1/ Jawdropping⤵️, but so complicated that I don't really understand what was happening.

@loonyberg @FactFreeh 3/ "But the documents show that his company has accepted and obscured international business from GVC Holdings PLC, one of the most prominent gambling outfits in the online industry, often in places where online gambling is prohibited or highly regulated." (more)
@loonyberg @FactFreeh 4/ "The records obtained by the AP show that top GVC executives collaborated w/Allied Wallet & a trusted middleman to hide gambling operations involving currencies from countries where online betting is illegal or highly regulated, including Turkey🇹🇷, Brazil🇧🇷 & Mexico🇲🇽."

@loonyberg @FactFreeh 5/ Would love to enlist help of process flow diagrammers like @j2dumfounded, @PortlusGlam or lady I keep meaning to follow but haven't yet; her handle starts was a 'j' and she makes those spectacular hand-drawn flow charts -- please help w/her Twitter handle...🙏... (more...)
@loonyberg @FactFreeh @j2dumfounded @PortlusGlam 6/ "Last August [2017], the Trump administration 👉ended a Justice Department effort called Operation Choke Point👈 that investigated banks and other financial institutions working in industries such as payday lending that carry high risks of fraud🤨." (more...)
@loonyberg @FactFreeh @j2dumfounded @PortlusGlam 7/ Answer to @loonyberg's question⤵️ is: "Elliott Broidy"🤨

We had a lot of important commentary and analysis this week.

Below👇is the complete roundup.

But we thought to highlight a few very special pieces starting with ...

2.
"If you understand the Justice Department, the damage has already been done. The reputation and credibility of the Justice Department has been dealt a significant blow."

- Lisa Monaco, former Assistant to the President and worked for Reno and Mueller

3. Unredacted Ukraine emails newly obtained by Just Security:

"They also expose the extent to which OMB misled, and even lied to, the Government Accountability Office (GAO), a congressional investigative body."

“A fundamental revision of existing legal foundations for military action against Iran that can be undertaken by this and future presidents.”

My take on NEW—and legally flawed—White House report on actions against #Iran and #Soleimani strike.

justsecurity.org/68594/white-ho…
2. New White House report conspicuously drops any reference to “imminence” of Soleimani threat.

What's at stake: This means the White House is claiming authority to strike #Iran again with no threat of imminent attack (and with no prior congressional authority).
3. White House report suggests US can hold Iran directly responsible for “support” to militias.

What’s at stake: That's a heck of a low threshold and could boomerang.

Does Trump want US to be held directly responsible for support to Syrian Kurds, for Saudi bombing in #YemenWar?

बातें करनी थी तुमसे बहुत सारी,इतनी कि बाकी की ज़िंदगी उनके सहारे काट सकूं।जब मिली थी तुमसे तो नहीं जानती थी कि ये आख़िरी बार है वरना सहेज लेती सब..जो तुमने कहा,किया;पर अफ़सोस कि तुम्हारी आवाज़ का एक क़तरा भी नहीं चुरा पायी।तुम्हारे होठों की हरकतें रह गयीं उसी पल में।>>
बात शुरु करने में तुम्हारी झिझक,तुम्हारी पेशानी पर पड़ते बल और बालों में तुम्हारा वो हाथ फेरना सहेज नहीं पायी।ख़ुद को हिम्मत देते हुए उस नीली शर्ट की बाहों को जो मोड़ा था तुमने,वो सिलवटें तो रख लेनी चाहिए थी।वो जब फिर कभी न मिलने की बात कहते हुए तुम्हारा गला रुंध आया था और >>
सांसे तेज़ हुई थीं।वो लम्हें रखने थे मुझे इस तसल्ली के लिए कि शायद तुम्हें भी दर्द हुआ हो।मेरा हाथ छोड़ वापस मुड़ते ही वो जो एक आंसू तुम्हारी बायीं आँख से गिरा था,जिसे तुमने तिनके का कसूर बताया था,वो मेरा पूरा समुंदर हो सकता था पर फिसलकर रह गया तुम्हारे होठों पर ही।>>

सुनो!

एक पल को तीव्र उत्कंठा होती है तुम्हें देख लेने की,पा लेने की, छू लेने की,महसूस कर लेने की।कभी कभी सबकुछ कह देना चाहती हूँ तुमसे।बताना चाहती हूँ कि तुम्हारी तस्वीर से बातें करते सो जाने की आदत सी लग चुकी है पिछले कुछ दिनों से।
>>
तुम्हारी कहानियों को लोरी की तरह सुनाती हूँ ख़ुद को।तुम्हारी तस्वीरों में तुम्हारी आंखों की मुस्कुराहट और कहानियों में ख़ुद को ढूंढती रहती हूँ,पर अफ़सोस कि दोनों नहीं मिले कभी,या शायद थे ही नहीं कभी।कई बार मन में आता है कि तुम्हें सामने बिठाकर तुमसे तुम्हारा पूरा जीवन बांट लूँ।>>
पूछूँ तुमसे कि तुम्हारे बचपन की सबसे पुरानी याद क्या है?क्या तुम भी मेरी तरह रोए थे जब पहली बार स्कूल गये?कैसे थे तुम्हारे सब बचपन के साथी और कैसी दिखती थी तुम्हारी वो सहेली?क्या शरारतें करते थे तुमलोग साथ में?क्या सपने थे उस वक़्त के और कैसे सपनों के रास्ते बदल गए?

A thread explaining why Islam is correct in banning atheism and why it is the logical thing to do.

If you are Muslim, you will understand the wisdom of Allah in banning disgusting things like atheism

Because atheism is harmful to health, life, society, & civilization.
In short, we will explain here how all the arguments atheists make against Islam are illogical and when scrutinized make no sense since they are all moral claims, and atheism has no morality since they have no logical foundation in order to make those claims
Angry atheists save your comments for the end, if you have no logical response, don't bother crying in the replies

No atheist will be able to refute this logically but will instead whine about how it hurt their illogical feelings

#Thread --> De olho no enorme potencial de se abrir dados do governo, o jornalista Léo Arcoverde criou, em 2015, o portal Fiquem Sabendo. Desde então, publicou cerca de 500 reportagens com informações inéditas obtidas usando as ferramentas disponibilizadas pela Lei de Acesso.
Entrando em seu quinto ano, o Fiquem Sabendo cresceu e agora se tornou uma associação sem fins lucrativos. De um site jornalístico, o objetivo agora é se transformar em uma agência de dados públicos.
Agora, somos quatro jornalistas (@mavilaunberg , @toledoluizf , Matheus Moreira e Léo) na luta para empoderar outros colegas, cidadãos e pesquisadores na obtenção de informações públicas.

👉Acesso à informação é poder!👈
