[SAHARAREPORTERS] The internet fraudster who will soon be sentenced by the US court appreciated the presiding Judge Otis D. Wright and the U.S. justice system for "upholding the law against criminals like myself."
Nigeria’s serial internet fraudster facing trial in the United States of America, Ramon Abbas, popularly known as Hushpuppi, has written to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), complimenting American authorities for arresting him and bringing him to justice for his crimes.
“American prisons are luxurious compared to what we know back home in Nigeria. Now I won’t have to worry about having a second circumcision.”

You mean the FBI actually went after a non-MAGA or a non-school board attendee person?

Assistant Village Idiot says MV only has a rich population in the summer--the rest of the year the population is much smaller and relatively poor.
I have no idea whose idea the "sanctuary city" was.

[ZH] Amid a two-month court battle which saw a federal judge side with a group of US Marines over the right to refuse the Covid-19 vaccine based on religious objections, the US Marine Corps has quietly dropped strict punishments for service members who are seeking exemptions.
A Sept. 14 notice reads that the "Marine Corps will not enforce any order to accept COVID-19 vaccination, administratively separate, or retaliate against Marines in the class for asserting statutory rights under the Religious Freedom Restoration Act."
The guidance references the temporary order blocking the Marines from taking action against individuals seeking a religious exemption.
"Involuntary administrative separation processing of class members for refusing COVID-19 vaccination is suspended," reads the memo, which directs commanders to "pause all administrative actions related to the involuntary separation of a class member, regardless of the current status of the separation process."
As The Epoch Times Jack Phillips further notes:
Listing several examples, the Marine guidance added that "no orders will be given to receive the vaccine, no counselings will be issued for refusing the vaccine, no administrative separation boards will be conducted," and no discharges will be issued.
If the Florida judge’s order is vacated or expires, the Marines may still enforce punishment against those who don’t meet the COVID-19 vaccine requirement, a spokesperson told Fox News. Last year, Pentagon chief Lloyd Austin issued an order that mandated vaccinations for all members of the armed service.
"The Marine Corps is aware of the class-wide preliminary injunction issued by a District Court judge for the Middle District of Florida preventing the Marine Corps from enforcing any order to accept the COVID-19 vaccine or administratively separating Marines who refused to receive the COVID vaccine after their religious accommodation appeal was denied," Marine Corps spokesperson Maj. Jay Hernandez told the outlet.
RECRUITMENT DOWN
In recent months, reports have indicated that every branch of the U.S. military is struggling to find new recruits, triggering warnings from some members of Congress.
Some have flagged the Pentagon’s strict vaccine requirement while others have said it is because of the slow creep of "woke" diversity trainings and mandates into the military. And others say that high U.S. obesity rates may be a contributing factor, and others note that the pay is not adequate.
"We are on the cusp of a military recruiting crisis," Rep. Mike Gallagher (R-Wis.) told Politico in July. "When Republicans take control of Congress in a few months," he added, "averting the recruiting crisis will be a top priority of the Military Personnel Subcommittee."
Rep. Jason Crow (D-Colo.), a former Army ranger, told the outlet that the Pentagon should promise more money in the form of "enlistment incentives and bonuses."

