The Russian government invested in social media companies Facebook and Twitter through Russian-American billionaire and venture capitalist Yuri Milner, according to documents leaked as part of the Paradise Papers. Records show VTB Bank and energy company Gazprom, both linked to the Kremlin, worked with Milner's investment fund DST Global to buy stakes in Facebook and Twitter before selling them when the companies went public in 2012 and 2013 respectively. VTB Bank initially paid $191 million in 2011 to control 5 percent of Twitter at the time of its public offering, while a Gazprom subsidiary financed a business that partnered with...

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/3530542/posts I wrote a blog post on the topic of BTC moving rapidly toward becoming the dominant "World Cirrency". The intentional misspelling of the word "CURRRENCY" was intended to draw attention to the fact that a decentralized transaction accounting system aka BLOCKCHAIN is really the most important part of the "value". Not the BTC or fractional BTC currently valued at about $1200 ea or ETH currently valued at about $20 each

Two Texas electors voted for different Republican politicians: Gov. John Kasich of Ohio and...

Ever since 1988, Republican candidates for all offices, particularly those running for President, have tried to channel Ronald Reagan. The conservative icon is the shining example of how a proper right-wing perspective has the power to make the country prosper domestically and make it respected around the world. In three decades, no candidate has come as close to truly picking up the Reagan mantle and bringing his ideals back to the White House than Ted Cruz. As The Atlantic points out, the sentiment from voters is very similar to what was happening in 1979 and 1980. The Judeo-Christian right had...

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- More than a dozen parking spaces at a Metropolitan government facility have misspelled words, and no one noticed until Channel 4 pointed it out Friday. Related: Watch This Story The word "owned" is misspelled 16 times in spaces outside the County Clerk's office off French Landing Drive at MetroCenter. It's a parking lot, and most people usually don't pay attention to what's on the ground until something is misspelled. Words on the first three parking spots are spelled correctly, but spot No. 4 is misspelled. It should read "Metro Owned Vehicle Parking Only;" however, someone switched up...

Not bipartisan? Try telling that to Sen. Olympia Snowe. On CBS’s Face the Nation Sunday, Sen. John McCain scoffed at the notion that the support President Barack Obama’s stimulus proposal has received from Snowe, Sen. Susan Collins, Arlen Specter, constituted bipartisanship. “[T]his agreement is not bipartisan,” McCain told moderator Bob Schieffer. “I've been in bipartisan agreements, many. This is three Republican senators. Every Republican congressman voted against it in the House, plus Democrats. And all but three Republicans stayed together on this. That's not bipartisanship. That's just picking off a couple of senators.” On Monday, Snowe took issue with that...

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Senate has killed an alternative economic stimulus plan by Sen. John McCain that would have cut income and payroll taxes but spent far less than President Obama's plan. The party-line 57-40 vote against McCain's $421 billion plan came Thursday as a group of moderate Democrats and Republicans struggled to cut up to $100 billion from Obama's version.
