Hackers threatened to release 250 gigabytes of confidential Metropolitan Police Department files unless Washington, D.C., officials pay a $4 million ransom, the DCist reported Tuesday.
The Russian-speaking hackers are part of a group known as Babuk, which allegedly posted 20 Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) officers’ personnel files after stealing 250 gigabytes of internal data, the DCist reported. Babuk said negotiations with officials “reached a dead end” and reportedly posted chat logs where officials offered $100,000 to the group.
“The amount we were offered does not suit us… if during tomorrow they do not raise the price, we will release all the data,” Babuk posted on its website, according to the DCist.

Archbishop Cordileone: I Had ‘Conversations’ With Pro-Abortion Pelosi About Holy Communion
San Francisco Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone has had “conversations” with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi about abstaining from receiving Holy Communion at mass as a pro-abortion Catholic, the archbishop told the Daily Caller News Foundation (DCNF) in an interview.
Cordileone discussed his new document in which he warned pro-abortion Catholics against receiving communion, as well as the implications of high profile Catholics publicly supporting abortion during an interview with the Daily Caller News Foundation’s Mary Margaret Olohan.
“Absolutely not,” Cordileone said regarding whether high profile Catholics can support abortion in good conscience.

With Democrats in control of Congress and Joe Biden in the White House, Republicans are battling multiple fronts to uphold the Constitution.
And conservatives just secured a massive victory at the U.S. Supreme Court regarding free speech.
The Supreme Court ruled in an 8-1 decision that a Georgia college’s speech code policy violated the First Amendment and that a student who was harmed by the policy can seek damages.
Justice Clarence Thomas issued the opinion of the court, writing that nominal damages claims are enough to establish standing to sue for a constitutional violation.
