President Biden just pledged to shut down 60% of America's electric power
The Biden administration made two virtue-signaling proclamations at last week's COP28 conference in Dubai that it says will help save the planet from climate change.
The policies aren't likely to change the planet's temperature by even one-tenth of a degree, but they might just destroy the 21st-century American industrial economy as we know it.
First, Team Biden announced it will stop production of all new coal plants in the United States.
This comes on the heels of President Biden's Environmental Protection Agency saying this year it would impose new power plant emission regulations that are virtually impossible for coal plants to comply with.
The bottom line: No more coal. Period.
But the White House was just getting started.
Vice President Kamala Harris trumpeted the next day new rules to "sharply reduce methane from the oil and natural gas industry."
The administration calls methane a "super-pollutant" that it wants to eliminate because it's "many times more potent than carbon dioxide."
But methane is effectively a hydrocarbon that comes from natural gas.

Eliminating methane is a de facto ban on natural gas power plants.
Here is the most sinister part of this story that no one in the Biden administration is telling you: Eradicating coal and natural gas plants will ravage America's electric power capacity.
These regulations will cause rolling blackouts and brownouts across the country, much like we've already seen in California - America's forerunner of radical anti-fossil fuel policies.
The lights will go out intermittently, and home heating in the winter and air conditioning in the summer will have to be turned off or rationed.
Without gas and coal plants, hospitals, schools, the internet, construction projects and factories will be routinely shut down when unreliable alternative energy sources like wind and solar power aren't delivering enough juice.
Upward of 60% of America's electric power generation will go away - and soon.
Coal still provides roughly 20% of our electric power; natural gas supplies around 40%.
What will make up for this lost power, especially given that our demands on the power grid are only going to multiply over the coming years as the greens want the entire network of cars, trucks and vans to be powered by charging up on the electric grid?
The Biden administration, in other words, wants to nearly double the demands on the electric grid network at the same time it wants to shut down more than half of the nation's power generation - and the most reliable sources at that.

U.N. climate negotiators confirmed Monday they are pushing for a deal at the COP28 climate summit in Dubai that will be the beginning of the end for fossil fuels.
Flying back to Dubai to add his voice to the negotiations, U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres called for "maximum ambition and maximum flexibility" to reach an agreement that can find consensus among the nearly 200 countries.
"We are in a race against time," Guterres told reporters, AFP reports.

"It's time to go into overdrive to negotiate in good faith," he continued after alighting from his jet before going on to join some 80,000 other attendees who have flown in from all around the world for COP28.
The conference of the elites in the lavish Dubai metropolis built by oil money is considering the first-ever call to exit oil, gas and coal, considered by some as the main culprits in the planet's "climate crisis."
Neighbouring Saudi Arabia, the world's largest oil exporter, has led opposition, with the OPEC cartel urging its members to vote against a phase-out of fossil fuels.

Without naming countries, Simon Stiell, the head of the U.N. climate body, called on all sides to remove "unnecessary tactical blockades" holding up a deal.
Guterres called on negotiators to have a "single-minded focus on tackling the root cause of the climate crisis - fossil fuel production and consumption."
He called on the summit to recognise "the need to phase out all fossil fuels" - a stance opposed by oil producers led by Saudi Arabia.

The summit leadership is expected to release a new draft text on Monday.
The annual Conference of the Parties, or COP, has rarely finished on schedule in its 28-year history, but COP28 president Sultan Al Jaber has called on countries to wrap things up on time on Tuesday.

A top Ukrainian official has newly confirmed that the war could have ended - and tens of thousands of lives could have been saved - had Ukraine and its NATO allies accepted a peace deal with Moscow weeks after the February 2022 invasion.
Davyd Arakhamia is the parliamentary leader of Volodymyr Zelensky's Servant of the People party, and head of the Ukrainian delegation at the spring 2022 peace talks held in Istanbul. In an interview last month, Arakhamia acknowledged that the Russians "were prepared to end the war if we agreed to - as Finland once did - neutrality, and committed that we would not join NATO." For Moscow, he added, Ukrainian neutrality was "the key point" and "the biggest thing for them."

https://www.newsweek.com/venezuela-guyana-essequibo-map-referendum-1849209
Venezuelans voted in favor of claiming sovereignty over a vast swathe of neighboring country Guyana on Sunday, according to the nation's election officials, raising fresh fears that President Nicol?s Maduro could seek to annex the territory by force.
The National Election Council claimed to have counted more than 10.5 million votes in a referendum, the Associated Press reported. The council, however, did not explain whether the number of votes was equivalent to each voter or if it was the sum of each individual answer in the five-question referendum.
Venezuela argues that Guyana's Essequibo region, also known as Guayana Esequiba, was stolen from it when the border was drawn over a century ago.
The region-which accounts for two thirds of the area of Guyana-is rich in both oil and minerals, and would in theory give Venezuela access to the Stabroek Block, an oil field that it is estimated contains more than eight billion barrels, discovered by ExxonMobil in 2015, which sits almost entirely in Guyana's territorial waters.
It follows international calls for Venezuela to desist from actions that could threaten Guyana's control of Essequibo and a build up of military forces by Brazil.

Venezuelan voters were asked whether they support "the creation of the Guayana Esequiba state" in the 61,600-square-mile disputed territory, and its incorporation into Venezuela.
The referendum also included questions about granting citizenship to residents and rejecting the jurisdiction of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in settling the dispute.
"We have taken the first steps of a new historical stage to fight for our Guayana Esequiba, for peace and to recover what the liberators left us," Maduro said following the announcing of the referendum's results.
"I came to vote because Essequibo is ours, and I hope that whatever they are going to do, they think about it thoroughly and remember to never put peace at risk," 37-year-old Juan Carlos Rodr?guez, told AP in Caracas, the Venezuelan capital, after voting.

WASHINGTON-A case that could punch holes in the federal tax code heads to the Supreme Court on Tuesday.
The court will hear arguments in Moore v. U.S., which challenges a piece of the 2017 tax law that imposed a one-time levy on profits that companies had accumulated outside the U.S. But its implications could reach much further, providing the justices an opportunity to define what Congress can tax under the Constitution-and what it can't.

NATO Chief: West Should Brace For More 'Bad News' From Ukraine
by Tyler Durden Sunday, Dec 03, 2023 - 12:15 PM
NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg in a fresh interview warned the Western alliance to brace for more "bad news" from Ukraine, according to Saturday remarks given to Germany's national ARD television.
He was asked whether he thinks the situation will worsen for Ukrainian forces in the future, after the counteroffensive has been widely acknowledged as a failure. "We should also be prepared for bad news," he responded. "Wars develop in phases. But we have to support Ukraine in both good and bad times."
He said that in response to the current "critical situation" the West must boost ammunition production. "I will leave it to the Ukrainians and military commanders to make these difficult operational decisions," Stoltenberg explained.
"One of the issues we should address is the fragmentation of the European defense industry," he said. Countries have gone from being enthusiastic supporters and donors of Ukraine's cause to more lately sounding the alarm over dwindling or tapped defense stockpiles, as ammo production also can't keep up.

A week ago, a German official raised eyebrows by speculating that if Germany was forced to enter a major war its troops would only last "two days in battle" due to severe shortages of defense supplied and ammunition as a result of giving them to Ukraine. Below are the German politician's words, according to a translation:
The combat capacity of the German Armed Forces, the Bundeswehr, has been seriously weakened by the shortage caused by the continuous supplies of material and ammunition to Kiev, said Johann Wadephul, German deputy of the opposition Christian Democratic Union (CDU) party. His comments come as it was discovered nearly half of Germans want to see the coalition government dissolved.
"Crucial [German] troop units can only last a maximum of two days in a battle [due to these shortages]. And that is a catastrophic finding overall," Wadephul said. "Anyone who even talks about being ready for war, but expects the Bundeswehr to be at least ready to defend itself, should have ensured that such a bad situation does not occur. Unfortunately, the opposite is the case."
Wadephul argued that the process of improving the combat capacity of the country's armed forces was slow and blamed the German defence minister, Boris Pistorius, for the current state of things. He added that he sees high-sounding statements but little real action to change the current situation.
According to the politician, "the turning point" for the Bundeswehr has not yet arrived.
"Even when it comes to replacement procurement, the Bundeswehr is actually making a loss. As correct as the donations to Ukraine are in terms of material and ammunition, in the current security situation, it is unacceptable that there is no compensation," Wadephul said. "We need much more [weapons] than we have had."
All of this is also part of the 'war fatigue' echoed in media headlines. Still, Stoltenberg and the Biden White House are pressing European leaders to double and triple down. Stoltenberg also recently tried to swat down assertions that fatigue has finally set in even among NATO leadership.
And in his latest interview, the NATO chief emphasized that "Wars are inherently unpredictable" - but that "we know that the more we support Ukraine, the faster the war will end." Yet this strategy hasn't worked out so far.

Western states are pressuring Liberia, the Marshall Islands, and Panama to boost checks of ships sailing under their flags to ensure they are not used to help Russia bypass sanctions, Reuters reported on Friday, citing sources familiar with the matter.
According to the report, Russian tankers sometimes switch their flags to those of the abovementioned countries, practicing so-called "flag-hopping" to transport oil sold above the Western price cap.
The calls to enforce oversight of the ships reportedly came from the US, EU, and UK in letters signed by Lindsey Whyte, head of international finance at the UK Treasury, John Berrigan, head of the European Commission's financial services unit, and Brian Nelson, a terrorism and economic intelligence official at the US Treasury.

The positive view of EV adoption
Consumer Reports, however, found in May that electrifying the entire U.S. light-duty vehicle fleet by 2050 would require less than 1% growth per year in electricity generation. The report found that if 25% of the entire U.S. passenger vehicle fleet was electric by 2032, the grid could meet that demand by only experiencing a 6% growth in electricity generation.
Lindsay Buckley, spokesperson for the California Energy Commission, said last year that EV charging accounted for less than 1% of the grid's total load during peak hours. By 2030, that number is expected to be around 5%, a "small amount" of added demand.

While highlighting electrification subsidies, the report ignores those subsidies that exist for fossil fuels. According to an August study by the International Monetary Fund, fossil fuel subsidies surged to a record $7 trillion last year.
The IMF projected that if these existing fossil fuel subsidies were scrapped, 1.6 million premature deaths could be prevented and the world could get a little closer to achieving its global warming targets.
"If governments removed explicit subsidies and imposed corrective taxes, fuel prices would increase," the IMF wrote. "This would lead firms and households to consider environmental costs when making consumption and investment decisions. The result would be cutting global carbon-dioxide emissions significantly, cleaner air, less lung and heart disease, and more fiscal space for governments."
The final category of the foundation's report involves regulatory electrification and emissions mandates.
Combined, the report found that these hidden costs add around $48,000 to the cost of an average model-year 2021 EV over 10 years.
Even with recently slashed prices and tax incentives, the report said, EVs will remain more expensive than their internal-combustion-engine counterparts for years without "increased and sustained government favors."
A key component of EV costs revolves around their battery components. And while EVs are generally a greener solution to travel (depending on the energy makeup of the grid they charge on), the raw materials needed to make their batteries are somewhat problematic.
Both cobalt and lithium have been linked to environmental concerns and human rights issues, according to the Times. Mining cobalt produces hazardous slag that leaches into the surrounding environment; mining lithium uses an enormous amount of groundwater.
Toyota, which remains staunchly committed to hybrids, said in May that the same raw material used for one long-range EV could instead be used to produce 90 hybrids. The overall carbon reduction of those hybrids, according to Toyota, would be 37 times higher than that of a single EV.

Unfortunately for Xi, his more strident appeal does not seem to be working:
The number of Chinese couples tying the knot for the first time has plummeted by nearly 56% over the past nine years, the financial magazine Yicai quoted the 2023 China Statistical Yearbook as saying, with such marriages numbering less than 11 million in 2022.
Young people are increasingly avoiding marriage, having children and buying a home amid a tanking economy and rampant youth unemployment, part of an emerging social phenomenon known as the "young refuseniks" - people who reject the traditional four-fold path to adulthood: finding a mate, marriage, mortgages and raising a family.
A recent poll on the social media platform Weibo found that while most of the 44,000 respondents said 25-28 is the best age to marry, nearly 60% said they were delaying marriage due to work pressures, education or the need to buy property.
RFA quoted a young Chinese woman studying in Georgetown who said her generation was already inclined to delay marriage and family in favor of developing their careers, and Xi's manic coronavirus lockdown sealed the deal by making self-reliance seem even more important to Chinese women.
"Rather than making how you feel dependent on another person, it's better to focus on what you want to do," she said.
RFA noted Xi's current Politburo is "the first in decades not to include a single woman," a detail that might make his appeal for the "political mobilization" of their wombs seem even less appealing to his female subjects.
Furthermore, for all his talk about gender equality under socialism, Xi's China has fallen from 69th to 107th place on the World Economic Forum (WEF) Global Gender Gap Report. The regime has lately been cracking down on women's rights activists, accusing them of seeking to "subvert state power."
The Chinese Communist Party is evidently fearful that women's rights activists might find common cause with other movements it sees as threats, such as the Uyghurs and pro-democracy activists. Also, as the Peng Shuai outrage demonstrated, the old men who hold power in the Communist Party are not going to let themselves be indicted or embarrassed by #MeToo activists.
Xi's fresh encouragement for women to embrace traditional wife and mother roles may not be welcomed by Chinese women who feel their country is already moving backward - and not just because they resent Xi's cavalier political rhetoric.
Activists who spoke to RFA noted that Chinese women have serious reasons to fear being edged out of the shrinking market for good jobs, so they want to signal prospective employers that they are absolutely devoted to their careers and will not require time off for maternity leave or raising children.

Fortune cited research last month that found female Chinese managers are more likely to pass over female job applicants because they are more conscious of how much time marriage and maternity can take away from a career and more skeptical of pledges from young women that they will remain wholly devoted to their jobs.
New York City University political science professor Xia Ming feared Xi's regime might decide to solve that problem by "removing women from the labor market entirely." It might make sense to an authoritarian government that if too many women are putting off their maternal duties to pursue career ambitions, the answer is to crush their ambitions.
Writing at the Hill last month, redoubtable China critic Gordon Chang said the Chinese Communist Party "panicked" after the "unexpected" results of a recent poll that found women are increasingly less interested in marrying young and having children.

The wife of a whistleblower who claimed there was widespread Google meddling in the last US Presidential election has died in a car crash.
Tragic Misti Dawn Vaughn, 29, was killed after her vehicle spun into the path of a tractor-trailer in California.
She was married to psychology professor Robert Epstein, 66, who shared his grief in a heartbreaking Twitter post. Prof Epstein wrote: "My beautiful wife Misti, a published poet, succumbed last night to injuries sustained in a car accident.

Prof Epstein claimed Hillary Clinton picked up more than 2.6 million votes because ofGoogle bias
The Washington Post/getty Images)
Prof Estein controversially claimed that Google search resultsgave Hillary Clinton an advantage in the 2016 election.
Testifying to Senator Ted Cruz in July, he said theDemocratic candidate benefited from 2.6 million extra votes as a result.
He said: "I know the number of votes that shifted because I have conducted dozens of controlled experiments in the US and other countries that measure precisely how opinions and votes shift when search results favor one candidate, cause, or company."
But Google denied favouritism, saying in a statement: "This researcher's inaccurate claim has been debunked since it was made in 2016. As we stated then, we have never re-ranked or altered search results to manipulate political sentiment.
"Our goal is to always provide people with access to high quality, relevant information for their queries, without regard to political viewpoint."

The move to lift restrictions was included in the White House's supplemental budget request, sent to the Senate on October 20. "This request would," the proposed budget says, "allow for the transfer of all categories of defense articles."
The request pertains to little-known weapons stockpiles in Israel that the Pentagon established for use in regional conflicts, but which Israel has been permitted to access in limited circumstances - the very limits President Joe Biden is seeking to remove.
"If enacted, the amendments would create a two-step around restrictions on U.S. weapons transfers to Israel."
"If enacted, the amendments would create a two-step around restrictions on U.S. weapons transfers to Israel," said John Ramming Chappell, a legal fellow with the Center for Civilians in Conflict.
Created in the 1980s to supply the U.S. in case of a regional war, the War Reserve Stockpile Allies-Israel, or WRSA-I, is the largest node in a network of what are effectively foreign U.S. weapons caches. Highly regulated for security, the stockpiles are governed by a set of strict requirements. Under circumstances laid out in these requirements, Israel has been able to draw on the stockpile, purchasing the weapons at little cost if it uses the effective subsidy of U.S. military aid.
With the WRSA-I, Biden is looking to lift virtually all the meaningful restrictions on the stockpile and the transfer of its arms to Israel, with plans to remove limitations to obsolete or surplus weapons, waive an annual spending cap on replenishing the stockpile, remove weapon-specific restrictions, and curtail congressional oversight. All of the changes in the Biden budget plan would be permanent, except for lifting the spending cap, which is limited to the 2024 fiscal year.
The changes would come in an arms-trade relationship that is already shrouded in secrecy, as The Intercept recently reported. Whereas the administration has provided pages of detailed lists of weapons provided to Ukraine, for instance, its disclosure about arms provided to Israel could fit in a single, short sentence. Last week, Bloomberg obtained a leaked list of weapons provided to Israel, revealing that they include thousands of Hellfire missiles - the same kind being used extensively by Israel in Gaza.

Beef Recall in Eight States as Possible Contamination Found
Chloe MayerNov 21, 2023
Cooks have been warned of a ground beef recall hitting thousands of pounds of meat-amid fears that it may be "contaminated with a foreign object."
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced details of the recall on Sunday, revealing that about 5,620 pounds of raw ground beef must be either returned to the place of purchase or destroyed. The meat had been shipped to eight states across the U.S.
The FSIS, which falls under the remit of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, protects Americans' health by ensuring meat, poultry, and egg products are safe to eat. The agency, which has around 9,000 employees, occasionally issues recalls when it fears a food product may be harmful in some way. For example, back in January, some 50,000 pounds of sausage products were recalled when FSIS inspectors announced they be infected with a potentially deadly bacteria that could cause a serious infection called listeriosis. And in November 2022, some 93,697 pounds of raw ground beef products were recalled.

Regarding this week's recall of ground beef, the FSIS has warned consumers not to use meat produced and packed on August 19 by a company named Skyline Provisions, Inc. The items subject to the recall are:
20-lb. carton boxes containing four packages of "SKYLINE PROVISIONS, INC. GROUND BEEF 81/19" with "ITEM # 000248" printed on the label. The product bears the establishment number "EST. 19300" inside the USDA mark of inspection.

Javier Milei, a libertarian member of Argentina's Congress, will be the country's next president after rival candidate Sergio Massa conceded in the runoff Sunday.
Why it matters: The crumbling economy has helped propel the far-right economist who's been compared to former President Trump, per Noticias Telemundo's Marina E. Franco, writing for Axios.
Some 40% of the population lives in poverty, inflation is in the triple digits and GDP has been shrinking.
By the numbers: Official results showed La Libertad Avanz candidate won nearly 56% of the vote, while Peronist Economy Minister Massa won just over 44%.
Of note: Trump congratulated Milei on his Truth Social platform on Sunday night, saying: "The whole world was watching! I am very proud of you. You will turn your Country around andtruly Make Argentina Great Again!"

The climate-change religion: How long before human sacrifices?
Forgoing procreation, disrupting fellow humans' lives, and wishing for death on a massive scale, environmentalism shows cult-like tendencies
By Augusto Zimmermann, Professor and Head of Law at Sheridan Institute of Higher Education in Australia, President of WALTA - Legal Theory Association, and former Law Reform Commissioner in Western Australia
The climate-change religion: How long before human sacrifices?

History teaches us that some ancient civilisations killed their children to change the weather. They used to practice child sacrifice to appease their gods in an attempt to court their good graces. Those primitive peoples believed that through human sacrifice, the forces of nature could be coerced in their favour. For example, one of the ways the Aztecs honoured their gods was by killing people in a field with arrows so that their blood might fertilise the land.
The modern environmentalist movement is often compared to a religion. It certainly thinks that humans can change the weather, and it includes a vision of sin and repentance - damnation and salvation. Above and beyond the presence of actual neo-pagans and Gaia worshippers in its ranks, the environmentalist movement itself is displaying characteristics of a nature-worshipping cult - and a remarkably anti-human one at that. Many of its supporters effectively believe that the world has a cancer, and that cancer is called the human race.
The Just Stop Oil movement provides a compelling example of how modern environmentalism has become a primitive and barbaric religion by any other name. In October 2022, iconoclastic activists targeted Vincent Van Gogh's Sunflowers (1888) in the National Gallery, London, for a "climate emergency" protest. By damaging works of art in museums, blocking roads, stopping play at sports matches and more, these eco-fascists reveal an environmentalism not only endowed with

OpenAI board in discussions with Sam Altman to return as CEO

The OpenAI board is in discussions with Sam Altman to return to the company as its CEO, according to multiple people familiar with the matter. One of them said Altman, who was suddenly fired by the board on Friday with no notice, is "ambivalent" about coming back and would want significant governance changes.
Update, 5:35PM PT: A source close to Altman says the board had agreed in principle to resign and to allow Altman and Brockman to return, but has since waffled - missing a key 5PM PT deadline by which many OpenAI staffers were set to resign. If Altman decides to leave and start a new company, those staffers would assuredly go with him.
Altman holding talks with the company just a day after he was ousted indicates that OpenAI is in a state of free-fall without him. Hours after he was axed, Greg Brockman, OpenAI's president and former board chairman, resigned, and the two have been talking to friends and investors about starting another company. A string of senior researchers also resigned on Friday, and people close to OpenAI say more departures are in the works.
Altman is "ambivalent" about coming back
OpenAI's largest investor, Microsoft, said in a statement shortly after Altman's firing that the company "remains committed" to its partnership with the AI firm. However, OpenAI's investors weren't given advance warning or opportunity to weigh in on the board's decision to remove Altman. As the face of the company and the most prominent voice in AI, his removal throws the future of OpenAI into uncertainty at a time when rivals are racing to catch up with the unprecedented rise of ChatGPT.
A spokesperson for OpenAI didn't respond to a request for comment about Altman discussing a return with the board. A Microsoft spokesperson declined to comment.
OpenAI's current board consists of chief scientist Ilya Sutskever, Quora CEO Adam D'Angelo, former GeoSim Systems CEO Tasha McCauley, and Helen Toner, the director of strategy at Georgetown's Center for Security and Emerging Technology. Unlike traditional companies, the board isn't tasked with maximizing shareholder value, and none of them hold equity in OpenAI. Instead, their stated mission is to ensure the creation of "broadly beneficial" artificial general intelligence, or AGI.
Sutskever, who also co-founded OpenAI and leads its researchers, was instrumental in the ousting of Altman this week, according to multiple sources. His role in the coup suggests a power struggle between the research and product sides of the company, the sources say.

McCain caused confusion when he posted a photo from his daughter Meghan's wedding in which his walking boot was on his left foot. He had previously been seen wearing it on his right foot after he suffered a minor tear in his right Achilles tendon.

Trump caught them all.
Joe Raedle/getty
On Monday morning, shortly after the biotech company Moderna announced promising news about the efficacy of its COVID vaccine, Ivanka Trump went on Twitter to blow some minds:
Let's pick up the pieces of our brains and recall what was literally happening back in January. Early in the month, intelligence and health officials were becoming increasingly alarmed by a novel coronavirus spreading in China. Yet at the time, as officials later told the Washington Post, "Trump's advisers struggled to get him to take the virus seriously." Trump received his first in-depth briefing on the virus from Secretary of Health and Human Services Alex Azar on January 18. (During the call, the president reportedly was more interested in discussing when a ban on flavored vaping products would end.) The first COVID-19 case in the United States was reported on January 20. Asked about the coronavirus publicly for the first time two days later, Trump declared, "We have it totally under control. It's one person coming in from China."
Trump's children have ascribed many unlikely qualities to him, but clairvoyance is a new one.
While there is now ample evidence that Trump knowingly downplayed the seriousness of the coming pandemic from the start, Ivanka would have us believe that behind the scenes, her father was taking it super seriously and being astoundingly proactive. So proactive, in fact, that he joined up with a much-hyped yet unproven biotechnology company to kickstart a COVID vaccine one week before the virus had hit American soil and four months before he would announce Project Warp Speed. Trump's children have ascribed many unlikely qualities to him, but clairvoyance is a new one.

Joe Biden Hits Head on Helicopter Door Hours After Falling
Matthew ImpelliJun 02, 2023 at 2:45 Pm
(Now watch PDJT get off a Marine One)
President Joe Biden bumped his head while exiting the Marine One helicopter on Thursday, hours after he fell onstage at the U.S. Air Force Academy's graduation ceremony in Colorado.
In several videos posted to Twitter, Biden can be seen bumping his head on the top of the helicopter's doorframe. The White House press pool report confirmed that the president hit his head but added that he looked "spry" after getting off the helicopter on the South Lawn.
The incident comes less than 12 hours after Biden, 80, fell while onstage at the Air Force Academy's graduation event in Colorado Springs.
"Graduates, you made a noble choice to lead a life of service," Biden said during his speech at Thursday's ceremony. "In the years ahead, your airmen and guardians are going to look to you for guidance and inspiration because the world is going to get more confusing. They'll put their trust in you. You, in turn, must strive to always be worthy of their confidence."

After his speech, Biden started to walk offstage but tripped over a sandbag and fell onto the floor of the stage.
"He's fine. There was a sandbag on stage while he was shaking hands," White House Communications Director Ben LaBolt said on Twitter following the incident.
After hitting his head on the helicopter door, Biden told reporters, "I got sandbagged," referring to his earlier fall.
Newsweek reached out to the White House press office via email for further comment.
Donald Trump responded to Biden's fall in Colorado while delivering a campaign speech to supporters in Iowa.
"Well, I hope he wasn't hurt…. You got to be careful about that, you gotta be careful about that because you don't want that," the former president said. "Even if you got to tiptoe down a ramp."
Trump's remark referenced an occasion in 2020 when he was seen slowly walking down a ramp after delivering a speech at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who recently announced his run for the presidency, also commented on Biden's fall at the Air Force Academy ceremony.
"I don't know if he sustained injuries, but I just want to say that we hope and wish Joe Biden a swift recovery from any injuries he may have sustained," DeSantis said to supporters in New Hampshire on Thursday. "But we also wish the United States of America a swift recovery from the injuries sustained because of Joe Biden and his policies."

Abercrombie & Fitch CEO's rulebook for corporate jet staffers

When the high-flying CEO of Abercrombie & Fitch boards his $50 million corporate jet, he doesn't want to see the "end square" of the toilet paper folded in the lavatory.
So Michael Jeffries made clear his wishes in a highly detailed 47-page "Aircraft Standards" rulebook for the crew.
Among the manual's demands:
* Male staffers are to be clean-shavenand wear a uniform ofAbercrombie polo shirts, flip-flops and a "spritz" of the firm's cologne - andboxer briefs. All staffers must wear sunglasses.
* When Jeffries, 68, or boyfriend Matthew Smith make a request, the reply must be, "No problem" - not, "Just a minute," or "Sure."
* Stewards must wear black gloves to handle silverware - but white gloves to set the table.
* Toilet paper must not be "exposed" and its "end square" should not be folded. "Washclothes are to be tri-folded."
ABERCROMBIE & FITCH'S HUNKY MALE MODELS
The staffers, described as actors and models, were also instructed to check for fingerprints on the Gulfstream G550 jet, arrange fresh flowers, center salt and pepper on meal trays, properly fold seat-belt buckles - and make sure the Phil Collins song "Take Me Home" is playing when passengers board.
Details of the manual came to light in a federal age-discrimination lawsuit filed in 2010 by former pilot Michael Stephen Bustin, now 55, who said he was fired and replaced by a younger pilot.
The clothing company's general counsel said the suit was without merit and refused to comment on the rulebook. Jeffries has been praised for his attention to detail as head of the retailer, which posted revenue of $4.2 billion in the latest fiscal year.
The aircraft rulebook tells crew to "bring Michael's lucky wallet to him" after they present him with copies of Abercrombie's nonpublic reports.
Jeffries is also particular about his caffeine. He drinks Assam tea in the morning but switches to Darjeeling after 2 p.m.
On flights longer than two hours, crew members can have a meal - but "if the passengers are eating cold food, crew members are not to eat hot meals."
There are also instructions for handling Jeffries and Smith's dogs, Ruby, Trouble and Sammy.
"When Ruby and Trouble travel, Ruby will sit opposite Michael in the cabin, in Sammy's seat. When Sammy travels, Ruby will sit in Trouble's seat," the manual says.

Cal. Gov. Newsom solicited millions in donations to his wife's charity, far-left orgs, records show
Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom solicited millions of dollars in behested payments for his wife's charity and left-wing organizations over the past 12 years, data from a California government website shows.
Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom has used his office to solicit millions of dollars in behested payments for his wife's charity and various left-wing organizations over the past 12 years, according to a California government website designed to track political donations.
California's behested payments system allows public officials and lawmakers to solicit payments from individuals or organizations to another individual or organization "for a legislative, governmental or charitable purpose," according to California's Fair Political Practices Commission. In total, since 2011 Newsom solicited more than $300 million in donations for various causes while governor and lieutenant governor, including his wife's California Partners Project, the left-leaning Tides Foundation, consulting fees to the former mayor of Los Angeles, and climate activist organization the Aileen getty Foundation.
"California law permits what amounts to explicitly a shakedown of donors and corporations, for money for their own pet projects," Scott Walker, president of the investigative think tank Capital Research Center, told the Daily Caller News Foundation.
Between the years of 2020 and 2023, Newsom solicited more than 20 payments for his wife's California Partners Project totaling over $2,300,000, according to the payments tracker. The organization focuses on the advancing "equal pay and women's representation on corporate boards" and creating "a more equitable California," according to its website.
Groups solicited for payments to his wife's organization include the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria and the Lisa Stone Pritzker Family Foundation, founded by the wife of billionaire John Pritzker, according to the payments tracker.
"It's not going in that office holder's account, but they solicit the money and it goes into another account. So, say a charitable or nonprofit account," political strategist Duane Dichiara told the DCNF.
Newsom solicited donations of over $12 million dollars on behalf of the Tides Foundation between 2020 and 2021, according to the payments tracker. The Tides Foundation previously mounted a press campaign attempting to get corporations to withdraw from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce (COC) because they believe the COC does not support enough pro-green policies, and the foundation also donated to groups attempting to get Donald Trump off the ballot.
In 2023, Newsom solicited $500,000 to the Aileen getty Foundation, a climate activist organization founded by the heiress of billionaire oil tycoon John Paul getty's fortune, Aileen getty, according to the payments tracking system. Aileen getty previously donated over $1 million to the activist group Just Stop Oil, which is known for having activists glue their hands to concrete and throw tomato soup at paintings, according to the Daily Mail.

For weeks the Security Council has been riven by divisions over the war and its impact, rejecting four draft resolutions about the conflict.
Some texts were blocked by the United States, a close Israel ally, because they did not mention Israel's right to defend itself.
Another presented by the Americans was stymied by Russia and China in particular because it did not clearly call for a ceasefire.
In light of the impasse, the UN General Assembly last Friday adopted by a large majority a non-binding resolution requesting an "immediate humanitarian truce," but not mentioning Hamas.
Israel, through Erdan, blasted the text, saying it will "go down as infamy."
During Monday's Security Council meeting, several speakers, while denouncing the Hamas attacks, highlighted the price paid by inhabitants of Gaza, where health officials say more than 8,300 people have been killed in the Hamas-run territory.

>muh chaos
>clearly an upgrade
>Timeline: Republicans' chaotic search for a new House speaker
Oct. 18
The House gathers for a second vote for speaker, with Jordan and Jeffries again nominated by their respective parties.
Jordan again fails to secure the necessary votes to become speaker and sees his opposition grow on the second ballot. In all, 22 Republicans withhold their support for the Ohio Republican, but he picks up votes from two GOP lawmakers who opposed him on the first ballot: Reps. Doug LaMalfa of California and Victoria Spartz of Indiana.
Some Republicans indicate they want the House to vote to give McHenry more authority to allow for consideration of a limited legislative agenda, though such an effort would likely require support from Democrats.
Jordan again pledges not to step aside.
"We got 200 votes. You know, we picked up some today, a couple dropped off but they voted for me before, I think they can come back again," he tells reporters. "So we'll keep talking to members, we'll keep working on it."
Oct. 20
The House holds a third vote for speaker, and Jordan continues to bleed support from fellow Republicans. On the third ballot, the Ohio Republican loses 25 GOP lawmakers in total. The final tally is 210 votes for Jeffries and 194 for Jordan.
The GOP conference convenes for a closed-door meeting and votes by secret ballot to drop Jordan as the nominee for speaker - 86 members say Jordan should remain in the race, while 112 say he should not.
The vote leaves Republicans again searching for a speaker candidate who can unite the deeply divided conference.
Oct. 22
Nine Republicans meet a deadline to announce their candidacies for speaker, according to Rep. Elise Stefanik, chair of the House GOP conference. The nine candidates for the speaker nomination are:
Rep. Jack Bergman of Michigan
Rep. Byron Donalds of Florida
Rep. Tom Emmer of Minnesota
Rep. Kevin Hern of Oklahoma
Rep. Mike Johnson of Louisiana
Rep. Dan Meuser of Pennsylvania
Rep. Gary Palmer of Alabama
Rep. Austin Scott of Georgia
Rep. Pete Sessions of Texas
Only two of those nine voted to certify the results of the 2020 presidential election.
Oct. 23
Republicans meet for a candidate forum, where the contenders make their pitch to their colleagues on why they should be nominated for speaker.
Meuser drops out of the race, bringing the total number of candidates to eight.
Before the forum, former President Donald Trump weighs in and declines to endorse any of the candidates. Instead, he tells reporters during a campaign stop in New Hampshire that "I'm sort of trying to stay out" of the race. It's unclear how much weight Trump's endorsement holds with the current GOP conference, as he threw his support behind Jordan, and his bid failed.
Oct. 24
Republicans gather behind closed doors for the third time to select their nominee for speaker. Palmer drops out of the race just before the meeting, bringing the field of candidates vying for the nomination to seven.
The party holds five rounds of voting in all, and the nod ultimately goes to Emmer, the majority whip.

Sessions is eliminated after the first round, followed by Bergman after the second and Scott after the third. Donalds withdraws from the race after the fourth round, while Hern drops off the ballot.

Fact Check: The getty Museum has at least 6 basement levels that are larger than the area of the entire museum campus. $12 billion to build they say… The bunker is one mile deep, with 6 major levels, and several sub levels as large as a city each. This has connection to all of LA, Orange, and SB counties. It connects via high speed tube train to Catalina Island to the west, and Edwards AFB, China Lake, Tonapah, etc, etc etc…. Children go in but they don't come out, unless they are kids that are on TV, like mousekateers. EVERY child star goes under this place to have fluids taken. The lowest level is where the most horrible Satanic rituals take place, they make even a Satanist squeamish. UCLA, USC, FBI, city hall, music center, Disneyland, etc, etc, all connected by tunnels with trams and elevators. Club 33 in Disneyland, the Mark Taper Forum in LA. Almost every old building has tunnels that eventually connect. These tunnels can be very old, or made recently. Playboy mansion, Lookout mtn, (Jared Leto's house) Brad Pitt's house, and on, and on… the Skirbal center in LA.. how hard is this to prove, they can't hide all the entrances. Only the Government has the power to do that!! Get the picture yet? IT IS THE GOVERNMENT DOING THIS

Exclusive: D.C. Residents Fear Crime Surge Turning Area into U.S. War Zone

WENDELL HUSEB?21 Oct 2023
Many Washington, DC, residents cannot walk their dog, enjoy a local park, or pick up groceries without fear of being stabbed, robbed, or gunned down in the District, a 68 square mile area that local residents described as a "war zone" to Breitbart News.
Just this week, five homicides occurred in 35 hours in three separate highly trafficked areas of the city: Benning neighborhood in Southeast, Capitol Hill in Northeast, and Brightwood in Northwest. One of them entailed a former Democrat staffer for a District council member. Another shocking incident occurred Monday when four men jumped out of a car in the well-to-do Wharf neighborhood with guns drawn to rob restaurantgoers, Metropolitan Police Department footage showed.
Crime soared in 2022 after U.S. Attorney for D.C. Matthew Graves refused to prosecute 67 percent of those arrested. In turn, 222 criminal homicides occurred in 2023, a 35 percent increase from the same period in 2022, according to police statistics. The District eclipsed 200 killings on August 12, the earliest point since the late 1990s.
The District currently ranks 173 in safety on a list of 182 American cities, dropping from last year's 168 spot, according to a study recently released by WalletHub.
Several District residents shared their crime stories with Breitbart News but asked to remain anonymous due to fear of retribution. One District resident recounted how he suffered a minor concussion in 2023 after juveniles assaulted him while walking on the Metropolitan Branch Trail in Northeast. The incident occurred near the H Street corridor, located just north of the Capitol Building. Residents in the area often see storefronts smashed and homeless defecating on the sidewalk.
"Unprovoked, one of the juveniles ran up behind me, launched himself into the air, and slammed his fist into the back of my head," the D.C. resident said. "It took the police fifteen minutes to reach me at the NoMa-Gallaudet Metro Station - an unacceptable amount of time. Even though the group could see me on the phone with emergency services, they continued to casually walk down the trail out of sight, with the assumed knowledge that there would be zero consequences for their actions."
Another local resident who lives in Navy Yard told Breitbart News that President Joe Biden should pay attention to the "war zone in his backyard," noting, "Washington, DC, is about as close as you will get to an American war zone in the U.S., and it's only getting worse," he said. "That's hardly hyperbole; I've lost all sense of safety and security, and I live in one of the 'better' neighborhoods. I guess that's what you get when you leave governance entirely to Democrats and a few socialists."

