How BTS and Its ARMY Could Change the Music Industry

By Rebecca Davis

It was just a year ago that BTS’ Love Yourself: Speak Yourself tour was selling out stadiums all over the world. Each night of the 20-date trek, which grossed $116 million, a total of nearly a million ticket buyers around the planet witnessed a thumping opening liturgy at the top of the K-pop band’s set in the form of the song “Dionysus.”

As flames shot up from the stage, seven figures emerged in supplicant white amid Greek columns and a long altar. Rapper RM (full name: Kim Nam-joon) led the way, twirling the staff of the titular mythical deity, as group mates Jin (Kim Seok-jin), SUGA (Min Yoon-gi), j-hope (Jung Ho-seok), Jimin (Park Ji-min), V (Kim Tae-hyung) and Jung Kook (Jeon Jung-kook) flanked him in a display of choreographed precision. The crowd, reaching peak pandemonium in a night full of deafening screams, made willing maenads and satyrs, transported by the band’s presence. An anthem about rebirth and self-discovery through the ecstatic collective experience of music was received as intended — as if from the gods.

Idol worship is by no means a new concept in pop music — remember John Lennon’s provocative statement in 1966 that the Beatles were “more popular than Jesus”? — but there’s something about BTS that turns fandom up to 11. The global brigade of BTS acolytes is collectively known by the acronym ARMY, short for Adorable Representative MC for Youth, a moniker chosen by Big Hit Entertainment, the company that launched the band. ARMY comprises the lion’s share of a Twitter audience that’s 29.2 million followers strong, more than triple that of any other K-pop group, and growing daily. BTS’ Instagram presence of 30.6 million followers (also rising rapidly), is trailed closely only by YG Entertainment’s Blackpink, at 29.3 million.

“It is because ARMY exists that we exist,” Jin says.

To understand the scope of BTS Inc.: An influential 2018 study by the Hyundai Research Institute estimated that the ripple effects from the boy band’s ecosystem contribute roughly $4.9 billion annually to South Korea’s GDP, on track to generate more value over 10 years than the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics. The study gauged that in 2017, one in 13 visitors to the country came for BTS-related pilgrimages. That ratio may soon be growing. Spotify has reported a 300% spike in new listeners to the group since the Aug. 21 release of “Dynamite,” BTS’ first all-English single.

The BTS boom has also driven Big Hit to launch an IPO in October projected to raise some $811 million. (Each BTS member will be awarded shares worth approximately $8 million.) Of Big Hit’s revenue in 2019, 97.4% was generated by BTS, including $130 million worth of T-shirts, cosmetics, dolls and other merchandise.

The numbers are no accident. The South Korean government began investing strategically in the arts and the digital economy to help steer the country out of the 1997 Asian financial crisis. On the heels of “Parasite” sweeping the Oscars, the worldwide success of BTS may be another sign to the West that Seoul might be the center of a new force in creative production.

Big Hit, and the K-pop music business in general, have proved just how much a band, and a company, can prosper through a direct-to-consumer relationship, driven by digital platforms and dedicated apps with lots of behind-the-scenes content that keeps fans emotionally involved. It’s engagement on a scale that no Western artist has ever achieved, despite decades of radio promotion and the best retail strategy.

For the global music industry, the band’s success has meant a serious rethink of how a record company — in BTS’ case, Sony Music’s Columbia Records, which distributes the group’s music in the U.S. (though the band is not signed to the label) — builds and maintains a fan base. You could almost look at it as a collaborative arrangement: As music is being made in real time, decision-makers and strategists at Big Hit and Columbia are taking in and processing the comments and views of ARMY and pivoting accordingly.

“It creates a self-sustaining engine that, eventually, becomes hits perpetuating more hits,” says Neil Jacobson, a former president of Geffen Records who runs Hallwood, a talent agency for producers and songwriters. “A label wants that fan connection happening all the time so that they can consistently release and promote music. But in the past, there had always been intermediaries that labels had to talk to in order to manifest exposure. Now, there is a mechanism for an artist to speak directly to their fans. That didn’t exist before, and it has turbocharged the process.”

It’s all led to this “Dynamite” moment: The single has sold nearly 700,000 adjusted song units since its release — good for a gold record certification by the RIAA. The song is quickly becoming the band’s biggest radio hit to date (without a featured artist, it’s worth noting), and represents a significant breakout beyond its core audience. After that, will Grammys follow?

“They check all the boxes,” says Jenna Andrews, the vocal producer on “Dynamite” who also serves as an executive at Sony’s Records label. “I’ve never seen anything like BTS in terms of singing and dancing. This is just an indication of what’s yet to come. They’re going to take over the world.”

Kathryn Lofton, Yale University professor of religious and American studies and author of the book “Consuming Religion,” says that the bond BTS has with its ARMY is different from the typical singer-fan connection because “BTS’ driving commitment is to their relationship to the fan group, to the manufacturing of their communal joy for you to participate in.” It’s why she views BTS as “a religious project; they are seeking to make a togetherness that you can’t stop wanting to be a part of.”

Lofton also makes a point of distinguishing ARMY from the groupies associated with Beatlemania. Sure, BTS fans know the hagiography and backstory of each member, but everything about the band’s output prioritizes the collective over the individual.

The band itself has certainly leaned into the comparison with the Fab Four. For instance, it re-created the iconic moment of the Beatles’ 1964 debut at the Ed Sullivan Theater last May on “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” — in a black-and-white segment that showed the K-pop band performing as mop tops in tailored suits.

But while John, Paul, George and Ringo had spotlight moments of their own, both within and outside the band — songs they wrote individually, causes they took up personally — with BTS, it’s all for one all the time. Unlike many other groups, the members share single, collective Twitter and Instagram accounts, and release even solo material through their shared channel. Accomplishments are never spoken of as belonging to any one group member but rather as the work of the team (and, of course, ARMY). In their videos, they often begin in solo shots but end up together.

