[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]… to Jewish kids in NYC
Michail Chkhikvishvili, 21, was arrested earlier this month on an Interpol warrant
He has since been indicted by a grand jury in Brooklyn, facing 20 years in prison
The leader of an Eastern European neo-Nazi group has been charged in a plot to have a follower dress up as Santa Claus and hand out poisoned candy to Jewish kids in New York City.
Michail Chkhikvishvili, a 21 year old from the Republic of Georgia, was arrested pursuant to an Interpol Wanted Person Diffusion in Moldova on July 6. On Tuesday, a federal grad jury in Brooklyn indicted him on four counts including soliciting hate crimes and acts of mass violence following an FBI-New York Joint Terrorism Task Force Probe.
'As alleged, the defendant sought to recruit others to commit violent attacks and killings in furtherance of his Neo-Nazi ideologies,' said US Attorney Breon Peace.
'His goal was to spread hatred, fear and destruction by encouraging bombings, arson and even poisoning children, for the purpose of harming racial minorities, the Jewish community and homeless individuals.'
Prosecutors say Chkhikvishvili - who went by the nicknames Michael, Mishka, Commander Butcher and Butcher - leads the Maniacs Murder Cult,
There’s something to be said for truth in advertising…
an international extremist group based in Russia and Ukraine.
So that eeeeeevil neo-Nazi stupidity is not the unique characteristic of one or the other, AND they cooperate even yet? Good to know.
The group adheres to a 'neo-Nazi accelerationist ideology and promotes violence and violent acts against racial minorities, the Jewish community and other groups it deems "undesirables,"' federal prosecutors claim. Its goal is to upset social order and governments via terrorism and violent acts that promote fear and chaos.
The group has spread into the United States, and Chkhikvishvili was arrested after he unwittingly tied to recruit an undercover FBI agent. The undercover agent asked the cult leader in September 2024 whether there was an application process to join the group, a criminal complaint says.
Chkhikvishvili then allegedly replied, 'Well yes, we ask people for brutal beating, arson/explosion or murder vids on camera.'
He then went on to advise that 'poisoning and arson are [the] best options for murder' and suggested he consider a larger 'mass murder in the United States.
Chkhikvishvili also suggested the undercover cop choose 'low-race targets.'
By November, Chkhikvishvili allegedly began scheming a 'mass casualty event for New York City on New Years Eve.
'The scheme involved an individual dressing up as Santa Claus and handing out candy laced with poison to racial minorities and children at Jewish schools in Brooklyn,' prosecutors said.
He then drafted step-by-step instructions on how to carry out the scheme, writing in a November 2 missive that the undercover agent should use delivery services or pay with cash to buy the poisons and the chocolate candies.
'After giving around poisoned candies to many racial minorities and traitors, just go to [a] taxi, pay to go somewhere where you will have alternative clothes... and burn Santa clothes and equipment,' Chkhikvishvili allegedly wrote in the message.
Along with the message, prosecutors say the neo-Nazi provided the undercover cop with manuals on creating and mixing poisons and gases. He also allegedly told the undercover agent to specifically target the Jewish community, noting, 'Jews are literally everywhere' in Brooklyn.
It seems Chkhikvishvili had high hopes for the plan, intending for it to be a 'bigger action than Breivik,' referring to Anders Behring Breivik, a Norwegian neo-Nazi who killed 77 people in a bombing and mass shooting in 2011.
'Once you do poison attack, I'll do message against US government,' he allegedly wrote to the undercover agent in November as he repeatedly asked for status updates.
'MMC will become bigger than al Qaeda once it drops.'
When New Year's Eve passed without any hate attack, prosecutors said he switched the plan to focus on poisoning children on 'some Jewish holiday.'
Prosecutors also claim that since September 2021, Chkhikvishvili had distributed a manifesto entitled Hater's Handbook, in which he states that he has 'murdered for the white race' and is 'willing to bring more chaos in this rotten world
'Our main goal is to spread flames of Lucifer and continue his message of ethnic cleansing, great drive or purification,' the handbook said, according to the criminal complaint.
It would go on to encourage readers to commit school shootings and to use children to perpetrate suicide bombings and other mass murders targeting racial minorities, prosecutors say.
'The document describes methods and strategies for committing mass 'terror attacks,' including, for example, using vehicles to target "large outdoor festivals, conventions, celebrations and parades" and "pedestrian-congested streets,' they claim.
'It specifically encourages committing attacks within the United States.'
Chkhikvishvili would even allegedly tell others he committed hate crimes while living with his grandmother in Brooklyn in 2022 - bragging to the leader of the Feurkrieg Division, another neo-Nazi group, that he tortured and tried to kill an elderly Jewish man. Investigators later determined that Chkhikvishvili had worked for a Brooklyn-based rehabilitation facility and was employed by an Orthodox Jewish family to care for a now-deceased man.
