Yep, Republiniggers all fell for these distractions. Biden documents seem nearly completely forgotten about now. All these stupid distractions were very obvious.

I hate how Republicans have an attention span of a 3 year old.

Most of the Republicans voted for $120 billion for Ukraine, while our own economy is threatened with major recession, perhaps a depression. It's time to wake up to the fact that the majority of both major parties in Washington don't give a flying fuck about the pantomime show they put on in front of the cameras.

I'm certain Mr. Pence understands the ultimate fate of Judas Iscariot. It's almost the exact same to a T with what he did to Trump in 2020.

Hope the coin was worth it, you conversion therapist fuckstick.

Funny, I thought this counsel was just for the "CLASIFIED documents," but it now seems to also do January 6th? Is the office sign literally a plaque that says "Orange Man Bad Resistance Room?"

It's an attempt to see if anything is salvageable from either. Hence Pence being pulled in. He's the only person who -might- know of a way to link and combine the two or to dig up something, anything, useable. The subpoena is just theater, he is already working with them but needs the illusion of not.

Remember when the j6 committee said they would refer to the doj for charges?

I dont want to see a single person calling republican investigations wastes of time or money.

Weren't the Biden docs themselves just a pointless distraction? "oooh, look biden has classified like trump! look over there!" Just something to keep republicans involved with republicanation. I think so, I think it was 100% gay.

Republicans are like the referees in a pro wrestling match. They're in on it too, and will gladly go along with the act in order to keep the show going by arguing with someone outside the ring (pointless distraction) while the bad guy (nearly everyone in Washington) uses a steel chair (launders billions of our dollars through Ukraine.)

 

[LurkTrawl]

Hence Pence

Okay, fess up, how long have you been waiting for an excuse to type that? Because I refuse to believe you did this on accident.

I never liked Pence. Something about him set off my danger this person will kill you alarm the first time I saw him.

Trump needs to put whoever recommended he be VP as far away from him as possible.

[General Emílio Médici]

The GOP could have won easy, but they had to shove Oz on that race. Fucking retard who paid some lip service to Trump to et the endorsement and then threw MAGA under the bus by going full RINO.

The GOP doesn't want to win. It is that simple. If they cannot be the party of Bush, McCain and Romney they refuse to be a party at all. They honestly blame Trump supporters for not having a "Vote Red On Every Set" mentality and having the gall to stand their ground.

Experts Believe Chinese Satellite Fired Green Lasers Over Hawaii | ZeroHedge

ZeroHedge - On a long enough timeline, the survival rate for everyone drops to zero

www.zerohedge.com

But on Feb. 6, one week later, NAOJ issued a correction on YouTube that specified the laser beams weren't from a US spacecraft but the "most likely candidate" was a "Chinese Daqi-1/AEMS satellite."

"According to Dr. Martino, Anthony J., a NASA scientist working on ICESat-2 ATLAS, it is not by their instrument but by others," a correction note on the YouTube video explains.

"His colleagues, Dr. Alvaro Ivanoff et al., did a simulation of the trajectory of satellites that have a similar instrument and found a most likely candidate as the ACDL instrument by the Chinese Daqi-1/AEMS satellite.

"We really appreciate their efforts in the identification of the light. We are sorry about our confusion related to this event and its potential impact on the ICESat-2 team."

Mormon Church’s Investment Arm Under Investigation by SEC - WSJ

WSJ News Exclusive | Mormon Church’s Investment Arm Under Investigation by SEC

The $100 billion portfolio of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was long a secret in the investment world.

Cope it was secret but some one snitched

The Securities and Exchange Commission is investigating the Mormon Church’s past efforts to keep its giant investment portfolio a secret, a practice that ended after a former employee revealed in 2019 that the church had amassed $100 billion of holdings.
The SEC’s investigation has focused on whether the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, also known as LDS, complied with disclosure requirements for large money managers. It is at an advanced stage and is likely to lead to a settlement in the coming months, people familiar with the matter said.
The SEC historically has punished violations of money-manager reporting rules by levying fines. The size of the fine being sought by the SEC’s enforcement staff couldn’t be learned. The agency sometimes closes investigations, even those that have reached an advanced stage, without taking formal enforcement action.
The entity at the center of the SEC’s investigation is Ensign Peak Advisors Inc., an investment firm owned by the church that manages its assets. Ensign Peak has made disclosure filings under its own name with the SEC since February 2020.
Doug Andersen, a spokesman for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, declined to confirm or deny the SEC investigation’s existence. “The church works with many government regulators to ensure we are in compliance with the law,” he said. “We take those responsibilities very seriously.” Ensign Peak executives didn’t respond to requests for comment.
The current size of Ensign Peak’s holdings remains a tightly held secret. The firm, based in Salt Lake City, was incorporated in 1997. Under SEC rules, it must disclose some types of investments, like U.S.-listed stocks, that it manages directly, which amounted to roughly $40 billion on Sept. 30. The remainder of the portfolio is made up of investments such as fixed-income securities, private companies or funds. Ensign Peak had an estimated $100 billion of holdings in 2019.
Investment managers with at least $100 million under management publicly report their stockholdings quarterly. The numbers are tracked by public companies and investors. About 5,000 entities file the form, according to SEC data made public in 2020.
The size of the church’s investment holdings first came to light in 2019, after a former Ensign Peak investment manager, David Nielsen, filed a whistleblower complaint with the Internal Revenue Service, claiming that Ensign Peak shouldn’t be treated as a tax-exempt charity because it didn’t engage in any charitable activities.
The complaint showed for the first time how big Ensign Peak had grown. At the time it was more than twice the size of the Harvard endowment and on par with some of the biggest sovereign-wealth funds in the world. “We’ve tried to be somewhat anonymous,” Roger Clarke, then head of Ensign Peak, said in an interview at the time. The firm operated out of a fourth-floor office, above a Salt Lake City food court.
Ensign Peak and church officials said they hadn’t violated any tax laws and that the fund was a rainy-day account to be used in difficult economic times. Mr. Clarke said he believed church leaders were concerned that public knowledge of the scale of the firm’s assets might discourage church members from making donations, known as tithing.
At the time, some church members asked why details about the fund had been tightly held for so long, what the money was for, and whether tithing so much to the church should still be the standard practice.
More recently, attorneys for Mr. Nielsen on Jan. 31 gave a 90-page memo to the Senate Finance Committee in which they alleged that Ensign Peak had made false statements to the IRS in publicly available filings about the size of its assets and whether the firm held foreign bank accounts. Mr. Nielsen’s attorneys asked the committee to investigate.
Mr. Andersen, the church spokesman, said: “The church, along with our investment manager, Ensign Peak Advisors, have only recently been made aware of allegations brought forward by a former Ensign Peak employee. We are always willing to work with government regulators to resolve concerns and are committed to full compliance.” A spokesman for the Senate Finance Committee confirmed it received the memo, but he declined to comment further.
The bar for enforcing the reporting requirement, known as 13-F, is low; regulators don’t have to prove a company intended to violate the rule. Simply failing to file the forms, or omitting required information, is enough to breach the law.
“The SEC is concerned when people don’t file their 13-F reports because it’s information the market isn’t getting that it’s entitled to get under the law,” said Robert Plaze, a partner at Proskauer Rose LLP who previously was a senior official in the SEC division that oversees investment funds and managers.
The data that investment managers are required to disclose is released with a 45-day delay, making it less valuable to traders interested in following the moves of large funds. Even so, public companies tap the information to track their major shareholders, while activist investors use the data to identify the investors whose support they may need during a contest for control of a company.