[IsraelTimes] Distributors of Beautiful Blue Eyes again allowed to advertise film on social media site; Meta initially upheld ban, but later said was ’made in error’
Facebook on Friday reversed a ban on adverts for a Holocaust movie which it initially said had violated the social media site’s policies related to race.
Earlier this month, Joshua Newton, the director of Beautiful Blue Eyes, told Rolling Stone that Facebook notified the movie’s distributor that it had banned promoting or advertising the film on the platform.
Facebook said the movie’s title, which refers to the eye color of a child who was killed by the Nazis — a major scene in the movie — violated its policy against content that "includes direct or indirect assertions or implications about a person’s race."
Newton told Rolling Stone that his parents are Holocaust survivors and the movie was based on his late father’s life.
"This is the action of haters, and there are sadly many in our society, who seek to damage the film in order to trivialize the Holocaust," Newton told the news site. "Surely, Mark Zuckerberg ...the Peewee Herman clone who owns Facebook. He's got more money than Croesus and thinks he should be regulated by the government because it does such a nifty job with all the other stuff it regulates. Until it does, he's not going to stop doing the things he sez need regulated... did not intend this to happen," he added.
The filmmakers appealed the ban, but Facebook initially upheld the decision.
"After a requested review of your Facebook account, we confirmed it didn’t comply with our Advertising Policies or other standards. You can no longer advertise using Facebook Products. This is our final decision," a note to the movie’s distributor read, according to the report.
The advertisements for the movie, including trailers were "permanently restricted."
But following the Rolling Stone report, Facebook’s parent company Meta told Ars Technica that it had reversed the ban.
"We reviewed the ads and page in question and determined that the enforcement was made in error, so we lifted the restriction," a spokesperson told the tech news site.
The production company did not immediately comment on the latest developments.
Beautiful Blue Eyes, originally known as Iron Cross, focuses on a retired police officer who seeks Dire Revenge against an elderly man he’s convinced is the Nazi who slaughtered his family during the Holocaust.
[Yahoo] A 2024 presidential run could be in the works for former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.
"We've got a team in Iowa, a team in New Hampshire and South Carolina. And that's not random," Pompeo, 58, said during a fundraising event in Chicago on Tuesday, Politico reported. "We are doing the things one would do to get ready."
Pompeo, who was appointed director of the CIA and, later, secretary of state under former President Donald Trump, also took a swipe at his onetime boss. "Unlike others, if I go down an escalator, no one will notice," Pompeo joked, referring to Trump's famous ride down the Trump Tower escalator after announcing he was running in 2015.
"We are trying to figure out if that is the next place for us to serve," Pompeo continued, according to Politico. "If we conclude [running for president] is, we'll go make the case to the American people of why that is. And in the end, the American people, I pray, will make a good decision about who's going to be their next leader."
The politician made the comments while speaking at the Navy SEAL Foundation Midwest Evening of Tribute on Tuesday. The event raised $6.3 million for veterans and their families, Politico reported.

Pompeo is a West Point man so I will liken his campaign to a military engagement so that he can plan his efforts accordingly. I think the Bay of Pigs best approximates his 2024 run properly as Gallipoli lasted longer than Pompeii will be in the race. Also the Bay of Pigs is synonymous for senseless dark ops failure due to lack of popular support.

I think something happens to a person when they enter CIA HQ. Brain implant or gamma irradiation that burns out the portion of the brain that provides scruples.
Something like that...

I heard some talk of a Pompeo run. Also heard things about the choice, as he is in alignment with Deep State and refuses to recognize its existence.
[Why HCQ and Ivermectin were/still are demonized: If there is an alternative therapy, Big Pharma may not get Emergency Use Authorizations (EUAs).]
[Nature dot com] Abstract:
Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), a drug used to treat lupus and malaria, was proposed as a treatment for SARS-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, albeit with controversy. In vitro, HCQ effectively inhibits viral entry, but its use in the clinic has been hampered by conflicting results. A better understanding of HCQ’s mechanism of actions in vitro is needed. Recently, anesthetics were shown to disrupt ordered clusters of monosialotetrahexosylganglioside1 (GM1) lipid. These same lipid clusters recruit the SARS-CoV-2 surface receptor angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) to endocytic lipids, away from phosphatidylinositol 4,5 bisphosphate (PIP2) clusters. Here we employed super-resolution imaging of cultured mammalian cells (VeroE6, A549, H1793, and HEK293T) to show HCQ directly perturbs clustering of ACE2 receptor with both endocytic lipids and PIP2 clusters. In elevated (high) cholesterol, HCQ moves ACE2 nanoscopic distances away from endocytic lipids. In cells with resting (low) cholesterol, ACE2 primarily associates with PIP2 clusters, and HCQ moves ACE2 away from PIP2 clusters—erythromycin has a similar effect. We conclude HCQ inhibits viral entry through two distinct mechanisms in high and low tissue cholesterol and does so prior to inhibiting cathepsin-L. HCQ clinical trials and animal studies will need to account for tissue cholesterol levels when evaluating dosing and efficacy.

