Manhattan U.S. Attorney Announces Guilty Plea Of U.S. Accountant In Panama Papers Investigation https://www.justice.gov/usao-sdny/pr/manhattan-us-attorney-announces-guilty… "Richard Gaffey went to extraordinary lengths to circumvent U.S. tax laws in order to maintain Harald Joachim von der Goltz's wealth and hide it from the IRS. Using the specialized criminal services of global law firm Mossack Fonseca, Gaffey assisted others in violating U.S. tax laws for decades. Since at least 2000 through 2018, GAFFEY conspired with others to defraud the United States by concealing his clients' assets and investments, and the income generated by those assets and investments, from the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") through fraudulent, deceitful, and dishonest means."

More than a dozen countries are either researching, piloting, or, like China, have ongoing work in place for central bank digital currencies, according to a Bank for International Settlements report published today. "Central banks around the world are investigating a rich set of prototypes," the BIS wrote... While physical cash isn't yet endangered in most places, the experience of a few countries, notably Sweden, China, and even to some extent the UK, shows that a world with much less cash usage is increasingly possible. That's why the BIS, sometimes called the central bank for central banks, published a report sketching out possible designs for a peer-to-peer central bank digital currency. Denounce and avoid these Fiat Spying and Censorship coins.

Steny Hoyer (D-MD) landed today in Israel with 41 other Democratic Representatives for a week-long, all-expenses-paid junket sponsored by the American Israel Education Foundation (AIEF), the educational branch of the lobbying organization American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC)... Ignoring the source links... 41 US elected reps in office traveling at once to one country? That's 10% of that body, not including support and associated political elements... How rare is that, whether to, or even from any other country in the world, under any international situation? Shit these days is beyond bizarre. https://reddit.com/r/Israel_Palestine/comments/cmhc6c/afraid_to_say_their_n… https://reddit.com/r/conspiracy/comments/cmq2gj/israel_buys_owns_the_us_con… https://www.houstonchronicle.com/opinion/outlook/article/To-protect-Israel-… https://www.chron.com/news/houston-texas/houston/article/ACLU-files-complai… https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/371/832/1e3.jpg

Dirtbag Left Hates

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/02/29/us/politics/bernie-sanders-chapo-trap-ho… "The people in the crowd were angry, and Chapo Trap House wanted them to stay that way. The five hosts of the popular socialist podcast wanted everyone to know they had all been lied to. About everything. The media they consumed was fake news aimed to distract them from the only war worth fighting: the class war. Politesse, civility, even pleasure those were tools of the neoliberal oppressor. The right answer is rage." Let the hate feed you.
