In UN briefing Inner City Press is banned from by
@UN_Spokesperson @StephDujarric for 1229th day,
he's gotten its Qs by email, incl on #Haiti case, Carney conflict, whistleblower Reilly, #Burma Cmr Hnd #UNGA vax #Nigeria #Cameroon #Burma UN rapes. Thread below
Banned Inner City Press has asked in writing, "What conflict of interest rules apply to UN official Mark Carney, given his positions with Brookfield, and it seems PIMCO and Stripe?
Inner City Press has asked, "what are the comments and actions if any of SG Guterres on that Mozambique’s opposition Renamo has demanded that parliament hold an session to discuss the presence of foreign forces fighting armed groups in the Cabo Delgado province?
Inner City Press has asked, "Also, as with Angolo / Dos Santos, on which you have not answer, disclose any and all assistance to Guterres' term(s) as UNSG provided by Mozambique or its governmental leaders."
Banned Inner City Press asked, "On UN retaliating against whistleblowers, what is SG Guterres' response to statements by Emma Reilly on steps to fire her by end of August, under a UN claim that whether names of Uighur dissidents were given to China is irrelevant?
Banned Inner City Press this morning in writing asked @UN_Spokesperson "what are the comments & actions if any of SG Guterres on that rebels from Ethiopia's northern region of Tigray have captured the historic town of Lalibela." Nada - #TodaysUNisUseless
So @UN_Spokesperson @StephDujarric ends by lying that there are no more questions on his phone - Inner City Press has emailed him and @MelissaFleming this morning questions on Haiti, Emma Reilly, Mozambique, conflicts of interest - no answers. #UNaccountable.

OK - now detention review in Jan 6 case of US v. NICHOLAS LANGUERAND, before DDC Judge Bates. Inner City Press, still waiting for DOJ videos in US v. Harrelson (Mehta), will live tweet, thread below
Languerand's lawyer: My client has grandparents in South Carolina who would have him.
Judge Bates: Didn't he live in Vermont? What are his roots in South Carolina?
Defense: His grandparents moved and asked him to come down once he lost his job. He's a hard worker
Languerand's lawyer: He digs footings for foundations, his former boss would love him back. The risks to the public could be addressed by turning in the weapons that the government discovered - and did not seized, mind you. He could be on a curfew.

OK - in Jan 6 case of US v. John Lolos, now change of plea (to guilty) proceeding has begun before Judge Mehta. DOJ has *still* not provided videos in US v. Owen, McHugh, Harrelson & Sibick. Inner City Press will live tweet, thread below
Judge Mehta: Are there legal terms you do not understand?
Lolos: Some might come up.
Judge Mehta: Were you both in the US?
Lolos: Yes.
Judge Mehta: Do you wish to plea guilty to picketing or parading in the Capitol Building?
Lolos: If you're saying it, yes.
Judge Mehta: The plea agreement is nine pages?
Lolos: Yes. I have a request. On page 6, the 2d paragraph, it says I'm required to provide standard financial info. I can pay the fee. Why are my financials relevant to a misdemeanor case?

OK - now Jan 6 sentencing in US v. Bustle(s), by Judge Hogan - Inner City Press will live tweet, thread below
Judge Hogan: They were there at an anti-vaccine protest, in a different place. They came on later to the Capitol. They came to the riot, and it was a riot. People died. Yesterday another Capitol Police officer committed suicide.
Judge Hogan: This case is unique, though. They went in after the riot had begun... No prior criminal record, a mechanic, then into real estate business which he has lost as a result of this charge. Now they have notoriety. There's separately from family.

OK - in crypocurrency case of US v. Reginald Fowler, now a proceeding before @SDNYLIVE Judge Carter. Inner City Press has covered the case innercitypress.com/sdny19cryptofo… and will live tweet, thread below
Judge Andrew L. Carter: The parties have proposed a briefing schedule, and I'll sign off on it. They have requested a trial date in early February 2022. I can't guarantee the date, due to COVID. There's a committee in the Court, defendants in custody have priority
Judge Carter: In December I can request Feb 14, then we'll know yes or no in January. Or we could try one mid April. I did a trial recently [Bob King, being sentenced today: innercitypress.com/sdny16bobkingp…] In April, maybe I could do it in my own courtroom

Follow the Money: Briber/cooperator Jonah Rechnitz had been ordered to pay restitution to COBA of $500,000 a year. But then he whipped out $7 million in diamond. So today, @SDNYLIVE Judge is moving toward ordering him to pay $7 million, then $250,000 a quarter.
Judge Hellerstein: Mr. Rechnitz pays $17,000 a month in rent... How does he have a Bugatti? It's very dis-spiriting. He told me he would be a different person. But it seems he's the same. He conned me.
Judge Hellerstein: I've had to rethink these criteria, and come up with a solution that gives a chunk of money to COBA presently, has an adequate installment period beyond that, and perhaps gives discovery rights to COBA.
