This is Trump donor and Mar-a-Lago neighbor John Cafaro who got the no-bid contract to install a water purification system for the reflecting pool. He has 2 prior convictions, one for bribing a member of Congress and another for an illegal loan that violated campaign finance laws.
EXCL: Nigel Farage has been trying to block Bank of England cryptocurrency plan that could be costly for billionaire bankrolling his party.
Reform UK leader has said Christopher Harborne wants nothing in exchange for millions donated to party and undeclared £5m personal gift to Farage revealed by Guardian.
But Farage used private meeting at Bank to urge governor to drop plans for state-run alternative to digital currency that has made his Thailand-based benefactor one of richest people in world.

The Under-16s social media ban, in my opinion, is a bad thing. Not necessarily because the ban doesn't have merits, but because the way this will be enforced will have a knock-on impact to all of us.
Proof will be in the enforcement details.
oh YES.
Since the 1980s, Xerox and Canon made a secret deal with the US Secret Service. every color laser printer now embeds invisible yellow dots on every single page it produces. too small to see with the naked eye. they repeat up to 150 times per page so they survive cropping, damage, even shredding.
the dots encode:
— your printer's serial number
— the exact date and time of printing
— the manufacturer
no law requires manufacturers to tell you this. most printer manuals don't mention it. you almost certainly didn't know.
The first use case was counterfeiting. catching people printing fake money. reasonable.
Then, in 2017, Reality Winner printed a classified NSA document and mailed it to journalists. investigators cross-referenced the yellow dots with security footage. she was identified, arrested, and sentenced to 5 years.
because there is no law regulating who can request this information. no warrant requirement. no oversight. the EFF has been saying this since 2004 and nothing has changed.
you can check if your printer does this. the EFF maintains a list: https://t.co/mffS4X92kw
Elon vowed to cure world hunger if the World Food Program could outline a plan to do so for 6 billion. They did, and Elon did absolutely nothing, and has become the world's first trillionaire.
This man also systematically dismantled the US' foreign aid programs after this time. So not only did he not fulfil his promise, he actually deprived millions more of food, emergency healthcare and other life saving supports.
With less than .5% of his net worth he could save 10s of millions, real human lives.
He spends his days shitposting on Twitter and he was even stupid enough to tank his companies in valuation by literal 100s of billions just to call some guy a pedo, and people applaud him.
We shouldn't live in a world where millions die of hunger while others have more money than most countries. Humans have their priorities screwed up.
Turns out Hannah Spencer's blouse definitely isn't Gucci and didn't cost £2,000
Farage, on the other hand, definitely received 5 million and didn't declare it
My friend took his family to see the Michael Jackson movie and his son claimed it was the greatest movie he’d ever seen but I’m a real MJ fan so I don’t believe the accounts of little boys
As a reminder, almost 11 years ago, Jeffrey Epstein took this picture of the world’s first trillionaire.
We need a revolution against the treachery of elites.
