The ACC charged Wohl and his companies with 14 counts of securities fraud, including falsely representing investment risks, misrepresenting the amounts of assets managed, and falsely claiming in online advertisements on Craigslist that he, then 18, and his partner, then 27, had "over 35 years flipping homes". Wohl at one point claimed that he was managing 178 client accounts and combined total assets under management (AUM) of as much as $10,000,000, although the ACC said that he only had thirteen clients and an AUM of around $500,000. Wohl was forced by the ACC to pay $32,919 in restitution and $5,000 in penalties.[29][30][27]" TLDR: Wohl's attempts at trump sycophant status were apparently a reach for a pardon, Wohl is not real bright, and here we are.

Plutonium is not used as an industrial radiography source because: 1) it is a fissile material, and thus strictly controlled by the handful of governments that have the means to produce it. 2) it would be useless for imaging anything thicker than a piece of paper, because it emits alpha radiation and not gamma radiation. The story(s)* you're thinking of are about a Cobalt-60 source, CO-60 is produced when elemental Cobalt is exposed to a neutron flux in a nuclear reactor, it has the distinction of producing not one, but two gamma particles when it decays, both of which are extremely energetic, and therefore have great penetrating power, it's pretty much the nastiest form of radioactive waste we have. It's also useful for radiography, but should be strictly controlled, and housed in a lead shield when not exposed to take images. * incident There was also an incident in Mexico where some dudes hijacked a truck and stole the source, they only got Antioch of radiation sickness though.

MSDOS KAPITAL posted:Apparently they closed this loophole in 2013 but yeah most of them probably still do it anyway. They only did for a short time, about two months. This was the STOCK act if I recall. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STOCK_Act quote:The STOCK Act was modified on April 15, 2013, by S.716. This amendment modifies the online disclosure portion of the STOCK Act, so that some officials, but not the President, Vice President, Congress, or anyone running for Congress, can no longer file online and their records are no longer easily accessible to the public. In Section (a)2, the amendment specifically does not alter the online access for trades by the President, the Vice President, Congress, or those running for Congress.[11] The reasoning for this change was to prevent criminals from gaining access to the financial data and using it against affected persons. This bill was introduced by Senator Harry Reid on April 11, 2013. It was considered by the Senate and passed by unanimous consent. In the house, S.716 received only 14 seconds before being passed by unanimous consent.[ So what they did was hide their crime, pretending that this was about keeping congressional financial data away from people who would use it as leverage. Insider trading is still illegal, but the odds of basically everyone doing it anyway is super high. There's no one to bell the cat.

You know, now that I think about it, the Mueller allegations were the first time he tried to do something like this and it was obviously to try and derail the investigation.

Could these subsequent ridiculous 'press conferences' be an attempt to backpedal/retcon and develop some sort of context for claiming that the Mueller thing was just the first installment in an ongoing series of satire?

At this point I hope the FBI has what they need of Wohl, are looking into other more important stuff, and can circle back to him and others as needed. These subsequent ridiculous "press conferences" are for youtube/other web clicks, is all, I'd imagine. "Ongoing series of satire" would be good, and a close second, if they were that bright.

You need more context with those and similar accidents (like plutonium RTG powered light houses and generators the soviet union used all over remote parts of Siberia and then forgot about after the government collapsed). These things were found by people rummaging around for scrap metal. To them it looked like a great find of likely very expensive and thus very valuable scrap metal. Of course they'd take a screwdriver and more to it to try and see if there was really good stuff like copper in there. I doubt they walk around all day wonder "durr what if I put this in my mouth??" to every new thing they see, but they absolutely do walk around thinking "can I take thing apart and sell it so I can feed my family??" edit: Also a little spoonful of gunpowder isn't going to blow your leg off. People that reload ammo (like folks in poor countries) are familiar with it and can eyeball lighting just enough to see that it's still active and good. mod sassinator fucked around with this message at 01:37 on Oct 22, 2019 |

In a ruling earlier this month, a Manhattan federal court judge found that argument "repugnant to the nation’s governmental structure and constitutional values."" If SCOTUS doesn't punt this back to "repugnant to the nation’s governmental structure and constitutional values.", Roberts and SCOTUS might have to reevaluate NIxon vs. US. fully again. Not sure Roberts or the whole of SCOTUS is willing to do so. That the The Manhattan district attorney has quickly come to that agreement may say something.
