Interesting timing on this CBS 60 minutes report on Havana Syndrome investigation

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/5-year-havana-syndrome-investigation-finds-new-evidence-of-who-might-be-responsible-60-minutes/

The story came out after the CNN "debate".

A retired Army lieutenant colonel who led the Pentagon investigation into these incidents, Lt. Col. Greg Edgreen, told 60 Minutes he is confident that Russia is behind these attacks, and that they are part of a worldwide campaign to neutralize U.S. officials.


Joe Biden is a US official that Russia maybe, just maybe, would like to attack.

Putin's puppet has colluded and is still colluding with Russia. So are members of the GOP in congress who, a few years ago, went to Russia on the 4th of July.

"If my mother had seen what I saw, she would say, 'It's the Russians, stupid,'" Edgreen told 60 Minutes.


Did anybody on team Biden sweep (Hell team America, because POTUS) the studio before he took the stage? What are the preparations taken to protect the POTUS from enemy attacks?

Here's another story that makes me wonder...

"Harris trip to Vietnam delayed after report of possible "Havana Syndrome" incident in Hanoi

Vice President Kamala Harris and her delegation delayed their departure from Singapore to Hanoi, Vietnam, Tuesday, after they were made aware of an "anomalous health incident" in Hanoi.

A senior State Department official told CBS News the reported incident that delayed the vice president's trip to Hanoi is consistent with previous reported cases of "Havana Syndrome" in Cuba and around the world. It was serious: at least one official had to be removed by medevac over the weekend. This was not the first reported instance of "Havana Syndrome" in Vietnam, the official said.

"Earlier this evening, the Vice President's traveling delegation was delayed from departing Singapore because the Vice President's office was made aware of a report of a recent possible anomalous health incident in Hanoi, Vietnam," the State Department said in a statement. "After careful assessment, the decision was made to continue with the Vice President's trip."


So does a careful assessment by some peoples in the State Department take place before important events involving the President and Vice President.


I am also just learning of Unit 29155. Apologies to those ahead of me on this. I am a slow reader.

I knew about it but the story had a good deal of new info. Yes, I think it’s Putin, too.

I did not know about the VP Harris incident, and thanks for your additional research on that.

The people subjected to it described it as disabling. This is very serious and needs to be stopped.

If readers can go back and watch it, I highly recommend it. I might watch it a second time.

I didn't know about the Harris incident either until I got the "makes me wonder" itch.

4. Olivia Troye, adviser to Vice President Mike Pence, told 60 Minutes she fell ill in 2019

For the first time Sunday night, Homeland Security officials spoke on camera about being overcome with symptoms similar to the "Havana Syndrome" reported by American diplomats in foreign countries since 2016. The high-ranking officials said they suffered unexplained vertigo, confusion and memory loss while on White House grounds and in their Washington homes.


Olivia Troye was a Homeland Security and counterterrorism adviser to Vice President Mike Pence. Trump was going to murder Pence on Jan. 6.

Miles Taylor, former chief of staff of Homeland Security during the Trump administration, had a similar experience in his D.C. home.


"What was really strange about it is, I went to the window, opened up my window, looked down at the street. And keep in mind, Scott, this is probably 3-- 3:30 in the morning and I see a white van," Taylor told Pelley. "And the van's brake lights turned on, and it pulled off and it sped away."


Were there white vans outside of CNN?
WTF is going on here.

"If my mother had seen what I saw, she would say, 'It's the Russians, stupid,'" Edgreen told 60 Minutes.

5. I seem to remember a story about an attack on Mueller that he was also a target with this brain scrambling.

He hasn’t spoken publicly since his ‘stroke’. Anyone else remember this?

7. I posted previously that there may exist rapid burst microwave guns used as weapons.

My thought is that the gun can be aimed at someone in a public place. The burst of microwaves might be responsible for the "noise" which some of the reported victims experienced. Of course, the "noise" is internal to their brain and neurological system. I fear the Russians may have such weapons and may be shooting rapid bursts of microwaves at targets who are U.S. officials.
