Mike Flynn blames the Jews for being exterminated in WWII because there were “thousands of them and not many guards” and the Jews willingly went along with the Nazis.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
Quote:Prosecutors involved in the Georgia investigation into former President Trump’s attempts to stay in power in 2020 have obtained evidence showing a 2021 voting machine breach was part of a “top-down push” by Trump’s legal team to access sensitive voting software, according to a report published Sunday by CNN.
Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis reportedly will use this evidence when she presents her case before a grand jury next week, CNN reported.
Willis has led an investigation into efforts by Trump and his allies to overturn 2020 election results in Georgia and is expected to announce charges against Trump and more than a dozen others. This would be Trump’s fourth indictment announced in less than 5 months.
The connection between Trump’s attorneys and the voting machine breach in Trump-friendly Coffee County in Georgia has been previously reported. In September 2022, video footage was released that showed a forensics team hired by Trump’s attorney, Sidney Powell, spent hours handling voting equipment on Jan. 7, 2021. The footage showed the team copying data from the voting machines and handling poll pads containing sensitive voter data.
The incident also compelled Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to replace voting machines in the county ahead of the 2022 midterm elections, saying at the time, “To allay the fears being stoked by perennial election deniers and conspiracy theorists, we’re replacing Coffee County’s election machines.”
The new reporting from CNN, however, reveals conversations among key Trump allies ahead of the voter machine breach.
According to text messages, CNN reported, a local elections official who helped facilitate the voting machine breach sent a “written invitation” to Trump’s attorneys six days ahead of the breach. Former Coffee County elections official Misty Hampton reportedly authored the letter. She, along with Rudy Giuliani and Powell, according to CNN, have been questioned on the issue.
The letter giving “written invitation” to access voting machines was shared widely with a group of Trump allies, CNN reported, including with members of the firm Powell hired to help with the operation, Sullivan Strickler.
Giuliani’s attorney, Robert Costello, reportedly told CNN that Giuliani “had nothing to do with this,” and, “You can’t attach Rudy Giuliani to Sidney Powell’s crackpot idea.”
Text messages obtained by CNN, however, seem to reference Giuliani multiple times, referring to him as “the Mayor,” in connection with the “written invitation” and with plans for the breach. Giuliani has been informed he was a target of the investigation in Fulton County.
A Jan. 1, 2021, text message from a Sullivan Strickler employee to a group chat read, “Just landed back in DC with the Mayor huge things starting to come together!” and “Most immediately, we were just granted access – by written invitation! – to Coffee County’s systems. Yay!”
CNN also obtained text messages that showed efforts to gain access to the Coffee County’s voting system started in mid-December.
Hampton, while serving as the top election official in the county, was spreading theories about Dominion voting machines, which caught the attention of Trump officials, who reached out to her to “obtain as much information as possible.”
In early December, Hampton refused to validate the recount results in Georgia by the deadline, delaying certification of Biden’s victory. She represented the only county in Georgia that failed to certify the results of the election, CNN reported.
2024 Republican presidential candidate Will Hurd responded Sunday to the CNN report by describing it as a prime example of why the issue in question, he said, is not a matter of First Amendment rights.
“This is about a president trying to overturn an election and creating a conspiracy. This kind of infrastructure is considered critical infrastructure, and it’s supposed to be defended. The Trump team tried to get access in other places. And they went through the legal process, and the courts gave access to some of the information,” Hurd said in an interview on CNN’s “State of the Union.”
“In this case, they weren’t getting it, so they tried to take it themselves. And, to me, it’s an indication of how fragile our election system is and how Donald Trump’s efforts were making us increase our lack of trust in our systems, and one more example of why Donald Trump is running for president, is because he’s trying to stay out of jail, because, as more of this information comes out and as the American people recognizes the extent of his baggage, they’re getting sick and tired of it,” he continued.
Ivanka’s $360 Million Vancouver Deal Is Reportedly Being Investigated by the F.B.I.
Even Ivanka Trump, the “princess royal” of the West Wing, is being sucked into the vortex of scandal that has encompassed her father’s administration. In the past week, her husband, Jared Kushner, lost his security clearance, lost his P.R. guard dog, was revealed as a top intelligence target for foreign spies, and was reported to have met with banking executives in the White House shortly before his family’s company received nearly half a billion dollars in loans. Donald Trump is said to be is “frustrated with Mr. Kushner, whom he now views as a liability” and “another problem to deal with,” and has suggested that both he and Ivanka move back to New York.
The financing and negotiations surrounding the Trump International Hotel and Tower in Vancouver have come under F.B.I. scrutiny, according to current and former U.S. officials who spoke with CNN. It’s unclear why the F.B.I. is interested in the deal, which dates back to 2013, and in which Ivanka played a key role. But CNN reports that foreign buyers involved, as well as the timing of the $360 million project’s opening in February 2017, may have caught the agency’s attention.

The party of small government wants to police children who have nicknames
Quote:Under a new rule adopted by the Florida Board of Education in July, parents must fill out a consent form before their children can go by a nickname in public schools. If Thomas wants to be called Tommy in the classroom, or Katherine prefers that teachers refer to her as Kat, they will need their parents' written permission.
The Board of Education said the change was made "to protect the fundamental rights of parents." If the form is not completed and a parent does not sign off, school staff must refer to students by their legal name.
