"From my point of view, today there are already sufficient grounds to assert that a multilateral policy ... no longer provides the external conditions we need for the favorable development of Belarus."In his opinion, Belarus' "top priority" should now be "strengthening political, economic and military relations with Russia, within the framework of the Union State." The MP also noted that the country should focus on its relationships with China, India, Iran, Turkey and Vietnam, to help the country become part of a "Eurasian macroregion."
"I have worked in the CDC and seen the politicization up close," he wrote in July. "It is a hotbed of progressive activity. It also has more than its share of idiots. And 90% of the people who work there should be named Karen. They desperately want to manage your life."
Crews' stint at the CDC appears to have occurred prior to his current role at NIAID. Various news reports in 2006 quote "Bill Crews" as the agency's spokesperson. According to three sources familiar with RedState's internal operations, it was generally known among the site's contributors that Crews worked in the federal government, though the specific agency wasn't as widely known. One source recalled speculating that Crews worked at a public health agency given the familiarity he appeared to have with the policies emanating from such agencies.
Even prior to the coronavirus pandemic, Crews used his perch at RedState to write about his employer, often disparagingly. In a pair of posts in 2014, he criticized NIH over alleged research misconduct and for its response to the Ebola outbreak (during which he also criticized Fauci specifically).
And the second hotbed is the eastern bank of the Euphrates River, where the illegal presence of the American troops is combined with the Americans promoting separatist trends, playing with the Kurdish guard in a very reckless manner, I would say.
Trump is expected to name his choice for the vacancy on Friday or Saturday, saying he plans to wait until Ginsburg's memorial services conclude.Might Trump be considering a bait-and-switch on the hysterical mob? Barbara Lagoa would tick TWO of their beloved 'victim' boxes. Also from The Hill:
Barrett was a favorite among conservatives in 2018 when Trump was mulling who to nominate to fill then-Justice Anthony Kennedy's seat before he ultimately went with Brett Kavanaugh. She remains popular among many Republican senators and conservative groups, and sources said she has an advantage having gone through the vetting process once before.
Trump said he plans to meet with at least a few of the candidates in person. The president said he "may" meet with Lagoa later this week when he is in South Florida.
"She has a lot of support," Trump said of Lagoa. "I don't know her, but I hear she's outstanding. And she's one of the people we're looking at."
Barrett, a former clerk for late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, was nominated by Trump to serve on the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in 2017. She was confirmed in a 55-43 vote by the Senate later that year. At the time, three Democratic senators supported her nomination: Joe Donnelly (Ind.), who subsequently lost his 2018 reelection bid, Tim Kaine (Va.) and Joe Manchin (W.Va.).
Lagoa, 52, serves on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit. Lagoa was the first Hispanic woman to serve on the Florida Supreme Court, a position to which she was nominated by GOP Gov. Ron DeSantis, a Trump ally.
