2…………> Judged To Prison: TN Judge

 

A former Davidson County, Tennessee judge Cason “Casey” Moreland, 61, of Smyrna, Tennessee, was sentenced to 44 months in prison, restitution of $18,000 and a forfeiture of $13,500 for obstruction of justice, witness tampering, and stealing money from an organization receiving federal funds.

According to admissions made in connection with Moreland’s plea agreement, in January 2017, the FBI began investigating whether Moreland solicited sexual favors in exchange for favorable judicial treatment while sitting as a General Sessions Court Judge in Nashville and Davidson County, Tennessee. Moreland admitted that in February 2017, he became aware that he was a target of an investigation and took steps to try to obstruct it.

Specifically, he devised a scheme to pay a material witness to sign a false affidavit recanting her previous statements, which implicated his criminal conduct in trading judicial favors for sex. He also devised a scheme to have drugs planted in the witness’s car, and then to have her stopped by police so that she would be arrested and her credibility would be destroyed.

3…………> Let’s Talk Nukes: Trump To Putin, Xi & Co

 

“I am certain that, at some time in the future, President Xi and I, together with President Putin of Russia, will start talking about a meaningful halt to what has become a major and uncontrollable Arms Race. The U.S. spent 716 Billion Dollars this year. Crazy!” President Trump predicted that he and his Russian and Chinese counterparts would talk about an end to what he described as an arms race “at some time in the future.”

“We have more money than anybody else by far. We’ll build it up until they come to their senses. When they do, then we’ll all be smart. And we’ll all stop. And by the way, not only stop, we’ll reduce, which I would love to do. But right now, they have not adhered to the agreement,” he concluded.

The comments follow a convening of leaders of the world’s 20 largest economies in Argentina where they addressed pressing global issues.

4…………> “We’ll Stop Fentanil”: China

 

“It is outrageous that Poisonous Synthetic Heroin Fentanyl comes pouring into the U.S. Postal System from China. We can, and must, END THIS NOW! The Senate should pass the STOP ACT – and firmly STOP this poison from killing our children and destroying our country. No more delay!”

President Trump tweeted after the G20 meeting.

“What he[Mr. Xi] will be doing to fentanyl could be a game changer for the United States and what fentanyl is doing to our country regarding killing people,” Mr. Trump said on Air Force One as he left Argentina. Under pressure from US officials, Mr. Xi agreed to label fentanyl a controlled substance, in what White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders labeled a “wonderful humanitarian gesture” that would see people illegally selling the drug to the US face “China’s maximum penalty under the law.”

Fentanyl, which also goes by the street names “China Girl” or “China White” is a powerful synthetic opioid, roughly 100 times more potent than morphine and 50 times stronger than heroin.

5…………> A Family Trouble: OPEC Cracks

 

“We don’t have great potential (in oil), we are very realistic. Our potential is gas,” Qatar’s Energy Minister Saad al-Kaabi said explained the decision fo his country for pulling out of the Opec oil producers’ cartel, just days before the group meets in Vienna.

The Gulf state, which joined Opec in 1961, said it would leave the cartel in January and would focus on gas production. Qatar, the world’s biggest exporter of liquefied natural gas, has been boycotted by some Arab neighbors over allegations that it funds terrorism.

Opec is expected to cut oil supply at this week’s meeting.
