A gunman is holding hostages at a Texas synagogue star-telegram.com/news/local/cri…
That above is huge if true. Siddiqui was a high-level Al-Qaeda operative.
ABC seems to be confirming that the suspect is Aafia Siddiqui's brother
The White House is aware of and monitoring the situation, per Fox
Authorities are *not* confirming that this is Siddiqui's brother
Definitely seeing a lot of news outlets run with it. Nothing has been confirmed about the suspect's name.
Hoping this was a flash bang and take down…
All hostages are safe and free, the Governor announces
Hostage-taker shot and killed
Bravo to the men and women at the FBI for conducting this difficult rescue.
The hostage rescue team (just about 150 operators total) is based in DC. These folks spent their morning in DC, hopped a flight to Texas and by night took down a terrorist and saved 4 civilians. Pretty incredible stuff.

Early reports are that the tsunami waves are "just" 3-4 feet. Let's hope it stays moderate.
Good lord

Fascinating. This tracks with something @MattBernardini7 and I have been looking into for a long time.

We have another shadowy oil company tied to Kozak. What did it do? It secretly paid Giuliani's buddy Artemenko, who was (is?) under FBI scrutiny: forensicnews.net/giuliani-probe…
@MattBernardini7 The new OCCRP reporting confirms what we suggested last year: Putin's buddies Medvedchuk and Kozak are secretly using oil companies and sham nominee directors in countries like Hungary and Armenia to hold vast $$$ and spread influence. forensicnews.net/giuliani-probe…
@MattBernardini7 Artemenko got this payment from an oil company in Prague in 2019 according to his company's FARA disclosures.

What Artemenko didn't tell you is that he was not being paid by an oil company. It was a cut-out for Medvedchuk's Channel 112 in Ukraine (since sanctioned).

I spend at least a few months on the vast majority of my articles. That is how investigative journalism is supposed to work.
Probably really bad for business, but I can't operate any other way!
I've noticed that this means that I don't pursue every story that I find interesting/noteworthy which leads me to my 2022 goal: More original reporting just on Twitter.

This article is *strongly* suggesting that a Kremlin insider with knowledge of the 2016 DNC hacks is turning coats and might help American intelligence. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Interesting @emptywheel piece suggesting that U.S. interest in Klyushin might have something to do with the Trump campaign strategy/polling data shared with Russian intelligence via Manafort/Gates ---> Kilimnik

.@forensicnewsnet is currently under a sustained, large DDoS attack.
@forensicnewsnet We experienced an absolute crush of requests in a very small time period on one of our articles. The traffic is largely coming from the US and the UAE.
@forensicnewsnet Just learned that Lin Wood posted one of our articles in his Telegram channel. This brought a ton of suspicious activity to the site.
