Leyland and they
were dark. “Troop carriers” A national Emergency was announced on the
country followed very immediately with a curfew. And that is  how the state
of Uganda  started to be screwed up by only three Ugandans, Sir Edward
Mutesa, Milton Obote and Mayanja Nkangi, of which none had the  brains to
just leave the country alone.

 

1971 God remembered Uganda as he remembered The United States in 2016, he
created an Iddi Amin Dada Ssabalongo that came to save the country from the
people that thought they owned it. This piece is about the Uganda I saw
between 1971 to 1979.

 

As Amin lead the country, his home region, Arua and Koboko became directly
affected, Lugbaras never wanted to live in Kampala, they wanted to live in
the West Nile. But West Nile was very back ward, I think Arua had one
street, Koboko I did not know that much of for I did not go there pre 1971.
Since the Mafuta Mingi had kicked in and Bayindi sent packing, the economy
of Uganda flew at the speed United States is flying today. 

 

Lugbaras taped into the income and decided to build both Arua and Koboko. By
1975 a house was popping up on an Arua street every day, and they were
building at this pace, you buy  a plot today, by afternoon UEB plants a
power pole into the plot, and puts a bulb on that pole, they did the
Omusingi when they are using the light from the pole. Both Arua and koboko
became live and weekends were starting on Thursday and ending on Tuesday, no
one wanted to be in Kampala any more. Jobs were available for Agriculture
and Livestock industry had started a massive farm in Zeu. Communication was
good for Amin had installed the Ombaci satellite.

 

At the end of the Tanzanian war, Acholi and Langi attacked West Nile, they
did more  looting in West Nile than what we saw in Kampala, they looted the
doors and windows out but they took the bricks too. Acholi and Langi
attacked all the buildings and literary dug them out of the Omusingi and
left Arua and West Nile empty. They had army trucks and used them to loot
the entire West Nile. After looting it and taking the bricks too, the Obote
two government did not run the entire West Nile. Hospitals were cut out,
power supply was cut out and the  government refused to run an election in
West Nile. The George Okello disregarded West Nile as not a part of Uganda
during the entire Obote two government.

 

What we fail to understand to today, is where Langi and Acholi took all
those properties, what happened to the bricks? What happened to all the
doors and windows they looted out of West Nile? But history had educated us
as well that all the property they looted out of Luwero, they failed to use
it and build The North. To today in 2019 there is not a single house in
Acholi or Lango that was built from the iron sheets of Luwero, they still
live in thatched houses. 

 

So Acholi and Langi are professional demolitionists that build nothing, they
loot yes but they bring all that property back and sell it into Buganda for
they were never born to build for themselves. When they were leaving
Tanzania, Nyerere gave them a pile of clothes and drums of paraffin, they
were driving it to Gulu and back to Kampala to resale it, get the money and
drink it. When you get so much drinking in society, you get time on hands
which makes them screw their wives none stop. So you end up with population
of none builders, best looters and infesting the entire half of the country.

 

As Dan Bwanika challenges us to invest into the real estate of Uganda, we
need to realize that we have professional demolitionists by the Langi Acholi
definition. Those buildings you see in Gulu are of none Acholi and none
Langi, it is Baganda Westerners and Indians building, at the fall of
Museveni, all of them are going to go down, and this time around even the
firkin Pece stadium Gulu is going to be looted. That is who Acholi and Langi
are.

 

Until when we go back into the Uganda constitution, and write an article
with in the constitution, allowing any future Uganda leader to find a way to
create a way to beat the crap out of Acholi and Langi, to make sure that at
every ten to fifteen years a sitting leader has a constitutional
responsibility to Musevenise them to a firkin pulp, don’t invest money into
Uganda real estate.

Swedish Women Experience Mass Rape By Immigrant Invaders

October 2, 2019   | 

Swedish Women Experience Mass Rape by Immigrant Invaders

The mass rape of German Women in the aftermath of WW II is now the plight of 
Swedish women

Remember: the same Swedish authorities who do not want to hear rape charges 
against immigrant invaders made by white Swedish women are the authorities who 
launched accusations of rape against Julian Assange for consensual relations 
with two eager groupies.

The Chairman of Sweden’s automobile production Company, Volvo, says that 
immigrant crime imported into Sweden by the Swedish government is so high that 
Volvo might have to move out of Sweden in order to conduct its business.

His factual acknowledgement of the crime that the treasonous Swedish 
government, a collection of some of the most evil and stupid people on earth, 
has committed against Sweden could lead to the indictment of the Swedish 
Chairman of Volvo as a “racist.”

This is not a far-fetched supposition.  My column, which is read 
internationally, brings me emails from Swedish women who say that if they 
report their rape by dark-skinned “immigrants” unleashed on the Swedish 
population by a treasonous government, they risk being prosecuted, because a 
protest against an immigrant is regarded as a hate crime.  Throughout the 
Western World, third world immigrants have power over the ethnic populations 
that “host” them.  The entirety of the Western World is ceasing to exist as 
countries dissolve into preferential treatment for invaders.

Volvo Chairman says company might have to move out of Sweden as crime is so 
high.

https://www.rt.com/news/463964-volvo-high-crime-rate-sweden/ 

Notice that political correctness has found its way into RT’s report, which 
does not mention that migrant invaders are the source of the exploding crime 
rate. RT has to comply with Washington’s orders or be banned from reporting in 
America.

correctness has been taken in Sweden:  https://youtu.be/iERLyAxddVE

[Ugnet] BACK IN THE GOOD OLD DAYS OF IDDI AMIN DADA THE-SABALONGO

2019-09-19 Thread Herrn Mulindwa Edward
Friends

 

Way back in the 70’s, during the years some of us were proud to publicly
identify ourselves as Ugandans, Amin’s government pushed the issue of Uganda
local languages to be used both internally and externally. The time of Obote
one government, where kids were whacked in school for they had used Luganda
on a school compass than English ended. I remember when we travelled to
France  and Uganda embassy at that time, had the largest Uganda library,
where any one at a no charge would walk in, and read all books you wanted as
long as they were written in a Uganda local language. The Zinunula Omunaku’s
were in Paris, I remember prayer books including hymn books in Uganda local
languages, and all the what have you all were in stock.

 

Fast forward to 2019 and walk into the store that brings us Uganda products
into Toronto, we get Matooke, we get millet, we get Cassava powder, we get
Muzigo, Curry powder is here, and that is to mention only the packed
products. I am leaving out the loose products as Menvu, Bikajjo, Lumonde
also comes loose. My concern is in only the packed and labeled product. We
get a very sizable supply and fresh, these things fly in twice a week.

 

When you look closely at all those packed products, Uganda has no single
product with a single word written in a local language. All labels are
written in English to a point that if the word Uganda was available in
English, they would have written that one too in English. At a rate Uganda
is exporting its products these days, “one would think”, that the relative
ministries would pick up on that traffic to promote Uganda and what it owns
at home. One would think that entities like Mengo would push the Luganda
language to show up on some of the products out of Buganda. One would think
that individuals that are making a killing out of these products, would love
the country producing them to a point of promoting their  local languages to
the international community.

 

It just happens that most of the people making decisions in our country, on
politics, on trade, even attacking Iddi Amin in Uganda forums, many are
actually none-Ugandans but mostly Rwandese. What happened to Ugandans? Where
are they? When will Ugandans take their country back? When will Ugandans
make Uganda great again? Strangely I am a member of several Rwanda forums,
the day I attack Rwanda or its present or past leaders, is the day I am
thrown out.

 

Which takes me back to the very original question, why are Rwandese given
such an open boarder policy on UAH, to attack Uganda and its leaders, past
and present?-> Just asking !!

[Ugnet] OBAMA'S NEW WAR IN UGANDA

2019-09-16 Thread Herrn Mulindwa Edward

Obama’s New War in Uganda 


By Doug Bandow   

This article appeared on American Spectator (Online)
  on October 31, 2011.

Money burns a hole in the pocket of some people. Power does the same for
some presidents. How else to explain President Barack Obama's creation of
his own variant of Germany's fabled Afrika Korps, to serve in a small
guerrilla war in Uganda?

It has been more than ten years since America was at peace. If President
Obama has his way it will be many more years before U.S. troops stop
fighting somewhere on earth.

After the demise of the Soviet Union left America as the globe's dominant
power, Washington made war commonplace. Bombing, invading, and occupying
other nations became just another policy initiative advanced by presidents
on both sides of the partisan aisle.

President George H.W. Bush had Panama and Iraq. President Bill Clinton
intervened in Somalia, Haiti, Bosnia, and Kosovo. President George W. Bush
invaded Afghanistan and Iraq. President Obama adopted Afghanistan as his
own, before adding Libya and now Uganda.

These conflicts had surprisingly little to do with American security. Only
Afghanistan — the initial phase, targeting al-Qaeda for 9/11 and punishing
the Taliban regime for hosting Osama bin Laden — was a defensive action. The
first Gulf War responded to aggression, but not against the U.S.

Most of the other interventions were militarized social work, intervening
where the U.S. had little or no plausible security interest. Unfortunately,
rarely did the humanitarian consequences match the initial expectations.

Somalia and Haiti look little different than before American military
action. U.S. intervention in Kosovo and Iraq sparked additional violence and
human rights abuses — including from Washington's new allies. Bosnia and
Kosovo remain unstable quasi-states, held together only by allied pressure.

The nation-building exercise in Afghanistan has no end in sight. U.S. and
European officials insist that military withdrawal in 2014 will be followed
by even more intensive involvement — for years or decades. The future of
Libya, after NATO's deceitful campaign of regime change conducted in the
name of humanitarianism, is anyone's guess.

Now there's Uganda. President Obama has sent 100 military personnel to
Uganda to help destroy the so-called Lord's Resistance Army and kill or
capture the LRA's bizarre leader, Joseph Kony. The president explained to
Congress: "I believe that deploying these U.S. Armed Forces furthers
national security interests and foreign policy."

Fighting the LRA obviously does not promote American security. To encourage
American support, Uganda's acting Foreign Minister, Henry Okello Oryem,
played the T card: "For 20 years, the government Uganda has been pleading
with our American and European friends to help in the LRA problem, because
these are international terrorists."

International terrorists? In fact, that's nonsense: the LRA
(mischaracterized as "Christian") is a garden variety, if extra brutal,
insurgent force. Whatever Kony's ambitions, striking the U.S. is not among
them.

The group doesn't even threaten the rule of Ugandan President Yoweri
Museveni. The LRA has committed more than its share of murder and mayhem
over the years, but has shrunk dramatically in size and capability. The LRA
now is estimated at between 200 and 400 fighters, a tenth the number of just
a few years ago — and without any heavy weapons. They are enough to unsettle
a province, not destabilize a country, let alone a continent.

What foreign policy interests are allegedly being served? Some in Washington
believe that there is nothing in the world which is not a "vital interest"
for America. But as the globe's superpower, the U.S. could — and should —
remain aloof from most of the tragic but common conflicts which dot the
globe. Especially with its problems at home, Washington should not become
the counter-insurgency force for the world.

Yet, the president explained, while U.S. personnel are initially being
deployed to Uganda, they are to "provide assistance to regional forces" and
could end up in the Central African Republic, Democratic Republic of the
Congo, and/or South Sudan as well. Columnist Michael Gerson argued that
"this is not an American humanitarian intervention. It is American aid for
an African humanitarian intervention."

However, Washington already has checked that box. The U.S. has been
providing military assistance to Uganda since 2008. This summer Uganda
shared with Burundi about $45 million worth of American equipment, including
four drones. In 2009 the U.S. Africa Command helped the Ugandan military
plan a series of strikes called Operation Lightning Thunder. Washington also
has provided aid to militaries from Congo and South Sudan to combat the LRA.

Alas, none of these steps have had much effect.

The latest move might still count as mere "aid" for someone else's

What is actually very incomprehensible is any head out there, that adored 
president Barrack Obama, who was the very right hand man of Yoweri Museveni. 
That very same head also hates Donald J Trump very passionately, a man that 
goes very against Yoweri Museveni. As time goes on, it is going to be very 
complex to ignore the support of The Democrats to African despots. And do you 
know the strongest woman that I adore the most out there? It is Nimrata Haley. 
You are going to see more out of her just give her the time. Any one that 
supports the Democratic party, very directly supports it at a cost of African 
lives, that we keep on losing every day.

 

For the record, president Barrack Obama, was personally responsible for the 
oppression of the people of Northern Uganda in camps. Had a Republican been  in 
The White House, those camps would have never survived that long.

 

Ignore/frustrate discussing American politics in your forums at your own peril.

Gen. Kayihura is a mass killer but I don't believe he is a fool. 

 

I'm confident that he has documented that orders for the crimes he carried out 
came from the Godfather and that he has shared this evidence to the right 
parties to make sure they are still useful and actionable whether he lives or

FILE PHOTO: Norbert Mao

Kampala, Uganda | THE INDEPENDENT | The President-General of the Democratic 
Party-Norbert Mao has said that sanctions against the former Inspector General 
of Police-IGP Kale Kayihura were long overdue.

On Friday, the United States Government announced visa and economic sanctions 
against Kale Kayihura. The announcement was made in a statement issued by the 
United States Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control 
(OFAC).

The Department said that it has credible information that Kayihura was involved 
in torture and cruel, inhuman, or degrading treatment or punishment, through 
command of an entity of government. Kayihura was IGP to whom Flying Squad a 
unit of police that has been associated with for torture reported directly.

Kayihura is also accused of corruption and bribery to strengthen his political 
position, as units under his command committed serious human rights abuses 
against people.

Mao says that the sanctions should have been issued when he was still IGP. He 
also says that the sanctions should be extended to other people engaged in 
human rights violations in the country including high ranking officials of 
government.

He says that the sanctions should a lesson to other security agencies who 
torture, hold suspects in un-gazetted places and brutalize opposition 
supporters.

Ibrahim Semujju Nganda, the Spokesperson of the Opposition and the Forum for 
Democratic Change-FDC party says that that the sanctions against Kayihura 
confirm the public outcry that has existed for years.

He says that the sanctions should be a lesson to other Ugandans engaged in 
human rights violation and corruption tendencies.

The Executive Director of Anti-Corruption Coalition Uganda, Cissy Kagaba 
welcomed the move by the United States.

She wonders how the government failed to institute charges of corruption 
against Kayihura.

Kagaba however, notes that the economic sanctions against Kayihura may not have 
aa big impact on him since he could choose to abandon travelling to the U.S.

Deputy Government Spokesperson Col. Shaban Bantariza says that since the U.S is 
an independent state that is free to do whatever they want.

Canada Post is a Federal Government institution, it was built on the very
old British system  that was structured to never change. As far as I can
remember Canada Post has been making  a loss every year, and it comes back
to the tax payer to get the money it needs to operate. You can never ask
questions about a Federal ran organization. When E-Commerce showed up,
Canada post woke from its sleep for it was losing so much, and the amounts
it was asking for, just became too complicated to politically be sold. 

 

The organization changed to the current situation, these days they open even
on Sunday, if I get a contract like the one of Air Canada I talked about
yesterday, I can call Canada Post and they rent me a ware house, I can use
their trucks and pay for them. Even though the letter posting has dropped in
2019 Canada Post is slowly starting to make a profit for the first time in
its life. The organization is slowly getting out of the Federal Government
protection to become a very aggressive competitor. They own a courier
company called Purolator too, which is polling in a chuck of cash.

 

For a very long time the banking sector of this country has been delivering
a service based on favors. Banks used to open at 9 30 some 10 am and close
at 3pm. You would not do any banking in the entire country outside those
hours. Smaller banks like Canada Trust started to open at 8am and close at
8pm, the larger ones have started to follow as well. Banking sector has
changed so much that today I do not need to go to a bank to carry out any
transaction. 

 

The TD bank I use, has a phone number I can call collect from any part of
the world, I talk to whoever picks up and do any transaction I need,
including transferring funds, asking for a loan and anything I need, just on
a phone. How do I identify myself when I am in Uganda on a phone? Voice
recognition. I called in and talked to an agent, the computer recognized my
voice and it kept it on record, so the moment I call from Kampala, the agent
asks me general questions, where are you Edward, how is the weather down
there, what food do you eat? 5 seconds later the computer comes back with
yup that is him. I do not need a bank card, I do not need a passport I just
need my voice.

 

Ugandans as a population literary fear change, the Acholi you see today
selling a chicken on a bicycle in Gulu is doing a job his grand grand grand
parents did. So will the grand grand grand kids to come 50 years down the
road. There is nothing that grieved Dr Kisekka as “Akasimo” agriculture in
Buganda. The man complained about that hoe you carry on your back to your
kibanja to dig every morning. It is a bad investment for it will never grow
your economy. 

 

The man prayed that we mechanize that agriculture, we need to add in a mixed
farming as well. He died without success because Ugandans fear change. There
are people that will never move from their bibanja for the ancestors were
buried into them. Good Lord you tell me to go to Nova Scotia today for there
is a job, I put on my second shoe when the flight is above 30,000 feet. A
Ugandan trains his child to hold that Kasimo from age 5, a very agriculture
Dr. Kisekka has already cautioned you that it does not work.

