https://www.hln.be/nieuws(...)verdwijnen~ac07e076/quote:De New York Military Academy heeft de schoolresultaten van oud-leerling Donald Trump in 2011 verborgen nadat oud-studenten en machtige vrienden van de huidige Amerikaanse president hadden aangedrongen de documenten aan hen over te maken. Dat schrijft The Washington Post. De directeur en de hoofdopzichter van de militaire academie waar Trump eind jaren 50 en begin jaren 60 vijf jaar studeerde, vertellen aan de Amerikaanse krant dat ze in 2011 onder druk werden gezet door voormalige studenten en zakenrelaties van Trump. Dat gebeurde amper enkele dagen nadat Trump president Obama had uitgedaagd zijn schoolresultaten “bekend te maken” en te ontkennen dat hij een “verschrikkelijk slechte student” was geweest.
Wat Cohen zei hierover is nu bevestigdquote:The Washington Post brengt het verhaal naar buiten na de getuigenis van Trumps ex-advocaat Michael Cohen vorige week. Die zei in zijn lange verklaring voor het Huis van Afgevaardigden dat hij van Trump de opdracht kreeg zijn vroegere scholen te bedreigen nooit zijn studieresultaten te openbaren.

quote:A second federal judge has issued a court order to block the Trump administration's plans to include a citizenship question on the 2020 census.
U.S. District Judge Richard Seeborg of California found that the administration's decision to add the question violated administrative law.
The judge also ruled that it was unconstitutional because it prevents the government from carrying out its mandate to count every person living in the U.S. every 10 years.
"In short, the inclusion of the citizenship question on the 2020 Census threatens the very foundation of our democratic system — and does so based on a self-defeating rationale," Seeborg wrote in a 126-page opinion released Wednesday.
Plans to add the question have already been halted by an earlier ruling in New York by U.S. District Judge Jesse Furman.
The Supreme Court is scheduled to hold a hearing about the New York ruling on April 23. This latest ruling will likely be appealed to the high court.SPOILEROm spoilers te kunnen lezen moet je zijn ingelogd. Je moet je daarvoor eerst gratis Registreren.

quote:Officials and staffers in the U.S. embassy in Riyadh said they were not read in on the details of Jared Kushner’s trip to Saudi Arabia or the meetings he held with members of the country’s royal court last week, according to three sources with knowledge of the trip. And that’s causing concern not only in the embassy but also among members of Congress.
On his trip to the Middle East, Kushner stopped in Riyadh. While there, he met with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and King Salman to discuss U.S.-Saudi cooperation, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and economic investment in the region, according to the White House.
But no one from the embassy in Riyadh was in the meetings, according to those same sources. The State Department did have a senior official in attendance, but he was not part of the State Department team in Saudi. He is a senior member of the department focused on Iran, according to a source with direct knowledge of the official’s presence in Riyadh.
“The Royal Court was handling the entire schedule,” one congressional source told The Daily Beast, adding that officials in the U.S. embassy in Riyadh had insight into where Kushner was when in Saudi Arabia. “But that is normal for his past trips.”
Kushner, who has developed a personal relationship with the crown prince, embarked on several trips to Saudi Arabia over the last several years. On one occasion, he traveled overseas without announcing his trip publicly. He often travels to the region with Middle East envoy Jason Greenblatt.SPOILEROm spoilers te kunnen lezen moet je zijn ingelogd. Je moet je daarvoor eerst gratis Registreren.

Russian Linked to Manafort Is a Shadowy Presencetwitter:Tara_Mckelvey twitterde op donderdag 07-03-2019 om 15:31:53Konstantin Kilimnik won’t be in the courtroom where Paul Manafort will be sentenced, but his presence will be felt. As @brett_forrest explains, Manafort lied about his ties to Kilimnik, a transgression that might be discussed before the sentencing today. https://t.co/rwWHl7zTOg reageer retweet
quote:Special counsel Robert Mueller has accused Konstantin Kilimnik of having “ties to Russian intelligence,” while a federal judge has described this allegation as an “undisputed core” of Mr. Mueller’s probe into Russian interference in the 2016 election.
Mr. Mueller’s prosecutors have been investigating whether Mr. Kilimnik, a Russian citizen and onetime colleague of former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort, was a conduit for information between the Trump presidential campaign and the Kremlin, court documents have shown.
On Thursday, Mr. Kilimnik’s name may come up in court when Mr. Manafort appears for sentencing in Virginia for tax and bank fraud convictions related to his business activities. That is because a plea deal Mr. Manafort reached to give him potential leniency in exchange for cooperating with Mr. Mueller was derailed in part by a judge’s finding that he lied to prosecutors about conversations he had with Mr. Kilimnik.
Still, even after Mr. Manafort is sentenced, it is likely to remain a mystery whether Mr. Kilimnik—who had a multifaceted career in Ukraine and Moscow—played any role in Russian meddling.
Mr. Kilimnik, who lives in Moscow out of reach of U.S. prosecutors, doesn’t face any charges of involvement in Russia’s interference in the U.S. elections. Rather, he was indicted last year by a grand jury empaneled by Mr. Mueller on charges of witness tampering related to an unregistered Manafort lobbying effort in Ukraine in 2012.SPOILEROm spoilers te kunnen lezen moet je zijn ingelogd.

