George H.W. Bush dead at 94 | 01 Dec 2018 | Former US President George H.W. Bush has died at age 94 in Houston, according to his spokesperson Jim McGrath. Born into privilege and a tradition of service, Bush was a son of a senator, celebrated World War II combat pilot, student athlete, Texas oilman, Republican congressman, national party chairman, pioneering diplomat and spy chief [who likely oversaw the CIA assets assigned to the JFK kill team]. After his own 1980 presidential campaign came up short, he served two terms as Ronald Reagan's vice president before reaching the pinnacle of political power by winning the 1988 presidential election, soundly defeating Democrat Michael Dukakis. After losing the White House in 1992, Bush became a widely admired political elder who leapt out of airplanes to mark birthday milestones.

According to the excerpts of the assessment reported by the Journal, the crown prince told associates in August 2017 "we could possibly lure [Khashoggi] outside Saudi Arabia and make arrangements," if the crown prince could not convince the dissident Saudi journalist, who was living in Virginia, to return to Saudi Arabia. The Journal noted that it was unclear from the excerpts whether the comments came directly from the crown prince or from someone describing his communications.

In a blow to President Donald Trump, senators voted 63-37 to take forward a motion on ending US support.

ISIS to launch false flag chemical attack on Syrian Kurds; Russian military watching closely --The terrorists want to frame Damascus for the attack to trigger new US-led airstrikes. | 28 Nov 2018 | Islamic State terrorists are plotting to shell Kurdish-led militia with chemical-filled munitions in Deir ez-Zor, Syria, Russian military said. Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS [but still I-CIA-SIS]) has launched production of toxin-filled mortar shells in the east of the Deir ez-Zor province, Russian military said on Wednesday. The shells are filled with chemicals by a crew of 11 terrorists, who received foreign training and came to Syria specifically to carry out the false-flag attack. IS militants are seeking to shell positions held by the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), framing Damascus for the attack. The terrorists seek to trigger massive airstrikes by the US-led coalition against the government forces, the military said.

 

Election ploy? Poroshenko declares martial law in Ukraine after Kerch standoff | 26 Nov 2018 | Ukraine has declared martial law following a minor skirmish with Russian ships in the Kerch Strait. But why would Kiev take such a dramatic move now, five years after declaring itself at war with Russia? Kiev responded swiftly to the Kerch Strait incident, with President Petro Poroshenko announcing that a period of martial law would be imposed. He also claimed that a "serious threat" of "ground invasion" now exists, citing a "secret" document... Why? The answer many are coming up with is simple but highly plausible: The standoff between the Ukrainian and Russian ships could have been a planned provocation - a domestic ploy aimed at swinging a potentially unwinnable election. 

 

3 Ukrainian navy ships violate Russian border near Crimea, ignore orders to leave - FSB | 25 Nov 2018 | Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) says three Ukrainian navy vessels violated its border on Sunday morning, and are heading for Kerch Strait that lies between Crimea and mainland Russia. "This morning at around 7 a.m. Moscow time, three vessels belonging to Ukrainian armed forces violated the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea... to cross the Russian border," read a statement from Russia's federal security agency FSB, which is responsible for maintaining the country's borders. The vessels are undertaking dangerous maneuvers, and are not obeying lawful instructions from the Russian authorities.

 

Syria blames foreign states for Aleppo 'toxic gas attack', calls for UN to step in | 25 Nov 2018 | The militant shelling of Aleppo was the result of some countries' [aka CIA, MI6] attempts to "facilitate" delivery of chemicals to terrorist groups, Damascus said. Syria is calling for the UN to act against states supporting terrorism. At least 46 people -- including 8 children -- have been hospitalized in Aleppo with symptoms of gas poisoning from chlorine, according to the Russian military who sent special units to assist with treating patients after the attack. Russian experts have used "gas analyzers" to confirm the chemical contamination of the shelled areas in Aleppo, a spokesman for Russia’s Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear Protection Force said. Samples of soil, as well as fragments of buildings and ammunition, were recovered in order to establish the composition of the toxic substance, used by the militants in the attack, he said.

 

CNN commentator sacked for giving pro-Palestine speech at UN | 30 Nov 2018 2018 | CNN has sacked political commentator Marc Lamont Hill after he gave a pro-Palestinian speech at the UN, where he called for justice for Palestinians and said there needs to be "a free Palestine from the river to the sea." A CNN spokesperson told Mediaite that "Marc Lamont Hill is no longer under contract with CNN." The media outlet did not give a reason for the ouster, nor did it explicitly confirm Hill's exit was a result of what he said at the UN. Speaking at the pro-Palestine meeting at the UN on Wednesday, Hill urged the international community to boycott Israel, and called for a "free Palestine from the river to the sea."

