🚨🇺🇸BREAKING: The CIA officer caught with $40 million in gold bars allegedly invented an entire fake top-secret spy program to steal the money.
As if this story couldn't get and wilder:
-David Rush allegedly built a sham "special access program," the blackest box in U.S. intelligence, so secret even top-clearance officials couldn't look inside without authorization
-The fake program posed as "continuity of government" work, the doomsday planning that keeps Washington running after a nuclear war
-He allegedly read in two colleagues as unwitting accomplices and used a made-up government contract to funnel millions, persuading a defense contractor to buy huge amounts of gold
-The FBI raid on his home seized 303 gold bars worth roughly $40 million, $2 million in cash, and 35 luxury watches
-Investigators say he lied about his college degrees, faked being a Navy pilot, and still sailed through the CIA's notoriously brutal vetting
-A judge ordered him held as a flight risk, and several CIA officials are now on leave as the probe widens
The scheme worked because of the system, not in spite of it.
The secrecy walls built to hide operations from China and Russia hid the fraud from the CIA itself.
A man with a fake résumé ran a fake doomsday program inside the most paranoid institution in America, and for years nobody noticed...

The lone accuser of @grahamformaine is the same GOP operative who was the anonymous source behind the tattoo. And she was founder of Ladies for Kavanaugh! Come on. Is this a joke? Brazen hatchet job. They targeted him and actually got nothing other than the original operative.
BREAKING: Iran says that if Trump carries out his Strait of Hormuz blockade on April 13th, Iran will respond by taking control of the Bab el-Mandeb Strait to the Red Sea with the Houthis.
This would cut off another 12% of global energy supply, bringing the total shortfall to 32%
The CFTC possesses the exact clearing data to identify the beneficial owner of this $1.5 billion block trade within seconds. Regulators deliberately choose permanent blindness when market manipulation intersects directly with executive branch communications. A 14 minute delta between a massive futures acquisition and a geopolitical de escalation announcement represents textbook criminal front running. Zero indictments will follow this event because current enforcement mechanisms exist exclusively to police retail traders, not institutional insiders.
"I'm frustrated seeing JK put up this type of effort after he essentially quit on the Warriors... The Hawks are in the honeymoon phase right now. I'm looking at Jonathan Kuminga like a toxic ex-girlfriend."
@MarkusBoucher isn't fooled by Kuminga's early Atlanta success.
When Curry returns he’s gonna be so frustrated playing with this group. But then again he didn’t advocate for JK who could have helped him. Last year JK AND curry went on a 10 game streak as the 2 leading scorers in the entire NBA. Now he’s stuck with Gp2 and Podz 🤣.
