Crime: Russia Funnels Money to Trump through Inaugural Committee

Crime: Russia Funnels Money to Trump through Inaugural Committee

In Jan 2017, Russia funnels money to Trump through inaugural committee. Another guilty plea for Mueller in the Trump-Russian espionage case. On Aug 31, 2018, Republican lobbyist Samuel Patten pleaded guilty to being an unregistered foreign lobbyist, lying to the Senate, and funneling $50,000 in Russian money to Trump through the Presidential Inaugural Committee. Patten used an American straw purchaser to hide the Ukrainian’s money to the inaugural committee through a Cypriot bank account. Patten is now cooperating with Mueller and has agreed to testify. He signed a very robust cooperation agreement.

What does quantum tunneling imply about metaphysics?

2Science >

Without knowing if the cat is dead or alive, you can think of it as both dead and alive at the same time, or you can think of it as potential. The cat is potentially dead or alive. If both at the same time, maybe the multiverse exists.

What is Schrödinger’s Cat and why is it important?

3Critical Thinking >

Ownership is a social construct: Inside the simple fence, a few individuals enjoy security and resources, while outside, others beg for sustenance. This stark contrast highlights the early origins of resource disparity and the social constructs surrounding ownership.

Is the idea of ownership a real thing?

Emotional Resilience
TAKE-AWAY: Emotional resilience is about developing the ability to withstand and adapt to life’s challenges, setbacks, and disappointments. According to Stoic thought, our emotional reactions stem primarily from our beliefs, judgments, and thoughts about events, rather than the events themselves. By managing your emotions more effectively, you can minimize the negative impact of adversity.
