Racist USA Today Publishes Editorial Attacking President Trump’s National Security Team as “Too White” and Thus Illegitimate in Our Enlightened Age of Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity

When President Donald Trump strode to the podium last week to tell America what would happen next with Iran, he clearly wanted to project his vision of American strength. He stood amid top members of his national security team, including the Joint Chiefs of Staff and other military officers. All men and all white.
While it was a clear display of U.S. military might, as well as Trump signaling that he had the full support of his team (something that can never be taken for granted in this administration), this carefully choreographed moment sent another message: The only people who can handle this national security crisis are white men.
This message was hammered home again later in the day, when the White House released new photos of Trump huddling with his national security team in the Situation Room, discussing the Iran crisis. Again, everyone pictured was white and male, with the exception of Stephanie Grisham, the White House press secretary. It should be noted that Gina Haspel, Trump’s CIA director and the first woman to ever hold that job, reportedly called in to those meetings, and for whatever reason was not part of the group that stood next to the president during his Wednesday speech.
Throwback to white, male America
While these tableaus have become standard in the Trump administration, it can still take your breath away to see such a complete lack of diversity presented as the public image of the United States in the year 2020. This is especially true when Trump hosts foreign leaders like the Saudi crown prince or travels to countries where the rights of women and minorities are under assault. Instead of setting an example for the rest of the world, the United States, under Trump, is sanctioning a worldview that excludes women and people of color from positions of power and influence.
More than taking a stand:Diversity is good for business, not just social justice, and colleges should say so
The problem with their absence isn’t just optics. It means the president and his team are not getting the best national security advice available. In November, Defense Secretary Mark Esper tweeted a photo of himself with a group of “think tank experts,” after a discussion with them about China and “the opportunities/challenges in the Indo-Pacific region.” All 12 men pictured were white. Not to knock their expertise, but if you’re going to assemble a group to discuss China and the region, maybe include a few experts from the region? Also, some of the top Asia specialists in Washington are women. Excluding them from the conversation is not just Esper’s loss but the country’s.
Personnel choices will outlast Trump
With the Trump administration, that’s usually the best it can do. We’ve come to expect this of Trump, given that he and his political allies are associated with white nationalism.
The U.S. military, however, should do better. There is no good reason why its leaders cannot reflect the racial diversityof their troops, especially at a time when the military is struggling to address problems of white supremacy and far-right extremism in its ranks.
Women, meanwhile, have long faced barriers to entry for the military’s top leadership roles, but the recent acknowledgment of the front-line roles women were already playing, plus the new combat positions opening up for them, is expected to improve their professional advancement.
Defining diversity:Democrats’ debate lineup could be all white, but diversity isn’t only about race
There are also outside groups, such as the Leadership Council for Women in National Security, working to improve the situation. The council is asking presidential candidates to commit to diversity when making their senior national security and foreign policy appointments. Seventeen candidates have signed a pledge to do so; the president is not one of them.
In fact, whether Trump wins or loses reelection, his personnel choices (not to mention his policies) will have lasting impacts on diversity long after he’s president. For example, about 70% of Trump’s judicial appointees are white men, meaning they will be shaping the federal court system and making decisions that affect all Americans for decades to come.
The judiciary is hardly unique. According to The Atlantic, the White House has named twice as many men as women to administration positions. This isn’t just giving white men an advantage now, but the valuable experience they will gain in their government posts they can use throughout their careers.
In 2020, it shouldn’t be necessary to remind anyone that women and minorities deserve access to these opportunities, too. Clearly, with this administration, it is.
You can hate President Trump all you want for the perceived failures of his administration, but it’s articles such as this (published in The USA Today) reminding where the real hate in America is entirely directed toward…

thelibertydaily--2020-01-27--Neil Gorsuch Issues Savage Rebuke to Activist Judges and Nationwide Injunctions

On Monday , the Supreme Court allowed the Trump administration 's public charge rule to go into effect , striking down a nationwide injunction from a New York judge .
The rule allows the government to deny green cards to immigrants who receive public assistance and are therefore considered a `` public charge . ''
In addition to the 5-4 decision allowing the rule to go into effect , Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch issued a concurring opinion rebuking activist judges and their rush to apply `` nationwide injunctions '' against Trump administration policies .
`` Today the Court ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the government to pursue ( for now ) its policy everywhere save Illinois .
But , in light of all that ’ s come before , it would be delusional to think that one stay today suffices to remedy the problem .
The real problem here is the increasingly common practice of trial courts ordering relief that transcends the cases before them .
Whether framed as injunctions of 'nationwide , ' 'universal , ' or 'cosmic ' scope , these orders share the same basic flaw—they direct how the defendant must act toward @ @ @ @ @ @ @ case , '' Gorsuch wrote .
Indeed , since Trump 's inauguration , judges at various levels have issued injunctions to stall or prevent administration policy opposed by liberal groups and Democratic attorneys general .
This is an egregious abuse of judicial review , and Gorsuch called the judges out for it .
`` Equitable remedies , like remedies in general , are meant to redress the injuries sustained by a particular plaintiff in a particular lawsuit .
When a district court orders the government not to enforce a rule against the plaintiffs @ @ @ @ @ @ @ court redresses the injury that gives rise to its jurisdiction in the first place .
But when a court goes further than that , ordering the government to take ( or not take ) some action with respect to those who are strangers to the suit , it is hard to see how the court could still be acting in the judicial role of resolving cases and controversies .
Injunctions like these thus raise serious questions about the scope of courts ’ equitable powers under Article III , '' he explained .
In @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Security v. New York , four different courts issued injunctions : the Northern District of California prevented the policy in California , Oregon , Maine , Pennsylvania , and Washington , D.C. ; the Eastern District of Washington issued a nationwide injunction ; the District of Maryland issued another nationwide injunction ; and the Northern District of Illinois prevented the policy from taking effect in Illinois .
Federal circuit courts struck some of these down .

