In May 2019, the FBI received a Congressional criminal referral from Mark Meadows alleging Nellie Ohr gave knowingly false statements in her testimony before Congress regarding (1) Nellie’s testimony that she had no knowledge of the DOJ’s Trump/Russia investigation; (2) her testimony that she had no knowledge of the DOJ’s “investigations on Russia.”
The fact that Nellie Ohr, wife of senior DOJ official Bruce Ohr, lied to Congress has been essentially established for a number of years. The Congressional referral discusses emails from the DOJ asking Bruce Ohr if his wife could speak with DOJ officials regarding her Russia research. Bruce asked Nellie if she would speak to the DOJ, to which Nellie emailed “Sure!” Nellie would later provide these officials with her Russia analysis.
But the Congressional referral just scratched the surface. Nellie’s “open-source research”, compiled while employed by Fusion GPS, was passed to the FBI by Bruce Ohr on a number of occasions. Recall that the subjects of her research included Paul Manafort, Carter Page, and Michael Flynn. Based on the timing of the disclosures (December 2016, for example) and internal FBI documents, Nellie Ohr’s research was used to help corroborate the Steele Dossier. Funny how that worked: a Fusion GPS employee corroborating a Fusion GPS work product. But it gets worse - Nellie Ohr’s research also informed and contributed to the Steele Dossier.
Before the Congressional referral was released, Nellie Ohr lied to Congress about the date she received her HAM radio license. Nellie testified that she received her HAM license in 2015, stating it was “well before” her employment at Fusion GPS. Records we received via FOIA showed her HAM license was applied for, and granted on, May 23, 2016 – during her employment at Fusion GPS.
The US and EU auto industries are running out of essential magnets, and some production lines have already halted, as China’s rare earth restrictions stay firm.
Yep, and I think Putin's had enough. Ukraine better expect massive missile attacks at all major cities now.
It didn't help things to have Lindsey Graham & Blumenthal in Ukraine at the time of the drone attacks in Russia with news saying the US provided assistance in the planning of it.
What the hell is Trump even being told about these aggressions by our DOD & CIA?

Cloudflare is used by some real troublemakers for exactly the opposite of what it claims. The different Cloudflare net blocks are very different from each other in their behavior, just exactly like #Fastly, which owns an Israeli spyware company and half of it's addresses are a threat you should block. (Fastly 146... was an #Israeli spyware company, that was absorbed by Fastly)
#Cloudflare #Fastly Furthermore, Fastly owns #Medallia which is itself spyware posing as a survey business. When a company asks you to take a 3rd party survey, isn't this a simple enough task for them to manage? Not the way Medalia does it, to you. 😉 And who owns all these companies? Investment bankers. It's not too hard to find this in the business journals and wikipedia, but it changes. It changes when a corporation is so disgraced it's name becomes known.
I've been a fan of @pluralistic for a long time but never read any of his fiction. Just read "Model Minority" in his _Radicalized_ anthology. Wow! Great writing, great story, great message.
Candidate and then President Trump has repeatedly attacked the news media, calling stories he dislikes "fake news," while also spreading false statements from the lectern and via Twitter.
Musk was referencing the Justice Department records concerning the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, who allegedly procured underage girls for sex for a string of famous names.
The world's most powerful man and its richest man are lobbing threats and insults on their rival social media platforms, sparked by disagreements over Trump's "big, beautiful bill."
People are putting so many toppings on cheeseburgers, they're becoming harder and harder to hold. Gaffigan asks, "If you can't confidently hold a cheeseburger while you eat it, is it cheeseburger?"
Apple's lawyers just sent me the strangest email thus far in this litigation.
Last week, I complained their lawyers kept threatening me with harm for no reason & that harassment was aggravating my PTSD & anxiety.
Today it appears their position is that they only communicate in threats, and so they don't know how to proceed if they cannot threaten me, & will seek "guidance" from the court about it.
@hipsterelectron i've loved that song for about 25 year now - it never gets old. I used to have a Squirrel Nut Zippers tshirt but wore it do death. They're fabulous