This all strays from the typical tropes of Western boy bands including New Edition and ’N Sync, which have all proffered “star” frontmen. The thinking for decades had been that a record company would be lucky to have one breakout solo career among the bunch.

But BTS’ selfless approach didn’t happen randomly: The group was envisioned as a collective to heal the alienation that ails us in the digital age. Its name — “BTS” stands for Beyond the Scene — is an invitation to fans to join them offstage via almost daily video content featuring moments in their intimate if immaculately curated private lives on YouTube, Twitter and Big Hit app Weverse.

In 2011, Big Hit’s revenues from its then-main acts, Lim Jeong-hee and boy band 2AM, were plummeting. As the shadow of bankruptcy loomed, Bang Si-hyuk, now chairman, and Lenzo Yoon, global CEO, felt the company needed a total revamp. They stopped all normal work for months and called on employees to perform market research instead, seeking a new vision and formula.

Bang describes the conclusion they reached in a recent Harvard Business School case study of the firm written by Anita Elberse and Lizzy Woodham: “You would think that with the development of digital technology, people can come together more easily, but we found that it is actually more likely that people will feel more isolated. And so we need to find a way to help them, inspire them and heal them.”

Reflecting on the choice to develop a group that satiated this need, Yoon says in the study: “I think back then in 2011, with the conclusions we drew, we found the wild ginseng, as we say in Korea.”

On “Dynamite,” Big Hit worked with Columbia to further cultivate that ginseng. Pitched by Jacobson to label chairman Ron Perry, who guided and essentially A&R’d the song, worked to radio by Columbia executive VP and head of promotion Peter Gray (who has broken hits for Dua Lipa, Kelly Clarkson and Kings of Leon), and all overseen and informed by the years of management savvy of Big Hit, it’s the kind of artist development that was a music business calling card and that has lost its place in the fast-paced world of digital releases.

Radio exposure is not considered as impactful in Korea as it is in the U.S., notes RM, and so BTS — “maybe naively” — didn’t hit the ground in the U.S. thinking, ‘What can boost our airplay?’” the last time around. Still, RM notes that the band has “100% trust” in Columbia, Big Hit and the greater BTS community. “ARMY and the label are all trying their best,” he says, recounting how in the band’s early days, fans would send bouquets to radio DJs to get their songs on the air.

“Our goal is to try to show ourselves, expose ourselves to ARMY as much as possible,” adds Jin. “There are a lot of platforms now.”

In some ways, BTS’ ARMY has grown into its own force and brought the group along for the ride. In the world of K-pop, the expectation is that entertainers stay far away from politics, but as the genre has grown more global, it has begun to reach a transnational cohort to whom matters of social justice are top of mind.

When Variety broke the news on June 6 that BTS and Big Hit had donated $1 million to Black Lives Matter, BTS fans quickly flocked to #MatchAMillion through a link sent out by the fan charity Twitter account @OneInAnARMY. They hit the financial target in just 25 hours.

Erika Overton, a 40-year-old Georgia resident and one of the co-founders of the account, says of the experience: “It was one of the craziest nights I’ve ever seen. I was on Twitter all night. We were refreshing the page every couple of minutes, going, ‘Oh, my God …’” Witnessing ARMY’s U.S. battalion bring the message of Black Lives Matter to fans in other parts of the world who were unfamiliar with the movement was a “big educational moment that was really, really beautiful to see,” says Overton, who is African American.

What Overton saw was facilitated by networks of fan translators who also turn Big Hit’s Korean content into dozens of languages. Other ARMY groups provide counseling or tutoring services, invent themed recipes or write informational threads on everything from the history of the music industry and how charts work to Jungian philosophy, which deeply informs the BTS albums.

Some fan accounts have even become registered nonprofits, with dozens of administrators spread around the world putting in nearly full-time work on top of their day jobs.

In addition to Black Lives Matter, BTS this year donated $1 million to Crew Nation, a Live Nation campaign to support live entertainment personnel impacted by the coronavirus pandemic. And it has continued its campaign with UNICEF to end child violence. But the band members are reticent to take on the role of global activists. “I don’t consider ourselves as political,” says Suga. “We aren’t trying to send out some grandiose message. We would never see ARMY as a conduit for our voice or our opinion. ARMY speaks their own initiatives, and we always respect their opinions, as we respect any other person’s.”

RM, on the other hand, keeps the door open for a kind of apolitical politics based more on actions than words: “We are not political figures, but as they say, everything is political eventually. Even a pebble can be political.”

The scale of its influence is not something that the group takes lightly. “Our [‘Dynamite’] video has seen 80 million, almost 90 million views in just a day. In a way, that’s very weighty — and almost frightening,” RM told Variety the day after its debut, explaining that the balancing act is often one of how to juggle the burdens of being both role models and artists.

Some Korean scholars feel that BTS’ statement in support of BLM shows how ARMY is actually out ahead of Big Hit, spontaneously enacting its own initiatives to which the company must then respond. “Big Hit thinks they can create a company-dominated [approach to] fandom, but fans are agents doing only what they want, not what they don’t want,” says ethnomusicologist Kim Jungwon of Yonsei University in Seoul. For Kim, the fluidity of ARMY’s unplanned, collective responses “is the possible answer to BTS’ success.”

Candace Epps-Robertson, an ARMY member and assistant professor of rhetoric at the University of North Carolina, says the affirmational content of the group’s lyrics and videos may sound simple, but lay the groundwork for millions of fans to learn to engage critically with each other and develop a transcultural sense of global citizenship. “The message of ‘you, yourself, are enough, and you should love who you are and start with that — I think people miss how radical that can actually be,” she says. “We can’t overlook the power of that as an invitation to people to be part of this community.”

The Grammys, where BTS is eligible for record of the year, among other categories (nomination ballots for the 2021 awards, slated to air Jan. 31, went out on Sept. 28), provide a chance for the group to gain industry recognition as a mainstream contender, not just a K-pop act.