Threads Ban On Search Terms Related To COVID-19 Is 'Temporary': Instagram Chief
Authored by Stephen Katte via The Epoch Times,
Social media platform Threads's ban on search terms related to COVID-19 is only temporary, Instagram chief Adam Mosseri has revealed.
In an Oct. 17 post on Threads, Mr. Mosseri said he didn't have a firm date on when the ban would be lifted, but he didn't think it would be a permanent situation.
"I don't have an ETA to give you, unfortunately, but it is temporary, and we are working on it. We're just getting pulled in a lot of directions at once right now," Mr. Mosseri said.
"The broader team is working on deeper integrations into Instagram and Facebook, graph building, EU compliance, Fediverse support, trending, and generally making sure Threads continues to grow," he added.
Following Threads's July release, parent company Meta rolled out several updates, including a new search function similar to that on X, formerly known as Twitter.
However, users soon discovered the new search function blocked access to certain posts related to COVID-19, such as those concerning vaccines and long COVID.
Users searching for some COVID-related terms were reportedly met with a blank screen and redirected to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

"Censorship doesn't work. Misinfo still gets circulated by code names & other platforms, tech companies should invest in real solutions like moderation/education," Lucky Tran, director of science communication at Columbia University, said at the time in an X post.
Another Tech CEO, Michael Robertson, was far more scathing, saying in an X post that Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg "treats users like children." He called for a boycott of Threads and for people to "embrace" rival platform X.
According to a later post by Ms. Tran, words such as sex, nude, gore, porn, coronavirus, vaccines, and vaccination are among other blocked words.
Meta confirmed in a previous statement to The Epoch Times that Threads is blocking users from searching for words that could bring up "sensitive" posts for now, but people would be able to search for keywords such as "COVID" in the future once the company is "confident in the quality of the results."
In a follow-up post, Mr. Mosseri promised to look into the timeline for unblocking the banned COVID-19 terms on Threads.
"Weeks or months, let me look into it and circle back. The reality is that we have lots of important work to do," he said.
"The team is moving fast, but we're not yet where we want to be," Mr. Mosseri added.
Meta owns and operates several social media platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, Threads, and WhatsApp.
Focus on Israel-Hamas War Misinformation
According to Mr. Mosseri, the primary concern for his team is managing content centered around the Israel-Hamas War.
"The biggest safety focus right now is managing content responsibly given the war in Israel in Gaza," he said.
Terrorist organization Hamas launched an Oct. 7 surprise attack on Israel, killing over 1,400 Israelis, wounding around 3,000, and kidnapping at least 130 others.

The retaliation air strikes on the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip by Israel have killed at least 2,200, and wounded another 8,714.
Misinformation has been rife as both sides in the conflict, and their supporters, attempt to gain the upper hand in the ongoing propaganda war.
The Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry claimed recently that at least 500 people were killed in an Oct. 17 blast at a hospital, blaming the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).
The IDF denied it was responsible, and on Oct. 18, President Joe Biden revealed data collected by the United States Defense Department supports Israel's claim that it wasn't responsible.
Hamas also released a video recently showing a female hostage receiving medical treatment, but a White House spokesperson has since questioned its authenticity.
(Why oh whyare they doing this? Avoiding liability for their collusion with FDA, CDC, the WHO, our Government and all leaders of all countries forcing their people to get the jab or die, go to jail or die. All of Social Media, Media must know too many are catching on to the lies told (we were told to archive offline) or something worse. BTW archive everything, I mean everything from FDA, CDC, NIH or any government agency now,because the "Big Eraser" of evidence is initiated!)

India's Supreme Court refuses to back gay marriage
The country's highest court announces much-awaited verdict on marriage-equality rights
India's Supreme Court refuses to back gay marriage

India's Supreme Court on Tuesday declined to legally recognize same-sex marriages, leaving the decision to Parliament and state legislatures to validate such unions legal, Indian media are reporting.
A bench of India's highest court, delivering its eagerly-awaited verdict on a batch of pleas seeking legal backing for same-sex marriages in the country, held that it is beyond the remit of courts to issue a positive direction to the legislature regarding the issue.
"The court can't make law but only interpret it and it is for Parliament to change the Special Marriage Act," Chief Justice of India (CJI) D Y Chandrachud said. "The court can neither strike down nor read words into the Special Marriage Act to include same-sex members within the ambit of the 1954 law," the CJI's order read. Apart from Chandrachud, the bench also comprised Justices Sanjay Kishan Kaul, S Ravindra Bhat, Hima Kohli, and PS Narasimha.
The Special Marriage Act of 1954 is an Act of the Parliament of India with provision for civil marriage for people of India and its nationals overseas. Petitioners in support of same-sex marriages have argued for an interpretation of this Act "in a gender-neutral manner where a person is not discriminated against due to sexual orientation."
Despite the verdict, the CJI noted that the institution of marriage has "undergone a sea change" and it is not static. "The meaning of liberty is the ability to be who one wishes to be," he added.
The five-judge bench also ruled that non-heterosexual couples cannot be granted the right to jointly adopt a child. However, Chandrachud struck down the Central Adoption Resource Authority's (CARA) regulation thatrestricted queer and unmarried couples from adopting children. CARA, a statutory body, is affiliated with India's Ministry of Women and Child Development.
Meanwhile, Chandrachud has asked the federal government to constitute a committee to "decide the rights and entitlements of persons in queer unions."The committee will address the practical concerns of same-sex couples, such as getting ration cards, pensions, and succession issues. The CJI has also directed India's federal and state governments to "ensure that the queer community is not discriminated against" because of their orientation.
In March, the Supreme Court had referred several petitions seeking legal recognition for same-sex marriages in the country to a constitution bench of five judges of the court, on the grounds that these petitions were "seminal" and an "important matter."
The petitioners included same-sex couples, rights activists, and various organizations, who challenged the constitutionality of the existing legislation, including the Special Marriages Act, Hindu Marriage Act, Foreign Marriage Act and others. Raising its objection, the Indian government filed a plea asking the Supreme Court to quash these petitions, saying that the "creation of a new social institution" is beyond the ambit of the judiciary.
The petition, filed by India's Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, calledsame-sex marriage an "urban elitist concept far removed from the social ethos of the country."Chandrachud, however, maintains that "people may be queer regardless of whether they are from small towns, urban or semi-urban areas." Mehta's petition argued that biological gender defined a person's gender, which was challenged by Chandrachud. "There is no absolute concept of a man or an absolute concept of a woman at all," he said.
The Narendra Modi-led government has staunchly maintained that the matter of same-sex marriages is best left to the legislature "to deliberate and decide upon." The Supreme Court's verdict comes nearly five years after the country decriminalized homosexuality. In September 2018 the five-judge Bench partially struck down Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code, decriminalizing same-sex relations between consenting adults. The bench then, however, clarified that theverdict should not be construed as "conferring any right, including the right to marry."

They call themselves, in a nod to The Godfather, the "five families". Five factions of the Republican Party, vying to bend the House Speaker, the capo di tutti of conservative America, to their will and thereby assume control of perhaps the world's most powerful chamber of democracy.
For months these groups made the vulnerable incumbent, Kevin McCarthy, contradictory offers he could not refuse. Then on October 3 he was ousted, setting off a frantic succession struggle from which no one has yet emerged victorious.

The original leading candidate, Steve Scalise, withdrew from contention last week after failing to gain the required 217 supporters. Now Jim Jordan, the Donald Trump-endorsed founder of the House Freedom Caucus, is the nominee, but 55 members voted against his confirmation in a secret ballot on Friday, and he is unlikely to swiftly unite the party behind him given his extreme right-wing positions.
Without a Speaker congressional business cannot take place and a government shutdown looms on November 17. The deadlock leaves vital affairs of state hanging in the balance.

Ohio congressman and former Ohio State assistant wrestling coach Jim Jordan has been accused of participating in the cover-up of widespread sexual abuse in OSU's wrestling program.
Jordan was accused by Adam DiSabato, who was the team captain in the late 1980s and early 1990s. DiSabato was appearing in front of a hearing in the Ohio legislature as a witness for House Bill 249, which would waive the statute of limitations and allow the OSU athletes who had been abused to sue the university.
DiSabato told the House Civil Justice Committee that several team officials, including Jordan, were aware that the team's open shower facilities put them at risk of being abused and harassed by a team doctor, but did nothing about it. Then DiSabato detailed a phone conversation between him and Jordan, in which Jordan asks DiSabato to help him cover up wrongdoing.
Via Cleveland.com:
[DiSabato] also said Jordan called him repeatedly in July 2018, after media outlets quoted his brother, Michael DiSabato, saying Strauss' abuse was common knowledge to those surrounding the wrestling program, including Jordan.
"Jim Jordan called me crying, groveling... begging me to go against my brother...That's the kind of cover-up that's going on there," he said.
"Are you guys going to do what you're voted to do?" he told lawmakers later. "That's the only reason I'm here."
Jordan's name has already come up in this scandal numerous times. When the news broke in April 2018 that Dr. Richard Strauss had been accused of sexually abusing over 150 OSU wrestlers between 1978 and 1998, Jordan denied knowing anything about it, despite being an assistant wrestling coach from 1987 to 1995.
Jordan continued to deny having any knowledge of student sexual abuse even after independent investigators released a report in May 2019 that concluded that Strauss, who had been employed by OSU's athletics department and student health center until he was suspended in 1996, abused at least 177 male student athletes and patients. Strauss died by suicide in 2005.
A spokesman for Jordan called DiSabato's accusations "a total lie."

>The secret backstory of how Obama let Hezbollah off the hook
And while the pursuit may be shadowed in secrecy, from Latin American luxury hotels to car parks in Africa to the banks and battlefields of the Middle East, the impact is not: In this case, multi-ton loads of cocaine entering the United States, and hundreds of millions of dollars going to a U.S.-designated terrorist organization with vast reach.
Obama had entered office in 2009 promising to improve relations with Iran as part of a broader rapprochement with the Muslim world. On the campaign trail, he had asserted repeatedly that the Bush administration's policy of pressuring Iran to stop its illicit nuclear program wasn't working, and that he would reach out to Tehran to reduce tensions.
The man who would become Obama's top counterterrorism adviser and then CIA director, John Brennan, went further. He recommended in a policy paper that "the next president has the opportunity to set a new course for relations between the two countries" through not only a direct dialogue, but "greater assimilation of Hezbollah into Lebanon's political system."
By May 2010, Brennan, then assistant to the president for homeland security and counterterrorism, confirmed in a speech that the administration was looking for ways to build up "moderate elements" within Hezbollah.
"Hezbollah is a very interesting organization," Brennan told a Washington conference, saying it had evolved from "purely a terrorist organization" to a militia and, ultimately, a political party with representatives in the Lebanese parliament and Cabinet, according to a Reuters report.
"There is certainly the elements of Hezbollah that are truly a concern to us what they're doing," Brennan said. "And what we need to do is to find ways to diminish their influence within the organization and to try to build up the more moderate elements."
In practice, the administration's willingness to envision a new role for Hezbollah in the Middle East, combined with its desire for a negotiated settlement to Iran's nuclear program, translated into a reluctance to move aggressively against the top Hezbollah operatives, according to Project Cassandra members and others.

Lebanese arms dealer Ali Fayad, a suspected top Hezbollah operative whom agents believed reported to Russian President Vladimir Putin as a key supplier of weapons to Syria and Iraq, was arrested in Prague in the spring of 2014. But for the nearly two years Fayad was in custody, top Obama administration officials declined to apply serious pressure on the Czech government to extradite him to the United States, even as Putin was lobbying aggressively against it.
Fayad, who had been indicted in U.S. courts on charges of planning the murders of U.S. government employees, attempting to provide material support to a terrorist organization and attempting to acquire, transfer and use anti-aircraft missiles, was ultimately sent to Beirut. He is now believed by U.S. officials to be back in business, and helping to arm militants in Syria and elsewhere with Russian heavy weapons.
Project Cassandra members say administration officials also blocked or undermined their efforts to go after other top Hezbollah operatives including one nicknamed the "Ghost," allowing them to remain active despite being under sealed U.S. indictment for years. People familiar with his case say the Ghost has been one of the world's biggest cocaine traffickers, including to the U.S., as well as a major supplier of conventional and chemical weapons for use by Syrian President Bashar Assad against his people.

A lot of people are buzzing about how items from the Rothschild family's private collection will be up for auction for the first time.
In 2018, there was an auction that sold off items from David & Peggy Rockefeller's collection that raked in over $800 million and broke records.
In the last year there have been two auctions that sold off items from the Ann & Gordon getty collection that also broke records. Ann passed away in 2020; however, Gordon is still alive.
Does anyone find it strange that some of the richest old money family dynasties are auctioning off their fortunes?

Finally! Obama, Bill Clinton break days-long silence on Israel war
Former Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton issued statements Monday evening condemning Hamas' bloody blitz on Israel - more than two full days after the terrorist atrocity began.
"All Americans should be horrified and outraged by the brazen terrorist attacks on Israel and the slaughter of innocent civilians," Obama wrote on X, formerly Twitter, soon after 5 p.m.
"We grieve for those who died, pray for the safe return of those who've been held hostage, and stand squarely alongside our ally, Israel, as it dismantles Hamas," he continued. "As we support Israel's right to defend itself against terror, we must keep striving for a just and lasting peace for Israelis and Palestinians alike."
Obama famously had an icy relationship with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who gave a speech to the GOP-led House of Representatives in 2015 assailing the 44th president's Iran nuclear agreement.
Almost exactly one hour later, Clinton weighed in.
"I condemn the horrific terrorist assault carried out by Hamas in Israel, and mourn the senseless loss of life. My heart is with all those affected by the violence, including American families. Now is a time for the world to rally against terrorism and to support Israeli democracy," the 42nd president said in his own X post.
"I stand with the government of Israel and all Israelis, and urge them to stand together. This is a moment to focus on purpose over politics."
Clinton helped broker the mid-1990s Oslo Accords between the Palestinians and Israelis, which ultimately failed to usher in peace between the two sides.
While her husband stayed silent, Hillary Clinton decried the terrorist attacks on Sunday afternoon.
President Biden castigated Hamas' attack and affirmed US support for the Jewish State.

"My prayers are with everyone affected by the horrific attacks by Hamas in Israel," wrote the former first lady, senator from New York, and secretary of state. "The United States stands in strong support of our ally, today and every day."
Meanwhile, former presidents Donald Trump, 77, George W. Bush, also 77, and Jimmy Carter, 99, or their foundations have all issued statements in support of the Jewish state.
The Carter Center said in a statement Sunday that it "strongly condemns the targeting of Israeli and Palestinian civilians and calls for genuine dialogue as well as international collective action to halt hostilities in the region."
Former President Barack Obama broke his silence on the War in Israel on Monday.
The George W. Bush Presidential Center in Texas said it "strongly condemns the heinous terrorist attacks on Israel that claimed scores of innocent civilians. We urge the United States and our allies to stand unequivocally with Israel, its government and people, and support Israel's right to defend itself against these threats."
Trump, who is seeking a second term as president, quickly decried the violence in his own statement: "These Hamas attacks are a disgrace, and Israel has every right to defend itself with overwhelming force."
Biden has delivered public remarks on the situation and deployed American warships to the region in response to the bloodshed.
"The United States unequivocally condemns this appalling assault against Israel by Hamas terrorists from Gaza, and I made clear to Prime Minister Netanyahu that we stand ready to offer all appropriate means of support to the Government and people of Israel," the president said Saturday afternoon in brief comments from the State Dining Room.
Hamas, a Palestinian terrorist group largely concentrated in the Gaza Strip, caught Israeli defenses off-guard with a barrage of thousands of rockets and ground attacks at daybreak.
At least 900 Israelis are believed to have died in the bloody violence with an estimated 2,600 wounded, according to Israel's Army Radio.
So far Biden has confirmed 11 Americans were killed and admitted it is "likely" US citizens have been taken hostage.
Israel's cabinet has declared war for the first time in 50 years and launched airstrikes on Gaza ahead of an expected ground attack.

Israel bombs Hamas sites hidden in mosques - IDF
Israeli warplanes have struck two mosques in the Gaza Strip that allegedly housed Hamas command centers used to direct the militant group's ongoing major offensive.
"Fighter jets attacked two operational infrastructures that were located in mosques and were used by the terrorist organization Hamas to direct terror against the state of Israel," the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said in an operational update posted early Sunday. The IDF claimed that Hamas was using the holy sites and the civilian population of the Gaza Strip to evade Israel's response to the surprise attacks launched by the group on Saturday.
Israel has cut off electricity service to the Palestinian territory and carried out dozens of air strikes against Hamas targets after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared that the country is at war with the militant group. The PM vowed in a televised address on Saturday night to "take revenge for this black day" and turn all of the sites used by Hamas in the Gaza Strip into "ruins."

"All the places that Hamas hides in, operates in, we will turn into ruins," Netanyahu said. He urged civilians in the area to "get out of there now."
The fighting began early Saturday, when Hamas launched rockets into Israel and infiltrated villages in the southern part of the country with militants. Local media reports said more than 300 Israelis had been killed, and nearly 1,600 were wounded. Dozens of Israeli civilians and troops were captured and taken to Gaza. Rocket attacks against Israel continued into Saturday night.
Israel's retaliatory strikes against Hamas killed more than 230 and injured almost 1,800, according to the Gaza health ministry.
Hamas deputy chief Saleh al-Arouri told Al Jazeera that the group had captured so many Israelis, including senior officers, that it expected to negotiate a prisoner swap for the release of the thousands of Palestinians incarcerated in Israel's jails. Al Jazeera television showed a residential tower apparently being hit in an Israeli air strike while one of its journalists was doing a live report from the scene in central Gaza City.

FTX Co-Founder and Star Witness Gary Wang Spills His Guts, Says He and Sam Bankman-Fried Committed Fraud
Gary Wang said on Thursday that he committed various forms of fraud during the court case against disgraced former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried.
Wang, who served as the chief technical officer at FTX, told the court that with Bankman-Fried, he committed, "Wire fraud, commodities fraud, securities fraud."

The FTX co-founder is considered one of the prosecution's star witnesses and said he committed the crimes alongside Bankman-Fried, Caroline Ellison, and Nishad Singh, the other leaders of FTX.
Ellison, who was Bankman-Fried's one-again-off-again girlfriend, led Alameda Research, the hedge fund associated with the company. Singh was a top FTX engineer and both have admitted their guilt relating to the various alleged crimes committed by the top brass at FTX.
Wang testified about the relationship between FTX and Alameda, saying, "We gave special privileges to Alameda Research which allowed it to withdraw unlimited amounts of funds from the platform (FTX) and lied about this to the public."
He explained that before FTX collapsed, Alameda had borrowed $8 billion from FTX, which was money belonging to FTX customers. Wang said that Alameda was given a $65 billion credit line which gave the hedge fund a huge advantage over other investors.

Bankman-Fried stands accused of seven counts of fraud, conspiracy, and money laundering on his alleged use of FTX customer funds to cover the losses of his hedge fund, Alameda Research. He also allegedly used those funds to purchase real estate and cover other personal expenses. Bankman-Fried pled not guilty to all counts and faces up to 110 years in prison.
Bankman-Fried's defense counsel argued on Wednesday that the former FTX CEO and Democrat megadonor is nothing more than a "math nerd who didn't drink or party" and "didn't steal from anyone."
The defense counsel said, "Rather, you will learn that Sam believed, reasonably believed, that loans that FTX made to Alameda were permitted and backed by reasonable security and collateral."

Government shutdown: House passes short-term spending deal
By Bob D'Angelo, Cox Media Group National Content Desk
September 30, 2023 at 2:47 pm EDT
( Drew Angerer/getty Images)
WASHINGTON - A last-ditch effort by the House of Representatives to prevent a government shutdown passed on Saturday. The continuing resolution provides a short-term deal to extend funding for 45 days.
The bill, which now goes to the Senate, passed by a 335-91 margin and included overwhelming support by House Democrats. Republicans voted 126-90 to pass the measure, while Democrats approved the bill by a 209-1 margin. Seven members of the House did not vote.
The only Democrat to vote against was Rep. Mike Quigley of Illinois, according to CNN.
If the bill passes in the Senate, then funding will be extended through Nov. 17. After Saturday's vote, the House adjourned until Monday.
The bill omits aid to Ukraine but increased federal disaster assistance by $16 billion, according to The Associated Press. There was also an extension of reauthorization for the Federal Aviation Administration, The Washington Post reported.
If the Senate rejects the House bill and does not have a deal in place to extend funding by 12:01 a.m. EDT on Sunday, the federal government will experience its 22nd shutdown or funding gap since 1976.
H.R. 5860, a 71-page bill, came to the floor under suspension of the rules, which meant that it needed a two-thirds vote in the House to pass. Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., needed support from Democrats to pass the resolution, and they gave it to the embattled speaker.
An attempt by Democrats to adjourn to further study the bill failed by a 427-0 vote early Saturday afternoon. Later, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., spoke in the House and criticized Republicans for "dropping a bill on us at the eleventh hour."
"I rise today to have a conversation with the American people," Jeffries said. "So strap in, because this may take a little while."
Because of the bipartisan deal, McCarthy's speakership could be in jeopardy, CNN reported. Far-right members of the Republican caucus, including Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., have said that such a move would trigger a motion to vacate the chair and force a vote to oust the Speaker.
"If I have to risk my job for standing up for the American public, I will do that," McCarthy said. "If someone wants to remove me, then so be it."
"I would say it's on some tenuous ground," Gaetz told reporters on Saturday, according to CNN.
Hours before the shutdown, the House had announced plans on Saturday to vote on a 45-day short-term spending bill, called a continuing resolution, which would include natural disaster aid that the White House sought, The Washington Post reported. That would keep the government open through Nov. 17.
If the government shuts down, gates at national parks will be locked, rangers will be furloughed
McCarthy met with House Republicans for a private meeting at the Capitol on Saturday morning, the Times reported.
It did not include billions of dollars that President Joe Biden had sought, House Rules Chairman Tom Cole, R-Okla., told reporters.
"Let's not overcomplicate the matter," Cole said before the vote. "Let's keep the government open."
Government shutdown: There have been 21 shutdowns or funding gaps in US history
McCarthy attempted to break the deadlock on Friday afternoon but was voted down by a 232-210 margin, The New York Times reported. Twenty-one Republicans defected to vote with Democrats to defeat Friday's measure.
Friday's proposal sought to keep the government open for 30 days, with up to 29% of cuts to government programs, according to the newspaper. The cuts did not include areas like veterans, homeland security or natural disaster response.
Jeffries in a speech in the House on Saturday, called Friday's proposal "draconian" and said that Saturday's measure was similar in its scope.
The proposal did direct the secretary of homeland security to resume "all activities related to the construction of the border wall" at the southern border that were in place under former President Donald Trump, the Times reported.

House passes first GOP spending bills in months as shutdown nears
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy. Photo: Drew Angerer/getty Images.
The Republican-controlled House on Thursday passed three annual appropriations bills after a months-long standstill, but Congress is still hurtling toward a government shutdown.
Why it matters: Republicans hope that by coalescing around spending bills they can amass leverage in negotiations with the Senate that will produce the bills actually geared towards keeping the government funded.
What happened: The House passed three out of the four Republican appropriations bills voted on late Thursday night - the first such measures to pass since the August recess.
State Department and Foreign Operations: Passed 216-212, with right-wing Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) and centrist Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-Pa.) voting with Democrats against the bill.
Defense: Passed 218-210, with centrist Reps. Jared Golden (D-Maine) and Marie Gluesenkamp P?rez (D-Wa.) voting with the GOP for the bill and right-wing Reps. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) and Ken Buck (R-Colo.) voting with Democrats against it.
Homeland Security: Passed 220-208, with Golden and Gluesenkamp Perez voting with Republicans in favor of the bill.
Agriculture and FDA: Failed 191-237, with 27 Republicans voting against it - mostly moderates who oppose language restricting abortion pill access and rural members opposed to spending cuts.
The intrigue: The House also voted 311-117 to pass a standalone, $300 million supplemental aid package to Ukraine, which also establishes a special inspector general to oversee Ukraine assistance funding.
The measure was stripped out of the defense bill to placate Greene, one of the House GOP's staunchest opponents of U.S. assistance to the Ukrainian war effort.
In a sign of growing antipathy within the GOP towards Ukraine, more than half of House Republicans voted against it, with more than twice as many Democrats as Republicans voting for it.
What's next: On Friday, the House is expected to move on to trying to pass a party-line Republican measure to temporarily extend federal funding, known as a continuing resolution.
However, enough Republicans have ruled out voting for a continuing resolution to make it seemingly impossible for one to pass along party lines.
The Senate is trying to advance a bipartisan stopgap bill, but is running into hurdles put up by its conservative members.
Given Democratic control of the Senate, any continuing resolution will have to be the product of talks between the two chambers - but that dynamic holds considerable personal risk for House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.).
The big picture: A continuing resolution just provides breathing room - for anywhere between a few months to a few days - as both chambers still have a considerable number of actual appropriations bills to pass.
House Republicans have passed four out of 12 appropriations bills - the three voted on Thursday, plus military construction and veterans affairs, which passed in July. The Senate hasn't passed any.
But the appropriations bills passed by the House are filled with right-wing policy riders and mostly kept spending at 2022 levels; lower than the budget caps set out in both the bipartisan debt ceiling deal and the appropriations bills marked up in the Senate.
That leaves the two sides far behind schedule and far apart from each other with little runway - or, in McCarthy's case, leeway - to reach and then pass a deal before Oct. 1.
Go deeper: McCarthy's personal peril intensifies funding fight

Assistant U.S. Attorney Lesley Wolf of Delaware, accused of stonewalling federal agents building a criminal case against Hunter Biden, is a lifelong Democrat who previously worked for a major liberal law firm.
Wolf, who began working as an Assistant U.S. Attorney in the Delaware District in 2006, told Biden and his attorneys that IRS agents wanted to search his storage locker in northern Virginia, IRS agent Gary Shapley and another whistleblower testified. She also allegedly shut down agents' proposal to search a guesthouse on Joe Biden's Delaware property where Hunter had been living off and on, and participated in a meeting where attorneys suggested departures from Justice Department protocol.
Before joining the DOJ, Wolf clerked for U.S. District Court Judge Anita Brody, a George H.W. Bush appointee. She also worked as an associate at corporate law firm Ropes & Gray. Ninety-one percent of the firm's political donations went to Democrats between 2017 and 2020, University of Iowa law professor Derek Muller found, making it the 39th-most liberal of the 100 biggest law firms in the country.
Ropes & Gray employees recently published an article in Bloomberg Law arguing that firms should employ "equity audits" to determine whether or not enough minority employees occupy senior positions. Without the audits, they say, diversity, equity, and inclusion trainings are likely to fail

Murray bought the tunnels from the British telecommunications company BT Group. The tunnels have been owned by the company since 1986, per the BBC.
"Where can you get 8,000 square meters of historic novelty in London, that's got a billion-dollar reconstruction valuation?" Murray told Bloomberg.

"Where can you get 8,000 square meters of historic novelty in London, that's got a billion-dollar reconstruction valuation?" Murray told Bloomberg.
The tunnels were built in 1940 and are located about 100 feet under central London, per the BBC.
The tunnels were built to be used as air raid shelters during World War Two before being used by the UK's foreign intelligence service, MI6, per the BBC. The tunnels were later used as a telephone exchange center between the White House and the Kremlin during the Cold War, per the BBC.
Some urban explorers have documented their walkthroughs of the tunnels and the rooms they've found.
Murray told Bloomberg his proposed ideas for the space include working with entertainment giants like Warner Bros. Discovery on movie-themed exhibits, to providing a slice of history to visitors by restoring artifacts in the tunnel.
Murray's company, The London Tunnels, says it intends to construct the "deepest licensed bar" in London within the tunnels.
"Imagine feeling the London Underground thundering directly above you, where 'shaken, not stirred' Vesper Martinis could be served 40 meters below ground," read Murray's company website.
The Kingsway Telephone Exchange is but one of the many tunnels under London. The London Transport Museum frequently hosts tours of such abandoned underground stations.
Murray is bullish on his investment. He told Bloomberg that the spruced-up tunnels would be a sure draw for tourists.
"Would I compare this to be as iconic as the London Eye? Yes, I would. Who wouldn't come here?" Murray told Bloomberg during a tour of the tunnels last month.
Representatives for The London Tunnels did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Insider sent outside regular business hours.

'No Default, No Revenue Share:' Google Antitrust Trial Puts Pressure Tactics in the Spotlight
The ongoing landmark antitrust trial against Google is shedding light on the internet giant's relentless effort to dominate online search, revealing the company's strategic maneuvers and exclusive deals with major partners like Apple and Samsung to secure its position as the default search engine on a global scale.
The Wall Street Journal reports that Google, the tech giant that facilitates approximately 90 percent of all online searches, has been under the microscope, thanks to the ongoing antitrust trial against the company. The Justice Department alleges that Google has maintained this position through illegal, restrictive agreements, providing a rare glimpse into the intricate web of partnerships and negotiations that have underpinned Google's rise to prominence.
Sundar Pichai CEO of Google ( Carsten Koall /getty)
The trial has exposed how Google leveraged its advantage in conversations with Apple, a key partner, to ensure its search engine remained the default choice on most smartphones worldwide. Back in 2005, Google proposed a lucrative deal to Apple, offering a portion of advertising revenue to make its search engine the default choice on desktop computers. This move was pivotal, considering Google's search engine supports an advertising business that raked in $162 billion last year, constituting a significant portion of the revenue at its parent company.
In an instance revealed at the trial, Apple, seeking to present users with several options for the default search engine, was met with a stern response from Google, stating, "No default-no revenue share." This hardball tactic led Apple to abandon the idea, a decision that has not been revisited since, according to DOJ lead trial attorney Kenneth Dintzer.
The revelations extend beyond Apple, touching upon Google's interactions with Samsung. The trial highlighted how Google influenced Samsung's design tweaks related to default search engines, ensuring users found it challenging to switch away from Google's search engine. When Samsung's design modifications made it easier for users to change default search engines, Google, alleging a violation of their agreement, compelled Samsung to roll back the changes.
The trial also underscored the impact of Google's default agreements on other search engine providers. Gabriel Weinberg, CEO of DuckDuckGo, testified that these agreements effectively blocked his company's ability to gain market share, emphasizing the challenges faced by competitors in a landscape dominated by Google.

Can Joe Biden be made cooler online? One group's $70 million bet on yes

Move over Dark Brandon, this group wants to make Joe Cool a new meme
ProgressNow is betting that improving Biden's online presence
- through memes, videos, and other social media images - will help win over voters.

A major liberal group has drawn up a multimillion-dollar plan to make Joe Biden cooler online. And the initiative has the blessing of a top White House official.
ProgressNow is launching a $70 million project to help the president and down-ballot Democrats win the war for voters' digital attention. The idea is to create, in their own words, an "echo chamber" on the left. At its heart, it is an effort to compete with one they say already operates on all cylinders on the right.
More broadly, it represents an important test of whether Democrats can successfully market the oldest president ever to an electorate that has consistently expressed reservations about his age and wished that another person would be the party's standard-bearer, according to polls.
The center of ProgressNow's plan is an app that the group has developed called Megaphone. Users who download the app can scroll through a series of liberal memes, videos, and graphics created by the organization, add their own captions, and then quickly share them on social media platforms.
"ProgressNow has become an important partner to the groups supporting the Biden-Harris agenda," said Anita Dunn, a senior White House adviser and top 2020 Biden strategist who added she was providing her comment personally. Ramping up "ensures they will be in an even stronger position to deliver compelling digital communications to people in their communities through a grassroots network that effectively complements efforts in 2024 and beyond."
Inherent in the ProgressNow strategy is the fact that liberals have been outmaneuvered online by the conservative movement for years, something the group's leaders readily admit
- and that more than a decade after former President Barack Obama was supposed to have ushered in a new form of voter communication, the party has been uninventive under Biden.

India suspends visas for Canadians as row escalates
India has stopped issuing visas to Canadian citizens amid an escalating row over the killing of a Sikh separatist on Canadian soil.
India said the temporary move was due to "security threats" disrupting work at its missions in Canada. Canada's visa services remain open in India.
Tensions flared this week after Canada's leader said India may have been involved in the 18 June killing.
India angrily rejected the allegation calling it "absurd".
Relations between the countries - key trade and security partners, and US allies - have been strained for months. Analysts say they are now at an all-time low.
India's government swiftly made clear the suspension of visa services also "applies to Canadians in a third country".
"There have been threats made to our high commission [embassy] and consulates in Canada," a foreign affairs ministry spokesman in Delhi said. "This has disrupted their normal functioning. Accordingly [they] are temporarily unable to process visa applications."
He said: "India is looking for parity in rank and diplomatic strength between the diplomatic missions of the two countries. This is being sought because of Canadian diplomatic interference in our internal affairs."
Hours earlier Canada had announced it was reducing its personnel in India, saying some diplomats had received threats on social media.
"In light of the current environment where tensions have heightened, we are taking action to ensure the safety of our diplomats," a statement said.
The two countries have historic close ties - and much is at stake.
Canada has 1.4 million people of Indian origin - more than half of them Sikhs - making up 3.7% of the country's population, according to the 2021 census. India also sends the highest number of international students to Canada - in 2022, they made up 40% of total overseas students at 320,000.
According to Indian government statistics, about 80,000 Canadian tourists visited India in 2021, behind only the US, Bangladesh and UK.

The row burst into the open on Monday after Canada linked India with the murder of separatist leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar, a Canadian citizen who was shot dead in his vehicle by two masked gunmen outside a Sikh temple in British Columbia.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Canada's intelligence agencies were investigating whether "agents of the government of India" were involved in the killing of Nijjar - who India designated a terrorist in 2020.
India reacted strongly, saying Canada was trying to "shift the focus from Khalistani terrorists and extremists" who had been given shelter there. The Indian government has often reacted sharply to demands by Sikh separatists in Western countries for Khalistan, or a separate Sikh homeland.
The Khalistan movement peaked in India in the 1980s with a violent insurgency centred in Sikh-majority Punjab state.
It was quelled by force and has little resonance in India now, but is still popular among some in the Sikh diaspora in countries such as Canada, Australia and the UK.