 

That fear of change gave birth to the taxi industry, and I have written
about this industry before. Why do Ugandans travel that much? There is a
taxi park in Kampala, a taxi park in Bwayise, a taxi park in Kawanda, Kalule
has one, Wobulenzi has one, so is Luwero, Nakasongola on and on you go till
you hit Arua. Why don’t we find what they are looking for and we take it to
them? Oh I remember it is called “Services nearer to the people” Iddi Amin
tried it and you hated him, you hate him that to today he is labeled a
killer and a worst monster out there. 

 

“There's all evidence here that one needs to confirm President Obote's
credentials as a leading African liberator. AMO was a cut above the rest.”
That very sad sentence has just been posted in UAH today. The hate of Amin
is very evident yet I see no new plans to replace the ugly proposals he
tried to put into the country. Obote failed even to reinstate the 18
districts when he came back, if they were perfect for Uganda why did he
leave the system as Amin changed it to? So you wait and at the end of the
Pojim’ s degree holder mumbo jumbo about Obote, you ask him a policy we have
in Uganda that Obote left, and you ask for only one.

 

And then Pojim sits with his friends to preach how he has helped his
relatives by sending them 5 matatus straight out of Japan. Investment for
them as they slip a cold beer. No actually that “investment” is a poison,
those vehicles feed exactly into the disease of economical failure, instead
of taking what the people want to them you are encouraging useless mass

[Ugnet] JAMES COMEY HAS BECOME THE LOW HANGING FRUIT

2019-07-31 Thread Herrn Mulindwa Edward
James Comey's next reckoning is imminent — this time for leaking

By John Solomon, opinion contributor — 07/31/19 07:30 

The Justice Department’s chief watchdog is preparing a damning report on
 James Comey conduct in his final
days as FBI director that likely will conclude he
 leaked classified
information and showed a lack of candor after his own agency began looking
into his feud with   President
Trumpover the Russia probe.

Inspector General (IG) Michael Horowitz’s team referred Comey for possible
prosecution under the classified information protection laws, but Department
of Justice (DOJ) prosecutors working for Attorney General
 William Barr reportedly have
decided to decline prosecution — a decision that’s likely to upset Comey's
conservative critics.

Prosecutors found the IG’s findings compelling but decided not to bring
charges because they did not believe they had enough evidence of Comey’s
intent to violate the law, according to multiple sources. 

The concerns stem from the fact that one memo that Comey leaked to a friend
specifically to be published by the media — as he admitted in
 congressional testimony —
contained information classified at the lowest level of “confidential,” and
that classification was made by the FBI after Comey had transmitted the
information, the sources said.

Although a technical violation, the DOJ did not want to “make its first case
against the Russia investigators with such thin margins and look petty and
vindictive,” a source told me, explaining the DOJ’s rationale.

But Comey and others inside the FBI and the DOJ during his tenure still face
legal jeopardy in ongoing probes by the IG and
 Barr-appointed special prosecutor
 John Durham Those investigations
are focused on the origins of the Russia investigation that included a
Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrant targeting the Trump
campaign at the end of the 2016 election, the source said.

“There are significant issues emerging with how the FISA was handled and
other conduct in the investigation, and everyone involved remains under
scrutiny,” a second source said.

Patrick Fitzgerald and Daniel Richman, two of Comey’s lawyers, and Keith
Urbahn, his spokesman, did not return repeated calls and emails seeking
comment.

The lack of prosecution is certain to demoralize some conservatives, who
long have called for Comey’s head. But the IG report, set to be released
within the next few weeks, likely will provide significant condemnations of
Comey’s conduct, sources tell me. 

While they cautioned that the IG’s final report won’t be complete until it
gets feedback from Comey’s lawyers in the next few days, it is expected to
conclude that the former FBI director improperly took with him memos that
were FBI property when he was fired, transmitted classified information via
an insecure email account, and shared some of the memos with his private
lawyers. Some of the
 Comey memos were classified up
to the “secret” level, but the FBI has not disclosed whether those were
shared with his lawyers like the classified confidential memo was.

The memos, which mostly recount Comey’s interactions with Trump in the
Russia case and include information about foreign leaders, were sensitive
enough to require government officials to send a professional “scrub team”
to a Comey lawyer’s office to ensure all classified information was deleted,
sources previously told me.

In addition, the IG is likely to find that Comey engaged in a lack of candor
when FBI agents came to retrieve the classified memos in his possession,
failing to tell the interviewing agent that he had forwarded some of the
sensitive memos by email, according to sources familiar with the probe.

 
Documents released Thursday by the FBI to the conservative group Judicial
Watch support that conclusion, showing the FBI report on its
 meeting with Comey at his
home to recover the memos made no mention that the ex-director had forwarded
the memos on to others. 

The revelations are likely to dent Comey’s carefully manicured image as a
law-and-order FBI director who was fired for standing up to Trump.

New Docs Show FBI Agents Went To Comey’s Home to Retrieve Memos




Documents also show Comey’s claim that two memos he wrote documenting
conversations with President Trump were ‘missing’

(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch announced today it received six pages
  of records from the FBI showing that in June, 2017, a month after FBI
Director James Comey was fired by President Donald Trump, FBI agents visited
his home and collected “as evidence” four memos that allegedly detail
conversations he had with President Trump.  One of his memos was written on
June 6, a month after he was fired.

Comey was fired
  by Trump
on May 9, 2017. The memos obtained by Judicial Watch were collected from
Comey by the FBI on June 7, a month later, and are dated February 14, 2017;
March 30, 2017; April 11, 2017; and one is dated “last night at 6:30 pm.”

The FBI documents also revealed that Comey recalled writing two other memos
after conversations with Trump that he claimed were “missing.”  The FBI
visit and interview took place on June 7, the day before Comey admitted
leaking the memos in testimony to Congress.

The new FBI documents include a June 9, 2017, FBI Collected Item Log which
states:

On June 7, 2017, at approximately 10:15 A.M., Federal Bureau of
Investigation (FBI) Special Agents (SA) [redacted] and [redacted] collected
memorandums (memos) as evidence from James Comey at his residence at
[redacted]. The memos collected described as follows:

* 

o   One memo dated February 4, 2017, two pages;

o   One memo dated March 30, 2017, two pages;

o   One memo dated April 11, 2017, one page;

o   One memo dated “last night at 6:30 pm,” four pages

Judicial Watch also received a newly declassified FBI document dated June
16, 2017, in which FBI agents describe Comey telling them that he had
written two additional Trump meeting memos that he could no longer find:

Former FBI Director James Comey was interviewed at his residence at
[redacted]. This interview was scheduled in advance, for the purpose of
providing certain classified memoranda (memos) to Comey for review. After
being advised of the identity of the interviewing Agents and the nature of
the interview, Comey provided the following information:

After reviewing the memos, Comey spontaneously stated, to the best of his
recollection, two were missing:

In the first occurrence, Comey said at an unknown date and time, between
January 7, 2017, which Comey believed was the date of his briefing at Trump
Tower, and Trump’s inauguration on January 20th, 2017, Comey received a
phone call from President Elect Donald J. Trump. The originating telephone
number may have had a New York area code. Following the telephone
conversation, Comey drafted and e-mailed a memo to James Rybicki and FBI
Deputy Director Andrew McCabe.

In the second instance, Comey was on his way to a FBI leadership conference
in Leesburg, Virginia (March 9, 2017) when he was diverted to Liberty
Crossing to respond to a request from Trump to contact him. Comey contacted
Trump from Liberty Crossing on a Top Secret telephone line. The conversation
was “all business” and related to [redacted]. Comey is less sure he drafted
a memo for his conversation but if he did, he may have sent it on the FBI’s
Top Secret network.

Judicial Watch obtained the records in a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA)
lawsuit
  against the Justice Department that
sought all records of communications relating to Comey’s providing memoranda
of his conversations with President Trump to Special Counsel Robert Mueller
and his team. (
 Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of Justice (No.
1:18-cv-00932)).

“These extraordinary FBI docs further confirm that James Comey should never
have had FBI files on President Trump at his home and that the FBI failed to
secure and protect these private and classified files,” stated Judicial
Watch President Tom Fitton.  “Mr. Comey’s illegal leaking these FBI files as
part of his vendetta against President Trump (directly resulting in the
corrupt appointment of Robert Mueller) ought to be the subject of a criminal
investigation.”

On June 8, 2017, Comey testified
  to the Senate Intelligence Committee that he leaked
memos of his conversations with President Trump “because (he) thought that
might prompt the appointment of a special counsel.” Columbia University Law
professor Daniel Richman, a friend of Comey’s, reportedly

Trump announces seven pardons or sentence commutations 


Brett Samuels 

1 hr ago 

 

© Aaron Schwartz

U.S. President Donald Trump commuted the sentences of two nonviolent
criminals and granted pardons to five others who previously pleaded guilty
to nonviolent crimes but have completed their sentences.

President Trump on Monday commuted the sentences of two nonviolent criminals
and granted pardons to five others who previously pleaded guilty to
nonviolent crimes but have completed their sentences.

The White House announced that Trump commuted the sentence of Ronen Nahmani,
who was convicted in 2015 and sentenced to 20 years in prison for conspiring
to distribute a synthetic drug known as Spice.

The White House said Nahmani was a first-time offender with no prior
criminal history who has five young children at home and a wife battling
terminal cancer. The release also noted his case for an early release
received support from bipartisan lawmakers.

Trump also commuted the sentence of Ted Suhl, an Arkansas man who was
convicted in 2016 on four counts of bribery after prosecutors said he took
part in a scheme to increase Medicaid payments to his company.

Suhl appealed the ruling, but it was upheld, and he intended to file for an
appeal with the U.S. Supreme Court. The White House noted his "spotless
disciplinary record" while incarcerated and highlighted his support from
Gov. Mike Huckabee and former U.S. Attorney Bud Cummins. 

In addition, Trump granted executive clemency to five people.

The president pardoned John Richard Bubala, who pleaded guilty in 1990 to
improper use of federal government property by transferring automotive
equipment to the town of Milltown, Indiana.

Trump also pardoned Roy Wayne McKeever, who pleaded guilty in 1989 after he
was arrested for transporting marijuana from Mexico to Oklahoma. McKeever
was 19 at the time and served one year in jail.

Rodney Takumi received a pardon for a conviction over a 1987 arrest while he
was working at an illegal gambling parlor. Takumi now owns a tax preparation
franchise within the Navajo Nation, the White House said.

Trump granted clemency to Michael Tedesco, who was convicted in 1990 of drug
trafficking and fraud. Former President Obama had pardoned Tedesco in 2017,
but the fraud conviction remained on his record due to a clerical error.
Trump's pardon will remove that charge, allowing Tedesco to obtain state
licenses needed for his business.

The president also pardoned Chalmer Lee Williams, who was convicted in 1995
of several crimes related to theft of firearms and checked luggage during
his time as a baggage handler. Williams served four months in prison and two
years of supervised release. His voting rights in Kentucky were restored in
1998, the White House said.

"Through these full and unconditional pardons, the Federal rights of these
men, including the right to vote and the right to bear arms, have been fully
restored," the White House said in a statement. "Today, they are once again
full and equal citizens under the law."

With Monday's announcements, Trump has now pardoned or reduced the sentences
  of 19 individuals since taking office.

[Ugnet] 100 MILES OF WALL COMMING TO A HOUSE NEAR YOU

2019-07-26 Thread Herrn Mulindwa Edward

Supreme Court Allows Trump To Build 100 Miles Of Wall With Military Funds 


Kevin Daley   Supreme Court
correspondent 

July 26, 20196:45 PM ET 

*The Supreme Court lifted lower court orders barring the
administration from using $2.5 billion in military funds to finance
construction of the border wall in a Friday evening decision.

*The ruling, called a stay, allows the government to start
construction on 100 miles of border wall while litigation continues in the
lower courts. 

*The plaintiffs in Friday’s case said they would ask the 9th U.S.
Circuit Court of Appeals to process the dispute as quickly as possible, in a
bid to slow progress on construction. 

The Supreme Court allowed President Donald Trump to reprogram $2.5 billion
in Pentagon funds to start construction on 100 miles of border wall in a
late Friday order.

The five conservative justices voted with the government in full. Justices
Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Sonia Sotomayor, and Elena Kagan indicated their full
dissent. Justice Stephen Breyer proposed a compromise in a partial dissent.

 

“The government has made a sufficient showing at this stage that the
plaintiffs have no cause of action to obtain review,” the Court
 ’s order reads.

President Trump declared a national emergency
  at the
southern border on Feb. 15 after Congress refused to appropriate sufficient
funds for border barriers. Pursuant to that proclamation, administration
officials announced plans to reprogram $600 million from the Treasury
Department’s forfeiture fund; $2.5 billion from Defense Department
counter-narcotics activities; and $3.6 billion from military construction
projects to finance construction of the wall.

 

The $2.5 billion for counter-drug efforts were at issue in Friday’s case.
That sum was slated to finance fencing in Arizona, California, and New
Mexico. Government lawyers said those projects are priorities for the
Department of Homeland Security, as they are meant to deter narcotic
trafficking in major drug smuggling corridors. The administration moved the
funds pursuant to a transfer statute that allows such reallocations to
address “unforeseen needs,” provided they have not been “denied by the
Congress.”

 

A plaintiffs coalition of environmentalists led by the Sierra Club sued the
administration to stop the reassignment. The plaintiffs said they have
“recreational and aesthetic interests” in habitats near the border, like
“hiking, birdwatching, [and] photography.” The American Civil Liberties
Union (ACLU) represents the plaintiffs.

 

In court papers
 , the administration said the green groups do not have
standing to bring a lawsuit, arguing the transfer statute does not protect
their “recreational and aesthetic interests.”

U.S. District Judge Haywood Gilliam sided with the plaintiffs
  in
June and barred the government from reprogramming the contested funds. A
three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed on a 2-1
vote
  July 3, noting Congress furnished just $1.375 billion for
border barriers, instead of the $5.7 billion the president requested. By the
court’s reading, that meant the wall projects funded by the $2.5 billion had
been “denied by the Congress.”

 

“As for the public interest, we conclude that it is best served by
respecting the Constitution’s assignment of the power of the purse to
Congress, and by deferring to Congress’s understanding of the public
interest as reflected in its repeated denial of more funding for border
barrier construction,” Judge Michelle Friedland wrote. 

 

The Department of Justice takes a narrower view of the transfer statute. The
bar on reprogramming funds for items “denied by the Congress,” refers to
specific requests made during the appropriations process and not “a ‘border
wall’ writ large,” the government argues.

 

The Trump administration then filed an emergency stay application at the
Supreme Court, asking the justices to put the 9th Circuit’s ruling on hold
while litigation continues. Government lawyers asked the Court to resolve
the matter by Friday July 26 due to budget constraints. By their telling,
the monies at issue will not be available for allocation after the fiscal
year ends on Sept. 30 and the Department of Defense needs several months to
finalize contracts.

 

The high court’s order granting the application indicates that a majority of
the Court agrees with the government that the environmentalists do not have
standing to challenge the transfer.

Breyer sought a compromise, suggesting

By Pete Williams and Doha Madani

The U.S. Supreme Court late Friday cleared the way for the Trump
administration to use Defense Department counter-drug money to build a
portion of the planned wall along the border with Mexico.

By a 5-4 vote, the court lifted a stay imposed in late May by a federal
judge in California that blocked the use of $2.5 billion in Pentagon
counter-drug program money to build more than 100 miles of border wall, a
project announced as part of President Donald Trump's declaration of a
national emergency. The judge had said that only Congress could approve such
a transfer.

The Supreme Court's brief order Friday said only that the groups opposed to
the wall did not have the proper legal status to challenge the transfer in
court. The Sierra Club, in filing a lawsuit over the plan, said the
construction would produce environmental harm.

Trump on Friday night hailed the court's decision, tweeting: "Wow! Big
VICTORY on the Wall. The United States Supreme Court overturns lower court
injunction, allows Southern Border Wall to proceed. Big WIN for Border
Security and the Rule of Law!"

The Justice Department had urged the Supreme Court two weeks ago to act on
its request by July 26. It said the Defense Department would not have
authority to transfer the money after the fiscal year ends September 30.
Given how long it takes to go through the contracting process, the
government said, a prompt answer was necessary.

Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan said they
would have left the lower court's stay in place. Justice Stephen Breyer said
he would have favored a middle ground, allowing the government to prepare
the necessary contracts but maintain a hold on actual construction. 

The American Civil Liberties Union decried Friday's ruling, vowing to
continue to fight to block the use of military funds. The ACLU represents
the Sierra Club and Southern Border Communities Coalition in the fight
against the wall.

“This is not over. We will be asking the federal appeals court to expedite
the ongoing appeals proceeding to halt the irreversible and imminent damage
from Trump's border wall. Border communities, the environment, and our
Constitution’s separation of powers will be permanently harmed should Trump
get away with pillaging military funds for a xenophobic border wall Congress
denied,” Dror Ladin, staff attorney with the ACLU’s National Security
Project, said in a statement Friday night.

The president has been fighting for funding for the wall for months.
Congress declined to approve the billions requested by the president earlier
this year, which led to a partial shut down of the federal government
 for 35 days — its longest in
history.

