Deep State Darling Ellen Nakashima: WaPo Writer Behind This Week’s Trump-Grenell Fake News Hit Piece Was Also First to Report Russia Hacked the DNC in 2016

Ellen Nakashima is the Washington Post writer behind this week ’ s fake news report that President Trump was responsible for the coronavirus threat that was quickly debunked by DNI Richard Grenell .
But this wasn ’ t the first piece of Deep State garbage that she posted in her career as a liberal journalist .
We reported earlier — The Washington Post reported on Monday night that President Trump ’ s intelligence briefing book repeatedly cited the virus threat .
In other words , the pandemic is Trump ’ s fault because of negligence !
What BS .
TRENDING @ @ @ @ @ @ @ - They Framed Flynn !
`` What is Our Goal ?
Truth/Admission or to Get Him to Lie , So We Can Prosecute or Get Him Fired ? ''
According to Grenell the White House told the WaPo the story was not true before it was published .
But the WaPo buried their comments .
But this is not the first piece of Deep State garbage started by Nakashima .
In June 2016 , Nakashima reported that the Russians hacked the DNC database and stole Trump opposition research : Nakashima was one of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , to claim Russian hacking of the DNC .
The good Deep State pundit reported that the firm Crowdstrike had uncovered this information .
Nakashima broadcast the Crowdstrike name in her post as those who uncovered the Russian hacking : “ It ’ s the job of every foreign intelligence service to collect intelligence against their adversaries , ” said Shawn Henry , president of CrowdStrike , the cyber firm called in to handle the DNC breach and a former head of the FBI ’ s cyber division .
He noted that it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to protect itself from a skilled and determined state such as Russia .
Unfortunately for Nakashima , the Crowdstrike claim in her June 2016 reporting has been all but debunked .
Yaacov Apelbaum dissected the Crowdstrike claim and offered ample evidence of its bogus nature ( See Who Done It ? )
We ’ ve reported how NSA Whistleblower Bill Binney also determined that the DNC emails weren ’ t hacked : Nakashima has a series of posts where she backs Deep State claims : Ellen Nakashima at the Washington Post is a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ means everything she writes is suspect and should be taken with a grain of salt until proven legitimate .

Nakashima was one of the first, if not the first, to claim Russian hacking of the DNC. The good Deep State pundit reported that the firm Crowdstrike had uncovered this information.
Nakashima reported:
Russian government hackers penetrated the computer network of the Democratic National Committee and gained access to the entire database of opposition research on GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump, according to committee officials and security experts who responded to the breach.
Nakashima broadcast the Crowdstrike name in her post as those who uncovered the Russian hacking:
“It’s the job of every foreign intelligence service to collect intelligence against their adversaries,” said Shawn Henry, president of CrowdStrike, the cyber firm called in to handle the DNC breach and a former head of the FBI’s cyber division. He noted that it is extremely difficult for a civilian organization to protect itself from a skilled and determined state such as Russia.
Unfortunately for Nakashima, the Crowdstrike claim in her June 2016 reporting has been all but debunked. Yaacov Apelbaum dissected the Crowdstrike claim and offered ample evidence of its bogus nature (See Who Done It?)
We’ve reported how NSA Whistleblower Bill Binney also determined that the DNC emails weren’t hacked:

Nakashima has a series of posts where she backs Deep State claims:
Russian spies hacked the Olympics and tried to make it look like North Korea did it, U.S. officials say https://t.co/OEujtXWJyP — Ellen Nakashima (@nakashimae) February 25, 2018
Nakashima was a proud reporter for Crowdstrike information:
CrowdStrike finds strong proof that Russian military spy agency hacked DNC; GRU also hacked Ukrainian army https://t.co/0CcCsdgJIH — Ellen Nakashima (@nakashimae) December 22, 2016
Ellen Nakashima at the Washington Post is a faithful servant for the Deep State which means everything she writes is suspect and should be taken with a grain of salt until proven legitimate.

Covington notes that “In 2014, Time magazine named Mr. Holder to its list of 100 Most Influential People, noting that he had “worked tirelessly to ensure equal justice.” But this tells only a small part of Holder’s story as AG.

Enter General Mike Flynn
General Michael Flynn obtained attorneys from Covington to represent him in the filing of a FARA form in December of 2016, shortly after the 2016 election. A few months later, General Flynn’s life was turned upside down and he hired Covington to represent him in charges being leveled by the Mueller gang. Eventually, the Covington lawyers working for the General coerced him to sign a guilty plea on charges he did not believe he was guilty of performing.
After millions in legal fees, and untold negative stories in the MSM, General Flynn obtained new lawyers and over the weekend General Mike Flynn broke his silence after the government finally released Brady documents showing he committed no crimes.
In a tweet, the General released his response to the court where he declared that he no longer agreed to a guilty plea in his case:
In General Flynn’s tweet, he shared a number of devastating points where it becomes clear that his attorneys at Covington, in spite of taking millions in legal fees, were not working in the General’s best interest.
For example, in one of the first meetings with Covington, Flynn’s lawyers asked if he had any dirt on President Trump.

Covington Conflicts
There have been numerous reports in the news of late, since General Flynn obtained former US Attorney Sidney Powell to represent him, that his Covington lawyers had numerous conflicts of interest in his case.
Not only this, but Sidney Powell tweeted that the Mueller gang had a secret deal with Flynn’s Covington attorneys that was not shared with General Flynn:
In addition to the numerous conflicts, we reported in January 2020 that the DOJ’s Trisha Anderson went to work for Covington while they represented General Flynn. To this day we have no evidence that Covington notified General Flynn about hiring one of the individuals at the DOJ involved in the Russia collusion sham.
Covington had numerous conflicts of interest related to their biggest case ever, representing General Michael Flynn in his unjust indictment by the Mueller gang.
His attorneys withheld evidence from their client. They asked for dirt on President Trump. They hired individuals that were involved in the criminal Spygate scandal.
Yesterday Eric Holder’s firm Covington and Burling handed over thousands of more documents to General Flynn:
Covington and Burling LLP, the former defense team for former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn, turned over thousands of more pages of documents to Flynn’s new defense team that should have been submitted more than a year ago. Last week, another batch of documents withheld by former Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s team on Flynn was turned over to his defense that allegedly reveals that the retired three-star general did not commit any crimes, as suggested by Department of Justice prosecutors.
There is no way that a partner at Covington like Eric Holder was not aware of the firm representing General Flynn in the biggest case in the US.
This is so corrupt, it makes you wonder if former corrupt Obama AG Holder was involved.


thegatewaypundit--2020-04-29--EXCLUSIVE TO GATEWAY PUNDIT: A Visit to China’s Uyghur Concentration Camps (With Photos)

In 2014 , China suffered a series of terrorist attacks , including the March knife attack in Kunming , which killed 31 and injured 140 , and the April knife attack and bombing that killed three and injured 79 in the city of Ürümqi , while President Xi Jinping was visiting .
Xi subsequently announced the “ Strike Hard Campaign against Violent Terrorism ” which involves the internment of nearly one million Uyghurs ( or Uighurs ) in re-education camps , Western media report .
Russian journalist Edvard Chesnokov was one of the first foreigners to visit the so-called Concentration @ @ @ @ @ @ @ exclusive report to The Gateway Pundit .
Classrooms full of soft , serene music .
Young women and men sit at their desks .
Mandarin banners read : ‘ The more books you read , the more powerful you are ’ .
Portraits of Albert Einstein and Asian scientists I do not recognize on the walls .
Not a single smartphone in the students ’ hands – it looks like a 20th Century school from the old movies .
TRENDING : BREAKING : Handwritten FBI Notes Unsealed - They Framed Flynn !
`` @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to Get Him to Lie , So We Can Prosecute or Get Him Fired ? ''
We are visiting the Moyu County Vocational Center , as it is called in our travel guides .
Our guides , as well as the entire journey , are provided by the Chinese government .
This means we are only able to visit places and speak to people they want .
Our interpreters are also provided by the government .
When I leave my hotel room , I am immediately confronted with a female chaperone who seems @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , without eating or sleeping , but instead providing me three times a day with a meal fit for a king , or a Chinese Emperor .
Moyu County is one of approx .
99 counties of the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region ( XUAR ) .
Located West of Mongolia and North of Tibet , Xinjiang means “ New Frontier ” and has been part of China since the Qing Dynasty 1750 .
It is the only region of China where Muslims have been the majority for ages in this mostly atheist Communist @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 60 % of the 23,600,000 XUAR population are ethnic minorities : Uyghur , Kazakh , Kyrgyz , Hui .
And it is the only place in the world where the worst practice of 20th Century totalitarianism rears its head again : Concentration Camps .
Western media are full of reports of “ 1 million Uyghurs detained in Chinese Concentration Camps .
But what ’ s the real story ?
The witnesses are questionable , satellite photos are low-res , and Washington likes to trot out the Concentration Camp argument in each new wave @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wanted to see for myself .
Chinese officials do not deny the Camps ’ existence — they just call them Vocational Training Centers .
In July 2019 , Chinese embassy press attachés invited journalists from 23 countries ( including dozen of Muslim countries ) on an all-expenses-paid junket to tour the camps and form their own opinion .
In August of 2019 , I visited Xinjiang with other journalists .
“ I was invited to attend this camp after sharing ISIS propaganda !
” ‘ My name is Muhammad Ali , 22 , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ used to hate drinking alcohol , since it violated Sharia Law , and shared my views with my neighbors and friends .
Someone reported me to the authorities , and so I was “ invited ” to appear before the Cadre Committee of the local government , where I was informed of the charges .
I then agreed to apply to this school .
I have been here for 8 months now , learning to be a qualified painter .
My girlfriend is waiting for me at home.
’ This is a typical @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Most of the students ( prisoners ?
inmates ? )
are young and male .
No traditional Muslim caps , no smartphones , no Qurans or any other religious books on the bookshelves .
‘ We believe in science now ’ , the guys with the Muslim-sounding names tell me .
There are no bars on the windows .
The school is located in an urban area , and , according to our handlers , students are free to leave the Camp on weekends to visit their families .
Later , looking through @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we visited the Moyu Camp on a weekend : Saturday , July 20 , 2019 .
But all the classrooms were full .
Most of the classrooms of this five-storey building are equipped with training equipment and machines : Agricultural class with greenhouse plants .
Cooking class in a giant kitchen that could feed a battalion .
Car shop .
Electrical shop .
Barbershop .
Art class .
Inmates ’ paintings sell for 300 Yuans ( $ 42.50 ) each .
‘ Here , the students can learn a high-paying trade , ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from this school , they can get a prestigious job , such as masseur , hotel cleaning staff , or auto mechanic — instead of succumbing to extremism.
’ ‘ Our government supports individual and religious freedom , including traditional Islam , ’ remarks our main handler Li Jie , XUAR State Information Office chief .
‘ But freedom is impossible without limits .
Say , you ’ re sleeping in a hotel at midnight , and somebody starts playing music in the hall .
What do you do ?
Limit freedom to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ freedom restricted for 8-12 months , for the duration of the ‘ de-radicalization course ’ .
Their stories are all similar : ‘ I met a stranger on social media who started to discuss various aspects of Islam with me .
He sent me extremist videos with ISIS propaganda .
Then I was “ invited ” to appear before the Cadre Committee , where I voluntarily signed up to attend this school.
’ Thanks to the Great Chinese Firewall , user activity on Chinese messengers and social networks is closely surveilled by the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ scanner , this security scan compares your smartphone media files ( even in peer-to-peer chats ) with a library of tens of thousands of examples of inappropriate content .
This is how the future inmates of Uyghur Camps are identified .
Rural countryside , 6 miles outside of Hotan — one of the cities of XUAR with the largest Uyghur populations .
We meet the family who lives here : A husband and wife cradling a 4-year-old child in their arms — an ideal family from a TV commercial .
May name is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ m 25 years old .
A year and a half ago , I started communicating with a stranger on ( Chinese messenger ) WeChat , who sent me extremist videos .
I began to pray multiple times a day , prohibited my wife from leaving the house , and disrespected my parents .
But thanks to the government ’ s patience , I was given the opportunity to see the error of my ways , and invited to attend the Training Center , where I ’ ve been for 8 months now… @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are Central Asians .