The Second Circuit declined to stay this particular universal injunction , and so now , after so many trips up and down and around the judicial map , the government brings its well-rehearsed arguments here , '' Gorsuch noted .
`` It has become increasingly apparent that this Court @ @ @ @ @ @ @ these important objections to this increasingly widespread practice .
As the brief and furious history of the regulation before us illustrates , the routine issuance of universal injunctions is patently unworkable , sowing chaos for litigants , the government , courts , and all those affected by these conflicting decisions , '' he wrote .
These nationwide injunctions create confusion and `` tend to force judges into making rushed , high-stakes , low-information decisions . ''
`` The rise of nationwide injunctions may just be a sign of our impatient times .

`` There are currently more than 1,000 active and senior district court judges , sitting across 94 judicial districts , and subject to review in 12 regional courts of appeal .

The rule allows the government to deny green cards to immigrants who receive public assistance and are therefore considered a “public charge.”
In addition to the 5-4 decision allowing the rule to go into effect, Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch issued a concurring opinion rebuking activist judges and their rush to apply “nationwide injunctions” against Trump administration policies.
“Today the Court (rightly) grants a stay, allowing the government to pursue (for now) its policy everywhere save Illinois. But, in light of all that’s come before, it would be delusional to think that one stay today suffices to remedy the problem. The real problem here is the increasingly common practice of trial courts ordering relief that transcends the cases before them. Whether framed as injunctions of ‘nationwide,’ ‘universal,’ or ‘cosmic’ scope, these orders share the same basic flaw—they direct how the defendant must act toward persons who are not parties to the case,” Gorsuch wrote.
Indeed, since Trump’s inauguration, judges at various levels have issued injunctions to stall or prevent administration policy opposed by liberal groups and Democratic attorneys general. This is an egregious abuse of judicial review, and Gorsuch called the judges out for it.
“Equitable remedies, like remedies in general, are meant to redress the injuries sustained by a particular plaintiff in a particular lawsuit.

Injunctions like these thus raise serious questions about the scope of courts’ equitable powers under Article III,” he explained.
In the current case, Department of Homeland Security v. New York, four different courts issued injunctions: the Northern District of California prevented the policy in California, Oregon, Maine, Pennsylvania, and Washington, D.C.; the Eastern District of Washington issued a nationwide injunction; the District of Maryland issued another nationwide injunction; and the Northern District of Illinois prevented the policy from taking effect in Illinois. Federal circuit courts struck some of these down.

“It has become increasingly apparent that this Court must, at some point, confront these important objections to this increasingly widespread practice. As the brief and furious history of the regulation before us illustrates, the routine issuance of universal injunctions is patently unworkable, sowing chaos for litigants, the government, courts, and all those affected by these conflicting decisions,” he wrote.
These nationwide injunctions create confusion and “tend to force judges into making rushed, high-stakes, low-information decisions.”
“The rise of nationwide injunctions may just be a sign of our impatient times. But good judicial decisions are usually tempered by older virtues,” the Supreme Court justice insisted.
“There are currently more than 1,000 active and senior district court judges, sitting across 94 judicial districts, and subject to review in 12 regional courts of appeal. Because plaintiffs generally are not bound by adverse decisions in cases to which they were not a party, there is a nearly boundless opportunity to shop for a friendly forum to secure a win nationwide,” Gorsuch explained.
Worse, it is possible that plaintiffs can win “conflicting nationwide injunctions.”
“If a single successful challenge is enough to stay the challenged rule across the country, the government’s hope of implementing any new policy could face the long odds of a straight sweep, parlaying a 94- to-0 win in the district courts into a 12-to-0 victory in the courts of appeal. A single loss and the policy goes on ice— possibly for good, or just as possibly for some indeterminate period of time until another court jumps in to grant a stay,” he noted. “And all that can repeat, ad infinitum, until either one side gives up or this Court grants certiorari.”
“What in this gamesmanship and chaos can we be proud of?” Gorsuch asked, pointedly.