Trump in February
 declared a national emergency that
would require taking money from the Pentagon's budget for a wall. The
emergency declaration set up a battle for power of the purse between the
White House and Congress.

[Ugnet] REPUBLICANS WERE AWARE OF MUELLER'S FRAILTY

2019-07-26 Thread Herrn Mulindwa Edward

Republicans aware of Mueller 'frailty' ahead of hearing

Committee hearing on his report on Russian election interference, on Capitol 
Hill, in Washington, Wednesday, July 24, 2019. (AP Photo/Andrew Harnik) 

 

By Jeff Mordock   - The 
Washington Times - Thursday, July 25, 2019 

Republicans had expected former special counsel Robert Mueller 
 ’s feeble testimony 
and some even strategized around it as they prepared their questions, Rep. Matt 
Gaetz said Thursday.

A day after Mr. Mueller 
 ’s appearance before 
Congress, described by some as “befuddled” and by others as a “disaster” for 
Democrats, the Florida Republican said the 74-year-old prosecutor’s health was 
a hot topic in prep sessions.

“There were some House Republicans in our prep sessions patting themselves on 
the back about that and feeling optimistic about assertions he might not be all 
there,” Mr. Gaetz told The Washington Times.

He said he didn’t believe those colleagues and warned them to expect a 
razor-sharp witness, but “it turned out the rumors we’ve been hearing about his 
condition seemed accurate.”

“I told my colleagues to expect him to be like a wolverine and they’d better 
know every chapter and verse and citation for every question,” he said.

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham, a South Carolina Republican 
who wasn’t part of the questioning of Mr. Mueller 
 , said he was aware of 
the lawyer’s frailty ahead of the hearing.

“I know he’s in a weakened condition,” Mr. Graham told The Times.

He said the Democrats never should have pressured Mr. Mueller 
  to testify, given 
“his condition.”

“He’s an American patriot. He was wounded in Vietnam. He served as FBI director 
after 9/11. I am very upset that [Democrats] would put him in that spot. It was 
clear to me based on common friends that he’s in a weakened condition, and what 
happened was really over the top,” Mr. Graham said.

Many Democrats had hoped Mr. Mueller 
  would seal the case 
for impeachment against President Trump with commercial-ready sound bites about 
corruption and obstruction of justice.

Instead, the former FBI director and prosecutor stumbled over his lines, seemed 
unfamiliar with his own 448-page report and repeatedly had to be guided by his 
questioners.

Jim Popkin, a spokesman for Mr. Mueller 
 , declined to comment 
on his boss’ testimony Thursday.

Rep. Steve Chabot, an Ohio Republican who questioned Mr. Mueller 
  in his morning 
appearance before the House Judiciary Committee, said Thursday that he wasn’t 
aware of the conversations regarding Mr. Mueller 
 ’s health.

“I’m not saying it didn’t come up, but I didn’t hear it,” he said.

He was surprised that Mr. Mueller 
  struggled to answer a 
question about Fusion GPS, a company paid by the Democratic National Committee 
and the Hillary Clinton campaign to conduct opposition research on Mr. Trump.

Fusion GPS paid Christopher Steele, the former British spy who compiled the 
salacious and largely unproven dossier that fueled much of the Trump-Russia 
speculation around the 2016 election and its immediate aftermath.

Mr. Mueller   said he 
was “not familiar with Fusion GPS,” even though it was mentioned in his report.

“It wasn’t a trick question,” Mr. Chabot told The Times.

Rep. Doug Collins of Georgia, the top Republican on the House Judiciary 
Committee, denied that knowledge of Mr. Mueller 
 ’s health played a 
part in his party’s preparations for the session.

“We were just told he’d come in and answer questions,” Mr. Collins said. “My 
concern to my committee was, no matter how he comes in, we are going to ask a 
question very direct and very affirmatively, and that is what we talked about.”

Mr. Collins said the panel wasn’t sure what to expect because Mr. Mueller 
  has stayed out of the 
public eye while running his 22-month investigation into Russian election 
meddling. Beyond the former special counsel’s brief press statement in May, his 
committee had nothing to go on, he told The Times.

Mr. Collins also had a different take on Mr. Mueller

Byron York: Confused performance by Mueller raises questions about handling
of investigation

by   Byron York 

 | July 24, 2019 11:14 AM 



It took just minutes for
 Robert Mueller's testimony before the House
Judiciary Committee to turn into a painful exercise when it became clear the
74 year-old special counsel had difficulty handling the questions posed to
him about his long, complex investigation into the Trump-Russia affair.

Mueller was
 slow to react to questions. He
frequently asked for questions to be repeated. He sometimes appeared
confused. He did not appear to be conversant with some issues in the
investigation. He did not, or could not, put together detailed answers even
to those questions he agreed to address.

Reporters who have covered Mueller for years saw differences from his
appearances in the past. "I haven't seen a performance quite like this from
Mueller," the New York Times' Noah Weiland said in an online discussion. "In
12 years as FBI director, he gave plenty of clipped responses. But more
often than not he was more rhetorically agile than anyone on the committees
that were questioning him. And there was rarely a time when he even paused
for a second after a question was asked. There was little searching in his
eyes for answers. He rarely looked at notes."

Chief Political Correspondent Byron York on the expanded Washington Examiner

[Read:
 Mueller unfamiliar with key parts of own report]

That was the Mueller of years ago. On Wednesday, Mueller seemed incapable of
engaging fully with the questions that were presented to him.

"This is delicate to say, but Mueller, whom I deeply respect, has not
publicly testified before Congress in at least six years. And he does not
appear as sharp as he was then."

Mueller's performance raised questions that reached far beyond one
appearance before one committee. It called into doubt the degree to which
Mueller was in charge of the entire special counsel investigation. 

"You wonder how much of this was affecting the investigation," one
Republican member of the House said as he watched Mueller's testimony. "It
sheds a lot of light on what happened the last two years. He wasn't in
charge."

If Mueller was not fully in charge, that would direct attention to the staff
he assembled for the investigation — staff that President Trump has often
derided as "17 angry Democrats." Some of Mueller's aides were Democratic
donors, and a key aide, Andrew Weissmann, famously attended Hillary
Clinton's 2016 election night event that was planned as a victory party. It
seems likely that Republicans will direct new attention to them in light of
Mueller's appearance.

No one noticed Mueller's performance that more than the centerpiece of the
investigation, the president himself. "This has been a disaster for the
Democrats and a disaster for the reputation of Robert Mueller," the
president tweeted — not his own words, but those of Fox News anchor Chris
Wallace during a break in the testimony.

During that commentary, Wallace said Mueller "has seemed very uncertain with
his brief. He doesn't seem to know things that are in the report ... I think
it does raise questions about the degree to which he actually was in charge
and control of this [investigation]."

Montage: Confused-Looking Mueller Repeatedly Asks for Questions To Be
Repeated


‘Can you repeat the question, sir?’


Jul 24, 2019 9:28 AM

By   Tom Elliott

Former Special Counsel Robert Mueller frequently appeared confused during
his much-anticipated Capitol Hill testimony Wednesday.

Mueller, who is often celebrated in the media for laser-like thinking, had
to ask lawmakers to regularly repeat their questions, seemingly struggling
to pay attention.

At other points, Mueller got confused about whether the members of Congress
were asking him questions or if they were reading from his own report.

In just the first 90 minutes of the hearing, Mueller needed help
understanding questions more than 10 times.

In one such exchange, Mueller — under questioning from Rep. James
Sensenbrenner (R-Wisc.) — asked: “And where are you reading from on that?”

“I’m reading from my own question” the lawmaker reminded him.

“Then can you repeat it?” Mueller asked, eliciting laughter from the
audience. 

In another painful episode, Mueller had to ask Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee three
times to clarify and restate her question. 

Under questioning from Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.), Mueller failed to follow a
question that was merely 14 words long: “Attorney #2 in the Inspector
General’s report and Strzok both worked on your team, didn’t they?”

“Pardon me?” Mueller replied. After Gaetz restated his question, Mueller
replied: “And the question was?”

“I want to go back to one thing that was said this morning by Mr. Lieu, who

[Ugnet] EX-SPECIAL COUNSEL FUMBLES OVER AND OVER

2019-07-24 Thread Herrn Mulindwa Edward

Mueller flustered, asking lawmakers to repeat questions at tense hearing


By   Ronn Blitzer 


  House Judiciary Committee
ranking member to Mueller: Are collusion, conspiracy essentially synonymous
terms?


Georgia Republican Rep. Doug Collins presses former Special Counsel Robert
Mueller on whether or not he believes collusion and conspiracy are
synonymous terms after his answer doesn’t answer match his report.

Former Special Counsel
 Robert Mueller was
frequently tripped up and forced to ask lawmakers to repeat their questions
during his rapid-fire questioning on Capitol Hill on Wednesday, though he
 reportedly prepared at length for the
hearings.

At one point, he even said he wasn't familiar with Fusion GPS, the
opposition research firm behind the controversial anti-Trump dossier.

The longtime lawman was known to be reluctant to testify, having made clear
he would largely stick to the boundaries of his original report. He
reiterated Wednesday that his testimony before House committees would be
based on the text of his report on Russian election interference and
potential obstruction of the
 investigation.

But that didn't stop a barrage of detail-rich questions that seemed to throw
off the usually stone-faced investigator.

House Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Rep. Doug Collins, R-Ga., focused
his questions on the former Special Counsel's findings that the
investigation did not establish any conspiracy between President Trump and
Russia. Collins asked Mueller if "conspiracy" and "collusion" were
colloquially the same thing, and Mueller said no. Collins then quoted
Mueller's own report, which indicated otherwise.

"As defined in legal dictionaries, collusion is largely synonymous with
conspiracy as that crime is set forth in the general federal conspiracy
statute," Collins read from the report. "Now, you said you chose your words
carefully. Are you contradicting your report right now?"

"Not when I read it," Mueller replied, prompting Collins to ask, "So you
would change your answer to yes?"

"No, no, the uh, if you look at the language," Mueller said before trailing
off.

Collins pressed further, saying, "I'm reading your report sir. It's a yes or
no answer."

Mueller asked for the page number of the report, then stammered before
saying he would "leave it with the report." When Collins stated that the
report says that the terms "collusion" and "conspiracy" are synonymous,
Mueller said, "Yes."

Mueller appeared flustered by Collins' questioning, although the congressman
admitted he has a tendency to speak quickly. Collins said he would try to
speak slowly, but still maintained a rapid pace during his five-minute
grilling.

Nevertheless, Mueller appeared off his game even after the fast-talking
Collins was done.

Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif., went next, speaking at a more deliberate pace.
After her first question about the extent to which Russia interfered in the
2016 election, Mueller responded, "Could you repeat that, Ma'am?"

At another point, he asked GOP Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner what he was reading
from.

"I'm reading from my question," the Wisconsin lawmaker shot back, before
Mueller again asked him to repeat his question.

Later in the day, when he appeared before the House Intelligence Committee,
Mueller told a lawmaker his office does not use the word “collusion” because
it “has no relevance to the criminal arena.” He then noticeably struggled to
recall the correct word, at which point Vermont Democratic Rep. Peter Welch
suggested the word “conspiracy” and Mueller replied, "That’s exactly right.”

[Ugnet] IT IS ROBERT MUELLER THAT ASKED THE DOJ TO LIMIT HIS TESTIMONY

2019-07-23 Thread Herrn Mulindwa Edward

Barr says Mueller asked DOJ to send letter limiting testimony to
‘boundaries' of report


By   Jake Gibson,
 Alex Pappas 

Former special counsel Robert Mueller is set to testify on Capitol Hill on
his investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential
election; reaction and analysis from Kevin McCullough, radio host with Salem
Media, and Fox News contributor Judy Miller, adjunct fellow at the Manhattan
Institute for Policy Research.

  Attorney General
Bill Barr told Fox News on Tuesday that it was former
 Special Counsel
Robert Mueller’s team who asked the Justice Department to send Mueller a
letter telling him to keep his upcoming testimony to House lawmakers "within
the boundaries" of the public version of his Russia probe report.

The
 letter
provoked criticism from Democrats ahead of Wednesday’s highly anticipated
hearing, with House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler calling it
“incredibly arrogant.” Asked by Fox News why the Monday letter was sent,
Barr said Mueller’s staff asked the department for guidance ahead of the
hearing.

“At his press conference, Bob had said that he intended to stick with the
public report and not go beyond that,” Barr said in an interview. “And in
conversations with the department, his staff was reiterating that that was
their position and they asked us for guidance in writing to explain or to
tell them [what] our position was. So we responded in writing. The
department sent the guidance that they requested."

Asked directly if it was Mueller who asked for the letter, Barr replied,
“Yes.”

The letter, obtained by Fox News on Monday, was signed by Associate Deputy
Attorney General Bradley Weinsheimer. 

The letter said, “Should you testify, the Department understands that
testimony regarding the work of the Special Counsel's Office will be
governed by the terms you outlined on May 29 -- specifically, that the
information you discuss during your testimony appears in, and does ‘not go
beyond,’ the public version of your March 22, 2019 report to the Attorney
General or your May 29 public statement."

Speaking to Fox News, Barr also hit back at Nadler, who during a CNN
interview Tuesday called the letter “incredibly arrogant” for trying to
“instruct” Mueller what to say.

“He was misinformed as to the facts,” Barr said.

The attorney general also declined to comment on the Democratic-controlled
House holding him and Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross in criminal contempt
over questions having to do with the Trump administration’s proposed
citizenship question to the 2020 census.

“Goes with the territory these days,” Barr said. 

On Wednesday,
 Mueller is expected to testify in public before the House
Judiciary Committee for two hours or more, followed by another two
hours-plus of testimony before the House Intelligence Committee.

Mueller, meanwhile, also has asked that Aaron Zebley, his former chief of
staff and his top aide on the Russia investigation, accompany him at the
witness table during Wednesday's hearing.

Republicans are opposed to the request. Georgia Rep. Doug Collins, the
Judiciary panel's top Republican, called the move an "apparent stunt" by
Democrats. He said it "shows the lengths Democrats will go to protect a
one-sided narrative from a thorough examination by committee Republicans."

Mueller has only spoken in public once about his investigation – in May,
when he signaled his disinterest in testifying, saying, “There has been a
discussion about an appearance before Congress. Any testimony from this
office would not go beyond our report. It contains our findings and
analysis, and the reasons for the decisions we made. We chose those words
carefully and the work speaks for itself.”

Still, Democrats – as some in the party push to impeach President Trump –
subpoenaed Mueller to testify.

During his press conference in May, Mueller said there “was not sufficient
evidence to charge a conspiracy” over whether members of the Trump campaign
coordinated with the Russian government during the 2016 presidential
election. But he declined to reach a conclusion over whether the president
took steps to obstruct his investigation – something Democrats are expected
to focus their questions on Wednesday.

[Ugnet] THE MATCHING ORDERS OF ROBERT MUELLER

US. Department of Justice

Office of the Deputy Attorney General

Office of the Deputy Attorney General 950 Pennsylvania Ave., N.W.

Room 4113, RFK Main Justice Bldg.

Washington, D.C. 20530

July 22, 2019

Robert S. Mueller, III

Washington, D.C.

By email

Dear Mr. Mueller:

I write in response to your July 10, 2019 letter concerning the testimonial
subpoenas you

received from the House Judiciary Committee (HJC) and House Permanent Select
Committee on

Intelligence (HPSCI). Your letter requests that the Department provide you
with guidance

concerning privilege or other legal bars applicable to potential testimony
in connection with

those subpoenas.

On May29, 2019, with the Department’s authorization, you made a public
statement

about your work as Special Counsel. In that statement, you addressed a
possible appearance

before Congress, saying that you “hope and expect this to be the only time I
will speak to you in

this matter.” You also stated that if you testify before Congress, “any
testimony from this

office would not go beyond our report. It contains findings and analysis,
and the reasons for the . -

decisions we made. We chose those words carefully, and the work speaks for
itself. The report

is my testimony. I would not provide information beyond that which is
already public in any

appearance before Congress.” 

 

I understand that subsequently, you advised the committees that

you do not wish to testify concerning your work as Special Counsel, given
that you would not

add anything beyond what you already said in the now-public report and your
public statement.

As the Attorney General has repeatedly stated, the decision to testify
before Congress is

yours to make in this case, but the Department agrees with your stated
position that your

testimony should be unnecessary under the circumstances. 

 

The Department generally does not

permit prosecutors such as you to appear and testify before Congress
regarding their

investigative and prosecutorial activity. In addition, the Department
already has taken

extraordinary steps to make almost your entire report, as well as a
substantial volume of your

underlying investigative material, available to the committees. Should you
testify, the

Department understands that testimony regarding the work of the Special
Counsel’s Office will

be governed by the terms you outlined on May 29 — specifically, that the
information you discuss

during your testimony appears in, and does “not go beyond,” the public
version of your March

22, 2019 report to the Attorney General or your May 29 public statement.

 

Please note that there should be no testimony concerning the redacted
portions of the

public version of your report, which may not be disclosed because of
applicable laws, court rules

and orders(including Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 6(e)), or
longstanding Department

policies. As you know, the U.S. v. Stone and U.S. v. Concord cases remain
pending, and local court rules and specific orders issued in those cases
substantially restrict the Department’s ability

to make public statements about those cases. 

