Ahhh, I'll bet the story yesterday about the UK wanting to break up the Big 4 accounting/auditing firms (Deloitte, KPMG, PWC, and EY) must relate back the #1MDB scandal (and probably others as well).

#ButNothingsHappening
Note this paragraph in the article that's linked in Dawson's tweet above:
From January:

"Malaysia probing audit firms' conduct in #1MDB scandal"

In this article, KPMG and Deloitte are specifically mentioned 👇

News yesterday in the UK:

"UK accountancy giants 'should be broken up'"

Looks like there are a bunch of investigations going on into those companies, too.

State Department contracting officer, Zaldy N. Sabino, was indicted for bribery and fraud in a procurement scheme.

Sabino and the owner of a Turkish construction firm engaged in the scheme and contracts were given to the Turkish owner's business partners.

#ButNothingsHappening
Sabino received cash payments from the construction company's owner while also supervising multi-million dollar contracts awarded to that owner's business partners.

Sabino also LIED during his background RE-investigation.
Sabino was a contract specialist & contracting office at the Facilities Design Construction Division in the Office of Acquisitions Management (AQM) within the State Dept and was allowed to execute some contracts on behalf of the State Dept.

Owner of Zealcon, an Oklahoma software and staffing company, was indicted for tax fraud, including not paying out taxes withheld from employee paychecks.
I wonder if he was hiring a bunch of foreigners through work visas.

The company appears to have had contracts with DoD, Verizon, Monsanto, IBM, AT&T and several other large companies. Their site also says they have a staffing service.

More swamp drainage. 👇👇👇

A Chairman of the North Carolina Republican party, a donor, an investment company founder, and a consultant were indicted for bribery and corruption.

#ButNothingsHappening
Here's who was charged:

Greg Lindberg - Founder/Chairman of Eli Global LLC & Global Bankers Insurance Group (GBIG)

John Gray - Consultant for Lindberg

Robert Cannon Hayes - Chairman of North Carolina Republican party

John Palermo - Chatham County Chairman & Eli Global Exex
Looks like a typical #PayToPlay scheme.

Lindberg & co-conspirators bribed the public officials in exchange for actions that would favor their businesses.

1/ The #Saudi kidnapping of #Khashoggi reminds me of the kidnapping of #Hariri. It is meant to embarrass the other party, this time the gov of #Turkey, and provoke a diplomatic crisis. This is drug Cartel methods. It has no other goal than to assert power over the other.
2/ However, resorting to these methods to assert power in the political and international affairs sphere is always a sign of weakness and a sign of a power in crisis. #SaudiArabia

Dear @BorisJohnson,
There is no better Brexit when it comes to the Good Friday Agreement and Northern Ireland. As you still seem bamboozled by all this Paddywackery here’s a few pointers for your next stab in the dark -
1. Northern Ireland is made up of a majority of Unionists (as in the Conservative and Unionist Party) and, believe it or not, a rather large minority of Nationalists (as in Irish Nationalists)
2. These Irish Nationalists don’t see themselves as British but rather inconveniently as Irish (who knew?)

Preparations appear to be underway for a pro-#Assad offensive on #Idlib.

12hrs of on/off air & artillery strikes vs. southeastern & western #Idlib & northern #Hama - see marks on map (original by @ETANA_Syria + my additions).

+ multiple large pro-regime convoys moving north.
@ETANA_Syria #pt: If/when any major military campaign gets underway, expect the #Assad regime (+ #Russia & #Iran-backed militias) to focus on these 2 fronts:

1) West #Idlib (Jisr al-Shughour)
2) N. #Hama/#SE #Idlib (Latamineh, Khan Sheikhoun, Kafrazita)

-> a gradual push ‘inland’ & north.
@ETANA_Syria Very good by @theIRC’s @DMiliband:

- The West must “re-assert” itself & protect civilians in NW #Syria & as a backstop, safe-routes should be opened for civilians to flee into #Turkey.

- UNSC must demand full access to S #Syria; for aid, monitoring etc.

Shane is fangirling about meeting Rebekah and Kol, the Original vampires, and bragging about not being able to be compelled. Then Bex tells Kol to beat the location of the cure out of him. Lol. Imagine meeting your idols and they beat the shit out of you.
Back to this. "Truth or dare, Elena?"
"Dare." Damn that's brave.
"I dare you to tell Stefan the truth about Damon."
Sweetie, that's truth not dare, but I am here for this.
"Seriously?!" Caroline being there for Stefan again.
Bex is being really childish though
"Being with Damon makes me happy." HSHDFLK YES IT DOES.
"Makes you happy? Clowns make you happy Elena. Dig a little deeper."
Actually, clowns do quite the opposite of making me happy, but to each their own Rebekah. 🙈

1. There's a political realignment going on, and it's not right-left. It's tech platforms versus everyone else. Let's start with Jim Cramer talking about all the CEOs freaking out about Amazon.
2. And then marketing guru Scott Galloway at the Digital Media Summit getting *a standing ovation* for calling for the break-up of big tech.
3. Now we'll go to @Yelp's forum on the 20th anniversary of the Microsoft case. Antitrust attorney Jonathan Kanter discusses all the CEOs who can't understand why antitrust law is so weak against the platforms. c-span.org/video/?445473-…