Asked why the Grammys matter so much to them, Suga seems to bristle a bit at the question. “I grew up watching American award shows, so obviously we all know and I know the importance of the Grammys,” he says. “It’s a dream anyone working in music has.”

RM says having the goal of a Grammy, an industry-voted award, “motivates us to work harder. As Suga said, if you are in music, the Grammy Awards are something that you cannot help but to look toward and set as an eventual goal.”

BTS’ global influence will soon collide with national duty, and a Grammy Award or three could help maintain its momentum. The band members all have to participate in Korea’s mandatory military service by the age of 28 — and four of them are within two years of that threshold. “Big Hit really wants to target the Grammys before [the members] go into the army,” says an industry source privy to the company’s marketing plans, adding that, from Big Hit’s perspective, it would be best for business if the boys all perform their service at the same time.

The group renewed its contract with Big Hit in 2018, which commits the members to another seven years with the firm, but the army service issue could knock off two years within that time span. A company statement ahead of Big Hit’s IPO shows that Jin, the oldest group member (he’ll be 28 in December), must conscript by 2022 even if he gets an extension of the draft deadline. The statement discloses that plans to prerecord content to be released over the course of any army tenure are being discussed.

South Korea officially changed its rules in July to allow draftees access to once-banned cellphones on weeknights and weekends, meaning BTS could theoretically continue some interaction with fans. However, the taking of photos, video or audio recordings remains prohibited. (Historically, most Korean celebs have fallen silent during their service.)

Soldiering aside, with the push from Big Hit’s IPO, multiple TV appearances — including an ongoing weeklong takeover of “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” — the chart success of “Dynamite” and growing Grammy buzz, BTS is poised to make some serious noise this fall, which is saying a lot for a group known to shake the decibel scale with a wave or a wink. But perhaps the most significant measure of its ascent is underscored by the frequent speculation of the band’s place in a new moment for the music industry.

“What would it mean not just to include the sound of Korea in the annals of world music, but to actually propose that the South Korean sound is the next chapter?” posits Yale’s Lofton. “What if BTS are actually the next Beatles?”

Morrissey and A. E. Housman

From Morrissey’s Autobiography:

“New air is discovered in the words of A. E. Housman, scholar-poet, vulnerable and complex […] who was said to be a complete mystery even to those who knew him.[…] He shunned the world and he lived a solitary existence of monastic pain, unconnected to others. The unresolved heart worked against him in life, but it connected him to the world of poetry, where he allowed (in)complete strangers under his skin. In younger years he had suffered from the unrequited love of Moses Jackson, the pain of which was so severe that it doomed Housman for the rest of time. All of his work would be governed by this loss, as if life could only ever offer once chance of happiness (and perhaps, for every shade and persuasion, it does?) […] The pain done to Housman allowed him to rise above the mediocre and to find the words that most of us need help in order to say. The price paid by Housman was a life alone; the righteous rhymer enduring each year unloved and unable to love. […] Now snugly in eternity, Housman still occupied my mind. His best moments were in Art, and not in the cut and thrust of human relationships. Yet he said more about human relationships than those who managed to feast on them. You see, you can’t have it both ways.”

Housman’s name comes up again when Morrissey talks about the press vilifying him in the 90s after the Joyce trial and he uses one of his poems to reflect on the tribulations he was experiencing at the time:

“The thoughts of others Were light and fleeting, Of lovers’ meeting Or luck or fame. Mine were of trouble, And mine were steady; So I was ready When trouble came.”

When I wrote about the role of Elizabeth Smart’s writing on Morrissey’s lyricism, I said that I thought Morrissey used her novella By Grand Central Station I Sat Down And Wept not just as creative inspiration, but also as a way to relate to and to sublimate his feelings towards his sexuality in general and Johnny in particular. To put it shortly, I think he did the same with Housman but, as much as he praised his poetic output, he probably related to him on a more personal level than he did with Smart, and for two simple reasons: 1) Housman was a queer man 2) He harboured an unrequited love for his best friend Even though he apparently found out about his work before meeting Johnny, I feel like this must have hit even closer to home a few years later. (Also, the thing that slightly freaks me out is the fact that Housman and Jackson first met in 1877 and parted company in 1886, while Morrissey and Johnny first met in 1978 and The Smiths broke up in 1987 – almost exactly 100 years later.)

But who exactly was A. E. Housman?

According to Wikipedia, he was “an English classical scholar and poet, best known to the general public for his cycle of poems A Shropshire Lad.

After winning an open scholarship to Oxford, he went there to study classics and this is where he first met Moses John Jackson, with whom he formed a strong friendship.

He failed his Finals and had to resit the exam but, though some attribute Housman's unexpected performance in his exams directly to his unrequited feelings for Jackson, most biographers adduce more obvious causes. Namely, Housman was indifferent to philosophy and overconfident in his exceptional gifts, and he spent too much time with his friends.

After Oxford, Jackson went to work as a clerk in the Patent Office in London and arranged a job there for Housman too. The two shared a flat with Jackson's brother Adalbert until Housman moved to lodgings of his own, probably after Jackson responded to a declaration of love by telling Housman that he could not reciprocate his feelings.

Two years later, Jackson moved to India, placing more distance between himself and Housman.

When he returned briefly to England to marry, Housman was not invited to the wedding and knew nothing about it until the couple had left the country.”

De Amicitia (of Friendship)

“In 1942, Housman's brother Laurence deposited an essay entitled “A. E. Housman's ‘De Amicitia’” in the British Library, with the proviso that it was not to be published for 25 years.

The essay discussed A. E. Housman's homosexuality and his love for Moses Jackson.

Despite the conservative nature of the times and his own caution in public life, Housman was quite open in his poetry, and especially in A Shropshire Lad, about his deeper sympathies.

