Late last week, the two Republican FEC commissioners blocked an investigation into whether Russians used the National Rifle Association (NRA) to pump millions of dollars into the effort to help Donald Trump get elected in 2016. Continue reading “FEC Blocks Investigation into Russia-NRA Ties”
The huge mainstream media coverage of ‘Operation YellowHammer’ is a deliberate leak, not by a Remainer within the Tory ranks or cabinet – it is a leak deliberately designed to re-align public thinking on what to expect. Do not forget that in The Times article all the information provided is the minimum expected by government officials as a direct result of a hard Brexit. Just over a year ago, the hard Brexit scenario was not on the cards but specific risk and threat reports had been delivered to government officials. The main one, at the time, was called the ‘Doomsday plan’. Continue reading “Forget ‘Operation YellowHammer’ – the original one is called ‘The Doomsday Plan’”

While I was missing lunch, a crime scene played out in the office lobby below me. My coworker and friend Leo wasn’t armed, but he had played the quick-thinking and inadvertent hero, disarming a young man on a mission to kill me and as many of my colleagues as possible. T Continue reading “The Southern Poverty Law Center is a hate-based scam that nearly caused me to be murdered”
