"What happened in Mississippi reveals the hypocrisy of how the law is being applied today."

@BrianOwsley1, a former US Magistrate Judge in Corpus Christi, Texas, on how employers are let off the hook while their undocumented workers are arrested.
justsecurity.org/66155/if-natio…
His research shows that, since 2014, across the country, there have been no more than 200 prosecutions for alleged violations of 8 U.S.C. § 1324a, the law that makes hiring undocumented immigrants illegal.
As a comparison:

"When I served on the bench, I assisted in the McAllen Division and handled more than 200 prosecutions for illegal reentry in less than two weeks," Owsley writes.

Amid a new House probe into whether Trump is w/holding aid to #Ukraine for its defense v. #Russia in exchange for fake “dirt” on Biden, check out @ViolaGienger’s deep dive.

“President Trump and his personal attorney appear to have increased pressure on the Ukrainian government and its justice system in service of President Trump’s reelection campaign." -- @RepEliotEngel @RepAdamSchiff @RepCummings in letters to WH & State.
.@violagienger notes "It was the widely known & publicly espoused position of the USG, across a half dozen agencies, that the prosecutor’s ouster was among crucial anti-corruption measures the Ukrainian government needed to take to move forward economically and politically."

Chronological History: The New World Order
by D.L. Cuddy, Ph.D.

In the mainline media, those who adhere to the position that there is some kind of "conspiracy" pushing us towards a world government are virulently ridiculed.
The standard attack maintains that the so-called "New World Order" is the product of turn-of-the-century, right-wing, bigoted, anti-Semitic racists acting in the tradition of the long-debunked Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion,

PROJECTING THE ISLAMIC NARRATIVES.

Unarguably, Islam is one of the fastest growing religions of the world, with over 1.8 billion adherents, according to Wikipedia statistics. It is a religion which preaches peace, sanity, humanness and goodness to all, no matter the differences.
This religion, notwithstanding its genuine nature and its message of peace, is seen as a threat. Since ages, the undiluted truth that Islam carries has always been a torn pricking the preachers of falsehood and taunting them each time they see an element of Islam in anyone or
anything. This brought about the enemies of Islam dragging Islam into the middle of controversies, but their plots has never for once prevailed, because Islam is not a controversial religion. The light of Islam can never be extinguished.

Conspiracy theorist Jerome Corsi in plea negotiations with Mueller, which could shed light on whether Trump or his advisers were linked to WikiLeaks’ release of hacked Democratic emails in 2016 washingtonpost.com/politics/stone…
"Word is friend in embassy plans 2 more dumps. One shortly after I'm back. 2nd in Oct. Impact planned to be very damaging."

Corsi informed Stone about the planned WikiLeaks Dem email releases 2 months in advance.

And Mueller has the exchange. nbcnews.com/politics/justi…
"Stone responded, "Get to (Assange) [a]t Ecuadorian Embassy in London and get the pending (WikiLeaks) emails."

Corsi passed the request along to conservative author Ted Malloch in London"

Very welcome news on #YemenWar

"Trump admin to end refueling for Saudi coalition aircraft in Yemen"
(@John_Hudson @missy_ryan report)

But, as I discussed with former senior US officials, refueling on its own isn't strongest way to go about this: 1/
justsecurity.org/61172/effectiv…
Most effective way to end US support for #YemenWar and Saudi Coalition killings of civilians: suspend Direct Commercial Sales (DCS) licenses for U.S. maintenance of fighter aircraft.

Bruce Riedel, senior adviser on South Asia and the Middle East to the last four presidents: 2/
Even WaPo hints at why suspension of refueling Saudi aircraft is not enough.

"US tanker activity represents only about a fifth of overall refueling activity" for coalition
"the move was prompted at least in part by the Saudi military's increased aerial refueling capability"