They try to speak with the young farmer in Uzbek or Kazakh ( which are similar to the Uyghur language ) .
Abdulali refuses , only interacting with us through the Chinese interpreter , obviously unwilling to try “ the government ’ s patience.
” ‘ After graduating from the Training Center , I heard a new village was being built in Hotan county , where my agricultural skills would be in demand .
To buy this house , the Government provided me 100,000 Yuan , and my parents @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Our monthly family income is 4,000 Yuan ( $ 560 ) , my wife works at a nearby textile factory .
I ’ m still a Muslim , but not an Islamist.
’ We don ’ t see any cell phones in the deradicalized farmer ’ s house .
No computer , no personal belongings , a few children ’ s toys and a family photo on the wall .
There ’ s a TV set , a talk-show is on .
‘ They are working hard all day and don ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ explains .
Bars on the window : For Safety Our journey is reaching its culmination .
25 miles of desert road , a lone group of three buildings surrounded by walls and sandy plains : Wensu County Vocational Training Center in the Aksu Prefecture , near Taklamakan Desert .
This ‘ training center ’ is quite different from the others we visited .
According to my investigation , there are two types of XUAR Camps .
The lite version is usually located in a city ( like the Moyu Camp described above ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are more open to learning ( let ’ s not get into whether all of them are really extremists ) .
And then there ’ s the maximum-security version : Prison-like buildings far from cities for those whose extremist inclinations the Communist Party judges to be truly dangerous .
These are the ones with bars on the windows .
Our delegation is led inside , into a hall with dozen of boys and girls .
Without no introduction , they began ethnic dancing to Uyghur music .
After a few minutes , they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ approach the female journalists , girls the men .
An Uyghur girl of about 18-20 years grabs my hand and wants to dance with me .
I ’ m shocked by the awkward display .
I see her smudged makeup and the fear in her eyes behind the forced smile .
This is how our hosts want to demonstrate how happy the inmates are .
“ Before I came to this school , I was a Muslim .
But now I ’ m not , ” the girl tells me .
I try @ @ @ @ @ @ @ our interpreter has disappeared .
Feeling quite the James Bond , I covertly geotag this place on my cell phone .
We are accompanied by Rebigul Ramtulla , the female director of Wensu Camp .
She ’ s an Uyghur .
“ The capacity of our institution is 500 inmates .
We recently had a class graduate , so right now , the number is less : 214 boys and 103 girls , ” Rebigul says .
“ Why don ’ t they have cellphones ?
” I ask .
“ They can @ @ @ @ @ @ @ she says .
“ And why do you have bars on the windows ?
” “ For safety reasons , ” Rebigul says .
“ The pupils wash the windows here , and the bars prevent them from falling.
” We tour the dorm rooms of the building : 10 perfectly-made beds in each , a few personal belongings , a shower in the corner .
Next , the classroom : The level of education here in Wensu is more elementary than in the low-security camps like Moyu .
Many inhabitants of China @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ t speak Mandarin well , so there ’ s a lot of Chinese language classes , plus Chinese laws and physical education , plus very simple tasks like home econonmics , cooking , gardening and planting .
After the De-Radicalization Course , the inmates have to pass a De-Radicalization Test , a combination of written and oral exams with supervisors , in order to determine whether he or she has recovered from what Beijing calls ‘ extremism.
’ This means , whether to release an inmate or not is purely the call @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they assure me , ‘ graduation rates ’ are high and few students stay more than a year unless they voluntarily opt to obtain more high-level qualifications at a Vocational Center like Moyu .
I ask Directress Rebigul the key question , which no one has answered so far : ‘ How many of these camps are there ?
’ ‘ I don ’ t know , I only know about my camp ’ , she says .
Later I will recall the Mayor of Moyu County , who accompanied us during the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Moyu County has only one such installation .
XUAR has approximately 99 counties .
So if each county has a similar 500-person capacity camp , the overall capacity might be about 50,000 inmates .
The average duration of ‘ De-Radicalization ’ is 8-12 months .
Therefore , roughly 200,000-250,000 inmates may have passed through the Camps since the werey established in 2015 .
The Xinjang Terrorist Attack and Violent Crimes Exhibition occupies the area of two football fields .
It is a memorial museum .
Pyramids of rioters ’ guns .
Carpets of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ — from crossbows to butcher ’ s knives .
Actual equipment seized from terrorists , enough to supply an Army division .
Plaques on the wall feature descriptions of each attack — with photos and subtitles : In 2009 , Mehsun Abdulkerim and Nurmamat Oblikasim , among others , started to spread religious extremism by illegally teaching the Quran at unregistered religious gatherings , forming a 21-member terrorist gang .
On October 14 , 2010 , they beheaded Niyaz Abdulrexit , a teacher at the Tagarqi Middle School , and his wife , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Abdulrexit taught children Darwin ’ s Evolution Theory .
Documentary photos on each display showing the victims of Islamist stabbings , shootings , car attacks and explosions .
The photos are so graphic they are restricted for children and pregnant women .
After visiting this museum , I have to admit there may be some justification for the camps .
Once I get home , I pull up the geotag I made of Wensu Camp on my phone .
( In China , a lot of foreign internet services , such as the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I find the main building and two minor edifices beside it .
The satellite photo is dated 2018 .
But where are the trees in the yard ?
Where is the sports field to the right ?
Where is the outdoor area to the left ?
Where are the main gates and all other details I remember ?
In the 2018 satellite photo , Wensu Camp looks abandoned or unfinished .
The Chinese brochure the handlers gave me claims : Wensu Skill Center was founded April 2017 .
Was our whole junket a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ know .
According to the CCP , since the Camps were established in 2015 , there have been no new terrorist attacks in XUAR .