quote:Hiding in Plain Sight: PAC-Connected Activists Set Up ‘Local News’ Outlets
On 6 February 2017, a website of uncertain origin named “The Tennessee Star” was born. At the time, it was unclear who funded or operated this “local newspaper,” which was largely filled with freely licensed content from organizations tied to conservative mega-donors. After some prodding by Politico in early 2018, the Tennessee Star revealed its primary architects to be three Tea Party-connected conservative activists: Michael Patrick Leahy, Steve Gill, and Christina Botteri.
Now, a Snopes investigation reveals in detail how these activists used the appearance of local newspapers to promote messages paid for or supported by outside or undisclosed interests. Gill, for example, is the political editor of the Tennessee Star, but he also owns a media consulting company that at least one candidate and one Political Action Committee (PAC) paid before receiving positive coverage in the Tennessee Star. Several Star writers have in the past or currently work for PACs or political campaigns that they write about, without disclosing that fact. Though its owners claim that the Tennessee Star is funded by advertising revenue, it appears to be supported by wealthy benefactors. Whatever the Tennessee Star is, it is not a local newspaper producing transparent journalism.
But this story is about more than just the Tennessee Star. Leahy, Botteri, and Gill have been expanding their version of journalism to other battleground states in the run-up to the 2020 presidential election. They are, they say, co-founders of a new, Delaware-registered company, Star News Digital Media, Inc., whose explicit strategy is to target battleground states with conservative news. So far, Leahy, Gill, and Botteri have added The Ohio Star and The Minnesota Sun to their network of purportedly local newspapers. These papers are effective carbon copies of the Tennessee Star.
If you were to search for these three “newspapers” in Google, they would each show up described identically as the “most reliable” newspapers in their respective locales, providing “unbiased updates on Investigative Reports, Thoughtful Opinion, Sports, Lifestyle”:Komt dit soort heimelijke online soortement astroturfing nou overal voor of zijn het met name de ultra-conservatieve miljardairs die dit toepassen?SPOILEROm spoilers te kunnen lezen moet je zijn ingelogd.

ALEXANDRIA, Va. (Reuters) - The U.S. judge in the Virginia trial of President Donald Trump’s former campaign chairman Paul Manafort on Thursday overruled a defense request that could have led to some leniency in his sentencing for bank and tax fraud.
U.S. District Judge T.S. Ellis, who could effectively deliver a life sentence to Manafort, 69, said the veteran Republican political consultant should not receive credit for accepting responsibility for his crimes.
Further, before recessing Manafort’s sentencing hearing for 15 minutes, he sided with the government in saying the sentencing guidelines were properly calculated. Prosecutors have said they would call for 19-1/2 to 24 years in prison.

Nee, natuurlijk bizar verschil. Gebaseerd op de strafmaat kan ik me voorstellen dat Mueller in beroep gaat, maar we zullen zien.quote:Op vrijdag 8 maart 2019 01:16 schreef Kijkertje het volgende:

Dat hij voor andere misdaden volgende week straf krijgt kan deze rechter toch geen rekening mee houden
Als je 24 jaar eist, en de verdachte krijgt er 4 en je gaat niet in beroep ben je al je geloofwaardigheid kwijt.quote:Op vrijdag 8 maart 2019 01:17 schreef ExtraWaskracht het volgende:

Komt bij dat Manafort niet de eerste en wsl niet de laatste zal zijn uit de omgeving van de President van Amerika die schuldig verklaard is/wordt aan misdaden.

'Justice is bought': Paul Manafort sentencing draws accusations of privilegequote:White privilege:
Paul Manafort hides $55m in secret offshore accts to avoid paying $6m tax, defrauds 3 banks of $25m, lies, shows no remorse, sentence recommend 19-24 yrs, gets only 47 mths.
Crystal Mason accidentally votes in 2016 U.S. election, shows remorse, gets 5 yrs jail.

Manafort gaat de bak in! Zelfs al is dit minder dan we hadden verwacht. Ze gooien je in de VS zo maar als blanke niet voor jaren achter slot en grendel. Je zou je moeten voorstellen dat Manafort een kleurtje had gehad, dan zou hij de komende 30 jaar zijn biceps oppompen tussen de homies, nadat ze hem van achter compleet total loss hebben geragd en hem voor de rest van zijn leven onmogelijk maken dat hij ooit nog een knetterende scheet kan laten.quote:Op vrijdag 8 maart 2019 12:11 schreef Montov het volgende:
