Good morning from the war court media center at Fort Meade, Maryland. A pretrial hearing is underway in the Bali bombing case at Guantanamo Bay and I am watching via video feed. https://t.co/idGogkem2a

Another GD narrative suggests that the West only provided Georgia with “water and diapers” during the 2008 war. This is false. The US led a robust humanitarian mission and provided military assistance to secure key Georgian infrastructure.

Russian National Indicted for Series of Ransomware Attacks
“June 2017, Ryzhenkov allegedly gained unauthorized access to the information stored on victims’ computer networks. Ryzhenkov and his conspirators then allegedly deployed the strain of ransomware known as BitPaymer and used it to encrypt the files of the victim companies, rendering them inaccessible.”

Buffalo's mayor announced he'll resign soon to take a $295k+ job at Western Regional Off-Track Betting.

A move that absolutely insures my colleague @JDale_Shoemaker and I — who first reported about the move in February — will continue to write about him:

Good afternoon from Camp Justice at Guantanamo Bay on Day 4 of psychiatric testimony about differing diagnoses of the 9/11 defendant Ammar al Baluchi. Today we heard from David Hanrahan, a psychiatrist who as a Navy officer treated or evaluated hundreds of Marine combat vets.

This is Moscow today.

Russian media report over 20 Ukrainian drones intercepted over the city (though this one wasn’t) and 144 drones intercepted across Russia.

Key things:

1. Russian official media are no longer downplaying these attacks—they can’t ignore them anymore 1/

Other great lines from the piece:

"He is the Walter Mitty of Augusto Pinochets."

"Kamala Harris could be Vladimir Lenin himself, and Trump would still be precisely what he is." (Yes, THIS is what I have been saying, too.)

Forestry Service orders private equity firm to stop pumping water from California's San Bernardino mountains. Blue Triton acquired water rights when they bought a bottled water firm. Since then, pumping increased, but 94-98% isn't bottled but used for "undisclosed purposes"🧵1/5

@Sergei4Congress @PatriotDave77 @Sergei4Congress at age 22 left his homeland a few months before Belarus declared sovereignty from the Soviet Union. Interesting Sergei did not stay to help promote Belarusian independence, freedom, and democracy. The Belarus independence movement was quite active in the 1980s.

[File411 @File411]

you don’t have to take my word for it:
a pre-sentence report will factor in: the defendant’s acceptance of responsibility (aka remorse), behavior & assets the danger to the community at large
read this because the Judge will consider “prior statements yo”