Moyu Camp China
Classrooms full of soft, serene music. Young women and men sit at their desks. Mandarin banners read: ‘The more books you read, the more powerful you are’. Portraits of Albert Einstein and Asian scientists I do not recognize on the walls. Not a single smartphone in the students’ hands – it looks like a 20th Century school from the old movies.
We are visiting the Moyu County Vocational Center, as it is called in our travel guides. Our guides, as well as the entire journey, are provided by the Chinese government. This means we are only able to visit places and speak to people they want. Our interpreters are also provided by the government. When I leave my hotel room, I am immediately confronted with a female chaperone who seems to be sitting outside my door 24/7, without eating or sleeping, but instead providing me three times a day with a meal fit for a king, or a Chinese Emperor.
Moyu County is one of approx. 99 counties of the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XUAR). Located West of Mongolia and North of Tibet, Xinjiang means “New Frontier” and has been part of China since the Qing Dynasty 1750. It is the only region of China where Muslims have been the majority for ages in this mostly atheist Communist country. Even now, more than 60% of the 23,600,000 XUAR population are ethnic minorities: Uyghur, Kazakh, Kyrgyz, Hui.
And it is the only place in the world where the worst practice of 20th Century totalitarianism rears its head again: Concentration Camps.
Western media are full of reports of “1 million Uyghurs detained in Chinese Concentration Camps. But what’s the real story? The witnesses are questionable, satellite photos are low-res, and Washington likes to trot out the Concentration Camp argument in each new wave of Chinese-American trade wars. So I wanted to see for myself.
Chinese officials do not deny the Camps’ existence — they just call them Vocational Training Centers. In July 2019, Chinese embassy press attachés invited journalists from 23 countries (including dozen of Muslim countries) on an all-expenses-paid junket to tour the camps and form their own opinion. In July of 2019, I visited Xinjiang with other journalists.
“I was invited to attend this camp after sharing ISIS propaganda!”
‘My name is Muhammad Ali, 22, I’m a peasant. I used to hate drinking alcohol, since it violated Sharia Law, and shared my views with my neighbors and friends. Someone reported me to the authorities, and so I was “invited” to appear before the Cadre Committee of the local government, where I was informed of the charges. I then agreed to apply to this school. I have been here for 8 months now, learning to be a qualified painter. My girlfriend is waiting for me at home.’
This is a typical Moyu Camp resident’s story. Most of the students (prisoners? inmates?) are young and male. No traditional Muslim caps, no smartphones, no Qurans or any other religious books on the bookshelves. ‘We believe in science now’, the guys with the Muslim-sounding names tell me.
There are no bars on the windows. The school is located in an urban area, and, according to our handlers, students are free to leave the Camp on weekends to visit their families.
Later, looking through my notes, I will remark that we visited the Moyu Camp on a weekend: Saturday, July 20, 2019. But all the classrooms were full.
Aerial view of Wensu Concentration Camp in Western China
Most of the classrooms of this five-storey building are equipped with training equipment and machines: Agricultural class with greenhouse plants. Cooking class in a giant kitchen that could feed a battalion. Car shop. Electrical shop. Barbershop. Art class. Inmates’ paintings sell for 300 Yuans ($42.50) each.
‘Here, the students can learn a high-paying trade,’ the supervisors explain. ‘After graduating from this school, they can get a prestigious job, such as masseur, hotel cleaning staff, or auto mechanic — instead of succumbing to extremism.’
‘Our government supports individual and religious freedom, including traditional Islam,’ remarks our main handler Li Jie, XUAR State Information Office chief. ‘But freedom is impossible without limits. Say, you’re sleeping in a hotel at midnight, and somebody starts playing music in the hall. What do you do? Limit freedom to maintain order.’
Camp inmates have their freedom restricted for 8-12 months, for the duration of the ‘de-radicalization course’. Their stories are all similar:
‘I met a stranger on social media who started to discuss various aspects of Islam with me. He sent me extremist videos with ISIS propaganda. Then I was “invited” to appear before the Cadre Committee, where I voluntarily signed up to attend this school.’
Thanks to the Great Chinese Firewall, user activity on Chinese messengers and social networks is closely surveilled by the intelligence services. Like an anti-extremist antivirus scanner, this security scan compares your smartphone media files (even in peer-to-peer chats) with a library of tens of thousands of examples of inappropriate content. This is how the future inmates of Uyghur Camps are identified.
The happy deradicalized farmer
Rural countryside, 6 miles outside of Hotan — one of the cities of XUAR with the largest Uyghur populations. We meet the family who lives here: A husband and wife cradling a 4-year-old child in their arms — an ideal family from a TV commercial.
May name is Abdualali, son of Abdykadyr, I’m 25 years old. A year and a half ago, I started communicating with a stranger on (Chinese messenger) WeChat, who sent me extremist videos. I began to pray multiple times a day, prohibited my wife from leaving the house, and disrespected my parents. But thanks to the government’s patience, I was given the opportunity to see the error of my ways, and invited to attend the Training Center, where I’ve been for 8 months now…’
Some of our group of journalists are Central Asians. They try to speak with the young farmer in Uzbek or Kazakh (which are similar to the Uyghur language). Abdulali refuses, only interacting with us through the Chinese interpreter, obviously unwilling to try “the government’s patience.”
‘After graduating from the Training Center, I heard a new village was being built in Hotan county, where my agricultural skills would be in demand. To buy this house, the Government provided me 100,000 Yuan, and my parents gave me the rest, 50,000 Yuan. Our monthly family income is 4,000 Yuan ($560), my wife works at a nearby textile factory. I’m still a Muslim, but not an Islamist.’
We don’t see any cell phones in the de-radicalized farmer’s house. No computer, no personal belongings, a few children’s toys and a family photo on the wall. There’s a TV set, a talk-show is on. ‘They are working hard all day and don’t need a computer, our handler explains.
Bars on the window: For Safety
Our journey is reaching its culmination. 25 miles of desert road, a lone group of three buildings surrounded by walls and sandy plains: Wensu County Vocational Training Center in the Aksu Prefecture, near Taklamakan Desert. This ‘training center’ is quite different from the others we visited.
According to my investigation, there are two types of XUAR Camps. The lite version is usually located in a city (like the Moyu Camp described above) — for the less extremist inmates who are more open to learning (let’s not get into whether all of them are really extremists).
And then there’s the maximum-security version: Prison-like buildings far from cities for those whose extremist inclinations the Communist Party judges to be truly dangerous.
These are the ones with bars on the windows.
Our delegation is led inside, into a hall with dozen of boys and girls. Without no introduction, they began ethnic dancing to Uyghur music. After a few minutes, they invite us to dance: Young men approach the female journalists, girls the men.
An Uyghur girl of about 18-20 years grabs my hand and wants to dance with me. I’m shocked by the awkward display. I see her smudged makeup and the fear in her eyes behind the forced smile.
This is how our hosts want to demonstrate how happy the inmates are.
“Before I came to this school, I was a Muslim. But now I’m not,” the girl tells me. I try to find out her name, but our interpreter has disappeared. Feeling quite the James Bond, I covertly geotag this place on my cell phone.
We are accompanied by Rebigul Ramtulla, the female director of Wensu Camp. She’s an Uyghur.
“The capacity of our institution is 500 inmates. We recently had a class graduate, so right now, the number is less: 214 boys and 103 girls,” Rebigul says.
“Why don’t they have cellphones?” I ask.
“They can distract from the educational process,” she says.
“And why do you have bars on the windows?”
“For safety reasons,” Rebigul says. “The pupils wash the windows here, and the bars prevent them from falling.”
Firearms confiscated in Western China
We tour the dorm rooms of the building: 10 perfectly-made beds in each, a few personal belongings, a shower in the corner.
Next, the classroom: The level of education here in Wensu is more elementary than in the low-security camps like Moyu. Many inhabitants of China”s ‘Wild West’ don’t speak Mandarin well, so there’s a lot of Chinese language classes, plus Chinese laws and physical education, plus very simple tasks like home econonmics, cooking, gardening and planting.
After the De-Radicalization Course, the inmates have to pass a De-Radicalization Test, a combination of written and oral exams with supervisors, in order to determine whether he or she has recovered from what Beijing calls ‘extremism.’ This means, whether to release an inmate or not is purely the call of their supervisors — but, as they assure me, ‘graduation rates’ are high and few students stay more than a year unless they voluntarily opt to obtain more high-level qualifications at a Vocational Center like Moyu.
I ask Directress Rebigul the key question, which no one has answered so far: ‘How many of these camps are there?’
‘I don’t know, I only know about my camp’, she says.
Later I will recall the Mayor of Moyu County, who accompanied us during the Moyu Camp visit, remarked: ‘Moyu County has only one such installation. XUAR has approximately 99 counties. So if each county has a similar 500-person capacity camp, the overall capacity might be about 50,000 inmates. The average duration of ‘De-Radicalization’ is 8-12 months. Therefore, roughly 200,000-250,000 inmates may have passed through the Camps since the werey established in 2015.
The Terror Museum
The Xinjang Terrorist Attack and Violent Crimes Exhibition occupies the area of two football fields. It is a memorial museum. Pyramids of rioters’ guns. Carpets of hand-made grenades. Dozens of edged weapons — from crossbows to butcher’s knives. Actual equipment seized from terrorists, enough to supply an Army division.
Plaques on the wall feature descriptions of each attack — with photos and subtitles:
In 2009, Mehsun Abdulkerim and Nurmamat Oblikasim, among others, started to spread religious extremism by illegally teaching the Quran at unregistered religious gatherings, forming a 21-member terrorist gang. On October 14, 2010, they beheaded Niyaz Abdulrexit, a teacher at the Tagarqi Middle School, and his wife, Nurela Abel in Shule County, because Abdulrexit taught children Darwin’s Evolution Theory.
Documentary photos on each display showing the victims of Islamist stabbings, shootings, car attacks and explosions. The photos are so graphic they are restricted for children and pregnant women.
After visiting this museum, I have to admit there may be some justification for the camps.
Once I get home, I pull up the geotag I made of Wensu Camp on my phone. (In China, a lot of foreign internet services, such as the maps app on my iPhone). I find the main building and two minor edifices beside it. The satellite photo is dated 2018. But where are the trees in the yard? Where is the sports field to the right? Where is the outdoor area to the left? Where are the main gates and all other details I remember?
In the 2018 satellite photo, Wensu Camp looks abandoned or unfinished. The Chinese brochure the handlers gave me claims: Wensu Skill Center was founded April 2017.
Was our whole junket a huge staged Potemkin village? Hard to know.
According to the CCP, since the Camps were established in 2015, there have been no new terrorist attacks in XUAR.

