Today's Agenda
1) Thomas Barrack, was arrested and charged with being a foreign agent to United Arab Emirates: He was Trump's long time friend and Inaugural Chairman. A few days ago, he got released on $250 million bail. Is he a Foreign Agent or spy? What is this all about?
2) US Olympics Tokyo: Where are our Olympic Teams Uniforms Really Made? The dependence on off-shored production, including China, has gutted our US manufacturing base. One source of pride is having our own national team outfitted w/ clothing Made in USA. So in last few Olympics, US Congress has insisted that US companies get pride of placing their products on US olympians backs. Is it working?
3) China's Wuhan Institute of Virology: Still being suspected of being the Lab that Leaked. This week the Deputy Secretary of State, Wendy Sherman, met w/ her Chinese counterpart in Communist China to discuss various issues of concern. One of these was China's continued refusal to open up to investigators the records of the Institute in Wuhan suspected of leaking the COVID virus. What was the result?
4) Pegasus Spyware by Israel's NSO Group Used to Hack Indian Journalist?: Pegasus is a spyware developed by the Israeli cyberarms firm NSO Group that can be covertly installed on mobile phones. Although Pegasus is intended to be used by legitimate governments against criminals and terrorists, a major investigation confirms it is being used by authoritarian governments to spy on critics and opponents, including journalists. What's going on?
5)
Israeli New PM allows 1700 Zionists to 'invade' the Al Aqsa Mosque: on Saturday night July 18th, Israeli police 'cleared' the Al Aqsa Mosque of Muslim worshipers in preparation for a march of 1,600 Israeli Zionists into the Mosque. Israeli police reportedly beat Muslim worshipers, and deployed tear gas. Why did this happen? What does it mean for Israel-Palestine relations ?
