Intelligence experts are becoming increasingly convinced that six high end brothels in the suburbs of Boston and Washington, D.C. were set up by a foreign nation as an espionage 'honeytrap'. They believe the brothels – allegedly masterminded by a 41-year-old South Korean woman – targeted politicians, high ranking government officials and defense contractors. But the mystery is which country was behind the scheme. Russia, China, Korea itself, or even Israel are al seen as possibly being behind the scheme. 'Having the Koreans out front could have been a false flag to give China or another country plausible deniability if the...

New York Times editorial board member Mara Gay was furious on today's Morning Joe over Harvard's president Claudine Gay (no relation) being forced to resign. Mara Gay proclaimed "This is an attack on diversity. This is an attack on multiculturalism. I don’t have to say that they’re racist, because you can hear and see the racism in the attacks."In fact, it is the Claudine Gays of the academic world who are the biggest enemies of true diversity -- diversity of ideas. CG's the one, for example, who hounded two Harvard faculty members for failing to toe the DEI line. The...

More than 100 people were killed at an event honoring former Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani on Wednesday in what local authorities are calling a “terrorist” attack. Thousands of Iranians had gathered at Soleimani’s gravesite in Kerman to mark the fourth anniversary of his death — carrying photos of the former head of the Revolutionary Guard’s elite Quds Force when authorities say two bombs went off. The first explosion occurred just 700 meters from Soleimani’s grave, while the second was a kilometer away, Iranian national media reports. Graphic video shared online later showed the crowds running away as emergency crews responded...

Why are every state’s election rolls so dirty – housing tens of thousands of ineligible voters? The reason is voter rolls are never reconciled against other data. Every U.S. corporation must reconcile its financial statements. Cash flow statements must reconcile with the income statement and balance sheet – transparency comes via comparison with known points of reference. Election voter rolls reconcile against NOTHING! Thus, in every state, there are active voters older than Abraham Lincoln – still voting and registering in recent years. Alabama and Kansas for sure! Working with the Georgia election integrity team for months, Fractal developed an...

New York Times writer Mara Gay said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” that she believed Harvard University ex-president Claudine Gay resigned over the right’s racist attacks on “academic freedom,” not the several instances of plagiarism discovered.