” Ana @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was directly involved in the deal to sell SH-boxes in the region .
A spokesperson for Speaker Pelosi confirmed that Paul Pelosi Jr. worked for the companies in question and said that the entity was later reconstituted and that Pelosi Jr. was not involved in the reconstituted entity , but provided no specifics .
Viscoil has been re-constituted several times .
Pelosi ’ s spokesperson did not deny that Pelosi Jr. did business in Ukraine .
Neither Shell nor Speaker Pelosi ’ s office have provided any documentation to show the dates or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ well-documented involvement with both Viscoil and NRGLab .
NRGLab still identified Pelosi Jr. on YouTube as an executive on the day it promoted its Ukraine deal .
Viscoil Holdings is currently suspended by the California Secretary of State .
It was registered in 2009 to a manager named David Strawn in Escondido , California .
As of 2010 , it listed two managers : Strawn and an individual named Sergey Sorokin based in Moscow , Russia .

PELOSI JR .
DOES BUSINESS IN UKRAINE WITH ACCUSED FRAUDSTER House Speaker Nancy Pelosi ’ s son Paul Pelosi Jr. visited Ukraine in 2017 to meet with government officials in connection to a business initiative .
Now , has learned from overseas that Pelosi Jr. was in Ukraine representing his business efforts with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ friend and self-identified business associate who has been charged by the Department of Justice for wire fraud .
Asa Saint Clair is under house arrest facing twenty years in prison .
Video evidence proves that Pelosi Jr. was in Ukraine representing his Corporate Governance Initiative ( CGI ) and promoting his endorsement from the World Sports Alliance , which shared leadership staff with Pelosi Jr. ’ s company CGI .
The World Sports Alliance was Asa Saint Clair ’ s front group that is accused of running a criminal cryptocurrency scam known as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mining operations including in the diamond-rich , wartorn Central African Republic .
Paul Pelosi Jr. travelled to Kiev , Ukraine in July 2017 in his capacity as executive director of the Corporate Governance Initiative , a position that he accepted months earlier in February 2017 .
Pelosi Jr. said that he was in Ukraine to discuss a youth soccer partnership with the government , then led by former Ukraine president Petro Poroshenko .
The American Mirror , which flagged Pelosi Jr. ’ s appearance in 2017 , preserved a clip of Pelosi Jr. @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s removal from YouTube .
Pelosi Jr. let slip that he was working in Ukraine with a group called the “ World Sports Alliance.
” “ Today we ’ re here to talk about soccer , ” Paul Pelosi Jr. said in his television interview in Ukraine .
“ We recently got an endorsement from the World Sports Alliance and we ’ ve spoken with the Ukraine government about collaboration for soccer for young people .
Ukraine has a great history in soccer and we hope to share in that tradition going @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a front group run by Paul Pelosi Jr. ’ s good friend Asa Saint Clair , who served as president of the Alliance .
Asa Saint Clair now faces 20 years in prison for allegedly running a fraudulent cryptocurrency scheme through the World Sports Alliance .
Records reveal that Pelosi Jr. and Asa Saint Clair were directly working with one another during the period of Saint Clair ’ s alleged criminality .
Asa Saint Clair announced his endorsement of Paul Pelosi Jr. ’ s Corporate Governance Initiative several months before Pelosi Jr. ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dated December 27 , 2016 announced Saint Clair ’ s endorsement of Pelosi Jr. ’ s company , stating : “ When asked how he became aware of the Corporate Governance Initiative , Mr. St. Clair went on to say “ Paul Pelosi Jr is a longtime associate , both business and personal , and when I saw him taking a stance on something my organization deems to be a corner stone of our prosperity , I reached out to him to learn more… …Nevertheless , without the trust of the public itself @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is what is going on in places our company is trying to affect change like Syria , Venezuela and even India tonight and is asymptomatic in the USA as well .
Without the establishment of proper corporate governance while working with our member nations , our mission to support the World Sports Alliance IGO can not even exists let alone succeed… ” When contacted for comment , businessman and activist Paul Pelosi Jr said , “ It was in watching independent directors within TATA Starbucks resign for fear of retribution and then to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out of companies like Tata Chemicals even with positive performance evaluations and more than 50 % of the independent vote .
Not to mention the removal of Chairman Cyrus Mistry , from all evidence I ’ ve seen , was apparently coordinated by Director Nitin Nohira , Dean of Harvard Business School , who in my opinion , did not ensure a more thoughtful removal process such as proper corporate procedures for the removal of a director or chairman as set by the bylaws , or even attempt to avoid the appearance of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ detailed successor plan in place .
As I said before , it has even been suggested by others that Nitin Nohira ’ s cooperation and support of the instant firing of Mistry may have been influenced by his personal relationship with Ratan Tata and his $ 50 million donation to Harvard Business School in 2010 coinciding with Nohiras ’ appointment .
All that to say , this has caused me to take pause and question ; is this truly proper corporate governance ?
I agree whole heartedly with Mr. St. Clair , in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a recent conversation when he essentially said to me , “ Society exists in its current condition because we as a whole allow it .
We are expected to do our part as citizens ; to follow certain rules and act in a way that is morally and ethically correct .
When there is a breakdown in corporate governance , by the same line of thinking , what is to stop thieves and vandals from targeting this corporation ?
Society as a mob could easily overrun any corporation and eventually put the corporation @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Social Contract we have all currently agreed to be bound by and destroying and stealing the corporation ’ s property , amongst other things.

