"Adams has consistently said he is cooperating with the investigations and has denied wrongdoing through the steady drumbeat of searches, seizures and departures of top members of his administration.

But as news of the indictment spread Wednesday night, he began to mount a defiant defense that he was being targeted by the federal government for his political views, adopting language similar to former President Donald Trump and other politicians accused of crimes."

"The indictment alleges illegal actions stretching back to 2014, from when he was Brooklyn Borough president.

“For nearly a decade, Adams sought and accepted improper valuable benefits, such as luxury international travel, including from wealthy foreign businesspeople and at least one Turkish government official seeking to gain influence over him,” the indictment reads."

1: She has family in Iran still that she talks to every day.

Her: All my family, all my friends, they are in Iran. I still can talk to them sometimes when they have internet. And none of these guys, none of them, they are Iranian. We are. I'm Iranian. I know better than all of this.

People in Iran, they're happy. They're fucking happy because 47 years they fought against this regime. We tried, we tried to protest, to change this regime. But we couldn't because they killed more than 50,000 people just in two days, just in fucking two days.

So right now, the only way, the only way that we get off this regime is this war. So please, please just shut the fuck up if you don't know about my country. Don't talk about my country. That's it.

2. What do you think about what President Trump's strategy is? Do you approve of what he's doing?

Her: Yeah, definitely. Thank you, Trump. Really, thank you. He was the only one that he was brave, that he did that. We really appreciate that.

2: What do you say to these leftists who say that we shouldn't be involved in any other conflicts?

Her: I try to talk to them very calmly and explain it, what's happened to me and what's happened to all the Iranians in Iran. But they don't want to accept it because they have this ideology that they just should fight against Trump and Israel. But they don't open their eyes and see what's happening in Middle East.

It's not just about Iran. All the Muslims and all the Arab countries, they're suffering from Islamic Republic. You know, Islamic Republic helped the Bashar Assad to kill more than 500,000 Syrians. Islamic Republic did that. In Yemen, they helped the Houthis to kill more than 350,000 people. In Hezbollah, all that Hezbollah is proxies of Islamic Republic. They ruined the Middle East.

Why Muslim people, they don't fight against this regime? They should be the first people to fight against them I can't even believe. These guys, they never lived in Middle East. They never had this experience to live in country like that.

They rape us. They rape the girls in the prison. And I can't even believe how they let them to do this in fucking America. I don't know. Sorry.

2: Thank you.

1: She's very passionate.

2: Thank you.

A new report from a federal security task force says foreign interference activities during the last general election were "small scale" and often difficult to attribute to an actor from abroad. The Security and Intelligence Threats to Elections (SITE) Task Force includes representatives of Global Affairs Canada, the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS), the RCMP and the Communications Security Establishment, Canada's cyberspy agency. Under a federal protocol, a panel of senior bureaucrats had the power to warn the public during the election campaign if it decided one or more incidents threatened Canada's ability to hold a free and fair vote.

As Moldova's president election is coming, Russia operates a fake news network to spread misinformation and disinformation targeting the pro-EU president Maia Sandu.

Trump is claiming on social media that we captured the president of Venezuela.

Read that again.

This is either a massive act of international aggression or reckless propaganda.

Possibly both.

Who knows with this administration.

Original post:

Apparently we’re bombing Venezuela cause that makes sense.

Same recycled justifications.

Same regional entitlement.

Civilians hurt who didn’t get a say.

Apparently this is just how foreign policy works now.
