FBI launches criminal investigations of John Brennan, James Comey over Trump-Russia probe
Let the ignorant cult members speak first here. None of you knows anything. This is simply POTUS' fascism not so cleverly trying to masquerade as legality. It's the petulant little child trying to have his way because others did their job and told the truth. (By the way, I suspect the next "investigation" might be of SecState Rubio, as will be noted later.) The clowns have spent 8.5 years trying to change reality re Russiagate. In his first term POTUS appointed Durham to "investigate", the goal being not to find the truth, but to find enemies to prosecute. A few years and $7.6 million was spent trying to find something to indict Brennan and Comey. Durham not only gave them a clean bill of health, and he stated everything had been done "by the book". Oh, and not a single investigator under Durham cared about the facts of actual campaign-Russia cooperation. When they were handed classified intel that noted such things---as came in via liaison or human clandestine sources, even SIGINT---they said they were not interested in that. The two Congressional intel committees released reports. The senate report, released by a Republican-controlled SSCI, and chaired by now SecState Rubio, not only concluded the investigation showed zero evidence of any attempts to politicize it, the SSCI report also noted actual evidence of cooperation between the 2016 campaign and Russia (Campaign Chair Manafort's trip to Spain to pass internal polling data to GRU asset Konstantin Kilimnik, who handed the data to the GRU's Internet Research Agency, who subsequently microtargeted voters in key swing States with made-up stories about Clinton and other Dems.). I bet Rubio is now trying to pretend he just took over the job near the SSCI Report completion, because the previous SSCI Chair---Senator Burr---had just stepped down and Rubio was raised to Chair. Rubio, as well as any Senator who served on SCCI, knows the actual truth, not the MAGA Fake Truth. At that time, a DoJ prosecutor, in response to the actual witch hunt to get Brennan and Comey, wrote: "I expect that eventually you will find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion". Now they have. DCI Ratcliff and the sycophants he dragged into the agency, have concocted a referral, sent to DoJ, which is the basis of this absurdity. There is a lot of intel re Russiagate that remains classified, but is damning to POTUS and his 2016 team. I expect true patriots in the agency will "leak" some of it. I suspect the bureau has lots more, as right from the initial receipt of intel re cooperation with Russia (from both foreign liaison intel services and human clandestine sources) the agency, via John Brennan, sent everything to the bureau and made a Bigot List within the agency to both limit and monitor any agency knowledge of the investigation. 100% of any investigation was done by the bureau, as the agency mandate demands any matter involving a US Citizen be turned over to the bureau. The agency was merely a receptacle for intel, as liaison and clandestine sources provided intel. I have known John for many years and occasionally socialize with him. I had suggested to him---well aware of the fascist plans of POTUS and his minions---that should re-election happen, John should leave the country he served and loves, because as Sinclair Lewis wrote, "It Can Happen Here". There is clearly a pattern in this Administration of retribution. Look at all the FBI agents fired because they investigated either Russiagate or the terrorists who attacked the US Capitol on 6 Jan 2021. Look at all the DoJ prosecutors fired because they investigated and prosecuted the 6 Jan terrorists. Some are even being investigated (as POTUS suggested they should when he gave a speech at DoJ discussing, inter alia, 6 January 2021 and the subsequent convictions). What might be a term for that....oh yea, weaponization of justice. POTUS and MAGA ALWAYS project. When they claim "weaponization", it just means that is what they do, as they have no evidence any weaponization of justice occurred in the past. Today "justice" is punishment in search of a crime. MAGAs might like all of this, but that is because justice and democracy, as well as the actual ideals on which the US is based, are anathema to them. -

Report Thai Minister Urges Public to Halt Handouts to Reduce Begging
“Begging has existed for years,” Varawut stated, “but it’s important to understand that it’s illegal under Thai law.” Uh, there is a highly organized group nationwide that begs. Called the monkhood. They even have audacity to call what they collect their booty in "begging bowls" Okay, lame attempt at humor... BUT Thais believe they do gain merit by giving to beggars, be they monks or lay people, so this latest drive will fall on deaf ears -