Last Updated on January 27, 2020
Nancy Pelosi’s son Paul Pelosi Jr. was a board member of the energy company Viscoil Holdings and an executive at its related company NRGLab, which did energy business in Ukraine. House speaker Nancy Pelosi appeared with her son Paul in a promotional video which was released by NRGLab in 2013 on the same day the company promoted its new deal in Ukraine.
Now, newly unearthed records show that Viscoil employed Russians to establish “contacts with government officials and key players in the oil and gas industry,” and to cultivate a “network of prominent contacts including politicians, allowing company’s emergence into high-level political arena.”
Viscoil was registered to a Moscow-based Russian named Sergey Sorokin and David Strawn, a business partner of George W. Bush and Jeb Bush’s cousin John Ellis.
A spokesman for Nancy Pelosi has confirmed that Pelosi Jr. was a board member of Viscoil, and claimed in a vague statement that Viscoil folded and Pelosi Jr. was not involved with the re-constituted business entity. But actually, records reveal that Viscoil operated continuously at least from 2010-2013, and Pelosi Jr. was a well-documented executive of NRGLab, which absorbed Viscoil and its technology. The spokesman said that Viscoil was focused on U.S. business during Pelosi Jr.’s tenure, but records show Viscoil planning international business including in Brazil.
Additionally, Pelosi Jr. traveled to Ukraine in 2017 to meet with Ukraine government officials, supposedly to discuss a “youth soccer” initiative. Pelosi Jr. was representing his company the Corporate Governance Initiative and he touted an endorsement from the World Sports Alliance, an accused diamond-mining scam which was run by his friend and associate Asa Saint Clair who has been charged by the Department of Justice for wire fraud in connection to the World Sports Alliances’ cryptocurrency scam.
LinkedIn records show the extent of Viscoil political influence peddling using Russian employees. The citizen researcher who can be found on Twitter at @_IREDEEMABLES contributed research for this report.
Daria Zelenkova, who went on to receive her M.B.A. from Moscow State Institute of International Relations, worked for Viscoil Holdings from May 2012 to December 2014. During her tenure at Viscoil, Zelenkova “Established contacts with government officials and key players in the oil and gas industry.”
Oksana Kurki joined Viscoil’s New York City office in 2010. Kurki holds a Master’s degree in business and tourism management from Moscow State University of Service. Kurki joined Viscoil directly from her previous job in Moscow. During her career at Viscoil, Kurki “Cultivated network of prominent contacts including politicians, allowing company’s emergence into high-level political arena.”
Paul Pelosi Jr. held top positions with the energy-sector companies Viscoil Group and NRGLab, which did energy business in Ukraine.
Therefore, Pelosi Jr. was a board member of a company — Viscoil — registered to a Russian national based in Moscow.
On March 5, 2013, NRGLab New Technology posted two videos on Youtube. One video opened with a clip of Nancy Pelosi discussing energy-efficient technology, followed by a direct-to-camera statement from her son Paul Pelosi Jr., filmed in Washington, D.C. in 2010.
President Donald Trump has expressed concern about Pelosi Jr.’s business dealings with Viscoil and NRGLab and demanded answers from the Democrat House speaker.

Journalist Patrick Howley, who broke the Pelosi Jr. scandal, appeared on One America News with Chanel Rion to discuss the scoop:
Paul Pelosi Jr.'s Russia Ties, charges of taking his ex's children, Bitcoin fraud, Blood Diamonds, and #UKRAINE. Snopes says no ties to Ukraine. Yet… #Viscoil's own promotionals say otherwise.

