A large gang of #cocaine and #partydrugs dealers in #Essex including many middle class white men #laundering #money through legit businesses got nicked, found guilty in #Court and sent to #jail - but what stands out here is the sentences are much the same as for political #protests in Britain.
What message does that give to young people?
Especially as #drugs can at least in the short term make you easy money and increase your friend circle..

Six senators accused Deputy Attorney General #Todd #Blanche this week of having a "glaring" conflict of interest
when he shut down investigations into crypto companies, dealers and exchanges
and eliminated an enforcement team dedicated to looking for crypto-related fraud and money-laundering schemes.A letter written by Democratic Sens. Elizabeth #Warren, Dick #Durbin and Mazie #Hirono and signed by Sens. Sheldon #Whitehouse, Christopher #Coons and Richard #Blumenthal
cited a ProPublica investigation that revealed
👉Blanche owned at least $159,000 worth of crypto-related assets when he ordered an end to the work.Durbin, Hirono, Whitehouse, Coons and Blumenthal serve on the Senate Judiciary Committee, which oversees the Justice Department.
The same senators previously sent a letter to Blanche raising concerns that his actions would help Donald Trump’s financial interests in cryptocurrency.
In their letter sent on Wednesday, they said Blanche’s actions appeared to violate the federal conflict of interest law.“Last year, we asked for the rationale behind your puzzling decision to scale back the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) cryptocurrency enforcement efforts and urged you to reconsider.
We write now in light of recent reporting that you held substantial amounts of cryptocurrency at the time you made this decision,” the senators wrote.
“At the very least, you had a glaring conflict of interest and should have recused yourself.”Blanche, the second-highest-ranking official at the Justice Department, signed an #ethics #agreement 💥in February promising to dump his cryptocurrency within 90 days of his confirmation and not to participate in any matter that could have a “direct and predictable effect on my financial interests in the virtual currency” until his bitcoin and other crypto-related products were sold.
❌But on April 7, before he divested, he issued a memo titled
“Ending Regulation by Prosecution”
-- that halted investigations launched under President Joe Biden. In the memo, Blanche condemned the Biden Justice Department’s tough approach toward crypto as “a reckless strategy of regulation by prosecution, which was ill conceived and poorly executed.”🆘The memo disbanded the agency’s National Cryptocurrency Enforcement Team, which had won several high-profile crypto-related convictions.
Blanche said the agency would instead target only the terrorists and drug traffickers who illicitly used crypto, not the platforms that hosted them.Days later, the six senators urged Blanche to reconsider, contending that his decision would otherwise help support sanctions evasion, drug trafficking, scams and child exploitation.
🔥In their latest letter, they said their concerns had been realized.
They cited an independent report that found there was a surge in illicit cryptocurrency activities in 2025,
including crimes tied to
#money #laundering and
#human #trafficking.
They also questioned Blanche’s reasons for the policy shift.
⚠️“Certainly, President Trump’s financial interests seem to have motivated some of his pardons of criminals convicted of cryptocurrency-related crimes,” their letter stated.
⚠️“But the fact that you held substantial amounts of cryptocurrency at the time you made this decision calls into question your own motivations"https://www.propublica.org/article/todd-blanche-crypto-conflict-senator-letter

Twice as big as the White House itself, looks like. The #WhiteHouse is 55K sq ft, the new wing will be 90K, with a double-height glass-enclosed walkway connector.
Who's to stop the next president (in 2041) from tearing it down, restoring everything to the way it was?
Would you prefer we erase this revision, or would you say "it's done, let's leave it"?

@Tengrain > I'm trying to get this to trend:
#Republicans tried to turn #HunterBidensLaptop into a "#ConstitutionalCrisis", claiming foreign gov'ts giving jobs to #HunterBiden were just attempts to influence FORMER VP NOT YET POTUS Joe #Biden, and being REIMBURSED BY HIS DIL a mere $40K was actually #China laundering a #bribe to a FORMER VP.
5 years later, #Dictators are #laundering MILLIONS DIRECTLY TO T**** via his #MemeCoin & gifting him a $400M "flying palace". Silence.

We never heard any more about this. So he never signed it, meaning we can't force his nominations to go through FBI background checks? This is why we're seeing $1M donations?
Why aren't Dems making a stink about this -- remember, it's the incoming party of grift who made poor Jimmy Carter sell his family peanut farm.

The US really needs to crack down on the Indian Government. Buying Russian oil, laundering 100s of Millions in banned Tech, and killing Canadian Citizens.
Who knows how many people in India working for Western Corporations are on The payroll of Russian Intelligence Services?
