.Trump Administration Plans To Invoke State Secrets In Case Against Psychologists Behind CIA Torture Program

President Donald Trump’s administration informed a federal court that it plans to invoke the state secrets privilege to prevent two CIA witnesses from testifying on the role of psychologists in developing and
administering the CIA torture program.

One of the witnesses is Gina Haspel, who was appointed CIA deputy director. Haspel briefly ran a “black site” in Thailand, where Abu Zubaydah and Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri were both waterboarded. She also played a key role in the destruction of videotapes that contained evidence of torture against Zubaydah and Nashiri.

.Syria’s “White Helmets” Go to Hollywood

The netflix movie “The White Helmets” may win an Oscar in the “short documentary” category at the Academy Awards on Sunday February 26. It will not be a surprise, despite the fact that the group is a fraud and the movie is a contrived infomercial.

  “The oft-overlooked Oscar category of best documentary short has a dramatic theme this year: Three of the five films nominated are about Syrians, and each offers an intimate, eye-witness account of the devastation in that country.”

      Well, there’s cooking and then there’s cooking and having to do the dishes after. I use lots of paper plates.
      - Edwin

        That’s what I do too. When I sit down to dinner, most stuff has been cleaned and is on the rack drying.

        I hope your new “hubby” is like that cuz that’s the kind of stuff that breaks up “marriages”.
        
        I keep a bowl of soapy water with a sponge in it next to the sink and I have a drying rack above the sink.

        Many years ago my friend and her hubby had a major blowout because he threw a wet dishrag in the sink. Lasted over a week and all the dirty laundry came out.

        I let the bugs clean them in summer. But it’s winter so that strategy aint working out.

        Maybe if you stick them outside stray animals will lick them clean.

      Lemmy lays it on kinda thick but that were his job.Hated military monstrosities but collected nazi uniform bits. We had us a roomy for a while who was a young feller from Poland who somehow landed in central Illinois to finish high school. He had some issues. Hid his empty 1.5 liter vodka bottles behind the furnace. I played that Lemmy piece once and he frantically asked “WHAT IS THAT”? Musta triggered something.

  Arrests Among Dwindling Demonstrators as Dakota Pipeline Camp Cleared. http://www.reuters.com/article/us-north-dakota-pipeline-idUSKBN16225M:
  
  Dozens of armed law enforcement officials swept through a protest camp near the site of the Dakota Access pipeline Thursday, clearing the camp that for months served as a base of opposition to the multi-billion dollar project.
  
  About 50 police in riot gear, aided by National Guardsmen, moved slowly through the camp in Cannon Ball, North Dakota, checking structures for any of the several dozen protesters who had stayed beyond the Wednesday
  deadline to evacuate.
  
  The Oceti Sakowin Camp was completely vacated shortly after 2:00 p.m. CST, the Morton County Sheriff’s Department said in a statement. Forty-seven people were arrested on Thursday, said Maxine Herr, spokeswoman for the department. About a dozen Humvee vehicles entered the camp at around 12:30 p.m. CST and a helicopter flew low overhead, with more police officers and National Guard members stationed outside the site.
  
  Around 200 law enforcement officials from North Dakota, Indiana, Wisconsin and Alabama took part in the operation, Herr said.
  
  “Things went very smoothly. We are very happy with the operations,” she said.
  
  Members of the Army Corps of Engineers, which owns the land where the camp was built, also began entering the site for cleanup efforts. By Thursday afternoon, heavy equipment was being used to tear down structures at the
  site.

Nomiki’s DNC Race News: Follow The Money (TYT) – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okSpEXZYOys&feature=youtu.be (Streamed live 6 hours ago)

Summary:

Democrats have lost over a thousand seats in eight years. Instead of focusing their funds and resources on winning elections and building state parties, over a billion dollars has been allocated to contracts for consultants from 2015 to currently. One consultant who receives millions of dollars from the DNC and the Hillary campaign, Jennifer O’Malley Dillon, has been campaigning for Tom Perez. Jennifer is also co-chair of the DNC’s new Rules Committee. Which means that one of the rule-setters has a big conflict of interest within the DNC. Other high-powered contractors also have powerful positions within the DNC. In summary, as if there was any doubt, the DNC is infested with rampant conflicts of interest and is contaminated with “leaders” who also have big contracts with the DNC and with Hillary’s campaign. These conflicts of interest cost the DNC hundreds of millions of dollars that could have been spent on organizing and winning elections instead of giving it to incestuous, ineffective insiders.

        How’s the weather where you are? I must confess I am suddenly very curious about all things Russian now. To me it is a fabled and mysterious place of great beauty.

    I expect that there will still be enough Wall Street & Pay Day Loan cash for Chuck S., Debbie W. and the rest of the DNC to keep the party on life-support as a defense against the threat of a real opposition party arising.