 

In addition, it is the Department’s longstanding

policy not to discuss the conduct of uncharged third-parties. See Justice
Manual § 9-27.760.

Established Department policy also precludes any comment on the facts
developed and legal

conclusions by the Special Counsel’s Office with respect to uncharged
individuals, other than

information contained within the portions of your report that already have
been made public.

 

Finally, any testimony must remain within the boundaries of your public
report because

matters within the scope of your investigation were covered by executive
privilege, including

information protected by law enforcement, deliberative process, attorney
work product, and

presidential communications privileges. These privileges would include
discussion about

investigative steps or decisions made during your investigation not
otherwise described in the

public version of your report. Consistent with standard practice, Department
witnesses should

decline to address potentially privileged matters, thus affording the
Department the full

opportunity at a later date to consider particular questions and possible
accommodations that

may fulfill the committees’ legitimate need for information while protecting
Executive Branch

confidentiality interests.

 

I trust this information is helpful. Please do not hesitate to contact me if
you wish to

further discuss these issues.

Grassley Pressures DOD For More Information On FBI Spy Stephan Halper


By   Sara Carter

 

July 22, 2019



 

Finance Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley sent a
 letter this month to
Department of Defense Acting Secretary Mark Esper, urging him for more
information regarding contracts awarded by its Office of Net Assessment to
FBI informant
 Stefan Halper. Halper was used by the bureau as an
informant to gather information on Trump campaign volunteers during the 2016
election. Grassely stated that the information be provided no later than
July 25 and he requested a full in person briefing with his committee staff
on all of Halper’s contracts with the DoD.

Grassley, R-Iowa asked for the information after an audit was released by
the DoD’s Inspector General’s showed that there was failure to conduct
appropriate oversight of contracts awarded under the DOD.
 Halper had long career in the U.S. government under
several GOP administrations. His connections to the CIA and FBI are
extensive and he had been awarded multiple contracts with the DOD totaling
$411,000 by Washington Headquarters Services on Sept. 26, 2016, for a
contract that ran until this March, 2018, according to USASpending.gov.

“Shockingly, the audit found that these types of discrepancies were not
unique to contracts with Professor Halper, which indicates ONA must take
immediate steps to shore up its management and oversight of the contracting
process,” stated Grassley.

“Accordingly, no later than July 25, 2019, please explain to the Committee
the steps DoD has taken to address the recommendations that DoD IG made with
respect to ONA’s contracting procedures and produce to the Committee all
records related to Professor Halper’s contracts with DoD,” Grassley’s letter
states. “In addition, I request that ONA provide a briefing to my Committee
staff regarding the Halper contracts.”

The 74-year old professor, has rarely spoken out publicly since being outed
by The Washington Post, and other news organizations, as one of the
informants for the bureau who spied on the Trump campaign. He spent a career
developing top-level government connections–not just through academia, as he
did in Great Britain through the Cambridge Security Initiative, but through
his connections in both the CIA and British MI-6. He is expected to be
speaking this month at the seminar, he helped found, according to The Daily
Caller.

“The results of this audit are disappointing and illustrate a systemic
failure to manage and oversee the contracting process,”
 said
Grassley, in a
 letter sent July, 12 to the
DOD. “Time and again, DoD’s challenges with contract management and
oversight are put on display. It is far past time the largest, most critical
agency in this country steps up and takes immediate action to increase its
efforts to stop waste, fraud and abuse of taxpayer dollars.”

According to the DoD Inspector General’s report the
 Office of Net Assessment (ONA)Contracting
Officer’s Representatives (CORs) “did not maintain documentation of the work
performed by Professor Halper or any communication that ONA personnel had
with Professor Halper; therefore, ONA CORs could not provide sufficient
documentation that Professor Halper conducted all of his work in accordance
with applicable laws and regulations. We determined that while the ONA CORs
established a file to maintain documents, they did not maintain sufficient
documentation to comply with all the FAR requirements related to having a
complete COR.”

Grassley had requested the audit
 in January, as part of his oversight and continuing investigation
into the bureau’s handling of the investigation into the Trump campaign.

According to a press release issued by Grassley’s office the  “
 letter highlights potential
problems in relation to ONA’s contracts with Professor Stefan Halper,
including a finding that ONA could not provide sufficient documentation that
Halper conducted all of his work in accordance with applicable laws and
regulations.”

Justice Department warns Mueller to stay on script at showdown hearing with
Congress 


 

By Stephen Dinan   -
The Washington Times - Updated: 7:08 p.m. on Monday, July 22, 2019 

The Justice Department warned former special counsel Robert Mueller on
Monday not to stray beyond the four corners of his already-released report
when he comes to Capitol Hill this week to testify.

Associate Deputy Attorney General Bradley Weinsheimer, in a letter to Mr.
Mueller, said that means any decisions Mr. Mueller made, or information he
uncovered, that he didn’t include in his report will be out of bounds for
the hearing.

The department also has a longstanding practice of not talking about people
who were investigated but not charged, Mr. Weinsheimer said.

He urged Mr. Mueller to stick to his promise, made in late May, that if he
were to be called to testify, he wouldn’t have anything to say beyond what
was in his report, which has been released in somewhat redacted form.

In that report Mr. Mueller concluded there was not sufficient evidence to
find President Trump conspired with Russia to subvert the 2016 election.

Mr. Mueller did find troubling evidence of attempts to obstruct the
investigation into Russia’s activities, but did not reach any firm
conclusions.

Attorney General William P. Barr and then-Deputy Attorney General Rod
Rosenstein, looking at Mr. Mueller’s report, concluded that Mr. Trump could
not have been charged with obstruction.

Democrats, though, accused Mr. Barr of a coverup.

Frustrated that the public wasn’t more enraged at Mr. Mueller’s findings,
the chairs of the Intelligence and Judiciary committees announced subpoenas
to force Mr. Mueller to appear. The goal, they said, is to create a
made-for-television production to drive the report home to Americans.

The hearings in both committees were slated for one day last week, but were
postponed while Democrats tried to tamp down on anger over the format, which
was going to shortchange junior members.

Now the Judiciary Committee will kick off Wednesday at 8:30 a.m., with the
intelligence panel following with its own session afterward.

Mr. Mueller left his job as special counsel this spring, but Mr.
Weinsheimer, in his letter Monday, reminded him that he’s testifying about
his work as a department prosecutor, and is still bound by its rules.

 

Mr. Mueller had apparently written a letter on July 10 asking for guidance
on his testimony.

[Ugnet] THE MUELLER PROBE "STAR WITNESS" INDICTED ON ADDITIONAL SEX CHARGES

2019-07-22 Thread Herrn Mulindwa Edward
Star Witness for Mueller Probe is Indicted on Charges of Child Sex
Trafficking

By   Shane Trejo 

George Nader, who FBI spook Robert Mueller exploited for his witch hunt
against the President, has been charged of sex crimes. 



Serial sexual predator George Nader was one of the star witnesses used by
FBI spook Robert Mueller to build his case against President Donald Trump,
and now that the investigation has concluded with no evidence proving Trump
committed any Russian collusion, Nader has been charged with child sex
trafficking.

The Lebanese-American businessman was indicted on accusations that he
transported a 14-year-old European boy to the U.S. in order to abuse the
teenage child. He was detained on Jan. 17, 2018, but not indicted until
months later following the conclusion of the Mueller probe.

Nader was
 formally
charged on July 3 of child pornography possession and travelling with a
minor for the purposes of committing illegal sex acts. He allegedly brought
the teenage boy to his U.S. home in 2000 where he committed the illegal
activity. He is pleading not guilty to the charges.

Investigators claim they found videos on Nader’s phone of children between
the ages of three and 14 being sexually abused. One video even showed
graphic bestiality, depicting a teenage child engaging in lewd acts with a
goat. 

Nader has a long history of being charged with child-related sexual
offenses. Nader was indicted on charges of child pornography back in 1984
while living in Washington D.C. He pleaded guilty in 1991 after being found
with illicit videos of young boys the previous year. He also served a year
in prison in the Czech Republic after being convicted of sexually abusing 10
underage boys.

Despite his history of abuse, Nader served as a trusted adviser for the
crown prince of the United Arab Emirates. He became a person of interest to
Mueller because he was instrumental in setting up Blackwater founder Erik
Prince’s meeting on the Seychelles islands with Kirill Dmitriev, the leader
of the Russian Direct Investment Fund.

He also met with Trump’s son-in-law and Senior Advisor Jared Kushner during
the presidential transition, and was closely associated with former
influential GOP fundraiser Elliot Broidy who is suspected of committing
money laundering and bribery offenses.

Nader is mentioned roughly 120 different times in Mueller’s special counsel
report after he was interviewed many times during the course of the
investigation. It is unknown whether Mueller exploited the possible charges
against Nader in an attempt to get the information Mueller wanted out of
him, but it ultimately did not save Nader from being indicted.

Mueller was not able to prove any Russian collusion despite the testimony of
this potentially jeopardized contact. The fact that Mueller used this serial
child sex predator as a linchpin of his case against President Trump says it
all about the cruel farce that was his overreaching witch hunt.

[Ugnet] END THE CAPITALISM SYSTEM TO GET EVERYTHING IN LIFE FOR FREE

2019-07-21 Thread Herrn Mulindwa Edward

Omar: End 'Capitalist System.' Guarantee Jobs, Housing, Medicare and
Abortion for All 




Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) (Photo by Mark Wilson/Getty Images)

 

In the new nation that Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota seeks to
create, the "capitalist system" will be left behind in pursuit of a "fair
and just economy" where the federal government guarantees everybody jobs,
housing, health care and free abortions.

How can we know this? She has declared it in writing.

Omar's campaign website includes a section called "Ilhan's Vision
 ." The agenda it presents contradicts
foundational American principles — particularly the rights to life and
property — that were spelt out in the Declaration of Independence and the
Constitution.

The declaration says that "all men are created equal" and "endowed by their
Creator with certain unalienable Rights."

The Fifth Amendment says, "No person shall be ... deprived of life, liberty,
or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken
for public use, without just compensation."

The 14th Amendment makes clear that the rights protected by the Fifth
Amendment apply to everyone and cannot be violated by the states. It says,
"nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property,
without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction
the equal protection of the laws."

In "Ilhan's Vision," a government that recognizes the right to private
property is an unjust government.

"The capitalist system has led to a concentration of wealth in a small
handful of elites while working people suffer," says Omar's vision
statement. "We must stop the exploitation of working people to create a fair
and just economy."

One policy she proposes to help move America away from the "capitalist
system" toward a "fair and just economy" is to have the federal government
guarantee everybody a job and a wage.

"A federal jobs guarantee would provide meaningful work to anybody who wants
it," says her vision statement. "The program would: Provide a wage of at
least $15 an hour, healthcare coverage, and benefits."

But this is only the start of Omar's vision for liberating America from the
"capitalist system."

She also proposes a program she calls "Homes for All." It is designed to
move America away from a "free market" in residential real estate toward
what Omar calls "publicly- and cooperatively-owned models of housing."

"Housing is a human right," Omar says in her vision statement. "However, the
free-market does not meet the needs of working families, while big banks and
for-profit developers continue to profit off of working communities."

Imagine that: In this country, for-profit homebuilders profit by providing
housing to people who earn money by working.

To stop this outrage, Omar says, "We need to move towards publicly- and
cooperatively-owned models of housing for all income-levels."

Does this mean House Speaker Nancy Pelosi or her descendants should someday
live in publicly or cooperatively owned housing? How about Senate Minority
Leader Chuck Schumer?

In the nation Omar envisions, a population that is guaranteed
government-funded jobs and is living in "publicly- and cooperatively-owned
models of housing" will also rely on a health care system controlled by the
central government.

"Ilhan will fight for Medicare for All, a single-payer healthcare system
that guarantees quality care for every American," says "Ilhan's Vision."

Under Omarcare, no one will pay anything for any health care service.

Her system would "Require no out-of-pocket costs for patients for any
services."

That would include the killing of unborn children.

"It is horrifying that we continue to fight for the right to seek an
abortion and access reproductive freedom," says "Ilhan's Vision." Her system
would "Provide abortion coverage and care regardless of income or
insurance."

How will Omar pay for her vision? By taking more of your income and
targeting family-owned businesses.

"Ilhan's Vision" will "Create a more progressive tax system by increasing
income tax for the wealthiest Americans."

It would also "Strengthen the estate tax to limit the amount of
inter-generational wealth that can be accumulated in the wealthiest
families."

Massive public stock corporations do not pay estate taxes. Family-owned
businesses do. The net effect is forcing families to sell their businesses
to public corporations to raise money to pay a tax imposed on the death of a
family member.

This death tax enriches big government and big business at the expense of
families.

It also helps illustrate how Omar's vision would turn the America Dream
upside down.

It would take money from parents who have worked hard and saved to build a
business they want to pass on to their children and give that money to
individuals who want to abort their children.

Who is more likely to lead America to a better tomorrow: Those who work to
build a family

2019-07-21 Thread Herrn Mulindwa Edward

Op-Ed: The term ‘people of color’ erases black people. Let’s retire it 


(Adriana Varejão / For The Times)

By Nadra Widatalla 

As a black woman, I seek out inclusive spaces because I lack them in my
everyday life. I don’t think I’ve ever unintentionally entered a space and
immediately felt like I was a part of the majority. I remember when I joined
my first women’s group. I went to one club meeting, and never returned. I
felt like every issue these women were struggling with affected me more
intensely because of my race. It wasn’t empowering, just depressing.

No one looked like me. I didn’t expect to be in a room filled with black
women, but I also didn’t think I’d be the only one. And while the others
went on about empowerment, sisterhood and freedom, I was met with, yet
again, a feeling I knew only I could understand. In a room full of women
discussing ways to be heard among men, ironically, I was grappling with how
to do just that in the room we were in.

I should have known better when I saw the group advertised as “women of
color-friendly.”

The terms “women of color” and “people of color” are meant to be inclusive.
But, from my perspective, they only help to leave black people behind —
specifically black women. While every minority group faces its own
challenges in America, a “one size fits all” mentality toward diversity
erases the specific needs of the most vulnerable communities.

Any effort that sees the struggles of all minorities as a single movement is
actually harmful.

Just look at the fashion industry. According to the Fashion Spot’s annual
“Diversity Report,  ”
one out of every three models in 2018 fashion ads were women of color. That
certainly sounds like progress. But editorials and magazine covers lean
heavily toward non-black women of color, and the terms non-white and women
of color are used repeatedly to bolster the analysis.

To see for myself, I picked up a random high-end fashion magazine. Out of
hundreds of models it had a total of 12 black women in it, admittedly better
than the one or two I was expecting. Looking closer, however, I noticed that
these women were either all extremely light-skinned, very dark-skinned or
highly established in their careers, like Lupita Nyong’o.

This was highly conditional inclusivity. Your everyday black girl was
missing.

While that’s perhaps not surprising for an industry that’s never been
particularly hospitable to everyday anyone, uncritical boasts about more
“women of color” in fashion are allowing an exclusionary industry to
rehabilitate its image without actually doing the work — at black women’s
expense. The industry gets to decide and control what type of black woman it
deems fit and more importantly, tolerable.

Nonwhite does not mean black. Women of color does not mean black either. Too
often, when a person or brand uses these descriptors, it papers over an
absence of black people. Bella and Gigi Hadid are among the nonwhite models
contributing to Fashion Spot’s misleading statistic. Though half-Palestinian
and half-white, both women racially pass as white.

The reality is that not all “people of color” suffer equally from the
effects of institutional racism. Black women are least likely to be promoted
and supported by their managers in the workplace.
  Police
kill unarmed black people at higher rates than other races, especially black
women
 . According to the Sentencing Project
 , black women represent roughly
14% of the female population of the United States, but 30% of all females
incarcerated. Black children are also almost 9 times more likely than white
children to have a parent in prison while Hispanic children are three times
more likely. Research also suggests that black women are more likely to be
publicly objectified, harassed and dehumanized.

Meanwhile, in 2016, Asians were the highest-earning racial and ethnic group
in the U.S. The median annual income
  for Asian
adults was $51,288, compared with $47,958 for whites and $31,082 for blacks.

Of course, Asians aren’t a homogeneous block, and not all of them are
thriving. For example, in Los Angeles County, elderly Korean and Cambodians
are more likely to live in poverty
  and without access to healthcare than any other racial
or ethnic group. This further emphasizes the limitations of blanket
terminology and racial generalities, which can hamper the ability to
identity the specific problems facing specific

You Can Disagree With His Language, but Trump Is Right About 'The Squad' 


| Opinion


Charlie Kirk , Founder and Executive Director, Turning Point USA 
On 7/19/19 at 1:21 PM EDT 

 

The last few days of the American "news cycle" have been consumed by the
heated back and forth between President Donald Trump and the Marxist-leaning
"Gang of Four" Congresswomen Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ayanna Pressley,
Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar. I use quotes because we really don't have news
cycles in America anymore. We have rounds of orchestrated Trump-bashing by
media and activists.