'I got paid to torture dying Jew,' he allegedly bragged in a message to the other neo-Nazi leader, sharing photos from the elderly man's hospital bed. But the feds are not accusing Chkhikvishvili for the man's death, noting they spoke to family members of the deceased who said he 'had been sick for some time.'
Chkhikvishviliv is now facing a maximum of 20 years in prison for solicitation of felonies, conspiring to solicit violent felonies, distributing information pertaining to the making and use of explosive devices and transmitting threatening communication. It is unclear whether he has retained an attorney who can speak on his behalf.
[10News] A person is believed to have poisoned them over a bad investment.
Initial autopsy results showed traces of cyanide in the blood of six Vietnamese and American guests at a central Bangkok luxury hotel, and one of them is believed to have poisoned the others over a bad investment, Thai authorities said Wednesday.
The bodies were found Tuesday in the Grand Hyatt Erawan Bangkok, a landmark at a central intersection in the capital busy with malls, government buildings and public transit.
The six had last been seen alive when food was delivered to the room Monday afternoon. The staff saw one woman receive the food, and security footage showed the rest arriving one by one shortly after. There were no other visitors, no one was seen leaving and the door was locked. A maid found them Tuesday afternoon when they failed to check out of the room.
Upon entering the room, hotel staff found that food ordered from the previous day was left untouched, with some servings of fried rice still under plastic wrap. While the food was untouched, several used teacups were on a nearby table, next to two thermoses.
Lt. Gen. Trairong Piwpan, chief of the Thai police force's forensic division, said there were traces of cyanide in the cups and thermoses police found.
Initial results from autopsies of the six bodies, performed at Bangkok’s Chulalongkorn Hospital, were shared later Wednesday. Kornkiat Vongpaisarnsin, head of the forensic medicine department at Chulalongkorn University’s medical school, said at a news conference that there was cyanide found in the blood of all six, and a CAT scan showed no signs of blunt force trauma, reinforcing the hypothesis that they had been poisoned.
Chulalongkorn’s dean of medicine, Chanchai Sittipunt, said the team knew enough from the cyanide to determine it was likely the cause of death.
Bangkok police chief Lt. Gen. Thiti Sangsawang identified the dead as two Vietnamese Americans and four Vietnamese nationals, and said they were three men and three women. Their ages ranged from 37 to 56, according to Noppasin Punsawat, Bangkok deputy police chief. He said the case appeared to be personal and would not impact the safety of tourists.
A husband and wife among the dead had invested about 10 million baht ($278,000) with two of the others, and that could be a motive, said Noppasin, citing information obtained from relatives. The investment was meant to build a hospital in Japan and the group might have been meeting to settle the matter. Police say one killed the rest but did not say which of the six was the suspect.
Bangkok police chief Lt. Gen. Thiti Sangsawang said Tuesday that four bodies were in the living room and two in the bedroom. He said two bodies appeared to have tried reaching for the door but collapsed before they could.
Noppasin said Wednesday that a seventh person whose name was part of the hotel booking was a sibling of one of the six and left Thailand on July 10. Police believe the seventh person had no involvement in the deaths.
The Vietnamese and United States embassies have been contacted over the deaths, and the American FBI was en route, Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin said.
"This wasn’t an act of terrorism or a breach in security. Everything is fine," he said.
Trairong said a mass suicide was unlikely because some of them had arranged future parts of their trip, such as guides and drivers. He added that the bodies being in different parts of the hotel room suggested they did not knowingly consume poison and wait for their deaths together.
U.S. State Dept. spokesperson Matthew Miller in Washington offered condolences to the families of the dead. He said the U.S. is closely monitoring the situation and would communicate with local authorities. U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken spoke with his Thai counterpart Tuesday, but Miller said he thought that call happened before the deaths were reported and he didn’t know if it came up in their conversation.
The five-star Grand Hyatt Erawan is one of Bangkok's landmark hotels. The eponymous Erawan Shrine that sits on the corner of its block has been a major tourist draw ever since it was erected on the advice of astrologers during the hotel's construction in 1956 to ward off bad karma.
Visitors worship the shrine, requesting divine intervention on issues from relationship troubles to exam preparation. The shrine was the target of a 2015 bombing that killed 20 people and injured more than 100.