“My name’s Paul Pelosi. Of course I’m on the board of Viscoil. And Viscoil is here today to talk about accelerating the future. It’s about using cars in a more efficient manner. It’s about utilizing natural resources, whether it be electricity, or gas, or fossil fuels in a more efficient way. And Viscoil is a part of that solution,” Paul Pelosi Jr. said in the promotional video.
“That’s what Viscoil does. It utilizes technology to maximize the use of natural resources, like oil and other resources,” Pelosi Jr. said.
“Paul Pelosi Jr. is a member of management team of Viscoil Group of Companies and NRGLab. Paul Pelosi Jr. is interested in developing clean energy that can replace gasoline and diesel as transportation fuel sources,” read the description on the video.
Another video posted that same day confirmed that NRGLab was working in Ukraine.
“Walter Afanasieff, Brandon Stone, Mika Newton and other artists are actively involved in promoting the clean technology of Viscoil Group of Companies and NRGLab. For example, Mika Newton helped to secure the rights to build a plant for the production of SH-boxes in Ukraine,” read the description of an NRGLab & Research Council video.
Mika Newton, who brokered NRGLab’s deal in Ukraine, is a Ukrainian-born singer. Newton represented Ukraine in the 2011 Eurovision song contest:
A 2013 interview with NRGLab’s lead technician Zeev Drori reported that NRGLab was funded by environmental businesswoman Ana Shell, who writes about Ukraine energy issues on her blog. In the interview, Drori discussed gas generation techniques in Ukraine.
“Currently, Ana Shell Fund also provide finances and support to groom talented artistes like Mika Newton, a Ukrainian singer who represented Ukraine in the Eurovision song contest in 2011,” reported a 2013 interview with Ana Shell, referring to the singer who brokered the S-H box deal in Ukraine.
“In brief, SH-boxes are environmentally friendly generators which employs the use of poly-crystal technology to producing electricity from environmental heat. With the SH-boxes, electricity could be generated more efficiently and cleanly at a lower cost,” the interview with Ana Shell notes.
NRGLab’s website states that the company is based in Singapore and notes, “The company’s additional projects include a strategic partnership and investment from Viscoil Holdings to recycle waste materials into eco-friendly diesel fuel. NRGLab has obtained an exclusive license for the Viscoil Technology for the South East Asian region for all raw materials.”
Ana Shell has denied that Paul Pelosi Jr. was directly involved in the deal to sell SH-boxes in the region. A spokesperson for Speaker Pelosi confirmed that Paul Pelosi Jr. worked for the companies in question and said that the entity was later reconstituted and that Pelosi Jr. was not involved in the reconstituted entity, but provided no specifics. Viscoil has been re-constituted several times. Pelosi’s spokesperson did not deny that Pelosi Jr. did business in Ukraine.
Neither Shell nor Speaker Pelosi’s office have provided any documentation to show the dates or the extent of Pelosi Jr.’s well-documented involvement with both Viscoil and NRGLab. NRGLab still identified Pelosi Jr. on YouTube as an executive on the day it promoted its Ukraine deal.
Viscoil Holdings is currently suspended by the California Secretary of State. It was registered in 2009 to a manager named David Strawn in Escondido, California. As of 2010, it listed two managers: Strawn and an individual named Sergey Sorokin based in Moscow, Russia.
Strawn is business partners at Sand Hills Partners with John Ellis, cousin of Jeb and George W. Bush, according to SEC documents.
Pelosi Jr.’s ex-companion Karena Feng told National File that Pelosi Jr. conducts foreign business while identifying himself on the phone as “Office of Nancy Pelosi.”
Paul Pelosi Jr. co-founded the company Natural Blue Resources, which the SEC charged with securities fraud in 2014. In 2017, Pelosi Jr., who has done marijuana business in Canada, became the chairman of the board of Freedom Leaf Inc., the Marijuana Legalization Company.
Evidence also shows Pelosi Jr. overseas working in the People’s Republic of China. An email provided to National File shows Pelosi Jr. claiming that he planned to return to China in October 2016, following a previous trip there.

Meanwhile, Pelosi’s other associates in his business dealings are coming under scrutiny.
PELOSI JR. DOES BUSINESS IN UKRAINE WITH ACCUSED FRAUDSTER
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s son Paul Pelosi Jr. visited Ukraine in 2017 to meet with government officials in connection to a business initiative. Now, National File has learned from overseas that Pelosi Jr. was in Ukraine representing his business efforts with Asa Saint Clair, a close Pelosi friend and self-identified business associate who has been charged by the Department of Justice for wire fraud. Asa Saint Clair is under house arrest facing twenty years in prison.
Video evidence proves that Pelosi Jr. was in Ukraine representing his Corporate Governance Initiative (CGI) and promoting his endorsement from the World Sports Alliance, which shared leadership staff with Pelosi Jr.’s company CGI.
The World Sports Alliance was Asa Saint Clair’s front group that is accused of running a criminal cryptocurrency scam known as “IGObit” as well as international mining operations including in the diamond-rich, wartorn Central African Republic.
WORLDWIDE SCAM
Paul Pelosi Jr. travelled to Kiev, Ukraine in July 2017 in his capacity as executive director of the Corporate Governance Initiative, a position that he accepted months earlier in February 2017. Pelosi Jr. said that he was in Ukraine to discuss a youth soccer partnership with the government, then led by former Ukraine president Petro Poroshenko.
The American Mirror, which flagged Pelosi Jr.’s appearance in 2017, preserved a clip of Pelosi Jr. on the Ukrainian station following the video’s removal from YouTube.
https://twitter.com/American_Mirror/status/1177576868733698048?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1177576868733698048&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fnationalfile-d200be.ingress-erytho.ewp.live%2Fbreaking-nancy-pelosis-son-was-exec-at-gas-company-that-did-business-in-ukraine%2F
Pelosi Jr. let slip that he was working in Ukraine with a group called the “World Sports Alliance.”
“Today we’re here to talk about soccer,” Paul Pelosi Jr. said in his television interview in Ukraine. “We recently got an endorsement from the World Sports Alliance and we’ve spoken with the Ukraine government about collaboration for soccer for young people. Ukraine has a great history in soccer and we hope to share in that tradition going forward.”
The World Sports Alliance is a front group run by Paul Pelosi Jr.’s good friend Asa Saint Clair, who served as president of the Alliance. Asa Saint Clair now faces 20 years in prison for allegedly running a fraudulent cryptocurrency scheme through the World Sports Alliance. Records reveal that Pelosi Jr. and Asa Saint Clair were directly working with one another during the period of Saint Clair’s alleged criminality.
Asa Saint Clair announced his endorsement of Paul Pelosi Jr.’s Corporate Governance Initiative several months before Pelosi Jr.’s Ukraine trip. A press release dated December 27, 2016 announced Saint Clair’s endorsement of Pelosi Jr.’s company, stating:
“When asked how he became aware of the Corporate Governance Initiative, Mr. St. Clair went on to say “Paul Pelosi Jr is a longtime associate, both business and personal, and when I saw him taking a stance on something my organization deems to be a corner stone of our prosperity, I reached out to him to learn more…
…Nevertheless, without the trust of the public itself, society will break down. That is what is going on in places our company is trying to affect change like Syria, Venezuela and even India tonight and is asymptomatic in the USA as well. Without the establishment of proper corporate governance while working with our member nations, our mission to support the World Sports Alliance IGO cannot even exists let alone succeed…”
When contacted for comment, businessman and activist Paul Pelosi Jr said, “It was in watching independent directors within TATA Starbucks resign for fear of retribution and then to observe others like Nusli Wadia be forced out of companies like Tata Chemicals even with positive performance evaluations and more than 50% of the independent vote. Not to mention the removal of Chairman Cyrus Mistry, from all evidence I’ve seen, was apparently coordinated by Director Nitin Nohira, Dean of Harvard Business School, who in my opinion, did not ensure a more thoughtful removal process such as proper corporate procedures for the removal of a director or chairman as set by the bylaws, or even attempt to avoid the appearance of a conflict of interest and having a detailed successor plan in place. As I said before, it has even been suggested by others that Nitin Nohira’s cooperation and support of the instant firing of Mistry may have been influenced by his personal relationship with Ratan Tata and his $50 million donation to Harvard Business School in 2010 coinciding with Nohiras’ appointment. All that to say, this has caused me to take pause and question; is this truly proper corporate governance?

