In which it is discovered that once again the FBI and Department of Justice attorney did not check any of the required boxes before charging ahead with destroying the life of their latest target.
[STUNDIN] A major witness in the United States’ Department of Justice case against Julian Assange has admitted to fabricating key accusations in the indictment against the Wikileaks founder. The witness, who has a documented history with sociopathy and has received several convictions for sexual abuse of minors and wide-ranging financial fraud, made the admission in a newly published interview in Stundin where he also confessed to having continued his crime spree whilst working with the Department of Justice and FBI and receiving a promise of immunity from prosecution.
The man in question, Sigurdur Ingi Thordarson, was recruited by US authorities to build a case against Assange after misleading them to believe he was previously a close associate of his. In fact he had volunteered on a limited basis to raise money for Wikileaks in 2010 but was found to have used that opportunity to embezzle more than $50,000 from the organization. Julian Assange was visiting Thordarson’s home country of Iceland around this time due to his work with Icelandic media and members of parliament in preparing the Icelandic Modern Media Initiative, a press freedom project that produced a parliamentary resolution supporting whistleblowers and investigative journalism.
The United States is currently seeking Assange’s extradition from the United Kingdom in order to try him for espionage relating to the release of leaked classified documents. If convicted, he could face up to 175 years in prison. The indictment has sparked fears for press freedoms in the United States and beyond and prompted strong statements in support of Assange from Amnesty International, Reporters without borders, the editorial staff of the Washington Post and many others.
US officials presented an updated version of an indictment against him to a Magistrate court in London last summer. The veracity of the information contained therein is now directly contradicted by the main witness, whose testimony it is based on.

Fully automatic rifle?
My untrained ears hear a semi-automatic rifle going pop pop and another, presumably military select fire, in pew-pew-pew mode.

First rifle was definitely full auto firing 3 round burst. Dummy didn't have the 100 round drum magazine secure and it fell out after the first burst (Cops say thank you for the fingerprints on the magazine). Shooter then fires backup pistol.
Two? or so years ago, Customs was intercepting shipments from China that converted AR-15s to full auto. Guess we know where one ended up.

Or that rifle "fell off" a National Guard, police, or Army truck. Or was looted from a rail car -- Chicago gangs have people working inside the rail companies so they know of any such opportunities.

how can you tell what was going on? i counted no fewer than 10 times the media played the clip of the 3 round burst over and over and interspersed with other audio clips.
to make it sound more deadly?
and another example of why the media cannot be trusted.

That was a problem I had. It was like they were trying to edit the incident into the Battle of Mogadishu.

[PJ] On Friday, the U.S. Department of Commerce again confirmed the ominous warning sign of inflation as the U.S. economy adjusts to global economic trends, the winding down of the COVID-19 pandemic, and President Joe Biden’s profligate government spending. While many economists and policymakers claim that the recent uptick in inflation is temporary, a recent Deutsche Bank report warned of a repeat of the 1970s.
The personal consumption expenditures (PCE) index rose 0.4 percent in May, slightly less than the 0.5 percent increase economists predicted, MarketWatch reported. Over the past year, consumer prices have shot up 3.9 percent, reflecting the biggest gain since 2008 when oil prices hit a record high of $150 per barrel.
This PCE number is double the Federal Reserve’s 2 percent goal, but officials have downplayed the increase. Fed leaders argue that prices will lower next year as the economy returns to normal, most people go back to work, and widespread shortages of labor and supplies fade away.
The core PCE price index, the Fed’s preferred measure of inflation, rose 0.5 percent in May, hitting 3.4 percent, above the 3.1 percent April figure.

The traditonal bureaucratic solution to inflation is to remove from the consumer price index anything that a consumer might actually buy.

[BIZPACREVIEW] The U.S. Air Force introduced a new weapon earlier this month that can disable hundreds of drones simultaneously without making much noise.
The defensive weapon, called the Tactical High Power Operational Responder, or THOR, utilizes a burst of energy that disorients and disables the electronics inside drones within range.
Air Force officials said THOR will have multiple uses and can serve in a variety of roles and battlespaces.
“THOR uses a focused beam of energy to defeat drones in a large target area,” says the video. “It provides a non-kinetic defeat of multiple targets at the speed of light.”
The Air Force says the system portable enough to be transported in a C-130 aircraft, can be installed in about three hours, uses local power and can be set up by as few as two personnel.
The service branch also said that the system has been tested in real-world conditions and has successfully defeated multiple threats under various conditions using its instantaneous microwave beam.
The system can stop “attacks at long range before they threaten critical infrastructure,” the video concludes.
The first THOR prototype was introduced in New Mexico in 2019 at a cost of $15 million. Each subsequent system costs $10 million to manufacture.
While some bases have been defended by THOR even as it was under development, the objective, according to the Air Force, is to get platoons equipped with fully functional systems by 2024.

Back in '94 there was a similar rise in lumber when I had my house built. The builder used steel instead, it was cheaper at the time. Only issue I've had is that 'home renovation' isn't going to be HGTV style cause you can't just cut any beams. Nailing baseboard at the corner joints gets a little tricky.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing

Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
