🤮”Former FBI director William Sessions once condemned Russia's mafia. ‘We can beat organized crime,’ he told a Moscow conference in 1997.

“Today,Sessions is a lawyer for Semyon Mogilevich..one of Russia's most powerful organized-crime figures.” @wsj 2007

“Sessions is trying to negotiate a deal with the U.S. Department of Justice for his client, who is charged with racketeering and is a key figure in a separate Justice Department probe of energy deals between Russia and Ukraine.”-@wsj 2007

“A number of notable Washington insiders are earning big fees these days by representing controversial clients from the former Soviet Union.”-@wsj 2007 archives

“From prominent businessmen—some facing criminal allegations—to top politicians, well-known ex-Soviets are lining up to hire help with criminal cases, lobbying and consulting.”-@WSJ 2007 archives

“These figures, many of whom made fortunes in the wide-open 1990s amid the Soviet Union's disintegration,hire Washington insiders to help rehabilitate their reputations in the West or to persuade investors and regulators they are committed to good corporate governance.”-@WSJ 2007

Thread of terrorist leaders if they were drugs

Osama bin Laden - weed

old school, a true classic, kinda boring, your parents probably talk about it a lot

Ayman Al-Zawahiri - Rohypnol

old, creepy, puts you to sleep in ten minutes flat, once he comes out nobody is having a good time and the police needs to get involved

Abubakar Shekau - Crack

very high energy, much bigger than anyone ever thought it'd be, for when the original is too elitist for you, speaking in tongues is just part of the deal

Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi - Alcohol

everyone knows about it, easy to pretend it's not a problem until it's A REAL BIG PROBLEM, not great for the waist line, when it ends it's messy and children probably get hurt

🧵
Asst Chief Filice (@rfSalinasPD),

I'd like to report crimes in your jurisdiction:

1. Louie Alejo (@SupervisorAlejo) took bribes from Mike Hackett of Casa Sorrento fame. (cocaine dealer and @maryrduan's soft spot) - it's on recording.

2. Dave Drew was involved in a fraud

2/

scheme involving Frankie Lane, Anthony Lane (Cotroneo boys from Montreal), Jimmy Gilbert (deceased Monterey wharf biz owner) and McGilloway (accountant with an office in Unicool's W. Market office complex) and the Fox Theater in Oldtown Salinas.

The fraud was documented in

3/

a civil suit laid out by Monterey attorney Hugo Gerstl (smart man) in 2016 - two years before @JerryBrownGov pardoned Drew.

3. The Bankers Casino boys are involved with narco-trackers and money launderers. They also have ties to organized crime figures.

Please let me know

4/

how you wish to proceed?

Also, @Kelly_McMillin has a troubling connection to all of these issues.

I'm also concerned about reports a @SalinasPD officer has received financial assistance to buy a house on the border with Mexico 🇲🇽 with the help of Rolando Cabrera who is a

5/

member of the Cabrera crime family.

Would you please enlighten the public on this relationship between the Cabrera's and one of Salinas' "finest"?

Thank you for your immediate attention.

Exhibits to follow:

I really think that the Jan. 6th insurrection, really was an attempted coup.
But DJT's reichstag fire was thwarted by actual American Patriots like DC Police Officer Eugene Goodman.

In leading the insurgents away from the Senate chamber, Goodman saved the lives of many.

The killing of Democrat politicians and Vice President Pence, were all part of the larger plan.

DJT saw Pence's refusal to do his wishes in overturning the election results as a betrayal.

The killing of Democrats and possibly some Republicans was the key to the plan.

KEY 1:
As revealed in impeachment trial 2, DJT altered a permit to allow his cult to go from his pre coup rally to the Capitol building.

KEY 2:
DJT called for 10k National Guard to be deployed. But NOT used to put down any "riot"

KEY 3:
GOP politicians giving RECCE tours

KEY 4:
A truck loaded with weapons and explosives found near the Capitol building

KEY 5:
DJT and his #TrumpCrimeFamily and #TrumpCrimeSyndicate had a viewing party of the attack

KEY 6:
People who had instrumental roles in the attack haven't been arrested yet. Including senators

KEY 6:
Having someone in place to block ordering the National Guard to deploy to aid the DCPD

KEY 7:
useful idiots still trying to push the narrative that the election was stolen

#UnEssentialHypertension

Having been placed on a SECOND blood pressure lowering drug a month ago, and reporting to the cardio some lightheadedness when I get up, and rather than discussing a dose or drug change being told to "stand up more slowly" has me working hard on 1/n

lowering BP and getting completely off the drugs.

First things first, I checked my median BP off drugs at two different weights, and sure enough, the more I weigh, the higher the home BP. At 186lbs, median BP is 144/88, max was 165/98. 2/n

Peaks (especially in the doctors office were labeled hypertensive crisis). At 162lbs, median BP is 124/79, max was 138/86. The question remains how high BP goes in the office (or at Red Cross) when I weigh less. 3/n

Weight goal is around 153, and I'm at 168± now, so primary objective is to reach goal weight and see if I can wean off the meds.

Second, sodium. I may be salt sensitive. I've added more sodium to my diet after reading a bunch on that and learning of some twitter peeps' 4/n

experiences. Ate light yesterday, took some extra salt, and gained nearly two pounds and my rings got tight. Next step is to reduce sodium load and see what happens.

Third, NO. I've been using a UVB light, and before the seasons turned getting decent sunlight. 5/n
