Your Moral And Intellectual Superiors

NY Post;

A Pulitzer Prize-winning Washington Post journalist was arrested and charged after authorities allegedly discovered child porn on his work computer, DC US Attorney Jeanine Pirro announced Friday.

Thomas Pham LeGro, a 48-year-old video editor at the news outlet, was taken into custody on Thursday after FBI agents raided his Washington, DC, home and discovered a folder on his work laptop which contained 11 videos depicting child sexual abuse material, according to Pirro’s office.

FBI agents also discovered “fractured pieces of a hard drive in the hallway outside the room where LeGro’s work laptop was found,” during the execution of the search warrant. […]

As a member of WaPo’s video department, he was part of a team of reporters that won a prestigious Pulitzer Prize in 2017 for coverage of former Alabama Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore.

Moore threatened to sue the Washington Post that year after the outlet published allegations that he romantically pursued a 14-year-old girl when he was in his 30s, which he vehemently denied.

A spokesperson for the Washington Post said Legro has been placed on leave.

When The Elbows Go Up In A Forest

And nobody cares.

Featured comment by Orsen, in the comments;

A couple things going under the radar:

Back in February, the oil refineries in the US started a slow turn. Margin refineries (these are the ones that go about 50/50 Heavy crude/ Light sweet crude) started moving towards Light sweet crude. Decisions were being made for future alterations. Canada provides about 70% of their Heavy Crude for US refining. However, there is a slow move towards refining light sweet crude which is the US basic resource. It’s an expensive switch, and a slow moving one. But, that’s the trend.

Now, today, Marco Rubio (and Trump) announced the end of the war in the Congo with Rwanda. That’s sort of a peripheral issue no one can really relate to as directly effecting us here. However, take a look at the primary export of Rwanda (and keep in mind that Trump and Rubio usually approach these conflicts economically). The primary export is Niobium. This is a chemical used to strengthen stainless steel. It is used primarily to harden oil pipelines and well structures. Just saying. Negotiating positions are ALWAYS fluid.

Transgender Is A Stalking Horse For The Normalization Of Pedophilia

Via HotAir, Andrew Sullivan;

In the gay rights movement, there had always been an unspoken golden rule: Leave children out of it. We knew very well that any overreach there could provoke the most ancient blood libel against us: that we groom and abuse kids. You can bring up your children however you like, we promised. We will leave you alone. We will leave your children alone.

So what did the gender revolutionaries go and do?

New Governor, Same As The Old Governor

Toronto Sun;

Proactive disclosures filed after June’s G7 summit in Kananaskis show the round table world leaders huddled around last weekend cost taxpayers $258,300.

The table, designed and built by Calgary-based furniture maker Möbius Objects, consisted of a beige finish and included a number of surrounding desks for staffers.

According to the disclosure, Möbius Objects was awarded the Global Affairs Canada table tender in a two-bid competition, chosen on Jan. 15 by Public Services and Procurement Canada due to a “highest combined rating of technical merit and price,” with a June 4 delivery date.

Inquiries to Global Affairs Canada by the Toronto Sun went unacknowledged.

SCOTUS: “The Party Is Over”

More analysis from Margot Cleveland and Jonathan Turley.

Julie Kelly: Amy Coney Barrett took a blowtorch to KBJ.

Indeed: “We will not dwell on JUSTICE JACKSON’s argument, which is at odds with more than two centuries’ worth of precedent, not to mention the Constitution itself. We observe only this: JUSTICE JACKSON decries an imperial Executive while embracing an imperial Judiciary.”

@JonathanTurley …We have our fourth opinion. It is Mahmoud v. Taylor, by Justice Alito. Huge 6-3victory for parental rights over the ability to withdraw their children from LGBTQ lessons. … The Court includes pictures from these books to drive home these points…

This Is CNN

Body language.

Update;(h/t Orson).

The top-secret Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) assessment that claimed Iran’s nuclear sites suffered only moderate damage likely relied on faulty information from deceitful Iranian sources, according to several former U.S. intelligence officers, one of whom described the document as so unreliable “you can wipe your ass with it.”
