The FBI arrested the man who went viral last week for distributing what appeared to be military-grade “bionic shield” face masks to violent demonstrators in downtown Los Angeles. “ARRESTED: Alejandro Theodoro Orellana was arrested this morning by FBI Los Angeles on an allegation of Conspiracy to Commit Civil Disorders (18 USC 371) for distributing face shields to suspected rioters on Tuesday. We are moving quickly to identify and arrest those involved in organizing and/or supporting civil disorder in Los Angeles,” U.S. Attorney for the Central District of California Bill Essayli said in a statement. The suspect has been identified as Alejandro Orellana, an alleged member of the Brown Berets, a radical Chicano nationalist paramilitary organization with ties to far-left revolutionary groups. President Donald Trump spoke to reporters Wednesday night on worsening conditions in the Middle East regarding Iran’s nuclear program. The U.S. authorized evacuations of dependents and non-essential personnel at several embassies and bases in the Middle East after Iran threatened attacks over the possible breakdown of negotiations with the U.S. over its nuclear program amid warnings by both Israel and the U.S. that Iran will not be allowed to develop a nuclear bomb. ...we’ve given notice to move out. And we’ll see what happens”…”They can’t have a nuclear weapon. Very simple. They can’t have a nuclear weapon. We’re not going to allow that.” Israel is ready to launch an operation into Iran, according to a report by CBS News. ...A senior diplomat in the region articulated the profound anxiety within diplomatic circles, telling The Washington Post, “We are watching and worried. We think it’s more serious than any other time in the past.” A new investigation by Peter Schweizer’s Government Accountability Institute (GAI) has revealed how the upcoming “No Kings” “nationwide day of defiance” protest’s official partners have bagged $114.8 million since 2019 from the Arabella Advisors dark money network and how professional protest organizations use tax dollars as a force multiplier. The expected worldwide mobilization of protests against President Donald Trump this weekend will hardly be a spontaneous eruption. On the contrary, the tumult is a carefully plotted production organized by The Indivisible Project and financed by the progressive dark money network Arabella Advisors, which has perfected the mounting of made-to-order protests. Since 2019, Arabella has dumped more than $100 million into the coffers of the official “No Kings” protest partners—including the creator of the official protest song book. This “grassroots” “nationwide day of defiance” targets Trump and his “billionaire allies,” according to organizers. The Arabella network’s biggest benefactors are the left’s own billionaire heroes, including George Soros, Bill Gates, Hansjorg Wyss, Mark Zuckerberg, and Reid Hoffman. @patrician Bob watched a you tube video today where the guy said he is out of work and was offered $200 a day to go to New York and participate in the protests. Pallets of bricks will be provided. I believe it. I tell people that these protestors are paid and they tell me, no they're not. Clearly, they are being paid, maybe not all, but some of them. Every Saturday we eat lunch across the street from a Tesla dealership. For 13 weeks there were protests against Elon Musk. Then Elon left the government so I thought the demonstrators would be gone. No, now they are protesting about immigration. President Donald Trump has urged Iran’s remaining leadership to come to the negotiating table and make a deal because Israel has “the most lethal” American military equipment and more is on the way. Iranian hardliners had been brave in negotiations but they are “all [dead] now, and it will only get worse”, he said. President Trump told Iran there was still time to avert even worse destruction and death by coming to the negotiating table and signing a deal. “Iran must make a deal, before there is nothing left… As earlier reported, senior Iranian military leaders including Major General Hossein Salami, the commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and nuclear scientists had been eliminated by Israeli strikes. The former CIA analyst Asif Rahman, who admitted in January that he leaked classified information about Israel’s military response to Iran’s missile attacks on Oct. 1, 2024, was sentenced on Wednesday to 37 months in prison, the U.S. Justice Department said. The 34-year-old had faced up to 10 years in jail for the two counts—illegally retaining and transmitting classified national security information. “For months, this defendant betrayed the American people and the oaths he took upon entering his office by leaking some of our nation’s most closely held secrets,” stated John Eisenberg, assistant U.S. attorney general for national security. “Rahman removed the documents, photographed them and transmitted them to individuals he knew were not entitled to receive them,” it stated. “By Oct. 18, 2024, the documents appeared publicly on multiple social media platforms, complete with the classification markings.” Rahman had been a CIA employee since 2016 and carried a top-secret security clearance, including access to sensitive compartmented information, which refers to materials about intelligence sources and methods, and the analytical processes used to generate them. The leak forced Israel to delay a strike, according to federal prosecutors, though Israel took military action on Oct. 26 as part of a back-and-forth series of strikes. After pleading guilty in January, Rahman reportedly cooperated with authorities. In addition to the three years and a month in prison, he was sentenced to two years of probation and $50,000 in fines. https://www.jns.org/cia-analyst-who-leaked-israeli-plans-to-strike-iran-gets-37-months-in-prison/
