Dutch Catch Russians Hackers Outside The Hague. Yep, Midterms Are Gonna Be Hacked.
Russia's military intelligence agency, the GRU, used a trunkful of electronics to attack the Organization for the Prevention of Chemical Weapons earlier this year, Dutch officials said on Thursday.
Dutch authorities escorted four Russian intelligence officers out of the country hours after the car they had rented was found parked near the OPCW's building in The Hague, its trunk full of gear for hacking WiFi networks. A large antenna was sitting on top of the equipment, which was on and running, using a battery that had been placed in the trunk.






Pence Is Pointing His Finger At Chinese Hacking The Midterms, Not Russia
Vice President Pence on Thursday accused China of meddling in U.S. elections with the aim of hurting President Trump and the Republican Party, the latest sign of the administration taking a tough line against Beijing ahead of the November midterms.




I am a former prosecutor. I've never seen a law enforcement investigation where agents don't interview the accuser or request to interview the accused. The #FBIReport is incomplete and designed to reach a preordained result. - Rep. Ted Lieu

Trump's Failing Golf Club
Donald Trump’s flagship Scottish golf resort has incurred multimillion pound losses for the fourth consecutive year under his ownership.
The US president’s Turnberry resort ran up losses of £3.38m last year. It means that since he took over the South Ayrshire enclave in 2014, its losses total nearly £33m.
The latest annual loss is notable, given it covers the first full year of operations since the reopening of the resort after an extensive redevelopment of both its hotel and Ailsa golf course.

Jesus, Mary and Joseph. Who's Running These Detention Facilities? The Marquis de Sade?
A Nicaraguan man who was detained at the Adelanto ICE Processing Center died in March 2017 after he was found hanging in his cell from his bedsheets. Not long after, two other detainees also used sheets in an attempt to hang themselves.
When federal officials arrived in May of this year for a surprise inspection of the privately run immigration detention facility, they found nooses made from bedsheets in 15 of 20 cells.
“When we asked two contract guards who oversaw the housing units why they did not remove the bedsheets, they echoed it was not a high priority,” officials with the Department of Homeland Security inspector general’s office wrote in a scathing report made public Tuesday detailing dangerous conditions found at the facility during their unannounced visit.





“You can do or say something that women don’t like, and suddenly millions of women will come out of the woodwork and vote against you," Trump said. "I think it’s a disgrace.” - Andy Borowitz

When All Else Fails, Just Change The Word.
After President Trump was caught on-camera telling a reporter she “never” thinks during a Monday afternoon press conference, the White House moved to retroactively fix the president’s blunder by changing a word in the official transcript. While the president told ABC News reporter Cecilia Vega, “I know you’re not thinking. You never do,” the White House transcript reads, “I know you’re not thanking. You never do.”


I just hope that  somebody asks this question: “Judge Kavanaugh, you have a 13-year-old daughter.  In two years, when she comes to you and says, ‘Daddy, I’m going to a party with some boys from Georgetown Prep,’ what advice will you give to her?” - Rick Wise
