Solid Zero...

 

Trump took one more shot at Mayor Bill de Blasio, poking fun at the “really big political news” that the mayor ended his no-chance presidential campaign Friday morning.

“(He) was polling at a solid ZERO but had tremendous room for growth,” Trump tweeted.

De Blasio, who failed to qualify for the third Democratic debate last week in Houston, joined the race in May. A September poll of New York showed zero percent support in his home state, and he has lagged in nationally polling as well.

“NYC is devastated, he’s coming back.”

Two former JPMorgan metals traders described as "among the defendant's co-conspirators" already pleaded guilty in October and August to illegal spoofing.

Nowak and Smith were placed on leave earlier in September pending the FBI investigation.

• Michael Nowak: 


• Christopher Jordan

Smith, Nowak, Jordan, and their co-conspirators allegedly engaged in a complex scheme to trade precious metals in a way that negatively affected the natural balance of supply-and-demand," William F. Sweeney Jr., an FBI assistant director, said in a statement.

They were accused of placing orders they intended to cancel just before execution. These "deceptive orders" were made to "create liquidity and drive prices toward orders they wanted to execute on the opposite side of the market," the Justice Department said.

THE mystery of the man whose audacious crime shocked the world and gave us modern day airport security checks, may finally have been revealed.

Secret FBI files uncovered this week reveal the identity of the daredevil skyjacker who has been mythologised in film, TV and song. For 45 years he was on the FBI’s Most Wanted list, until, in 2016, the agency closed the case in frustration.

But the newly-uncovered FBI documents reveal investigators believed the audacious criminal who leapt from the jet was former US Army pilot Robert Rackstraw – and that he was also an undercover CIA operative.

Robert Rackstraw died in July, aged 75 – and one of the world’s greatest crime mysteries may finally have been solved. Express.co.uk

Tensions in the Middle East have escalated following drone attacks on two major oil facilities in Saudi Arabia.

The pre-dawn strikes on Saturday knocked out more than half of crude output from the world's top exporter - five percent of the global oil supply - and cut output by 5.7 million barrels per day.

Yemen's Houthi rebels, who have been locked in a war with a Saudi-UAE-led coalition since 2015, claimed responsibility for the attacks, warning Saudi Arabia that their targets "will keep expanding".

Saudi Arabia, meanwhile, has promised to "confront and deal with this terrorist aggression", while US President Donald Trump hinted at possible military action after Riyadh concluded its investigation into the attacks.

Comment: 

*The Saudis are bombing the Houthis in Yemen for five years. Any body concern?

*Reduction of 5 Million Barrell/per day is not a bad thing. Climate change is also blamed on Petroleum. So other industries such as cars, trucks, etc. can go full force into the new era of electric vehicles.

*Let us adjust our usage/production of oil as the prices will climb higher.

Skip war, think of adjustment. Just a thought.

Beto had a strange episode during the last Democrats debate about guns.

Edawn Louis Coughman is a former NFL player and business owner who has been charged with a “Jussie Smollet-type” MAGA hoax

It didn’t take long for police to figure out that it wasn’t an actual robbery and vandalism crime that took place…it was a hoax pulled off by Mr. Coughman to collect insurance money and trash Trump supporters.

Clearly, Mr. Coughman is not the brightest bulb in the box – most of these narcissistic hoax artists aren’t, which is why they’re always getting busted for their hoaxes. You just don’t always hear about it.

Police also say that Coughman had spray-paint on his hands, and that the paint on the racial slurs in his restaurant was still fresh when they got there.  

“He had reported this incident to his insurance company prior to officers conducting that first pull-over.” “He was attempting to leave that shopping center when our officers conducted that felony stop. Everything lined up for this perfect arrest.” 

He was charged with insurance fraud, for tampering with his license plate, and for making a false report.