Society as a mob could easily overrun any corporation and eventually put the corporation out of business by ignoring the implied Social Contract we have all currently agreed to be bound by and destroying and stealing the corporation’s property, amongst other things.” I am honored Mr. St. Clair has followed the same path I’ve taken in attempting to ensure companies around the world have a sounding board to assist them in making the right decisions in regards to protecting the rights of all stakeholders in their current and future ventures.'”
Corporate press release passage ends
Here is a screenshot of the press release, still preserved on prweb.com:
The links don’t stop there. The citizen researcher who can be followed on Twitter at @defeattheelites provided assistance for this report.
R. Rashaad LV Patrick, the official Global Communications Manager at the World Sports Alliance and member of Asa Saint Clair’s team for the cryptocurrency project IGObit, served as the president of Paul Pelosi Jr.’s Corporate Governance Initiative, according to a deleted “Our Team” page on the CGI website:
Here is Archived evidence from the IGObit “Team” that R. Rashaad LV Patrick was on the IGObit team at the center of the criminal case against Asa Saint Clair.
Now Asa Saint Clair is under house arrest and facing hard time.
The Department of Justice, through the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Southern District of New York, announced charges against Asa Saint Clair on November 6, 2019, declaring:
“Geoffrey S. Berman, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, and Peter C. Fitzhugh, Special Agent-in-Charge of the New York Field Office of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Homeland Security Investigations (“HSI”), today announced charges against ASA SAINT CLAIR for his participation in an investment scheme tied to a purported digital coin offering called IGOBIT. SAINT CLAIR allegedly participated in a scheme to defraud victims into providing loans tied to the launch of IGOBIT by World Sports Alliance, a purported intergovernmental organization focused on promoting international development through sports, and falsely promised investors guaranteed returns and an ownership interest in IGOBIT.
Manhattan U.S. Attorney Geoffrey S. Berman said: “As alleged, Asa Saint Clair used World Sports Alliance, a sham affiliate of the United Nations, as a vehicle to defraud lenders. Saint Clair allegedly defrauded investors in IGOBIT, a digital currency he claimed WSA was developing, but which turned out to be the fraudulent bait with which to lure victim investors. What’s real is the felony charge Saint Clair now faces.”
Special Agent-in-Charge Fitzhugh said: “Saint Claire allegedly touted his company as promoting the values of sports and peace for a better world, yet defrauded all those who invested in his sham company. As alleged, Saint Claire used the money he earned through deceit to fund a lavish lifestyle for him and his family. Through the HSI New York El Dorado Task Force and its strong partnerships, Saint Claire will face time for his actions, and it won’t be in the luxury or comfort he has grown accustomed to.”
According to the allegations in the Indictment unsealed late yesterday in Manhattan federal court[1]and the previously filed Complaint:
From 2017 through September 2019, SAINT CLAIR solicited investors for the launch of IGOBIT through promised investment returns and representations about World Sports Alliance’s development projects around the world. World Sports Alliance did not in fact participate in any international development projects and SAINT CLAIR did not dedicate investor funds to IGOBIT. Instead, SAINT CLAIR diverted those funds to other entities controlled by him and members of his family, as well as to pay his personal expenses, including dinners at Manhattan restaurants, airline tickets, and online shopping.
SAINT CLAIR, 47, of New York, New York, is charged with one count of wire fraud, which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison. The maximum potential sentence in this case is prescribed by Congress and is provided here for informational purposes only, as any sentencing of the defendant will be determined by the judge.
Mr. Berman praised the outstanding work of HSI on this investigation.
This case is being handled by the Office’s Money Laundering and Transnational Criminal Enterprises Unit. Assistant U.S. Attorneys Kiersten A. Fletcher and Tara M. La Morte are in charge of the prosecution.”
DOJ passage ends
But the World Sports Alliance was not merely involved in cryptocurrency — it was principally interested in minerals around the world.
Wikileaks published documents directly implicating the World Sports Alliance in a global mining scheme.
“The World Sports Alliance (WSA): how the UN was indirectly implicated in a mining corruption scheme…These documents show the schemes used by a fake international organisation supported by the UN and numerous states in order to corrupt local elites and steal the natural resources of impoverished states and their populations,” Wikileaks wrote in an introduction to their recent document dump on the World Sports Alliance.
On Steemit, @deliberator listed ten documents dumped by Wikileaks, which pertain to the World Sports Alliance’s (WSA) mining work in the Central African Republic (CAR):
“1 WSA-CAR agreement on biofertilisers (fertilizers)
2 Electricity agreement between CAR State and WSA (energy rights)
3 Framework convention between WSA and the Central African Republic Ministry for Foreign Affairs (mining rights)
4 Framework convention between the World Sports Alliance and the Central African Republic (mining)
5 WSA-CAR agreement on infrastructure constructions (framework for corporations to mine)
6 CAR President permit for mining exploration (mining)
7 Ministerial note on the WSA-CAR agreements
8 WSA intermediation agreement (mining rights)
9 2013 CAR Presidential Permit given to WSA 1 (mining rights)
10 2013 CAR Presidential Permit given to WSA 2 (and again mining rights)”
According to @deliberator: “From gold to diamonds and everything in between, this organisation has its sticky little fingers in all the pies, also they have nothing to do with sports, sure maybe they put the odd bit of grass down on the floor, and maybe some goal posts and call it a football pitch, they say they do anyway, I found zero evidence of that though, but I found plenty of evidence/factual in paper form showing they are corrupt, deceitful and damaging Africa and other places, by leaving behind their poisons, their toxins, their radiation and polluted water, with not a care in the world via bribing other government officials.”
The Today Show reported in 2019 on the “mineral-rich” Central African Republic’s civil war, which has led to more than a million children facing risk of starvation.
So, now we know what Pelosi Jr. was representing when he was name-dropping the “World Sports Alliance” during his trip to meet with government officials in Ukraine in 2017.

