It's the biggest political hoax since Titus Oates's allegations of a "Popish Plot" to assassinate King Charles II in 1678. Oates's charge of a Jesuit conspiracy swept through London and led to the execution of four innocent men before Oates was proved a fraud.
The full consequences of the great political hoax of our time -- the charge that former President Donald Trump was colluding with Russia -- are not yet fully apparent....
....Trump is charged with violating the political norm of not challenging a close election result. The thought is that if you question an election result, you weaken the legitimacy of, and unnecessarily distract, a president and you weaken the United States.
It's a norm that Richard Nixon observed in 1960 and that, after litigating unsuccessfully, Al Gore observed in 2000. It's not a norm that Clinton has observed in 2016 or in the years since.
She and her advisers damaged the nation by promoting false charges against a duly elected president. She owes the nation an apology, just as Oates owed England an apology 343 years ago.
Jake Sullivan, national security adviser in the Biden administration, may be guilty of perjury related to the Hillary Clinton campaign’s dirty tricks against Donald Trump........
Lying to Congress is a felony. Though the offense is rarely prosecuted, former special counsel Robert Mueller won convictions of two of Trump’s associates on charges of that very offense.

Looks like a clip-on identification badge attached to his right trouser pocket.
Something in the pocket, may be a wallet or a smart phone.

Interesting, the BTC kings banning BTC? Reaction to Evergrande? The last thing the CCP needs is to have money fleeing the country undetected. Seems like a sign the CCP has too many fires going, and a signal that BTC is unstable at best.