This latest "cycle" involves the president confronting the four freshman
congresswomen, none of whom appear to embrace any love of the American
Constitution, free markets or individual liberty. He then completely
redirected the entirety of the mainstream news media by way of the following
three-part tweet
 :

So interesting to see "Progressive" Democrat Congresswomen, who originally
came from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe,
the worst, most corrupt and inept anywhere in the world (if they even have a
functioning government at all), now loudly...

...and viciously telling the people of the United States, the greatest and
most powerful Nation on earth, how our government is to be run. Why don't
they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from
which they came. Then come back and show us how

it is done. These places need your help badly, you can't leave fast
enough. I'm sure that Nancy Pelosi would be very happy to quickly work out
free travel arrangements!

The outcry from all of the usual suspects was swift and deafening. While
there is no such thing as a political seismic meter, if there were, it might
well have registered among the highest readings of the Trump presidential
run since it began in 2015. To borrow a word from President Barack Obama—who
was responding to then–Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's actually racist
comments

about the then–presidential candidate's skin tone and dialect—regardless of
how "inartful" Trump's phraseology may have been, his point was clearly
made, and he was right on target as usual.

Since these women have taken office, they have effectively used their
intersectional identities as shelter from very deserved criticism. Trump is
not criticizing these congresswomen because they are women of color; he's
criticizing the ideas they espouse. They express the most outrageous
statements of hatred against America, Israel and the president, all while
raising the shield of racism against refutations of their destructive ideas.

Ocasio-Cortez is an openly declared socialist. I won't mince words here: All
those who say that they are socialists, while they may or may not be decent
people and well-intentioned, are expressing an open hatred and hostility
toward the United States of America.

Washington Times - Friday, July 19, 2019

The Justice Department announced that more than 3,000 inmates are being
released Friday from custody after their sentences were reduced for good
conduct under the First Step Act.

Some of the inmates were still in prison, while others were at halfway
houses across the country.

The department also noted it’s fully funded the law for the rest of the
year, which President Trump signed in 2018, aiming to rehabilitate inmates
to go back into their communities and avoid reoffending.

“Our communities are safer when we do a better job of rehabilitating
offenders in our custody and preparing them for a successful transition to
life after incarceration,” said Attorney General William P. Barr.

“The Department is committed to and has been working towards full
implementation of the First Step Act, which will help us effectively deploy
resources to help reduce risk, recidivism, and crime,” he added.

Out of the about 3,100 inmates released, the largest number were drug
offenders with the second-largest group having committed weapons crimes. The
third group were sex offenders.

“There’s a very wide range of people who are being released. There are
actually some national security, some robbery, offenses against the court —
so it’s a broad spectrum of the BOP population,” said Toni Bacon, associate
deputy attorney general.

Kevin Ring, president of FAMM, an advocacy group promoting criminal justice
reform, said he’s happy these individuals will get to go back to their loved
ones a few weeks or months early.

“Every day of freedom is important. The good time credit will benefit more
than 150,000 people in federal prison today and many more going forward,”
Mr. Ring said.

Barr probe sets up showdown between Obama intelligence chiefs, dissenters

By   Rowan
Scarborough - The Washington Times - Thursday, July 18, 2019

Attorney General  
William Barr’s review of the Obama-era conclusion that
 Russia interfered in the
election to help  
Donald Trump sets up a struggle between the nation’s top spies and
 Mr. Trump’s skeptical
Republican allies.

 

On one side are President
 Trump’s past two
 CIA directors and his current chief of national intelligence. All
have publicly endorsed the January 2017 intelligence community assessment
that Russian President
 Vladimir Putin
interfered to help  
Mr. Trump and hurt
 Hillary Clinton.

 

But there are dissenters, and they are close to the White House.

  Rep. Devin Nunes of
California, the ranking Republican on the

House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, issued a report last year
that found no Russian-
 Trump conspiracy.
Special counsel Robert Mueller confirmed the finding in March.

  Mr. Nunes made a less
noticed finding. He said intelligence chiefs violated good tradecraft by
writing the assessment section on
 Mr. Putin’s
intentions. What’s more, Fred Fleitz, who served inside the White House as
National Security Adviser John R. Bolton’s chief of staff, has written a
series of columns casting doubt on the section about
 Mr. Putin’s role in
the election.

 

Mr. Fleitz is being considered as a possible replacement for Director of
National Intelligence Daniel Coats, whose job is in jeopardy because of
testimony this year on North Korea, a White House adviser told The
Washington Times.

Mr. Coats reportedly angered the president by telling
 Congress that U.S.
intelligence agencies don’t believe North Korean leader Kim Jong-un will
give up his nuclear weapons, despite the president’s groundbreaking
diplomatic outreach to Pyongyang and its leader. He gave the Senate
testimony on the eve of
 Mr. Trump’s second
summit with Mr. Kim in Vietnam in February.

 

Axios first reported this month on Mr. Coats’ shaky status, and Mr. Fleitz
has been interviewed in the Oval Office by
 Mr. Trump and Chief
of Staff Mick Mulvaney.

  Mr. Trump has always
bristled at the intelligence community findings that
 Mr. Putin helped
him win the presidency.

 

The assessment came from two Obama loyalists who have since become
 Mr. Trump’s most
ardent critics on CNN and MSNBC: former
 CIA Director John O. Brennan and former Director of National
Intelligence James R. Clapper. Also signing off was another fierce
 Trump critic, then-

FBI Director James B. Comey.

 

Mr. Brennan and Mr. Clapper have accused the president of being an agent for
 Russia. The Mueller report,
which looked at “any links” between
 Trump allies and
Russians, made no mention of
 Trump connections to
the Kremlin as some kind of operative.

Former intelligence officials told The Times that

determine whether there was any political influence to skew the conclusions

[Ugnet] FBI'S SPREADSHEET PUTS A STAKE THROUGH THE HEART OF STEELE'S DOSSIER

FBI's spreadsheet puts a stake through the heart of Steele's dossier

By John Solomon, opinion contributor — 07/17/19 07:00 PM EDT 

Some in the news media have tried in recent days to rekindle their long-lost
love affair with former MI6 agent
 Christopher Steele and his
now
 infamous dossier.

The main trigger was a lengthy interview in June with the Department of
Justice (DOJ) inspector general, which
 some news
outlets suggested meant U.S. officials have found Steele, the former Hillary
Clinton-backed political muckraker, to be believable. 

“Investigators ultimately found Steele’s testimony credible and even
surprising,”
 Politico crowed. The Washington Post
 went even further,
suggesting Steele’s assistance to the inspector general might “undermine
Trumpworld’s alt-narrative” that the Russia-collusion investigation was
flawed.

For sure, Steele may have valuable information to aid Justice’s internal
affairs probe into misconduct during the 2016 Russia election probe. His
dossier alleging a conspiracy between the Trump campaign and Moscow
ultimately   was disproven, but
not before his intelligence was used to secure a surveillance warrant
targeting the Trump campaign in the final days of the 2016 election.  

Investigators are trying to ascertain what the British intelligence
operative told the FBI about his sources, his relation to the Democratic
Party and Clinton campaign, his hatred for
 Donald Trump, his
 Election Day deadline to get
his information public and his leaking to media outlets before agents used
his dossier to justify a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA)
warrant to spy on ex-Trump campaign adviser
 Carter Page.

There is evidence Steele told the DOJ in July, and the State Department in
October, about all of these flaws in his work, and that State officials even
detected blatant inaccuracies in his intelligence. If so, all of that
information should have been flagged by the FBI as potentially derogatory
information weighing against Steele’s use as a source for the FISA warrant.

But lest anyone be tempted to think Steele’s 2016 dossier is about to be
mysteriously revived as credible, consider this: Over months of work, FBI
agents painstakingly researched every claim Steele made about Trump’s
possible collusion with Russia, and assembled their findings into a
spreadsheet-like document.

The over-under isn’t flattering to Steele.

Multiple sources familiar with the FBI spreadsheet tell me the vast majority
of Steele’s claims were deemed to be wrong, or could not be corroborated
even with the most awesome tools available to the U.S. intelligence
community. One source estimated the spreadsheet found upward of 90 percent
of the dossier’s claims to be either wrong, nonverifiable or open-source
intelligence found with a Google search.

In other words, it was mostly useless.

“The spreadsheet was a sea of blanks, meaning most claims couldn’t be
corroborated, and those things that were found in classified intelligence
suggested Steele’s intelligence was partly or totally inaccurate on several
claims,” one source told me.

The FBI declined comment when asked about the spreadsheet.

The FBI’s final assessment was driven by many findings contained in
classified footnotes at the bottom of the spreadsheet. But it was also
informed by an agent’s interview, in early 2017, with a Russian that Steele
claimed was one of his main providers of intelligence, according to my
sources.

The FBI came to suspect that the Russian misled Steele, either intentionally
or through exaggeration, the sources said.

The spreadsheet and a subsequent report by special prosecutor
 Robert Mueller show just how far
off the seminal claims in the Steele dossier turned out to be.

For example, U.S. intelligence found no evidence that Carter Page, during a
trip to Moscow in July 2016, secretly met with two associates of
 Vladimir Putin Igor Sechin and
senior government official Igor Divyekin — as part of the effort to collude
with the Trump campaign, as Steele reported.

Page did meet with a lower-level Rosneft official, and shook hands with a
Russian deputy prime minister, the FBI found, but it was a far cry from 

[Ugnet] DEMOCRATS TO INTRODUCE RESOLUTION DECLARING SUPPORT FOR ANTI-ISRAEL MOVEMENT

2019-07-18 Thread Herrn Mulindwa Edward
Omar to Introduce Resolution Declaring Support for Anti-Israel BDS Movement

 

Jack Crowe

 

July 17, 2019

Representative Ilhan Omar (D., Minn.) will introduce a resolution this week
declaring support for the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement,
which seeks to elevate the Palestinian negotiating position vis-a-vis Israel
through an international pressure campaign.

“We are introducing a resolution . . . to really speak about the American
values that support and believe in our ability to exercise our first
amendment rights in regard to boycotting,” Omar
 told Al-Monitor. “And it is an opportunity for us
to explain why it is we support a nonviolent movement, which is the BDS
movement.”

The announcement comes on the same day that the House Foreign Affairs
Committee, on which Omar sits, plans to vote on another
 non-binding resolution explicitly condemning the BDS
movement as an attempt to “undermine the two state solution” by demanding
“concessions of one party alone and encourag[ing] Palestinians to reject
negotiations in favor of international pressure.”

The anti-BDS resolution further notes that the movement’s founder, Omar
Bharghouti, has openly dismissed the possibility of reaching any settlement
that allows the state of Israel to retain its sovereignty.

Omar is expected to cast the lone vote against the anti-BDS resolution,
further highlighting the divide between herself and the panel’s older,
more-established lawmakers, who have condemned her comments about Israel in
the past.

Representative Elliot Engel (D., N.Y.), the committee’s chairman, accused
Omar of “invoking a vile, anti-Semitic slur” earlier this year
 after she suggested that
pro-Israel American lawmakers’ loyalty to the country was suspect. However,
he resisted Republican calls to remove Omar from the panel in the wake of
her comments.

The House also passed a non-binding resolution in March condemning
anti-Semitism and Islamophobia in response to Omar’s suggestions that
support for Israel was “all about the Benjamins.”

Omar told CBS News’s Gayle King this week that she doesn’t regret the words
she used to cast support for Israel as primarily the product of the Israel
lobby’s financial influence.

“So you don’t regret your words either?” King asked.

“I do not. But I have gotten the — I am grateful for the opportunity to
really learn how my words make people feel and have taken every single
opportunity I’ve gotten to make sure that people understood that I apologize
for it,” Omar responded.

[Ugnet] REPUBLICAN SUPPORT FOR TRUMP RISES AFTER RACIALLY CHARGED TWEETS

Republican support for Trump rises after racially charged tweets:
Reuters/Ipsos poll


Chris Kahn  

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Support for U.S. President Donald Trump increased
slightly among Republicans after he lashed out on Twitter over the weekend
in a racially charged attack on four minority Democratic congresswomen, a
Reuters/Ipsos public opinion poll shows.

the White House in Washington, U.S., July 16, 2019. REUTERS/Leah Millis/File

The national survey, conducted on Monday and Tuesday after Trump told the
lawmakers they should “go back and help fix the totally broken and crime
infested places from which they came,” showed his net approval among members
of his Republican Party rose by 5 percentage points to 72%, compared with a
similar poll that ran last week. 

Trump, who is seeking re-election next year, has lost support, however, with
Democrats and independents since the Sunday tweetstorm. 

Among independents, about three out of 10 said they approved of Trump, down
from four out of 10 a week ago. His net approval - the percentage who
approve minus the percentage who disapprove - dropped by 2 points among
Democrats in the poll. 

Trump’s overall approval remained unchanged over the past week. According to
the poll, 41% of the U.S. public said they approved of his performance in
office, while 55% disapproved. 

The results showed strong Republican backing for Trump as the Democratic-led
U.S. House of Representatives passed a symbolic resolution on Tuesday,
largely along party lines, to condemn him for “racist comments” against the
four Democratic lawmakers.. 

All four U.S. representatives - Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Ilhan
Omar of Minnesota, Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts and Rashida Tlaib of
Michigan - are U.S. citizens. Three were born in the United States. 

The public response to Trump’s statements appeared to be a little better for
him than in 2017, after the president said there were “very fine people” on
both sides of a deadly white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.


In that instance, Trump’s net approval dropped by about 10 points a week
after the Charlottesville rally. 

This time, while Democrats and some independents may see clear signs of
racial intolerance woven throughout Trump’s tweets, Republicans are hearing
a different message, said Vincent Hutchings, a political science and
African-American studies professor at the University of Michigan. 

“To Republicans, Trump is simply saying: ‘Hey, if you don’t like America,
you can leave,” Hutchings said. “That is not at all controversial. If you
already support Trump, then it’s very easy to interpret his comments that
way.” 

By criticizing liberal members of the House, Trump is “doing exactly what
Republicans want him to do,” Hutchings said. “He’s taking on groups that
they oppose.” 

The Reuters/Ipsos poll was conducted online in English and gathered
responses from 1,113 adults, including 478 Democrats and 406 Republicans in
the United States. It has a credibility interval, a measure of precision, of
3 percentage points for the entire group and 5 points for Democrats or
Republicans.

Ilhan Omar and Barack Obama 


Ilhan Omar Slams ‘Pretty Face’ Barack Obama Who Got ‘Away with Murder’


Young Democrat took swings at the former president — and she isn't a fan of
his 'hope and change' slogan, either 


Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) unexpectedly trashed former President Barack Obama
as someone with a “pretty face” who got “away with murder” during a
wide-ranging interview with Politico Magazine published Friday.

Omar (pictured above right) is one of the first two Muslim women to serve in
Congress. She’s also the first Somali-American in Congress.

The lawmaker has had a rocky two months in Congress thus far. She came under
fire last week for her latest round of comments that many Americans widely
deemed as anti-Semitic. The House ultimately passed a resolution on Thursday
condemning all hatred and bigotry.

The resolution originally was supposed to condemn anti-Semitism in response
to the Omar controversy. Democrats caved and broadened the resolution after
some vocal progressives defended Omar and said she’d been unfairly targeted.

But before this controversy even broke, Omar gave an interview with Politico
Magazine’s Tim Alberta that was published on Friday.

In the interview, Omar bashed her own party — accusing it of becoming
“complicit in perpetuating the status quo,” according to Alberta.

Omar also knocked Obama — an unusual move from a Democrat. The former
president is widely beloved among Democrats and remains popular with those
on the Left.

Yet Omar criticized Obama’s iconic calls for “hope and change,” saying those
calls were inconsistent with his administration’s actual policies.

“I’m OK with taking the blows if it means it will ignite conversations that
no one was willing to have before.”

“Recalling the ‘caging of kids’ at the U.S.-Mexico border and the ‘droning
of countries around the world’ on Obama’s watch, she argues that the
Democratic president operated within the same fundamentally broken framework
as his Republican successor,” Alberta noted.

Omar told Alberta
 , “We can’t be only upset with
[President Donald] Trump.”

“His policies are bad, but many of the people who came before him also had
really bad policies. They just were more polished than he was,” Omar said.
“And that’s not what we should be looking for anymore. We don’t want anybody
to get away with murder because they are polished. We want to recognize the
actual policies that are behind the pretty face and the smile.”

Democrats began decrying the use of “cages” to hold illegal immigrant
children in detention after Trump became president.

None of the Democrats, however, seemed concerned when the Obama
administration used these same enclosures to detain illegal immigrant
children temporarily until they could be placed with sponsors.

Omar also said in the interview that she looks forward to continuing “to
agitate our foreign policy discussions in a way that many of my colleagues
who have been anti-intervention, anti-war, have been unable to do in the
past.”

“So, I’m OK with taking the blows if it means it will ignite conversations
that no one was willing to have before,” Omar insisted.

Reporter 

July 11, 20196:27 PM ET 

The Justice Department’s office of the inspector general has conducted more
than 100 interviews and reviewed over 1 million records as part of its
investigation of the FBI’s use of the FISA process to surveil the Trump
campaign, according to a letter obtained by The Daily Caller News
Foundation.

