Submitted by Anonymous on Tue, 09/13/2022 - 13:33

How similar is Gov. Ron DeSantis’ cover-up of the felony forgeries of Chief of Special Prosecutions (Fl 20th Judicial Circuit), Anthony Kunasek, Esq. and State's Attorney Amira Fox to Watergate?  Especially in light of the Governor's suspension of State Attorney Andrew Warren for simply exercising prosecutorial discretion. Affidavit filed in Warren v. DeSantis,  USDC N.D.

Submitted by Anonymous on Wed, 01/27/2021 - 13:31

Chad became the first country to officially seek debt reduction under a G20-established coronavirus response process. In the fall, the G20 approved the “Common Framework for Debt Treatment beyond the Debt Service Suspension Initiative.” Up to 73 of the world’s poorest countries could seek support under the mechanism."This is the first test of the G20 debt reduction process and the process must deliver serious relief for Chad," stated Eric LeCompte, the Executive Director of the religious development group Jubilee USA Network.