[Gateway] Investigative reporter Laura Loomer has uncovered a BlackRock ad from 2023 that appears to feature Thomas Matthew Crooks, the 20-year-old shooter who tried assassinating President Donald Trump at his campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday evening.
BlackRock has deep ties to Biden, with many former executives and employees being hired to fill his administration.
The BlackRock ad was filmed at Bethel Park High School, which Crooks attende

Just think in 3 days the PUBLIC has uncovered more on the shooter than the Media and _ _ _ has,or at least will share.
A few examples:
* We know the Dad's Name/Address.
* The shooting range they used.
* When he purchased ammo and how much.
* Public saw how he got on the roof as was reporting it
* He was spotted 8+ mins before he popped his 1st round.
* His political contribution went to a far left organization.
* He was recorded on someone else's social media having a Trump freak out.
* He registered Republican, but remember the Dems were doing this same thing prior to the Pennsylvania primary? They TOLD their voters to register as Republicans to be able to pick Biden's opponent.
* Trump's Shooter was in a Far Left BlackRock ESG ads. A company that tried to manipulate 401K investments and other investing funds.
QUESTIONS:
No Social Media Accounts, or were they pre-deleted?
When will we see the Manifesto video?

I'm far more interested in the strange behavior woman that was sitting behind Trump.
Yet another curious data point. Humans are capable of a wide range of random and often inappropriate behaviors, but if people were getting shot next to me, reaching for my phone would not be the first thing on my mind. Bets on whether we ever find out who she was?
[MSN -WashingtonPost] Within seconds of 20-year-old Pennsylvania resident Thomas Matthew Crooks opening fire at former president Donald Trump’s rally in Butler on Saturday evening, he was fatally shot by the Secret Service. But how did a specialized team of countersnipers fail to prevent its worst security lapse in decades?
A Washington Post analysis, based on more than 40 videos and photos, as well as satellite imagery and terrain analysis used to build a 3D model examining the rally site and shooter’s position, found that the two Secret Service countersniper teams may have initially been hindered in their ability to see the shooter as he crawled up the roof due to its slanted sides. Trees near the rally probably played a part in obscuring the shooter from at least one team assigned to detect and neutralize would-be snipers.
The Secret Service is responsible for the overall coordination of security measures during an event. The agency’s director said it tasked local law enforcement with securing the building from which Crooks opened fire and that officers failed to prevent him from accessing the roof.
The Secret Service declined to comment when asked whether the slant of the roof or the trees would have impacted the teams’ ability to respond.
The Post’s assessments were reviewed and corroborated by three former law enforcement officials, including two retired snipers and a former Secret Service agent, as well as a former Marine sniper.

Can't understand why the Secret Service didn't use surveillance drones. They are not expensive and easy to use and you can attached AI modules to ID 'possible' danger.
Maybe there is a law that prevents this but I have looked a bit and can't find any.

