Biden Executive Order bans US govt agencies from using commercial spyware that poses a risk to national security.
Such as Pegasus software that was used against US govt personnel & likely many others.
Software companies that sell to bad guys can't sell to US
#ButNothingsHappening
So if softwar companies want to sell spyware to the US IC & law enforcement, they can't sell it to anyone who uses it against the US or for repression against other citizens.
So I'm guessing that all the spyware companies that spied on Trump, reporters, & the FBI in 2016 are going to be prohibited from US govt contracts!
whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/…
Interesting time with the Netanyahu protests in Israel that these categories apply to Bibi's friends at Isreali spyware company NSO Group. It might hit Rodney Joffe's company Neustar too...

Using spyware to disclose US govt information, like that spying on the Obama & Trump WHs.
Sounds like Spygate...

Like when Joffe working for Hillary's lawyer Sussmann was illegally accessing White House & other government & IP data & databases to search for derogatory information on Trump then leak a twisted version of it to the press.
Wonder if this means Durham has found evidence that US government agencies (DARPA, NSA, DIA) requested Joffe & his team to spy upon Trump...

It will now be a violation of this executive order...
And it likely wasn't before because it was 'commercial' spyware.
Within 90 days & every 6 months going forward, all agencies will have to report any intelligence or information about all foreign spyware companies using software in violation of these policies.
Any agency deciding that a contractor is in compliance or not but be documented & provided to the DNI for their compliance report. No buying the software & not telling anyone about it to keep it secret.
They have to give notice of the decision & their due dilligence at least 7 days before beginning to use the software.
Agency heads may issue a 1 year waiver if thre is no feasible alternative to the commercial spyware that poses a national security risk.

But the Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs (National Security Advisor) & DNI must be notified within 72 hours.
Agencies have 6 months to report any operational use of commercial spyware products & what they have done to implement this policy.

Then annually the agencies have to certify that any commercial spyware that they are using odes not pose a national security threat.

If you are just learning about the Swamp creature named Leonard Leo & his control of ‘conservative’ judges who work for Fortune 500 multinational corporations instead of the American people; now is your chance to catch up.
#ButNothingsHappening
Leo’s friends then use your fake news to tell you that you should blindly support judicial rulings disguised as protecting the Constitution. When in reality, they are protecting Swampy relationships between corrupt companies & the politicians they own.
Why does your fake news want MAGA to support judges controlled by ’sleazeball’ Leonard Leo?

Because they believe that it’s very important that you support the judges who work for the Swamp.

How do they control them? Consulting fees, gifts & trips.

The Trump Rope-a-Dope with Vladimr Putin is over!
Now comes the knock out blows!

Putin has to throw in the towel today or be destroyed!
Trump knows Putin can't admit defeat, so will be defeated!

The Pro-Putin former commies from Germany are no longer weakening NATO.
You can see my earlier discussion on this topic here.

Gone are the days of German leaders from East Germany, weakening NATO by not spending their agreed upon defense budget.
Gone are the days fo German politicians buying energy from Russia & taking Swampy deals & well paid seats on Russian company boards.

Credit Suisse pleads guilty & flips for helping 475 US account holders hide billions from the IRS in off-shore accounts.
They have also signed a deferred prosecution agreement for other crimes & agreed to cooperate!
Crimes from 2010-2021!
#ButNothingsHappening
Credit Suisse will pay $510M in fines & penalties in addition to the guilty plea.

After corrupt bankers collapsed Credit Suisse, UBS bought them & are now also forced to comply with the cooperation agreement!

It's a 2 for 1 special! Image
The reason for the requirement to plead guilty is likely because when they committed these crimes, they were under a Deferred Prosecution Agreement signed in 2014 that required their cooperation.
They didn't think DOJ would hold them to it!

People on all sides still believe the Russia Hoax that told them Trump & Putin are on the same side.

But that enabled Trump to rope-a-dope Putin into expecting Trump to hand him a victory in Ukraine that Russia's army can't achieve.

The Russians are figuring out it was a trap!
Russia can't win the war militarily.
It has lost the war economically.

Trump baited Putin along to ensure that Russia is taken off the table before we confront China.

Trump has created a scenario where Putin can lose or lose everything.

The presence of Chinese soldiers with the Russian Army isn't new. But why do you think it is big news now?

Because the US his highlighting China's involvment in the war as leverage.

You think the only thing Trump wants from China is to reduce their tariffs & protectionism? Image

I wonder if the Clintons get to keep their 'donations' for engineering the US taxpayers to pay for those Boeing to China sales?

#ButNothingsHappening
The Clintons & their foundation board member Terry McAuliffe helped Boeing violate sanctions & fund China's World's Fair in 2010.
Boeing also got caught exporting defense technology to China as part of its business relationship with China.

How long before people realize that Trump sets up cases to get precedents set in court?
Once the exact parameters & processes for using the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 are confirmed deporting Tren de Aragua, how long does Trump wait to use it on China's 1000 Talents spy program? Image
It would be very easy to prove in court by the precedents set at this time that the 1000 Talents program is a predatory incursion against the United States by the Chinese government.

And Trump set the stage during his 1st term!

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thousand_…
In 2018, the Trump White House laid out the threat posed by Chinese economic encroachment into the US economy.
