CIA concludes Saudi crown prince ordered Jamal Khashoggi’s assassination Audio recordings, intercepted phone calls and other intelligence link Mohammed bin Salman to killing that Saudis say was conducted by rogue elements.

A reminder that seven years ago almost to the day, the CIA determined that Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the killing of @washingtonpost.com journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

I hired and worked with Jamal for a year.

Presidential Crimes - Boston Review Torture must be addressed through legal instruments, not simply through the electoral repudiation of bad policy.

“The incalculable damage left by Bush and Cheney’s day-in-and-day-out contempt for national and international law includes the power to sweep forward in time and trivialize into a matter of personal preference any future president’s adherence to the law.“

There is some sad irony in McClatchy shutting its DC bureau the same day that Dick Cheney died.

That bureau (then Knight-Ridder) did some of the best, most skeptical reporting anywhere in the run-up to the Iraq War. And they took a lot of shit for it at the time.

Dick Cheney is portrayed as a worried man sitting on a flaming rock, surrounded by playful devils holding a trident, a towel, and a bottle. A speech bubble reads, "We do not torture."

Glad to see I’m not the only one sad to see that Dick Cheney has left this earth. May he get what he deserves in hell for eternity. 🔥☄️👺👿

This is the president of the United States taking a break from gold-and-marble interior renovations to say he’ll defy a court order to feed hungry Americans.

Nero would be proud.

She and the whole administration never answer questions directly- they instead deflect, blame, or lie, just as every other malignant narcissist does.

With JPMorgan Chase Dodging Epstein Inquiry, Wyden Investigation Drills Down On Bank Executives’ Unexplained Conduct | The United States Senate Committee on Finance With JPMorgan Chase Dodging Epstein Inquiry, Wyden Investigation Drills Down On Bank Executives’ Unexplained Conduct

Jamie Dimon really thinks Congress and the American people will believe that only one top exec at his multi-billion dollar bank enabled Epstein. Be serious. Today I’m giving Dimon and JPMC another chance to explain why they appeared to enable Epstein's trafficking for years.

New developments in my 3 year Epstein investigation, this time regarding JP Morgan Chase and its CEO, Jamie Dimon. This is a long thread, but worth sticking around for.
