Accused of $11M fraud, he flees country

Lou Raguse of KARE-11 TV (NBC, Minneapolis) has the report on Abdirashid Said, accused of an $11 million Medicaid fraud, fled the country a week before his scheduled courtroom trial.
...
And how did he get away? He posted a $150,000 unconditional bond. The judge did not make him surrender his passport. This, despite a previous conviction for Medicaid fraud.

Did the judge buy the dude's airline ticket, too?

The DOJ Opens Criminal Investigation Into J6 Star Witness Cassidy Hutchinson

The DOJ's Civil Rights Division has opened a criminal investigation into Cassidy Hutchinson, the former White House staffer whose 2022 testimony before the January 6 Select Committee became one of the most explosive moments of that entire political spectacle, becoming the left's favorite weapon against Donald Trump. The probe focuses on whether Hutchinson committed perjury during her televised June 2022 hearing.
...
She claimed that when Donald Trump's motorcade didn't head to the Capitol, he exploded. In her words: "So when the president had gotten into the vehicle with [Secret Service agent] Bobby [Engel], he thought that they were going up to the Capitol. And when Bobby had relayed to him, 'We're not, we don't have the assets to do it, it's not secure, we're going back to the West Wing,' the president had a very strong and very angry response to that. Tony described him as being irate. The president said to him something to the effect of, 'I'm the f*****g president, take me up to the Capitol now.' To which Bobby responded, 'Sir, we have to go back to the West Wing.' He then reached up front of the vehicle to grab at the steering wheel. Mr. Engel grabbed his arm, he said, 'Sir, you need to take your hand off the steering wheel. We're going back to the West Wing, we're not going to the Capitol.' Mr. Trump then used his free hand to lunge towards Bobby Engel."

It was quite a story, with a few problems. For one thing, it was ridiculous, but the Secret Service also denied it. None of the witnesses she spoke of corroborated her story. Heck, last year, even anti-Trump Special Counsel Jack Smith admitted he didn't believe her, and dismissed her account as "second or even thirdhand hearsay.”

That Pelosiroo's Kangaroo court did zero against her perjury demonstrates the profundity of the court's marsupial character.

PAULS VALLEY, Okla. -The Pauls Valley community is celebrating Principal Kirk Moore, who tackled a gunman at the high school on Tuesday.

...

Moore suffered a gunshot wound to the leg while subduing the gunman.
...
The gunman in a shooting at Pauls Valley High School has been identified as 20-year-old Victor Hawkins, a former student, according to the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigations.

OSBI said Hawkins was taken into the Garvin County Jail on two counts of Pointing a Firearm, one count of Shooting with Intent to Kill, and two counts of Unlawful Carry.
...
OSBI said the school principal, Kirk Moore, noticed the gunman when he stepped into the school, and stepped in.

“The principal of the school had noticed that an adult male subject, 20 years old, had stepped foot into the school with a gun,” Hunter McKee with the OSBI said. “When the principal noticed this, he quickly stepped in as well as other school staff. The subject was able to fire multiple rounds where the principal was hurt, but no one else was. And the principal, as well as school staff, was able to subdue the subject before, obviously, other people were hurt, including students.”

Here's another fun fact: Nobody ever made up sex trafficking lies about them and got legally quashed for those lies.

That's because most conservatives are actually decent human beings instead of subhuman pond scum that perpetually create fabrications.

... the country he went to war with, which despite being damaged militarily, is now more powerful economically and politically than it ever was before.

Here is a more neutral summary analysis of Iran's current status, https://x.com/Osint613/status/2042572016230760934 :

Quote
The nuclear threat was pushed back. Not eliminated. Pushed back.

Iran’s ability to launch sustained mass ballistic missile barrages at Israel as an existential threat has been completely degraded.

The regime’s missile industry took a major hit. Mass production capability likely cut by at least ~80%.

Hezbollah has been severely weakened. ...

Gulf states may want to work closer with Israel, ...

Iranian economy was completely decimated before going into this, imagine where it is now, ...

It's been happening since well before the current Iran War, but Israel has pretty much decapitated, disemboweled, and flayed Iran's Hamas proxy group. Iran's sty of proxies has been reduced to the Houthis. The X post points out that Iran still controls the Strait of Hormuz (IMO, that, too, is much degraded), and the Mullahs' regime, while under newleadership, has not been replaced.

We know LBJ liked to whip out Jumbo during meetings and Bill may not have stepped on his own, but was he into others stepping on it?  Maybe, that may have been why he stayed with Hillary.
