2…………> Paris Is Burning: What’s Next

 

“No cause justifies that authorities are attacked, that businesses are plundered, that passers-by or journalists are threatened or that the Arc de Triomphe is defiled,” the President of the Islamic Sheikdom of France, Grand Rabbinical Ayatollah Emanuel Macron warned.

He said those responsible did not want change but instead intended to “wreak chaos” as he responded to the day’s events from the G20 summit in Buenos Aires, saying the protests “had absolutely nothing to do with a peaceful demonstration of legitimate unhappiness or discontent.”

Protesters climbed-up the Arc de Triomphe in central Paris, as clashes with riot police continued during the third weekend of “yellow vest” rallies, with tear gas, stun grenades and water cannon were employed on the Champs-Elysées, while masked protesters hurled projectiles and set buildings on fire. At least 110 people were injured, including 17 members of the security forces, and 270 arrests were made during the protests over fuel tax have grown into general anger at higher living costs. President Emmanuel Macron says his fuel policies are needed to combat global warming.

3…………> A Life Of Duty, Honor & Patriotism: George H.W.Bush

 

The American Nation is mourning the passing of the former President Mr.George H.W. Bush, a man of “the greatest generation” who narrowly avoided beheading at the hands of his Japanese captors after his plane was shot down in the Pacific theatre in 1944. Now, some seventy years later, President Trump is sending Air Force 1 to bring his casket to D.C. for a State funeral.

4…………> Sun Spots Cycles: LNG Correlation?

 

Scientists have inferred that the number of sunspots on the sun cycle over time, with a peak number, called the Solar Maximum, occurring approximately every 11 years, resulting in colder winters in the Northern hemisphere.

“I was a real skeptic on the impact of solar cycles and sunspots,” Todd Crawford, the senior meteorological scientist at IBM’s The Weather Co., admitted recently. However, after studying cold winter patterns, he was “on board,” he said the outlet.

“They appear dark because they are cooler than other parts of the Sun’s surface they form at areas where magnetic fields are particularly strong. These magnetic fields are so strong that they keep some of the heat within the sun from reaching the surface,” NASA’s website adds.

The new theory gaining traction among commercial meteorologists and hedge fund investors suggests that sunspots on the sun’s surface could provide insight into natural gas prices.

 5…………> Bangaladeshy Smuggler: Mexico

 

“Protecting our country from illegal immigration and the national security threat it poses is a priority for the Department of Justice. The Criminal Division is dedicated to working with our law enforcement partners both here and abroad to disrupt the flow of illegal aliens into the United States, and bring those who facilitate their travel to justice,” that is how Assistant Attorney General Benczkowski described the criminal activities of a Bangladeshi national residing in Monterrey, Mexico.

Moktar Hossain, 30  was arrested yesterday on arrival at George Bush Intercontinental Airport to face a criminal indictment issued in the Laredo Division of the Southern District of Texas for his role in a scheme to smuggle aliens from Mexico into the United States.

1…………> Today’s White House Tweets: President Trump

Senator Feinstein and the Democrats held the letter for months, only to release it with a bang after the hearings were OVER – done very purposefully to Obstruct & Resist & Delay. Let her testify, or not, and TAKE THE VOTE!

….has been asked to review these documents on an expedited basis. I believe he will move quickly on this (and hopefully other things which he is looking at). In the end I can always declassify if it proves necessary. Speed is very important to me – and everyone!

I met with the DOJ concerning the declassification of various UNREDACTED documents. They agreed to release them but stated that so doing may have a perceived negative impact on the Russia probe. Also, key Allies’ called to ask not to release. Therefore, the Inspector General…..

Judge Brett Kavanaugh is a fine man, with an impeccable reputation, who is under assault by radical left wing politicians who don’t want to know the answers, they just want to destroy and delay. Facts don’t matter. I go through this with them every single day in D.C.

 

 

 

 

2…………> Get The Hackers: Trump

 

America’s first cyber strategy in 15 years America and its allies are under attack every day in cyberspace, as malicious actors try to undermine our safety and security by damaging our national infrastructure and upending the lives of ordinary Americans.

In response to this growing threat, President Donald J. Trump has unveiled America’s first comprehensive cyber strategy since 2003. The plan builds on the four priorities outlined in the Administration’s broader National Security Strategy:

1. Protect the American People, the Homeland, and the American Way of Life by securing our information systems and combatting cybercrime

2. Promote American Prosperity by pursuing cyberspace as an engine of economic growth, innovation, and efficiency

3. Preserve Peace through Strength by identifying, countering, disrupting, degrading, and deterring lousy behavior in cyberspace

4. Advance American Influence by preserving the long-term openness, security, and reliability of the Internet The United States is engaged in constant competition against strategic adversaries, rogue states, and terrorist and criminal networks. These new threats demand a late response. The Administration’s answer to these risks is anchored by enduring American values—a belief in the power of individual liberty, free expression, free markets, and privacy.

3………….> Tanzania Tragedy: Ferry

 

 Tanzania’s top police official Simon Sirro says that at least 136 bodies have been retrieved after a ferry sank on Lake Victoria, with scores more were still feared missing as rescuers searched for survivors on the morning after the disaster.