Need to show the why we are zeroing in on the period between 24DEC2013 and 26DEC2013, for the EMBANKMENT pics at least. Those are: LISA, the NSA traf, ROT and CH series pics.
LISAMI6 shows the Millbank Bldg with a building lights config that matches a series of getty pics taken by a photog named Setterfield on 25DEC2013 (sunset).
Conceivably, the building light pattern could have persisted from when the last worker left the building on Christmas Eve, thru Christmas, thru Boxing Day (day after Christmas) til morning of 27DEC2013 (people back to work = office lights change)

As for the Embankment pics, many markers were used to steer us towards Christmas 2013: the paint on the funnel of Tattershall Castle changed in 2015. The blue Boris bikes seen in the Corinthia Hotel/ROT1 pics were changed out in April 2014. A certain white backlit at night for night time construction shroud at Westminster Palace (Parliament) existed from NOV2013 to JAN2014. A building light pattern on a building seen in background of LISAMI6 which matches a series of getty pics taken on 25DEC.
The lesser known important markers for non-UK Bread anons: The Moon in ROT1 @ a bearing of 151.5 degrees. The dolphin next to the RS HISPANIOLA seen at a position relative to the ship indicates a very high tide kevel. (Note: we never found a picture of the RS Hispaniola riding higher relative to her dolphin.) Just the one picture, ROT1 has two time markers, a Moon at 151.5 degrees and a night time high tide, that can be used together to bracket a time of the day during a 3-day time period between Christmas Eve and Boxing Day (the day after Christmas).

Nolte: Donald Trump Tops Joe Biden in RealClearPolitics Poll of Polls

JOHN NOLTE14 Sep 2023161

Former President Donald Trump now leads His Fraudulency Joe Biden in the RealClearPolitics poll that averages all the most recent national polls.
Currently, the former president enjoys 44.8 support to Joe Biden's 44.4 percent.
This is notable for one important reason... Not once during the 2020 presidential election cycle did Trump lead Biden nationally. Not for a single day. But in the 2024 election cycle, Trump has consistently led or been nipping at Biden's heels since early April.
So far this year, Biden's biggest lead over Trump in this poll of polls has been only two points-which lasted a very short time. Trump has led Biden by as much as 2.5 points.
Moreover, during the 2020 cycle, Biden never dipped below a four-point lead over his GOP rival. In fact, there were times he trounced Trump by double digits. Then, on Election Day 2020, Biden led Trump by a national average of 7.2 points and allegedly beat Trump by 4.5 points.
Back in 2020, in the dozens and dozens of national polls done between February and Election Day, Trump led Biden in exactly one poll, and only by a single point.
In this 2024 cycle, Trump has topped Biden in five of the last 12 national polls.
This clear change of fortune removes one of the primary arguments against Trump running for reelection-that he can't win. Currently, the establishment GOP's great hope is Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL). But DeSantis is losing to Biden by a national average of 3.8 points. In the last 12 national polls, DeSantis has not topped Biden even once. The Florida governor's best showing was a single poll that showed him tied with Slow Joe.

There is just no question that, at least for now, Trump is in a much better position than DeSantis to beat Biden. Additionally, Trump is in a much better position than he was himself in 2020 to beat Biden.
Also, and this is equally important, Trump lost the popular vote to Hillary Clinton by 2.1 points in 2016 and still won the presidency.
Finally, while Trump allegedly lost to Biden in 2020, do not forget this.... the former president won 74.2 million votes in 2020. That's seven million more than the previous record, Barry Obama's 65.9 million votes in 2012. That's 13.6 million more than Mitt Romey's 60.9 million in 2012. That's 14 million more than John McCain's 59.9 million in 2008.
Name a single Republican who could win seven million more votes than Barry Obama like Trump did.
What's changed regarding a rematch with Biden is obvious. On top of being too frail to serve lunch, much less as president, everything is worse under Biden-foreign policy, energy costs, child mutilation, destruction of women's sports, inflation, interest rates, the wide-open border, crime... I'm missing a few, but you get the point.
Hey, but at least there are no mean tweets.

Several scientists at the Wuhan lab also became sick in the fall of 2019 with symptoms "consistent with but not diagnostic of COVID-19," the report states.
The CIA and one other intelligence agency "remain unable to determine the precise origin of the COVID-19 pandemic, as both hypotheses rely on significant assumptions or face challenges with conflicting reporting," it says.

But some former US intelligence officials have disagreed with the assessment. In April, former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe told Congress that the so-called "lab leak theory" was the "only" credible explanation for the pandemic, which has since claimed the lives of nearly 7 million people across the globe, according to the World Health Organization.
"My informed assessment as a person with as much access as anyone to our government's intelligence ... has been and continues to be that a lab leak is the only explanation credibly supported by our intelligence, by science and by common sense," Ratcliffe told the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic in a hearing.
"If our intelligence and evidence supporting a lab leak was placed side by side with our intelligence and evidence pointing to a natural origins or spillover theory, the lab leak side of the ledger would be long, convincing, even overwhelming - while the spillover side would be nearly empty and tenuous," added Ratcliffe, a former Texas Republican congressman who served as President Donald Trump's second and last director of national intelligence.

https://nypost.com/2023/09/12/cia-tried-to-pay-off-analysts-to-bury-covid-lab-leak-findings-whistleblower/
The Central Intelligence Agency offered to pay off analysts in order to bury their findings that COVID-19 most likely leaked from a lab in Wuhan, China, new whistleblower testimony to Congress alleges.
A senior-level CIA officer told House committee leaders that his agency tried to pay off six analysts who found SARS-CoV-2 likely originated in a Wuhan lab if they changed their position and said the virus jumped from animals to humans, according to a letter sent Tuesday to CIA Director William Burns.
Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic Chairman Brad Wenstrup (R-Ohio) and Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence Chairman Mike Turner (R-Ohio) requested all documents, communications and pay info from the CIA's COVID Discovery Team by Sept. 26.
"According to the whistleblower, at the end of its review, six of the seven members of the Team believed the intelligence and science were sufficient to make a low confidence assessment that COVID-19 originated from a laboratory in Wuhan, China," the House panel chairmen wrote.

"The seventh member of the Team, who also happened to be the most senior, was the lone officer to believe COVID-19 originated through zoonosis."
"The whistleblower further contends that to come to the eventual public determination of uncertainty, the other six members were given a significant monetary incentive to change their position," they said, noting that the analysts were "experienced officers with significant scientific expertise."
Wenstrup and Turner also asked for documents and communications between the CIA and other federal agencies, including the State Department, the FBI, the Department of Health and Human Services and the Energy Department.

In a separate letter, the House committee leaders identified former CIA chief operating officer Andrew Makridis as having "played a central role" in the COVID investigation and asked him to sit for a transcribed interview.
"At CIA we are committed to the highest standards of analytic rigor, integrity, and objectivity. We do not pay analysts to reach specific conclusions," CIA Director of Public Affairs Tammy Kupperman Thorp told The Post in a statement. "We take these allegations extremely seriously and are looking into them. We will keep our Congressional oversight committees appropriately informed."
Makridis did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The FBI was the first US intelligence agency to conclude the COVID-19 pandemic most likely originated with a lab leak. In February, the Energy Department also concluded a lab leak was likely, based on new intelligence.
Andrew Makridis
In a separate letter, the House committee leaders identified former CIA chief operating officer Andrew Makridis as having "played a central role" in the probe and asked to interview him.
The US intelligence community declassified its 10-page reporton COVID origins in June, which found "biosafety concerns" and "genetic engineering" taking place at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, but most of its "agencies assess that SARS-CoV-2 was not genetically engineered."

Anyone who looks at the ADL Board of Directors and has some awareness of the key players in the Censorship Industrial Complex will be struck by one member, in particular, Yasmin Green. Green is the CEO of Google Jigsaw, an internal group at the Big Tech company founded by Jared Cohen, who worked at the State Department under both the Bush and Obama administrations.
Jigsaw developed the "Redirect Method" and has worked with ADL to steer Google users toward videos that would "undermine extremist narratives" as a late-stage "War on Terror" program. Green is also a senior advisor on innovation to the private intelligence firm Oxford Analytica and a member of the Aspen Institute's Cybersecurity Group, two key Censorship Industrial Complex leaders.
Today, ADL's ties to intelligence and security organizations are closer than ever. It works with the FBI by holding a training session with agents and hosting FBI Director Christopher Wray as a featured speaker. According to Greenblatt, the FBI works directly with ADL "every day."

Fauci Finally Admits in New Interview That Masks Don't Work
The truth comes out
Ian Miller
Apr 25, 2023
Over the past three years, Dr. Fauci has been the face of masks and their associated mandates.
Fauci initially told the public, confidently, that masks were ineffective and unnecessary. In doing so, he followed years of scientific evidence and research that confirmed masks were ineffective when worn by the general population.
Unmasked
If Masks Work, Why Didn't We Plan to Use Them?
For many in today's world, "believe in science" has become a quasi-religious mantra. Masks are the rosary beads, Fauci is the pope, the CDC is the Church, the World Health Organization is Vatican City, and guidance from both organizations is the Bible. Think I'm exaggerating? Just look at what happened with corporations and Governors after the CDC adjus...

But just a few weeks later, with no new randomized controlled trials, no new data or evidence to justify it, he completely flip flopped.
Masks instantly became a vitally important, necessary tool to prevent the spread of COVID. First, he claimed that they were meant as source control, to stop people from infecting others.
Then, he said that masks were protective for the wearer as well. All based on low quality evidence that intellectually honest observers would safely disregard.
After reality continually proved him wrong, he then moved to recommending that the public should wear two masks.
He provided no evidence for that claim, only that it was "common sense" and would "likely" be more effective.
Fauci defended indefinite mandates, saying he disagreed with people who believed masking should be a choice. He defended forcibly masking children, based on nothing but his immense desire to compel behavior.
But now that mandates are over and he's moved on to the next phase of his career, profiteering from his objectively disgraceful performance during the pandemic, the truth can be told, apparently.

Many of the GOP's biggest donors are among those who funneled anonymous contributions to former U.N ambassador Nikki Haley's nonprofit as she lays the groundwork for a prospective 2024 presidential bid, according to previously unreported tax documents obtained by POLITICO.
Haley's nonprofit policy advocacy group, Stand For America, Inc., has received major donations from people including New York hedge fund manager Paul Singer, investor Stanley Druckenmiller, and Miriam Adelson and her late husband, casino mogul Sheldon Adelson, the Internal Revenue Service filings reveal.
The roster of supporters who gave undisclosed donations in 2019 also includes Suzanne Youngkin, the wife of Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin, himself a possible presidential contender; former Pennsylvania Senate candidate and hedge fund executive David McCormick; and Vivek and Lakshmi Garipalli, members of a New Jersey family that has donated large sums to Democrats - but which gave Haley's organization $1 million.
The donor list also includes dozens of people who gave anonymously to Haley's nonprofit but have not given disclosed contributions to her PAC, which was formed two years later and is required to regularly disclose the names of donors who give at least $200. Those contributors include the Garipallis and GOP megadonor Joe Ricketts.
Like other nonprofits, Stand For America files an annual tax return with the IRS. While the agency and the nonprofit must make those filings available to the public, including the amounts of contributions to the group, such nonprofits do not have to disclose the identities of their donors.
However, the organization Documented, which describes itself as a nonpartisan government watchdog that investigates money in politics, obtained an unredacted copy of Stand For America's 2019 filings, which it then shared with POLITICO. The group did not share the original source of the filing, but it bears a stamp from the charity office of the New York state attorney general.
The disclosures provide the clearest picture yet of how a prospective 2024 presidential candidate is cultivating a secret network of high-dollar contributors as she builds a political apparatus. And the names of her donors demonstrate the deep connections Haley has formed at the top levels of the Republican Party, with some of the GOP's biggest super PAC donors among those who gave money to fund the launch of her organization after she left the Trump administration.
Haley is among at least a dozen other would-be White House hopefuls- including former President Donald Trump and former Vice President Mike Pence - who also have allied nonprofits bankrolled by donors whose identities have remained under wraps.

2:15 PM - Thursday, August 24, 2023
A new poll has revealed the top reasons why over half the marriages in the United States result in divorce.
According to a survey done by Forbes Advisor, the top reasons married couples choose to divorce each other are due to lack of family support, infidelity, and compatibility.
The survey polled 1,000 Americans who are divorced or in the process of getting a divorce.
34% of respondents said their marriage was ended due to an affair and 21% of survey respondents said disapproval of a spouse by family or friends was a sign the marriage was at risk.
Furthermore, 59% of people who divorced within the first year of being married said the reasoning was due to lack of compatibility.
The data also showed a staggering 63% of respondents claiming if they had a better understanding of the commitment of marriage before going through with it they could have saved their partnership.
Another eye opening response was 56% of participants said if they had a better understanding of their significant others values and morals it could have helped them avoid divorce.
According to Lisa Marie Bobby, psychologist and founder of Growing Self Counseling and Coaching in Denver, couples focus too much on sexual chemistry instead of compatibility.
"When people are dating and figuring out who they want to be with, chemistry is one part of that puzzle," she said. "But you should be thinking more about: Is this person emotionally safe? Are they honest? Are they reliable? Are they a good friend? Are they here for me?"
The survey also revealed 44% of participants said waiting to start a family could have saved their marriage.

Trump Is Not Guilty Of Racketeering; The Deep State Is
Six worrisome things for which the Deep State must be held accountable for.
Abe Vigoda and Robert Duvall watch Marlon Brando and Al Lettieri shake hands in a scene from the film 'The Godfather', 1972. A "racket" is any organized criminal scheme like the ones favored by the Mafia in the early 20th century: prostitution, gambling, the "numbers racket" (illegal lotteries), "rum running" during Prohibition and the "protection racket," in which the mob offers businesses paid "protection" from criminal gangs, notably themselves. Photo: Paramount/getty images
Fani Willis, the district attorney in Fulton County, Ga, charged former President Donald Trump and 18 colleagues with racketeering under Georgia's RICO law. The charge is that he conspired with them to overturn the 2020 Georgia presidential election results.
Experienced lawyers, such as those at Bochetto & Lentz, a law firm that says it specializes in "messy, complicated, high-pressure, and high-stakes cases," highlight the benefits of using RICO statutes, which enable prosecutors to tie numerous crimes into one case, even if they have covered an extensive period. The person who didn't "pull the trigger, set a fire, or commit a burglary" can be charged under RICO laws. It is little wonder that RICO has been traditionally used against the Mob.
The Left is so desperate to get Trump that Willis outlines a broad 97-page indictment alleging that he corralled his colleagues across state lines in Arizona and Pennsylvania, among others, to plan and execute a sophisticated criminal scheme to overturn the people's will, all within 56 days. The AP called the election for Biden on November 7. Trump called Georgia's Secretary of State on January 2, 2021.
We counter that if anyone needs to be charged with criminal racketeering conduct in 2020, it should be the Deep State that should be indicted. Here are six extraordinary examples of collusion that propelled candidate Biden who had lost the first three primary races to miraculously become the Democratic nominee and then win the general election, though he hardly ever left his Delaware basement.
Election law changes. The number of people in 2020 who voted absentee in states with little experience with no-excuse mail-in balloting and drop-boxes was mind-boggling. In states Democrats controlled (like New Jersey), they had the laws changed to send absentee ballots to every registered voter, not just on request. In states where the Left had no legislative control (Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Wisconsin), they filed over 145 lawsuits alleging that Covid shutdowns would disproportionately disenfranchise minorities and other communities of color. The remedies they sought and had approved by partisan secretaries of state and judges were relaxed rules to accept late mail-in ballots and eliminating restrictions to verify ballot signatures against voter rolls.
The failure of the justice system. History will record the failure of the William Barr Justice Department, which did not investigate those statewide election laws that pushed through ballot changes before the 2020 elections, and the various courts that never agreed to look at election integrity even though there was sufficient evidence of malpractice.
Suppressing Trump's good news stories. With Covid raging in the summer of 2020, a critical question was Trump's management of the pandemic and if an emergency vaccine would be ready soon. Trump kept insisting that extraordinary measures taken to speed through Stage-3 clinical trials would result in a vaccine shortly. The Left and the media scoffed. Pfizer announced on November 9, six days after the election, that a vaccine more than 90% effective in preventing COVID-19 had been found. If Pfizer had revealed this information ten days prior, the election could have turned to Trump.
Suppressing Biden's bad news stories. When the New York Post revealed the contents of Hunter Biden's laptop, abandoned at an iPhone repair shop, the media never pursued the story. Social media outlets - Facebook, Twitter - disallowed sharing of the NY Post series. Twitter even suspended the NY Post, the oldest newspaper in the United States. TIPP data shows that the election could have swung to Trump if this story had gained traction.

Q Research General #23833: It Was Always About Control Edition
hat's become of the presumption of innocence?
The question is an urgent one due to Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis's election interference case against Donald Trump and 18 others, which she has dubiously framed as a racketeering conspiracy.
Why has DA Willis invoked Georgia's version of the federal Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act, which is typically applied to mobsters engaged in the familiar rackets of murder, extortion, trafficking in narcotics and stolen goods, gambling, prostitution and so on? Because there's a giant hole in her case: the lack of a clear crime to which Trump and his co-defendants can plausibly be said to have agreed.
Let's put RICO to the side for a moment and focus on conspiracy. Very simply, a conspiracy is an agreement to violate a criminal statute. It takes two to tango, so a conspiracy must minimally involve a pair of people. Beyond that, though, it can involve three people, 19 people, 100 people - any number. Regardless of how many people are said to be implicated, however, there is always one requirement: There must be a meeting of the minds about the crime that is the objective of the conspiracy.
If prosecutors allege a large-scale conspiracy, various conspirators may play different roles. In a conspiracy to sell cocaine, for example, some people may handle importation; others handle sales or security, and still others, accounting and management of the cash proceeds. But what unites these role-players in a single conspiracy is the criminal objective - in our example, to sell cocaine. If there is no agreement about a crime, there is no conspiracy.
Usually, this is not a problem for prosecutors. While constitutional due process guarantees that every American is presumed innocent, it also dictates that no American can be charged with a crime and forced to stand trial unless there is probable cause that a crime has been committed.
As a result, even though prosecutors bear the burden of proving the case beyond a reasonable doubt before there can be a conviction, we can easily understand why the defendants have been charged. If they are charged with conspiracy, the indictment will clearly state the crime they allegedly agreed to commit - e.g., drug trafficking, bank robbery, murder, extortion. Whatever the objective crime may be, we understand that the prosecutors, the police, and the grand jury have established to the court's satisfaction that there is enough evidence to establish probable cause that the alleged conspirators agreed to commit a crime.

Trump Indicted in Georgia, His Fourth Set of Criminal Charges This Year
Why Georgia Is Donald Trump's Achilles Heel
Is There Life After Indictment for Donald Trump?
That is what's so strange about DA Willis's indictment. She alleges that the 19 people named in her indictment are guilty of conspiracy because they agreed to try to keep Donald Trump in power as president - specifically, to "change the outcome of the election in favor of Trump." Maybe they shared such an aim, maybe their 19 minds met regarding that objective, but in and of itself, trying to reverse the result of an election is not a crime. You may have noticed that neither Al Gore nor Stacey Abrams was ever led away in handcuffs.
To be clear, it's entirely possible that people can perform criminal acts in the pursuit of a lawful objective. If they do, they may be charged with those crimes - and if the crimes are serious, they should be charged. That, however, does not mean their overarching objective was a crime. And again, if you don't have two or more people agreeing on an objective that is a crime, you don't have a conspiracy.
Willis tries to get around this inconvenience in two ways, neither of which works.

The first is a tautology: She conclusively asserts, on page 14 of the indictment, that this was a "conspiracy to unlawfully change the outcome of the election in favor of Trump." That is, the lawful objective of changing the election outcome somehow becomes unlawful because she invokes the apparently talismanic word "unlawful." But there is no crime of unlawfully trying to change an election outcome - not in Georgia law nor any other American law.

Hurricane ? has Never hit California in Recorded History!
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/hurricane-hilary-2023-path-storm-california-forecast/
"It is rare - indeed nearly unprecedented in the modern record - to have a tropical system like this move through Southern California," said Greg Postel, a hurricane and storm specialist at the Weather Channel who has a doctorate in atmospheric sciences.
Latest storm coverage from CBS Los Angeles
How to prepare for hurricane season, according to weather experts
Hurricane Hilary was located about 285 miles southwest of the southern tip of the Mexican state of Baja California by Friday night, with maximum sustained winds of 130 mph, according to the National Hurricane Center. It was moving north northwest at 13 mph, the center said.
In its advisory, the NHC warned of "life-threatening and potentially catastrophic flooding likely over much of Baja California and the Southwestern U.S. this weekend and early next week."
The NCH has forecast that Hilary is expected to get close to the Baja California Peninsula's west coast this weekend, and will reach Southern California by Sunday night, when it is expected to weaken to a tropical storm.
A tropical storm is defined as having winds of at least 39 mph, according to the National Weather Service.
Forecasters said the storm is expected to produce 3 to 6 inches of rainfall, with maximum amounts of 10 inches, across portions of Mexico's Baja California Peninsula through Sunday night, with the possibility of flash flooding. The same rainfall amounts are expected across portions of southern California and southern Nevada.
Postel said there will likely be "damaging wind gusts," especially at higher elevations, in the area, and swells along the coast.
Hurricane watches and warnings are in effect for parts of Baja California. Tropical storm watches and warnings are in effect for parts of the peninsula as well in addition to parts of mainland Mexico.
"On the forecast track, the center of Hilary will move close to the west coast of the Baja California peninsula over the weekend and reach southern California by Sunday night," the hurricane center said.
"Hilary is expected to weaken to a tropical storm by Sunday afternoon before it reaches southern California," it said.
California was drenched by a historic amount of rain this winter after being hit with an unprecedented number of atmospheric rivers. Chris Heiser, emergency services director for the city of San Diego, told CBS News Friday that those storms may have helped prepare officials for what is to come from Hilary.
"That really allowed us to get a feel for what the impact of heavy rains and winds are," Heiser said. "But this one's got some unique features. The amount of rainfall is substantial, especially up in the mountains. And the majority of the population of San Diego is at the base of those mountains."
"We're looking at this to be a significant storm, possibly one of those that sets records, and so we're preparing accordingly," he added.
Capistrano Beach in the Orange County city of Dana Point Friday was one of several where crews were building berms to protect the coastal community from high surf.
"We're getting ready now ahead of this event as it makes landfall to make sure we're prepared," said Chris Dargan, a spokesperson for California Governor's Office of Emergency Services.

Which arm gets the Covid-19 booster may make a difference, study shows
When you go to get your newly updated Covid-19 booster this fall, you might want to choose the arm the vaccine goes in carefully.
The immune response may be stronger if your booster goes in the same arm as your last Covid-19 shot, according to a study published August 11 in the journal eBioMedicine.
"The question seems so banal, so trivial that nobody before has thought to ask it," study coauthor Martina Sester, a biologist and head of the department of the Institute of Infection Medicine at Saarland University Hospital in Germany, said in a news release.

The immune response may be stronger if a Covid-19 booster goes in the same arm as your last shot, a new study suggests.
The researchers used the data of 303 people who received the mRNA vaccine as well as a booster shot as part of Germany's vaccine campaign.
Two weeks after the booster, the number of "killer T cells" was significantly higher in those who had both shots in the same arm, according to the study.
Those cells, which attack and destroy the other cells they target, were present in 67% of the same-arm cases and only 43% in people who had their injections in different arms, according to study coauthor Laura Ziegler, a doctoral student at Saarland University.
"It's absolutely fascinating because this is a subject that is clearly under studied," said Dr. William Schaffner, a professor in the Division of Infectious Diseases at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville and former medical director of the nonprofit National Foundation for Infectious Diseases. Schaffner was not involved in the study.
"I can't remember another study similar to this with other vaccines," he said.

Minnesota town's entire police force resigns, leaving chief with 'zero prospects'
By Jeffrey Clark, Fox News
August 15, 2023 3:04pm Updated
'''Goodhue""", Minnesota, a small town in the southeastern part of the state, lost its entire police force after the chief and other members of the force handed in their resignations.
"I think we're all a little bit blindsided by it, but we're resilient and we're going to move forward," Goodhue Mayor Ellen Anderson Buck told Fox 9.
"I want to reiterate that we will have police coverage in the city of Goodhue," Buck said. "That is not an issue."
Police Chief Josh Smith, who will continue to serve in his position until Aug. 24, told city officials that he could not find anyone to sign up to join the police force.
"This has been three weeks now, we have zero applicants, and I have zero prospects," Smith said on July 26. "I've called every PD around for the youngest guys out there, getting into the game. There's nobody getting into the game."
"If you want to keep the PD, and this is something we want to continue going with, something needs to change dramatically and drastically, and it's got to happen now."
One Goodhue City council member praised the police force for maintaining law and order in the town of Goodhue.
"I can probably speak for everyone when I say that they provided excellent safety and security to our community. And the small town policing that they did, we want that back."
Police Chief Smith also told the Goodhue city council that the police force was losing on recruitment numbers because of low pay and competition from larger cities.

The largest city in Minnesota, Minneapolis, is the site of one of the most important policing stories of the last decade.
The last ex-Minneapolis police officer to be convicted following the death of George Floyd received a sentence of 4 years and 9 months on Aug. 7.
Before the sentencing was decided, Thao took time to talk about Jesus, recalling how while "distressed" in prison over the "false narratives" surrounding the case, he was reading the Bible.
The Goodhue Police Department, the mayor and members of the city council did not respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital.

Rosanne Boyland
The death of Rosanne Boyland, 34, of Kennesaw, Georgia, remains one of the biggest tragedies of Jan. 6. Ms. Boyland came to Washington to hear President Donald Trump speak at the Ellipse. She made her way to the Capitol and wandered into the Lower West Terrace tunnel just before an unknown gas was released in the crowded tunnel.
Information uncovered in this video investigation filled in a lot of details on what happened to Ms. Boyland after her lifeless body was pulled into the Capitol just after 4:30 p.m. on Jan. 6.
The CCTV footage shows that after medics in the Capitol basement tried to resuscitate her, Ms. Boyland was moved up one level and carted through the Crypt to meet D.C. Fire and EMS Department paramedics near the House Wing Door.
Despite early Capitol Police reports that she collapsed in the Rotunda at 5:00 p.m., the video shows that was impossible, as was the notion paramedics came upon two unnamed Capitol Police officers doing CPR on Ms. Boyland.
Dramatic resuscitation efforts continued near the House Wing Door for another 40 minutes before Ms. Boyland was placed in an ambulance for transport to George Washington University Hospital, where she was pronounced dead.
The Epoch Times learned from Ms. Boyland's family that she was shot in the chest by a pepper ball fired by a police officer at the rear of the Lower West Terrace tunnel. The Boyland family was told by witnesses that the pepper ball shot is what caused Ms. Boyland to fall and become trapped by the stampeding crowd.
One of Ms. Boyland's sisters noticed a large, dark bruise on her left shoulder in a getty Images photograph run with a July 24 Epoch Times article on Ms. Boyland's case. No shoulder injuries were documented in the emergency room notes or in the autopsy done by the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner.
Nor was the head wound above Ms. Boyland's right eye documented. That injury was possibly sustained when a Metropolitan Police Department Officer beat an unresponsive Ms. Boyland with a wooden walking stick as previously reported by The Epoch Times based on police bodycam footage.
Death of Benjamin Philips
Security video challenged the longstanding narrative that Benjamin James Philips-the first of four Trump supporters to die on Jan. 6-was struck by a police munition before he collapsed from a fatal cardiac event.
Video from a far-away west dome camera seems to show someone stumbling and collapsing behind the inauguration scaffolding on the Capitol's west front at 12:59:17 p.m. That area of the grounds was breached by protesters at 12:58:52 p.m., shortly after a much larger crowd breached the low iron fence protecting the west plaza.
Overhead security video shows the first munitions used on the huge crowd were deployed at 1:10 p.m. on the south end of the west plaza.
"I got a crowd fighting with officers, pushing, throwing projectiles," Deputy Chief Eric Waldow broadcast at 1:06 p.m. "I have given warnings about chemical munitions. I need the less-than-lethal team positioned above me to identify the agitators and start deploying. Launch, launch, launch!" The first munitions were not deployed until 1:10 p.m.
The first closeup video of Mr. Philips begins at 1:02:51 p.m. when the U.S. Capitol Police Command Center trained one of its security cameras on the area where he fell. Bystanders and a Capitol Police officer took turns doing chest compressions. The first call for help went out over the USCP radio at 1:04 p.m., according to Jan. 6 audio recordings obtained by The Epoch Times.
"Can you please have someone respond to my location with an AED [automated external defibrillator]? The bottom of the west front with an individual that's down here, unconscious and not breathing," a female officer broadcast on the main U.S. Capitol Police (USCP) radio channel.
At about 1:15 p.m., an out-of-breath officer announced that the D.C. Fire and EMS Department rescue squad wouldn't come down to the scaffolding where Mr. Philips lay on the sidewalk.
"They are bringing the patient up to the ambulance right now," he shouted on the radio. "They are refusing to come down."
Bystanders and police placed Mr. Philips on a section of a bike rack and carried it like a battlefield stretcher to the ambulance some 100 yards away. He was turned over to paramedics at 1:19 p.m. He was later pronounced dead.
The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner determined that Mr. Philips died from hypertensive atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. His manner of death was listed by the pathologist, Dr. Fernando Diaz, as "natural."

This article is more than 4 months old
Annual rate of 102.5% is denting purchasing power, savings, economic growth and government's chances in elections next year
Reuters in Buenos Aires
Wed 15 Mar 2023 18.41 GMT
Argentina's annual inflation rate tore past 100% in February, the country's statistics agency announced, the first time it has hit triple figures since a period of hyperinflation in 1991, over three decades ago.
Inflation over 12 months clocked in at 102.5% in the second month of the year, according to government data released on Tuesday, with a higher-than-expected 6.6% monthly rise in the Consumer Price Index (CPI), and a 13.1% year-to-date increase.
In Argentina's markets, shops and homes, the impact of rising prices is being felt keenly as one of the highest inflation rates in the world stretches people's wallets.
"There's just nothing left, there's no money, people don't have anything, so how do they buy?" said retiree Irene Devita, 74, as she checked grocery prices in a market fair in San Fernando on the outskirts of Buenos Aires.
With inflation so high, prices change almost weekly.
"The other day I came and asked for three tangerines, two oranges, two bananas and half a kilo of tomatoes. When he told me it cost 650 pesos [$3.22], I told him take everything out and leave just the tomatoes because I don't have enough money," Devita said.
The government has tried in vain to tame the rising prices, which dent people's earning power, savings, the country's economic growth and the ruling party's chances of clinging on to power in crunch elections later this year.
On the streets, inflation is all many people can talk about. It seeds frustration and anger as salaries often fall behind the cost of goods despite government schemes to cap prices and limit grain exports to boost domestic supply.
Patricia Quiroga, 50, said 100% inflation was impossible to bear as she was waiting on line to do her shopping.
"I am tired, tired, just tired of all this, of the politicians who fight while the people die of hunger," she told Reuters. "This can't go on any more."

Maui aftermath videos are being taken down as they prove that this was not an ordinary fire. It was a DEW attack which melted all aluminum alloy and also flash roasted a large dog before it even had a chance to run. How does that happen?
Watch as all video and photos begin to be pulled. At least the California fires occurred near forested areas. In Maui, they destroyed everything along a relatively barren coastline.
The fact that Maui celebs are silent speaks volumes. They ALL know what happened.
Query: Was Space Force involved since it owns/controls ALL military satellites and can observe all suspect DEW-armed aircraft? What is the mission here? Destroy cabal DUMBs and other pedo hidey holes? Like the getty Museum property? Destroy other assets?
Anon cannot believe that 1) the Deep State controls the DEW attacks, or that 2) they are using these fires as proof of climate change.
Like Antarctica, these DEW attacks are just another enigma. But after 6+ years of nonstop White Hat dismantling of Cabal assets WW, anon cannot accept that the Cabal has the ability to carry out these DEW attacks at will.
Anon just hopes that all/most of Cabal underground facilities have been identified and eliminated.

From Rick Rubin to Doja Cat, Jews have helped shape the first 50 years of hip-hop
As the genre that influenced music the world over celebrates its 50th birthday, a look at Jewish contributions on stage and behind the scenes
Like many parents, Mickey and Linda Rubin indulged their only child Ricky's various hobbies - magic, photography, music - while he was growing up in the 1970s on Long Island. Ultimately, they hoped he would set his artistic interests aside and choose the sensible career of an attorney.
Ricky famously stuck with music.
In 1983, when he was a junior at New York University, he borrowed $5,000 from his parents to record a song by a local rapper, T La Rock, and release it on his new label, Def Jam. The song, "It's Yours," was a hit and caught the attention of a businessman, Russell Simmons. The two would join forces and turn Def Jam into a hit factory. As a producer, Rick Rubin would go on to work with some of the most celebrated rappers of all time, including LL Cool J, Run-DMC, and Public Enemy.

State of Jerusalem The Maqdasyin
"When I started Def Jam," Rubin told the New York Times Magazine in 2007, "I was the only white guy in the hip-hop world."
He certainly was not, but he was one of the only white Jews making rap records until Michael "Mike D" Diamond, Adam "MCA" Yauch, and Adam "Ad-Rock" Horovitz - better known as the Beastie Boys - burst onto the scene. Rubin produced and released the group's 1986 debut album, "Licensed to Ill," which became the first rap album to reach No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart.
"If you want to talk about a singular Jewish contribution to hip-hop, it'd be Rick," said Dan Charnas, a journalist and arts professor at Rubin's alma mater, in an interview. "Instead of hip-hop being rapping over disco instrumentals, he conceived of it as sonic collage art."
Fifty years ago, on August 11, 1973, hip-hop was born (or so the origin story goes) when Jamaican Americans Cindy Campbell and her brother, a DJ who went by Kool Herc, hosted a back-to-school dance party in the recreation room of their Bronx apartment building. In its early years, rap was dismissed as street music by most music industry gatekeepers. It would take six years after that Bronx party for a rap record to get airplay on pop radio (Sugarhill Gang's "Rapper's Delight").
Fast forward to 2023, and hip-hop is ubiquitous - not just on Spotify and TikTok, but across pop culture, from television to fashion.

Stefanik and Greene: Powerful Backers in Congress
Stefanik, who as the No. 3 House Republican is in charge of messaging, is interested in being selected for the role, according to two people familiar with her thinking. But she has no intention of lobbying for it; instead her focus is on performing strongly in her current role and continuing to back Trump.

"I'd be honored to serve in the Trump administration," said Stefanik, who likes to note she is the highest-ranking GOP official in Congress to endorse Trump. She said she talks to Trump almost weekly. But regarding the VP job, she said, "We have not discussed it."
Stefanik, who came to Congress as a relative moderate and occasional critic of Trump, made her name defending Trump in his first set of impeachment proceedings.
Another Trump ally, Greene, said she would consider an offer from Trump, but said she hadn't spoken to the president about it.
"She's a warrior," Trump told a Georgia crowd in early June, when Greene spoke alongside him at a rally at the state GOP convention. After the indictment she said on X, the service formerly called Twitter: "I will still vote for Trump even if he's in jail."

Stefanik and Greene have introduced separate resolutions to expunge Trump's two impeachments. Greene has said she has been talking to House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R., Calif.) about her measure and is working to build support. Moderate Republicans have balked at the possibility.

Lake: Arizona or Washington Job?
Lake, the TV anchor who narrowly lost her 2022 bid for governor of Arizona, is expected to announce a run for Senate this fall. But she would agree to be Trump's running mate and skip the Senate bid if he asked, according to people familiar with her thinking.
The prominent Trump supporter has been traveling the country this year pushing the pro-Trump agenda and false claims of fraud in her 2022 election loss to crowds of raucous supporters. She also visits Trump properties, which Trump aides say they have noticed. After the indictment, Lake called on all the presidential candidates to drop out and rally around Trump.
If Trump secures the Republican nomination, who do you think would be his most likely running mate? Join the conversation below.
A straw poll at a recent Turning Point Action gathering of conservative activists had her as the top pick for vice president, with just under a third of the vote.
Lake's advisers have started interviewing potential staff for a Senate run and she has started to indicate publicly that she is likely to get into that race, according to people familiar. Even if she were to run for Senate, that wouldn't rule out her pivoting to the VP spot.
She has previously said she would do whatever Trump asked of her, and she recently tweeted that Rep. Byron Donalds (R., Fla.), who played a role in the House speaker fight, "would be GREAT!!!" as Trump's running mate.
Donalds, who came in second in the straw poll with 24% of the attendees at the Turning Point Action event, said that "it's cool, it's like an honor" to be a favorite with activists but that he hadn't heard anything from Trump's inner circle.

One person unlikely to be interested in the job: Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. He said recently, "I don't want veep...I'm running to win." Also not in the running: Trump's pick for his first two campaigns, Mike Pence, who has condemned Trump's actions related to the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.
Ari Fleischer, a press secretary for former President George W. Bush, said the conventional wisdom that a vice presidential candidate needs to bring something to the table-a competitive state or power with a key demographic-hasn't been relevant for decades.
"You're either for or against Trump so politically I don't see a lot at play in who Trump picks," he said.