My understanding was that 2 drones are part of the basic loadout. There were plenty of drones in action after the fact based on the photo angles
[FoxNews] Evan Wright, the author of the book "Generation Kill," who rose to prominence as a journalist when he embedded himself with the U.S. Marines during the Iraq War, has died at the age of 59.
The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner's Office listed Wright's cause of death on Friday as a gunshot wound to the head. He reportedly died by suicide.
The Rolling Stone says Wright's 2003 series of articles on the Iraq War, titled "The Killer Elite" for the magazine, won him a National Magazine Award for Excellence in Reporting the following year.
Wright then would expand upon his reporting in the book "Generation Kill," which was later adapted into an HBO miniseries, according to Rolling Stone.
"We've lost a fine journalist and storyteller. Evan's contributions to the scripting and filming of ‘Generation Kill’ were elemental," David Simon, one of the writers for the show, wrote on X regarding Wright's death. "He was charming, funny and not a little bit feral, as many reporters are."
"I knew Evan as a good and gentle guy in a place that was neither good nor gentle," Lt. Nathan Fick – whom the Rolling Stone says was featured prominently in "The Killer Elite," said in a statement.
"A few days before the invasion of Iraq in 2003, my commanding officer told me that a journalist from Rolling Stone would be riding with my platoon. I was upset. At best, he would be a distraction; at worst, a threat," Fick said.
"After our first close-quarters firefight, I found Evan Wright counting bullet holes in the door next to his seat. He could have left at any time, gone back to Kuwait to check into a nice hotel and file his story, but he didn’t. Instead, he spent many nights at the forward edge of the entire U.S. invasion," Fick also said. "He wasn’t a Marine, but many of us who spent March and April, 2003 alongside him have thought of Evan for the past two decades as one of us. Rest in peace, brother."
Wright also wrote the books "How to Get Away with Murder in America," described by Amazon as the "extraordinary, true account of an FBI murder investigation of a top-ranking CIA officer" – and "American Desperado: My Life -- From Mafia Soldier to Cocaine Cowboy to Secret Government Asset" with Jon Roberts, detailing the letters "rise to become the Medellin Cartel’s most effective smuggler."
In "Bad Therapist," Wright, according to Amazon, wrote about "the biggest scandal in the history of America’s $40 billion drug recovery industry" involving Chris Bathum, who was a "respected therapist" but also a "total fraud."
"When I started this story – it's about this heroic woman who went to him when she thought he was a therapist… she thought it was like a magical place and she found out that it was wrong and they were trying to kill her," Wright told FOX Business about the book in 2019.
Just prior to his death, Wright, on his account on X, was promoting the Max series "Teen Torture, Inc.," which he was interviewed for, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Warner Bros. Discovery says the documentary series "follows ongoing efforts to expose America’s ‘troubled teen’ industry," which "has used what it calls 'tough love' as a form of treatment despite numerous deaths, countless suicides, life-altering injuries, and instances of child sexual abuse."
Wright is survived by his wife and three children.
[Patch] Musk announced SpaceX will move its headquarters from Hawthorne, California to Starbase in Texas in protest of new state law.
Elon Musk announced Tuesday he would be leaving California, and he was taking SpaceX and his social media company X with him to Texas in protest of a state law signed by Gov. Gavin Newsom that prevents California schools from notifying parents if their children identify as transgender.
Musk posted on X Tuesday that he plans on moving SpaceX from Hawthorne, California to Starbase, Texas. X will move to Austin from San Francisco.
"This is the final straw," Musk wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter. "Because of this law and the many others that preceded it, attacking both families and companies, SpaceX will now move its HQ from Hawthorne, California, to Starbase, Texas."
Governor Gavin Newsom signed the Support Academic Futures & Educators for Today's Youth (SAFETY) Act into law on Monday. The law bans all California school districts from adopting "parental notification policies" that force teachers and staff to inform parents or guardians when students identify as a different gender.
"I did make it clear to Governor Newsom about a year ago that laws of this nature would force families and companies to leave California to protect their children," Musk said on X.
AB1955 also requires schools to provide resources to parents and students about how to discuss issues of gender identity.
Before the new law's passing, several California school districts had already adopted "outing" policies including in Orange, Place, Riverside and San Bernardino counties.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott was quick to respond to Musk's vow to move the company, writing on X, "This cements Texas as the leader in space exploration."
SpaceX already has significant operations in Texas, where it is developing its massive Starship vehicle—billed as the most powerful rocket ever flown—for use in the Artemis program and human/cargo missions to Mars.
Musk, the wealthiest man in the world,has long been a critic of California's progressive politics and has used his companies, Tesla and SpaceX, to make his displeasure known. In 2020, he threatened to move Tesla headquarters to Texas over California's COVID policies, and in 2021, he followed through on that threat, announcing plans to move Tesla headquarters from Palo Alto to Austin.
Musk has also said that he has moved his residence from California to Texas, where there is no state personal income tax.
Caitlin Jenner, one of the nation's most prominent transgender celebrities, expressed her support for Musk's decision on X.
"Strong move," she wrote. "The state is not the parent! Parental Rights"
Lord Garth posted the Ay Pee take on this story, commenting, “I think Space X HQ has about 700 employees and Twitter has about 1100. The Twitter HQ will likely be housed near the Tesla HQ which is near the Austin airport east of downtown Austin.”
Tesla, where Musk is CEO, moved its corporate headquarters to Austin from Palo Alto, California in 2021.
Musk has also said that he has moved his residence from California to Texas, where there is no state personal income tax.
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] A teenager who was arrested for jaywalking has had the last laugh after a judge threw out his ridiculous case.
The 17-year-old was on the sidewalk with friends in the suburb of Dunleith, a suburb of Wilmington,
…the photos make it look like it’s not a very nice part of town, though when it was built in the 1950s it was the first housing development marketed for African-Americans in Delaware…
on June 29 this year when the group realized cops were preparing to approach them.
Perhaps sensing something was not right, he took out his phone and began filming the interaction, capturing the moment two officers pulled up to the group.
In the clip, an officer is heard aggressively demanding they stop and provide identification, but is reluctant to tell them why. Within just one minute, the teenager is arrested.
While he exacted some form of revenge when a judge later threw out the case, the teen's mother has since branded the officer's conduct as 'absolutely unhinged'.
The police have maintained they were right to stop the group of young people, claiming they had been observed behaving both 'recklessly' and 'suspiciously'.
'Officers witnessed the group run across New Castle Avenue without utilizing a proper crosswalk. While crossing the road, one of the individuals was observed running recklessly through active traffic, nearly causing an accident,' said Senior Cpl. Richard Chambers in a statement.
It was claimed another teen was walking holding his waistband, possibly to give the impression to others that he might have been carrying a weapon in his pants.
Officers said also said that two of the teens had been 'wearing hooded sweatshirts with the hoods up,' which also made officers suspicious.
'Officers observed this to be odd as it was approximately 80 degrees,' the statement said.
I can, and I am sure many others also, with Dashcam's could send 100's of Jaywalking idiot videos.
My best exp so far, is the idiot within 20 ft of the light controlled crosswalk. Running across 6 lanes with a GREEN Light between vehicles moving, to get some smokes and a beer. Yeah I pulled to the store to see what his emergency was.