 

North Korea detonates DMZ guard posts at southern border | 20 Nov 2018 | North Korea blew up 10 of its front-line guard posts in the Demilitarized Zone separating the two Koreas on Tuesday in accordance with agreements made with South Korea earlier this year. The explosions were carried out simultaneously within a four-minute time frame after the North notified the South of the project, according to South Korea's Defense Ministry. North Korean soldiers have been destroying the brick structures over the past couple of weeks. Analysts said they most likely decided to demolish the guard posts all at once to meet the Nov. 30 deadline.

"China has agreed to reduce and remove tariffs on cars coming into China from the U.S.," the president tweeted. "Currently the tariff is 40%."

Trump will formally cancel NAFTA to press Congress to approve new trade deal | 02 Dec 2018 | President Donald Trump said late Saturday he will formally terminate the North American Free Trade Agreement soon, a move designed to put pressure on Congress to approve a new deal he signed during the G-20 summit. "I'll be terminating it within a relatively short period of time," Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One as he flew back to Washington after a two-day meeting in Argentina with the leaders of other major world economies. Trump signed a new deal here Friday with the president of Mexico and Canada's prime minister, following through on a campaign promise he made to renegotiate the long controversial NAFTA agreement. The move will give Congress six months to accept that new agreement or revert to pre-NAFTA trade rules.

 

Trump signs NAFTA replacement deal ahead of the G20 summit | 30 Nov 2018 | US President Donald Trump and his Canadian and Mexican counterparts signed a replacement NAFTA deal on Friday during a ceremony on the sidelines of the G20 summit. The ceremonial signing does not mean the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement -- the USMCA, as it has been rebranded -- will now go into effect. The deal still needs to win congressional approval in Washington, where key members of both political parties have already expressed significant concerns. "I don't expect to have much of a problem," Trump said during the ceremony.

 

48 police officers injured at Yellow Vest protests in Toulouse | 02 Dec 2018 | More than 50 people, most of them police officers, were injured in Toulouse during protests against fuel price hikes. Yellow Vest demonstrations turned into riots, making the southern French city and Paris look like battlefields. As France struggles to come to grips with the intensity of widespread protests against increasing fuel prices, which have grown violent over the past weeks, authorities in Toulouse said on Sunday that 57 people, including 48 police officers, had been injured in clashes during Saturday's riots. Five police officers were hospitalized.

 

Parliament seizes cache of Facebook internal papers [Yes!] | 24 Nov 2018 | Parliament has used its legal powers to seize internal Facebook [FaCIAbook] documents in an extraordinary attempt to hold the US social media giant to account after chief executive Mark Zuckerberg repeatedly refused to answer MPs' questions. The cache of documents is alleged to contain significant revelations about Facebook decisions on data and privacy controls that led to the Cambridge Analytica scandal. It is claimed they include confidential emails between senior executives, and correspondence with Zuckerberg. Damian Collins, the chair of the culture, media and sport select committee, invoked a rare parliamentary mechanism to compel the founder of a US software company, Six4Three, to hand over the documents during a business trip to London. In another exceptional move, parliament sent a serjeant at arms to his hotel with a final warning and a two-hour deadline to comply with its order. When the software firm founder failed to do so, it's understood he was escorted to parliament. He was told he risked fines and even imprisonment if he didn't hand over the documents.

"Dr. Corsi has been criminally threatened and coerced to tell a lie and call it the truth," the complaint states.

FBI Raids Home of Whistleblower on Clinton Foundation, Lawyer Says --The whistleblower, Dennis Nathan Cain, had turned the documents over to the Department of Justice's inspector general and both the House and Senate Intelligence committees, according to the lawyer. --The FBI rummaged through Cain's home for six hours, even after Cain handed over the documents, according to Socarras. | 29 Nov 2018 | FBI agents raided the home of a recognized Department of Justice whistleblower who privately delivered documents pertaining to the Clinton Foundation and Uranium One to a government watchdog, according to the whistleblower's attorney, Michael Socarras.

The delivered documents also show that then-FBI Director Robert Mueller failed to investigate allegations of criminal misconduct pertaining to Rosatom and to other Russian government entities attached to Uranium One, the document reviewed by TheDCNF alleges.