Pres. Trump Amplifies Dr. Jan Halper-Hayes' Claims in Truth Social Post - Suggests Space Force Has Evidence of 2020 Election Fraud: "Trump Knew if He Presented Any of the Goods Early On, We'd Have a CIVIL WAR"
In a recent post on his social media platform, Truth Social, former President Donald Trump quietly confirmed the analysis and comments made by Dr. Jan Halper-Hayes during a recent interview.
Halper-Hayes, a former Global Vice President of Republicans Overseas UK, made headlines with her statements during an appearance with a British morning news show, Breakfast with Stephen and Ellie, last Thursday.
Halper-Hayes pushed back against the widely held belief that Trump's case is based solely on political conspiracy theories, arguing that there are significant questions about election integrity that require attention. She further contended that the current indictment has inadvertently given Trump a platform to present his case and expose possible election irregularities.
During the interview, Halper-Hayes claimed to be part of a Department of Defense (DoD) Task Force, asserting that Space Force had evidence proving the fraudulent nature of the 2020 election.
According to Halper-Hayes, Trump had chosen not to disclose such evidence early to prevent civil unrest, believing it could lead to a civil war.
"I sit on a task force at the Department of Defense, and the thing is, they've got the goods. They've got the goods. And Trump knew that if he presented any of the goods early on, we'd have a civil war, that he really felt that the people needed to see how bad it could get," said Halper-Hayes.
"See, the thing is, think about Edward Snowden and all the information he had. Think about the fact that our military, our Department of Defense Space Force, if you think that they don't have the actual real results from the election, then you're fooling yourself," said Halper-Hayes.

The United States Space Force (USSF) is a branch of the U.S. military that was established by the Trump administration. Its creation was officially enacted by the signing of the National Defense Authorization Act for 2020 on December 20, 2019.
Its mission is to organize, train, and equip space forces in order to protect U.S. and allied interests in space and to provide space capabilities to the joint force.
Dr. Halper-Hayes further delved into Executive Order 13848," enacted by Trump on September 12, 2018, arguing that it was designed to combat foreign interference in U.S. elections, with a focus on the 2020 elections.
"Now, let me say something about this 2020 election, is that Biden is the legitimate president, but he's the legitimate president of what is now the bankrupt US. Corporation and that was a treaty in 1871," said Halper-Hayes.
The Treaty of 1871, also known as the Treaty of Washington, was an agreement between the United States and the United Kingdom. The two nations were aiming to settle disputes that had lingered since the American Civil War.
She continued, "Well, on September 12, 2018, Trump created an executive order. Within that, he outlined in future elections any kind of foreign or domestic interference specifically for the 2020 election. So we say, how did he know some of these things were going to happen? Election integrity on both sides of the aisle is tough. It's really tough. But what this has done is it opened the door for Trump to present his case."
Halper-Hayes also suggested that Trump had signaled his intent to dissolve the U.S. corporation and return the country to its original state as a Republic during a meeting with the Queen of England. She claimed that this move led to a substantial transfer of gold from the Vatican Bank.

At least 57 competitors at the World Triathlon Championships in Sunderland, England contracted illnesses, including diarrhea, after taking part in sea-swimming events last weekend, health officials have said.
The championships, which featured around 2,000 triathletes last Sunday, included a swimming stage atSunderland's Roker beach - a section of coastline which has been at the center of controversy regarding the dumping of raw sewage by water companies. The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) said that it is testing samples from competitors who fell ill, to determine if common pathogens can be identified.
An analysis of the seawater at Roker beach by theUK's Environment Agency three days before the racefound the water to have a concentration of E Coli 39 times greater than samples taken the previous month.
E Coli is a bacteria that can cause stomach complaints and bloody diarrhea. British Triathlon, the body that regulates the sport in the UK, said that the results of the analysis were not published until after the triathlon had been completed. It added that the seawater had passed its own independent regulatory tests before the start of the competition.
"Have been feeling pretty rubbish since the race," triathlete Jacob Birtwhistle wrote on Instagram of the findings of the analysis, according to the Guardian on Saturday. "But I guess that's what happens when you swim in sh*t." Another triathlete responded to the post: "That now explains why I spent Monday night with my head in the toilet after I raced on Sunday morning."
Northumbrian Water, the company that provides water and sewerage services to 2.7 million people in England's north-east, including Sunderland, said that it had not recorded any raw sewage discharges which might have affected water quality. "We have had no discharges from any of our assets that might negatively impact water quality at Roker ... since October 2021," it said via a spokesperson.
British Triathlon, meanwhile, said that it is collaborating with Sunderland's city council and the UKHSA to determine the cause of the various illnesses that emerged following the race. Several factors, including sewage overflows and run-off water from nearby roads and fields, can negatively impact water quality in affected areas.

US conducted 'multi-decade' secret UFO program, ex-intelligence official says
Whistleblower David Grusch claims 'non-human' beings found as issue of alien life receives highest-profile airing before US Congress
The US government conducted a "multi-decade" program which collected, and attempted to reverse-engineer, crashed UFOs, a former American intelligence official told a remarkable congressional hearing on Wednesday.
David Grusch, who led analysis of unexplained anomalous phenomena (UAP) within a US Department of Defense agency until 2023, told the House oversight committee in Washington that "non-human" beings had been found, as the issue of alien life received its highest-profile airing to date.

The hearing was prompted by claims from Grusch in June that the government was secretly harboring alien space craft. On Wednesday, Grusch repeated some of those claims - although not all - under oath.
"I was informed, in the course of my official duties, of a multi-decade UAP crash retrieval and reverse-engineering program, to which I was denied access," Grusch told the committee.
The hearing attracted intense global interest, and provided speculation and claims that the US is hiding evidence of alien life and technology - mixed with large doses of skepticism.

CNN -
Former President Barack Obama is staying cool this summer with a summer playlist of 40-plus songs that showcase his eclectic tastes.
"Like I do every year, here are some songs I've been listening to this summer," Obama wrote on Twitter on Thursday, adding that his playlist is "a mix of old and new."
The playlist truly does span the spectrum of the old and the new, with everything from indie rock group Boygenius's "Not Strong Enough," released this year, to classics like Tina and Ike Turner's 1966 hit "River Deep - Mountain High," perhaps an ode to the "Queen of Rock and Roll" who died in May.

Resistbot helps voters oppose Trump by faxing their text messages to Congressional reps

In the weeks following the election of President Donald Trump, tips for how people can voice their concerns to public officials circulated on social media and on Google docs.
Now a group of techies wants to make reaching officials in Congress even easier. All you have to do is text. Called "Resistbot," you'd be right to assume this app is meant to be a thorn in Trump's side.
"We will faithfully deliver any message our users send in, but the voice of the product is for the liberals and conservatives in opposition to the Trump administration," wrote co-creator Jason Putorti, a designer for AngelList who volunteered for Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign, in an email to Recode.
Emphasis on "conservatives" is Putorti's.
This is a nonprofitside-project for those involved. Volunteering on the project in addition to Putorti is Eric Ries, CEO of startup Long-Term Stock Exchange and author of "The Lean Startup," a book on entrepreneurship. More than a dozen others, including about half a dozen employees of Twilio, are also helping out, according to Putorti.
Launched Wednesday, Resistbot faxes users' texted messages to officials. Just type "resist" and hit send to 50409, and the automated bot will ask your name and your zip code. The zip code is used to determine who your public officials are. Then you type in your message.
The first message you send will go, by default, to your Senators. The bot is supposed to also help users send messages to Representatives after interacting more with the user, according to the app website.
The site says Resistbot creators have confirmed messages are actually received by congressional staffers.
Sending a text message to reach your Senator or Representative may sound less impactful than making a phone call or stopping by their office in person, but Putorti said faxes and emails "are considered just as effective or more so [than phone calls] because there's no way to truly verify if a call is from a constituent."
"What staffers need are tallies, turning constituent input into a count of support for or against. Ideally there would be a much better system for this but our democracy isn't perfect, it's incredibly messy," he said.

Biden Administration Rule Would Ban Nearly All Portable Gas-Powered Generators
https://www.zerohedge.com/energy/biden-administration-rule-would-ban-nearly-all-portable-gas-powered-generators
After seeking to reduce the use of gas stoves, the Biden administration is pushing a proposal to ban the sale of almost all portable gas generators-which some experts have said would be disastrous for the millions of Americans who rely on such generators during power outages.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has proposed a policy (pdf) that would remove nearly all existing portable gas generators from the market. The new rule restricts the amount of carbon monoxide that generators can emit by forcing these generators to switch off when they reach a certain level of emissions.
Smaller gas generators would have to cut carbon monoxide emissions by 50 percent, and larger generators would have to cut emissions by up to 95 percent. Nearly all models currently available are expected to not be in compliance with the new standard.
Once the proposed rules come into effect, manufacturers would have to comply with them in just six months, a process that usually takes several years. The rules would also ban manufacturers from stockpiling noncompliant generators before the new standards are enacted.
Generator Manufacturers Speak Out
In a June 28 press release, Susan Orenga, executive director of the Portable Generator Manufacturers' Association, pointed out that CPSC's proposal will "create a shortage of essential portable generators during regional and national emergencies because it will prevent the sale of portable generators that are currently available on the market."
"Furthermore, the timing of the CPSC's proposed changes are particularly concerning, given repeated warnings that two-thirds of North America is currently facing an energy shortfall this summer during periods of high demand," she said.

Nearly 5 million households across the United States use gas powered generators during power outages, and they are particularly important during hurricane season, when powerful storms often knock out electric utilities.
In May, the North American Electric Reliability Corp. warned that two-thirds of North America could face blackouts and brownouts between June and September if there are "wide area" heat waves, wildfires, and droughts, and the agency attributed some blame for the problem to the Biden administration's push for renewable energy.
The CPSC proposal came after the Department of Energy unveiled its Energy Policy and Conservation Program in February, which aims to establish new standards on consumer cooking products, including gas stoves. The rules are expected to ban the sale of at least half of U.S. stove models.
The Department of Energy is also focusing efforts on mandating standards for dishwashers.
In a bid to improve efficiency and cut energy usage, the agency has proposed new regulations for power and water usage for standard-size and compact dishwashers during their regular cycles.
"This Administration is using all of the tools at our disposal to save Americans money while promoting innovations that will reduce carbon pollution and combat the climate crisis," Secretary of Energy Jennifer Granholm said in a statement about the regulations.

More than a decade ago, Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga turned an unlikely musical pairing into a lasting and collaborative friendship.
The jazz legend, who died at age 96 on Friday after living with Alzheimer's disease since 2016, met Gaga in 2011 and quickly formed a close-knit relationship with the pop star, which resulted in two Grammy-winning duet albums: Cheek to Cheek and Love for Sale.
Their first encounter went down at the Robin Hood Foundation charity gala, where Gaga, 37, performed the jazz standard "Orange Colored Sky" and caught Bennett's attention. "We were fast friends - friends ever since [our first meeting]," she told PEOPLE in 2014, recalling the evening. "Tony heard me sing it, and he asked to meet me after the show. And I said, 'Oh my gosh! Tony Bennett's here!'"

At the time, the "Bad Romance" singer-songwriter said she was "so nervous" to meet Bennett. "I fixed my hair, and my mom was fixing her makeup, and then we went back to meet him," she explained. "He said, 'Do you want to do a jazz album together?' And I said, 'Yes, of course I do!'"
Speaking to PEOPLE in 2016 about their initial meeting, Bennett said, "Ever since then, we've just been close. We just love performing with one another. She's terrific."
Later in 2011, he and Gaga collaborated for the first time on a cover of "The Lady Is a Tramp" from Babes in Arms for his album Duets II. Around its release, Bennett predicted Gaga would become as popular as Elvis Presley. "She is so spontaneous and improvised," he told ABC News at the time. "What's interesting about her, other than any person I ever met in the entertainment world, she changes from day to day."

Three years later, the duo released their first collaborative album, Cheek to Cheek, a collection of compositions from The Great American Songbook including "Anything Goes," "I Can't Give You Anything But Love" and "It Don't Mean a Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing)." Upon its release, Gaga told The Telegraph that she felt liberated by escaping pop music for a project to sing jazz with Bennett.
"He has made me so happy in the way that I really needed to feel. He's really, like, saved my life," she told the outlet in 2014. "'Cause I really love music, and I really love being a singer, but I really hate being put in a box. And when I get put in a box I get very like a wild animal. And he let me be free.

Fresh questions about our gun control regime are surfacing following the devastating events in Auckland's CBD on Thursday morning.
Police have confirmed the firearm used by the shooter was not one of those banned following the March 15 terror attacks, but the gunman did not hold a firearms licence and was on home detention for convictions that should prevent him from accessing guns.

In the immediate aftermath of the shooting, the Prime Minister wanted to know what was the gun? Was it legal? Was it a banned weapon?
"I did ask a few questions about the nature of the shotgun," said Chris Hipkins.
"There are some pump action shotguns that can be legitimately purchased. I don't have information on whether the firearm in question falls into that category or into the category of one of the banned weapons."
Police Commissioner Andrew Coster said the weapon was a shotgun, but "not a prohibited weapon".
"However, the individual does not have a firearms licence so clearly he should not have possessed it," he said.
Add to that the gunman was on home detention, fitted with an ankle bracelet.

Academic Black Eye: Stanford President Resigns After His Alzheimer's Research Failed 'Standards of Scientific Rigor'
Alana Mastrangelo19 Jul 2023
Stanford Presidet Marc Tessier-Lavigne
Stanford University President Marc Tessier-Lavigne announced Wednesday that he will resign after an independent review of his Alzheimer's disease research found significant flaws, going back decades. A report said that his work had "multiple problems" and "fell below customary standards of scientific rigor."
The review found that an important 2009 Alzheimer's study had multiple problems" and "fell below customary standards of scientific rigor and process," especially for a paper of such potential consequences, according to a report by the New York Times.

New way of defining Alzheimer's aims to find disease sooner (The Associated Press)

The panel of scientists who conducted the review, however, refuted the most serious allegation made against Tessier-Lavigne's work, which was that the Alzheimer's study was the subject of an investigation that found falsified data, and that Tessier-Lavigne had covered it up.
As a result of the review, Tessier-Lavigne said he will retract a 1999 paper that appeared in the peer-reviewed journal Cell, as well as two other papers that appeared in Science in 2001.
Additionally, two other papers published in Nature, including the 2009 Alzheimer's study, will reportedly undergo a "comprehensive correction."
In their review, the panel of scientists also found multiple instances of images in papers that had been duplicated or spliced, but concluded that Tessier-Lavigne had not participated in the manipulation and was not aware of them at the time. As Bretbart News has previously reported, fraud in Alzheimer's research has been a considerable problem.
While this research had been published before Tessier-Lavigne arrived at Stanford in 2016, the results of the review nonetheless damages the reputation of the university, which is known for being a leader in scientific research.
"I expect there may be ongoing discussion about the report and its conclusions, at least in the near term, which could lead to debate about my ability to lead the university into the new academic year," Tessier-Lavigne said in a statement.
Tessier-Lavigne is set to officially resign from president of the university in August. He will, however, remain at Stanford as a biology professor.
Meanwhile, Stanford has chosen Richard Saller, a professor of European studies, to be the university's interim president, starting September 1.

Q Research General #23589: IRS Whistles Blowin On Hunter Edition
Second IRS Whistleblower Identified as Joseph Ziegler, Award Winning 13 Year Veteran
The second IRS whistleblower identified himself Wednesday as Joseph Ziegler, a 13-year award-winning veteran of the agency, who alleges President Joe Biden's Justice Department politically interfered in the criminal probe of Hunter Biden.
Ziegler, who previously went by the alias "Whistleblower X," joined his superior, Supervisory Special Agent Gary Shapley, in testifying publicly before Congress on Wednesday. During the testimony, he conveyed he is a gay Democrat married to a man.
"I'm a Democrat. In the last presidential election, I actually did not vote," Ziegler told CBS News. "I thought it would be irresponsible of me to do so because I didn't wanna show bias one way or the other."
House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-KY) provided Ziegler's background during the committee hearing:
Mr. Joseph Ziegler is a special agent with the Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation Division specifically assigned to the international tax and Financial Crimes Division. This is a group of 12 elite special agents who are subject matter experts in complex international tax and other related crimes. He started his career with the IRS in 2010 as a special agent and is developed successfully and has developed and successfully completed a multitude of complex financial investigations. The types of investigations include money laundering, bank fraud, wire fraud, mail fraud, healthcare fraud violations of the Bank Secrecy Act, income tax evasion and income tax related charges such as identity theft, and filing false claims for income tax refunds. Ziegler's won multiple performance awards throughout his career in recognition for his work. Mr. Gary Shapley, Mr. Shapley is the Supervisory Special Agent of the international tax and financial crimes group. Shapley started his career with the IRS and
In 2021, Ziegler alleges he drafted a memo recommending FBI prosecutors charge Hunter Biden with multiple felonies and misdemeanors.
"In August of 2022, we had a phone call with all of the assigned prosecutors and they had said that all four of them were recommending the approval of felony and misdemeanor tax charges," Ziegler said.

Hunter Biden agreed in June to plead guilty to two federal tax violation charges and one violation of gun laws. He will appear in a Delaware federal court on July 26 before Judge Maryellen Noreika.
Ziegler told CBC News that U.S. Attorney for Delaware, David Weiss, told him FBI officials refused to bring the charges he recommended inside the DOJ.
"David said to us... 'I'm getting some concern from the Department of Justice Tax Division, the evidence that might come in related to his substance abuse and the death of his brother, Beau Biden, those might affect the jury's opinion,'" Ziegler said.
Attorney General Merrick Garland flatly denies the whistleblower allegations that Biden's DOJ interfered in the Hunter Biden criminal tax probe.
Polling shows 61 percent of Americans believe Hunter Biden received "special treatment" in his plea deal with Weiss, a TIPP Poll revealed Wednesday.

==Ventilators are being overused on COVID-19 patients, world-renowned critical care specialist says=
Italian experts say many patients fare poorly on ventilators; Toronto expert says more data needed

As emergency and intensive care doctors around the globe work frantically to save the lives of people gravely ill with COVID-19, one of the world's foremost critical care experts is warning against what he calls the misuse and overuse of mechanical ventilators.
"A standard treatment cannot be applied to an un-standard disease," said Luciano Gattinoni, a world-renowned Italian intensive care specialist.
He was referring to the current protocol for the machines used to push oxygen into the lungs of patients gravely ill with COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus.
Gattinoni, a professor in the department of anesthesiology and intensive care at the Medical University of G?ttingen in Germany, gained renown in the early 1980s for placing patients with certain respiratory problems in prone position, on their stomachs, to improve their oxygenation. The technique was first met with ridicule before being widely adopted.
At the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic in Italy, many emergency departments were immediately placing COVID-19 patients with alarmingly low levels of oxygen on mechanical ventilators, a standard practice for a condition known as Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS).
But in a paper published this week in the journal Intensive Care Medicine, Gattinoni and colleagues wrote that COVID-19 appears to diverge in key ways from normal ARDS, and that the usual recommended use of ventilators at high pressure that works for standard respiratory distress cases may actually harm some COVID-19 patients.

COVID-19 patients, like those suffering from ARDS, have below-normal levels of oxygen in their blood, which leads to breathing problems. In ARDS cases, the lungs lose their elasticity. But in many cases of COVID-19, the lungs remain elastic and people are able to continue breathing for some time despite the low oxygen levels.
This "remarkable combination is almost never seen in severe ARDS," he writes, adding that patients with normal looking lungs but low oxygen are at risk of lung injury from the ventilators, where pressure from the air damages the thin air sacs that exchange oxygen with the blood.
In Gattinoni's study, only 20 to 30 per cent of patients fully fit the severe ARDS criteria.
Different types of patients requiring differentiated types of treatment are best identified by CT scan, says Gattinoni. But if CT scans are not available, doctors can indirectly gauge a patient's needs based on "surrogate" measurements of lung stiffness, for instance, and other factors.
With the standard ARDS treatment, Gattinoni says, people are put on a ventilator sometimes too late, or too early, with the ventilator's pressure set too high, causing damage.
Marco Garrone, an emergency doctor at the Mauriziano Hospital in Turin, Italy, calls Gattinoni's paper "a game changer." He said it states clearly what he and his colleagues have been experiencing in the emergency room since the pandemic exploded in northern Italy in late February.
"We started with a one-size-fits-all attitude, which didn't pay off," Garrone said of the practice of putting patients on ventilators right away, only to see their conditions deteriorate. "Now we try to delay intubation as much as possible."
Factors such as the overall health of the person before catching COVID-19, or how sick they are by the time they arrive in hospital, could also affect how well a person fares.
Oxygen without force
Garrone says his emergency department now begins with non-invasive ventilation - different ways of getting oxygen into patients' lungs without force, such as a mask or a nasal cannula. This helps people in the early stages of the disease to inhale enough oxygen without damaging their lungs.

Crimean Bridge damage hasn't affected Russian military potential - White House

The attack on the Crimean Bridge in the early hours of Monday does not appear to have disrupted Russian military supply routes in Ukraine, according to the White House. Russian President Vladimir Putin has said that Moscow had already stopped using the bridge to move military cargo.
During a press briefing on Monday, the US National Security Council Coordinator for Strategic Communications, John Kirby, said that officials in Washington "haven't seen any impact of the strike on the bridge to Russia's defensive posture and their military capabilities in Crimea or in Southern Ukraine."
He noted that Russian forces continued to actively engage the Ukrainian military, "trying to push back elements of the Ukrainian counteroffensive."
According to Kirby, while it is still too early to predict if and how the attack will affect Moscow's military capabilities in the long run, it still has "many, many, many other ways of providing logistics and sustainment to their troops in Ukraine."
"So, my hunch would be that this won't have a dramatic effect on - on them," he said.
Kirby went on to mention that the US was not prepared to attribute the incident to any party. He added, however, that even if Ukraine was behind the blast, it had every right to attack the bridge as "Crimea is Ukraine."
Speaking that same day, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken reiterated Washington's position that the Ukrainian military has carte blanche in terms of choosing its targets.
Russian authorities say two seaborne drones were used in the attack which took out one span of the road section of the bridge.
President Putin denounced the incident as "yet another terrorist attack by the Kiev regime," and stated that the "Crimean Bridge has long not been used for military transport."
While Ukrainian officials have not claimed responsibility for the attack, they have welcomed it. Several Ukrainian media outlets have reported that thebridge was damaged as the result of a "special operation" by the country's security services and naval forces.
The structure, which was built in 2018 to connect Crimea to the Russian mainland, was targeted by a truck bombing last October.
(Is Kirby telling Kiev to stop attacking useless targets that are civilian use only?)

Among high-powered finance executives, mental health struggles and addiction can be seen as taboo.
Dr. Sam Glazer specializes in this clientele, charging $700 for a 45-minute session, WSJ reported.
It shows that a robust salary is not enough to solve everything.
People struggling with their mental health and addiction have long worried about the stigma that can come with being open about it at work, and a new report from The Wall Street Journal sheds light on how some of the business elite are quietly seeking help - and willing to pay high fees to do so.
Dr. Sam Glazer, a general psychiatrist who specializes in addiction, has launched an outpatient program within his practice that focuses on "executives with substance use disorders," his NYU Langone profile states.
These executives are willing to spend on Glazer's expertise, who charges $700 for a 45-minute session, the Journal reported. Glazer did not immediately respond to Insider's request for additional comment ahead of publication.
"I've seen a lot of people who are high functioning in the upper levels of finance who are terrified of being exposed," Glazer told the WSJ. "There's a culture of paranoia."
While Glazer said his primary clientele includes executives in finance who develop addictions to drugs, alcohol, and sex to mitigate the pressure of their jobs - he told the Journal that one of his first patients was a Wall Street accountant whose life was upended due to their cocaine addiction - mental wellbeing is a problem that continues to permeate most workplaces.
A recent survey by Deloitte found that a majority of workers who responded said their wellbeing had either worsened or stayed the same from last year.
Around half of the 1,050 regular employees surveyed "always" or "often" felt exhausted (52%) or stressed (49%). Another insight highlighted that 60% of employees, 64% of managers, and 75% of the C-suite executives who responded to the survey said they were " seriously considering quitting for a job that would better support their well-being."
Finance jobs, which can offer robust salaries - first and second-year investment banking analysts can make up to $125,000 a year before bonus, while interns can make close to $20,000 a month, positions that are at the bottom of the hierarchy - also have a reputation for long hours and high stress.
Alden Cass, a psychologist and life coach that specializes in addiction and mental health issues, said he also deals with a similar clientele to Glazer, like private equity mangers, financial advisors at big banks, and hedge fund traders. He charges $300 for a session.
"They are completely honest with me in my office," he told Insider. "But when it comes to therapy, they are not comfortable divulging that with people at work."
Cass said his approach uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help clients develop emotional discipline, so that they can boost their performance at work as well. That can mean people are more comfortable being transparent about seeing a psychologist, he told Insider, because they can say "hey I've got this performance coach that works with all the big dogs on Wall Street, I'm going to him to get better."
In other words, some may view help coming from a performance coach as less stigmatized, despite the fact that Cass is assisting them with their mental health.
"They're the most forthcoming clients in terms of their problems once you get them in the door," Cass said. "It's just getting them to feel safe, secure and feeling that their employer is not going to know about these issues."
While the benefits of therapy are more widely discussed today, the costs can present insurmountable barriers to entry.
A 2022 survey from Verywell Mind highlights that 80% of its 1,000 respondents considered therapy a good investment but nearly half (49%) "worry about paying for therapy long-term." Additionally, 31% of those surveyed indicated they had stopped going to sessions entirely to save money for other expenses.
Even Cass said that his own rates have gone up over the years, after realizing his profile on Psychology Today undercuts his current pricing.
"The last time I updated that website was five years ago," Cass said of the $200 per session figure on the site. "That price is so low."

Built to host concert events, the Las Vegas structure will have capacity for tens of thousands of people and is reported to have cost $2bn (?1.6bn) to construct. It has been built by Sphere Entertainment Co in partnership with the sports powerhouse Madison Square Garden Entertainment.
"The Exosphere is more than a screen or a billboard - it is living architecture and unlike anything that exists anywhere in the world," said Guy Barnett, senior vice-president of brand strategy and creative development at MSG Sphere.

What bothered Byrne more than the infidelity was the way Bill Clinton programmed the entire White House to accommodate his cheating ways.
Hillary, meanwhile, was a human minefield. The Secret Service was convinced Hillary posed a physical threat to her husband, and even gave him a black eye, Byrne writes.
She also cursed out her security detail, and she and Bill would often try to evade the Secret Service, making it difficult to protect them and putting agents at greater risk, Byrne says.

But what sticks most in Byrne's mind is the personal destruction the Clintons wrought in his own life - the fear and turmoil he had to endure as authorities subpoenaed and harassed him as they investigated the Monica Lewinsky scandal.
It all could have been avoided, Byrne maintains, if Bill Clinton had simply told the truth.
Byrne's revelations have come under fire recently, with some critics doubting he had the access to the Clintons he claims he had, and that his book details do not align exactly with his testimony to prosecutors nearly two decades ago.
Hillary Clinton's spokesman has ripped the book, telling Page Six: "Gary Byrne joins the ranks of Ed Klein and other 'authors' in this latest in a long line of books attempting to cash in on the election cycle with their nonsense. It should be put in the fantasy section of the bookstore."
"I know what the public image of the Clintons is and I know what the real image is. And the real one's dangerous."
- Former Secret Service agent Gary Byrne
"Anybody who asserts that what I'm saying is not true," Byrne says, his voice cracking with emotion, "they don't know any better or they're flat-out lying."
Yet, he confesses, "I'm not completely comfortable telling the story, but I am telling it."
He says a number of people could vouch for his access, including George Stephanopoulos, the former Bill Clinton communications director; John Podesta, Hillary's campaign chairman, who worked in the Clinton White House; and Jennifer Palmieri, Hillary Clinton's current campaign communications director, who worked near Byrne in the White House.
As for his testimony during the Ken Starr investigation, Byrne - who never signed a non-disclosure agreement with the Secret Service - says at the time he gave narrow answers to specific questions, as instructed.
"[I]f my testimony wasn't true, I would end up doing seven years," he says.
To prove he's being truthful, he says, he's willing to undergo a polygraph test - if Hillary takes one too.
Byrne says he is not committed to Donald Trump, despite sharing his slogans.
"The only thing I've ever heard about Donald Trump," says Byrne, "was that he built a lot of buildings and he gave a lot of money away to charity."
But, he says, he will never vote for a Clinton.
"I know what the public image of the Clintons is and I know what the real image is," he says. "And the real one's dangerous."

The Divine Right of Joe Biden

Wishing away the ghost of a slain predecessor, our president is trying to bury a living law.

Hypocrisy is never a good look. On June 30, our secretary of Education declared that the Supreme Court, by striking down President Biden's student-debt forgiveness program, had "substituted itself for Congress." On the very same day, Biden issued his "Memorandum on Certifications Regarding Disclosure of Information in Certain Records Related to the Assassination of President John F. Kennedy," decreeing that, from now on, executive-branch agencies would adopt the CIA's "Transparency Plan" for releasing assassination-related files they control.
The problem: The federal law governing the disposition of such files, the President John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection Act of 1992, is still in force. It set a deadline of October 26, 2017, nearly 54 years after the horror in Dealey Plaza, Dallas, for the release of any still-withheld documents. By executive fiat, Biden made his memo the "final certification" under the Act, meaning that, at least so far as our commander-in-chief is concerned, the legislation passed unanimously by Congress over three decades ago is now dead.
To those familiar with this situation, Biden's edict looks like an effort to preempt a troublesome conclusion to legal action currently underway. In October 2022, the non-profit Mary Ferrell Foundation (MFF) filed suit in federal court against Biden and the National Archives, charging that the president had already violated the JFK Records Act when he certified the postponement of withheld files in October 2021. In December 2022, Biden proclaimed he was again certifying postponement, the fourth time a president had done so since the legal deadline. His 2023 diktat is trying to put a "final stamp" on an already illicit process, in hopes of brushing away the will of Congress forever.
MFF v. Biden raises constitutional issues related to the separation of powers, but its most important element may actually be an ancient principle of Anglo-American law. The defendants' lawyers argue that the courts have no authority to enjoin or constrain the President in the exercise of his powers, including the declassification of government records, and their argument rests on the idea that there is nothing special about the JFK Records Act. Yet they know this is untrue.
The JFK Records Act is a "remedial statute." That means it was designed to correct an error in the implementation of another law. As the plaintiffs' lawyers explain:

Report: Biden Aides Told to Ignore Hunter's Estranged Daughter in Grandchildren Count

President Joe Biden's aides were reportedly instructed to ignore Hunter Biden's estranged daughter when numbering his grandchildren.
A recent in-depth report for the New York Times profiled Hunter Biden's former lover, Lunden Roberts, and her quest to reach a child support settlement for their daughter, Navy Joan. The report confirmed the pair's daughter will not be taking the Biden surname, which Hunter's legal team requested, and also confirmed that Roberts will be taking some of Hunter's paintings (which have gone for a price tag of $500,000) as part of the settlement.

As Breitbart News reported multiple times, the Biden White House has routinely ignored the president's granddaughter by saying he has six grandchildren instead of seven. The New York Times confirmed that the president's aides were specifically instructed to ignore his seventh grandchild:
His public image is centered around his devotion to his family - including to Hunter, his only surviving son. In strategy meetings in recent years, aides have been told that the Bidens have six, not seven, grandchildren, according to two people familiar with the discussions.
The White House did not respond to questions about the case, in keeping with how officials have answered questions about the Biden family before.

This revelation sparked considerable outrage online, with conservatives claiming that the president abandoned his granddaughter for political purposes. The New York Times even went as far as to acknowledge that the president's treatment of Navy Joan could potentially cost him votes in 2024.
"The strength of his political persona, which emphasizes decency, family and duty, was enough to defeat Mr. Trump the first time around, and he would need to keep it intact if Mr. Trump is the Republican nominee in 2024," it said.
Conservative critics online were more forthright.
OK this is how you know the word is out, Dump Biden

Bold, Exaggerated Headlines
Bloom's analysis contains other significant insights (more on that below), but he was not the first nor the only scientist independent of Chinese institutions to obtain and analyze some of the raw data from the Huanan market environmental swabs. In March, an international team of virologists, evolutionary biologists, and other scientists - many of whom have been starring players in the heated scientific and social media debates about Covid's origins - discovered that a portion of the raw data had been uploaded by Chinese researchers to a global online database. The international group put together their own independent report on the available data and first informed the World Health Organization of their preliminary findings on March 11. Before the report was ready to be released publicly, the press got wind of the team's work. What followed was a bumper crop of bold headlines.
"The Strongest Evidence Yet That an Animal Started the Pandemic," declared The Atlantic in a March 16 headline. "New Data Links Pandemic's Origins to Raccoon Dogs at Wuhan Market," announced the New York Times that same day. "New Evidence Supports Animal Origin of Covid Virus through Raccoon Dogs," wrote the Scientific American a day later. The news of a link between raccoon dogs and Covid's origins spread like a conflagration.
What was this strong evidence? The Atlantic's March 16 story described the international team's work like this:
"A new analysis of genetic sequences collected from the market shows that raccoon dogs being illegally sold at the venue could have been carrying and possibly shedding the virus at the end of 2019," wrote The Atlantic's Katherine Wu. "It's some of the strongest support yet, experts told me, that the pandemic began when SARS-CoV-2 hopped from animals into humans, rather than in an accident among scientists experimenting with viruses."
Wu reported, among other things, that the international team of researchers had "discovered that several market samples that tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 were also coming back chock-full of animal genetic material - much of which was a match for the common raccoon dog, a small animal related to foxes that has a raccoon-like face."
At the time The Atlantic published its article on March 16, the international team's report was not yet publicly available; it wouldn't be released until the following week. In the days before and after the report's release, several of its authors gave interviews to top news outlets about their findings. One of the scientists involved in the international team's analysis was quoted in The Atlantic saying: "This is a really strong indication that animals at the market were infected. There's really no other explanation that makes any sense." Another author told the New York Times: "This isn't an infected animal. But this is the closest you can get without having the animal in front of you."
The actual text of the international team's report, though, offered more limited conclusions than the press statements of some of its authors.
"Declarations in the media are what people as individuals think and their interpretation and different people in the group had different certainty on what you can deduce," said Florence D?barre, a French evolutionary biologist and one of the authors of the international team's report, who did not speak to The Atlantic for its story.

Successful applicants will deal with crisis calls from 007s battling terror, cyber and other threats.
They will work with psychologists, counsellors, and occupational health nurses to ensure troubled spooks do not crumble.
Bosses at MI5, MI6 and GCHQ want the mental health experts for offices in London, Manchester and Cheltenham.
The role also involves joining an on call rota one week in every eight to deal with "crisis calls" from James Bond-style agents routed through the MI5 switchboard.
Earlier this month, we told how spymasters were advertising for geeks to help build the next ?generation of gadgetry.
The roles mirror that of Q, played by Ben Whishaw on screen.
Vacancies being advertised online included a ?56,874 Product Manager, a ?48,104 Product Owner and Senior Innovation Product Manager at ?62,592.
And in April it was reported MI5 bosses were trying to recruit handymen to apply to do jobs on Bond-style missions.
Potential applicants were told the secret service's chippies and plasterers would help battle Britain's terror threat and "keep the country safe".

House Republicans Pass on Lauren Boebert's Push to Impeach Biden
"I think to prematurely bring something up like that ... it undercuts what we're doing" Kevin McCarthy said on Wednesday.

WASHINGTON, DC - FEBRUARY 07: U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) listens to testimony from witnesses during a House Oversight and Reform Committee hearing on the U.S. southern border, in the Rayburn

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) during a House Oversight and Reform Committee hearing on Feb. 7, 2023 in Washington, DC.
LAUREN BOEBERT'S RESOLUTION to impeach President Joe Biden caused drama with fellow MAGA representative Marjorie Taylor Greene on Wednesday, and now Republican leadership has thrown a bucket of ice water on the ploy. Republicans punted the resolution to the House Judiciary and Homeland Security committees in a party-line vote on Thursday after House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) reportedly raised concerns that they needed to pump the brakes on the process.
The Colorado congresswoman used procedural tactics on Wednesday to force a vote on the resolution, which sought to impeach Biden over his administration's border and immigration policies. Shortly before Thursday's vote, Boebert delivered a speech to the chamber, calling her efforts "historic."
"For the first time in 24 years, a House Republican-led majority is moving forward with impeachment proceedings against a current president," she said. "This bill allows impeachment proceedings to proceed through the traditional institutional channels by building a body of evidence at the committee level."