As Social Media Giants Continue Their Conservative Bias and Purge – AG Barr Holds Workshop to Discuss How to Best Address Tech Tyranny and Censorship

More and more conservative thought is being destroyed by the social media giants and the fake news media .
Americans was protection for their free speech rights but the Mainstream Media ( MSM ) and social media giants don ’ t .
It ’ s time for action and AG Barr is aware of this issue .
Let ’ s hope his actions are not too late .
On February 19 , 2020 , AG Bill Barr held a workshop regarding the current environment related to free speech in the media .
In remarks for delivery to the workshop , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , civil tort law can act as an important complement to our law enforcement efforts .
Federal criminal prosecution is a powerful , but necessarily limited tool that addresses only the most serious conduct .
The threat of civil liability , however , can create industry-wide pressure and incentives to promote safer environments .
In fact , Congress has enacted civil laws specifically to supplement criminal enforcement .
For example , the Anti-Terrorism Act provides civil redress for victims of terrorist attacks on top of the criminal terrorism laws , yet judicial construction @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reach of this civil tool .
Civil liability can work hand-in-hand with the department ’ s law enforcement efforts to promote a safer environment , both online and in the physical world .
Second , broad Section 230 immunity can pose challenges for the department and other federal agencies in certain civil enforcement matters .
Actions brought in the public interest by the federal government do not raise the same concerns of mass liability for private speech torts that were at the core of Congress ’ s concerns when it enacted Section 230 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was intended to allow companies to invoke the statute ’ s immunity against the federal government acting to protect American citizens .
Finally , and importantly , Section 230 immunity is relevant to our efforts to combat lawless spaces online .
We are concerned that internet services , under the guise of Section 230 , can not only block access to law enforcement — even when officials have secured a court-authorized warrant — but also prevent victims from civil recovery .
This would leave victims of child exploitation , terrorism , human trafficking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ legal recourse .
Giving broad immunity to platforms that purposefully blind themselves – and law enforcers – to illegal conduct on their services does not create incentives to make the online world safer for children .
In fact , it may do just the opposite .