 

Trump threatens to declassify 'devastating' docs about Democrats | 28 Nov 2018 | In a wide-ranging, exclusive interview with The Post, President Trump said Wednesday that if House Democrats launched probes into his administration -- which he called "presidential harassment" -- they'd pay a heavy price. "If they go down the presidential harassment track, if they want go and harass the president and the administration, I think that would be the best thing that would happen to me. I'm a counter-puncher and I will hit them so hard they'd never been hit like that," he said during a 36-minute Oval Office sitdown. The commander-in-chief said he could declassify FISA warrant applications and other documents from Robert Mueller's probe -- and predicted the disclosure would expose the FBI, the Justice Department and the Clinton campaign as being in cahoots to set him up.

 

Jordan to lead Oversight GOP, Collins to lead Judiciary | 29 Nov 2018 | House Republicans have named Reps. Jim Jordan and Doug Collins to be President Donald Trump's top defenders on two key investigative panels next Congress. The Republican Steering Committee, which chooses committee leaders, unanimously elected Jordan to be the top Republican on the Oversight Committee after his friend, Freedom Caucus Chairman Mark Meadows, withdrew his bid for the job at the last minute. The two men had settled on a plan weeks ago that Jordan would seek the ranking Republican job on the House Judiciary Committee -- the panel that deals with impeachment -- while Meadows (R-N.C.) would go for Oversight.

 

Cohen Pleads Guilty to Lying to Congress, Critics Say Mueller Is Fishing for Crimes | 29 Nov 2018 | Michael Cohen pleaded guilty Thursday to lying to Congress about the length of time the company headed for his then-boss President Donald Trump was involved in a real estate venture known as the "Moscow Project," according to the nine-page criminal charge released by the Office of Special Counsel. The criminal charge could carry a five-year sentence and a 250,000 fine. In the unexpected plea deal, Cohen, who was at the federal court house in New York on Thursday, admitted to making false statements to the Senate Intelligence Committee in 2017 about plans to build a Trump Tower in Moscow. The criminal charge also stated that Cohen had originally told the Senate committee that the project was no longer pursued after January 2016, just before the Iowa Caucuses. However, Cohen said that in fact it was being discussed until June 2016, during Trump's campaign. He also told Mueller's team that he had considered meeting with Russian officials but never actually did.

"It was never discussed, but I wouldn't take it off the table. Why would I take it off the table?" the president said during an Oval Office interview.

"If you told the truth, you go to jail," Trump said.

Gastelum said that due to the arrival of the caravan, he could be forced to raise taxes for Tijuana's 1.7 million residents, who have already suffered from Sunday's clashes on the US border, Fox News reported.

DHS: Convicted murderer arrested for illegal entry as part of migrant caravan | 30 Nov 2018 | A convicted murderer from Honduras was arrested after illegally entering the U.S. with members of the migrant caravan, Department of Homeland Security officials said Friday. The arrest Nov. 24 came the same day that an alleged member of the MS-13 crime gang from Honduras was arrested for entering the U.S. illegally, officials said.

Reporting just over the southern border in Tijuana, Mexico, Gadi Schwartz took viewers on a walking tour through the "inner sanctum" of the shelter for the caravan, which consists of Central American migrants...

U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials have suspended northbound and southbound vehicle and pedestrian crossings at the San Ysidro port of entry, officials told Fox News, and tear gas was apparently being fired from the U.S. side of the border...

Obama agents pepper-sprayed migrants: History challenges caravan response outrage | 26 Nov 2018 | Democrats are expressing outrage that U.S. border agents on Sunday shot rounds of tear gas at caravan migrants who threw rocks at law enforcement while trying to breach the U.S.-Mexico border. But critics hammering the Trump administration are glossing over a similar episode that occurred under then-President Barack Obama. In 2013, during the Obama administration, Border Patrol agents reportedly used pepper spray to fend off a group of approximately 100 migrants who attempted to rush the same San Ysidro port of entry. A San Diego Union-Tribune article at the time said agents fired "pepper balls" and used other "intermediate use-of-force devices" to repel the crowd. The migrants in that confrontation also reportedly threw rocks and bottles at U.S. authorities.

 

Nancy Pelosi nominated by House Democrats to lead them in new Congress | 28 Nov 2018 | Nancy Pelosi has been nominated by House Democrats to lead them in the new Congress, but she still faces a showdown vote for House speaker when lawmakers convene in January.

California 'wildfires' released one year's worth of power pollution | 02 Dec 2018 | Forest Direct Energy Weapon-engendered fires in California this year released carbon emissions equivalent to the amount produced to power the state's electricity for one year, according to a new analysis from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). The 'wildfires,' including last month's record-breaking fires in Northern and Southern California, released 68 million tons of carbon dioxide as they incinerated huge swaths of land and destroyed thousands of homes this year.