In a letter sent to four congressional committees on June 25, Michael
Horowitz, the inspector general, said that investigators have made
“substantial progress” in the probe, and that “our investigative work is
nearing completion.”

“[W]e have been in the process of drafting our report for some time,” he
wrote, adding that investigators “have been pursuing opportunities to meet
with additional witnesses to ensure that our review is thorough and
complete.”

On March 28, 2018, Horowitz began investigating
  whether the FBI complied with legal requirements in
obtaining surveillance warrants against Carter Page, a former Trump campaign
adviser. The bureau relied heavily on the infamous and unverified Steele
dossier in its applications for the warrants, which were issued under the
Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). (RELATED: Christopher Steele
Worried He

’ll Be ‘Thrown Under The Bus’)

Republicans have accused the FBI of withholding key details about Steele and
the dossier in its FISA applications, the first of which was approved on
Oct. 21, 2016.

One of the OIG’s most recent interviews was with dossier author Christopher
Steele
 .
According to reports published on Tuesday, three attorneys with Horowitz’s
office interviewed the former British spy in London in early June.

Horowitz said in his letter that the investigation has been “complicated” by
classification issues regarding information obtained in the investigation,
was well as the fact that many of its witnesses no longer work in
government.

The letter confirms what Texas Rep. John Ratcliffe
  said in a Fox News interview on July 1. The Republican said that he
Horowitz told him a week earlier that the investigation was complete and
that a report was being drafted.

“When our draft report is finished, we will follow our usual process to
ensure the accuracy, completeness, and appropriate classification of the
report. We will update your Committees on our timing and our estimate for
completing and issuing a final report when we are able to do so,” Horowitz
wrote, adding that he anticipates being able to provide an update “in the
coming weeks.”

Democrats' opposition research got exposed — this time, not by the Russians

By John Solomon, opinion contributor — 07/11/19 04:30 PM EDT

When the Russians
 hacked the Democratic National
Committee in summer 2016, one of the crown jewels obtained by Vladimir
Putin’s team was the party’s opposition research files on then-GOP candidate
Donald Trump.

It was quite a blow to the DNC, because political parties usually guard
their research zealously, hoping to use it with the news media and political
commercials to help ding their political rivals without leaving
fingerprints.

But the Democratic Party committee that helps elects candidates to U.S.
House seats has exposed scores of its own opposition research files on GOP
candidates, past and present, on the internet. They just aren’t easy to
find.

Those Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) files aren’t on web
addresses tied to its official domain,  
https://dccc.org/. Instead, the research files appear under such arcane URLs
as

http://2vmhfw1isbe32j3tgn3epw3x-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com/. To find these
jewels, someone would have to know that cryptic address, or be willing to
scroll through multiple screens of a Google search before it showed up.

Why is this the case?

The DCCC insists it isn’t another hack, nor was it an accidental publishing
of secret files — that it didn’t make a security mistake. Instead, a senior
DCCC official told me it was “an intentional publishing of materials that
aren’t being publicized right now.” 

In other words, the DCCC posted some of its most valuable opposition
research in a way that isn’t exactly accessible unless you know where to
look.

“Sometimes we publish research and polling so it can be helpful,” the
official explained.

To Democratic candidates? I asked.

“Yes,” but then the official immediately clarified: “We take our obligation
to avoid improper coordination very seriously.” 

All this might sound like political gobbledygook to the average reader.

But actually it provides a window into how political parties
 craftily perform an end run around federal campaign laws that
limit how much parties can contribute to support candidates directly. Those
laws also outlaw coordination between candidates and their supporters.

The recently finished   report
by special counsel   Robert
Mueller, who found no 2016 election collusion between the Trump campaign and
Russia, provides insight on how opposition research files might run afoul of
illegal coordination or contribution limits.

 
 Mueller’s
analysis of election statutes concluded there is a legal basis to believe
that “candidate-related opposition research given to a campaign for the
purpose of influencing an election could constitute a contribution” subject
to federal donation limits and bans on coordination.

“A campaign can be assisted not only by the provision of funds, but also by
the provision of derogatory information about an opponent,” Mueller wrote. 

In other words, the DCCC — or any other party’s committees, for that matter
— could run afoul of federal campaign limits and coordination bans if it
privately gave its expensive opposition research directly to candidates.

So the DCCC and some of its GOP counterparts have invented a workaround.

They publish opposition research reports they think can help their
candidates on obscure web addresses, where their candidates can download
them and most voters and Republican rivals are unlikely to see them. 

Party lawyers have concluded the candidates can make use of the research
without claiming they were “contributions” or “coordinated expenditures”
under federal election law because they were posted on a technically public
— albeit little-noticed — website visible in a Google search, according to
sources. 

Republicans and Democrats alike do it, my sources added.

During the last election, the DCCC posted its Republican attack documents
for a while at   https://www.dccc.org/races, a
place where Democratic candidates knew to look but that wasn’t well
publicized to the public. After the election, the opposition files dropped
off the link.

But the raw documents remained visible in a Google search, thanks to that
obscure server address.

Impeachment push freezes as Mueller testimony looms

  kakku 

The steady drumbeat among House Democrats for impeachment proceedings
against President Donald Trump has gone silent. And Robert Mueller is to
blame.

The last lawmaker to publicly embrace an impeachment inquiry came forward on
June 28, just three days after it was announced that the former special
counsel would deliver hotly anticipated testimony, ending a weekslong
trickle that put a third of House Democrats in favor of the effort.

In interviews, the most prominent House advocates for impeachment
proceedings acknowledged the push had slowed to a standstill. But they said
they’re optimistic Mueller’s appearance — no matter how understated or
scripted — could shake loose dozens of their colleagues and bring the House
closer to an impeachment inquiry.

“I think they’re waiting for Mueller,” Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) said.

Though Mueller’s Wednesday testimony before the Judiciary and Intelligence
committees may move more Democrats into the impeachment camp, some doubt has
begun to surface among impeachment advocates that he’ll provide the dramatic
testimony necessary to fuel a tidal wave of support or persuade Speaker
Nancy Pelosi to drop her long-held opposition to impeachment.

“I think it’s likely to be little more than a book on tape, where he simply
recites portions of the report that he wrote and refuses to go beyond the
four corners of that report,” said Rep. Jared Huffman (D-Calif.), who
supports launching an impeachment inquiry.

Huffman emphasized that if Mueller sticks to the limited recitation of
publicly known facts from his report, lawmakers will be faced with the same
tough decision on impeachment they faced before.

“So we’re still, at the end of this, essentially where we are now,” Huffman
said. “We have to decide what to do with all of this really incriminating
information.”

How the hearing will unfold remains unclear.

Mueller has agreed to testify for roughly four hours, split between the
Judiciary and Intelligence committees. While the Intelligence panel is small
enough that every member likely will be able to ask questions, the much
larger Judiciary Committee presents issues.

For instance, Democrats must decide whether every member of the panel will
get to question Mueller and, if so, for how long. Some lawmakers have
suggested the Judiciary Committee could deviate from its traditional five
minutes apiece to allow all 41 lawmakers a chance to speak — but others
prefer to stick to five minutes each, even if more junior members get shut
out.

The panel will also have to determine how to handle follow-ups if Mueller
declines to provide a complete answer or dodges a question. And Democrats
may have to deal with difficult Republicans, who could deploy procedural
votes to try to adjourn the hearing or spend time trying to ask Mueller
their own follow-ups.

It’s unclear whether the committee will be able to pause or extend the
two-hour window for any unexpected delays or whether potentially lengthy
opening statements will count.

“The timing of it is a bit of a straitjacket, so we’re going to have to
squeeze a lot into a very short period of time,” Rep. Jamie Raskin Raskin
(D-Md.) said.

Rep. Val Demings (D-Fla.), who is likely to get two chances to question
Mueller as a member of both the Judiciary and Intelligence committees, added
that Mueller’s testimony is “just one more piece of the puzzle” and said
Democrats must continue pursuing testimony from other key witnesses.

Democrats are also bracing for the real possibility that Attorney General
William Barr could blow up the entire event.

Barr has signaled he intends to block congressional efforts to force
Mueller’s deputies to testify, and he also said the Justice Department would
support Mueller if the former special counsel decided to skip the hearings
altogether.

For now, the hearing is on track, according to the chairmen of the
Intelligence and Judiciary panels, Reps. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) and Jerry
Nadler (D-N.Y.), respectively.

A serious effort by Barr to block or discourage Mueller and his deputies
from testifying could supercharge impeachment efforts, some lawmakers said,
especially as Democrats become more frustrated with the Trump
administration’s efforts to stonewall their myriad inquiries.

“I think that that would have a catalyzing impact,” said Raskin, a member of
the Judiciary Committee. “The stonewalling right now is already
unprecedented. The GOP is in full cover-up mode. And our caucus is already
up in arms about it, but it would be an explosive situation politically if
they kept Mueller from coming.”

Another open question about Mueller’s testimony is whether the White House
will seek to prevent Mueller from answering certain questions — in
particular, lawmakers’ inquiries about his interactions with Barr and his
reported disagreements with Barr’s rollout of the special counsel’s report.

Democrats acknowledge questioning Mueller ‘will not be easy’

Robert Mueller speaks at the Department of Justice in Washington, about the
Russia investigation. To prepare for next week's high stakes hearing with
Mueller, some Democratic members and staff are watching old video of his
previous testimony. Others are closely re-reading Mueller's 448-page report.
And most of them are worrying about how they'll make the most their short
time in front of the stern, reticent former FBI director. 

WASHINGTON - Some are watching old video of his previous testimony. Others
are closely re-reading his 448-page report. And almost all are worrying
about how they’ll make the most of the short time they’ll have for
questioning.

Robert Mueller, the Democrats know, will be tough to crack.

The stern, reticent former FBI director has said he won’t answer questions
beyond what is in the report on Russia’s election meddling and the Trump
campaign and possible obstruction of justice when he comes to Congress on
July 17.

Mueller is expected to testify in front of the Judiciary and intelligence
committees for two hours each, with time split evenly between Republicans
and Democrats, though that timing is still a subject of negotiations. That
means Democrats will have to be efficient and targeted in their attempts to
extract information from the former special counsel and spotlight what they
say are his most damaging findings against President Donald Trump.

“It will not be easy,” said Rhode Island Rep. David Cicilline, a Democratic
member of the Judiciary Committee. He added: “We just have to be very smart
about how we use the time and really give the special counsel the time to
tell the story.”

Cicilline says he’s reading the report a second time, thoroughly, with an
eye toward what he wants to ask.

Separately, a Democratic aide said staff members have been watching old
videos of Mueller testifying as FBI director during the administrations of
Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama. They’re looking to see how he’ll
act, the aide said, and they have noticed he gives minimal commentary when
answering questions. The aide was not authorized to discuss internal
preparations for the hearing and requested anonymity.

Wary of their challenging witness, Democratic members of the Judiciary
Committee huddled Wednesday evening to discuss strategy for questioning
Mueller, along with other topics. Exactly how the hearing will be structured
is still being negotiated, members said as they emerged, but Democrats are
expected to divvy up the questions in a methodical way.

Among the topics up for discussion as the hearing approaches: Should they
work through the report step by step, or paint a general picture? Will every
member be able to speak in the short time they have? And what can they do to
best crystalize the findings of a report that they believe Americans haven’t
read or absorbed?

New York Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, a member of the panel, said before the
meeting that he expects to discuss “what the team strategy is going to be as
we begin an intensive phase of preparation.”

Republicans seem to have given it less thought. Ohio Rep. Steve Chabot, a
senior GOP member of Judiciary, said he hasn’t started preparing and expects
little news from the event. He said Democrats are just “chasing their tails”
and are aiming to placate base voters who want to see the Democratic House
majority take on the president.

“It’s possible a few people could change their opinion, but overall I think
it’s not likely,” Chabot said.

The Judiciary Committee is expected to focus on the second half of Mueller’s
report, which details multiple episodes in which Trump attempted to
influence the investigation. Mueller said he couldn’t exonerate the
president on obstruction of justice.

The House’s intelligence panel, which will go second, will focus on the
first half of the report, which details Russian interference in the
presidential election. Mueller said there wasn’t enough evidence to
establish a conspiracy between Russia and the Trump campaign but detailed
several contacts between the two as well as the Trump campaign’s willingness
to accept Russian help.

Under a deal struck with the committees, two of Mueller’s deputies — James
Quarles and Aaron Zebley — are expected to meet with the panels in separate
closed sessions after Mueller’s public hearing. But that might be in
jeopardy as the Justice Department has pushed back on the arrangement,
according to two people familiar with the negotiations. They requested
anonymity to discuss the private talks.

The chairman of the intelligence panel, Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., said
Tuesday said he wouldn’t discuss the details of those negotiations, but that
the deputies have agreed to appear and “I have no reason to believe that
will be unsuccessful.”

Michael Flynn’s New Brief Shines Sunlight On Prosecutor’s Tactics

By

  Sara Carter

-

July 9, 2019



The defense team for former National Security Advisor
 Michael T. Flynn has submitted a filing to the Eastern
District of Virginia fighting the government’s most recent proposal to ask
the Court to deem Flynn a “co-conspirator” in the case against his former
partner. The designation is solely for the purpose of obtaining the
admission of one document the government itself claims is already admissible
under a different rule, according to a brief filed by Flynn’s defense team.

The substantial briefing was filed in just the last few days in the case the
government filed against Bijan Rafiekian, Flynn’s former consulting firm
partner. It was only unsealed Tuesday. Flynn’s own filing is the most
recent—after just receiving the government’s filing at 9 pm last night.

The evidence collected by Flynn’s current defense Attorney Sidney Powell,
who recently replaced Flynn’s former defense attorney Robert Kelner, sheds
new light on the

extraordinary tactics used to target and retaliate against Flynn, according
to the filing.

Further, Powell’s submission to the court also reveals that Flynn and his
attorneys were under extreme pressure to file a Foreign Agents Registration
Act in February, 2017 by David Laufman, the former head of the National
Security Division. 

 

Flynn was forced to file his FARA registration in February 2017, “under
extreme and unprecedented pressure from extensive interactions with the
National Security Division including then- NSD head David Laufman.” Laufman
resigned shortly after on Feb. 8, 2017, during DOJ Inspector General Michael
Horowitz’s investigation into the FBI’s probe of Hillary Clinton’s use of a
private server to send classified emails.

Further, Flynn’s former counsel had advised prosecutors that “Mr. Flynn did
not know and did not authorize signing the FARA form believing there is
anything wrong in it. He honesty answered the questions his former counsel
posed to him to the best of his recollection, and some with the benefit of
hindsight.”

The government’s case against Rafiekian, 66, and Kamil Ekim Alptekin, 41, a
Turkish national, involve Flynn’s former security firm Flynn Intel Group.
Rafiekian, who goes by the last name Kian, and Alptekin were indicted
December, 2018, on conspiracy, and acting in the United States as illegal
agents of the government of Turkey. Notably that indictment came just in
time to provide any encouragement Flynn might have needed to cement his
guilty plea in Judge Emmet Sullivan’s court.


The pair were also charged with making false statements to the FBI,
according to the Department of Justice. According to the charges, Rafiekian,
is charged with “conspiracy and acting in the United States as an illegal
agent of the government of Turkey.” Basically, they are charging Kian with
violating the Foreign Agents Registration Act, which is rarely prosecuted.
According to Ms. Powell’s brief, the government has recently been insistent
that Flynn admit that he knowingly and intentionally allowed FARA documents
to filed on behalf of his former security firm Flynn Intel Group by his
former counsel at Covington and Burling.

“The prosecutors have been adamant that Mr. Flynn testify that he authorized
the filing of the FARA form knowing and intending that it contained false
statements. Mr. Flynn cannot give that testimony because it is not true.”

Flynn, who has been cooperating with the government throughout its
investigation, has given hundreds of hours of interviews and information at
great personal expense in time, travel and attorneys fees. Still, the
government prosecutor, Evan Turgeon, was not satisfied, according to the
defense filing. So much so, that the prosecutors re-interviewed Flynn’s
former attorney Kelner about the FARA filing. 

“The prosecutors have been adamant that Mr. Flynn testify that he authorized
the filing of the FARA form knowing and intending that it contained false
statements,” the defense filing states. “Mr. Flynn cannot give that
testimony because it is not true.”

Flynn’s former counsel, Kelner, admitted they had to make difficult
judgement calls regarding the filing because of the extreme pressure and
they did so with the advice of the National Security Division, the filing
states.

However, during trial on June 28, Judge Anthony Trenga, who is presiding
over the case against Kian, pressed prosecutors nearly half a dozen times to
explain what laws were violated, regarding an op-ed that was published by
the firm and the issue of lobbying.

“That’s what I’m having trouble understanding here,” the judge said,
 as reported by

Few days ago I posted a piece stating that new witnesses had come out in the
11th hour of the Inspector General investigation. This is what we know now,
as the Department of Justice inspector General started to wind up his report
and make it public, Christopher Steele, the former British spy behind the
infamous “dossier” on President Donald Trump’s ties to Russia, ended up
agreeing to be interviewed by The Inspector General. Thus late in June the
Department of Justice dispatched its lawyers into United Kingdom to
interview him.