Poem XXX of that sequence, for instance, speaks of how ‘Fear contended with desire’: ‘Others, I am not the first, / Have willed more mischief than they durst’.

In More Poems, he buries his love for Moses Jackson in the very act of commemorating it, as his feelings of love are not reciprocated and must be carried unfulfilled to the grave.

His poem ‘Oh who is that young sinner with the handcuffs on his wrists?’, written after the trial of Oscar Wilde, addressed more general attitudes towards homosexuals.

In the poem the prisoner is suffering ‘for the colour of his hair’, a natural quality that, in a coded reference to homosexuality, is reviled as ‘nameless and abominable’.”

I read the essay and here are the parts I found to be the most interesting:

“… his deepest friendships were with men, [that] those friendships caused him trouble and grief and [that] – in one instance at least – he gave a far greater devotion than he ever received in return. In that greatest of all his friendships (and probably in most of the others), there was no response in kind. Almost every friendship that he formed was destined to be a lonely one – the emotional element which went to the making of them his alone.”

He then goes on to talk in more detail about the relationship between Housman and Jackson:

“My brother and Moses Jackson first met when in 1877 they both went up to St. John’s college Oxford with scholarships. Their association remained unbroken for a period of four years, for the last two of which (together with A. W. Pollard) they shared lodgings in St. Giles. Their association was resumed when […] my brother became a Civil servant at H. M.’s Patent Office, where Jackson was already in a position of somewhat higher standing. From 1882 till somewhere about 1885 they shared lodgings, together with Jackson’s younger brother Adalbert, in Talbot Road Bayswater. In 1885 or 1886 they parted company and my brother went to live by himself at Byron Cottage Highgate. After that they met daily at the Patent Office, and as a rule lunched together, until Jackson in December 1887 sailed for India, where he remained […] for the greater part of his life. On leaving India he took up another post of a similar kind in British Columbia, where he died in 1923.”

“The shared lodging in Bayswater ended in an incident of which I do not know the full explanation. Quite suddenly, and without a word of warning, my brother, after something which must have been of the nature of a quarrel, disappeared for a week; and an anxious letter from Jackson came to his father to say that he did not know what had become of him. […] After a week’s absence he returned, but only for a short time; probably the strain of such close association with a friend who could not respond with the same warmth of feeling had proven too much for him; and he found it better to part. […] But though there was disagreement, there was no final parting […]; they remained firm friends through life, but always with a difference.”

He then goes on to talk about the diaries he kept:

“In those diaries nothing whatever was entered of a personal character except what had to do with his association with his friend Jackson. […] But hardly once is his name given - ‘Jackson’ never; once or twice the abbreviation ‘Mo’ for Moses. It is nearly always ‘he’ and nothing else.”

“In the diary of 1889, nothing is recorded for six months; the friends do not correspond. In October of that year Jackson returned to England, for a reason which [my brother], it would seem, did not know until a month after the event. […] He and Jackson only met twice during the latter’s stay in England from October to December; once in the company of others and only once alone. At the time of their meeting – only three weeks before Jackson’s marriage – it is evident he’d not been told of it.”

“When Jackson had resigned his Indian appointment, and was on his way to take up another at Vancouver in British Columbia, he stayed in England for the last time; and it was at the house of their mutual friend A. W. Pollard, that the two had their final meeting. There was no estrangement; all three were, in Pollard’s account of that meeting, ‘very youthful and light-hearted’. For my brother the remedy of age had come to ease the old trouble which had left on his life so deep a mark.”

“Nobody reading these diaries can have any doubt about the emotional nature of my brother’s love for Jackson; it was deep and lasting, and it caused him great unhappiness. Even in memory the emotion of it remained. Only two years before his death, I had proof of it. In his rooms at Trinity College Cambridge, two portraits hung near together over the fireplace – the one a portrait taken in youth, the other in late middle-age. The youthful one, I learned later, was of Adalbert [Jackson’s younger brother]. I asked him, when I was staying with him two years before his death, whose was the other. In a strangely moved voice he answered: ‘That was my friend Jackson, the man who had more influence on my life than anyone else.”

Does any of this sound at all familiar? No? Well…

“When I sleep with that picture of you Framed beside my bed Oh, it’s childish and it’s silly But I think it’s you in my room By the bed Yes, I told you it was silly.” (Late Night, Maudlin Street)

I’m gonna end this with some of my fave Housman’s poems, which I also think may apply to the Morrissey-Marr relationship:

More Poems

XII I promise nothing: friends will part; All things may end, for all began; And truth and singleness of heart Are mortal even as is man.

But this unlucky love should last When answered passions thin to air; Eternal fate so deep has cast Its sure foundation of despair.

XXIV Stone, steel, dominions pass, Faith too, no wonder; So leave alone the grass That I am under.

All knots that lovers tie Are tied to sever; Here shall your sweetheart lie Untrue for ever.

XXVIII

He, standing hushed, a pace or two apart, Among the bluebells of the listless plain, Thinks, and remembers how he cleansed his heart And washed his hands in innocence in vain.

XXX Shake hands, we shall never be friends, all’s over; I only vex you the more I try. All’s wrong that ever I’ve done or said, And nought to help it in this dull head: Shake hands, here’s luck, good-bye.

But if you come to a road where danger Or guilt or anguish or shame’s to share, Be good to the lad that loves you true And the soul that was born to die for you, And whistle and I’ll be there.

XXXI Because I liked you better Than suits a man to say, It irked you, and I promised To throw the thought away.

To put the world between us We parted, stiff and dry; ‘Good-bye’, said you, ‘forget me’. ‘I will, no fear’, said I.

If here, where clover whitens The dead man’s knoll, you pass, And no tall flower to meet you Starts in the trefoiled grass,

Halt by the headstone naming The heart no longer stirred, And say the lad that loved you Was one that kept his word.

XXXVII I did not lose my heart in summer’s even, When roses to the moonrise burst apart; When plumes were under heel and lead was flying, In blood and smoke and flame I lost my heart.

I lost it to a soldier and a foeman, A chap that did not kill me, but he tried; That took the sabre straight and took it striking And laughed and kissed my hand to me and died.

XL Farewell to a name and a number Recalled again To darkness and silence and slumber In blood and pain.

So ceases and turns to the thing He was born to be A soldier cheap to the King And dear to me;

So smothers in blood the burning And flaming flight Of valour and truth returning To dust and night.

Additional Poems

II Oh were and I together, Shipmates on the fleeted main, Sailing through the summer weather To the spoil of France or Spain.

Oh were he and I together, Locking hands and taking leave, Low upon the trampled heather In the battle lost at eve.

Now are he and I asunder And asunder to remain; Kingdoms are for others’ plunder, And content for other slain.

VI Ask me no more, for fear I should reply; Others have held their tongues, and so can I; Hundreds have died, and told no tale before: Ask me no more, for fear I should reply -

How one was true and one was clean of stain And one was braver than the heavens are high, And one was fond of me: and all are slain. Ask me no more, for fear I should reply.

VII He would not stay for me; and who can wonder? He would not stay for me to stand and gaze. I shook his hand and tore my heart in sunder And went with half my life about my ways.

Exile: Data Dump Shows More Russian Political Meddling

A prominent exiled Russian opposition figure says recently leaked documents show Russian meddling in U.S. affairs was more sophisticated, ambitious and potentially more dire than the social media influence campaigns during the 2016 election. First reported by NBC, the documents involve Kremlin-linked oligarch Yevgeny Prigozhin and other figures whom special prosecutor Robert Mueller has already indicted for interfering in the 2016 U.S. presidential election. Released by Mikhail Khodorkovsky's London-based Dossier Center, the latest communications reveal a 2018 plot to radicalize African-Americans, stoke violence and train politically disaffected ethnic minorities to carry out domestic terror attacks ahead of the 2020 U.S. elections. Khodorkovsky, a self-exiled Russian oligarch-turned-Kremlin opponent, told VOA's Russian service in a Skype interview that the material suggests a drastic escalation of Russian meddling in U.S. affairs. "From a legal point of view, there are sufficient grounds to declare an investigation" of an international criminal conspiracy, Khodorkovsky said. "If I were an American citizen, I would say that my security rights are now being neglected." No Kremlin response The documents have not been forensically assessed by an independent third party, though the Dossier Center's own analysis seems to verify their authenticity. Widely published reports on the material by major Russian news outlets such as Novaya Gazeta have yet to prompt a Kremlin response. NBC News contributor Frank Figliuzzi, a former assistant director of counterintelligence at the FBI who reviewed the documents, said they may represent nothing more than "an amateurish thought experiment." Even so, he said, "the fact that these people are talking about doing this should disturb Americans of all stripes." Prigozhin, known as "Putin's Chef" for catering presidential events and sometimes personally waiting on high-profile Kremlin figures and guests, has personally known Russian President Vladimir Putin since his days as a deputy mayor of St. Petersburg in the early 1990s. He has been indicted by U.S. officials for funding the St. Petersburg-based "troll factory" that used social media to sow discord in the U.S. political system during the 2016 presidential election campaign. He also operates Wagner, a private security contracting firm whose paramilitary operations in Central African Republic and Sudan are well-documented. According to the latest communications, Prigozhin's associates thought the election of President Donald Trump had "deepened conflicts in American society" and set out to exploit that discord by recruiting African-Americans to be sent to guerrilla-combat training camps in Africa. Once trained, the Americans would be returned to the U.S. to carry out terror attacks and campaign for a pan-African state throughout the southern United States. Although there is no evidence of efforts to enact the plan, Russia has tried to leverage U.S. racial tensions before. An October 2017 report to the Senate Intelligence Committee profiled Russian influence campaigns that undertook extraordinary measures to target African-Americans. The report was commissioned by a bipartisan group of legislators and produced by the Texas-based cybersecurity firm New Knowledge in partnership with researchers at Columbia University and Canfield Research LLC. It said "the most prolific [troll factory] efforts on Facebook and Instagram specifically targeted black American communities and appear to have been focused on developing black audiences and recruiting black Americans as assets." @blackstagram In some cases, social media ads were programmed to target users interested in topics such as the Black Panther Party, Louis Farrakhan, Malcolm X and the Weather Underground. Among the most popular Russian Instagram accounts was @blackstagram, which had over 300,000 followers. One Russian social media campaign coincided with the 2017 riots in Ferguson, Mo., over the fatal police shooting of a young black man by a white officer. The Senate report says Russian operatives paid unwitting U.S. personal trainers to run self-defense classes marketed to African-Americans in an apparent attempt to stoke fear and gather contact details of Americans potentially susceptible to their propaganda. In his interview with VOA, Khodorkovsky acknowledged that the ideas proposed in the Dossier Center documents sound far-fetched, but said they are consistent with actions by Prigozhin's employees at the troll factory. He added that the oligarch's well-funded paramilitary groups on the ground in Africa, Syria, Ukraine and Venezuela possess the necessary skills to guide such an enterprise. "When I first saw these documents, to be honest, my first reaction was laughter," he said, adding that he would have disregarded them if he had not "been familiar with a whole range of other documents related to operations on the African continent," and other Prigozhin-backed campaigns in Ukraine, Syria and the U.S. "But since I saw them, and I saw these totally delusional, phantasmagoric things turn into real life, I passed from laughter to real recognition and reflection," he said. "And real reflection tells us that the infrastructure for this kind of project is, in fact, already in place. And as we know, American society is absolutely not immune to such a project." Khodorkovsky says he believes Prigozhin's efforts to undermine U.S. society are "without a doubt an instrument of the Kremlin, the instrument of Vladimir Putin personally." The outsourcing of dirty tactics to a third party shields Russian intelligence and military personnel from risk and gives Kremlin officials plausible deniability. "Putin says it without blinking: 'It's not us, it's some private traders,' " he told VOA. Life in danger Khodorkovsky persists in his efforts to expose Russian wrongdoing in spite of considerable personal risks. Last fall he told Moscow-based Daily Beast reporter Anna Nemstova he has been living under a kill order. In January, three Russian journalists hired by Khodorkovsky's now-defunct Investigation Control Center were fatally shot while reporting on activities of Prigozhin's mercenaries in Central African Republic. The Russian Foreign Ministry has said the journalists were killed in a botched robbery attempt. This story originated in VOA's Russian service. from Blogger http://bit.ly/2JTvEP8 via IFTTT

The CDC estimates that roughly 1 million cases of Salmonella poisoning in the US are caused by contaminated food. Resulting in 19,000 hospitalizations and 380 deaths.