But are the AG ’ s efforts too late ?
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ Law firm had an excellent discussion with Dave Rubin on this subject recently : We were going to share a tweet by a young conservative on Twitter but he was just banned : This is a very serious problem .
Totalitarian regimes both know that in order to remain in power they have to kill any opposing decent .
This comes in many forms .
Unfortunately , today ’ s left wing media and Democrats have implemented the tools of silencing and destroying those they oppose .

On February 19, 2020, AG Bill Barr held a workshop regarding the current environment related to free speech in the media. In remarks for delivery to the workshop, the AG shared three observations:
First, civil tort law can act as an important complement to our law enforcement efforts. Federal criminal prosecution is a powerful, but necessarily limited tool that addresses only the most serious conduct. The threat of civil liability, however, can create industry-wide pressure and incentives to promote safer environments. In fact, Congress has enacted civil laws specifically to supplement criminal enforcement. For example, the Anti-Terrorism Act provides civil redress for victims of terrorist attacks on top of the criminal terrorism laws, yet judicial construction of Section 230 has severely diminished the reach of this civil tool. Civil liability can work hand-in-hand with the department’s law enforcement efforts to promote a safer environment, both online and in the physical world.
Second, broad Section 230 immunity can pose challenges for the department and other federal agencies in certain civil enforcement matters. Actions brought in the public interest by the federal government do not raise the same concerns of mass liability for private speech torts that were at the core of Congress’s concerns when it enacted Section 230. It is questionable whether Section 230 was intended to allow companies to invoke the statute’s immunity against the federal government acting to protect American citizens.
Finally, and importantly, Section 230 immunity is relevant to our efforts to combat lawless spaces online. We are concerned that internet services, under the guise of Section 230, can not only block access to law enforcement — even when officials have secured a court-authorized warrant — but also prevent victims from civil recovery. This would leave victims of child exploitation, terrorism, human trafficking, and other predatory conduct without any legal recourse. Giving broad immunity to platforms that purposefully blind themselves – and law enforcers – to illegal conduct on their services does not create incentives to make the online world safer for children. In fact, it may do just the opposite.

thegatewaypundit--2020-04-29--CURL: COVID-19 Turning Out To Be Huge Hoax Perpetrated By Media

When the postmortem is done on the media ’ s coverage of COVID-19 ( and it will be ) , it will be clear that the virus was no Black Plague — it ’ s not even the flu on a bad year .
SARS-CoV-2 , which causes COVID-19 , has killed 56,749 Americans as of Tuesday .
That ’ s not good .
But it ’ s not as bad as the 2017-2018 flu season , when 80,000 -plus perished .
And it ’ s a long cry from what all the experts were warning about just a few @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 1.7 million Americans dead ; then they redid the models ( this time apparently entering a few more “ facts ” ) and said 100,000-240,000 dead .

Their ratings soared , of course , as they scared the hell out of every American , many of whom have stayed home for the last 40 days , emerging only to buy toilet paper , but even then clad in masks and tiptoeing in fear .
But here are some facts : A recent Stanford University antibody study estimated the fatality rate from the virus is likely @ @ @ @ @ @ @ World Health Organization ( WHO ) had estimated that the death rate was 20 to 30 times higher and called for isolation policies .
On which version do you think the media focused ?
In New York City , the U.S. epicenter of the pandemic , the death rate for people 18 to 45 years old is 0.01 % , or 10 per 100,000 in the population .
People aged 75 and older , though , have a death rate 80 times that .
For children under 18 , the rate of death @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s zero .
More than half of the COVID-19 deaths in Europe occurred in long-term care or nursing-home facilities .

Nearly all the patients hospitalized for the coronavirus in New York City had underlying health conditions , according to a recent study .
“ Health records from 5,700 patients hospitalized within the Northwell Health system — which housed the most patients in the country throughout the pandemic — showed that 94 percent of patients had more than @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to the Journal of the American Medical Association , ” Fox News reported .
The study found 42 % of the patients were overweight and 53 % had hypertension , and the others suffered from a variety of ailments .
Millions and millions of Americans have already been infected with the virus — even though the U.S. media continues to report the low numbers provided by Johns Hopkins , which says that 998,000 Americans have contracted the virus as of Tuesday .
An antibody study was conducted last week in New York City @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 21.2 % ) of residents have already been infected with the coronavirus .
There are 8.5 million people in New York City , so that would mean 1.8 million New Yorkers have had the virus .
At the time of the study , there were 16,249 deaths in the city attributed to COVID-19 , which means the death rate in the city was 0.89 % at the time — far lower than reports in the U.S. media .
Results of antibody survey last week in Los Angeles found as many as 442,000 Los @ @ @ @ @ @ @ infected with the coronavirus by early April , a number far higher than the 8,000 cases confirmed at the time .
The survey suggested that the death rate from the virus could be as low as 0.18 % of COVID-19 patients , which means the actual death rate in the city is far lower than reported .
The Daily Mail reported Monday that “ coronavirus may kill 70 times fewer patients than official UK death figures suggest , studies have shown.
” The Mail said a similar fatality rate — 0.19 % — @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Helsinki , Finland .
By comparison , the Swine Flu , or H1N1 influenza , in 2009 killed 12,469 across the U.S. and as many as 575,000 deaths worldwide .

