Residential address of White House Chief of Staff, Mark Meadows.

At least that’s what he said on his voter registration form.

It’s nice that we can afford to put our highest ranking government officials up in such swanky domiciles.

- Robert Regan, a Republican candidate for the Michigan House of Representatives -

"Having three daughters, I tell my daughters, 'if rape is inevitable, you should just lay back and enjoy it,'" he said.

Two years ago, one of Regan's daughters publicly discouraged people from supporting her father during a different bid to win political office.

"If you're in Michigan and 18+ please for the love of god do not vote for my dad," she wrote on Twitter at the time. "Tell everyone."

This was found in Oswald's wallet.  The question is which wallet?  And, whose wallet? 

I would speculate that the ticket would identify him to certain people or groups that knew he was in Japan.  I would further speculate this makes little sense since the Oswald captured at the Texas Theater was the Harvey part of Harvey and Lee.  Harvey was not at Atsugi, Japan at all.  Lee was.

In the Missing Chapter, Jack R. Swike the Ga-Jo-Enkanko Hotel, said the hotel was in Tokyo.  Harvey Oswald was in Japan after a brief trip to Taiwan.  He spent some time at another military base, Iwakuni, hundreds of miles from Atsugi and Tokyo. entation and testing was done.  

John,

In an earlier post, Jim DiEugenio said, "...it would appear that Oswald was an intel project before he got to Russia."

Wasn't one of the Oswald's supposed to have had an affair with an Oriental woman while he was in Japan?

I've wondered if the hotel in Tokyo was connected, and if Oswald was being briefed on his upcoming "defection" to Russia at that hotel, and on whose behalf was that woman acting? Was she a Soviet agent? Did the Russians grease the skids for Oswald's defection?

Did Oswald keep the ticket for sentimental reasons, pining over a "lost love that could never be", or did it have some kind of intelligence function?

I don't know, I'm just seeing what sticks to the wall.

Jim,

You know, I've always wondered why Oswald was still carrying a ticket to the Ga-Jo-Enkanko Hotel in Japan in his wallet, five or six years later.

I read this morning that that convoy that has been stalled on the way to Kiev...

They've been there for a week now, and they don't have any barracks. They've been living out of their trucks. They're running out of fuel to heat their trucks. It's cold and snowing. They're running out of food. It wouldn't surprise me at all if they started throwing down their guns and heading for home. That's what happened at the end of WWI and led to the Russian Revolution.

- Donald Trump -

“Former Attorney General Bill Barr wouldn’t know voter fraud if it was staring him in the face—and it was," Trump claimed, even though his conspiracy theory was long ago debunked.

"The fact is, he was weak, ineffective, and totally scared of being impeached, which the Democrats were constantly threatening to do. They 'broke' him," Trump argued. "He should have acted much faster on the Mueller Report, instead of allowing the fake Russia, Russia, Russia, Hoax to linger for so long, but it was the Election Fraud and Irregularities that he refused to act on because he wanted to save his own hide—and he did. He never got impeached, contempt charges never went forward, and the Democrats were very happy with him—but I wasn’t.""

Well, Duh...

“The Federation Internationale Feline announced on its website that because of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, FIFe has banned Russian cats from international competition until at least June.

“The Board of FIFe feels it cannot just witness these atrocities and do nothing,” the organization said.”

Matt,

This establishes intent. Trump lost, and knew he had lost. He deliberately attempted to overthrow the government anyway.

This is sedition.

"There's already, you know, reporting out there that Trump was telling his aides," Conway said, "and I know for a fact this to be true, that he was saying, 'How could I have lost to this guy? How could I have lost?' which means he knew he lost, which means he knew he was engaging in a fraud and knew he was engaging in a deceit, and the fact he was trying to obstruct the lawful function of the United States government puts this squarely, squarely under the scope of 18 U.S.C. section 371."

"At this point I don't see how the Justice Department can pass on this," he added.

Former President Trump is blowing the launch of his new social media company, via a series of unforced errors.

https://www.axios.com/newsletters/axios-pro-rata-5596a60d-ff76-4e2b-910a-d872ac69c0eb.html

- Quoted from the article -

“The big pictue: Truth Social spent much of February in private beta with invited users, saying its public unveil would be Feb. 21 (President's Day, natch).

But the vast majority of people downloading the app, me included, were given a waitlist number. Nine days later, most of us remain on that waitlist, with our number unchanged and without a word of communication from the company. A waitlist "refresh" icon doesn't work.

Trump's role: The former president is Truth Social's founder and chairman, so he obviously bears some responsibility for putting together the team that's so far fallen on its face. But, most importantly, he's not using the app.

• Trump hasn't posted a single time since the launch, despite an international crisis that has captivated the country. Instead, he's given his comments to radio and TV hosts — including one this morning with Dominion conspiracy theorist Maria Bartiromo — plus via his CPAC speech.

Why it matters: The SPAC that agreed to take Truth Social public is valued at over $3.5 billion. At some point, investors will begin paying attention.

The bottom line: The SPAC's investment thesis seems to be that a large percentage of Trump's 88 million Twitter followers will migrate over to Truth Social. But nearly two weeks after launch, his dormant account has fewer than 80,000 followers. And Trump himself is largely to blame.”

