Gap Between Russia’s Dreams and Means Feeds Adventurism Abroad - The Wall Street Journal

The Wall Street Journal
MOSCOW—Russia’s elites think of themselves as heirs to the Soviet Union’s imperial glory. Problem is, they only possess the resources of a second-tier power. This fundamental conflict between aspirations and means—and between how Russia views itself and how it’s perceived by others—shapes President Vladimir Putin’s high-risk strategy in international affairs, from the Ukraine invasion to the Syria intervention to election interference in the U.S.

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, V. [1] JULIA BEATRICE KELEHER: The charges of wire fraud are known to be very broad and non-specific.This case has to be scrutinized for the signs of the politicization. To me, this whole affair smells strongly as being political and the retaliation on the part of Trump: to teach Rossello a lesson for his opposition and harsh words.

Exclusive: Ex-Puerto Rico Schools Chief Julia Keleher, Indicted in Corruption Probe, Previously Denied She Was Federal Target

Updated July 10, 8:50 p.m.
Julia Keleher, Puerto Rico’s former education secretary, was arrested Wednesday on charges that she participated in a conspiracy to steer millions of dollars in government contracts to unqualified, politically-connected organizations. Federal Bureau of Investigation agents arrested Keleher in Washington, D.C., where she was freed pending her surrender to officials in Puerto Rico within the week.
An indictment puts Keleher and five others — including the former head of the island’s health insurance administration and an executive with a major accounting firm — at the center of a conspiracy to illegally direct more than $15 million in federal funds through contracts to organizations with which prosecutors said the defendants had personal ties.
From 2017 until her resignation in April, Keleher led wide-scale education reform efforts in Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria shuttered the island’s schools. She was widely viewed as a controversial lightning rod for her push to adopt charter schools and private school vouchers, in addition to her decision to close hundreds of public schools on the island.
After stepping down, Keleher consistently painted herself as a heroic fighter against the island’s anti-reform forces. As recently as April, following local news reports that Keleher was under federal investigation, she denied the allegations. In an exclusive interview with The 74, Keleher claimed that she sounded the alarm on irregularities involving a contract, which she said was discovered during an internal audit.