Salmonella Symptoms

Most people who contract Salmonella poisoning develop diarrhea, fever and abdominal cramps 12 to 72 hours after infection. Illness lingers typically 4 to 7 days, and most people recover without treatment. Sometimes the symptoms are so severe that the sick person must be hospitalized.

In rare circumstances, infection with Salmonella can spread from the intestines to the blood, and from there to other parts of the body, producing more severe illnesses such as arterial infections (i.e., infected aneurysms), endocarditis and arthritis. In these cases, Salmonella can cause death unless it’s treated with antibiotics. Reactive arthritis is very difficult to treat and may last for months or years. It does not matter if you treated salmonellosis with antibiotics or not. Some people who develop reactive arthritis also develop irritation in the eyes and also painful urination.

Who is Most at Risk of Salmonella Infection?

Anyone can become sick with a Salmonella infection, but young children aged 5 years and under, elderly adults, pregnant women or people with weakened immune systems are at higher risk for contracting serious illness.

Most people who become ill from a Salmonella infection will recover fully after a few days, but those who are high risk may have more severe illnesses.

Serious Complications of Salmonella Illnesses

Reactive Arthritis is a painful form of inflammatory arthritis that can affect the joints, heels, toes, fingers, and knees. Reactive Arthritis is a chronic and systemic rheumatic disease. It is referred to as ‘reactive’ because it happens when the immune system seems to be ‘reacting’ to the presence of (or recovery from) a bacterial infection in another body system. This disorder typically develops as a complication from an infection in another part of the body, such as Shigella, Campylobacter, Salmonella, Yersinia, or Clostridium foodborne illnesses. The condition can be temporary or last for months or even years.

In a study done by Washington state, 29% of patients developed arthritis following Salmonella gastroenteritis infection.

Health Agency Recommendations

According to the FDA, “Consumers, restaurants, and retailers should not eat, sell, or serve red, white, yellow, or sweet onions from Thomson International, Inc. or products containing such onions. If you cannot tell if your onion is from Thomson International Inc., or your food product contains such onions, you should not eat, sell, or serve it, and should throw it out.”

The CDC recommends, “At home, check your refrigerator and kitchen for recalled onions or foods made with them, such as salads, wraps, tacos, sandwiches, etc. Check the package or look for a sticker on the onion to see if it is from Thomson International, Inc., or one of the brand names below. If it is, don’t eat it. Throw it away.”

SBA excused lawmakers, federal officials from ethics rules in $660 billion loan program

A quick and hardly seen “blanket approval” provided by the Trump administration enables legislators, Small Business Administration personnel, other federal officials and their families to bypass long-standing rules on disputes of interest to look for funds for themselves, adding to concerns that coronavirus aid programs could be subject to scams and abuse.

Under typical scenarios, lawmakers and some federal workers who get small business funds sometimes need to look for approval of an obscure SBA body called the Standards of Conduct Committee. The rule uses to authorities who are company owner, officers, directors or investors with a more than 10 percent business interest, plus any “household members” of those authorities.

However in a guideline the administration released April 13, the administration disclosed that the approval requirement had been suspended for all entities seeking funds from the $660 billion program “so that further action by the [ethics committee] is not required.”

Policy experts and government guard dogs said the blanket waiver could enable authorities to write the guidelines to benefit themselves. Josh Gotbaum, a Brookings Organization scholar who has operated in financial policy under Democratic and Republican administrations, stated he was “appalled” by the waiver.

” The concept that the Small Business Administration can, with no review or publicity, privately let all of its employees set up loans for their member of the family or associates is outrageous,” Gotbaum said.

Because the administration has not yet released any info about the specific customers, it is unidentified the number of members of Congress or SBA officials have actually gained from the almost $700 billion program, but a number of agents did, according to media reports and financial records.

Rep. Susie Lee (D-Nev.) contributed in shaping PPP when she joined other Nevada legislators to urge the Trump administration to make gambling establishments eligible for funds. Leaving out gambling establishments from loans, as the SBA had actually long done, “unjustly impacts many small companies throughout Nevada” the legislators argued in an April news release

What Lee did not discuss is that among the businesses being disallowed from requesting the funds was her other half’s Las Vegas gambling establishment company, Full House Resorts. When the administration adhered to Lee’s demand and allowed gambling establishments to use, Full House received 2 loans amounting to $5.6 million, according to securities filings

Lee was not aware of her husband’s interest in applying for PPP loans at the time she was advising the administration to allow casinos to get financing, according to her spokesperson, Jesús Espinoza.

” Congresswoman Lee signed up with the rest of Nevada’s congressional delegation, that includes members from both parties, in fighting to reverse that decision and provide our state needed resources in a crisis,” Espinoza stated. He added that Lee played no function in Full House’s loan application or in the Treasury Department’s decision to release a blanket waiver for members of Congress and their households.

Capacity, where Lee’s hubby, Daniel R. Lee, is president and chief executive, received its loans after the blanket waiver was put in place. The business did not return requests for comment.

