As requested.

The discussion about Scottish independence just got more interesting - to the tune of a billion barrels of oil.

Jared Kushner met w/ the head of a Russian state-owned bank (Vnesheconombank) - one that recently played host to a spy ring.

One of the spies was arrested in NYC in 2015. He was gathering economic intel for Russia.

The spy (Buryakov) worked at Vnesheconombank & posed as a banker while covertly working on behalf of Russia’s foreign intelligence service. pic.twitter.com/I3vrVW09iO

He pled guilty to criminal conspiracy in 2016, in the Southern District of NY. That was Preet Bharara's district.

tldr: Kislyak arranged a meeting btw Jared Kushner & the head of a Russian bank that was/is the host of Russian spy operations in the US.

tldr part 2: The spy operation that was broken up in 2015 was prosecuted in Preet Bharara's district of NYC.

But I'm sure this is just a coincidence, right? And just a coincidence that Jared Kushner failed to disclose it... 👀

So me of you may remember my post a few weeks ago about the South African racehorse named President Trump. I am pleased to report there have been more developments in the story:

Three days left to submit comments to Ofcom on Murdoch's Sky bid.

Easy email form here: speakout.38degrees.org.uk/campaigns/2112

Or look at the notes on Ofcom's own site:
"Invitation to comment for public interest test on the proposed acquisition of Sky plc by Twenty-First Century Fox, Inc."

Ofcom's direct email for this: [email protected]

From Ofcom's site:

Public Interest Test
On 16 March 2017 the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport issued a European intervention notice requesting Ofcom to report by 16 May 2017 on the effects of the proposed transaction on:

"the need, in relation to every different audience in the United Kingdom or in a particular area or locality of the United Kingdom, for there to be a sufficient plurality of persons with control of the media enterprises serving that audience"; (the "plurality public interest consideration") and

"the need for persons carrying on media enterprises, and for those with control of such enterprises, to have a genuine commitment to the attainment in relation to broadcasting of the standards objectives set out in section 319 of the Communications Act 2003"; (the "broadcast standards public interest consideration").

Ofcom has today published a guidance note setting out the process and timetable for preparing our report on the public interest considerations set out by the Secretary of State. Ofcom has also published an invitation to comment and invites written submissions to be sent to [email protected] by 30 March 2017.

at the "vocal" and "arrogant" racehorse now being renamed Fake News.

""Nothing was meant by it," said a White House aide. "

sums it up really.

I suppose it will be worse if we get Pence as something will be meant by it.

Meanwhile climate change keeps on going its merry way.

That made me hoot, Cave. So the horse may now be called 'Fake News'?

Yup cozie, they've just got to wait for the official approval from the naming registry.

Racehorse is hilarious
Proper made me laugh

The Dow seems to be on a down turn.

But I can explain it. When figures look good, it's down to the Trump effect. When they look bad, they're either fake or people shouldn't look at figures in isolation.

Unless you're Trump. Then you can look only at the good figures.

There's been a rally in the markets.

That dailykos article is explosive. Surely this is very serious and impeachable...

"The #Russiagate scandal involves claims Trump was given 0.5% of Rosneft and aid in getting elected in exchange for lifting US sanctions"

This was only in December. Kushner's in it up to his neck alongside his father in law.

Rosneft is a Russian oil company.

Oh Yes. He's implicated fully.

What's his position at the WH now?

Well at least he hasn't suffered from defenestration.

Navalny jailed for 15 days

Apparently kushner is talking to committee about his ties.

I bet he is.

Michael Flynn is still very quiet isn't he? And Manafort.....

Until they oust Nunes this whole thing will stall though

Very quiet indeed.

That kos article posted by lion above is very good. I like the way they have posted the full Twitter thread and then given a fact check on some of the points raised, some of the assertions the Twitter thread are not quite right, but much of the main bits appear to be corroborated by other sources.

Are we not working on the assumption that Flynn is being very noisy, just it's in a sound proof room in and CIA basement somewhere

Drain the swamp, eh? I think not...

Try again...

Aww I'd place a bet on Fake News

God I hope Kushner goes down

My 'Nevertheless, she persisted' t-shirt arrived And I managed to find a place that did child sizes, although not sure if they were actually donating the money anywhere, so DD has got a shirt on its way too.

No tweets for a long time.

Donald, u ok hun. Concerned head tilt.