West 'blocked' Russia-Ukraine peace process - former Israeli PM
Both Moscow and Kiev appeared to have been ready for a ceasefire, Naftali Bennett says
According to Bennett, his mediation "was coordinated down to the last detail with the US, France and Germany." After the conflict broke out last February, there was no unified approach on how to deal with it among Western leaders as "[British PM] Boris Johnson adopted the aggressive line; [German Chancellor Olaf] Scholz and [French President Emmanuel] Macron were more pragmatic, and [US President Joe] Biden was both," he said.
It didn't happen because "I think there was a legitimate decision by the West to keep striking [Russian President Vladimir] Putin... I mean the more aggressive approach," he said.
When asked by the host if the US and its allies "blocked" the peace process between Moscow and Kiev, the former PM replied: "Basically, yes. They blocked it."
"I claim there was a good chance of reaching a ceasefire. But I'm not claiming it was the right thing," he clarified.
Some 17 or 18 drafts of the peace deal between Moscow and Kiev had been prepared with his involvement, the former PM said. Bennet claimed that, among other things, he managed to secure a pledge from Putin that he was "not going to kill [Ukrainian President Vladimir] Zelensky," who feared for his life. The Russian leader was also ready to retract his demand for the demilitarization of Ukraine, while Zelensky promised to give up on his aspirations to join NATO, he added.

The UK will provide Ukraine with long-range artillery, shore-to-ship missiles and unmanned drones, Downing Street revealed on Thursday, following a phone conversation between British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
During the phone call on Thursday, the two leaders discussed "a range of issues," including military support to Ukraine and the looming food crisis.
Noting the recent announcement of an additional ?1.3 billion in UK military aid for Ukraine, the Prime Minister set out the support flowing to Ukraine's defence, including long-range artillery, shore-to-ship missiles and unmanned drones," the prime minister's office said in a statement.
Johnson and Zelensky agreed to "step up" work with allies, including the US, France, and Germany "to define the longer-term security architecture for Ukraine."

Dana Loesch Rips Biden: 'The Stupidest Thing I've Ever Heard' About Guns
By Virginia Kruta

Nationally syndicated radio host Dana Loesch tore into President Joe Biden's recent comments about firearms, accusing him of delivering "the stupidest thing I've ever heard a politician say about guns."
Loesch, a former spokesperson for the National Rifle Association and a longtime defender of Second Amendment rights, was referring to Biden's claim that adding a brace to a pistol would somehow change the caliber of the bullet coming from said pistol.
WATCH:
Touting his own party's efforts with regard to recent gun control legislation, Biden claimed that they had "made it harder for people buy stabilized brief- braces."
The president then went on to suggest that doing nothing more than adding braces to a firearm would accomplish the physically impossible task of changing the gun's caliber.
"Put a pistol on a brace, it turns into a gun, makes it more, you can have a higher-caliber weapon, higher-caliber bullet coming out of that gun," Biden said.
Loesch said otherwise, however, tweeting, "This is the stupidest thing I've ever heard a politician say about guns. A plastic brace on a gun does not change the CALIBER OF THE GUN or the rate of fire."
And she was far from the only critic who weighed in on the president's claim.
"I put a pistol on a brace, and when it turned into a gun with a higher-caliber, a higher-caliber bullet came out of that gun and made this hole in 26inch steel," @stevensongs joked.
"Oh my. This is elder abuse," Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) added.
"This makes NO sense. Is he okay?" former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee asked.
"Biden's word salads are hilarious but make no mistake, this doddering old man is nothing more than a display of the Dems power," retired Green Beret Joe Kent said. "The Dems don't need a reason or legal standing to brand law abiding citizens felons, they don't even need a charismatic leader, they have raw power."
"According to Joe Biden, if you put 'a pistol on a brace ... it turns into a gun.' Braces also magically change the caliber of that gun and allow different bullets to shoot out of it. This is one of the most insane things I have ever heard him say. Where are the fact checkers?!?" another tweeted
The Republican-led House of Representatives passed a bill this week aimed at overturning Biden's pistol-brace ban - but that bill is expected to stall in the Democrat-controlled Senate, and President Biden has promised a veto if the measure were to pass.

A source familiar said according to the document, the $5 million payments appeared to reference a kind of "retainer" Burisma intended to pay the Bidens to deal with a number of issues, including the investigation led by Shokin. Another source referred to the arrangement as a "pay-to-play" scheme.
Sources familiar told Fox News Digital that the confidential human source believes that the $5 million payment to Joe Biden and the $5 million payment to Hunter Biden occurred, based on his or her conversations with the Burisma executive.
The confidential source said the Burisma executive told him he "paid" the Bidens in such a manner "through so many different bank accounts" that investigators would not be able to "unravel this for at least 10 years."
The document then makes reference to "the Big Guy," which, has been said to be a reference to Joe Biden.
The Burisma executive told the confidential source that he "didn't pay the Big Guy directly."
Sources said the Burisma executive appears to be at a "very, very high level" of the company. One source familiar suggested the confidential source could be referring to the head of Burisma, Mykola Zlochevsky, but said the name of the Burisma executive is redacted in the document.

Biden has acknowledged that when he was vice president, he successfully pressured Ukraine to fire prosecutor Viktor Shokin. At the time, Shokin was investigating Burisma Holdings, and at the time, Hunter had a highly-lucrative role on the board receiving thousands of dollars per month. The then-vice president threatened to withhold $1 billion of critical U.S. aid if Shokin was not fired.
The confidential source, according to the sources familiar with the FD-1023 form, told the Burisma executive he should "get away" from the Bidens and said the executive should "not want to be involved" with them.
A source familiar with the document told Fox News Digital that the confidential human source goes on to detail a later conversation with the Burisma executive following the 2016 presidential election. The confidential source asked the Burisma executive if he was "upset" that Donald Trump won.
WHISTLEBLOWER ALLEGES FBI, DOJ HAVE DOCUMENT REVEALING CRIMINAL SCHEME INVOLVING BIDEN, FOREIGN NATIONAL
The source said the Burisma executive told the confidential source that he was "an oracle," referring to his or her advice to "get away" from the Bidens due to fears of potential investigations into their dealings.
The White House has maintained that President Biden has never been involved in his son's business dealings and has never discussed them with him. And it has noted that removing Shokin was administration policy at the time.
Hunter Biden is currently under federal investigations for his "tax affairs." The investigation began in 2018 and was prompted by suspicious foreign transactions.
The White House declined to comment, pointing to a statement by Joe Biden Thursday calling the allegations "a bunch of malarky."

Grassley said the recordings were "allegedly kept as a sort of insurance policy for the foreign national in case he got into a tight spot."
"The 1023 also indicates that then-Vice President Joe Biden may have been involved in Burisma employing Hunter Biden," Grassley said.
Grassley demanded answers on "what, if anything has the Justice Department and FBI done to investigate?"
"The Justice Department and FBI must show their work," Grassley said. "They no longer deserve the benefit of the doubt."
The FBI brought the document to Capitol Hill last week after House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer subpoenaed it last month. The FBI briefed Comer and committee Ranking Member Jamie Raskin, D-Md., on the form in a SCIF on Capitol Hill, but did not turn over the document. Comer threatened to hold FBI Director Christopher Wray in contempt of Congress.

The FBI made a further accommodation and later brought the form to a secure setting on Capitol Hill for all Oversight Committee members to view, but the document is still not in the committee's possession.
A source familiar told Fox News Digital on Monday that the FBI did not redact the section of the FD-1023 referencing the audio recordings when showing the document to solely to Comer and Raskin, but did so for the full committee briefing. The source said Grassley and Comer had already seen the form, even prior to the FBI sharing it with Congress.
Fox News Digital was exclusively briefed on the contents of the form last week.
Sources told Fox News Digital that the confidential human source told the FBI that the Burisma executive was speaking with the confidential source to "get advice on the best way to go forward" in 2015 and 2016 in gaining U.S. oil rights and getting involved with a U.S. oil company.

According to the FD-1023 form, the confidential human source said the Burisma executive discussed Hunter's role on the board. The confidential human source questioned why the Burisma executive needed his or her advice in acquiring access to U.S. oil if he had Hunter Biden on the board. The Burisma executive answered by referring to Hunter Biden as "dumb."
The Burisma executive explained to the confidential source that Burisma had to "pay the Bidens" because Ukrainian prosecutor Viktor Shokin was investigating Burisma, and explained how difficult it would be to enter the U.S. market in the midst of that investigation.

The confidential source further detailed that conversation, suggesting to the Burisma executive that he "pay the Bidens $50,000 each," to which the Burisma executive replied, it is "not $50,000," it is "$5 million."
"$5 million for one Biden, $5 million for the other Biden," the Burisma executive told the confidential human source, according to a source familiar with the document.

Sen. Chuck Grassley said Monday that the Burisma executive who allegedly paid Joe Biden and Hunter Biden kept 17 audio recordings of his conversations with them as an "insurance policy," citing the FBI FD-1023 form that the bureau briefed congressional lawmakers on.
Grassley, R-Iowa, revealed from the Senate floor Monday what was said to be a redacted reference in the FBI-generated FD-1023 form alleging a criminal bribery scheme between then-Vice President Joe Biden and a foreign national that involved influence over U.S. policy decisions.

Fox News Digital exclusively reported on the contents of the form last week. The FD-1023 form, dated June 30, 2020, is the FBI's interview with a "highly credible" confidential source who detailed multiple meetings and conversations he or she had with a top Burisma executive over the course of several years, starting in 2015. Fox News Digital has not seen the form, which is redacted, but it was described by several sources who are aware of its contents.
EXCLUSIVE: JOE BIDEN ALLEGEDLY PAID $5M BY BURISMA EXECUTIVE AS PART OF A BRIBERY SCHEME, ACCORDING TO FBI DOCUMENT
Grassley said the FD-1023 has a redacted reference that the Burisma executive possesses fifteen audio recordings of phone calls between himself and Hunter Biden.
According to Grassley, the FD-1023 also states that the executive possesses two audio recordings of phone calls between himself and then-Vice President Joe Biden.
Grassley, from the Senate floor, slammed the FBI for not complying with the House Oversight Committee's subpoena, saying Congress "still lacks a full and complete picture with respect to what that document really says."
"That's why it's important that the document be made public without unnecessary redactions for the American people to see," he said. "Let me assist for purposes of transparency."

"At of the end of May 2023, our share among the three major fast-food players amounted to 58%," Govor said, speaking at a press conference devoted to the first anniversary of the rebranded chain.

Trump Indictment Fails Crucial Test: Dershowitz

June 10, 2023

The federal indictment against former President Donald Trump fails a crucial test, law professor Alan Dershowitz says.
"It doesn't meet what I call the Richard Nixon standard, which was a very clear obstruction of justice, destroying evidence, paying bribes," Dershowitz, a professor emeritus at Harvard Law School, said on Newsmax on June 9 after the indictment was unsealed.
"This is too close a case to bring against the man running for president, against the incumbent president," Dershowitz added.
Two paragraphs in the indictment do appear to meet the standard of the planned prosecution of former President Nixon, according to the law professor.
'Highly Confidential' Plan
Those paragraphs refer to Trump allegedly showing an unidentified writer, publisher, and staff members a "highly confidential" plan to attack a country.
U.S. General Mark Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, was quoted in a news story on July 15, 2021, as fighting to stop Trump from ordering an attack on Iran.
Six days later, Trump showed the writer and publisher what he described as a "plan of attack" from the same general.
"Isn't this amazing? This totally wins my case, except it is like, highly confidential," Trump is quoted as saying in the indictment.
"As president, I could have declassified it. Now I can't but this is still a secret," he was also quoted as saying.
The indictment charges Trump with various crimes, including illegally disclosing national defense information.
'Will Have to Be Explained'
"We're going to have to hear an exception from Trump's lawyers or from Trump as to how we can justify having shown to somebody who doesn't have security clearance allegedly some information about a plan to attack Iran," Dershowitz said on Newsmax.
None of the people shown the document held a security clearance, U.S. authorities say.
Trump "may claim he didn't show it to them, just kind of waved it in front of them as part of bragging but that's something that will have to be explained," Dershowitz said. "When you have a tape in the voice of the defendant himself it's hard to dispute, so I think this is a serious indictment on these two charges. Everything else I think was exactly what we expected," he also said.
Trump said after the indictment was released that he is innocent and accused the government of corruption. He shared posts on social media noting that a number of top officials possessed classified information, such as former President Bill Clinton, but were not charged.
'One Set of Laws'
Special counsel Jack Smith, whose presented charges against Trump were approved by a grand jury, said in prepared remarks from Washington that "Our laws that protect national defense information are critical to the safety and security of the United States and they must be enforced" and "violations of those laws put our country at risk."
He added, "We have one set of laws in this country, and they apply to everyone."
Trump has said that he declassified documents before leaving office. Presidents have the power of declassification.
Dershowitz, who represented Trump during one of his impeachment trials, said in an op-ed that one question is whether Trump actually declassified the documents.
"If he claims he did, it will be up to the government to challenge that assertion. It could do so in several ways. It could offer evidence designed to disprove Mr. Trump's claim. But proving a negative-in this case, that he did not declassify the documents-is always difficult," Dershowitz wrote.
"In the usual criminal prosecution, the government has the heavy burden of proving every element of the crime beyond a reasonable doubt," he added later.
Smith said the indictment outlined serious crimes but also noted that Trump and an aide who was charged "must be presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law."

Jim Jordan: Special Counsel Jack Smith Tried to Find Ways to Target Conservatives During Obama-IRS Scandal
He asked rhetorically, "Guess who was the lead person at the Justice Department looking for ways to target and prosecute the very people looking into whoLois Lerner went after?Jack Smith, the guy Merrick Garland just named as special counsel to go after President Trump."
House Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Jim Jordan (R-OH) said on Sunday that Special Counsel Jack Smith tried to find ways to target conservative organizations during the Obama era-IRS scandal.
Jordan said on Fox Business on Sunday that he and Rep. Darrell Issa's (R-CA) 2014 report looking into the IRS's targeting of conservative tax-exempt organizations has potentially troubling context for the Special Counsel investigation into former President Donald Trump.
The interview follows Attorney General Merrick Garland appointing Jack Smith to serve as special counsel to investigate alleged wrongdoing by former President Donald Trump after the FBI raided Trump's home at Mar-a-Lago.
He asked rhetorically, "Guess who was the lead person at the Justice Department looking for ways to target and prosecute the very people looking into who Lois Lerner went after? Jack Smith, the guy Merrick Garland just named as special counsel to go after President Trump."
Attorney General Merrick Garland and Deputy Attorney General Lisa O. Monaco arrive to deliver remarks at the U.S. Justice Department on November 18, 2022 in Washington, DC. Garland announced he will appoint a special counsel to oversee the Justice Department's investigation into former President Donald Trump and his handling of classified documents and actions before the January 6th attack on the U.S. Capitol Building. Garland's pick to oversee the special counsel is Jack Smith, an international criminal court prosecutor. (Anna Moneymaker/getty Images)
Indeed, in September 2010 - Smith, the then-chief of the Justice Department's public integrity section, criminal division - emailed his senior leadership regarding a New York Times article regarding conservative organizations:
Check out [the] article on front page of ny times [sic] regarding misuse of non-profits for indirectly funding campaigns. This seems egregious to me - could we ever charge a [18 U.S.C. ?] 371 conspiracy to violate laws of the USA for misuse of such non profits to get around existing campaign finance laws + limits? I know 501s are legal but if they are knowingly using them beyond what they are allowed to use them for (and we could prove that factually)? IRS Commissioner sarah ingram [sic] oversees these groups. Let's discuss tomorrow but maybe we should try to set up a meeting this week. [Emphasis added]
The House Republican report noted that Smith then proceeded to convene meetings on a "possible 501/campaign finance investigation":
Smith convened meetings on a "possible 501/campaign finance investigation."801 At Smith's direction, Pilger arranged a meeting with Lerner and the IRS to discuss the "evolving legal landscape" of campaign-finance law after the Citizens United decision.802 Pilger intended to engage with Lerner about being "more vigilant to the opportunities from more crime in the . . . 501(c)(4) area."803 He also sought to better understand the "practicalities" of criminally enforcing non-profit political speech, such as whether the IRS could review donor lists of 501(c)(4) organizations for potential violations of campaign-finance law.804 Similarly, the IRS sought to "walk [the Justice Department] through the basic civil rules within [the IRS's] jurisdiction and find out what if anything else they are looking for. . . . These are not tax people so [Lerner] may also take [IRS employee] Joe Urban to do clear perimeters about tax info should they want to do any 6103 fishing (as opposed to public record 6104 info).
During an October 2010 meeting, the Public Integrity section's attorneys, of which Smith was the chief of the section, "expressed concern that certain 501(c) organizations [conservative organizations] are actually political committees 'posing' as if they are not subject to FEC law," and thus could be subject to "criminal liability."
Trump said last week that he would not take partake in the special counsel investigation.

Trump aide Walt Nauta indicted in classified documents case
An aide to former President Donald Trump has been indicted in special counsel Jack Smith's investigation into the mishandling of classified documents from the Trump White House, two sources familiar with the indictment tell CNN.
Walt Nauta's indictment is the second in the special counsel's investigation after Trump was indicted on seven counts on Thursday.
An attorney for Nauta declined to comment. Nauta was with Trump at his Bedminster, New Jersey, golf club this week.

The latest on the federal indictment of Trump in the documents probe
The specific charges against Nauta have not been revealed.
Trump responded to Nauta's indictment on his social media Friday, writing, "They are trying to destroy his life, like the lives of so many others, hoping that he will say bad things about 'Trump.' He is strong, brave, and a Great Patriot. The FBI and DOJ are CORRUPT!"
Nauta's involvement in the movement of boxes of classified material at Trump's Florida resort had been a subject of scrutiny of investigators. Nauta, with the help of a maintenance worker at Mar-a-Lago, moved the boxes before the FBI executed a search warrant on the Palm Beach property last August.
According to court filings last year, the FBI found more than 100 documents marked as classified during the search, which took place weeks after a Trump lawyer signed a statement attesting that the Trump team had complied with a May subpoena seeking production of all documents with classified markings.
Investigators obtained surveillance footage showing Nauta and the worker moving boxes of the classified documents around the resort, CNN previously reported. Nauta had spoken to investigators repeatedly in the probe, at first telling them he hadn't handled boxes or sensitive documents at Mar-a-Lago.

Exclusive: Donald Trump admits on tape he didn't declassify 'secret information'
Once the surveillance footage was turned over, however, Nauta changed his story, CNN previously reported, and, after changing attorneys, the aide stopped talking to investigators all together last fall.
The Wall Street Journal first reported the indictment.

Prince Harry testifies in phone hacking case
The British royal has claimed illegal media tactics damaged his relationships with Prince William and then-girlfriend Chelsy Davy

Prince Harry has become the first British royal in more than 130 years to take the witness stand in court, testifying in a case in which he claims UK publisher Mirror Group Newspapers (MGN) invaded his privacy to report dozens of damaging stories based on illegally obtained information.
The Duke of Sussex testified in London's High Court on Tuesday and Wednesday, alleging that MGN's Daily Mirror newspaper and other publications used voicemail interception and other unlawful information-gathering tactics to uncover private information between 1991 and 2011. However, he provided no concrete evidence of hacking, and while MGN has previously admitted to using such tactics in some stories, the publisher denied doing so in Harry's case.
Harry pointed to a 2007 article about his strained relationship with then-girlfriend Chelsy Davy to suggest that his voicemails must have been hacked. "Everything that is attributed to a palace source I believe is obtained unlawfully because I never spoke to anyone about my relationship with my girlfriend." The media's aggressive tactics also led to Davy's decision to end the relationship, he claimed, "which was incredibly upsetting for me at the time."

The younger son of King Charles III also alleged that MGN's hacking damaged his relationship with his brother, Prince William. One of the 33 articles in question concerned a 2003 dispute between the brothers over whether to meet with their late mother's former butler, Paul Burrell, who had allegedly been selling secrets about Princess Diana to the press. "This sort of article seeds distrust between brothers," Harry testified.

Donald Trump Dominates Iowa Caucus by 42 Points
President Donald Trump leads the Iowa caucus by 42 points, according to the latest Emerson College Polling data.
The survey, taken among 442 Iowa Republican caucus goers, found Trump leading the Republican primary field with overwhelming majority support - 62 percent. No other candidate comes remotely close. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who formally jumped into the race on Wednesday, came in a distant second, 42 points behind, with 20 percent support.
Former Vice President Mike Pence and former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley tied for third place, having five percent support each, followed by Sen. Tim Scott with three percent. Notably, Scott formally jumped into the presidential race on Monday.
Anti-woke businessman Vivek Ramaswamy came behind, with two percent support
The remaining candidates, including former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson and New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu, saw one percent support or less.
Spencer Kimball, executive director of Emerson College Polling, noted that Trump's lead "reflects his numbers in Emerson's March New Hampshire primary poll, where he held a 41-point lead over DeSantis."
"The former president's base continues to be voters under 35: 75 percent of whom support Trump, and voters without a college degree: 70 percent support Trump. DeSantis's support is higher among voters with a postgraduate degree, with 29 percent support, still trailing Trump's 37 percent with this group," Kimball added.
Notably, this survey was taken prior to DeSantis formally jumping into the presidential ring.

The poll also examined potential 2024 general election matchups and found Trump leading President Joe Biden by 11 points, or 49 percent to Biden's 38 percent. It also showed DeSantis leading Biden but by a lesser amount - 45 percent to Biden's 38 percent.

20:26, 4 Jun 2023UPDATED21:07, 4 Jun 2023
The sound of a huge explosion was heard in the area surrounding Washington DC as the US military conducted air defence drills, reports say.
The City of Annapolis Office of Emergency Management said an authorised Department of Defence flight caused the sound, heard just after 8pm local time and registered as a 'seismic-like event'.
The authority said: "The loud boom that was heard across the DMV area was caused by an authorized DOD flight.
"This flight caused a sonic boom."
Residents in nearby Maryland and Virginia all reported hearing a large explosion - which sparked panic.
The plane departed from Joint Base Andrews in Maryland, the home of Air Force One.
People in both Annapolis and Dale City, Virginia, which are around 60 miles apart, both reported a strange sound.

Forty-five bags containing human remains with characteristics matching seven missing call center staff has been discovered in a ravine in a suburb of Guadalajara, according to the state prosecutor's office in Jalisco.
The Jalisco State Prosecutor's Office investigating the deaths said it has preliminary information that the body parts "match the physical characteristics of some of the young people missing employees of the call center."
Seven call center employees were reported missing between May 20 and 22 in the metropolitan area of ??Guadalajara, in western Mexico.
Luis Joaqu?n M?ndez Ru?z, a Jalisco prosecutor, said they found the human remains inside bags thrown on a lot with a very steep slope.
Forensic experts have yet to determine the number of victims and their identities.
The Jalisco Institute of Forensic Sciences is working with the families of those missing to determine the identification of the human remains.
The country has been troubled by an epidemic of disappearances with more than 100,000 Mexicans and migrants still missing.
More than 1,500 bodies have been found in Jalisco state since 2018, official figures show. According to the office of the Jalisco's special prosecutor for missing persons, 291 bodies were discovered in 2019, 544 bodies were found in 2020, 280 bodies in 2021, and 301 the following year. So far in 2023, 147 bodies have been found.
In March, after four Americans were kidnapped in Mexico, resulting in the deaths of two of them, Mexican President Andr?s Manuel L?pez Obrador argued that Mexico is a safer country than the United States.
Kidnapping and human trafficking are also not unusual in parts of Mexico, particularly in border areas and Mexico's overall homicide rate is among the highest in the world.

Ukraine's backers running out of available weapons - UK
The British defence secretary says Western countries will have to purchase arms for Kiev instead of donating from stockpiles

Western nations' military stockpiles are being increasingly depleted, forcing them to seek armaments elsewhere to prop up Ukraine, UK Defence Secretary Ben Wallace has warned. He also downplayed Kiev's hopes of joining NATO in the foreseeable future.
In an interview with The Washington Post published on Friday, Wallace commended the West for continuing to send defense aid to Ukraine amid its military standoff with Russia. However, the minister acknowledged that "we have seen reality, which is that we are all running out" of weapons and equipment that can be donated.
The UK and other nations are increasingly having to purchase arms on the international market for Ukraine, as opposed to tapping into their existing stockpiles, the official explained.
When asked about the prospects of Ukraine joining NATO, Wallace warned against overpromising to aspirants such as Kiev.

>ow Covid-19 myths are merging with the QAnon conspiracy theory
Conspiracy stream
Some of those in Saturday's crowd were presumably drawn by legitimate concerns about mental health, the economy, criticism of government policy or by questions about still-evolving science.
But, overwhelmingly, what attendees heard from the speakers was a steady stream of bad information (about coronavirus death rates), groundless speculation (about child abuse and "mandatory" vaccinations) and baseless assertions (about the pandemic being planned by governments or shadowy forces - or in the words of the conspiracy theorists, a "plandemic").
The overwhelming majority of the content was about conspiracies," says Joe Mulhall, a senior researcher at Hope Not Hate, an advocacy group which tracks far-right and conspiracy movements.
"Very little of it came from a constructive viewpoint. There were no speakers talking about, for instance, the impact of the lockdown on small businesses," says Mulhall, who was at Saturday's event.
And conspiratorial thinking wasn't limited to the UK - similar signs could be seen in weekend demonstrations in Boston, Berlin and elsewhere. QAnon and coronavirus conspiracy theories have truly gone international.

Family conflict
One man who contacted the BBC says his mother attended the London demonstration and carried two posters. One featured a coronavirus conspiracy theory: "Arrest Bill Gates for crimes against humanity". The other had a QAnon hashtag: "#SavetheChildren" (which is used along with "#SaveourChildren", but has no association with the charity of the same name).
The man, who wanted to remain anonymous for fear of falling out with his family, explained how his mother adopted conspiratorial views after becoming increasingly obsessed with YouTube videos of a number of the protest speakers.
"She's become so into these different conspiracy theories, it's becoming difficult to pin down what she believes. Everything contradicts each other," he explained.
His mother's transformation has put a huge strain on their relationship.
"She's always sending videos and messages promoting these conspiracy theories on the family WhatsApp chat now," he says. "It's so hard to have a normal conversation."
One of the groups behind Saturday's rally said it takes "no views about QAnon."
"It was a public rally organised by many different groups and individuals. We didn't have a person to fact check people before participating," said StandUpX via Twitter. "We cannot be accountable for the views of each and everyone appearing at the rally."
People hold up banners reading "plandemic"
Spreading fast
"What worries us is that these lines of thought are being linked into a super-conspiracy with QAnon as its backbone," says Joe Mulhall of Hope Not Hate. "Q allows you to join the dots between all different conspiracies - there's a secret cabal doing things behind the scenes. And as soon as you talk about super-conspiracies and secret hands, it is a short step to the 'other' and in many cases, that means 'Jews'.
"Anti-Semitism is never far from the surface of these conspiracy theories," he adds.
"The potential audiences for dangerous disinformation are growing and harder to isolate and contain," says Chloe Colliver of the ISD. "They are becoming so inter-connected that it is hard for tech platforms at this late stage to now get a grip on limiting the reach of potentially dangerous disinformation."
In recent weeks, Twitter has acted to remove a number of big QAnon accounts; Facebook has closed large many QAnon groups; and thousands of QAnon Instagram pages have been removed. TikTok has also blocked hashtags linked to the conspiracy theory.
QAnon: Facebook takes action on conspiracy groups
In response, the conspiracy theorists have pivoted to new slogans and hashtags - for instance, #SaveTheChildren.
The growing conspiracy movement - while still at the fringes - seems to be picking up momentum on the streets.
"We can't pick up all the events that are being organised," Joe Mulhall says. "They're being set up too fast."

Protesters gathered in London on Saturday to hear about a range of coronavirus-related conspiracy theories
By Marianna Spring and Mike Wendling
BBC Anti-disinformation unit
Online and in real-life demonstrations, two viral conspiracy theories are increasingly coming together.
At first glance the only thing they appear to have in common is their vast distance from reality.
On one hand, QAnon: a convoluted conspiracy theory that contends that President Trump is waging a secret war against Satan-worshipping elite paedophiles.
On the other, a swirling mass of pseudoscience claiming that coronavirus does not exist, or is not fatal, or any number of other baseless claims.
These two ideas are now increasingly coming together, in a grand conspiracy mash-up.
Linked up
It was apparent on the streets of London last weekend, where speakers addressing thousands of followers at an anti-mask, anti-lockdown demonstration touched on both themes. Posters promoting QAnon and a range of other conspiracy theories were on display.
On Sunday, President Trump retweeted a message claiming the true number of Covid-19 deaths in the United States was a small fraction of the official numbers. The tweet was later deleted by Twitter under its policy on misinformation.
The account that posted it - "Mel Q" - is still live, and is a copious spreader of QAnon ideas.
QAnon's main strand of thought is that President Trump is leading a fight against child trafficking that will end in a day of reckoning with prominent politicians and journalists being arrested and executed.
Mel Q is just one of many QAnon influencers who have also been plugging coronavirus disinformation.
The merger between QAnon and Covid-19 conspiracies is also apparent in a number of emails received by the BBC.
"Coronavirus is a cover-up for... child sex trafficking - a major issue in this world and nobody wants to report about it," one typical email read.
Another man got in touch to explain how his mother - who attended the protests - has been led down the rabbit hole over the course of the pandemic, taken in first by coronavirus conspiracy theories and now by QAnon.
Satanic paedophiles, anti-vaxxers and 5G
There has long been overlap between QAnon influencers and pandemic conspiracists, but the weekend protests in London and other cities around the world were the biggest offline demonstration to date of their increasing ties.
"Proponents of Covid conspiracies have found ready-made audiences in the QAnon crowd and vice versa," says Chloe Colliver, senior policy director at the Institute for Strategic Dialogue (ISD), a think tank focused on extremism.
"In the face of the pandemic, conspiracy theories paint a world that is ordered, and controllable," explains Open University psychologist Jovan Byford. "Conspiracy theories flourish when social machinery breaks down and available ways of making sense of the world prove inadequate for what is going on."
While the pandemic has increased the overall potential audience for such ideas, the QAnon and coronavirus strands are also linked by a preoccupation - or obsession - with children and their safety.
That explains why we've seen these theories spread in local Facebook groups where more benign discussions cover which cafes are baby-friendly or which local schools make the grade.
"Child abuse is the epitome of sexual and moral depravity and something that is indisputably evil," Jovan Byford says, "so its incorporation into the theory helps take the idea of the conspirators' monstrosity and iniquity to the absolute, unquestionable extreme."

FOIA records show state governments and local police are buying thousands of Chinese drones made by DJI and Autel, flying them all over the East Coast. Marco Rubio says there's "no excuse."
In Washington D.C., lawmakers have been banging the drum about China potentially turning drones from Beijing's industry giants into remote aerial surveillance machines, threatening national security and Americans' privacy. Yet U.S. cops and states continue to purchase Beijing manufacturers' drones. Freedom of Information Act responses and previously-unreported police data reveal state and local agencies have registered thousands of Chinese flying machines from companies Autel and DJI, the world's biggest drone maker valued at $16 billion.
That even extends to the United States Capitol Police: records of state government drone registrations at the Federal Aviation Administration show the United States Capitol Police has four models manufactured by China's Autel Robotics. They are the only drones currently in use by the Capitol Police, according to spokesman Tim Barber, who said they were acquired last year for $2,000 each, but are yet to be deployed around Washington D.C. and were being used for training with no access to the department's network. The purchases came to light thanks to freedom of information requests filed by Jerome Greco, who filed the FOIAs outside of his role as supervising attorney at the Legal Aid Society.
That Capitol Police chose Chinese manufacturer Autel for its only drone purchases rather than buy American is indicative of a wider trend: Autel and DJI have 70% market share in the local government market across Florida, New Jersey, New York and Washington D.C., and dominance amongst major police departments in Maryland and Virginia. But states may soon have to bring the manufacturers and their drones back down to earth, should others follow Ron DeSantis' lead in Florida and ban China-made unmanned aerial vehicles over intelligence concerns, or Congress pass proposed legislation to counter the apparent threat of foreign espionage.
The American intelligence community's fears about Chinese spying have manifested in various attempts to curtail Beijing's biggest technology companies and their data gathering efforts, the most prominent example being recent threats to outlaw TikTok, owned by Beijing's ByteDance. Huawei and ZTE are amongst the bigger names to have already suffered; the White House has blocked their entrance into the U.S. market.

"I would hope we can get through this conversation and have everybody acknowledge that it is the will of the board and actually offer a recommendation to the General Assembly about voter ID for all voters and make a recommendation that ensures that everybody who's voting is eligible to vote, is who they say they are, without disenfranchising a single voter," Diamond said. "We may make that recommendation before the 2024 election, but as far as getting it legislated-I would highly doubt that getting that legislated would happen. Because right before a presidential election is probably not the time you want to make any kind of major change to the election code. We've done it before. It's not the best approach."

==They're Kosovo's national heroes - now they're accused of war crimes
In a tiny state where Blair and Clinton are idolised, a Nato success story is threatening to turn very sour==
Should Sir Tony Blair or Bill Clinton ever feel nostalgic for their days in office, a red carpet and crowd of flag-waving supporters await them in the tiny Balkan nation of Kosovo.
The former British and American leaders are revered as heroes in Pristina, the Kosovo capital: a large bronze statue of Clinton holds pride of place on "Bill Clinton Boulevard". A whole generation of men are named Tonibler or Toni after Britain's former prime minister.
"We'll never forget the special role that the UK had in the Nato intervention to stop Serbian genocide," said Albin Kurti, the prime minister, adding that he hoped Blair might come to a "liberation day" celebration this summer.

Trouble is brewing, however, in the fledgling state that broke from Serbia - with the help of Nato's military intervention - in 1999 at the end of a brutal war. Now the violent past has come back to haunt it.
Unrest has stirred over a war crimes tribunal set up to judge not Serbian atrocities, but those of the ethnic Albanian guerrilla army whose commanders ended up running the country.
Standing trial in the Hague are four former commanders of the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) accused of purging their ranks and political rivals in a wave of murderous violence after the war. One is Hashim Thaci, a former president of Kosovo. Many here regard him as the country's founding father and the case against him as a smear on the legitimacy of the independence struggle and its heroes.
"These men helped win our freedom and independence, it's the Serbs who should be judged for the massacres here, not them," said Besian Marina, 38, owner of the Hillary dress shop, named after Clinton's wife, the former first lady. Wesley Clark, the retired American general who ran Nato's operations in Kosovo, is another foreign hero remembered - with a driving school bearing his name.
But for all their gratitude to Nato, Kosovars, as the country's mainly ethnic Albanian citizens are known, are annoyed with their international allies for foisting on them the war crimes tribunal - their government agreed to it only under pressure from the EU and Americans. Many citizens have taken to the streets in protest.
Kurti, prime minister since 2021, told me in an interview that he had never supported the court, which operates under Kosovo law but is based in the Hague. He is worried it might help Serbia to "rewrite history", shifting the focus on to Kosovar crimes.
"I support accountability for the war. However, I find it unfair that the spotlight is being put on Kosovo while Serbia has not only refused to take responsibility for its crimes but denies them."
The tribunal also would encourage Russia's regional "game" of undermining Kosovo, which has been governed as a UN protectorate and, since 2008, as an independent state, just as it has begun to make progress battling rampant corruption and crime as well as expanding its economy.
Kurti believed the Kremlin saw in Kosovo and the Balkans a possible "second front" against Natoafter the invasion of Ukraine. "Kosovo is a Nato success story, the Russians want it to fail."
In December, he recalled, a large group of members of the Narodne Patrole, a Serbian nationalist organisation with ties to the Russian Wagner paramilitary group, massed on the Serbian side of the border with Kosovo, threatening to confront Nato troops.
"One hundred miles from the place that we're conducting this interview in the prime minister's office is a Russian base," Kurti added, referring to Moscow's so-called "humanitarian centre" in the Serb town of Nis. "It's full of spies and agents engaging in hybrid warfare."
Aidan Hehir, an expert in international relations at London's University of Westminster, said the country's international overlords had hoped putting Kosovars on trial in the Hague would "appease" Serbia, an aspiring member of the EU, helping to keep it out of Russia's embrace.
"But instead it will embolden Serb nationalists and anger Albanian Kosovars," he added. "People feel like they're being betrayed by their allies, it could be the final straw for many people."