SBA spokesperson Jim Billimoria said the administration released the blanket waiver due to the fact that it treated PPP similarly to loan programs that the company offers in the wake of natural catastrophes and due to the fact that firm authorities were worried that there might be large volume of waiver demands.

The Standards of Conduct Committee is typically comprised of the SBA’s basic counsel, associate administrator of administration and the head of human resources.

” The Requirement of Conduct Committee gave a blanket approval instead of case-by-case factor to consider in acknowledgment that PPP loans were in some respects akin to catastrophe loans (which do not need any Standards of Conduct Committee approval) and in anticipation of the big volume of potential cases that may come before the Committee,” Billimoria said in declaration.

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), who chairs the congressional committee overseeing the SBA, stated he wasn’t specifically familiar with the blanket approval rule but that Congress does not decide which loan candidates receive financing. Applicants are required to apply through their banks, which then send out loans to SBA for last approval.

Although the first round of financing rapidly ran out, more than $100 billion has actually been readily available in the second round for weeks. As long as the loans are used appropriately, they are turned into grants and forgiven.

” Congress plays no role in who gets a loan and who doesn’t,” he stated. “If you got approved for the loan, you got one. If your service qualified for the loan, you got one. It wasn’t like Congress was choosing who got a loan and who didn’t.”

Lee is not the only member of Congress to benefit. Among the wealthiest, Rep. Roger Williams (R-Tex.), stated in a May 5 blog site post that his auto dealers had received loans. Rep. Vicky Hartzler (R-Mo.) said that businesses owned by her household had actually received PPP loans, after they were divulged in the Columbia Tribune

Connecticut artist Judith Pond Kudlow made an application for PPP funds, according to remarks made in an interview with ABC by her other half, Larry Kudlow, White House chief economic advisor and director of the National Economic Council. Her application probably didn’t need a waiver due to the fact that her other half’s task isn’t covered by the arrangement. Larry Kudlow has promoted versus disclosing the names of PPP borrowers.

” Larry Kudlow’s better half is a small-business owner and civilian,” said Kudlow representative Judd Deere in a statement. He called any speculation that something incorrect was happening “false.” Judith Pond Kudlow did not return an ask for remark.

Financial experts from both celebrations have actually mainly complimented the SBA for getting money out the door to countless small companies and their workers, upholding the economy versus shocking unemployment.

However the move to waive ethics guidelines is among a number of high-level choices that might hinder reliable oversight of the program. The Trump administration has informed congressional oversight committees it is not needed to supply info about loan receivers. It also declared that the special inspector basic leading Cares Act oversight can not send reports to Congress without “governmental supervision.”

The SBA in specific has actually been singled out by watchdog groups and members of Congress for poor transparency. The nonpartisan Federal government Accountability Office composed in a current audit of government-wide Cares Act costs that it had more difficulty getting information from the SBA than any other agency. And the agency’s Office of Disaster Assistance has failed to communicate important policy changes affecting loan applicants, such as a $150,000 cap on coronavirus catastrophe loans.

Richard Painter, an attorney who acted as the leading ethics consultant in the George W. Bush administration, questioned whether a “blanket waiver” would be legal in the first place.

” We watched [the SBA] very carefully when I remained in the White House due to the fact that individuals were always trying to get their fingers in the pie there,” Painter said. “It is among the locations that is extremely delicate, where you have a ‘friends and family’ problem. SBA has actually frequently been a centerpiece of that problem, so we’ve watched on it.”

He stated the SBA is of particular concern for principles watchdogs.

” Once you established a system that states this is a conflict of interest, but there can be a waiver, the entire point of that system is it’s case-specific. If you do a blanket waiver, then you have actually basically repealed the rule,” Painter said. “This is a departure from the norm and I have actually never ever seen it in the past, where you have a guideline and after that you issue a waiver that essentially eliminates it.”

Scott Amey, general counsel with the not-for-profit Task on Government Oversight, expressed concern that the SBA is waiving its typical ethics guidelines as it hurries to spend numerous billions of dollars.

” This is the precise time when we must be stressed over government authorities, even members of Congress, taking cash out of the hands of others in requirement,” Amey stated in an e-mail. “Let’s hope somebody else is minding the store because SBA appears more about speed and less about accounting for taxpayer dollars.”

The SBA has formerly said it would launch “individual loan information” for PPP recipients the method it has for other loan programs considering that1991 It likewise informed borrowers on the application that the names of borrowers would be launched to the general public.

In spite of a quick claim by Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin that PPP borrowers would not be disclosed, the SBA revealed last week that it prepares to disclose the names of customers receiving a minimum of $150,000 That represents about 15 percent of the 4.5 million PPP loans, according to administration’s data.

A Liberty of Info Act lawsuit filed by 11 wire service, consisting of The Washington Post, seeks company names and loan quantities for all PPP recipients, consisting of those getting smaller sized quantities of funding.

The Way To Be In Charge Of Self Directed Individual Retirement Account

youtube

Self Directed Ira Or 401k

The 401(k) allows you to take a lending versus it scot-free. You'll pay yourself (your account that is) back with passion. If you need funds from an IRA, it'll cost lots of people the earnings tax obligation on that loan plus a 10% fine. This distinction has even more than spent for some people to charge account with us also on lendings as tiny as $6000 that would have originated from the IRA circulations otherwise. You might secure funds for up to a five year term in many cases (a 30 year term in some), as well as the funding could be for up to 50% of the account value, with an optimum of $50,000.

youtube

Self Directed Ira Companies

A few general rules: If you are acquiring tax liens (or deeds), actual estate choices, or residential properties themselves, you'll do far better with checkbook control. If you are thinking about buying and holding a TIC or having taken care of money accounts, a basic account will certainly be best.

Exactly how Does Self Directed Ira Work

-- Plan individual buys home and also charges an administration cost-- Plan individual "fixes" a property himself instead compared to paying a 3rd non-disqualified party.-- Plan individual receives a compensation for offering a building to the Plan.