Fake Christian Preachy Pete Buttplug Tells Pro-Life Democrat Woman: Pro-Lifers ‘Don’t Belong’ in the Democrat Party — With a Straight Face Calls Vicious Slaughter of Innocent Babies ‘Medical Care’

Indiana ’ s Mayor Pete Buttigieg told a pro-life Democrat that he agreed with the party platform that left no room for her .
Buttigieg made the comments during a Sunday evening town hall with Fox ’ s Chris Wallace , in response to a question about allowing for more inclusive language in the party ’ s official platform .
( RELATED : Bloomberg Passes Buttigieg In RCP Betting Odds , Could Blow Past Warren Next ) A woman introduced as Kristen Day from Oakton , Virginia , took the microphone and said , “ I ’ m a proud @ @ @ @ @ @ @ support of pro-life Democratic voters ?
There are 21 million of us .
And if so , would you support more moderate platform language to insure the party of diversity and inclusion does include everybody ?
” Buttigieg responded by saying that he respected her point of view and hoped to earn her vote , but that he had to present his own views honestly .
“ I ’ m not going to try to earn your vote by tricking you , ” he said .
“ I am pro-choice .
I believe @ @ @ @ @ @ @ make that decision.
” “ If we can ’ t agree on where to draw the line , the next best thing we can do is agree on who should draw the line , ” Buttigieg continued .
“ In my view it ’ s the woman faced with that decision in her own life.
” Wallace jumped in then to note that President Donald Trump had , just days earlier , become the first sitting president to attend and speak at the March for Life .
“ He didn ’ t answer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” Day protested .
“ The Democratic platform contains language that says we don ’ t belong .
We have no part in the party because it says abortion should be legal up to months and the government should pay for it .
And it doesn ’ t say people with diversity of views should be included in the party.
” Day went on to suggest that a party which prided itself on diversity and being a “ big tent ” party should be willing to make allowances to include everyone .
“ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that in the Democratic platform saying we are diverse and inclusive and we want everybody ?
” she asked .
“ I support the position of my party that this kind of medical care needs to be available to everyone , ” Buttigieg responded .
Wallace rephrased the question and asked again : “ What do you say to Democrats who are pro-life ?
What do you say to them on an issue of such deep conscience ?
That they should overlook this issue and look at the whole sum of views or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I never encountered a politician or another person that I agreed with 100 % of the time , ” Buttigieg replied .
“ Even on very important things .
At the end of the day , this is what I believe .
People I care about and respect view it differently .
But this is something I believe is so important .
Especially because I ’ m never going have to make that decision.
” Fox News contributor Katie Pavlich responded immediately , saying , “ Pete Buttigieg just told a pro-life , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ today ’ s Democrat Party .
All she asked for was a recognition there is diversity of thought on the issue and that it be put in the platform language .
He said no and told her to deal with it .