Senators issued satellite phones, offered demonstrations on upgraded security devices
By Scott MacFarlane
Updated on: May 24, 2023 / 10:57 AM / CBS News
Amid growing concerns of security risks to members of Congress, over 50 senators have been issued satellite phones for emergency communication, people familiar with the measures told CBS News. The devices are part of a series of new security measures being offered to senators by the Senate Sergeant at Arms, who took over shortly after the assault on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
The satellite phone technology has been offered to all 100 senators. CBS News has learned at least 50 have accepted the phones, which Senate administrative staff recommend senators keep in close proximity during their travels.
In testimony before the Senate Appropriations Committee last month, Senate Sergeant at Arms Karen Gibson said satellite communication is being deployed "to ensure a redundant and secure means of communication during a disruptive event."
Gibson said the phones are a security backstop in the case of an emergency that "takes out communications" in part of America. Federal funding will pay for the satellite airtime needed to utilize the phone devices.
A Department of Homeland Security advisory said satellite phones are a tool for responding to and coordinating government services in the case of a "man-made" or natural disaster that wipes out communication.
Gibson has also opened an office "demonstration space" in the basement of the Russell Senate Office Building to offer senators and staff an exhibition of new home state office security upgrades. The demonstration room offers exhibitions of "duress buttons," mail screening devices and safety glass to reduce the risk of attacks.

In her testimony before the Senate panel in April, Gibson reported, "Our team provided initial physical security enhancements for 31 offices and improved existing security for 52 others in 2022. Maintaining security systems in good working order is a priority, and to support this effort our team conducted over 622 service calls to maintain, repair, and or test and inspect state office physical security systems in 2022."
Senate administrators have also offered "stop the bleed" training to better equip staffers to respond to medical emergencies and victims of attacks.
In April, the House Sergeant at Arms William McFarland told legislators there is "robust participation" in a program to help House members secure their home residences. McFarland said that House administrators are coordinating with local police departments to help protect members of Congress who hold events in their home states and to help better secure the homes of members.
A spending bill passed in late 2022 provided additional funds for hometown security measures for Congress. The legislation required security administrators to "enhance member protection including providing a security program for Congressional Leadership, expanding Dignitary Protection Division services and expanding USCP field office presence," which would deploy and broaden Capitol Police protection in cities outside of Washington.
Though the U.S. Capitol complex is shielded by a force of nearly 2,000 Capitol police employees, there have been growing concerns about hometown security for members of Congress. A California man was charged in a 2022 attack at the San Francisco home of then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. The assailant was allegedly targeting Nancy Pelosi when he confronted and attacked Pelosi's husband Paul with a hammer.
In a May 15 attack at the Fairfax, Virginia, office of Rep. Gerry Connolly, one of Connolly's constituents is accused of attacking two of the congressman's staffers with a metal baseball bat. Both were briefly hospitalized and are recovering.

"This deal had generated press, it had captured the attention of Congress and it was strategically important," said Richard Russell, who served on the committee during the George W. Bush administration. "When I was there invariably any one of those conditions would cause this to get pushed way up the chain, and here you had all three."
And Mrs. Clinton brought a reputation for hawkishness to the process; as a senator, she was a vocal critic of the committee's approval of a deal that would have transferred the management of major American seaports to a company based in the United Arab Emirates, and as a presidential candidate she had advocated legislation to strengthen the process.
The Clinton campaign spokesman, Mr. Fallon, said that in general, these matters did not rise to the secretary's level. He would not comment on whether Mrs. Clinton had been briefed on the matter, but he gave The Times a statement from the former assistant secretary assigned to the foreign investment committee at the time, Jose Fernandez. While not addressing the specifics of the Uranium One deal, Mr. Fernandez said, "Mrs. Clinton never intervened with me on any C.F.I.U.S. matter."
Mr. Fallon also noted that if any agency had raised national security concerns about the Uranium One deal, it could have taken them directly to the president.
Anne-Marie Slaughter, the State Department's director of policy planning at the time, said she was unaware of the transaction - or the extent to which it made Russia a dominant uranium supplier. But speaking generally, she urged caution in evaluating its wisdom in hindsight.
"Russia was not a country we took lightly at the time or thought was cuddly," she said. "But it wasn't the adversary it is today."
That renewed adversarial relationship has raised concerns about European dependency on Russian energy resources, including nuclear fuel. The unease reaches beyond diplomatic circles. In Wyoming, where Uranium One equipment is scattered across his 35,000-acre ranch, John Christensen is frustrated that repeated changes in corporate ownership over the years led to French, South African, Canadian and, finally, Russian control over mining rights on his property.
"I hate to see a foreign government own mining rights here in the United States," he said. "I don't think that should happen."
Mr. Christensen, 65, noted that despite assurances by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission that uranium could not leave the country without Uranium One or ARMZ obtaining an export license - which they do not have - yellowcake from his property was routinely packed into drums and trucked off to a processing plant in Canada.
Asked about that, the commission confirmed that Uranium One has, in fact, shipped yellowcake to Canada even though it does not have an export license. Instead, the transport company doing the shipping, RSB Logistic Services, has the license. A commission spokesman said that "to the best of our knowledge" most of the uranium sent to Canada for processing was returned for use in the United States. A Uranium One spokeswoman, Donna Wichers, said 25 percent had gone to Western Europe and Japan. At the moment, with the uranium market in a downturn, nothing is being shipped from the Wyoming mines.
The "no export" assurance given at the time of the Rosatom deal is not the only one that turned out to be less than it seemed. Despite pledges to the contrary, Uranium One was delisted from the Toronto Stock Exchange and taken private. As of 2013, Rosatom's subsidiary, ARMZ, owned 100 percent of it.

"Equally alarming," Mr. Barrasso added, "this sale gives ARMZ a significant stake in uranium mines in Kazakhstan."
Uranium One's shareholders were also alarmed, and were "afraid of Rosatom as a Russian state giant," Sergei Novikov, a company spokesman, recalled in an interview. He said Rosatom's chief, Mr. Kiriyenko, sought to reassure Uranium One investors, promising that Rosatom would not break up the company and would keep the same management, including Mr. Telfer, the chairman. Another Rosatom official said publicly that it did not intend to increase its investment beyond 51 percent, and that it envisioned keeping Uranium One a public company
American nuclear officials, too, seemed eager to assuage fears. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission wrote to Mr. Barrasso assuring him that American uranium would be preserved for domestic use, regardless of who owned it.
"In order to export uranium from the United States, Uranium One Inc. or ARMZ would need to apply for and obtain a specific NRC license authorizing the export of uranium for use as reactor fuel," the letter said.
Still, the ultimate authority to approve or reject the Russian acquisition rested with the cabinet officials on the foreign investment committee, including Mrs. Clinton - whose husband was collecting millions in donations from people associated with Uranium One.
Undisclosed Donations
Before Mrs. Clinton could assume her post as secretary of state, the White House demanded that she sign a memorandum of understanding placing limits on the activities of her husband's foundation. To avoid the perception of conflicts of interest, beyond the ban on foreign government donations, the foundation was required to publicly disclose all contributors.
To judge from those disclosures - which list the contributions in ranges rather than precise amounts - the only Uranium One official to give to the Clinton Foundation was Mr. Telfer, the chairman, and the amount was relatively small: no more than $250,000, and that was in 2007, before talk of a Rosatom deal began percolating.

Still, the company's story was hardly front-page news in the United States - until early 2008, in the midst of Mrs. Clinton's failed presidential campaign, when The Times published an article revealing the 2005 trip's link to Mr. Giustra's Kazakhstan mining deal. It also reported that several months later, Mr. Giustra had donated $31.3 million to Mr. Clinton's foundation.
(In a statement issued after this article appeared online, Mr. Giustra said he was "extremely proud" of his charitable work with Mr. Clinton, and he urged the media to focus on poverty, health care and "the real challenges of the world.")
Though the 2008 article quoted the former head of Kazatomprom, Moukhtar Dzhakishev, as saying that the deal required government approval and was discussed at a dinner with the president, Mr. Giustra insisted that it was a private transaction, with no need for Mr. Clinton's influence with Kazakh officials. He described his relationship with Mr. Clinton as motivated solely by a shared interest in philanthropy.
As if to underscore the point, five months later Mr. Giustra held a fund-raiser for the Clinton Giustra Sustainable Growth Initiative, a project aimed at fostering progressive environmental and labor practices in the natural resources industry, to which he had pledged $100 million. The star-studded gala, at a conference center in Toronto, featured performances by Elton John and Shakira and celebrities like Tom Cruise, John Travolta and Robin Williams encouraging contributions from the many so-called F.O.F.s - Friends of Frank - in attendance, among them Mr. Telfer. In all, the evening generated $16 million in pledges, according to an article in The Globe and Mail.
"None of this would have been possible if Frank Giustra didn't have a remarkable combination of caring and modesty, of vision and energy and iron determination," Mr. Clinton told those gathered, adding: "I love this guy, and you should, too."
But what had been a string of successes was about to hit a speed bump.
Arrest and Progress
By June 2009, a little over a year after the star-studded evening in Toronto, Uranium One's stock was in free-fall, down 40 percent. Mr. Dzhakishev, the head of Kazatomprom, had just been arrested on charges that he illegally sold uranium deposits to foreign companies, including at least some of those won by Mr. Giustra's UrAsia and now owned by Uranium One.
Publicly, the company tried to reassure shareholders. Its chief executive, Jean Nortier, issued a confident statement calling the situation a "complete misunderstanding." He also contradicted Mr. Giustra's contention that the uranium deal had not required government blessing. "When you do a transaction in Kazakhstan, you need the government's approval," he said, adding that UrAsia had indeed received that approval.

At the time, both Rosatom and the United States government made promises intended to ease concerns about ceding control of the company's assets to the Russians. Those promises have been repeatedly broken, records show.
The New York Times's examination of the Uranium One deal is based on dozens of interviews, as well as a review of public records and securities filings in Canada, Russia and the United States. Some of the connections between Uranium One and the Clinton Foundation were unearthed by Peter Schweizer, a former fellow at the right-leaning Hoover Institution and author of the forthcoming book "Clinton Cash." Mr. Schweizer provided a preview of material in the book to The Times, which scrutinized his information and built upon it with its own reporting.
Whether the donations played any role in the approval of the uranium deal is unknown. But the episode underscores the special ethical challenges presented by the Clinton Foundation, headed by a former president who relied heavily on foreign cash to accumulate $250 million in assets even as his wife helped steer American foreign policy as secretary of state, presiding over decisions with the potential to benefit the foundation's donors.
In a statement, Brian Fallon, a spokesman for Mrs. Clinton's presidential campaign, said no one "has ever produced a shred of evidence supporting the theory that Hillary Clinton ever took action as secretary of state to support the interests of donors to the Clinton Foundation." He emphasized that multiple United States agencies, as well as the Canadian government, had signed off on the deal and that, in general, such matters were handled at a level below the secretary. "To suggest the State Department, under then-Secretary Clinton, exerted undue influence in the U.S. government's review of the sale of Uranium One is utterly baseless," he added.
American political campaigns are barred from accepting foreign donations. But foreigners may give to foundations in the United States. In the days since Mrs. Clinton announced her candidacy for president, the Clinton Foundation has announced changes meant to quell longstanding concerns about potential conflicts of interest in such donations; it has limited donations from foreign governments, with many, like Russia's, barred from giving to all but its health care initiatives. That policy stops short of a more stringent agreement between Mrs. Clinton and the Obama administration that was in effect while she was secretary of state.
Either way, the Uranium One deal highlights the limits of such prohibitions. The foundation will continue to accept contributions from foreign sources whose interests, like Uranium One's, may overlap with those of foreign governments, some of which may be at odds with the United States.
When the Uranium One deal was approved, the geopolitical backdrop was far different from today's. The Obama administration was seeking to "reset" strained relations with Russia. The deal was strategically important to Mr. Putin, who shortly after the Americans gave their blessing sat down for a staged interview with Rosatom's chief executive, Sergei Kiriyenko. "Few could have imagined in the past that we would own 20 percent of U.S. reserves," Mr. Kiriyenko told Mr. Putin.

Senate Democrat Announces He Will Not Seek Another Term

Four-term Delaware Democrat Sen. Tom Carper announced Monday that he will not seek re-election in 2024.
"Some 59 years have passed since I first raised my hand as a 17-year-old naval midshipman, and P3 mission aircraft commander," Carper said at a press conference, adding that his final 20 months in office would be a "sprint" as he works to accomplish items that are important to him.
"Carper has held elected office since 1977, when he became Delaware state treasurer, and has won 14 statewide elections without a loss. He served in the House of Representatives from 1983-1993 and was governor of the state for two terms. Carper also served three tours in Vietnam as a National Aviation Officer, and is the last veteran of the conflict currently serving in the Senate," the Daily Caller reported.
"Carper is the fourth Democratic senator to announce a retirement ahead of the 2024 cycle, joining Ben Cardin of Maryland, Debbie Stabenow of Michigan, and Dianne Feinstein of California. At the same point in the 2022 cycle, no Senate Democrats had announced their retirement, although five representatives had," the outlet added.
Earlier this month, Maryland Democrat Sen. Ben Cardin announced he will not seek re-election in 2024, setting up a potential battle for the U.S. Senate seat.
"I was taught that it's okay to compromise - don't ever compromise your principles - but find a path to get things done. Inspire trust in those around you. Keep your word and, again, listen," Cardin said in a statement.
"You know, Myrna, it's been the honor of my life to represent the people of Maryland first in the Maryland General Assembly, then as Speaker of the House, later as a member of the House of Representatives, and now as a United States Senator," Cardin said. "When this term ends, it will be my last year as an elected official. I will not seek re-election."
"It's time," Cardin said. "I always knew this election cycle would be the one I would be thinking about not running again, so it's not something that hit me by surprise. I enjoy life. There are other things I can do."
"The genial Marylander had been contemplating his plans for months as Democrats eyed his seat. The 79-year-old Cardin is a fixture in Maryland politics, serving first in the statehouse, then the House and then in the Senate since 2007. He's the third Senate Democrat to announce they won't run for reelection, joining Sens. Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.) and Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.). Of those three states, only Michigan is considered competitive," Politico reported.
"Cardin's announcement will almost certainly jolt the Old Line State's congressional delegation and political apparatus. Democrats from all corners will consider running for a safe seat that's also within driving distance of the Capitol - as plum a gig as you'll find in politics. Prince George's County Executive Angela Alsobrooks and Reps. Jamie Raskin and David Trone are among those rumored to be considering runs. Cardin's opening also could particularly pave the way for a candidate from Baltimore, where the senator is from," the outlet added.
"I salute my friend and our state's senior Senator Ben Cardin on his extraordinary public service to Maryland and our country," Sen. Chris Van Hollen of Maryland said in a statement Monday. "It is a privilege to serve alongside him and in partnership every day for the people of our great state."
"Democrats are quickly realizing that the Senate won't be any fun for them when Republicans retake the majority in 2024," National Republican Senatorial Committee spokesperson Tate Mitchell told Fox News.
This has opened up speculation that former Republican Maryland Governor Larry Hogan could run for his seat in 2024.
On a national scale, President Joe Biden is continuing to lose a key voting bloc which will make his path to reelection next year even more difficult.
Hispanics, in particular, are abandoning Biden in droves, and there appear to be multiple reasons for it.

Q Research General #23127: Time Traveller's Edition
satanists love the art, museum, foundation business - for good reason. Art can have any assigned value. An art market can be created overnight in a previously unknown artist like Keith Haring. This makes art/museums antiquities a perfect way to move money around, while, at the same time, promoting inventory or stock-in-trade, art, as a store of long-term value.
A painting is worth what you say it is if you're the getty Museum, the Hammer, the Broad, the Norval, the Huntington or the whatever-cult-tycoon is pretending philanthropy and laughing at us as we reverently troop through their art gallery front operation. There's another good, valid and unholy reason satanic cult con artists like to use art galleries foundations and museum cover structures as operational fronts.
In the case of *art* we've been POWERFULLY conditioned never to seriously question art. Anyone who says "my kid could do that- " is culturally defined as an idiot. Only an ignoramus questions art. We've been taught this in movies and sitcoms, we've been told a hundred ways, a thousand times: only vulgar and uneducated people criticize art. Philistines. Prudes. Hicks. Yokels. Furthermore, we are taught that art is a specialist area, and if we aren't specialists or insiders, we couldn't possibly have anything worthwhile to say and we ought keep our crude thoughts to ourselves and our boorish mouths shut around what we don't understand; because art is sacrosanct; the sacred self-expression of the individual.
Decades of this powerful conditioning allowed Pedosta's fat brother Tony to pose for a multi-page spread in a glitzy DC magazine with his daemonic sculpture of a gilded homosexual torture victim and with pictures of abused children in bizarre ritual locations. ART. The same conditioning protects Marina Abramovic and the crowd of *stars" and *celebrities" photographed eating an *art* corpse soaked in honey at an *art* event. It's ART. The pedovores are rightfully confident in the powers of our conditioning to protect them that they licensed photos of themselves with forks stuck into the honeyed *art* corpse to be published in *art* & fashion magazines, blogs and supermarket tabloids. The honeyed corpse is a gnostic occult ritual. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mellified_man
Why do satanist pedovores parade their pathology in front of us? When we see Tony Pedosta, John "Skippy" Pedosta's brother's sculpture we do not understand consciously what we are seeing is a gold leaf covered model Dahmer's homosexual torture victim. What effect does seeing something we don't consciously understand or necessarily recall having seen have on us?
A lot. This is the "secret" of the effectiveness subliminal and subsonic embed programming. Words and images we don't know that we've seen are perceived by the unconscious component of our minds. We know this because tests using subliminal embeds not consciously seen still raises our blood pressure, increases our pulse rate, and fMRI studies show that these unperceived influences activate portions of the brain associated with memory and emotional trauma. We *do* understand sex and death images unconsciously and traumatic images are retained in memory below the threshold of conscious awareness to influence our future behavior over time. Images of sex and violence in unconscious memory affect us like PTSD caused by real world exposure to rape, torture, child pornography or physical trauma.
Information War or IW operations target the unconscious mind. This "witchcraft" works best when we are *not* aware of images we've been exposed to subliminally or even that we are being targeted at all.
Sculpture of Dahmer's torture victim is presented at galleries and in publicity as fashionable, highly sought after, rare and precious work collected by knowledgeable, prominent people like Tony and John Podesta.
satanist's social subversion/sabotage operations exploit our strongest social conditioning. Art world institutions, galleries and foundations are trumpeted as the highest form of philanthropy and criticizing them is not just foolish it's ungrateful. Art is a satanist controlled industrial market. Since the days of Bernard Berenson art has been used to create and launder money to authenticate forgeries and to smuggle antiquities. Big art shows and exposition are used to emotionally prime us for coming events, to predispose individuals and groups to adopt preferred attitudes, practices or behaviors in a multitude of social dimensions; while, at the same, generating enormous profits, tax breaks and (through school outreach programs) providing access to children.

MSM is blind
'Brits are dying in their tens of thousands - and we don't really have any idea why'
Tens of thousands more Brits died than usual from May to December 2022, excluding Covid as a cause of death, raising serious questions as to why so many died
Tens of thousands more Brits were dying than expected and experts aren't quite sure why that is.
From May to December last year, there were 32,441 excess deaths in England and Wales, excluding deaths from Covid.
Excess deaths are defined as the number of people who died above the five-year average - worked out excluding 2020 due to how Covid spiked death figures that year.
This means that over 32,000 Brits would've been expected to be alive, but died according to Office for National Statistics (ONS) figures across this period.
These shocking figures raised a number of important questions about what is happening to the country's populations, how it's changing, and why so many more people are dying.
It isn't quite clear why so many more Brits than expected have died recently (stock image) ( Image:
getty Images/iStockphoto)
Ever since the Covid pandemic, excess deaths have fluctuated wildly month on month, tumbling well below the five-year average or spiking far above it.
The spikes in excess deaths can be attributed to a number of causes, but it isn't clear what's driving these spikes or causing these drop-offs.
Similarly, earlier in 2022, excess deaths dipped well below average levels, with one expert group speculating to the Mirror that a 'mortality displacement' effect might explain why so many deaths are bunched up in the space of several months, being passed on from the months prior.
Professor David Coleman, Emeritus Professor of Demography at Oxford University, told the Mirror that no one knew for certain what had caused so many deaths throughout last year.
He pointed out that, post Covid, the UK's population had been changed through the deaths of a significant proportion of elderly due to the virus.
He explained: "Once those poor people have been packed off, the remaining population should be healthier, there should be a period afterwards where deaths are lower than usual but that hasn't happened."
But he highlighted two key reasons that could contribute towards spiking excess deaths, the fact Britain's getting older, and gaining a larger average body-mass index.
"The population is getting older, and also the population in Britain is the fattest in Europe and rather vulnerable to diseases notably heart disease and diabetes; some people have been forecasting separately from Covid that death rates would continue to get worse because the country is so unhealthy," he said.
One of the noted causes behind a number of the excess deaths were ischaemic heart diseases - which would track with the professor's warnings of a fatter population.
Similarly, when looking at the leading cause of death across much of 2022, it's dementia and Alzheimers - further supporting theories of an increasingly greying, and dying, population.
Dementia and Alzheimers often aren't the leading cause of excess deaths, when that data is available, according to ONS figures, it's often pneumonia and influenza during the winter or symptoms, signs and ill-defined conditions in other parts of the year.

-
A federal judge said Wednesday that federal prohibitions on licensed dealers selling handguns to 18- to 20-year-olds are unconstitutional, in what is the latest legal volley over age-based firearm regulations - a court fight that has escalated since the Supreme Court's major Second Amendment ruling last year.
US District Judge Robert Payne of the Eastern District of Virginia said that under the test laid out in the Supreme Court's recent ruling, the federal regulation runs afoul of the Second Amendment.
"Because the statutes and regulations in question are not consistent with our Nation's history and tradition, they, therefore, cannot stand," he wrote, referencing the Supreme Court ruling's instruction that lower courts look to the gun regulations that were in effect during the Constitution's framing to decide whether a current gun law violates the Second Amendment.
The Justice Department declined to comment. But its attorneys have the option to ask that Payne's ruling be paused for it to be appealed. There are also procedural questions about the case that must be settled before Payne issues a mandate that puts the ruling into effect.
In his opinion, Payne concluded that 18-to 21-year-olds were part of the American political community - citing the age group's ability to vote and enlist in the military - and thus the age group fell under the Second Amendment's protections.
"If the Court were to exclude 18-to-21-year-olds from the Second Amendment's protection, it would impose limitations on the Second Amendment that do not exist from other constitutional guarantees," Payne, a George H. W. Bush-appointee, wrote.
He then turned to the second part of the Supreme Court's test, where the high court said that a regulation could only be upheld if analogous regulations existed at the time of the framing.
"The Government has not presented any evidence of age-based restrictions on the purchase or sale of firearms from the colonial era, Founding, or Early Republic," Payne said.
He later concluded that the "lack of analogous regulations permits a finding that the Founders considered age-based regulations on the purchase of firearms to circumscribe the right to keep and bear arms confirmed by the Second Amendment."
Even before the 2022 Supreme Court's ruling, known as New York State Rifle & Pistol Association, Inc. v. Bruen, the constitutionality of gun restrictions for older teenagers was a flashpoint of firearm litigation and federal courts have taken different approaches to the question. Those in favor of gun safety laws have pointed to the prevalence of mass shootings perpetrated by shooters in their late teens, while opponents of gun restrictions for 18-to-20-year-olds have argued that teenage participation in militias at the timing of the founding puts the constitutionality of such laws in questions.
Last year's Bruen opinion - authored by Justice Clarence Thomas and joined by the high court's other GOP-appointees - put these legal battles on overdrive. The new opinion from Payne hints at what could be a major dispute that the Supreme Court must ultimately resolve.
In March, the 11th US Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a Florida law - passed after the massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School - that raised the minimum age to purchase a gun from 18 to 21. (Federal trial courts in Virginia sit under the 4th US Circuit Court of Appeals, and as such are not bound by 11th Circuit precedents.) In concluding the Florida ban was constitutional, the 11th Circuit opinion pointed to similar restrictions that were in place in the mid-1800s, around the time of the ratification of the 14th Amendment, which extended the Second Amendment's protections to states.
Payne acknowledged Wednesday he was taking a different approach than that of the 11th Circuit. He noted because his case concerned a federal restriction rather than a state law, he was looking at the gun regulations in place at the country's founding, in the late 18th century, when the Second Amendment was adopted. Whether the 11th Circuit had a "sound" rationale in relying instead on Reconstruction-era regulations "will be tested on appeal," Payne said in a footnote. 1/2

Health authorities are again urging residents to remain vigilant of their surroundings, following the second death of a child this year related to the disease amid rising case numbers.
A child has become the second person to die this year after contracting mosquito-borne disease Murray Valley encephalitis.
The Northern Territory Health Department confirmed the death on Thursday, revealing the infant from the Big Rivers Region died in early May.
This is the second child to lose their life to the rare disease in just over two months, following the death of a Western Australia youngster in April.
It is the third death in the country, after a woman from Victoria died when she contracted MVE in either the Buloke Shire or Swan Hill.
The child's death means there have been four case of the disease reported in the NT, two from Big Rivers in young infants, one in the Barkly region and the other in the Top End.
In the past two decades there have been six deaths confirmed to authorities from MVE, as cases doubled compared to the previous five years.
A veterinary lab has conducted mosquito testing in the territory and confirmed the virus was present in mosquitoes in the Top End, Central Australia and Barkly regions.
MVE is uncommon but it can be fatal when bitten by a mosquito carrying the virus.
It is especially dangerous in children and the elderly.
Some of the symptoms include headaches, high fever, tremors, seizures, and in worst cases can lead to a coma or permanent brain damage or death.

Health authorities have issued a public health alert warning residents to be extra vigilant following heavy rain and floods or waterways where mosquitoes can breed.
The insects are most active during the night and early in the morning, with the high risk months between February and end of June.
Those in regional communities, visiting parks and recreational areas have also been told to remain cautious.
MVE is not the only virus circulating, the Japanese encephalitis is another potential fatal disease if a person is bitten.

"That's not true, Mr. President, and you know that."-CNN Donald Trump town hall moderator Kaitlan Collins.
"You are a nasty person."-Trump to Collins, later.
It was worse than my worst nightmares.
CNN made a terrible, ratings-driven decision to host a New Hampshire town hall with disgraced former president Donald Trump Wednesday night-one day, as it happened, after he was found liable for sexual abuse and defamation. Even worse: choosing to do it in front of an audience of New Hampshire Republicans.
I have to assume that was a Trump condition for doing the event. If it wasn't, everyone connected with that decision should be fired. But almost certainly won't be.
Trump got a standing f'ing ovation when he came out, as well as at the end of the nightmarish political stunt. The town hall's moderator, CNN's 31-year-old rising star Kaitlan Collins, tried repeatedly to push back on Trump's many, many lies, but he talked over and mocked her for all 60-something minutes. The Trump-besotted crowd regularly served as a laugh track for Trump's lies and his insults. It was nauseating.
Collins was best on Trump's voter fraud lies.

US launches new 'ministry of truth'
The Office of the Director of National Intelligence has set up a body to counter foreign 'disinformation'
US launches new 'ministry of truth'
FILE PHOTO ? getty Images / Igor Stevanovic
The US has established a Foreign Malign Influence Center to address foreign threats to elections as well as the "public opinion" within the country, Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines revealed in a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing on Thursday.
Operating under the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the FMIC has access to "all intelligence possessed or created pertaining to foreign malign information, including election security." Its director, Jeffrey Wichman, was formerly chief of analysis for the CIA's Counterintelligence Mission Center.
For the agency's purposes, 'foreign' means originating in Russia, Iran, China, North Korea, or "any other foreign country that the Director of the Center" deems appropriate, while 'foreign malign influence' is defined as "any hostile effort undertaken by, or at the direction of, or on behalf of or with the substantial support of," one of the named countries in order to influence, covertly or overtly, US government or state policy or the "public opinion within the United States."

While the FMIC was apparently founded in September at the behest of recent legislation, Thursday's hearing was the first public mention of its existence. Its establishment was controversial, as some senators and intelligence officers questioned the need for another agency with the same remit as the Global Engagement Center, the State Department subsidiary tasked with disseminating American propaganda to fight the foreign variety.
Haines addressed some of those concerns in Thursday's hearing, insisting the FMIC was working to "support the Global Engagement Center and others throughout the US government in helping them to understand what are the plans and intentions of the key actors in this space: China, Russia, Iran, etc."
Countering 'foreign disinformation' has become something of an obsession for government bureaucrats since the 2016 election of Donald Trump, with half a dozen agencies springing up since then. In addition to the GEC, launched in 2017, the Pentagon quietly launched an Influence and Perception Management Office last year, joining the Department of Homeland Security's Foreign Influence and Interference Branch, Countering Foreign Influence Task Force, and the ill-fated Disinformation Governance Board, as well as the FBI's Foreign Influence Task Force.
However, Pentagon contractor RAND Corporation recently acknowledged Russia's role is probably overstated. The think tank warned in a study conducted last year that blaming Moscow for all information Washington doesn't like is likely to backfire, urging the Defense Department to reduce "overattribution of disinformation on social media to Russia."
"Pointing the finger at Russia in every instance of activity on social media resembling Russian interference distorts the understanding of the threat," the report stated.

Obama misstated the charge to which Flynn had previously pleaded guilty. He was charged with false statements to the FBI, not perjury. But the Justice Department, in a filing with a federal judge on Thursday, asked that the case brought by special counsel Robert Mueller be dismissed, arguing that FBI agents did not have a justifiable reason to question the then national security adviser about his conversations with Russian Ambassador Sergei Kislyak - talks FBI agents and Mueller's prosecutors concluded he had lied about.
Still, Obama's unvarnished remarks were some of his sharpest yet about the Trump administration and appeared to forecast a dramatically stepped-up political role he intends to play in this year's election. The comments came during a lengthy chat in which he also sharply criticized the response to the coronavirus pandemic, blaming it on the "tribal" trends that have been stoked by the president and his allies.

"This election that's coming up on every level is so important because what we're going to be battling is not just a particular individual or a political party. What we're fighting against is these long-term trends in which being selfish, being tribal, being divided, and seeing others as an enemy - that has become a stronger impulse in American life. And by the way, we're seeing that internationally as well. It's part of the reason why the response to this global crisis has been so anemic and spotty. It would have been bad even with the best of governments. It has been an absolute chaotic disaster when that mindset - of 'what's in it for me' and 'to heck with everybody else' - when that mindset is operationalized in our government.
"That's why, I, by the way, am going to be spending as much time as necessary and campaigning as hard as I can for Joe Biden," he added.
Obama's remarks about Flynn seemed especially pointed in light of the fact that the former Army general had served in his administration as director of the Defense Intelligence Agency - until he was forced out by administration officials who viewed him as a chaotic, insubordinate manager. During the transition, Obama even warned Trump not to hire Flynn - advice that Trump ignored.
Obama also gave some insights into his life during the pandemic. The lack of sports, he said, is "driving me nuts." But there was a bright side, he added. His daughters, Malia and Sasha, "are stuck having dinner with me" at home.

Did Russian Kinzhal Missile Take Out 'NATO Command Center' in Ukraine?
By Yevgeny Kuklychev On 3/31/23 at 9:36 AM EDT
A Russian precision strike supposedly destroyed an underground "NATO command center" in Ukraine earlier this month, with "dozens" of Western officers and military personnel purportedly killed in the "Kinzhal" (or "Dagger) missile attack.
At least, that is the claim circulating on some social media channels, including those known for spreading pro-Kremlin talking points and Russian propaganda.
In some cases the claim was supported by a photo of the supposed strike site, showing large-scale devastation and a burned-down building.

Social media posts spread baseless claims purporting a "shadow NATO command center" in Ukraine was destroyed in the strikes. Laurent Van der Stockt for Le Monde/YURI KADOBNOV/AFP getty Images
But is there any factual basis to the claim? Newsweek Misinformation Watch pulled at the threads-and found that most of the elements and sources contained in the claim do not stand up to scrutiny.
Several Twitter and Telegram posts, totaling hundreds of thousands of views in late March 2023, purported that a NATO HQ in Ukraine was destroyed, with "up to 300 people" killed in the strike.
"A terrifying strike of the Russian supersonic missile 'Dagger' at a depth of 130 meters on the NATO command center in Ukraine!": Greek Pronews writes about the huge losses among NATO officers as a result of the missile attack," one post read.
"40 corpses, dozens more bodies remain under the rubble - details of the Russian "retaliation strike" on the NATO command center have appeared," wrote the account named "Russian Victory is Inevitable."
"Greek media: dozens of NATO officers are buried in a secret bunker destroyed by "Daggers" in Ukraine. According to the Greek portal Pronews, received by the editors from "American sources," another post said.
Most of the posts on Twitter and Telegram appeared to base the claim on one of two sources: An obscure Greek news website ProNews and an outlet called "The Intel Drop." The trustworthiness of both sources is highly questionable, however.
TheIntelDrop describes itself as "an unaligned news source for the intelligence and financial community," but the awkward wording, basic grammar mistakes ("oversite") and strange terminology, such as "black propaganda", raise suspicions, indicating that it likely was not written by a native English speaker.

REPORT: Climate Change Extremists Vandalizing Fine Art Are Being Funded in Part by Leftists in Hollywood
Hollywood and left-wing foundations behind climate charity quietly bankrolling extremist protest groups
A little-known climate change advocacy organization heavily funded by celebrities and influential left-leaning foundations has been quietly dishing out grants to various activist groups deploying unorthodox and extremist methods across the world to protest fossil fuels, documents reveal.
Anti-fossil fuels groups have been ramping up protests in the United States and overseas as part of a coordinated campaign to bring awareness to climate change by vandalizing fine art, blocking major roads, and even gluing themselves to sports cars. Many of these activist hubs are being bankrolled by Climate Emergency Fund, a Beverly Hills-based charity linked to Hollywood celebrities and top liberal nonprofit organizations aiming to shape the Democratic Party's agenda, according to tax forms and other documents reviewed by the Washington Examiner.
"Climate Emergency Fund has quickly become the ATM that radical environmental activists turn to fund their latest disruptions," Caitlin Sutherland, executive director of the conservative watchdog Americans for Public Trust, told the Washington Examiner. "And as their destruction increases, so should the scrutiny on who is bankrolling the Climate Emergency Fund and their ties to more mainstream environmental groups that might disagree with these over-the-top and dangerous tactics."...
And, unlike the typical run-of-the-mill charity, CEF boasts a star-studded cohort of financial backers and board members, including Rory Kennedy, daughter of the late senator Robert F. Kennedy, Aileen getty, the billionaire philanthropist and heiress of the getty family fortune earned in the petroleum industry, and even Hollywood's Adam McKay, who pledged it $4 million in September 2022 and directed the 2021 climate allegory film Don't Look Up.
CEF celebrity funders also include Jeremy Strong, who plays Kendall Roy in the HBO TV series Succession, comedian Chelsea Handler, actor and Silicon Valley star Thomas Middleditch, and Abigail Disney, daughter of ex-Disney executive Roy E. Disney, according to CEF's annual 2022 report.

In 1908, architect Ernest Flagg completed the Singer Building in Lower Manhattan, a Beaux-Arts showstopper made for the Singer sewing machine company. From a wide base, a slender 27-story tower rose, topped by a mansard roof and a delicate lantern spire.
Every inch dripped with sumptuous detail inside and out; vaulted roofs, marble columns with bronze trim, window mullions with spiral fluting. The lobby was said to have a "celestial radiance." A book was written just about its construction. For a year, it was the tallest building in the world at 612 feet, and a celebrated landmark for decades after that.
But not for too much longer. Despite its great height, the pencil-thin tower lacked office space. In the 1960s the company sold its ornate headquarters; demolition proceeded in 1967. It's the tallest building to ever be peacefully demolished.

