Popping in to say that I've just received a 7-page legal threat for my "truly outrageous, offensive, and deeply damaging" article.

"We immediately demand you take down the article"

Answer: No.

forensicnews.net/2020/07/09/us-…
Akhavan's high-powered legal team led by Bergeson LLP, in support with Bill Burck who represented Bannon, Preibus, Pompeo, McGahn, and others, is trying to build an actual malice case.
Let me reiterate what the article says:

Ray Akhavan has been charged with bank fraud in a $100,000,000 scheme. A confidential Kroll report said he was a main player in their money laundering/wrong-doing.

Multiple agencies continue to investigate him.

But yeah, I'm the bad guy
I look forward to being sued in California using the state's strong anti-SLAPP laws.
What I ask of you:

Send this threat to every media person/high profile lawyer you know. I'd rather fade into oblivion than let these lawyers win. We need public disinfectant.
I'm now dealing with threats from Oleg Deripaska's lawyers, Ray Akhavan's lawyers, Walter Soriano's lawyers, multiple attacks on my website and a potential WhatsApp intrusion for one of my sources.
I don't want this to be woe is me. I want people to understand what independent news orgs have to go through.

Support them.

Exclusive: I got confidential banking and financial statements that form the basis of multiple investigations in the US and UK into a Russian businessman who made millions from a Russian drone contract.

forensicnews.net/2020/07/27/eni…
The contract to design and build Russia's powerful Altius-U UAV was assigned to a Russian firm that quietly funneled millions to a UK shell company under the control of Dmitry Tsvetkov. Tsvetkov's father in law is a member of the Russian Duma who... is on the defense committee
In interviewing Tsvetkov over the course of a month, it became clear that he was a serial liar. I had the documents that proved him wrong on several fronts.

By allowing Russian dossier sources to be outed, it's not an exaggeration to say that Bill Barr doesn't care if these people die.
This is Alexander Litvinenko. He defected from Russia's main intelligence agency and fled to London where he wrote about the misdeeds of the Russian mafia state. Putin's thugs found him an poisoned him. He died.
Alexander Perepilichny - Russian businessman and whistleblower who was providing Swiss authorities with evidence regarding massive Russian government fraud. Assassinated by likely poisoning.

Huge crypto hack underway. Hackers have managed to get into the Twitter accounts of Elon Musk and Bill Gates to post a fake crypto promotion.
Other accounts hit include the official Binance account, Coinbase, etc. This is a massive, sophisticated attack.
And again they have posted scam messages. It appears the hackers STILL have access to Gates, Musk and other high profile accounts.

You can see how much they have pulled in ($55k and counting; h/t @kevincollier) here: blockchain.com/btc/address/bc…