On the other side of the coin, vehicle drivers who don't stop for folks walking in marked crosswalks (even with the flashing lights).
And once again, don't get me started on bicycle riders.

Seems some people want to get as far from crosswalks, or, at night, street lights, in order to cross.
Bikers going more or less with traffic are bad enough. Barely missed, a couple of times, black guys gutting across multiple lanes forcing jam stops and swervng.

[CP-TCN Video] Conservative political commentator Tucker Carlson on Monday framed the recent assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump as further evidence that evil spiritual forces are at work in the United States.
Speaking at a Heritage Foundation event during the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Carlson also noted that Christians pose the greatest threat to the destructive spiritual forces that have taken different forms throughout history.
Echoing the April 2023 address he gave at The Heritage Foundation's 50th anniversary just days before his unceremonious ouster from Fox News, Carlson reiterated Monday that the increasingly irrational, violent nature of the country's political battles suggest that they run "deeper" than politics.

[Regnum] Researchers have discovered evidence of the existence of a cave on the Moon that could become a refuge for people from the harsh conditions of the Moon and a base for living. The results of the study were published in the scientific journal Nature.
"Several potential underground openings, called lunar pits, have been found on the lunar surface. These pits may be promising locations for future lunar bases, as they could provide shelter from the harsh lunar surface and support long-term human exploration of the Moon," the study says.
A team of scientists from Italy and the United States conducted a study that analyzed data collected by NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO). They found that the Sea of Tranquility, the deepest known cavity on the Moon, leads to a cave about 45 meters wide and about 77 meters long, located about 150 meters below the surface.
According to the study, further direct exploration of the cave could confirm the presence of a stable underground environment, protected from radiation, with optimal temperature conditions for future human use. However, it remains unclear whether any of the more than 200 lunar pits found at various latitudes on the Moon could lead to such caves.
As reported by the Regnum news agency, the Xinhua agency reported that the Chinese probe Chang'e-6 with lunar soil returned to Earth. According to its assessment, Chang'e-6 has become one of China's most difficult space exploration missions. The device landed on the far side of the Moon on June 2 and carried out sample collection work. On June 4, it launched from the Moon with samples and entered lunar orbit. After that, the probe completed docking with the orbiter on June 6 and transferred the samples. The orbiter spent 13 days in lunar orbit, waiting for a suitable opportunity to return to Earth.
Yang Wei, a research fellow at the Institute of Geology and Geophysics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, said the delivered samples would lead to new discoveries.
In May, China successfully launched the Long March 5 Y8 rocket carrying the Chang'e 6 unmanned space probe. On June 2, the probe landed on the far side of the moon in the largest lunar crater, the South Pole-Aitken Basin. The lunar mission will last 53 days and return about two kilograms of soil samples to Earth.
The module of the Chinese space probe Chang'e-6 captured footage from the far side of the Earth's natural satellite.
The first terrestrial spacecraft to land on the far side of the Moon was China's Chang'e-4. The landing took place on January 3, 2019. The surface was explored by the six-wheeled lunar rover Yutu-2, which worked on the Moon for three and a half years and traveled almost 1,300 meters.