By any account, it's a fantastical tale: Once the tallest building in the world and a New York icon, knocked down in just a handful of decades.
For some, it's too fantastical to believe ... or perhaps not fantastical enough. A dedicated group of YouTubers and Reddit posters see the Singer Building and countless other discarded pre-modern beauties and extant Beaux-Arts landmarks as artifacts of a globe-spanning civilization called the Tartarian Empire, which was somehow erased from the history books. Adherents of this theory believe these buildings to be the keys to a hidden past, clandestinely obscured by malevolent actors.
Who? Why? To what possible end? As in many other, more high-profile conspiracy theories, this baroque fantasy doesn't offer much in the way of practical considerations, logic or evidence. But it's grounded in some real anxieties, pointing toward the changes wrought by the modern world in general and modern architecture specifically - and rejecting both...

'Disgraceful': GOP Senators Accuse Dems of Threatening to Yank Supreme Court Justices' Security Funding

Sens. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and Josh Hawley, R-Mo., condemned Democrats for threatening to yank security funding from Supreme Court justices.

(Photo: Chip Somodevilla/getty Images)
Republicans are denouncing Democratic senators' attempt to leverage the Supreme Court budget in exchange for an enforceable ethics code.
During a Senate Judiciary hearing on Supreme Court ethics reform, Sens. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and Josh Hawley, R-Mo., tore into their Democratic colleagues for "threatening to cut off the funding for the security at the Supreme Court," as Cruz said.
"The Left is willing to threaten the lives of the justices," said the Texas senator. "This is disgraceful."
Hawley similarly accused Democrats of threatening the justices.
"The threat is, 'We will deny you security, unless you do what we want. We will deny you security unless you do what we want,'" he said. "We had an assassin come to the home of Justice [Brett] Kavanaugh and try to murder him.We have had credible threats on the lives of other justices. And now members of this body say 'We will deny you security for you, your families, your children, unless you do what we want.'"
"Extraordinary," Hawley said, shaking his head.
The Supreme Court had just asked Congress to increase funding to help protect the justices: $5,897,000 for the "expansion of protective activities" and a separate increase of $585,000 for new IT security positions in "cybersecurity, software development, and network engineering."
"This request would expand security activities conducted by Supreme Court Police to protect the Justices," the protective activities request says, before specifically citing the presence of threats to the justices.
"On-going threat assessments show evolving risks that require continuous protection," the request continues. "Additional funding would provide for contract positions, eventually transitioning to full-time employees, that will augment capabilities of the Supreme Court police force and allow it to accomplish its protective mission."
Fifteen members of the Democratic Caucus have proposed language to be attached to next year's Supreme Court funding bill requiring the court to adopt new processes for recusals and ethics allegations-essentially making the court answerable to Congress.
"The Supreme Court should have a code of ethics to govern the conduct of its members, and its refusal to adopt such standards has contributed to eroding public confidence in the highest court in the land," Sen. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., told the Washington Post. "It is unacceptable that the Supreme Court has exempted itself from the accountability that applies to all other members of our federal courts, and I believe Congress should act to remedy this problem."

Training missions at the military base in Jordan had become so routine that the American Special Forces soldiers there wore baseball caps instead of helmets. Most of them had been in a war zone, and Jordan felt far from one.
But as their convoy crept toward an entry gate on a sweltering Friday in November, gunshots erupted from a guard post, inciting a shootout that killed three Americans, drove a wedge between crucial allies and ended with a 39-year-old Jordanian soldier sentenced to life in prison for murder.
"We kept yelling in English and Arabic, saying we were friends. And he kept shooting," said the lone American soldier to survive the attack, speaking publicly for the first time about that day. "Eventually, we realized it wasn't an accident."

Video Captures Ambush of U.S. Soldiers
Video
The episode has sent a chill through the normally warm relations between the United States and Jordan, one of its closest Arab allies, and spurred protests in Jordan by members of the gunman's influential tribe, who believe he is being punished to placate a powerful ally.

It has also baffled investigators, who have been unable to determine a motive.
Jordanian officials at first portrayed the episode as an accident and blamed the Americans, saying that they had broken the protocol for approaching the base, and later saying that they had accidentally fired a weapon, leading the Jordanian guard to believe he was under attack.
But surveillance video released by the Jordanian military on Monday and an interview with the 30-year-old American staff sergeant who survived the shootout shows a far more troubling scene: a five-minute clash during which the Americans fired back, crouched behind barriers and waved their hands desperately to stop the shooting, before the Jordanian charged with an assault rifle to try to finish them off.
The gunman, First Sgt. Ma'arik al-Tawayha, a member of the Jordanian Air Force, was wounded in the fight and sentenced last week by a Jordanian military court to life in prison for the killings of Staff Sgt. Matthew C. Lewellen, 27, of Kirksville, Mo.; Staff Sgt. Kevin J. McEnroe, 30, of Tucson; and Staff Sgt. James F. Moriarty, 27, of Kerrville, Tex.

The soldier who survived reviewed the video with a reporter from The New York Times on Monday evening, helping to piece together what took place that day.
"We were just terrified and confused," he said. "We didn't know what was happening, or why, or how many guys were going to come after us."
The video first shows a stark desert road leading to a gate to the King Faisal Air Base in the southern Jordanian town of Al Jafr, where the American soldiers were training Syrian rebels as part of a covert program run by the Central Intelligence Agency.
Four trucks are returning from morning mortar training and slowly approach the gate as a Jordanian soldier removes two roadblocks.

How the Hitler Youth Turned a Generation of Kids Into Nazis
Hitler's war against Boy Scouts fueled the Third Reich's ideology-and its military might.
By: Erin Blakemore
Updated: August 29, 2018 | Original: December 11, 2017
The Boy Scouts' motto was "Be Prepared." But nothing could prepare Max Ebel, a German teenager, for what happened after Hitler banned the Boy Scouts. As other boys cheered, the 17-year-old was surrounded by a gang of Nazi Youth-one of whom had a knife. Ebel's refusal to leave scouting behind had just turned into a fight for his life.
It was 1937, and the Boy Scouts were one of many youth organizations on the Nazis' verboten list. Now, every non-Jewish boy in Germany was required to be part of the Hitler Youth, the Nazis' youth arm, instead. Ebel, a pacifist who distrusted the Nazis, refused-and paid the price.
The Boy Scout was harassed and then attacked by a group of Nazi Youth. In an attempt to force him to join, one of the members stabbed him in the hand. Ebel fought back, grabbed the knife, and cut the other boy's face. Later, realizing his life was in danger, he escaped Germany and eventually became a U.S. citizen.
Ebel was just one of millions of young Germans whose lives were changed by the Hitler Youth-a group designed to indoctrinate kids into Hitler's ideology, then send them off to war.

A group of boys leaving camp for a hike at a Hitler Youth summer camp in Berlin, 1933.
By the time Adolf Hitler came to power in 1933, hundreds of thousands of kids were members of youth organizations like the Boy Scouts, which was invented in England in 1909 and quickly spread to Germany. But there was also another powerful youth movement afoot-one invented by the Nazis. Since 1922, the National Socialists had had a youth arm designed to train and recruit members for its paramilitary. As the Nazis became more powerful, their youth arm grew.
In January 1933, there were 50,000 members of the Hitler Youth. By the end of the year, there were more than 2 million. And as the 1930s progressed, the Nazis waged war on the groups so popular among German youth. First they banned children's groups associated with political movements like Communism. And in 1936, they banned all youth groups-including the Boy Scouts-and forced members to become part of the Hitler Youth instead. Jewish children were banned from participation.

Australian cyber expert grilled by Sky News Australia's Laura Jayes over favourable report paid for by TikTok
A cyber security expert has been grilled by Sky News Australia host Laura Jayes over the credibility of his TikTok-commissioned report into the social media company's data collection regime.
An Australian cyber security expert has refused to reveal how much TikTok paid him to publish a report downplaying the risks of using the controversial social media platform.
In a fiery interview with Sky News host Laura Jayes, Monash University Cyber-Security Professor Nigel Phair declined to reveal how much he was paid to prepare the report, arguing the details were "commercial in-confidence".
Mr Phair has argued TikTok is not any greater a security threat than other major tech platforms such as Google and Facebook.
"All the applications collect a similar amount of data - we've got to remember they're commercial entities who collect data for commercial purposes to provide you ... with the best user experience," he said.
"So when we look at things like should we give access to the app of our camera - all the power in that regard I believe is really with the user, whether you want to actually allow that to happen or not."
TikTok is owned by Chinese company ByteDance which has recently sought to downplay links to the communist government in Beijing. Picture: getty Images
However, Mr Phair appeared stumped when Jayes asked him a series of tough questions about who commissioned the report.
Jayes said the review was "hard to believe" given TikTok set the parameters of Mr Phair's study.
She then pressed him on whether it was possible for the report not to be "complimentary" as the Chinese-owned tech giant had paid him and given him guidance.
"Why would they pay for a report that actually criticises them even further," she said.
But Mr Phair denied any suggestion TikTok had advised him what not to include as part of his investigation.
"They gave me guidance saying we want you to look technically at policy, they didn't say what you can and you can't do they said we want you to focus on these things so that's what I focused on."
Mr Phair's report predominantly centred on TikTok's privacy policies in comparison to Facebook, Google and large corporations such as Australia's big four banks.
His report claims TikTok collects a similar amount of data as its competitors.
But he was then grilled on whether his findings were skewed as they made no mention of China's security laws which require all state organisations to "support, assist, and cooperate" with Chinese intelligence agencies.
"Do you not think that increases the risk of how data on TikTok would be used compared to Facebook and Google?" Jayes asked.

Q Research General #23017: #HappyBirthday Mrs. Trump Edition
>>18757338
On Wednesday, AFT President Randi Weingarten has a lot to answer for when she testifies before the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic.
Because of a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request submitted by Americans for Public Trust, we revealed that in February 2021 Weingarten and her union were not only given an advanced copy of the long-awaited school reopening guidance but were also allowed to make line-by-line edits.

Weingarten will likely try to dodge these facts during her testimony. The fact that she hired a defense attorney has raised eyebrows and suggests she is geared up to evade these credible arguments, but the AFT's email correspondence made public through our FOIA tells the real story.
The truth is that Weingarten's AFT dictated CDC policy. Back and forth emails between the AFT and the CDC show the union had a highly inappropriate level of coziness. AFT thanked the supposedly science-based agency "so much for [their] responsiveness to the suggestions made by Randi [Weingarten]," and were a self-described "thought partner" in the shaping of the guidance.
Suggestions offered by Weingarten's union were adopted nearly verbatim into the final text of the CDC document. Email correspondence further verifies that CDC Director Rochelle Walensky said the AFT's suggestions were being worked into the school guidance "with just a few small tweaks."
Parents were granted just one 30-minute session with Dr. Walensky, while teachers' unions had constant and unfettered access, with Weingarten and Walensky even speaking on the phone just days before the guidance was finalized. We may never know what was said on that call, or how much additional pressure was put on the CDC by the AFT, but Weingarten should certainly be asked by committee members the extent to which she successfully influenced policy.
While parents should still be infuriated with the level of access unions were granted, sadly none of this should come as a shock. Teachers unions spent over $40 million to help elect President Biden and liberal candidates in 2020. Well, they got their money's worth. In a triumph of politics over science, they strongarmed the CDC directly, and American children were needlessly forced to suffer the lasting consequences of remote education.
There is no doubt that an entire generation of students were harmed by the AFT's crusade against in-person learning. Students lost 35 percent of a standard school year's worth of learning when they stopped in-person attendance during the pandemic. Even worse, school closures had a detrimental effect on children from the poorest 20 percent of neighborhoods in America and exacerbated education inequality across the nation.
These closures also contributed to "multiple physical and mental health issues and even crises among students at all levels," and the National Assessment of Educational Progress just found that student test scores declined to their lowest point in two decades following the pandemic. There's no telling how long it could take students to catch up.
But today, Weingarten must finally answer for her role in playing politics with children's education.

Radio Silent: Tesla, Ford And More EVs Phase Out AM Radio
Brad AdgateApr 14, 2023,
Average Price Of Electric Vehicles Rises, As Supply Costs Continue To Increase
Some electronic vehicles no longer come with AM [+]
getty Images
Several prominent carmakers have decided for some of their models to drop AM radio from the dashboard. Most of the car models are electric vehicles (EVs). Automobile companies have noted electromagnetic interference with AM radio's reception created by electric motors.
New EVs manufactured by BMW, Porsche, Audi, Volvo, Ford F-150 Lightning truck, Volkswagen SUV and Tesla Model S have dropped AM radio. Ford announced in March plans to phase out AM radio in most of its new and updated car models, even those with internal combustion engines. Ford will keep AM radio in the Mustang Mach-E. Hyundai, which makes electric vehicles, said in a statement that it had no plans to phase out AM radio.
Today, broadcast radio continues to be the most popular source of in-car entertainment. Furthermore, over 40% of all radio listening is done in cars more than either at work or in the home.
The Backlash
With such a rich background, its wider reach and still listened by tens of millions, the elimination of AM radio has created a backlash from members of Congress, the National Association of Broadcasters (NAB), FEMA, AM station owners, political pundits, farmers and listeners.
Senator Ed Markey (D-MA), a member of the Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee, has been a vocal proponent about keeping AM radio in car dashboards for among other reasons: national security and public safety. Markey says, "Despite innovations such as the smartphone and social media, AM/FM broadcast radio remains the most dependable, cost-free, and accessible communication mechanism for public officials to communicate with the public during times of emergency. As a result, any phaseout of broadcast AM radio could pose a significant communication problem during emergencies."
The Wall Street Journal reports, seven former FEMA heads sent a letter to Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg writing in part. "Because of the great distances that its signals carry, and due to its resiliency during even the worst natural disasters, the success of the national public warning system - the only method the government has to reach every point of the country at once - hinges on its use of AM radio. However, should EV makers continue removing AM radios from their vehicles, this vital public safety system will no longer function as intended."
In early April, the NAB launched "Depend on AM Radio" campaign highlighting the significance of in-car AM radio providing local news (including traffic reports), community engagement, entertainment and any important public safety info. The NAB has launched a website and has urged radio stations to remind their listeners on the importance of AM radio via Public Service Announcements (PSAs) and other communication means. Also, ten state broadcasting associations recently created a Dashboard Subcommittee as part of National Alliance of State Broadcasters Associations (NASBA). The goal is to slow or stop the removal of AM radio from the dashboard.
Trade publication Inside Radio, which has written several articles on the topic, reports the National Association of Farm Broadcasting is another group urging automobile makers to keep AM radio in cars. For decades, farmers in rural areas have relied on small AM radio stations for agribusiness information including weather forecasts and commodity prices. An NAFB survey says radio listenership increases during the spring and summer with 75% of farmers listening for five or more days each week. Also, rural areas continue to be more dependent on AM radio since access to wi-fi and broadband is not as widespread.
In response, carmakers have been noted with consumers migrating away from newson radio/TV and government emergency systems should move to other technologies. They also cited FEMA provides recurring emergency alerts via text messages, the Emergency Alert System on radio and television stations, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's weather radio. Additionally they contend, in-car AM radio can be listened to on FM translators, audio streaming and via side channels of HD Radio. AM station owners counter FM translators lack the reach and the internet may not be a dependable source during emergencies...

JTA - New England Patriots football team owner Robert Kraft is taking eight current and seven former players with him to Israel.
Kraft, the billionaire philanthropist and CEO of the Kraft Group, is visiting the Jewish state to receive the Genesis Prize.
The group of former players includes stars such as Drew Bledsoe, Ty Law and Vince Wilfork. The group of current players includes longtime kicker Stephen Gostowski and Nate Ebner, a Jewish special teams player - and one of two Jews on the team (the other, wide receiver Julian Edelman, is not taking part).

"I hope it's going to turn out to be one of the greatest weeks in your life. This is over a hundred times I've gone and the first time I went, on my honeymoon with my sweetheart, it just changed my life," Kraft said to the players, according to SB Nation.
"This represents the entire history of our family's involvement [with the Patriots] and we're really excited."
Kraft is currently on trial for soliciting a prostitute, but the prize foundation chairman Stan Polovets has voiced support for him. Kraft will receive the award in Jerusalem on Thursday.

A radical plan for Trump's second term

Former President Trump's top allies are preparing to radically reshape the federal government if he is re-elected, purging potentially thousands of civil servants and filling career posts with loyalists to him and his "America First" ideology, people involved in the discussions tell Axios.
The impact could go well beyond typical conservative targets such as the Environmental Protection Agency and the Internal Revenue Service. Trump allies are working on plans that would potentially strip layers at the Justice Department - including the FBI, and reaching into national security, intelligence, the State Department and the Pentagon, sources close to the former president say.
During his presidency, Trump often complained about what he called "the deep state."
The heart of the plan is derived from an executive order known as "Schedule F," developed and refined in secret over most of the second half of Trump's term and launched 13 days before the 2020 election.
The reporting for this series draws on extensive interviews over a period of more than three months with more than two dozen people close to the former president, and others who have firsthand knowledge of the work underway to prepare for a potential second term. Most spoke on condition of anonymity to describe sensitive planning and avoid Trump's ire.
red line separator
As Trump publicly flirts with a 2024 comeback campaign, this planning is quietly flourishing from Mar-a-Lago to Washington - with his blessing but without the knowledge of some people in his orbit.
Trump remains distracted by his obsession with contesting the 2020 election results. But he has endorsed the work of several groups to prime an administration-in-waiting. Personnel and action plans would be executed in the first 100 days of a second term starting on Jan. 20, 2025.
Their work could accelerate controversial policy and enforcement changes, but also enable revenge tours against real or perceived enemies, and potentially insulate the president and allies from investigation or prosecution.
They intend to stack thousands of mid-level staff jobs. Well-funded groups are already developing lists of candidates selected often for their animus against the system - in line with Trump's long-running obsession with draining "the swamp." This includes building extensive databases of people vetted as being committed to Trump and his agenda.
The preparations are far more advanced and ambitious than previously reported. What is happening now is an inversion of the slapdash and virtually non-existent infrastructure surrounding Trump ahead of his 2017 presidential transition.
These groups are operating on multiple fronts: shaping policies, identifying top lieutenants, curating an alternative labor force of unprecedented scale, and preparing for legal challenges and defenses that might go before Trump-friendly judges, all the way to a 6-3 Supreme Court.
The centerpiece
Trump signed an executive order, "Creating Schedule F in the Excepted Service," in October 2020, which established a new employment category for federal employees. It received wide media coverage for a short period, then was largely forgotten in the mayhem and aftermath of Jan. 6 - and quickly was rescinded by President Biden.
Sources close to Trump say that if he were elected to a second term, he would immediately reimpose it.
Tens of thousands of civil servants who serve in roles deemed to have some influence over policy would be reassigned as "Schedule F" employees. Upon reassignment, they would lose their employment protections.
New presidents typically get to replace more than 4,000 so-called "political" appointees to oversee the running of their administrations. But below this rotating layer of political appointees sits a mass of government workers who enjoy strong employment protections - and typically continue their service from one administration to the next, regardless of the president's party affiliation.
An initial estimate by the Trump official who came up with Schedule F found it could apply to as many as 50,000 federal workers - a fraction of a workforce of more than 2 million, but a segment with a profound role in shaping American life.

Texas man charged in Jan 6 riot shoots at local police as FBI moved to have him surrender
Court papers state Pelham was dressed in goggles, a neck gaiter and a baseball hat bearing the logo of the Proud Boys, a far-right group.

A Texas man facing federal charges in connection to the Jan. 6 Capitol riot has been arrested for shooting at local law enforcement the day he was supposed to surrender to the F.B.I, federal prosecutors said Thursday.
The shooting occurred Tuesday when Nathan Donald Pelham, 40, opened fire on police in North Texas who went to check on him following a report he had a gun, according to the Dallas Morning News.
Last week, Pelham was charged in a federal District Court in Washington., D.C., with four misdemeanors in connection with illegally entering the Capitol on Jan. 6 2021. He was in the building for approximately seven minutes.
Court papers state Pelham was dressed in goggles, a neck gaiter and a baseball hat bearing the logo of the Proud Boys, a far-right group.Two months later, he confessed to being inside the Capitol, while being stopped at the U.S. border in Port Huron, Michigan, trying to enter Canada. The FBI intended to investigate Pelham on Monday. But that same evening one of his relatives called the sheriff's office in Hunt County, Texas, to alert deputies that Pelham had flashed a gun. When the deputies checked on Pelham at around 8:30 p.m., his daughter ran out of the house and seconds later, gunfire rang from inside, prosecutors said.An hour later, Pelham walked onto his porch and shot several rounds at the deputies according to prosecutors. The deputies were not hit. Pelham was arrested, and when authorities searched his house, they found four boxes of ammunition and several bullet holes in walls, prosecutors also said.Pelham was charged on several counts in connection with this week's incident including possessing a firearm. He faces up to five years in prison in addition to any punishment he may receive for entering the Capitol.

Swelling Numbers Of Migrants Overwhelm Southern Border Crossings

NBC News retracted a story Wednesday it had published about the exploitation of migrant minors for work in the U.S. after the featured narrative turned out to be about an adult.
The NBC April 12 report featured the story of a Guatemalan migrant, Pedro, who claimed to be a 16-year-old that was exploited for work at a Kansas slaughterhouse, according to NBC News. Later, the company managing the slaughterhouse sent NBC a video of Pedro saying he wasn't in fact a child and that he was actually 21. (RELATED: Biden Admin 'Didn't Want To Hear' Warnings Of Skyrocketing Migrant Child Labor)
"This article replaces one published by NBC News on April 12, 2023, about a migrant worker at a Kansas slaughterhouse. That article has been withdrawn in light of new information that the migrant is not a minor," NBC's subsequent editor's note read.
NBC followed up with Pedro about his age and he said it's "hard for me to explain." After traveling to Guatemala and obtaining documentation, NBC discovered Pedro was actually 21.
TheGuatemalan migrant initially claimed to be a childto more easily get released into the country after crossing the Southern border illegally, according to NBC News.Pedro spent three months in the care of the Department of Health and Human Services(HHS) in Chicago and laterattended high school in Kansas.
"It's because over there in Guatemala we have a lot of need and we don't have a lot of money and for that reason," Pedro told NBC as to why he lied to U.S. border authorities.
The number of migrant children crossing the U.S.-Mexico border illegally alone has surged in the last two years, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) data. The New York Times recently published a series of reports exposing how child migrants are being turned over by HHS to sponsors that are not family members for labor exploitation.
NBC Universal didn't respond to a request for comment.

Democrat Pushes Legislation to Invite Walt Disney World to Move to North Carolina

North Carolina State Senator Michael Garrett (D-Guilford County) has filed Senate Bill 594, the "Mickey's Freedom Restoration Act," which would invite Disney World to move its entities to the Tar Heel State, according to a reportby WGHP.
This comes after Disney declared war on Florida last year when it caved to a small group of radical-left employees who demanded the company publicly condemn the Sunshine State's anti-grooming legislation, the Parental Rights in Education law.
The Walt Disney Co. promised to fight the anti-grooming legislation, even after it was passed, calling it a "challenge to basic human rights."
In response to this, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) stripped Disney of its self-governing privileges in the Orlando area, a valuable perk the company enjoyed for nearly five decades.
Now, Garrett and other North Carolina Democrats are mulling over ways to get Disney to move to North Carolina, and asking for $750,000 starting in July, WGHP reports.
In a press release,Garrett complainedabout howNorth Carolina lost business after the "bathroom bill" passed, suggesting he would like tosee Florida lose businessover itsanti-grooming legislation.
"North Carolina is a great place to do business," he said. "Politicians who put their state's economy at risk to boost their own selfish political ambitions are a liability."
"In North Carolina, we've learned this lesson the hard way. When HB2, the so-called 'bathroom bill' passed, other states capitalized on our state's disgraceful misstep," Garrett added.
TheState Senator went on to bizarrely refer to Disney, which has declared war on children in Florida, asa company "seeking refuge."
"I welcome The Walt Disney Company and all other businesses seeking refuge from theculture war madnesscurrently gripping the great state of Florida," Garrett said. (This guy needs to be investigated?)
Garrett also mentioned, "We haven't spoke to Disney yet. They were just notified today of the legislation."
(According to this guy money for the state is better than being anti-groomer. How do these people ever get elected? No way on the planet that Disney will move to NC. Political posturing does not make a state a better place.)

History of the Roman Catholic Church
Retrace the Beginnings of One of the Oldest Branches of Christianity
The Vatican
Sylvain Sonnet/getty Images
The Roman Catholic church based in the Vatican and led by the Pope, is the largest of all branches of Christianity, with about 1.3 billion followers worldwide. Roughly one in two Christians are Roman Catholics, and one out of every seven people worldwide. In the United States, about 22 percent of the population identifies Catholicism as their chosen religion.
Roman Catholicism itself maintains that the Roman Catholic Church was established by Christ when he gave direction to the Apostle Peter as the head of the church. This belief is based on Matthew 16:18, when Jesus Christ said to Peter:
"And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it." (NIV).
According to The Moody Handbook of Theology, the official beginning of the Roman Catholic church occurred in 590 CE, with Pope Gregory I. This time marked the consolidated of lands controlled by authority of the pope, and thus the church's power, into what would later be known as "the Papal States."
The Early Christian Church
After the ascension of Jesus Christ, as the apostles began to spread the gospel and make disciples, they provided the beginning structure for the early Christian Church. It is difficult, if not impossible, to separate the initial stages of the Roman Catholic Church from that of the early Christian church.
Simon Peter, one of Jesus' 12 disciples, became an influential leader in the Jewish Christian movement. Later James, most likely Jesus' brother, took over leadership. These followers of Christ viewed themselves as a reform movement within Judaism, yet they continued to follow many of the Jewish laws.
At this time Saul, originally one of the strongest persecutors of the early Jewish Christians, had a blinding vision of Jesus Christ on the road to Damascus and became a Christian. Adopting the name Paul, he became the greatest evangelist of the early Christian church. Paul's ministry, also called Pauline Christianity, was directed mainly to Gentiles. In subtle ways, the early church was already becoming divided.
Another belief system at this time was Gnostic Christianity, which taught that Jesus was a spirit being, sent by God to impart knowledge to humans so that they could escape the miseries of life on earth.
In addition to Gnostic, Jewish, and Pauline Christianity, many other versions of Christianity were starting to be taught. After the fall of Jerusalem in 70 AD, the Jewish Christian movement was scattered. Pauline and Gnostic Christianity were left as the dominant groups.
The Roman Empire legally recognized Pauline Christianity as a valid religion in 313 AD. Later in that century, in 380 AD, Roman Catholicism became the official religion of the Roman Empire. During the following 1000 years, Catholics were the only people recognized as Christians.
In 1054 AD, a formal split occurred between the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches. This division remains in effect today.
The next major division occurred in the 16th century with the Protestant Reformation.
Those who remained faithful to Roman Catholicism believed that the central regulation of doctrine by church leaders was necessary to prevent confusion and division within the church and corruption of its beliefs.
Key Dates and Events in the History of Roman Catholicism
c. 33 to 100 CE: This period is known as the apostolic age, during which the early church was headed up by the 12 apostles of Jesus, who began missionary work to convert Jews to Christianity in various regions of the Mediterranean and Mideast.
c. 60 CE: Apostle Paul returns to Rome after suffering persecution for attempting to convert Jews to Christianity. He is said to have worked with Peter. The reputation of Rome as the center of the Christian church may have begun during this period, although practices were conducted in a hidden manner due to the Roman opposition. Paul dies about 68 CE, probably executed by beheading upon order of emperor Nero. Apostle Peter is also crucified around this time.
200 CE: Under the leadership of Irenaeus, bishop of Lyon, the basic structure of the Catholic church was in place. A system of governance of regional branches under absolute direction from Rome was established. The basic tenants of Catholicism were formalized, involving the absolute rule of faith.
313 CE: Roman emperor Constantine legalized Christianity, and in 330 moved the Roman capital to Constantinople, leaving the Christian church to be the central authority in Rome.

EXCLUSIVE: Texas Coordinates With ATF to Share Income of Residents for Warrantless Monitoring
Firearms in Houston, Texas, on February 18, 2023. (Mark Felix/AFP via getty Images)
By Emily Miller
April 17, 2023Updated: April 18, 2023
Texas secretly gives its citizens' incomes to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). Documents show this has led to at least one person being monitored by the fedswithout a warrantthrough the federal gun background check system. The Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) told The Epoch Times that it has written contracts with ATF for "sharing income information" for criminal investigations. The revelation may lead to oversight by the legislature.
Texas state Rep.Briscoe Cain, a Republican, is "deeply troubled" about this coordination with the state's unemployment agency and federal government.
"My office will be looking into whether the Texas Workforce Commission is assisting the ATF in the Biden Administration's mission to violate the constitutional rights of law-abiding Texans," Cain told The Epoch Times after reviewing the emails obtained by Gun Owners of America (GOA) as part of its ongoing FOIA lawsuit.
This is the third part in an exclusive Epoch Times series on the ATF giving information on innocent suspects to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) for daily monitoring through the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS). The FBI uses NICS as a database of people who are prohibited from possessing or buying guns.
Texan's Income Exposed
In one of the documents, an ATF agent emailed the FBI that a person suspected of straw purchasing or firearms trafficking needed to be put into the gun background check database. The agent wrote that "per TWC," the man's "reported wage earnings with the State of Texas do not appear to supply the financial means to afford the firearms purchased."
The ATF agent requested on Dec. 28, 2020, that the Texan's gun purchases be monitored daily for 90 days. However, as previously reported, the FBI wrote to ATF that its agents could request an extension of the monitoring for as long as they wanted.
Texas's role in the program was uncovered in the ATF's ninth production of documents to GOA as part of a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit. The 42 pages are more heavily redacted than the previous ones given to GOA. There are seven pages of blacked-out information before the source of the income of the person in Texas is shown as TWC.
"One would think that a pro-gun state like Texas would not behanding over gun owners' confidential financial informationto the federal government without a warrant or likely even without probable cause," Rob Olson, an attorney for GOA, told The Epoch Times.
Second Amendment Sanctuary?
A spokeswoman for TWC said in a statement: "Federal and State law provides a path for sharing income information with a federal governmental agency if the federal agency can establish a purpose that is permissible under law and enters into a written agreement which sets forth legal requirements regarding allowable use and protection of the information." She also said a warrant to release salary information is not required by law.
Texas does not have a state income tax. Employers report wages to the TWC in order to determine their unemployment taxes, so its the state's only source for tracking income.
Asked how many times theTWC has given out citizens' incomes, the spokeswoman said it "provides this information to ATF pursuant to two contracts in Dallas and Houston." She said income was shared for any of these purposes: to assist in criminal investigations, to assist in locating defendants, witnesses, and fugitives in criminal cases, and to assist in locating persons with outstanding warrants.
When told about TWC's legal defense, Cain said he will put in a formal request to TWC for copies of thetwo contracts with ATF...

Some sad news from California overnight: Tony Scott, the Hollywood director that gave us Top Gun and the Days of Thunder, among countless other films, died Sunday after jumping from a Los Angeles County bridge.
Police have not officially declared his death a suicide, but all signs point toward that conclusion. The Los Angeles Times reports that police found a suicide note in the 68-year-old's office, although the letter's exact contents have not yet been released.
The Associated Press with the background:
The British-born Scott, who lived in Beverly Hills, was producer and director Ridley Scott's younger brother. Distinct visual styles mark both siblings' films-Ridley Scott mastering the creation of entire worlds with such films as "Gladiator," "Blade Runner," "Alien" and this year's "Prometheus," Tony Scott known for hyper-kinetic action and editing on such films as his most recent, the runaway train thriller "Unstoppable," starring regular collaborator Denzel Washington.
Scott was a thrill-seeker himself in his personal life, an avid rock climber who also liked driving fast cars and motorcycles. Still, filmmaking was his real thrill.

Middle School Announces It Will Fly Transgender Pride Flag Year Round
Hackensack Middle School announced the "Pride Inclusive Flag Raising Ceremony" on Twitter.
The "inclusive" pride flag does not just feature the rainbow, but also includes a triangular emblem with the colors white, blue, and pink, which symbolize transgenderism.
The flag raising ceremony was also celebrated by It Gets Better, a pro-trans non profit that seeks to "empower ... lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer youth around the globe."
The organization wrote an article celebrating the win for leftist gender theory in schools, which read, "The GSA at Hackensack Middle School helped write a resolution with the school district's superintendent to keep the inclusive Pride flag raised year round, not just during Pride Month. The resolution passed with full support from the Board of Education."
The article also contends, "The symbolism of the flag's permanency is clear - our identities are valid and here to stay, no matter what the ignorant wish to say about it."
Meanwhile, one tweet from the school library's media center reads "Last week we celebrated pronoun pride by leading a button making activity with the GSA," in reference to the Gay Straight Alliance, a club at the school. One button reads, "My pronouns are they/them," while another reads "ask me about my pronouns."

As Trump dominates the airwaves, 'it feels like f–king 2016'
Trump's opponents are struggling to find a spotlight of their own in the 2024 campaign.
The Republican presidential primary was always expected to revolve around Trump. But post-indictment, as Republicans rally to his defense - including, crucially, conservative talkers on Fox News - Trump's opponents are confronting an even more damaging dynamic in race: their inability to break through at all. | Alex Wong/getty Images

With the volume blaring on The Donald Trump Show, other Republican presidential hopefuls are struggling to make any noise of their own.
In the span of a week, Nikki Haley, former United Nations ambassador, campaigning at the U.S.-Mexico border, complained that "no one is talking about" immigration because of the focus on Trump's "political drama." Former Secretary of StateMike Pompeo's trip to Ukraine was reduced to a blip on the media landscape, while Ron DeSantis avoided the spectacle and insteadrevived his war with Disney.
On the same day Trump was indicted in an alleged hush money scheme, the Florida governor wasposing with puppies at a pet adoption eventas his aides instructed reporters to leave.
"This is deja vu all over again," said Terry Sullivan, who ran Marco Rubio's 2016 campaign for president. "Trump dominates media coverage, making it impossible for his competitors to get any coverage or forward traction."
The Republican presidential primary was always expected to revolve around Trump. But post-indictment, as Republicans rally to his defense - including, crucially, conservative talkers on Fox News - Trump's opponents are confronting an even more damaging dynamic in race:Their inability to break through at all.
"It feels like fucking 2016," said a Republican strategist who supports DeSantis and was granted anonymity to speak freely about the dynamics of the race. "Is there anything that can suck up asmuch political oxygenin the American political landscape as Trump? I don't think so."
Far from cable TV's focus on Trump's indictment, DeSantis has been plowing ahead with a political operation that resembles the early stages of a presidential campaign. But during the final weeks of Florida's jam-packed legislation session - the backdrop against which DeSantis is preparing his case for taking his local conservative agenda nationwide - the governor hasn't gotten a fraction of the attention Trump has. Visiting Long Island recently to promote his record and his book, he was greeted by a number of New Yorkers in MAGA hats and a sign that read "DeSantis 2028," suggesting he get out of Trump's way in 2024.
One man in the DeSantis-friendly audience repeatedly shouted "Trump!" before being escorted out of the museum where DeSantis spoke. Nearly all of the attendees POLITICO interviewed spoke favorably about DeSantis, but saidthey are already committed to supporting the ex-president's comeback bid.
To Republicans who saw Trump steamroll through the primary in 2016, it's all beginning to look like a rerun. And largely helpless to do anything about Trump on their own, they have been venting frustrations increasingly at the media.
"What's frustrating to me iswe didn't learn a damn thing from 2015 and 2016when it comes to just giving him absolute, roadblock media coverage," said David Kochel, a veteran of six Republican presidential campaigns. "I get it, it's a big story. But this was getting covered like ... the opening of the war in Iraq or the O.J. chase. You couldn't escape it."
He said upcoming debates, cattle calls and other events during the campaign will "give everybody an equal footing, an opportunity" to drive their own coverage. But for now, he said, there isn't much any Trump rival can do.
"I don't know that there's a strategy anybody could employ," he said. "Maybe try shooting somebody on Fifth Avenue."
Left unsaid was that many of the GOP contenders owe their careers to the man they are now wishcasting away. Mike Pence was Trump's vice president, Pompeo served as his CIA director and secretary of state and Haley, who had been governor of South Carolina, was elevated as his United Nations ambassador. Trump often laments DeSantis' disloyalty, saying he was trailing his opponent before Trump endorsed him in 2018.
One GOP Congressional staffer, granted anonymity to describe sensitive discussions about the campaign, said that in the current climate, "everybody" is worried about DeSantis' chances.Meannwhile a PAC formed to bolster his candidacy has reportedly raised $30 million so far….