'World is racing toward the cliff': Belarus to host Russian nuclear weapons

By Julia Conley, Common Dreams February 28, 2022

https://www.rawstory.com/world-is-racing-toward-the-cliff-belarus-to-host-russian-nuclear-weapons/

“Anti-nuclear groups on Monday decried a referendum in Belarus allowing for the country to host nuclear weapons, as the European Union warned the development puts the entire planet on a "very dangerous path." “

“But regardless of the criticism, the reported results of the referendum—which showed more than 65% of voters supporting changes to the constitution including a renunciation of the country's neutral and non-nuclear status as well as new broad powers and legal immunity for Lukashenko—are expected to allow Russia to launch nuclear missiles from the Eastern European country.”

This is really, really bad. Lukashenko is a nut job.

First Capitol riot trial opens in D.C.

“This is the first test of the Justice Department’s effort to transform its Jan. 6 manhunt into convincing arguments.”

“Nearly 14 months after a mob stormed the Capitol and threatened the certification of Joe Biden’s win in the presidential race, jury selection opened Monday for the first trial of one of the more than 750 people charged in connection with the attack.

A little after 9:30 a.m., potential jurors began filing into the cavernous ceremonial courtroom at U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, where Guy Reffitt, 49, a Texas oil rig worker, is set to face five felony counts, including civil disorder, seeking to obstruct the Electoral College count, carrying a firearm into a restricted area and obstruction of justice.”

Russia State-Owned News Site Tass Hacked With ‘Putin Makes Us Lie’ Message

‘STOP THIS MADNESS’

by Jamie Ross Feb. 28, 2022

https://www.thedailybeast.com/tass-site-hacked-with-putin-makes-us-lie-message?ref=home?ref=home

“People logging on to Russian state-owned news agency Tass to get the Kremlin’s version of events in Ukraine got a shock early Monday. Instead of the latest lines from the Kremlin, the site showed an anti-war message that condemned President Vladimir Putin for forcing Russian journalists to lie. “Dear citizens. We urge you to stop this madness, do not send your sons and husbands to certain death. Putin makes us lie and puts us in danger,” the hacked site read. “In a few years we will live like in North Korea. What is it for us? To put Putin in the textbooks? This is not our war, let’s stop it!” It’s not clear who changed the site, but an Anonymous logo followed the message and it ended with the sign-off: “This message will be deleted, and some of us will be fired or even jailed. But we can’t take it anymore... Indifferent journalists of Russia.” After the hack was noticed on social media, the Tass website became unavailable."

New York CNN Business —

“BP (BP) is cutting ties with Rosneft in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

The British company said in a statement Sunday that it would exit its 19.75% stake in the Russian state oil giant, describing Moscow’s decision to attack its neighbor as “an act of aggression which is having tragic consequences across the region.”

BP CEO Bernard Looney and former CEO Bob Dudley will also stand down with immediate effect from Rosneft’s board, where they had served alongside Rosneft CEO Igor Sechin, a close ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

BP, which had called itself “one of the biggest foreign investors in Russia,” said the changes would lead to the company taking a “material” charge in its first quarter earnings. Its operating profit in 2025 would be about $2 billion lower than forecast as a result of the accounting changes, it added.

How Exxon, BP and Shell help Russia pump oil and gas

BP chair Helge Lund said that the company had operated in Russia for over 30 years and worked with “brilliant” colleagues there.

“However, this military action represents a fundamental change,” Lund said in a statement. “It has led the BP board to conclude, after a thorough process, that our involvement with Rosneft, a state-owned enterprise, simply cannot continue.””

Putin orders nuclear deterrent forces on alert

https://www.axios.com/putin-nuclear-forces-9d1a2823-9512-4ab3-89f2-118ee37e0970.html

“Russian President Vladimir Putin said in a televised statement on Sunday that he was ordering Russia's nuclear deterrent forces on alert, as he continues his unprovoked invasion of Ukraine.

Driving the news: Speaking alongside his defense minister and military chief of staff, Putin said recent sanctions and "aggressive statements" from NATO countries had led him to put the nuclear deterrent forces in a “special regime of combat duty."

This is the second time Putin has alluded to Russia's nuclear arsenal while effectively warning the West to back off.

• In a statement at the onset of the invasion, Putin said anyone who tried to "hinder us" would face "such consequences that you have never encountered in your history."”

"Russia has threatened its close Arctic neighbours Sweden and Finland with 'military consequences' if they join NATO. 
It came as Russia's invasion of Ukraine intensified today after a night of fighting in the capital of Kyiv especially. 
Sweden and Finland are the two closest countries to Russia in the Arctic Circle. 
'Finland and Sweden should not base their security on damaging the security of other countries and their accession to NATO can have detrimental consequences and face some military and political consequences,' foreign affairs spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said during a news briefing. "

Now that's going too far!

Trump took documents too highly classified to describe back home with him to Mar-A-Lago: report

byTravis Gettys February 25, 2022

https://www.rawstory.com/trump-2656793264/

“The House Oversight Committee wants additional information about the classified records Donald Trump took home with him from the White House.

Rep. Carolyn B. Maloney (D-NY), the committee's chairwoman, asked the National Archives and Records Administration for a detailed description of the contents of 15 boxes recovered from Trump's Mar-A-Lago resort -- some of which are so top-secret they couldn't even be described without compromising their security, reported the Washington Post.

“'There are records that only a very few have clearances' to review, one of the people [familiar with the matter' told The Post. "The documents are so sensitive that they may not be able to describe them in an unclassified way, and therefore, such documents might be described broadly in a classified addendum to the inventory, according to the two people."

The Archives confirmed to the newspaper that classified materials were in those boxes and that torn-up records had been transferred to their custody but had not been reconstructed by the Trump White House.”