A woman introduced as Kristen Day from Oakton, Virginia, took the microphone and said, “I’m a proud pro-life Democrat. Do you want the support of pro-life Democratic voters? There are 21 million of us. And if so, would you support more moderate platform language to insure the party of diversity and inclusion does include everybody?”
Buttigieg responded by saying that he respected her point of view and hoped to earn her vote, but that he had to present his own views honestly. “I’m not going to try to earn your vote by tricking you,” he said. “I am pro-choice. I believe a woman ought to be able to make that decision.”

Wallace jumped in then to note that President Donald Trump had, just days earlier, become the first sitting president to attend and speak at the March for Life.
“He didn’t answer the second part of my question,” Day protested. “The Democratic platform contains language that says we don’t belong. We have no part in the party because it says abortion should be legal up to months and the government should pay for it. And it doesn’t say people with diversity of views should be included in the party.”
Day went on to suggest that a party which prided itself on diversity and being a “big tent” party should be willing to make allowances to include everyone. “Would you be open on language like that in the Democratic platform saying we are diverse and inclusive and we want everybody?” she asked.
“I support the position of my party that this kind of medical care needs to be available to everyone,” Buttigieg responded.
Wallace rephrased the question and asked again: “What do you say to Democrats who are pro-life? What do you say to them on an issue of such deep conscience? That they should overlook this issue and look at the whole sum of views or go find another party?”
“I never encountered a politician or another person that I agreed with 100% of the time,” Buttigieg replied. “Even on very important things. At the end of the day, this is what I believe. People I care about and respect view it differently. But this is something I believe is so important. Especially because I’m never going have to make that decision.”

thelibertydaily--2020-01-28--Democrat-Ruled Seattle-Area Highway Workers Struggle to Keep Ahead of Piles of Trash

`` As fast as we clean it up and we have it looking good , it comes back to us @ @ @ @ @ '' said McBride , who detailed how cleanup work is draining money meant for things @ @ @ @ @ .

SEATTLE — There used to be an idea called highway beautification.
The big concern was litter tossed from cars.
These days, around Seattle, we're a long way from that.
"Certainly in the last five or six years it's exploded," said Jim McBride, a maintenance supervisor with the Washington State Department of Transportation.
On a recent day, one of his crews cleared garbage from beneath a homeless camp beside the on-ramp to I-90 from Rainier Avenue.
"It's thankless work for them and everything they deal with," said Eddie O'Hara who lives in a tent in another location.
He looked over the layers upon layers of trash.
"Yeah you're going to have that," O'Hara said. "Maybe thirty percent of the people who come through here are responsible for that. A lot of people frown on it, it's not a good thing."
On the day KIRO 7 visited, state crews hauled away six tons of trash.
Incredibly, state officials say workers cleaned up the same place seven weeks earlier.
"As fast as we clean it up and we have it looking good, it comes back to us in piles and piles," said McBride, who detailed how cleanup work is draining money meant for things like fixing potholes and guardrails.
McBride mentioned the two-year statewide budget.
"About three million got diverted to doing homeless cleanup," he said.
Highway crews haul off trash and also work with the city to close active camps in sweeps where people are offered services.
In roughly the last half of 2019, the state did 101 camp cleanups, 91 of them in Seattle.
"The problem is not getting any better. I don't think anybody would argue that point and we're spending a lot more time trying to be proactive," McBride.
There's also a push to clean up graffiti.
The state is getting 125 reports every month.
"It's gotten worse, it's gotten worse," said Tim Ditch, the WSDOT bridge maintenance supervisor who oversees the graffiti team.
Beyond the crews who clean up tags and trash, more workers are affected as they try to do other roadside jobs.
It's not uncommon to see used needles in the right-of-way in places workers need to access for maintenance.
In complaints filed with the state last year, WSDOT workers reported encountering hazardous conditions and volatile people.
The state just spent $300,000 on fences at the I-90 and I-5 interchange, hoping to keep people out.
McBride, who works at WSDOT, is under no illusions it will work.
"They get broke into pretty quickly depending how visible they are," he said.
McBride says highway workers used to feel invested in keeping roadsides clean.
"It was really in years past a pride thing, I take better care of my roadway than others in the state," he said.
Now, all they can do is try to keep ahead of the trash.
“I never dreamed we would be hauling away tons and tons of trash from people just dumping it on the roadway.”