Officials are concerned the final death toll could climb to more than 200, with initial estimates showing the MV Nyerere was carrying more than 300 people.

“With God’s help, we rescue those who are alive,” Mwanza district commissioner John Mongela had said earlier and two other vessels had been diverted to help with the rescue operation. The ferry sank just a few meters from the dock in Ukerewe district.

4………….> Stalinist Tactics: Marine Le Pen

 

“This is not how we will weaken the far-right. A court orders a psychiatric assessment for Marine Le Pen. Words fail me! Solidarity with her and with the French who love freedom!” Italy’s Interior Minister Matteo Salvini said in a statement as the Islamic Sheikdom of Frence far-right leader Marine Le Pen is refusing to undergo a court-ordered psychiatric exam for tweeting brutal images of Islamic State violence, comparing the demand to methods used in totalitarian regimes.  She is under investigation for disseminating violent images by tweeted three images of executions in 2015, including the beheading of American journalist James Foley.

 A judge wants to find out if she has any mental illness when she posted the tweets, and an expert opinion whether her mental health could be a risk to the public. Ms. Le Pen’s criticism fits the party’s narrative that judges persecute it as part of an attempt by the establishment to undermine it politically.

1…………> Stars At Sea: Memories

The celebrated Cunard cruise line was the first to introduce onboard photographers in the 1920s, as ships’ photographers would take snapshots of the passengers, creating prints in the darkroom that were then displayed on long tables the next morning. Travellers were able to put their orders in, and the photographs were then printed in Southampton and posted around the world. 

By 1936, when Cunard’s flagship the Queen Mary was launched, the firm employed a fleet of photographers working all night to supply the demand.

2…………> Encrypted Drug Dealing: Canada

Vincent Ramos, the chief executive of Canada-based Phantom Secure, and four of his associates were indicted by a federal grand jury today on charges that they knowingly and intentionally participated in a criminal enterprise that facilitated the transnational importation and distribution of narcotics through the sale and service of encrypted communications.

This is the first time the U.S. government has targeted a company and its principals for knowingly and intentionally conspiring with criminal organizations by providing them with the technological tools to evade law enforcement and obstruct justice while committing transnational drug trafficking.

“With one American dying of a drug overdose every nine minutes, our great nation is suffering the deadliest drug epidemic in our history,” said Attorney General Jeff Sessions. “Incredibly, some have sought to profit off of this crisis, including by specifically taking advantage of encryption technologies to further criminal activity, and to obstruct, impede, and evade law enforcement, as this case illustrates. The Department of Justice will aggressively prosecute not just drug traffickers, but those who help them spread addiction and death in our communities. I want to thank the FBI, DEA, Customs and Border Protection, Homeland Security Investigations, Washington State Police, the Bellingham and Blaine Police Departments, and all of our law enforcement partners around the world, including Australia, Canada, Panama, Hong Kong, and Thailand for their hard work on this case. Today’s indictment sends a clear message that drug traffickers and criminals cannot hide because we will hunt them down and find them wherever they are.”

3…………> Shoddy Vests: Japan

Toyobo Co. Ltd. of Japan and its American subsidiary, Toyobo U.S.A. Inc., f/k/a Toyobo America Inc. (collectively, Toyobo), have agreed to pay $66 million to resolve claims under the False Claims Act that they sold defective Zylon fiber used in bullet proof vests that the United States purchased for federal, state, local, and tribal law enforcement agencies, the Justice Department announced today, being fully aware that Zylon degraded quickly in normal heat and humidity, and that this degradation rendered bullet proof vests containing Zylon unfit for use.

“Bulletproof vests are sometimes what stands between a police officer and death,” said Attorney General Jeff Sessions. “Selling material for these vests that one knows to be defective is dishonest and risks the lives of the men and women who serve to protect us. The Department of Justice is committed to the protection of our law enforcement officers, and today’s resolution sends another clear message that we will not tolerate those who put our first responders in harm’s way.”

4…………> Sharia Country: Indonesia

Amnesty International urged Indonesia to block moves to introduce beheading as a punishment for murder in the country’s conservative Aceh province, by not following countries like Saudi Arabia using it as an effective deterrent.

In addition, it suggested that Indonesia stop drafting laws to criminalise gay sex, sex between unmarried couples.

“Beheading is more in line with Islamic law and will cause a deterrent effect … a strict punishment is made to save human beings,” Syukri M. Yusuf, the head of Aceh’s Shariah Law and Human Rights Office, said on Wednesday.

“We will begin to draft the law when our academic research is completed.”

5…………> Faulty Design: Florida

Six people are now confirmed dead, and more than 10 seriously injured after the newly built 950-tonne bridge crushed vehicles on one of the busiest roads in South Florida.

“Unfortunately, this has turned from a rescue to a recovery operation,” a Miami-Dade police said.

The number of those killed could rise since more vehicles could still be under the concrete and twisted metal, and rescue workers are combing through the rubble of a pedestrian bridge that collapsed onto several lanes of traffic at Florida International University.
