Snippet of Article: "...November 7, there was a hitch. Adams, who continued to pledge his full cooperation, told the FBI that he couldn't remember the code....on November 5, Adams had gotten wind of the investigation into his finances after the FBI raided one of his associates. When he heard this, he changed his personal cell phone passcode, increasing its length from four digits to six.
Unfortunately, Adams told the FBI, he couldn't remember this new password he had set just two days before. And so the pristinely preserved personal phone was locked and without a key. ...As part of its investigation, the FBI asked if one of his staffers would speak to them in a voluntary interview. The woman agreed, and she then "falsely denied the criminal conduct of herself and ADAMS," says the indictment.
But the most interesting bit was her behavior. In the middle of the interview, the staffer left to use the bathroom "and, while there, deleted the encrypted messaging applications she had used to communicate with ADAMS, the Promoter, the Turkish Official, the Airline Manager, and others."

Article Title: Kamala Harris’ $25K homebuyer grant plan is an ‘equity’ giveaway in disguise
Snippet of Article: "...the devil is in the details, and the media are asking no questions.
The biggest question is whether Harris as president would help all first-time homebuyers, regardless of their race — or target the help to achieve racial equity, as her past actions suggest.
Harris has a long track record of promising $25,000 in down-payment help, but her goal was never to help all first-time homebuyers.
Instead she insisted she aimed to close the home ownership gap between black and white families. ...In one, she claimed the $25,000 down-payment help would be offered to “first-time homebuyers” — adding that “first-generation homeowners” will get “more generous support.”
Of course, no president can offer $25,000 to homebuyers.
That’s the responsibility of Congress, which controls the nation’s purse strings.
So it’s not Harris’ campaign website but the Downpayment Toward Equity Act, the legislation backed by Harris-Biden and sponsored in the House by Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) and in the Senate by Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.) that spells out who is actually eligible."