Nice! By the way, if you ever need more space, once you have the residents board, you can assign a resident to be your maid and pay them gold to expand how much space you have. Costs gold bars tho

21 days was last sunday, my broody hen abandon her eggs last week, I candled them and put a few under another broody hen, got at least one peep today, thought they were all dead:
@relentless_eduardo put a high power light on the eggs to peek through the shell. On the olden day they used a candle an a magnifying glass to focus the light
@Mr. Funk E. Dude I'm 66, wife is 64, we're on our 5th dog and 6th and 7th cats together, it hurts to lose a pet but the joy they bring to use during their life is worth it so we keep adopting when the old pets give up. Sooner or later it will be our turn to give up.
Knowing their personalities and backgrounds, I have been braced for something to happen between them from the beginning. Per my research on Elon and his bio, Elon was emotionally rejected by his father and bullied for his differences at school. So, I assumed his adult foibles were likely rooted in emotional strongholds. I could see Elon's exuberant support of Trump as risky, but I hoped and prayed for the best. I still do. Both are exceptional.

Sparse transformers avoid loading and computing activations with feed forward layer weights whose outputs will eventually be zeroed out. It’s a lossless approach as these weights anyway do not contribute in the current token prediction.
This technique results in 2x faster LLM performance using 30% less memory.
I don’t believe Musk and Trump’s fall out for a minute. It’s just more gossip to change the narrative about the awful things they’re doing to us individually and collectively.
Having said that, the enemy of my enemy is not my friend and I’ll watch the commentary nevertheless.
I make no predictions; I am not a historian, or a seer. But this little mishigas between The Big Boss and Elon? Kinda feels staged for a purpose…just way too overt. It makes for great theater…and a fun way to divert and deflect. I’m sure the dems are over the moon, but the BFF love will be right back…as will Lil X in the Oval Office.
This cheeky upside-down squirrel raids the bird feeder daily. He pendulums back and forth from the tree branch until he gets his little hands on the tray. It’s hilarious. #squirrels
BTW, I pour out the exact same seed mix in a ground feeder which he could access without the Tarzan moves; I think he just enjoys swingin’ in the breeze.
I simply gave up. The squirrels always win. They have limitless time to puzzle out solutions, they're athletic as impossible hell, reckless, and willing to spend far more time at this than me.
Get ready- 1 bill to bring SOPA (ie a US censorship regime geared at giving the copyright cartels the ability to censor anything they want) back wasn't enough, so they've introduced 2 bills now and they've done a good job at keeping it secret to avoid criticism until the last minute. They are going to try and force its passage by mitigating the ability of the people to know what is in it and push back, so speak up and write your congress critters !!!!!
And don't think the VPN or switching DNS providers is necessarily going to get you around the censorship either cause they've got provisions for that too.
Republican House Representative Darrell Issa is working on the introduction of the 'American Copyright Protection Act' (ACPA), a new bill that would enable copyright holders to request site blocking orders against foreign pirate sites.
Communists did house everyone. The world made fun of the "ugly" cement apartment buildings Khrushchev built. This article is truthful. Life inside a Kiev Khrushchyovka: #Soviet architecture in #Ukraine. Now how do they live?
Who invented homelessness? Ronald Reagan. Enough said. The only "homeless" in the US were by choice: they lived in the gutters of West Madison street in Chicago, because cheap booze was handy. The worst thing #Reagan did was to conflate the #Homelessness he created with the wandering winos. Many thousands in the US are impoverished and can not afford housing, or cheap booze. Thank the Nazi who flew Fascism from the #WhiteHouse flagpole.
@indyradio homelessness has always existed under capitalism, and while Reaganomics certainly accelerated the decline, let's not pretend this wasn't a problem before that.
You have not seen the worst.I can remember what I saw in 1984. When Reagan turned all the mental patients in North Lakeview neighborhood of Chicago, no one was prepared. By 1987, it was a different world. Outside of the metropolis, smaller cities were destroyed by "austerity". Iit was literally a War On the Poor, and it continues.