That’s not good. But it’s not as bad as the 2017-2018 flu season, when 80,000 -plus perished. And it’s a long cry from what all the experts were warning about just a few weeks ago: First, they predicted 1.7 million Americans dead; then they redid the models (this time apparently entering a few more “facts”) and said 100,000-240,000 dead.
Now, a major model relied on by the White House Coronavirus Task Force predicts about 70,000 dead by the end of August.
And for that we shut down the U.S. economy?!
As the coronavirus swept across China, then Europe — then everywhere — the U.S. media breathlessly reported every terrifying number, almost gleefully. Their ratings soared, of course, as they scared the hell out of every American, many of whom have stayed home for the last 40 days, emerging only to buy toilet paper, but even then clad in masks and tiptoeing in fear.
But here are some facts:
FATALITY RATE
A recent Stanford University antibody study estimated the fatality rate from the virus is likely 0.1% to 0.2%. The World Health Organization (WHO) had estimated that the death rate was 20 to 30 times higher and called for isolation policies. On which version do you think the media focused?
In New York City, the U.S. epicenter of the pandemic, the death rate for people 18 to 45 years old is 0.01%, or 10 per 100,000 in the population. People aged 75 and older, though, have a death rate 80 times that. For children under 18, the rate of death is zero per 100,000. That’s zero.
HEALTH AND AGE
More than half of the COVID-19 deaths in Europe occurred in long-term care or nursing-home facilities. At least one-fifth of the deaths recorded in the U.S. so far have occurred there.
Nearly all the patients hospitalized for the coronavirus in New York City had underlying health conditions, according to a recent study.
“Health records from 5,700 patients hospitalized within the Northwell Health system — which housed the most patients in the country throughout the pandemic — showed that 94 percent of patients had more than one disease other than COVID-19, according to the Journal of the American Medical Association,” Fox News reported.
The study found 42% of the patients were overweight and 53% had hypertension, and the others suffered from a variety of ailments.
FAR MORE WIDESPREAD
Millions and millions of Americans have already been infected with the virus — even though the U.S. media continues to report the low numbers provided by Johns Hopkins, which says that 998,000 Americans have contracted the virus as of Tuesday.
An antibody study was conducted last week in New York City and found that 1 in 5 (21.2%) of residents have already been infected with the coronavirus. There are 8.5 million people in New York City, so that would mean 1.8 million New Yorkers have had the virus.
At the time of the study, there were 16,249 deaths in the city attributed to COVID-19, which means the death rate in the city was 0.89% at the time — far lower than reports in the U.S. media.
Results of antibody survey last week in Los Angeles found as many as 442,000 Los Angeles County residents might have already been infected with the coronavirus by early April, a number far higher than the 8,000 cases confirmed at the time. The survey suggested that the death rate from the virus could be as low as 0.18% of COVID-19 patients, which means the actual death rate in the city is far lower than reported.
The Daily Mail reported Monday that “coronavirus may kill 70 times fewer patients than official UK death figures suggest, studies have shown.” The Mail said a similar fatality rate — 0.19% — was found in a study of residents in Helsinki, Finland.
By comparison, the Swine Flu, or H1N1 influenza, in 2009 killed 12,469 across the U.S. and as many as 575,000 deaths worldwide. Some 80% of H1N1 victims were age 65 or younger, while in New York, 84% of the victims are over 60 and 65% are over 70 — but there was no shut down for the Swine Flu.
A study, this one by Dr. Justin Silverman, estimates that there were 8.7 million coronavirus infections in the U.S. between March 8 and March 28. And as of April 17, 10% of Americans have been infected — which is roughly 33 million Americans.
Two California doctors, Dan Erickson and Artin Massih, co-owners of Accelerated Urgent Care, say it much ado about nothing. “Do we need to still shelter in place? Our answer is emphatically no. Do we need businesses to be shut down? Emphatically no. … [T]he data is showing it’s time to lift,” Erickson said.
The doctors say locking down all of America “did not produce a statistically different number of deaths” versus not locking down all of America, PJ Media reported. “Millions of cases, a small number of deaths,” Erikson said.
The media has been hyping COVID-19 since Day One, alarming Americans to the point where they voluntarily went along with shutting down the entire economy — a mistake that will likely reverberate for a decade or more.
Even as U.S. states begin to re-open — based on the data, which shows a far lower fatality rate than reported and a much wider spread of the virus — the media continue to report on what they deem frightening numbers over the deadly virus.
They aren’t, and it isn’t. COVID-19 is a bad flu at worst. And the media should be held accountable for telling us otherwise before they knew the facts.

As a Jewish person from Brooklyn NY, I'm disgusted by this. How in the world do you tweet “the Jewish community” You are the mayor of the biggest Jewish population. antisemitism has skyrocketed to unprecedented levels. Don't tweet an apology, You should resign Immediately. — Joel Fischer 🇺🇸 (@realJoelFischer) April 29, 2020
“The Jewish Community”? Which one? The Modern Orthodox on the UWS? The Reform alter cockers on the UES? The Syrian Jews of Midwood? The Bukharians of Queens? Oh, wait, you mean the Satmars of W’burg. Why don’t you say so instead of inflaming antisemtism, you imbecile. — ((( Lawrence Lewitinn, CFA))) (@lvlewitinn) April 29, 2020