 

We know that Christopher Steele was grilled for 16 straight hours, and we
know that his answers failed to match with what the IG had got from the
witnesses he had interviewed in United States. We also know that on the
lawyers return to United States, the IG decided to recall the witnesses that
he had interviewed before to be re-interviewed so that their evidence can be
compared with what Christopher Steele stated.

 

The report of the IG is on hold until when this evidence has been cross
checked.

New dossier deepens Trump's suspicions about America's top ally

Scarborough - The Washington Times - Tuesday, July 10, 2019

 

Now there are two British-produced anti-
 Trump dossiers,
deepening the president’s suspicions about the U.S.-U.K. “special
relationship.”

First came  
Christoper Steele, a former British spy who maintains close contacts with
his country’s Secret Intelligence Service. In 2016, from his
 London offices,
 Mr. Steele
churned out 17 allegation-filled memos at the request of his Democratic
Party handlers.

 

A second dossier, written by
 London’s top man in
Washington,   Kim
Darroch, appeared this week in the Daily Mail. Like the Steele papers, the
Darroch dossier has been written in segments and is filled with anti-
 Trump vitriol.

Even before the extraordinary disclosures, President
 Trump was deeply
suspicious of the British government’s role in investigating him and his
allies about Russian interference in the 2016 election.

 

Sourced to shadowy Kremlin figures, the Steele dossier told a tale of deep
and widespread conspiracy between
 Mr. Trump and the
Kremlin. The document, coming as it did from someone connected to British
intelligence, gained wide acceptance inside the Obama administration’s
Justice Department.
 Mr. Steele and
his Moscow sources made a dozen major allegations against
 Mr. Trump. All were
proved untrue with special counsel Robert Mueller’s March report on Russian
election interference.

 

  Mr. Steele
shared his gossip with MI6 headquarters, raising questions about whether
 London’s top spies believe
his criminal charges against
 Mr. Trump and whether
they spread the material among the U.K. Cabinet.

Now comes British dossier No. 2.
 Mr. Darroch’s two
years of secret cables went straight to the Foreign Office, where they were
likely distributed to the seats of power, including No. 10 Downing St.

 

To what degree they poisoned
 Mr. Trump’s
connections to Prime Minister Theresa May’s government may be told one day.

Like the publication of the Steele dossier in January 2017 by BuzzFeed, the
debut of the Darroch dossier had immediate impact.

 

  Mr. Trump went on
Twitter to declare that he was no longer dealing with
 Mr. Darroch. The White
House promptly disinvited him from an elegant, CEO-filled Treasury
Department dinner Monday night for the visiting emir of Qatar.

As a backdrop,   Trump
associates and the president have another suspicion about America’s top
ally.

 

George Papadopoulos, as a
 Trump volunteer in
 London, encountered at
least two FBI spies, professor Stefan Halper and a supposed associate, as he
worked in 2016 to try to set up a
 Trump-Kremlin
meeting. He suspects other informants were dispatched to make contact with
him, and he believes the British spy service helped.

“The US-UK scandal that is going to hit headlines this week is about the
MI6, in coordination with the CIA, running Stefan Halper at me in
 London,” Papadopoulos
tweeted after the Darroch story broke.

 

  Mr. Trump believes
Mrs. May knows something about it. “I may very well talk to her about that,”
 Mr. Trump told
reporters in May before leaving on a state

[Ugnet] RELUCTANT WITNESS IN FISA ABUSE AGREE TO TALK TO IG

Reluctant witnesses in FISA abuse probe agree to talk to DOJ inspector
general




By   Catherine
Herridge,   Cyd Upson  

Sources tell Fox News that Justice Department inspector general is examining
a senior State Department official's contact with Christopher Steele, author
of the anti-Trump dossier; chief intelligence correspondent Catherine
Herridge reports. Report on Russia probe origins delayed as new evidence
prompts deeper review  

Key witnesses sought for questioning by Justice Department Inspector General
Michael E. Horowitz early in his investigation into alleged government
surveillance abuse have come forward at the 11th hour, Fox News has learned.


Sources familiar with the matter said at least one witness outside the
Justice Department and FBI started cooperating -- a breakthrough that came
after Attorney General William Barr ordered U.S. Attorney John Durham to
lead a separate investigation into the origins of the bureau’s 2016 Russia
case that laid the foundation for Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s probe.



Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz looks on as he
testifies before the Senate Judiciary Committee on "Examining the Inspector
General's First Report on Justice Department and FBI Actions in Advance of
the 2016 Presidential Election" in the Hart Senate Office Building on June
18, 2018, on Capitol Hill. (Photo by MANDEL NGAN / AFP/Getty Images) 

While the investigative phase

 of the inspector general’s long-running
probe
 is said to be complete, the sources said
recent developments required some witnesses to be reinterviewed. And while
Barr testified that he expected the report into alleged Foreign Intelligence
Surveillance Act (FISA) abuse to be ready in May or last month, multiple
sources said the timeline has slipped.

"The wheels of inspector general investigations move very, very slowly,"
former senior DOJ official Tom Dupree told Fox News. 

Dupree, who served as deputy assistant attorney general from 2007 to 2009,
does not have firsthand knowledge of the current IG case but is familiar
with the process. He added, "Like any investigation, you talk to one person,
something that person tells you sends you back … to the first person, so it
can be a very extensive, exhaustive process, because you are constantly
picking up leads, interviewing former sources and navigating complex
questions of classified information." 

Late-breaking information is known to delay such investigations. Horowitz’s
office similarly encountered new evidence late in the process of the IG
review into law enforcement decisions during the 2016 Hillary Clinton email
investigation. In this case, additional FISA information came to light late
in the process – including October 2016 contact (first reported by
 The Hill and confirmed by Fox
News) between a senior State Department official and a former British spy
Christopher Steele, who authored the infamous and salacious anti-Trump
dossier.   

The State Department contact with Steele was relayed to a senior FBI
official.  The timeline matters because about two weeks later, the FBI and
DOJ used Steele's unverified research, paid for by the DNC and Clinton
campaign, to secure a surveillance warrant against former Trump campaign
adviser Carter Page. At the very least, it's been argued, Steele's contact
with another government agency should have been a red flag for the FBI
because it may have violated his confidential human source agreement.

Steele was later fired by the FBI over his media contacts before the 2016
presidential election. The Page surveillance warrant is the central issue of
the DOJ IG’s review. 

With the timeline for Horowitz’s report not public, one of the wild cards is
the final review by the FBI and DOJ, which includes classification issues
and could take weeks. 

A spokesman for Horowitz would not comment on the report's status. But
during largely unrelated testimony in November, Horowitz offered some
guidance for the timeline of the FISA abuse probe in response to questions
from GOP Rep. Jim Jordan.   

"What I can say is given the volume of documents we've had and the number of
witnesses it looks like we'll need to interview, we are likely to be in the
same sort of general range of documents and witnesses as the last report,"
Horowitz said, referring to his team's review of the Clinton email case. "It
wouldn't surprise me if we are in that

Trump defies ominous predictions with nonpartisan July 4th salute to
American spirit 


Lukas Mikelionis 

Editor’s note: The opinions in this article are the author’s, as published
by our content partner, and do not necessarily represent the views of MSN or
Microsoft.

President Trump  
struck a patriotic, nonpartisan and unifying note during his address at
Fourth of July celebrations in Washington, D.C., as the massive crowd of
attendees avoided clashes despite provocations
  from protesters.

The event defied the critics who said the celebration on Thursday would be a
partisan  
political spectacle that would not even attract a significant crowd. CBS,
ABC, NBC and MSNBC snubbed the celebration and didn’t air it live, save for
their online streaming platforms.

Yet a massive crowd gathered on the Lincoln Memorial despite the rain, with
Trump later tweeting an aerial photo showing an audience that filled both
sides of the memorial’s Reflecting Pool and stretched to the Washington
Monument.

The president used the speech to call on Americans to “stay true to our
cause” and praised American heroes including the Armed Forces and civil
rights leaders.

“Our nation is stronger today than it ever was before. It is its strongest
now,” Trump said. “We celebrate our history, our people, and the heroes who
proudly defend our flag: the brave men and women of the United States
military.”

“For over 65 years, no enemy Air Force has managed to kill a single American
soldier. Because the skies belong to the United States of America,” he
added.

He went on to pay tribute to the U.S. Border Patrol and U.S. Immigration and
Customs Enforcement (ICE) and hailed Harriet Tubman and Frederick Douglass,
African-Americans who campaigned to abolish slavery over 100 years ago, as
great Americans.

The visuals -- flyovers by every branch of the military, a display of tanks
and other military hardware, the president rallying Americans before the
Lincoln Memorial -- drew complaints from critics that Trump was politicizing
the holiday while flexing U.S. military might to an uncomfortable degree.
The tenor of the address, however, still marked a contrast with the
predictions made by 2020 Democratic presidential candidates who said that
Trump would focus on his presidency rather than American ideals. Instead, he
strictly stuck to history as he cited numerous tales of valor to weave a
story of the American spirit.

“I wonder what Donald Trump will say this evening, when he speaks to the
nation at an event designed more to stroke his ego than celebrate American
ideals,” former Vice President Joe Biden, the 2020 Democratic primary
front-runner, said during an event in Iowa.

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand of New York also fired away at Trump, telling
reporters  that the event was “a waste of money, you know he’s having a
parade for himself, putting tanks out there for himself, and if he really
cares about the men and women of our nation he would be investing in higher
pay, better housing, better health care.” 

Rep. Tulsi Gabbard seconded, saying the event “dishonors our troops,
dishonors our service members and veterans.”

She added: “Because it’s really all about Trump. It’s not about our service
members, it’s not about their sacrifices it’s not about my brothers and
sisters who lost their lives in service to this country and that’s the most
unfortunate thing.”

Before the event and around the nation’s capital, rowdy agitators linked to
the Revolutionary Communist Party and other groups gathered to protest the
event, chanting “America was never great.”

But the streets of Washington remained generally peaceful, with only some
minimal clashes between the fringes of the far-left and far-right.

The agitators burned at least two American flags in front of the White
House, prompting the Secret Service to intervene to put out the fire.

The Secret Service said one person was arrested for felony assault on a
police officer and malicious burning. The other was arrested for hindering a
police investigation and resisting arrest.

Neither individual was identified. One of the individuals arrested and two
Secret Service officers were being treated for minor injuries.

Still, this was a far cry from the fears that the day could resemble Trump’s
inauguration ceremony in 2017, when black-clad activists created havoc and
the city saw violent clashes between them and die-hard supporters of the
president, or the deadly Charlottesville rally that attracted neo-Nazis and
white supremacists.

Instead, ordinary Americans came to watch the event that Trump called “one

Here Are All Of The Big Chinese Investments In Africa Since 2010

Chinese investments in Africa have raised many eyebrows, as competitors like
the U.S. argue that it's motivated by Beijing's desire to exploit the
continent's resources. 

Earlier this year China promised $20 billion
  in investments to various African countries, and U.S. secretary of
state Hilary Clinton said in a speech

that African countries should consider partnerships with more responsible
countries as against countries that exploit resources, in an unmistakable
reference to China. 

This prompted Chinese state news-agency Xinhua (via the Guardian)
  to write, "Whether Clinton was ignorant of the facts on the
ground or chose to disregard them, her implication that China has been
extracting Africa's wealth for itself is utterly wide of the truth." 

Given the recent debate we drew on this map from Stratfor
  to
highlight Chinese investments offers in Africa since 2010. From Stratfor: 

"While China has proposed $750 million for agriculture and general
development aid and about $50 million to support small- and medium-sized
business development in addition to the aforementioned projects, it has been
criticized for the extractive nature of its relationship with many African
countries, as well as the poor quality of some of its construction work. 

However, since many African countries lack the indigenous engineering
capability to construct these large-scale projects or the capital to
undertake them, African governments with limited resources welcome Chinese
investments enthusiastically. These foreign investment projects are also a
boon for Beijing, since China needs African resources to sustain its
domestic economy, and the projects in Africa provide a destination for
excess Chinese labor."

Russian oligarch's story could spell trouble for Team Mueller

By John Solomon, opinion contributor — 07/03/19 07:00 PM EDT 

Sometimes it is the quiet, elusive ones who come back to haunt you. And for
ex-special prosecutor   Robert
MuellerThe oligarch who once controlled Russia’s largest aluminum empire has
been an international man of intrigue in the now-completed and disproven
Trump   collusion investigation.

Deripaska was a disaffected former business client of
 Donald TrumpHe also was a legal
research client of Trump-hating, Clinton-aiding British spy Christopher
Steele. In his spare time, he was an occasional friendly cooperator with the
FBI and its fired deputy director, Andrew McCabe.

And, at the height of the Russia collusion hysteria, Deripaska

was sanctioned by the Trump administration to financially punish Russian
President   Vladimir Putin for
his meddling in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.

With the Russia case, in which he had so many connections, now completed,
Deripaska is breaking his silence. And what he has to say could impact
Mueller’s
 July 17 testimony before
Congress.

In a wide-ranging interview with me, Deripaska confirmed
 a story told to me more than a year ago by
law enforcement sources: He was indeed interviewed by FBI agents in
September 2016 during the early Russia probe, and he told them he strongly
doubted the bureau’s theory that the Trump campaign, through Manafort, was
colluding with Moscow to hijack the 2016 election.

“I told them straightforward, ‘Look, I am not a friend with him (Manafort).
Apparently not, because I started a court case (against him) six or nine
months before … . But since I’m Russian I would be very surprised that
anyone from Russia would try to approach him for any reason, and wouldn’t
come and ask me my opinion,’” he said, recounting exactly what he says he
told the FBI agents that day.

“I told them straightforward, I just don’t believe that he would represent
any Russian interest. And knowing what he’s doing on Ukraine for the last,
what, seven or eight years.”

OK, so why should you care if a Russian denied Trump campaign collusion with
Russia during the election?

First, Deripaska wasn’t just any Russian. He was closely aligned with Putin
and had been helpful to the FBI as far back as 2009. So he had earned some
trust with the agents.

Most importantly, Deripaska’s interview with the FBI reportedly was never
provided by Team Mueller to Manafort’s lawyers, even though it was potential
proof of innocence, according to Manafort defense lawyer Kevin Downing.
Manafort, initially investigated for collusion, was convicted on tax and
lobbying violations unrelated to the Russia case.

That omission opens a possible door for appeal for what is known as
 a Brady violation, for hiding
exculpatory information from a defendant.

“Recent revelations by The Hill prove that the Office of Special Counsel’s
(OSC) claim that they had a legitimate basis to include
 Paul Manafort in an investigation
of potential collusion between the Trump presidential campaign and the
Russian government is false,” Downing told me. “The failure to disclose this
information to Manafort, the courts, or the public reaffirms that the OSC
did not have a legitimate basis to investigate Manafort, and may prove that
the OSC had no legitimate basis to investigate potential collusion between
the Trump presidential campaign and the Russian government.”

Deripaska’s second relevance to Mueller’s congressional hearings has to do
with a series of events that first gained him trust inside the FBI.

Deripaska
 confirmed a story I reported
last year from FBI sources that he spent more than $20 million of his own
money between 2009 and 2011 on a private rescue operation to free Robert
Levinson, a retired FBI agent captured in Iran in 2007 while on a CIA
mission.

Deripaska confirmed he paid for the operation at the request of the FBI,
which was then under Mueller’s direction. And he added that McCabe, then a
rising FBI supervisor who was a former colleague of Levinson and later
became a key figure in the Russia collusion probe, was one of those who
asked him to help.

“I was approached, you know, by someone that he is under a lot of scrutiny
now — McCabe,” Deripaska said. “He also said that it was important enough

Former State Official Testifies He Warned State Department Officials about
Clinton Email Issues; Concerned about Interference on Classified Clinton
Benghazi Email Documents


JULY 03, 2019

(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch announced today that John Hackett, the
former Director for Information Programs and Services (IPS), which handles
records management at the State Department, testified
  under oath that he had raised concerns that former Secretary of
State Hillary Clinton’s staff had “culled out 30,000” of the secretary’s
“personal” emails without following strict National Archives standards. The
full deposition transcript is available here
 .

John Hackett, as part of a series of court-ordered depositions
  and questions under oath of senior Obama-era State Department
officials, lawyers, and Clinton aides, also revealed that he believed there
was interference with the formal Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) review
process related to the classification of Clinton’s Benghazi-related emails.

Hackett served first as deputy director then as director for Information
Programs and Services, which handles the FOIA request program and the
retirement of and declassification of documents at the State Department. He
was at the department from April 2013 to March 2016.

In March 2015, Clinton told reporters
  that she and her staff had deleted more than
30,000 emails “because they were personal and private about matters that I
believed were within the scope of my personal privacy.” ABC News reported:
“However, after a year-long investigation, the FBI recovered more than
17,000 emails that had been deleted or otherwise not turned over to the
State Department, and many of them were work-related, the FBI has said.”

(Heather Samuelson, the Clinton lawyer who deleted the Clinton emails,
separately testified
  to Judicial Watch that she received immunity from the Justice
Department.)

