UK oil exec confesses to corruption conspiracy...
More interesting one of his employees paying bribes in Libya was also the contractor who Clinton's State Department used to hire the guards in 2012 for the US consulate in Bengazi! #ButNothingsHappening theguardian.com/uk-news/2019/j…
This guilty plea is for paying bribes for oil infrastructure business in Iraq between 2005 & 2013. The investigation started in March 2016 into suspected bribery and money laundering involving a Monaco-based oil and gas firm Unaoil.
Three other co-conspirators have trials scheduled in January 2020, to there is more to come from this case. sfo.gov.uk/2019/07/19/for…
One of the managers was in charge of operations in Iraq, Kazakhstan & Angola. Three countries that are all featuring in global corruption prosecutions related to the extraction industries.
I am wondering if someone in the Ahsani family is cooperating, articles back to 2016 claim that the FBI had a confidential source that was an employee of the company reporting on corruption & bribery case in Libya.
Last month it was announced that the UK's serious fraud office was dropping it's investigation into the Ahsani family named in the indictment. Maybe it was protecting an informant instead of the Swamp?
Or are the guys indicted the scapegoats?
One of the companies involved is hiring private investigators to go after the journalists publishing the stories about the corruption. #ButNothingsHappening!
Even Huffpost had to cover this Benghazi scandal in 2016! But they miss that the corruption is all so tightly tied together that the cover ups for politicians are protecting these crooks too! huffpost.com/entry/benghazi…
If you think this is nothing, this is a global oil company exec pleading guilty for bribery.
This company's Khadaffi regime bribes were paid through the same man who hired the guards who walked away & let Al Qaeda attack the consulate in Bengazi.
Now we know that Sidney Blumenthal was pushing Hillary to invade Libya while Sid, Cody Shearer, & Tyler Drumheller paid bribes to Libyan rebels who were CIA assets to get contracts from the new regime.
In March of 2016, someone leaked 100,000 of Unaoil's internal emails to Huffpost & other journalists. Letting even liberal journalists trip over the truth...
March 2016, the same month the UK SFO investigation started & lots happened in DC with Spygate, MYE & other cases.
All the players knew you had to bribe people to get things done in Libya. A Canadian drilling company executive using Unaoil as their middleman was caught asking how bribes should be structured in their Libyan deals.
I wonder if that is similar to the case of SNC Lavelin who #JustinTrudeau fired his Attorney General because she would not drop charges against them for bribing Khadaffi's sons & others.
The State Department had one one bidder for it's contract to guard the consulate in Libya, one owned by a former Green Beret that was operating guards in Libya. But State didn't want a US provider so opened the bidding again & picked charlatans over veterans!
As I've said, part of the reason for the cover ups on Bengazi & other things was to hide the rampant corruption & money laundering that was benefiting politicians & the Swamp connected. It also explains connections to the second Clinton email investigation.threadreaderapp.com/thread/9993184…

yWhat may be the biggest part of the agreement, DOJ is referring Raytheon to DOD & other agencies to begin a review to determine if Raytheon or individuals involved should be suspended from government contracts & debarred from future contracts!
So in addition to the corruption & bribery, the risks of Raytheon committing crimes to conceal corruption related to arms sales to foreign governments is a major factor in this case.
Opens contractors up to other off the books deals.
Raytheon as a corporation has now flipped on their executives who made these decisions. Which means Raytheon can only survive as a business & defense contractor if it provides all the receipts for criminal prosecutions.
Raytheon will pay $950 million to settle the allegations against the company for several different criminal schemse the company participated in.
Raytheon accepted a deferred prosecution agreement that becomes a confession at trial if they don't cooperate! justice.gov/usao-edny/pr/r…
The 1st set of charges are in EDNY. Bribing Qatari officials for defense contracts.
Then conspiracy by not report the bribes on the paperwork requesting permission to export the arms to Qatar. This sets a precedent for EVERY arms export deal!
Mayor Adams indicted by the DOJ following an FBI investigation.
And people still want to side with the Swamp against th FBI & DOJ.
Why could they still believe #ButNothingsHappening after 14 years of indictments & convictions?
Remember the researchers at Georgia Tech who were getting paid by the DOD & USAF to spy on Trump & feed that info into Hillary's oppo research campaign?
DOJ joined a lawsuit accusing GT on behalf of those researchers of lying to DOD about compliance with cybersecurity procedures.
So the cybersecurity people accessing NSA data to spy upon Donald Trump for the Pentagon were willfully avoiding compliance with security proposals. Then pressuring GT to lie to the DOD & submit false audits claiming that their computers were secure.
#ButNothingsHappening
I know some people still believe Hillary's Russia Hoax that told them FBI was investigating & spying on Trump.
How long are you going to continue to believe Hillary's smokescreen & help hide that it was her campaign & the Pentagon that spied on Trump?
For those who don't understand the law in this case, Congress has authorized the Attorney General to specially appoint lawyers & conduct legal proceedings at the same level as US Attorneys without confirmation. It's specifically authorized.
While Canon ignores Section 515, it specifically authorizes AGs to appoint special attorneys to prosecute criminal cases & run grand juries same as a US Attorney can.
She claims the law does not authorize the AG to appoint a special counsel with the authority of a US Attorney.
Julian Assange flying to the North Marianas to plead guilty to espionage.
Gets a 62 month prison sentence, but will be released with time served for his 5 years in British prison.
The choice of the Northern Marianas Islands is unusual.
That US territory is a hub for Chinese money laundering to the US & to US politicians. Wonder if he will testify to a US grand jury while he is there? Or has he already done so by Zoom?
The Chinese have been buying off Swampy politicians on Pacific islands that are US territories to infiltrate them to get into the US financial system.
The Northern Marianas, the Solomons, & many others...
