Top FDA official quits amid inquiry into ‘serious concerns’ over his conduct
The departure came the same day that a drugmaker connected to one of Tidmarsh’s former business associates filed a lawsuit alleging that he made “false and defamatory statements” during his time at the FDA. The lawsuit, brought by Aurinia Pharmaceuticals, alleges that Tidmarsh used his FDA position to pursue a “longstanding personal vendetta” against the chair of the company’s board of directors, Kevin Tang.

EU backs Czech Republic’s anti-communist crackdown — KKE exposes hypocrisy
A new escalation of the anti-communist offensive in the European Union is underway, this time with the Czech government preparing an operation to further criminalize the dissemination, support and defense of communist ideology — and the EU proving yet again its hypocrisy and tolerance for such reactionary measures. The alarming developments were raised in the European Parliament by Kostas Papadakis, MEP of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE), who exposed the Czech authorities’ plan to equate communist ideas with so-called “totalitarianism” and to apply harsh criminal sanctions.

Money, mercenaries and mayhem: How Israel and UAE are investing in regional chaos
In the flickering twilight of El-Fasher, a child clutches a soot-covered doll beside a pile of ashes where her home once stood. Mothers huddle in the corridors of the last functioning hospital, terrified that the next drone strike will claim the wounded they tend. Fathers dig graves with their hands, burying children in the courtyards of shattered schools. For 18 months, the city endured a siege that stripped it of food, water, and life. When its gates finally fell, it was not liberation that entered. It was annihilation. Witnesses speak of men dragged from their homes, women and children executed in the streets, hospitals shelled while terrified civilians sheltered inside. Human Rights Watch has documented scenes of mass killings, burning, and looting. The UN has described the assault as a "campaign of extermination". And behind the force that carried out this atrocity stands a patron whose fingerprints stain every front of Sudan’s war: the United Arab Emirates. If the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) are the visible executioners, the hand that directs them is Abu Dhabi’s. It has poured cash, weapons, and political cover into the war machine of RSF leader Mohammed Hamdan Dagalo - known as Hemeti - igniting a conflict that has torn Sudan apart.

The punishment for corruption is expulsion? That seems rather light.

I've only ever heard of China cracking down on corruption.

What's different about this crackdown on corruption compared to the others?

>>491963
This is the first time in nearly decade that China has launched such a large-scale crackdown on high-ranking military officers.Perhaps something happened within the Chinese Communist Party, or perhaps Xi is preparing something.

>>491959
War is possible, or it's a show of bolstering loyalty. No idea.

rest in piss!!!

That mother fucker is immortal.

I'm sad I went to 4pol by accident and found out there instead of here.

Did he ever spend a day in prison?

>>492099
Nope.

That's way too many data centers. Having 10 in a small city would already be weird.

I don't think even the average computer enthusiast really appreciates how fast a modern computer is. A top of the line personal computer would be considered a supercomputer in the 90's, like the ones used for rendering CGI for Jurassic Park, or performing nuclear simulations.

And they need that many of them? To brute force solutions to problems that probably aren't socially applicable, and only work 95% of the time at best?

Clearly there is something wrong here, and there is an incredible waste of resources.

Like after all that, can they even make a robot that will do my dishes? Even with a dish washing machine? I have yet to see that. They couldn't get self-driving cars to work after decades, so I think we're finally seeing this AI shit peak.

And you know what, I'm glad, because at first this AI stuff seemed like it would really might get to human levels of intelligence. I'm happy it's really just a toy.

And maybe I should be happy in the short term that this is where they're putting surplus value - into making computer chips that turn electricity into heat, instead of more weapons and war or something worse.

Israeli official Alexandrovich skips US court hearing on child sex charges
Judge denies lawyer’s claim that Israeli official could skip arraignment for child sex crime charges in Nevada.

A senior Israeli official accused of child sex crimes in the United States has failed to appear for a scheduled court hearing in his case, weeks after he returned to Israel, prompting concerns that he may have fled to avoid facing trial.

Tom Artiom Alexandrovich’s lawyer, David Chesnoff, told the court in Nevada on Wednesday that he told his client not to attend the hearing.

“He was instructed by me that he didn’t have to be here,” Chesnoff said.

However, Judge Barbara Schifalacqua was quick to shut down the suggestion, stressing that suspects released on bond like Alexandrovich have “to make every court appearance”.

“I’m looking at his bond documents that indicate the court appearance that he was ordered to appear at was today,” Schifalacqua told Chesnoff. “And so your oral – I guess – request without anything before the court to waive his appearance here today is hereby denied.”

Alexandrovich’s case has been stirring controversy and making international headlines since his arrest was announced earlier this month.

South Africa has a more functional justice system than the US.

https://x.com/iwasnevrhere_/status/1960870376516264280
In South Africa, Israeli national Gerhard Ackerman has been sentenced to 12 life terms plus 2,530 years for orchestrating a child prostitution and pornography ring.

This was industrialized abuse: rape, compelled rape, the mass production and sale of child sexual abuse material, operating a brothel for minors, and trafficking children to wealthy clients.

Ackerman’s crimes are not an anomaly but a mirror, reflecting a settler regime that shields its predators with political immunity, and exports its rot abroad.

Outside Tel Aviv’s protection racket, the mask comes off, the “chosen” predator receives no diplomatic cover in South Africa, unlike what we saw recently with Alexandrovich, a senior cyber warfare official from Israel’s National Cyber Directorate, quietly flown home within 48 hours of his arrest in Nevada for cyber-luring a minor during the Black Hat conference.

Ali Abunimah - On Thursday a grand jury in Nevada formally indicted senior Israeli cyber warfare operative Tom Alexandrovich for attempting to lure a child for rape, a felony carrying up to 10 years in prison. He’s currently hiding in “Israel.”

https://x.com/AliAbunimah/status/1982835394640285888
Ali Abunimah via Twitter: Senior "Israeli" cyberwarfare official Tom Alexandrovich has just been arraigned in a Nevada court on charges of attempting to lure a child for sex. He appeared via Zoom from "Israel" and pleaded not guilty. Jury trial set for March 9.

I wish I had some idea what the image describes. Sadly, OP didn't bother to translate for us.

>>490707
Milei is privatising the water (the first image just says "resources" but that is one concrete example I am aware of) of Argentina for example, I think he will leave some part for Argentinian companies but he has already sold them to Israeli/American companies, and he also doing this with electricity etc…
The second image is about lowering taxes for rural landowners vetoing the increment of pensions.
This doesn't appear on the images but I think he is also making a program funded publicly for Israeli to go to settle on Argentina (launched at the same time he destroys the welfare)

>>490708 (me)
Dark blue: Full control
Light blue: Partial concessions (or something)

Quote at the bottom:
"Argentinians should get used to the scarcity culture"

So apparently the chainsaw guy that just crashed the Argentinian economy and chained it to a massive foreign bailout loan as well as peddled three different cryptotoken scams in his presidency just got re-elected in a landslide. What the fuck is wrong with Argentina? Are they all retarded?

>>492056
Rigged election. We must all recognize Evo Morales as the legitimate interim president of Argentina.
