Shady links

Somebody - State Department, CIA? - is really pouring money into the Epoch Times, which is starting to present itself, and be presented, as a legitimate news organization, and not just a Chinese-government-hating cult of fruitcakes (similar in many ways to the MEK):  "NY Times’ pseudo-expert accusing China of genocide worked for publicity arm of far-right cult Falun Gong" (Norton).

Tweet (Glenn Greenwald) (Robinhood could lose a lot of its customer base, hopefully very fast):

It's hard to find market manipulation more flagrant than this, but since it's being done to protect the wealthiest and most powerful -- Wall St oligarchs who own and control the establishment wings of both parties -- it's very hard to imagine the government treating it as such: https://t.co/VJnXpMAqkJ

"French court orders Hassan Diab to stand trial in terrorism case, 3 years after he was set free" (Cochrane).  Hopeless (((corruption))) in the French 'justice' system.  I'm hoping Canada won't extradite (at least until the big bags of shekels arrive).

"Why Biden installing Obama-era hawks in senior roles and preparing to fire up the War Machine again is very bad news for Syrians" (beeley).

Tweet (Aaron Maté):

"If you’re going to try to impugn people like Jimmy & Tulsi, doesn’t help your case to invoke an example where they were vindicated. This claim of a “red-brown alliance” indeed fits right in: it’s bullshit."

It is starting to look like one single War For The Jews - Afghanistan or Yemen, probably, with Yemen the best bet - will be put on hold, as a sop to the Jew haters/lovers of peace, to allow for full speed ahead on all the others, including, of course, WWIII.

"The Angry Arab: Machinations in the Gulf":

"Biden pledged to seek accountability and that won’t be easy to reverse, despite Biden’s long career of support for Arab despots.  Most likely, Biden will support the replacement of MbS with another prince. Former Crown Prince Muhammad bin Nayif remains a favorite of the D.C. security and intelligence establishment. 

But the rehabilitation of MbS is not out the question, especially if he were to follow in Sadat’s footsteps by addressing the Israeli Knesset."

Tweet (Keith Woods):

"Nancy Pelosi bought TESLA stock right before they announced Electronic Vehicle subsidies were in the legislative agenda.

But they want you to get outraged that some forum users beat the insiders at their own game."

"Signal, the ‘encrypted messenger of the future,’ has shady links to US national security interests" (Klarenberg).  When you decide to use any of these products, you have to decide which intelligence operation you would prefer to snoop on you.

"Merrick Garland Wants Former Facebook Lawyer to Top Antitrust Division" (Grim/Dayan).  Part of a series of mind-boggling examples of corruption in the Biden Administration involving the 'regulation' of Big Tech.  It's shithole country tier stuff.
