"A group of internal investigators at the giant cryptocurrency exchange Binance made a series of startling discoveries last year. People in Iran had gained access to more than 1,500 accounts on the Binance platform over the previous year. About $1.7 billion had flowed from two Binance accounts to Iranian entities with links to terrorist groups.

Internal warnings about the Iranian transactions surfaced last year, in the months before Dummkopf Trumpf granted a pardon to Binance's founder, mega-goniff Changpeng Zhao, who had spent four months in federal prison in 2024 for his role in the firm's crimes. The Trumpf Crime Family's (TCF) crypto start-up, World Liberty Financial, has forged close business ties with Binance, and the sinister Changpeng Zhao was a guest this month at a conference of avaricious no-goodniks at Mar-a-Lago, the draft dodging geriatric morbidly obese pedophile's gaudy club in Palm Beach, FL. "

Along with grotesque mega-oligarchs Felon Musk and Larry Ellison, the nefarious Changpeng Zhao is in close contention to be the "Worst Person in the World."

This makes at least 150 people murdered by the nefarious Trumpf junta without trial, otherwise known as Extra-Judicial Killing (XJK).

The US has plenty of money to kill people worldwide and at home, but doesn't have the money to give us universal healthcare, as enjoyed by the residents of Germany, Israel, Greenland, Denmark, Canada, Taiwan, the UK, or tiny Albania.

And the belligerent Trumpf junta is stunned as to why Leo XIV, the first American Pope ever, declined an invitation from good-for-nothing VPOTUS JD Vance to celebrate America250 with us.

Really?

In terms of global military firepower, Iran is ranked 16 out of 145 countries.

Neighboring Turkiye is ranked 9/145.

American taxpayer-funded nuclear power Israel is ranked 15/145.

Poor Venezuela was ranked 51/145.

"Ryan Schwank, who resigned from his job at an ICE academy in Georgia last week, told congressional Democrats at a hearing that the agency eliminated 240 hours of "vital classes" from a mandatory 580-hour training program, including instruction about the legal boundaries for the use of force, how to safely handle firearms, and the proper way to detain and arrest immigrants.

"Law enforcement is a deadly serious business. It is not a place for shortcuts," Schwank said. "Deficient training can and will get people killed. ... ICE is lying to Congress and the American people about the steps it is taking to ensure that 12,000 officers can faithfully uphold the Constitution and perform their jobs."

Ahead of the hearing, Schwank provided a joint panel of House and Senate Democrats copies of internal ICE documents that he said show the extent of the cuts. The documents indicated that the Federal Law Enforcement Training Centers (FLETC) in Glynco, Georgia, shortened its training program from 72 days to 42 days.

Several of the lawmakers repeated calls for D/DHS Secretary Kristi L. Noem to resign or be impeached."

As a double graduate of FLETC from decades ago (uniformed and criminal investigator), I can tell you that Constitutional Law training was stressed. In fact, we helped the "Tackleberries" in our class study with index cards before the final test. One of my friends (a former US Army Ranger and Special Forces NCO), who was already an expert with firing weapons and hand-to-hand combat, was terrified of the final exam on Constitutional Law. So, we studied together. After the test results were handed out, we looked at each other in the classroom. "Whew!" 70!" he signaled me. For the final exam where we were tested in non-compliant arrests and other mischief, the "Tacklelberries" in turn would partner up with us bookworms. "Whew! Pass!" I signaled to my friend.

Nota Bene: Thanks to Kashyap Pramod Vinod Patel, the once rigorous four-month long plus FBI Academy was similarly shortened to a scant eight weeks and a college degree is no longer required. Today, enlisted US Army MPs receive more training than FBI Special Agents. If I were to apply to NYC DOI or any agency for a position, I would ask for a non-lethal sidearm and emphasize that I underwent undiluted training and not this "here's your gun and badge, go get'em cowboy training" we see today.

Yum!

The late actor Robert Duvall and Sean Penn played in a movie last century about the LAPD and gangs.

The cops that brandish tattoos today are basically uniformed gang members, like ICE.

LA county correctional officers ran gladiator fights between juvenile detainees.

Those of you old enough to remember the British "Profumo affair" and the "Cambridge Five" scandals will see this Epstein fandango will be just as damaging. But the "Profumo affair" helped to topple Harold Macmillan's Conservative government.

UK PM Keir Starmer (Labor Party) may survive a no confidence vote if the Serious Crimes Office, now called the National Crime Agency (NCA), nets more Royals and Lords and other highly-placed muckety-mucks.

And right now the UK needs a solid anti-Kremlin government to help Ukraine and counter Vladimir Putin.

Epstein's nefarious empire is damaging the West five years after he somehow killed himself in near impossible conditions in his secure cell in the MCC.