SO....
HCQ which was already " generic for Plaquenil " / Cheap and in plentiful global supply and did a better job.
But using it would have precluded using a surprisingly quickly developed, almost as if PLANNED FOR, experimental vaxccident with secretly known adverse side effects.
Thus allowing Governments to spend $100's of Billions of dollars on a poorly working VAX that made certain insider people Uber rich. Plus, by current USC laws, are not required to state or acknowledge background cash awards collected from companies for their insider Taxpayer funded R&D gain of function projects.
Sounds like charges of Mass Murder for the deaths of 6,530,581+ in a International Criminal Court should be happening.
But who controls the International Criminal Court (ICC).
A court of last resort for the prosecution of serious international crimes, including genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity.
USA – Not a party
Russia – Not a party
China – Not a Party
UK – a member BUT ensured, in domestic legislation incorporating the ICC Statute, that no criminal proceedings may be initiated without the consent of the UK Government which consent had never been granted, to any private prosecutor, whether under the ICC or under any other legislation on International crime.

I'm still wondering what might have happened if Trump never mentioned HCQ or ivermectin.
There's lots of other helpful drugs Trump didn't mention that wound up being withheld from Covid patients anyway.
Off the top of my head: ACE inhibitors, Azithromycin, Antihistamines, and Aspirin.
It's kind of awe-inspiring in its chickenshitness, The guy who said that most people who died from the Spanish flu died from secondary infections was also the one who made damn sure no antibiotic was part of the treatment protocol for Covid.

The ICC is under the control of the Security Council (SC)
That means they can control the Court but are themselves unanswerable to it!
This is why the ICC has been mainly indicting Africans.

SPOD: some equatorial Africans will have maintenance doses of malaria suppressants, but most won't. There can be side effects, and money is tight.
And while anti-helmintics are often given to patients automatically, their effect seems to wear off after a relatively short time, so they must not stay in the blood more than a few weeks (see https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7341313/ , assuming that mules metabolize the stuff similarly to humans).
Bottom line--I don't expect much of either of these in their blood.

[KhaamaPress] Days after being detained by Iran’s morality police for purportedly failing to observe the country’s hijab regulations, Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old woman, died in a hospital.
Kurdish woman Mahsa Amini, 22, died after being violent mostly peacefully arrested in Iran ...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate JewsZionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol... for violating the hijab rules of Iran.
A flood of reactions both inside and outside of Iran have followed the death of Mahsa Amini by the country’s inquisitors religious police, aka guidance patrol.
Afghan social media users are sharing pictures of Mahsa, and in their comments, they are drawing comparisons between the Taliban ...the Pashtun equivalent of men... and the Iranian morality police, a inquisitors religious police force with a similar aim and track record.
Anti-government protests have been going on in Iran since yesterday. Protests in and around the hospital, on Arjantin Square in Tehran, at night from houses’ roofs, and in the cemetery have been reported by the local media.
"Death to the dictator" is chanted by the demonstrators in the videos that have been made public. In response to this "barbaric" murder, Iranian and Afghan artists have reacted, and both domestic and foreign political figures have denounced it.
Former Iranian parliament vice-speaker Ali Motahari stated to the Iranian Jamaran in response to the beating of Mahsa Amini, "Incidents like the case of Mahsa Amini portray us to the world like the Taliban."
Among those who reacted to the Kurdish-Iranian woman’s death are two Afghan poets. Afghan poet Waheed Baktash wrote that "There is a corrupt and repressive government in our neighborhood that never stops killing its citizens."
Kawa Jibran, intellectual, activist, poet, and writer of Afghanistan also condemned the actions of the Iranian morality police, writing, "The sick thought is an active killer when it enters society; it is a full-fledged monster that feeds on human blood under any pretense."
According to The Guardian, Amini’s family was told the young woman would be released from the cop shoppe after a "re-education session."
Police said Thursday that Amini was taken to a hospital after she allegedly had a heart attack while in jug. Not surprising since she was an Old Maid of 22
Persian-language media, including the Iran Wire website and the Shargh newspaper, have quoted her family as saying that the previously-healthy Amini had been rushed to hospital in a coma a few hours after her arrest.
It is not yet clear what happened between her arrival at the cop shoppe and her departure for the hospital.
The 1500tavsir social media channel, which monitors human rights When they're defined by the state or an NGO they don't mean much... violations in Iran, said the young woman had suffered a blow to the head.
Iran’s morality police has been criticized in recent years over its treatment of people, especially young women, and videos uploaded on social media have shown officers forcing women into police vehicles.
Activists accuse Iran of being in the throes of a major crackdown that is affecting all areas of society, including a new push against the Baha’i religious minority and death sentence ...the barbaric practice of sentencing a murderer to be punished for as long as his/her/its victim is dead... s for members of the LGBTQ community, as well as a surge in executions, and arrests of foreign nationals.
