You know what is wild about the Ukraine War, their country is getting totally destroyed no matter how many arms we send them, while Russia's countryside is untouched. Well a bridge and a pipeline...

Now that the Dems hold the Senate and the Republicans have the House,
does that mean that the democracy is only half over?

WASHINGTON — Republican Mike Garcia wins reelection to U.S. House in California’s 27th Congressional District.
My comment: It took the media a long time to call another race. This should have been called days ago. His opponent conceded several days ago! Now if we only had 218 Conservatives in Congress.

Wray Refuses To Say If FBI Had Sources 'Dressed As Trump Supporters' On January 6
Wray Refuses To Say If FBI Had Sources 'Dressed As Trump Supporters' On January 6 | ZeroHedge
"Did the FBI have confidential human sources embedded within the Jan. 6 protesters on Jan. 6 of 2021?" Rep. Clay Higgins asked Wray on Tuesday.
"As I’m sure you can appreciate, I have to be very careful about what I can say, about when we do and do not, and where we have and have not used confidential human sources," Wray replied, adding "But to the extent there’s a suggestion, for example, that the FBI’s confidential human sources or FBI employees in someway instigated or orchestrated Jan 6th, that’s categorically false."
Higgins then asked, "Did you have confidential human sources dressed as Trump supporters inside the Capitol on January 6th prior to the doors being opened?"

To which Wray pushed back, "Again, I have to be very careful about what I can say."
"It should be a no!" Higgins interjected. "Can you not tell the American people: ‘no, we did not have confidential human sources dressed as Trump sources positioned inside the Capitol on January the 6th?"
To which Wray replied: "You should not read anything into my decision not to share information about confidential human sources."
“Higgins’s time to question Wray and other Biden administration officials then expired. He did not get to ask more questions later, and no other members pursued the line of questioning further.”
That tells you everything you need to know about our government and whose interests they represent.

SHOCKER! WaPo Sheepishly Admits the FBI Found No Nuclear Secrets, or Anything Else, in Their Mar-a-Lago Raid
There is nothing funnier than watching leftist Punchinellos beclown themselves over the latest “We’ve got Trump NOW!” hijinks.
Remember when the FBI raided Trump’s home supposedly looking for “nuclear secrets” a few months back? Guess how that turned out?
I’ll let the quislings at the Washinton Post spell it out:
Funny how WaPo sat on that story until after the midterms, right?
But wait, there’s more!
So Trump wasn’t selling nuclear secrets on Craigslist after all. Who knew? Everyone. And that likely includes the Department of Justice and the FBI.
Needless to say, WaPo couldn’t just admit the “Trump has nuclear secrets for sale” flapdoodle was the latest Hail Mary pass to send Trump to prison and that it proved to be another flaccid member of “get Trump” orgy. They threw the idea in near the very end that they still might come up with something juicy:

In other words, Trump was keeping souvenirs, as everyone else does.
Funny how WaPo sat on that story until after the midterms, right?
But wait, there’s more!
Not only did the FBI not find any nuclear bomb codes, but they also found no evidence that Trump was looking to “leverage, sell or use the government secrets.”

"Never in my career have I seen such a complete failure of corporate controls and such a complete absence of trustworthy financial information as occurred here."
I know,you're thinking this is about our corrupt US government or Federal Reserve...., but its really about the collape of FTX, a story worth watching. Of course nobody will go to jail, its all backed and protected by........(wait for it) our corrupt US government
----------------
Because how else would one describe it when FTX's new CEO and liquidator, John Ray III, who also oversaw the unwinding and liquidation of Enron, admits that "Never in my career have I seen such a complete failure of corporate controls and such a complete absence of trustworthy financial information as occurred here."
And just in case his shock at FTX's fraud of epic proportions was not clear enough, he adds that "from compromised systems integrity and faulty regulatory oversight abroad, to the concentration of control in the hands of a very small group of inexperienced, unsophisticated and potentially compromised individuals, this situation is unprecedented."
According to Ray, he has located “only a fraction” of the digital assets of the FTX Group that they hope recover during the Chapter 11 bankruptcy. They’ve so far secured about $740 million of cryptocurrency in offline cold wallets, a storage method designed to prevent hacks. This is just a fraction of the $10-$50 billion in liabilities the company disclosed in its bankruptcy filing.
