ROSENSTEIN: FBI Leaked ‘Classified Evidence’ In Russia Probe to Lawmakers
The Deputy Attorney General dropped some damning information related to the FBI’s handling of the Russia investigation.
By Peter D’Abrosca
Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein spoke at an Armenian Bar Association gathering Thursday night, where dropped bombshell information related to the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) handling of the Russian “collusion” probe.
“The FBI disclosed classified evidence about the investigation to ranking legislators and their staffers,” he said. “Someone selectively leaked details to the news media.”
And there you have it. The Deputy Attorney General admitted that the FBI illegally leaked classified intel to lawmakers, which then ended up in the hands of the press. The goal was obvious – burn President Donald J. Trump in the court of public opinion.
When Trump was criticizing the FBI brass over its handling of the probe, the fake news media attacked him, attempting to make him look like he was subverting the rule of law. As it turns out, Trump was right all along. The feds were, indeed, working against him.
Rosenstein also criticized the Obama administration’s handling of the investigation.
“Some critical decisions about the Russia investigation were made before I got there,” Rosenstein said. “The previous Administration chose not to publicize the full story about Russian computer hackers and social media trolls, and how they relate to a broader strategy to undermine America.”
So, the previous administration knew that social media trolls were involved in attempts to interfere with American elections. It did nothing to stop such attempts. Instead, it let Trump take the fall, setting him to look like a Russian stooge.
ISIS, AL-QAEDA TERRORIST CAMPS IN LATIN AMERICA, MOSCOW WARNS
Meanwhile, Central Americans pouring into US en masse
APRIL 26, 2019
The activity of jihadists affiliated to Islamic State and Al-Qaeda has been spotted in Latin America as they recruit fighters and promote extremist ideology among local Muslims, Russian GRU chief Igor Kostyukov said.
“Among the new risk factors is the emergence of jihadist training camps and hideouts in the region,” Igor Kostyukov, the head of Russia’s main intelligence directorate (the GRU), said during the annual Moscow Conference on International Security.
The jihadists currently operating in Latin America are linked to Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS) and Al-Qaeda, he added.

“They recruit fighters to bolster their ranks in the Middle East and North Africa, collect funds and promote extremist ideology among the region’s six-million Muslim population,” Kostyukov warned.
He didn’t name specific countries where the jihadist camps have been discovered.
Last year, Guatemalan President Jimmy Morales Cabrera said that around 100 people linked to IS and other groups were arrested in his country and deported to where they came from.
RASHIDA TLAIB SAYS SHE WAS “AFRAID” OF AMERICANS AFTER 9/11
Democratic Congresswoman says post-September 11 atmosphere made her “angry”
APRIL 26, 2019
Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib says she was “afraid” of her fellow Americans after 9/11 and that their reaction to the terror attacks made her “angry”.
In an interview with Makers, Tlaib said; “I was probably my second year in law school when 9/11 happened and I was really terrified of what was going to happen to my husband, who’s only a green card holder at the time”.
“I immediately called my brothers and told them to be very careful who you hang out with, telling my sisters, you know, just be real careful out there,” said Tlaib, who emphasized that she was “really afraid of my fellow Americans” after the attack.
The Democratic Congresswoman said the whole experience made her “angry” and more determined to become involved in politics.

Quite how Tlaib thought she was the victim after the slaughter of thousands of Americans by Islamic extremists is not elaborated upon in the interview.
Amy Mek posted the interview alongside footage (confirmed to be accurate) of Palestinians celebrating in the streets on the day of 9/11.
Tlaib has repeatedly emphasized her pride in her Palestinian heritage, which some have cited to accuse her of being a closet Islamist.
While no one is suggesting that Tlaib was glad 9/11 happened, her bizarre comments about the attack are on a par with Rep. Ilhan Omar’s equally absurd statement when she described the terror outrage as “some people (who) did something”.
Tlaib has repeatedly defended Omar, suggesting that criticism of her statement is akin to inciting violence.
What do you think about Tlaib’s remarks about 9/11? Let us know in the comments below.
AOC Mistakes Fellow Democrat as ‘Older Male’ Republican, Mocks Him for Posing with Cardboard Cutout of Her
By Kristina Wong
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) on Thursday apparently mistook one of the most prominent Democrats in the House as a Republican, and mocked him for taking a photo with a cardboard cutout of her in a tweet.
The freshman congresswoman shared a tweet by the Republican Party of Kentucky that featured the House Budget Committee Chairman John Yarmuth (D-KY) taking a photo next to a cardboard cutout of her.
Apparently not realizing who Yarmuth was, she mocked him by tweeting, “GOP: Let’s pose our older male members next to cardboard cutouts of young female legislators”:
After Twitter users began to point out her mistake, she deleted the tweet.
It is not the first time the 29-year-old Democrat has made an embarrassing gaffe on Twitter. She mixed up the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan just last month.
Ocasio-Cortez said recently on Yahoo’s Skullduggery podcast that she writes all her own tweets.
Her mistaking Yarmuth for an “older male” member of the Republican Party will likely not endear her to Democrat membership, who have increasingly made disparaging comments about her.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) recently said a “glass of water” with a “D next to its name” could have won Ocasio-Cortez’s district.
Sweden: Christian migrants repeatedly attacked by Muslim migrants fear civil war will break out in the country
By EMMA R.
Today, around 120,000 Syriac Christians reside in Sweden. While many of them fled genocide in the Middle East, attacks against their churches and threats against their organisations are still not uncommon.
Following repeated threats, the Syriac National Federation in Sweden has stepped up security measures, from camera surveillance to its own security guards, the news outlet Samhällsnytt reported.
A recent Facebook post by the Syriac National Federation has detailed expletive-loaded threats it received from speakers of Arabic.
According to the federation’s spokesperson, this is not the first time such an incident has occurred. Most often, he said, the callers speak either Swedish with a thick Middle Eastern accent or even Arabic.
The police, however, chose not to investigate the matter, explaining that obscene language is not illegal.
“As soon as something happens in the Middle East or we are somehow visible in the media, we get these calls, so we are used to this.”
“At one point they say they will do the same to us in Sweden as they did in the Middle East. A genocide has been carried out in the Middle East against Christians. We have fled these groupings to Sweden, but they have caught up with us here”, the spokesperson said.
The Syriac National Federation has repeatedly turned to the authorities, but found no understanding, except among the Christian Democrats.
According to Samhällsnytt, there is a widespread feeling of resignation among Syriacs in Sweden amid concerns over the future of the rule of law and the state’s ability to protect people and prosecute crimes.
“We expect some fucking civil war between different groups unless someone puts their foot down. The people who did terrible acts in the Middle East, they are here now… and no one seems to care”, the spokesperson concluded.
Syriac churches in Sweden have witnessed a series of bomb and arson attacks, such as the Saint Afrem church in Södertälje and the Saint Mary church in Norrköping.
The incidents have caused strong reactions in the Syriac circles. While some argued that the time was ripe to leave Sweden if the state is unable to protect all its citizens, others suggested to get “a police force of our own” in the comments.
