According to several whispers, when Mollard goes to Russia (rather sooner than later, I’m told), he’s going to Kiev, not the Centre. That’s interesting! No doubt, HH would be there, which would mean that Mollard would have a photo-op with HH and Vladimir Sabodan, something that HH NEVER gave Fatso. If he’s on the way to Kiev, no doubt, he’d also meet with President Yanukovich… something that Fatso never got, either. Why Kiev? I’d say that one reason is that most of the OCA’s following are po-nashemu Hunkies, not Great Russians. If he’s going to Kiev, is he also going to see (and serve with) Fr Dmitri Sidor in Carpatho-Russia? Now, that’d be a coup! It would also be a way of HH seeing how loyal Mollard is. You see, that’d fuck things up for the OCA with the Uniates… and Lyonyo and Jillions (amongst others) have a rather cosy little arrangement with them, don’t they (don’t forget, Jillions was their bought-n’-paid-for “house nigger”… an “Uncle Tom” if there ever was such)?
Here’s a fly in the ointment. Mollard’s asking people to accompany him, but he’s not funding them, so people are turning him down. That means that it’s not far in the future, and people can’t raise the valuta in the time given. Hmm… that means several things. Firstly, there’s no money in the OCA cookie jar… no surprise, Valerie Ringa said as much. Secondly, the Centre is only fronting Mollard a certain amount of cash, but Mollard (or someone else in Syosset, probably, Lyonyo, Jillions, and/or Tosi) wants a larger delegation to go. Thirdly, unlike Fatso, who sucked up to the Inside the Beltway crowd in the District, he doesn’t have access to outside cash from the usual cast of suspects. Ergo, people are saying, “No. I don’t have the gelt. I can’t raise it that fast. No way, no how”.
We’ll have to see, won’t we, kids. Remember… you heard it first HERE. As per usual, Lyonyo, Jillions, and Hatfield want to keep you in the dark. Reflect on that…

______________________________
On Monday, the White House shall announce the appointment of an envoy to close the Guantánamo Bay Detention Facility. Clifford Sloan, a Washington lawyer and a close confidant of US Secretary of State John Kerry, will have the assignment of overseeing the closure of the notorious detention facility. Media reports stated that Mr Sloan’s appointment would reopen the Office of Guantánamo Closure, closed in January 2013. In a statement disclosing the forthcoming appointment, Secretary of State Kerry said he was grateful for Mr Sloan’s “willingness to take on this challenge”. Amongst the issues Mr Sloan will address is the fate of low-level detainees from countries with security problems.
Now, there are 166 detainees at Guantánamo. 86 of them, including 56 from Yemen, are cleared for transfer providing certain conditions are met. In February, Guantánamo prisoners started a hunger strike protesting long-term illegal detention and abuse from prison guards. Last month, President Obama vowed again to close the prison. President Obama spoke about the closure of the notorious prison for the first time in 2009. Then, his efforts to transfer detainees to American prisons and to try some of the inmates in the civilian justice system stumbled over fierce resistance from both parties in Congress.

Editor’s Note:
This is good news, indeed. It means that the Prez is ready to rumble with Know Nothing Republican chowderheads. What changed his mind? I dunno… nobody does. However, he’s doing the right thing, and that’s good enough for me. It’s time to end the lunatic “Global War on Terror“, in any case. It has no point, save to enrich the McMansion set. Does this mean that he’s given up on “bipartisanship?” God willing, it does. The Republicans are anti-patriotic greedsters who want to wreck the economy deliberately so that they can dismantle the New Deal. That’s the meat of the core, kids. They hate compassion… they hate cooperation… they love greed… they love money. Remember what the Church teaches, “The love of money is the root of all evil”… ‘nuff said.
