Bitcoin is trading at $80,000. This after the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) sanctioned Tehran-based cryptocurrency exchange BitBank on Sept. 17, alleging the platform moved hundreds of millions of dollars in bitcoin to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). The muted recovering price action around BTC USD raises the central question this article addresses: how does a sanctions action tied to a major geopolitical flashpoint and a U.S.-designated terrorist organization square with an apparently limited Bitcoin market reaction? Treasury also said BitBank processed payments collected from ships buying passage through the Strait of Hormuz, one of…

Two days before Christmas, a 21-year-old Milan told his mom he was headed toward America. With dreams of working in Hollywood as an animal handler and $100 from his dad tucked into his sock, the native of rural Mexican town Culiacán spent weeks trying to penetrate the border at Tijuana. “It’s almost like an animal in the zoo against the wall, back and forth, back and forth,” he recalled in a 2019 interview with DailyMailTV. “Many times, I let the immigration catch me, so I can eat, because the Mexican police won’t feed you, but the Americans do.

All lieutenants are bad, to paraphrase a famous axiom, and that includes officers on every police force, everywhere – at least, this is the premise of the Bad Lieutenant films. Not a franchise, not an original film and its remakes, but rather a secret, third thing, Abel Ferrara’s 1992 Bad Lieutenant, with Harvey Keitel; Werner Herzog’s 2009 Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans, and now Takashi Miike’s Bad Lieutenant: Tokyo, with Shun Oguri, are more like variations on a theme. In all three films, a corrupt and guilt-stricken cop, plagued by his demons and intoxicated by his state-supplied power and many other substances besides, weathers the twin crucibles of a gruesome…

“A calamity ordained by Heaven may be escaped; A calamity ordained by oneself is inescapable.” So warns Shujing, the ancient Chinese Book of Documents. If only Mao Zedong had heeded this call to humility. Despite a long history of civil strife, conflict brought by foreign powers, and countless natural disasters, the worst of China’s sufferings were self-inflicted wounds. Mao’s regime took power in October of 1949, and he unleashed too many horrors to capture in a brief essay. The policies of his poorly named Great Leap Forward led directly to the deaths of 36 million people. The long shadow of its…

Chelsea boss Xabi Alonso conceded “everything was disappointing” after his side suffered a 3-0 defeat at Brentford tonight. Chelsea were arguably the better side in the first half but capitulated once Jaidon Anthony nodded the home side ahead from a corner just after the hour mark. Igor Thiago scored his first goal of the season late on to make it 2-0 and Fabio Carvalho tapped in a third in injury time to complete an awful night for Alonso at the Gtech Community Stadium.
