“[Farage] would sidle up to me and growl: ‘Hitler was right’ or ‘gas them’, sometimes adding a long hiss to simulate the sound of the gas showers […] I’d never experienced antisemitism growing up, so the first time that this vicious verbal abuse came out of Farage’s mouth....."
Twenty people allege he has a racist past. He denies it. Who’s telling the truth about Farage’s schooldays?

The US buildup of forces is of no concern to Venezuela or anyone else. These movements meet all international law, and any talk otherwise is just "mainstream media" trying to start WWIII & justify another obscene order for Russian weapons from Venezuela.

Apparently that's how this works.
Over sixty political leaders from across Europe have issued an urgent warning against what they describe as a “prelude to invasion” of Venezuela, denouncing the escalating presence of U.S. naval and air power in the Caribbean.

An investigation into Senator Kelly is just another big fail coming up, this time for the 'Department of War'.

The only question is how many investigators and lawyers will get fired because they (truthfully) conclude this has no merit.

The judge also said interim US attorney Lindsey Halligan’s appointment violated laws limiting DOJ's ability to install top prosecutors without Senate confirmation.

In a dramatic legal turn, a federal court in the Eastern District of Virginia dismissed the indictment against former FBI Director James Comey.

👉 Because the statute of limitations in Comey’s case has expired, this prevents any future charging.
