Riot police breaking up a Chamisa press conference
“Everyone out, even journalists”. Welcome to Mnangagwa’s bright freedom-loving new Zimbabwe.
They’re doing it right in front of Commonwealth observers.
On Wednesday I had a soldier raise his AK at me and threaten to shoot, on Friday a riot policeman move to shove me with his shield. In sum I’m sensing you’d be absolutely fucking crazy to come and invest here. It’s just a hunch.
Chamisa presser now about to convene. Police have gone along with their water-cannon truck, leaving big questions about who gave the order to send them.

I won the FT's 2018 charity stock-picking contest. I won it dirty. ft.com/content/5132f1…

#BREAKING

Private data of almost 1000 German #Bundestag, #Regional Parliament & #EU delegates was leaked.

The scale of the attack is unprecedented
Mobile phone numbers, addresses, private family conversations, vacation pictures, bills, communications between politicians, work emails etc. were leaked
In most cases, Outlook was hacked, in some cases also Facebook, Twitter etc.
#BTleaks
The leaked data, which was illegally collected until October 2018 and released December 2018, but just found now, is still publicly available.
I searched through it 5 hours last night, read maybe 3%of it and already found cases of corruption and bad political scandals.