Who Offers Self Directed Ira Accounts

Earnings Sharing-- the self directed 401k plans we develop are also psp's or revenue sharing strategies. The IRS publication 560 develops the amount of revenue sharing enabled as well as includes a step-by-step worksheet. As a whole terms the earnings sharing could be approximately 25% of the sponsoring entitie's revenue

Scott Carter. The Solo 401(k) has much softer fines for unintentional purchases in the account. IRA regulation is extremely ruthless. When an error is made in an IRA, the account is dispersed as well as subject to some extremely unkind taxes. Thinking the mistake occurred a pair years back the penalties and interest will quickly lead to fifty percent or even more of your account being taken, as well as any kind of cash left being a routine, taxable, account.

Since the Self-Directed IRA Real Estate Rules are stringent when spending, it's essential to choose the ideal IRA realty investment residential property that is "self sustaining" or cash money streaming every month due to the fact that you can't support it either. In certain components of U.S. like St. Louis MO, Indianapolis IN, Dayton OH, as well as others, it's not unusual to discover residential or commercial properties for $30K - $40K and rent for as high as $750 a month. Those are the kind of genuine estate financial investments that will certainly produce 20% returns or more yearly for the remainder of your life.

With a Solo 401(k), all possessions of the strategy are under the control of the strategy individual(s). You function as trustee of the plan, eliminating the demand for a bank or count on firm to act as a trustee. As trustee you could establish a Solo 401(k) count on account at any local financial institution or lending institution. This gives the plan checkbook control enabling you to act emphatically as well as quickly when a financial investment chance presents itself.

Self Directed Ira Or 401k

The oblique factor for the checkbook control account is the number of different took care of accounts they have. If they had 3 that were not component of "the norm" ... say they had a protected options program, a money trading account, as well as they lent the rest out as tough loan; now just what? The custodial prices on the three "alternative investments" would certainly be around $400-$800 a year, give or take (double that if they each have three alternate investments in their IRAs). If they had the checkbook style account the custodial or administrative costs can be roughly $200 a year overall. So typically because scenario (as well as definitely if they added additional investments) the checkbook account would certainly be the sensible alternative also if they really did not do anything that needed it.

(4) If you choose to acquire land for a $250,000 and also are land-banking for numerous years, utilize your IRAcheckbook or 401Kcheckbook Plan to purchase the lot or system. When offered, all earnings is deemed a roi under the umbrella of the IRA or 401(K) provisions. You can purchase multiple properties by doing this as well as the exact same is real. Everything is considered as properties of the IRA! That's it; no fancy bookkeeping, no Schedule E. Some constraints for the examples above:

youtube

It truly isn't complicated. When we establish a brand-new Self Directed 401(k) strategy, we assist the customer to move or rollover certified funds into the brand-new strategy. The brand-new strategy will certainly have a checking account. When an R E opportunity emerges, the customer just creates a check as well as the title business titles the building for the 401(k). The customer will certainly likewise write a check for any kind of secondary charges or "spruce up" expenditures. If the acquisition is a long-term hold, the tenant will pay the rental fee straight to the 401(k) strategy. When the home is marketed, the title company will certainly send out the profit to the 401(k) strategy. The client, acting as trustee of the strategy, makes all the choices for the plan. With a Self Directed 401(k) plan vs. a Self Directed IRA, there isn't really the demand for a custodian. Consequently the customer (trustee) doesn't need to send documentation or ask permission. He simply makes the decision and composes the check.

Who Regulates Self Directed Iras

Here are some instances: (1) If you choose to buy a retirement house and you're years far from retiring, utilize your IRA or Real Estate 401k to buy the building and also rent it out in the meanwhile. The income you obtain in rental fee is tax deferred up until you begin to take withdrawals, so you can place it away till you do retire. When you're ready, you simply route your IRA or 401k to turn it over to you as a circulation at the current market worth.

Self Directed Ira How To Set Up

Transfers-- a person can move previous 401(k) funds, SEP IRA funds, SIMPLE IRA funds, and Traditional IRA funds-- as a matter of fact any kind of previous "qualified" funds. Roth IRA funds can not be moved.

As an instance; you put $100,000 down on a residential property, and also have a financing for one more $100,000. After 5 years you offer the property for a revenue of $100,000. Maintaining this really easy, 50% of the acquisition was funded. So 50% of the profit goes through the (approximately) 40% tax if this was carried out in an IRA. That suggests $50,000 is subject to the tax and that tax total amounts approximately $20,000. Hence you just maintain $80,000 of your $100,000 gain. If it had actually been done in a 401(k) strategy instead, you would maintain the full $100,000. You will certainly have made 25% more profit just by picking the best account type.

Offering Club companions with SDIRA Services to use a self-directed IRA. Unlike numerous standard or non-self-directed retired life accounts that limit the kinds of possessions the account can hold, a self-directed IRA with Lending Club offers you the liberty to buy a range of possession classes: 4

Self Directed Ira Contribution Limits

Presently only locals of the complying with states can hold an Individual Retirement Account at Lending Club: Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Iowa, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, as well as Wyoming.

Self Directed Ira Ubit

Worth noting, revenue sharing payments are something our strategies allow as well as are improperly comprehended by lots of. We happily aid our customers with this forgotten and important designation for improved tax savings. Utilizing this attribute will save you much more in taxes compared to any kind of typical payment, and still has the same treatment after withdrawal.

Self Directed Ira Good Or Bad

(3) If you determine to purchase a net-leased business home for a $2,500,000 and also the web operating income is $250,000 each year, use your IRAcheckbook or 401Kcheckbook Plan to acquire the home. When possessed, down payment the leas into your IRAcheckbook or 401Kcheckbook account which's it; no elegant accounting, no Schedule E. The rental fees are considered as a roi to the IRA or 401(K) so they do not turn up as gross income on the tax return.
