For those who recall speculation surrounding an Argentine submarine that went missing last year (Nov 15, 2017), it’s been found in deep water where it sank.

“Macri promised a full investigation after the submarine was lost. Federal police raided naval bases and other buildings last January as part of the probe, soon after the government dismissed the head of the navy.”

Another walk down memory lane. For those who recall that the Obama era “Magnitsky Act” said to form the core of POTUS’ 2017 EO freezing the rights of human rights abusers, two updates.

1. Senator McCain was posthumously awarded the 2018 Sergei Magnitsky Human Rights Award in a ceremony in London on Thursday night.

2. “Holding Khashoggi’s Murderers Accountable With The Global Magnitsky Act”,

“Amid the fallout of the Jamal Khashoggi saga, there is growing talk of the U.S. government using the Global Magnitsky Act to sanction certain Saudi individuals connected to the journalist’s premeditated murder. As Democrats prepare to take control of the House of Representatives next year, there will be mounting pressure on the White House to act against Riyadh using this legislation that was enacted during Barack Obama’s presidency.”

Re the missing submarine that was found:

Maybe that’s when Q dropped “The Hunt For” ... and simply posted “Red October.”

Still mostly lurking and learning. Confused by initials in Q post 2476 which was a re-post from January. Got it all except AM. Tried the LexiQon, but still could not get it. Can you help me, please? My brain works much slower than it used to.