Hackett answered during the deposition that he recalled a conversation that
he had when he was at the State Department about requesting rules or
parameters from Secretary Clinton or her attorneys that they used to
segregate her personal and official work emails.

Hackett:  I recall it wasn’t much of a conversation. I — I was — I mean, I
have to say, it was emphatic to the Under Secretary of Management — and I
didn’t speak in tones like that very often to him — you know, that we needed
these — you know, the guidelines.

Judicial Watch: And when you said, the Under Secretary, are you referring to
Patrick Kennedy [then-Under Secretary of State for Management]?

Hackett: Yes.

Hackett: I think I might have raised it to Rich Visek, the Acting Office of
Legal Advisor, or Peggy — or Margaret Grafeld [an executive-level State
Department FOIA official] raised it to Rich, as well.

Judicial Watch: Why did you feel so strongly that this was necessary, that
they provide this information?

Hackett: Well, we heard that there were 50,000 or 60,000 emails, and that
they had – “they” being the Secretary’s team — had culled out 30,000 of
these. And which is — so we wanted to know what criteria they used. The
standard from the National Archives is very strict. If there was — if there
were mixed records, that would be considered a federal record. If it was
mixed personal and mentioned a discussion, that would be — under the narrow
National Archives rules, it would be considered a federal record.

Judicial Watch: And do you know if the emails that were returned by
Secretary Clinton and her attorneys, if they followed that guideline to
include an email that would include mixed information, personal and
official?

Hackett: I don’t know.

Judicial Watch: Was a request ever made by Patrick Kennedy or anybody else
who you raised this to?

Hackett: Ambassador Kennedy told me he would ask for the — the guidelines.

Judicial Watch: Do you know if the guidelines were ever provided to Patrick
Kennedy?

Hackett: Not during my tenure at the State Department.

In August 2014 the State Department sent some documents to the Benghazi
Select Committee that included a small number of Clinton emails. Hackett was
alerted about this production. Hackett was asked if the State Department
attorney who gave him the heads up said why he was providing the
information. Hackett answered: “I think only because he knew that there was
going to be publicity involved relating to this.”

Booker outlines plan to ‘virtually eliminate immigrant detention’ through
executive order


Cory Booker on Tuesday unveiled a complete plan to “virtually eliminate
immigrant detention” and develop protections for unlawful immigrants by way
of govt order — bypassing Congress solely — “on day one of his presidency.”

The aggressive proposal comes as polls persistently have proven Booker
trailing many fellow Democrats within the White Home race, together with Joe
Biden, Kamala Harris, Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren. Though a number
of of his rivals have already got introduced related proposals and even
endorsed decriminalizing border crossing solely, Booker’s plan was
distinctive in focusing on the immigrant detention services which have
attracted nationwide consideration in current weeks.

“When kids are being stripped away from their parents and held in cages, I
will not wait for Congress to solve this crisis,” Booker mentioned in an
announcement saying the plan. “On day one in all my presidency, I will take
fast steps to finish this administration’s ethical vandalism.

“And though there are limits on what we will do to reverse the harm that has
already been executed to the lives of hundreds and to communities throughout
our nation, we will put an finish to the horror, and switch the web page to
a brand new chapter of our historical past,” Booker added. “Our nation
should have an immigration system that displays our values, not one which
strips dignity away from folks fleeing hazard, threats, and violence.”

WHAT’S IN BIDEN’S IMMIGRATION PLAN?

Particularly, Booker’s marketing campaign mentioned in a written abstract of
his proposal that he would shut down “inhumane services and require all
services to satisfy excessive requirements,” and “section out contracting
with personal jail services and county or native prisons.”

Presidential candidate Amy Klobuchar requesting to be let into the Homestead
Detention Heart in Florida final week. (Daniel A. Varela/Miami Herald by way
of Internet, File)

That proposal alarmed some conservatives. Dan Cadman, a former Immigration
and Customs Enforcement (ICE) official and fellow on the Heart for
Immigration Research suppose tank, instructed Fox Information that Democrats
wished to “render it impossible for the government to detain anyone,
anywhere, anytime in any facilities.”

Non-public detention facilities, he mentioned, typically had been cheaper
and extra environment friendly than their government-run counterparts.

“U.S. government facilities are staffed by officers and employees who have
good salaries, mandatory overtime provisions, excellent health benefits and
lifetime pensions,” Cadman wrote on Monday. “None of that is cheap by any
means. While no one wants private facility guards who are underpaid and
overworked, the fact is that using the private sector to do this work is not
only a more cost effective use of taxpayer dollars, but also frees up the
officers and support staff who would otherwise be in such a facility to do
different but equally mission critical work.”

Booker moreover mentioned he would create “a presumption of liberty for
immigrants by reforming the bond process in immigration court.” This
previous April, Lawyer Normal Invoice Barr issued an order directing
immigration judges to disclaim bail to asylum seekers apprehended after
crossing into the U.S. illegally, even when they’ve demonstrated a reputable
worry of persecution of their dwelling nation.

Individually, Booker’s proposal additionally would restore and develop
“protections for as many Dreamers as possible, their families, individuals
with Temporary Protected Status, and those with Deferred Enforced Departure
status.”

In these respects, Booker’s plan largely mirrored the proposals supplied by
Biden and Harris in June. President Trump has sought to finish authorized
protections for so-called Dreamers, unlawful immigrants dropped at the
nation as kids who had been granted authorized protections by way of the
Obama-era Deferred Motion for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.

Each Harris and Biden have proposed making it simpler for Dreamers to turn
into residents and acquire inexperienced playing cards.

An estimated 350,000 folks — primarily from Central America, Africa and the
Center East — have been awarded Momentary Protected Standing (TPS) to stay
within the U.S. due to violence and pure disasters of their dwelling
international locations. The Trump administration has moved to revoke a few
of these TPS designations, though authorized challenges that halted among
the adjustments have been ongoing.

Additionally on Booker’s want record: increasing entry to “legal counsel for
all immigrants, starting with immigrant children,” pushing to “deprioritize
improper entry prosecutions throughout the U.S., except a person poses a
public security threat,” and “stopping the observe of terrorizing immigrants
of their properties and communities by reforming ICE and CBP practices and

[Ugnet] ROBERT MUELLER NEEDS TO REVISE HIS NOTES SO WELL BEFORE HE GETS CHEWED

2019-06-27 Thread Herrn Mulindwa Edward

‘Mueller better be prepared’: This twist could give GOP firebrands ammo at
hearing


By Janet   on June 26, 2019


Demonrats are eagerly awaiting the chance to question former Special Counsel
Robert Mueller
  on his
findings from the Russia investigation, but the timing of the sweltering
summer hearings could give those same lawmakers reason to sweat.

Mueller is scheduled to appear before the House Judiciary and Intelligence
committees on July 17. There is a more than reasonable chance that by that
time, the Justice Department inspector general could release his highly
anticipated report on the FBI’s use of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance
Act (FISA) system in the early stages of the Russia probe.

If that happens, President Trump’s Republican allies who have long alleged
FBI abuses as part of that process are sure to weaponize the report going
into the hearings — and could be poised to turn the tables on majority
Democrats.

The president himself signaled his interest in that line of questioning in
reacting to the Mueller hearing news in an interview Wednesday on Fox
Business Network’s “Mornings with Maria.”

“They got caught and they’re running around going wild trying to do
everything they can, but they spied on my campaign, it’s as simple as that,”
Trump said, referring to the probe’s origins at the FBI. “It’s so illegal,
it’s probably the biggest political scandal in history and they got caught
doing it.”

The FBI used a FISA warrant to monitor former Trump campaign adviser Carter
Page, but Republicans claim they acquired the warrant under false pretenses.
Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif., insists that the FBI improperly relied on the
unverified dossier compiled by former British spy Christopher Steele as part
of opposition research funded by the Clinton campaign. Nunes is on the
Intelligence Committee, and would have the opportunity to ask Mueller about
this directly.

Rep. John Ratcliffe, R-Texas, a member of both committees, said he has read
the FBI’s unredacted warrant applications and claims they relied heavily on
the Steele dossier, which he has described
  as “false and fake.”

“The question is, ‘was there a proper predicate?’”  Ratcliffe told Fox News’
Laura Ingraham in April.

Ratcliffe, a former federal prosecutor, will now get the opportunity to ask
this question to Mueller as well, and the IG report may provide fodder for
more targeted questioning. Related subjects that GOP committee members could
bring up are precisely what led to the launching of the probe, and at what
point in the two-year investigation did Mueller realize he did not have the
evidence to show an illegal conspiracy between the Trump campaign and
Russia.

Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., is on the Judiciary Committee and he told Fox News’
Shannon Bream on Tuesday that he is interested in asking Mueller about how
former FBI special agent Peter Strzok and attorney Lisa Page were brought
onto the investigative team, despite both having worked on the Hillary
Clinton email probe. “That’s not something you would normally see,” Gaetz
said. He also pointed to the appearance of a general Democratic-leaning
among the members of Mueller’s team.

“We have legitimate questions about how all these people ended up on the
Mueller team that had a history of donating financially to Democrats and
there didn’t seem to be sufficient balance,” Gaetz said while acknowledging
that there could be “reasonable answers to those questions.”

Democrats, meanwhile, are hoping to use the hearing to pry additional
details from Mueller, about the president’s possible Russia ties and more.

“Robert Mueller has agreed to testify before Congress pursuant to subpoena,”
Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., tweeted late Tuesday.
“Russia attacked our democracy to help Trump win. Trump welcomed and used
that help. As Mueller said, that should concern every American. And now,
every American will get to hear directly from Mueller.”

Schiff has previously outlined the avenues of questioning he would intend to
pursue with Mueller at the witness stand – and made clear he would press for
detailed answers despite the former special counsel’s stated reluctance to
testify.

“It’s not enough merely to speak for 10 minutes and say, ‘I’m not going to
answer questions for Congress and the American people.’ There are a great
many things that are not in the report,” he told ABC’s “This Week” earlier
this month. “We want to find out what happened to those counterintelligence
findings that were sent back to headquarters. And in terms of if the
president is vulnerable of influence from Russia.”

Alan Dershowitz: Mueller shouldn’t tell Congress anything about Trump not
already in his report




By Alan Dershowitz   

Robert Mueller to testify in front of intelligence and judiciary committees;
panel react and analysis on 'The Ingraham Angle.'

When former Special Counsel
 Robert Mueller
testifies July 17 before two Democratic-controlled House committees about
his investigation of Russian interference in our 2016 presidential election
and possible obstruction of justice by President Trump, Mueller should
refuse to say anything about the investigation of Trump and his campaign
beyond what is already in his report.

Reps. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., and Adam Schiff, D-Calif., announced Tuesday
that Mueller has agreed to testify before the House Judiciary Committee and
House Intelligence Committee after the Democratic-controlled committees
subpoenaed him.

If Mueller goes beyond his 448-page report he will commit the same sin for
which then-FBI Director James Comey was rightly condemned when Comey went
further than a prosecutor should ever go in public after making a decision
not to charge a crime. 

In 2016 Comey held an outrageous news conference that dealt with the FBI
investigation of Hillary Clinton’s handling of emails when she served as
President Barack Obama’s secretary of state. 

Instead of simply saying there was not enough evidence to prosecute the
then-Democratic presidential nominee, Comey expressed his opinion that
Clinton was “extremely careless” about her handling of State Department
emails on her private server.

The same principle that should have kept Comey from talking about the
Clinton emails should severely limit what Mueller can say about his
investigation of Trump and his campaign.  

The long tradition of the Justice Department – backed by important policies,
including the presumption of innocence for anyone suspected of wrongdoing –
is that law enforcement officials should only comment if someone is charged
with a crime. 

If a decision has been made not to charge someone with a crime, law
enforcement officials should never comment beyond stating that simple fact.

So Democrats should be careful about what they’re asking for. It may turn
out that Mueller’s House testimony will backfire against the Democrats and
help the Republicans.

Comey violated that sound tradition when – after announcing that Hillary
Clinton would not be charged in relation to her private server – he
expressed his opinion that she had been extremely sloppy in her handling of
emails, some of which were classified.

To avoid repeating Comey’s mistake, Mueller should refuse to go beyond his
report and should not express any opinion in his congressional testimony
regarding possible criminal conduct by President Trump – no matter how hard
Democrats try to get him to do so.

This is true whether or not Mueller believes that a sitting president can or
cannot be charged with a crime under Justice Department policy.

It is not the job of a prosecutor to decide guilt or innocence. That is the
job of a jury or judge, after hearing and seeing all the evidence –
including that presented by the defense.

Any prosecutor – including a special counsel like Mueller – hears only one
side. Based on that one-sided review only of evidence unfavorable to the
accused, the prosecutor must decide whether that evidence – if believed –
constitutes probable cause that a crime was committed by the person under
investigation.

Of critical importance, the prosecutor does not decide whether the accused
is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. A decision that there is enough
evidence to prosecute a person does not erase the presumption of innocence
that we are all entitled to under the Constitution.

Nor should a special counsel undercut the presumption of innocence by
suggesting that a person who he has decided not to prosecute may possibly be
guilty.

The irony of the Democratic subpoena directed at Mueller is that while he
may not properly answer the kinds of questions Democrats would like him to
answers – namely regarding possible evidence of wrongdoing by President
Trump – the former special counsel can properly answer the kinds of
questions Republicans would like to ask him, so long as this doesn’t require
the disclosure of classified or other privileged information.

The Republican questions could involve the so-called Steele dossier – a
report making unproven charges about Trump written by a former British spy
and funded by the Clinton campaign. Republicans could also ask about
possible misrepresentations made by federal officials to the Foreign
Intelligence Surveillance Court that allowed the initial FBI investigation
of the Trump campaign to begin, along with other issues that were not the
subject of the Mueller investigation or report.

So Democrats should be careful about what they’re asking for. It may turn
out that Mueller’s

'Unmasker in Chief' Samantha Power spewed anti-Trump bias in government
emails

By John Solomon, opinion contributor — 06/26/19 

Former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations
 Samantha Power may share an
unflattering stage with a text-loving FBI agent and his
 Donald Trump-hating paramour from
the bureau.

Fired agent Peter Strzok and ex-FBI lawyer Lisa Page are infamous today
 for texting on FBI phones their
anti-Trump sentiments while allegedly having an affair. They played key
roles in the   now-debunked
Russia collusion investigation.

It turns out that Power — the diplomat whose authority inexplicably was used
 to unmask hundreds of
Americans’ names in secret intelligence reports during the 2016 election —
engaged in similar Trump-bashing on her official government email, according
to documents unearthed by an   American Center for Law
and Justice lawsuit. The conservative legal group is run by Trump defense
attorney   Jay Sekulow

The discovery could add a new dimension — a question of political bias — to
a long-running congressional investigation into why Power's authority was
used to unmask hundreds of Americans' names in secret National Security
Agency intercepts during the 2016 election. That practice of unmasking
continues to grow today.

Power’s barbs toward Trump started as early as the GOP primaries, when
 she used
her email to connect Oskar Eustis, the artistic director at the Public
Theater in New York, with oft-quoted think tank scholar Norman Ornstein, the
memos show.

“Oskar, Norm will explain our political system, in a way that will
fleetingly make it seem rational, though maybe not after Trump and Sanders
win NH,” she wrote, predicting the future president and upstart socialist
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) would win the esteemed New Hampshire primary.

After Trump stunned the world with his general election win over Hillary
Clinton, the observations of Power and those emailing her on her official
government account turned more vitriolic.

“I am discouraged and frightened. Electing a right-wing president is
something, but such a morally repugnant bully!” read
 a Nov. 14, 2016, email to Power from a sender whose name the State
Department redacted for privacy reasons. The email referred to former Trump
strategist   Stephen
Bannon as “an avowed racist” and predicted, “The worst is coming.”

There is no evidence in the released documents that Power responded or
chastised the sender for using government email for such political
animosity.

But there is ample evidence she engaged in similar Trump-bashing.

In December 2016, for example, when sent a news story about Trump’s effort
to communicate a new policy direction for the U.N.,

Power snarkily replied: “This reflects the lack of understanding of
history.”

When Trump announced his intent to withdraw the U.S. from a global climate
deal, Power

emailed a colleague: “Lord help us all.”

And when a routine diplomatic issue with Japan arose in late November 2016,
Power
 emailed another colleague: “It is unreal how the Trump dynamic has
changed things.”

Perhaps most telling are Power’s efforts to arrange media interviews and
speeches during her final days in office, clearly aiming to counter the
incoming president’s agenda and fan the narrative that Trump might be
dangerously soft on matters involving Russia and mercilessly hard on
immigrants.

When   Jorge Ramos, news anchor for the
Spanish-language network Univision, floated an idea for an exit interview,
Power suggested her anguish at seeing Democrats lose the election was
receding the more she watched Trump in action.

“If we do something, we will make it good,”
 Power
wrote Ramos. “PTSD in retreat — Trump has vanquished it.” 

Power and her staff spent time brainstorming a possible CBS “60 Minutes”
interview as Trump’s transition period began. The idea was to parlay Power’s
remarks at an upcoming citizenship event and the TV news magazine interview
into forums to shame the president-elect on immigration.