'Merchant of death' Viktor Bout urges Trump to seek asylum in Russia because his life is in DANGER from government threats and the Stormy Daniels probe
By Geoff Earle, Deputy U.S. Political
updated 23:12 BST 07 Apr 2023
Bout, who is back in Russia thanks to a prisoner swapnegotiated by the Biden administration for U.S. basketball star Brittney Griner, saidhe sent a telegram to Trumpwith the warning following the former president's arrest and arraignment in Manhattan this week.
'First and foremost, I consider thathis life is in dangerand that the legal process which has now begun in New York, won't end in Donald Trump being convicted and barred from the election.
'Most likely he will simply be eliminated there,' he said.
Bout, who served 14 year in prison in the U.S. before his release in the swap, got at least one thing wrong about the U.S. legal system. Trump, even if convicted of filing false business records related to the Stormy Daniels payoff, would not be barred from running for president.
He didn't provide further evidence that Trump would be eliminated.
'You will be welcome in Russia. You will have safe haven,' he wrote, according to the document he shared.
He even adopted some of Trump's own language, referring to an 'evil swamp that had taken over.'
Bout, who was played by actor Nicolas Cage in 'Lord of War,' made the claim on Russian state television, as Newsweek reported, at a time of high tensions with Washington.
Bout made the unusual offer to invite Trump to Russia. Trump was investigated by former Special Counsel Robert Mueller for his and his campaign's Russia ties. Trump continues to inveigh against the probe he calls 'Russia, Russia, Russia,' including after his arrest in New York this week.
Said Bout: 'Therefore, I think it's in thebest interests of all of humanityand primarily all of the American people to invite Donald Trump here, to Russia, to give him security and protection here so that he leads this uprising against the globalists and, most importantly, doesnot allow the elimination of the American people.'
The news came on a day that Wall Street Journal reported Evan Gershkovich was formally charged with espionage in Moscow.
The paper and U.S. officials have said emphatically that the charges are false. It comes amid Russia's fury at the U.S., which has provided billions in military support for Ukraine after Russia invaded its neighbor last year.
National security spokesmanJohn Kirby called it 'inexcusable' that Russia would not allow consular access. He is reportedly being held in a notorious prison where dissidents and others have been held since the Stalin era.

Q Research General #22861: Why is Israel attacking Syria? Edition
satanists love the art, museum, foundation business - for good reason. Art can have any assigned value. An art market can be created overnight in a previously unknown artist like Keith Haring. This makes art/museums antiquities a perfect way to move money around, while, at the same time, promoting inventory or stock-in-trade, art, as a store of long-term value.
A painting is worth what you say it is if you're the getty Museum, the Hammer, the Broad, the Norval, the Huntington or the whatever-cult-tycoon is pretending philanthropy and laughing at us as we reverently troop through their art gallery front operation. There's another good, valid and unholy reason satanic cult con artists like to use art galleries foundations and museum cover structures as operational fronts.
In the case of *art* we've been POWERFULLY conditioned never to seriously question art. Anyone who says "my kid could do that- " is culturally defined as an idiot. Only an ignoramus questions art. We've been taught this in movies and sitcoms, we've been told a hundred ways, a thousand times: only vulgar and uneducated people criticize art. Philistines. Prudes. Hicks. Yokels. Furthermore, we are taught that art is a specialist area, and if we aren't specialists or insiders, we couldn't possibly have anything worthwhile to say and we ought keep our crude thoughts to ourselves and our boorish mouths shut around what we don't understand; because art is sacrosanct; the sacred self-expression of the individual.
Decades of this powerful conditioning allowed Pedosta's fat brother Tony to pose for a multi-page spread in a glitzy DC magazine with his daemonic sculpture of a gilded homosexual torture victim and with pictures of abused children in bizarre ritual locations. ART. The same conditioning protects Marina Abramovic and the crowd of *stars" and *celebrities" photographed eating an *art* corpse soaked in honey at an *art* event. It's ART. The pedovores are rightfully confident in the powers of our conditioning to protect them that they licensed photos of themselves with forks stuck into the honeyed *art* corpse to be published in *art* & fashion magazines, blogs and supermarket tabloids. The honeyed corpse is a gnostic occult ritual. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mellified_man
Why do satanist pedovores parade their pathology in front of us? When we see Tony Pedosta, John "Skippy" Pedosta's brother's sculpture we do not understand consciously what we are seeing is a gold leaf covered model Dahmer's homosexual torture victim. What effect does seeing something we don't consciously understand or necessarily recall having seen have on us?
A lot. This is the "secret" of the effectiveness subliminal and subsonic embed programming. Words and images we don't know that we've seen are perceived by the unconscious component of our minds. We know this because tests using subliminal embeds not consciously seen still raises our blood pressure, increases our pulse rate, and fMRI studies show that these unperceived influences activate portions of the brain associated with memory and emotional trauma. We *do* understand sex and death images unconsciously and traumatic images are retained in memory below the threshold of conscious awareness to influence our future behavior over time. Images of sex and violence in unconscious memory affect us like PTSD caused by real world exposure to rape, torture, child pornography or physical trauma.
Information War or IW operations target the unconscious mind. This "witchcraft" works best when we are *not* aware of images we've been exposed to subliminally or even that we are being targeted at all.
Sculpture of Dahmer's torture victim is presented at galleries and in publicity as fashionable, highly sought after, rare and precious work collected by knowledgeable, prominent people like Tony and John Podesta.
satanist's social subversion/sabotage operations exploit our strongest social conditioning. Art world institutions, galleries and foundations are trumpeted as the highest form of philanthropy and criticizing them is not just foolish it's ungrateful. Art is a satanist controlled industrial market. Since the days of Bernard Berenson art has been used to create and launder money to authenticate forgeries and to smuggle antiquities. Big art shows and exposition are used to emotionally prime us for coming events, to predispose individuals and groups to adopt preferred attitudes, practices or behaviors in a multitude of social dimensions; while, at the same, generating enormous profits, tax breaks and (through school outreach programs) providing access to children.

A grand jury in New York voted to indict former President Donald Trump, three officials familiar with the matter said Thursday.
The case centers on a $130,000 payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels during the closing days of the 2016 presidential campaign. Daniels claimed she slept with the married Trump in 2006, a claim the former president has denied. Trump classified his reimbursement of the payout as legal expenses.

Wagner Group Fighters Make Major Bakhmut Breakthrough-ISW
By Brendan Cole On 3/29/23 at 4:44 AM EDT
Troops from the private military company Wagner have likely seized the industrial complex in the north of Bakhmut as they continue to make gains in the city fiercely fought over for months.
Kremlin-friendly media outlets reported in mid-March that Ukrainian troops were holed up in the corridors of the Vostokmash building in the Artyomovsk Metal Processing Plant (AZOM) zone. Bakhmut's Russian name is Artyomovsk.
Russian military bloggers chronicling the Kremlin's full-scale invasion of Ukraine said on Tuesday that Wagner fighters had captured the complex. The troops were working to clear the area of Ukrainian forces who were left there.

Newsweek Newsletter sign-up >
The Institute for the Study of War (ISW) said these claims chimed with geolocated footage of Kremlin-friendly journalists moving about the complex with ease. The hosting of media personalities meant that it must be under Wagner control.
The mercenaries are likely to consolidate gains in the north and center of the city, push towards the city center, and expand the zone of control to the west, the ISW said.
Other Russian military bloggers said on Tuesday that Wagner fighters had gone closer to Bakhmut's city center and taken control of the city market. These claims were backed up by geolocated visual evidence.
The U.S. think tank said that Russian forces have made territorial gains of 5 percent over the last week and now controlled around two-thirds (65 percent) of Bakhmut.
The Wagner Group is headed by businessman Yevgeny Prigozhin, who has repeatedly criticized the Russian defense establishment in its operation of the war.
He may be seeking to capitalize on his high profile to present himself as a contender in the 2024 presidential election. He has appeared to copy some of the media techniques employed by Vladimir Putin, the ISW noted.
Instead of his usual video statements in front of a camera with wide shots depicting him on the battlefield, Prigozhin gave an interview to Russian state journalists with the businessman in the frame at his desk across from his audience.
"Prigozhin may seek to parody Putin's cinematography style as part of a larger trolling campaign to attack the Kremlin," the ISW said, "or draw tacit parallels between Prigozhin and the office of the Russian presidency."
Prigozhin has sarcastically said that he would like to run for the presidency of Ukraine. This was interpreted by some as promoting his push for Russia's election, which is also scheduled for 2024.
Prigozhin has also raised questions over whether Moscow was fighting against NATO and over the presence of Nazis in Ukraine, key justifications given by Vladimir Putin for his full-scale invasion. This behavior "is advancing a narrative among Russian society that Prigozhin has larger political aspirations in Russia," the ISW said.

Kushner-backed health care project gets 'devastating' review

By Arthur Allen
05/11/2018 04:54 PM EDT
Updated: 05/11/2018 07:13 PM EDT
The first stage of a multibillion-dollar military-VA digital health program championed by Jared Kushner has been riddled with problems so severe they could have led to patient deaths, according to a report obtained by POLITICO.
The April 30 report expands upon the findings of a March POLITICO story in which doctors and IT specialists expressed alarm about the software system, describing how clinicians at one of four pilot centers, Naval Station Bremerton, quit because they were terrified they might hurt patients, or even kill them.
Experts who saw the Pentagon evaluation - it lists 156 "critical" or "severe" incident reports with the potential to result in patient deaths - characterized it as "devastating."
"Traditionally, if you have more than five [incident reports] at that high a level, the program has significant issues," a member of the testing team told POLITICO.
The project's price tag and political sensitivity - it was designed to address nagging problems with military and veteran health care at a cost of about $20 billion over the next decade - means it is "just another 'too big to fail' program," the tester said. "The end result everyone is familiar with - years and years of delays and many billions spent trying to fix the mess."
The unclassified findings could further delay a related VA contract with Cerner Corp., the digital health records company that began installing the military's system in February 2017. The VA last year chose Cerner as its vendor, with the belief that sharing the same system would facilitate the exchange of health records when troops left the service. The military program, called MHS Genesis, was approved in 2015 under President Barack Obama.

Suspected Denver high school gunman Austin Lyle found dead of apparent suicide: report
Story by Katherine Donlevy - Yesterday 11:42 PM
The 17-year-old boy suspected of shooting two Denver high school administrators during a routine weapon check Wednesday was found dead of an apparent suicide, according to local reports.
Police found Austin Lyle's body near his car around 9 p.m., law enforcement sources told 9NEWS Denver.
The 2005 Red Volvo XC90 was found in a remote mountain area roughly 50 miles southwest of Denver.
Cops told neighbors that shelter-in-place orders had been lifted.
"They should be relieved that we came up here and solved the problem," Park County Sheriff Tom McGraw said.
"Be comfortable and know that everything is closed up now."

Lyle allegedly shot two school administrators just before 10 a.m. when they searched him for weapons, a daily requirement because of the boy's behavioral issues.
The teenager was transferred to the high school last year after he was removed from a nearby Aurora school for unspecified violations of school policies.
One of the victims was released from the hospital several hours after the shooting, but the second administrator remains in serious condition.

Trump's defense team is expected to be notified following any possible indictment and then they would engage in negotiations for surrender and an initial appearance.
Another witness is expected to testify Monday before the grand jury investigating the hush money payments, according to a source familiar with the investigation. It is not clear whether this would be the final witness before it votes on a possible indictment.
Trump's team has said repeatedly that he will not accept an invitation to testify before the grand jury. But multiple sources familiar with his legal team's thinking says that if there is an indictment, he would negotiate an agreed upon surrender date with the district attorney's office.
Trump's team has been huddled all week planning for various scenarios, including Trump traveling to New York as well as having a remote hearing where he stays at Mar-a-Lago, according to sources familiar with the meetings.
Some members of his legal team are advising Trump to ask for a remote appearance for security reasons should an indictment occur but it is unclear if he would agree to that as he has also discussed with his team wanting to give a statement at the courthouse, sources said.
Trump is also considering hiring a new TV-friendly lawyer who can handle the outside media, sources said. The former president is known for hiring lawyers and advisers based on their TV presence and ability to defend him in the media.
Two lawyers currently involved in the Justice Department's investigations around the former president, Jim Trusty and Christina Bobb, were brought into Trump's fold after he saw them on television.
The campaign is also adding staff to focus on messaging around the potential indictment, a detail first reported by The New York Times.
Law enforcement talks continue
Law enforcement discussions have been about how to navigate the potential indictment for a criminal charge by a New York county grand jury and the choreography around the possibility of an unprecedented arrest of a former president. The New York Police Department did not immediately respond to CNN's inquiry following Trump's posts on Saturday.
Trump's US Secret Service detail would deliver him to the Manhattan district attorney's Office for fingerprinting and then taking mugshots in offices of the district attorney's detective squad. As is customary in cases where a defendant is allowed to voluntarily surrender, after arrest processing, the former president would be brought directly to an arraignment before a judge where he would likely be released on his own recognizance.

City, state and federal law enforcement agencies meet about how to prep for possible Trump indictment
Law enforcement officials who are privy to the discussions said several concerns have been discussed in the planning process, including courthouse security and the potential for demonstrations or rallies outside of the courthouse by Trump supporters or counter demonstrations by anti-Trump protesters, with the risk of the two groups clashing.

The BBB's huge election win is a direct challenge to Mark Rutte's coalition
Dutch farmers protest against the Government's farming policy this month. Credit: getty.
With the highest turnout in 30 years, Dutch voters gave an extraordinary signal to their four-party Government on Wednesday: the Farmer Citizen Movement (BoerBurgerBeweging, or BBB) is set to come first in regional elections, which decide the make-up of the Dutch Senate.
In a long voting day, with locations from repurposed drive-through testing centres to ancient churches, an estimated 61% of Dutch people turned out. The result was astonishing, even though the party has been creeping up the polls, feeding on anti-establishment feeling after unpopular Covid lockdowns.
Some analysts saw the election as a fight between two 'moods' in the Netherlands: a mood of (Right-wing) discontent, echoed also across other countries, versus the traditional consensus-driven Dutch mood. With 18 parties in parliament, politicians have typically found a way to muddle along, but this election was different thanks to the thorny issue of nitrogen compound pollution, which is tying the country in knots before a bill has even passed through parliament.
EU rules, Dutch laws, and court verdicts mean the country must reduce emissions of ammonia, nitrogen oxides and nitrous oxide from farming, transport and building machines. The question is who takes the hit - and whether 30% of productive farms should be shut, forcibly if necessary. The Netherlands, which feeds the world with its intensive farming and livestock-heavy agriculture, is at the sharp end of the international climate debate.
According to initial results, the BBB, headed by sole MP Caroline van der Plas, will be the largest party in the Senate - polling at more than 30% in some regions. Meanwhile, support for the Government has been slashed. The result is a direct challenge to Dutch PM Mark Rutte, who has been embroiled in a number of scandals, such as gas mining in Groningen at the expense of citizen safety, punishing innocent (often dual-national) citizens for childcare benefit fraud and ongoing Dutch farmer protests about nitrogen emissions. Small wonder, then, that 46% of voters said they were specifically voting against the current national administration.
The strength of green feeling here, both for and against, is a bellwether for the struggle to come in other countries and farming economies. But BBB should not be dismissed as 'anti-green'; rather farmers are more of a lime green versus the dark green of the eco activists, both of whom claim they want to protect the land.
The reality of climate change mitigation or adaptation is playing out in the Netherlands right now, where these new provincial assemblies will need to come up with detailed plans to reduce nitrogen pollution by July.
Meanwhile, there is a national housing crisis and this is one of the top personal issues for people in the Netherlands. Nitrogen rules are getting in the way. Still, the success of the BBB serves as a warning shot to Mark Rutte and his government."This is a landslide we haven't seen for years," said CDA leader Wopke Hoekstra, a Government party whose traditional farmer support has evaporated. "It is an extraordinarily bitter pill."

Russian oil and gas production to shrink - minister
Output will slow as Moscow reroutes EU-bound flows to other markets, the official said
Russian oil and gas production to shrink - minister
? getty Images / Bloomberg Creative
Russia projects a decline in its oil and gas output this year compared to 2022, Energy Minister Nikolay Shulginov said on Wednesday.
In February, Russia announced it would respond to Western sanctions by halting sales to countries imposing the so-called price cap, and voluntarily reduced oil production by 500,000 barrels per day. Moscow said the move was designed to restore market relations shattered by the scheme, which it branded "illegal."
Addressing the Russian Parliament, Shulginov said that for 2023 he expected "oil production levels to be slightly lower, because of the voluntary reduction in output." The minister added that "gas production volumes will continue to decline, both due to the abandonment of the European market and the timing of the rerouting of energy flows to the East."
Russia's decision to reduce its oil production this month will help balance the global oil market, which is in a surplus now, Alexander Dyukov, the chief executive of Russian oil company Gazprom Neft, a subsidiary of Gazprom, said last month.
Oil production in Russia rose to 535.1 million tons last year from 524.5 million tons in 2021. Gas production dropped to 674 billion cubic meters (bcm) in 2022 compared to 763 bcm in the previous year.
In January Russia's oil exports surged to an all-time high previously reached in February 2020 despite the Western embargo on Moscow's seaborne crude as customers were rushing to boost their stocks of the commodity, a report by the International Energy Agency showed.
Meanwhile, other major oil producers like Saudi Arabia and Algeria have warned that Western sanctions such as the price cap on Russian oil will spark uncertainty and disrupt global trade flows.
(https://www.rt.com/business/573093-russian-oil-gas-production-drop/)
Eu leaders discuss the price caps right after they place the 10th sanction package of Russia, which had no effect on Russia.
Ursula, "Lets put a price cap on their gas and oil so we can afford it since all EU country economies are sinking!"
Minister says, "I'm pretty sure thats not a good idea, Russia said they wouldn't sell to us if we do it. And we really need their gas and oil."
Ursula says, "nonsense, they are on their knees to us or will be soon, lets cap the amount we pay".
Minister, "how are they on their knees, their economy is doing 4x better than us and they are getting major contracts with Asia and India?"
Ursula "Trust me I know how to deal with Putin!"
Minister, "This is stupid!"
The very next day the minister runs into Ursula's office, "did you hear what happened?"
She says, "what?"
Minister, "Russia blew up any of their last remaining pipelines to EU so they can never be threatened again"

Virgin Islands subpoena multiple banks for Jeffrey Epstein's financial records
Comments Off Share ArticleShare Article

By JAMES HILL, ABC News
(NEW YORK) – The government of the U.S. Virgin Islands is upping the ante in its quest to pierce the veil of secrecy that cloaked the life and wealth of financier Jeffrey Epstein, the deceased sex-offender who accrued a fortune of more than $650 million under mysterious circumstances.
At least 10 financial institutions including Deutsche Bank, JPMorgan Chase and Citibank have been issued subpoenas in recent weeks from the office of USVI Attorney General Denise George, according to court filings reviewed by ABC News. The subpoenas seek account records, transaction details and communications concerning Epstein, his estate, and more than 30 corporations, trusts and nonprofit entities connected to him.
The move comes as lawyers for Epstein's estate are locked in an increasingly acrimonious duel with George, who filed a civil forfeiture lawsuit against the estate in January, five months after Epstein died while in a federal jail in New York. The complaint alleges that Epstein constructed a network of companies and individuals to enable and conceal his alleged sex-trafficking of girls and young women to Little St. James, his luxurious private island resort off the east coast of St. Thomas.

Q Research General #22687: Burnt the Dough Edition
satanists love the art, museum, foundation business - for good reason. Art can have any assigned value. An art market can be created overnight in a previously unknown artist like Keith Haring. This makes art/museums antiquities a perfect way to move money around, while, at the same time, promoting inventory or stock-in-trade, art, as a store of long-term value.
A painting is worth what you say it is if you're the getty Museum, the Hammer, the Broad, the Norval, the Huntington or the whatever-cult-tycoon is pretending philanthropy and laughing at us as we reverently troop through their art gallery front operation. There's another good, valid and unholy reason satanic cult con artists like to use art galleries foundations and museum cover structures as operational fronts.
In the case of *art* we've been POWERFULLY conditioned never to seriously question art. Anyone who says "my kid could do that- " is culturally defined as an idiot. Only an ignoramus questions art. We've been taught this in movies and sitcoms, we've been told a hundred ways, a thousand times: only vulgar and uneducated people criticize art. Philistines. Prudes. Hicks. Yokels. Furthermore, we are taught that art is a specialist area, and if we aren't specialists or insiders, we couldn't possibly have anything worthwhile to say and we ought keep our crude thoughts to ourselves and our boorish mouths shut around what we don't understand; because art is sacrosanct; the sacred self-expression of the individual.
Decades of this powerful conditioning allowed Pedosta's fat brother Tony to pose for a multi-page spread in a glitzy DC magazine with his daemonic sculpture of a gilded homosexual torture victim and with pictures of abused children in bizarre ritual locations. ART. The same conditioning protects Marina Abramovic and the crowd of *stars" and *celebrities" photographed eating an *art* corpse soaked in honey at an *art* event. It's ART. The pedovores are rightfully confident in the powers of our conditioning to protect them that they licensed photos of themselves with forks stuck into the honeyed *art* corpse to be published in *art* & fashion magazines, blogs and supermarket tabloids. The honeyed corpse is a gnostic occult ritual. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mellified_man
Why do satanist pedovores parade their pathology in front of us? When we see Tony Pedosta, John "Skippy" Pedosta's brother's sculpture we do not understand consciously what we are seeing is a gold leaf covered model Dahmer's homosexual torture victim. What effect does seeing something we don't consciously understand or necessarily recall having seen have on us?
A lot. This is the "secret" of the effectiveness subliminal and subsonic embed programming. Words and images we don't know that we've seen are perceived by the unconscious component of our minds. We know this because tests using subliminal embeds not consciously seen still raises our blood pressure, increases our pulse rate, and fMRI studies show that these unperceived influences activate portions of the brain associated with memory and emotional trauma. We *do* understand sex and death images unconsciously and traumatic images are retained in memory below the threshold of conscious awareness to influence our future behavior over time. Images of sex and violence in unconscious memory affect us like PTSD caused by real world exposure to rape, torture, child pornography or physical trauma.
Information War or IW operations target the unconscious mind. This "witchcraft" works best when we are *not* aware of images we've been exposed to subliminally or even that we are being targeted at all.
Sculpture of Dahmer's torture victim is presented at galleries and in publicity as fashionable, highly sought after, rare and precious work collected by knowledgeable, prominent people like Tony and John Podesta.
satanist's social subversion/sabotage operations exploit our strongest social conditioning. Art world institutions, galleries and foundations are trumpeted as the highest form of philanthropy and criticizing them is not just foolish it's ungrateful. Art is a satanist controlled industrial market. Since the days of Bernard Berenson art has been used to create and launder money to authenticate forgeries and to smuggle antiquities. Big art shows and exposition are used to emotionally prime us for coming events, to predispose individuals and groups to adopt preferred attitudes, practices or behaviors in a multitude of social dimensions; while, at the same, generating enormous profits, tax breaks and (through school outreach programs) providing access to children.

https://nypost.com/2023/03/06/jan-6-footage-shows-cops-bringing-qanon-shaman-to-senate-floor/
The last 6 seconds show Jacob Chansley in the gallery of the one chambers (Senate?, also, note the clock reads 2:53...have checked other sources that Chansley was in the building as early as 1:30 PM).
What is weird is that a photographer is also in the gallery with him. Massive lens! Just like a photo shoot.
TinEye verifies that many of the press-posted photos I queried about are from gettys Images filed on January 6, 2023. By guess who...Win MacNamee, the absolute best veteran photographer gettys has. The files and his gear/clothing/hair style can be cross-referenced.
Now, I know he covers DC, and his father was also in the business. Yet, what business is that...FalseFlagFoto, Inc.?
How was MacNamee in place for an insurrection that was supposed to be organic? Why was he following Jacob Chansley around...IN the US Capitol?

This is the shot that MacNamee took. His camera is projected exactly at this angle when I took screen shots from the video. He was positioned to take these shots to make the epitome of the 'insurrection'.

The Right Way to Cover Hacks and Leaks Before the Election
The media knows it screwed up in 2016 with John Podesta. Here's how it should do better in the final weeks of the 2020 race.

New!
It seems clear, with four years of hindsight, that the American news media owes John Podesta an apology. The political media did almost everything wrong in covering the theft-and-leak of his private emails amid the heat of the 2016 presidential campaign, four years ago today-and yet it's not at all clear that if confronted by an operation similar to what Russian intelligence executed in targeting the Democratic National Committee via Hillary Clinton's campaign chair, that we'd get it any more right now.
In fact, so-called "hack-and-leaks" remain one of the most difficult stories to confront appropriately. As we enter the final weeks of the 2020 presidential campaign, when each day seems primed for an October surprise, it's worth thinking deeply about what makes these incidents so pernicious-and how we as a news media and a society might respond more maturely and rationally than in 2016.
From dozens of conversations this year with numerous reporters, editors, researchers, and executives-as well as a tabletop exercise I ran at the Aspen Institute this summer along with Vivian Schiller, the former CEO of National Public Radio, who now directs Aspen's media and technology program-it's clear there's a shared unease about how the news media handled the 2016 Russian attack on the DNC and Clinton campaign chair John Podesta. The unease stems not from any partisan preference for or against Hillary Clinton; it has to do with the sense that the US media allowed itself to be the delivery mechanism for a Russian attack on our democracy.
The basic details of the Podesta leak have come into focus thanks to the work of US intelligence and Robert Mueller's investigation as special counsel: On October 7, 2016, just hours after US intelligence first warned publicly of Russia's unfolding attack on the presidential election and just 30 minutes after the damaging Access Hollywood tape was released, Wikileaks began publishing thousands of emails stolen earlier that year by Russia intelligence from Podesta's personal email account.
Ever since the dust settled in November following Trump's surprise victory, there's been an uncomfortable sense that the media's tendency toward horse-race coverage aided and abetted a surprise attack by America's foremost foreign adversary. The Podesta theft and subsequent leak destabilized the campaign and muddled the line between two controversies-confusing many voters between the leak of the Podesta emails and the questions around Hillary Clinton's use of a private email at the State Department.
A "hack and leak" is among the most likely attacks the US might face in the closing weeks of the presidential race, and it is also one of the hardest to respond to adequately and effectively. The path forward requires understanding both the lessons of previous attacks and why Donald Trump's words and actions have made the current landscape particularly vulnerable.
How We Got to Now
The first major hack-and-leak was met with more amusement than alarm. To this day, North Korea's 2014 attack on Sony Pictures Entertainment remains misunderstood-a bizarre incident by a bizarre regime, more embarrassing than harmful, protesting a mediocre stoner movie with Seth Rogen and James Franco.
Yet it was actually a deeply destructive landmark attack, as it turns out, for reasons we didn't realize at the time. Beyond the actual financial and physical damage, the Sony hack burned itself into America's mind because the hackers hit the softest part of the company's IT system-emails-and weaponized that information through the use of social media. North Korea got the mainstream media to pick up on those leaks and do the hackers' bidding, causing reputational and financial damage to the company as Sony's innermost secrets were spread across the internet for all to read. A stolen spreadsheet of a company's executive salaries proved irresistible to reporters, who published it quickly; ditto for reporting on executives' candid comments on colleagues, actors, directors, and other Hollywood luminaries. Particularly in the sped-up news cycles of the digital age, the media had decided that the "newsworthiness" of purloined internal secrets outweighed any ethical dilemmas raised by how that material was obtained. In Sony's case, there was no sense or allegation of wrongdoing-just hot gossip.

DC Health Link is the District of Columbia's health insurance marketplace.
A data breach at DC Health Link may have exposed thousands of enrollees' personal information.
Information for hundreds of House members and staff was also stolen, according to a memo.
Personal information of hundreds of House members and staff was stolen due to a data breach at the District of Columbia's online health insurance marketplace, DC Health Link, according to a memo from a top House official.
The FBI notified Szpindor that the "account information and (Personal Identifiable Information) of hundreds of Member and House staff were stolen" during that breach.
The full scope of the incident remains unclear, but the attack does not appear to be specifically targeted toward House members, Szpindor wrote.
DC Health Link's spokesperson Adam Hudson confirmed the reports of exposed data to Insider.
"We have initiated a comprehensive investigation and are working with forensic investigators and law enforcement," Hudson said in an email. "Concurrently, we are taking action to ensure the security and privacy of our users' personal information. We are in the process of notifying impacted customers and will provide identity and credit monitoring services.

Congress members and staff are provided health insurance under the Affordable Care Act which passed in 2010. To enroll, lawmakers and their staff rely on DC Health Link to choose their specific plans.
About 100,000 people are enrolled through DC Health Link, according to its website, including "more than 5,000 District small businesses, approximately 11,000 designated Congressional staff and Members of Congress, and thousands of District residents."
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy and Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries have formally requested more information from DC Health Link on what data was stolen, who was impacted, and measures are being taken, Szpindor said in the memo.

Gigi Sohn, President Joe Biden's nominee to fill the vacant seat on the Federal Communication Commission (FCC), announced on Tuesday her decision to withdraw from consideration.
Sohn said in a statement, first obtained by The Washington Post, that the "unrelenting, dishonest and cruel attacks on my character and my career as an advocate for the public interest" over the past 16 contentious months since Biden first nominated her for the position "have taken an enormous toll on me and my family."
"It is a sad day for our country and our democracy when dominant industries, with assistance from unlimited dark money, get to choose their regulators," she said. "And with the help of their friends in the Senate, the powerful cable and media companies have done just that."
Sohn made the announcement after Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) put out a statement earlier on Tuesday saying that he would "vote against Gigi Sohn for Democratic Commissioner" on the FCC.
Referring to the bipartisan opposition to her nomination for "her years of partisan activism, inflammatory statements online, and work with far-left groups," Manchin said that he "cannot support [Sohn's] nomination to the FCC, and I urge the Biden Administration to put forth a nominee who can bring us together, not drive us apart."
"Especially now, the FCC must remain above the toxic partisanship that Americans are sick and tired of," he said, "and Ms. Sohn has clearly shown she is not the person to do that."

Gigi Sohn has withdrawn her nomination to serve on the Federal Communications Commission, as first reported by The Washington Post Tuesday.
Sohn, a former FCC official, longtime public interest advocate, was nominated as a third Democratic commissioner by President Joe Biden in October 2021. But over the last 16 months, a brutal and oftentimes bad-faith lobbying campaign has continued to block her nomination. That's left the FCC with a 2-2 partisan split that has blocked many of Biden's goals for the agency, including reinstating net neutrality rules.
"It is a sad day for our country and our democracy"
"I could not have imagined that legions of cable and media industry lobbyists, their bought-and-paid-for surrogates, and dark money political groups with bottomless pockets would distort my over 30-year history as a consumer advocate into an absurd caricature of blatant lies," Sohn said in a statement to The Verge on Tuesday. "The unrelenting, dishonest, and cruel attacks on my character and my career as an advocate for the public interest have taken an enormous toll on me and my family."
Sohn's decision to drop out of consideration comes less than a month after the Senate Commerce Committee held a third confirmation hearing debating her nomination. Throughout the hearing, Republicans echoed many of the same attacks volleyed by Sohn's critics, calling her an "extremist" and a threat to free speech.
"It is a sad day for our country and our democracy when dominant industries, with assistance from unlimited dark money, get to choose their regulators," Sohn said. "And with the help of their friends in the Senate, the powerful cable and media companies have done just that."

Former Vice President Mike Pence files motion to block Jan. 6 subpoena: reports
Pence previously said he would fight DOJ subpoena because he believes it is 'unconstitutional' and 'unprecedented'
Mike Pence still considering a presidential bid despite document scandal
Fox News Senior National Correspondent Rich Edson speaks with former Vice President Mike Pence on a potential White House run despite the revelation that Pence had classified documents in his home.
Former Vice President Mike Pence, who was subpoenaed last month by the special counsel overseeing investigations into former President Donald Trump relating to the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol, filed a motion on Friday to block the subpoena, according to reports.
CNN reported that a source familiar with the filing claimed Pence filed the motion on the basis that the U.S. Constitution's Speech or Debate clause protects him from providing testimony related to Jan. 6.

The former VP has argued the subpoena was "unconstitutional and unprecedented," and he told reporters in February during a gaggle in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, that his efforts to fight the subpoena are evidence of the "double standard" Republicans face.
"I'm going to fight the Biden DOJ subpoena for me to appear before the grand jury because I believe it's unconstitutional and it's unprecedented," Pence told reporters at the time. "Never before in American history has a vice president been summoned to appear in court to testify against the president with whom they serve."
Representatives for Pence did not immediately respond to questions regarding the filing.

Pence's motion, which CNN said was filed as part of sealed proceedings, aims at placing a halt on his testimony as it relates to his duties as a legislator at the time of the riot.
Pence has stated that his fight is on the principle of separation of powers and the Constitution, and that he "had no right" to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election during a joint meeting of Congress on Jan. 6, 2021.
He argued the Speech or Debate Clause in the Constitution prohibits him from being compelled by the Biden administration to appear in court, adding that he will fight the subpoena on that principle all the way to the Supreme Court if necessary.
The subpoena came after months of negotiations between the former VP's legal team and federal prosecutors.
Special Counsel Jack Smith, who filed the subpoenae for Pence's testimony, is looking into both documents and testimony related to the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol, as well as Trump's possible mishandling of classified documents after leaving office.

Kellyanne Conway and George Conway to divorce after 22 years of marriage
By Oli Coleman and Ian MohrMarch 3, 2023 | 6:22pm
D.C's weirdest marriage is over.
Page Six hears that Kellyanne Conway, the longtime advisor to President Donald Trump, and George Conway, the longtime tormentor of President Trump, have decided to divorce after 22 years of marriage.
Beltway insiders tell us that they've both lawyered up and that the two sides are hashing out the details of the split.

Kellyanne and George Conway, who did public battle over the Trump administration, are getting a divorce.
Gregory P. Mango
During the 2016 elections, Kellyanne served first as a campaign advisor to candidate Trump and then as his campaign manager, while her husband co-founded the Lincoln Project with the express purpose of keeping Trump out of the White House.
After the inauguration, she became senior counselor to the president, while George continued to lambast Trump at every opportunity on social media.

Kellyanne called her husband's online criticism of her boss, Donald Trump, "cheating by tweeting."

In 2022, Vanity Fair wrote that, "One of the greatest mysteries of the 21st century is the marriage of Kellyanne Conway and her husband, George - specifically, if they hate each other as much as their public commentary would suggest, or if the whole thing is some kind of three-dimensional chess designed to further their own interests."
The mystery appears to have been solved.

The Conways were married for 22 years before deciding to split.

The pair wed in 2001 and share four children, but their political differences during the Trump administration took a toll on their relationship.
In her 2022 memoir "Here's the Deal," Kellyanne said that she considered George's steady barrage of criticism of the then-president a betrayal of their marriage, calling it "cheating by tweeting." She also said that Ivanka Trump had suggested couples therapy.
The Conways have four kids including Claudia Conway, who exposed the family's tension on TikTok.

Trump himself tweeted of George, "I barely know him but just take a look, a stone cold LOSER & husband from hell!" Kellyanne defended the post, saying that it was part of Trump's famous flair for "punching back," and that her husband had suggested her boss was mentally ill without justification.
Meanwhile, the relationship faced a major curveball last year when their daughter, "American Idol" contestant Claudia Conway, began posting troubling videos about their family life online.
Both parents resigned from their positions to spend time with the family in the wake of the odd online activity.
Claudia has since said that she stepped back from the media after her viral experience "because of the way that my words were being misconstrued."
She also said that she and Kellyanne started going to therapy together, and, according to the site, "Claudia says those sessions helped them understand and make peace with each other."
Insiders say that the pair have attempted to repair the marriage, but have now decided the call it.
Another source told us that the split has been buzzed about inside the Beltway for months.

South African President Cyril Ramaphosa declared a state of disaster with immediate effect, as the country faced an acute electricity shortage
Feb 27, 2023
South Africa is currently on edge of a "civil war" like unrest, amid warnings that the country could be facing rolling blackouts and the possibility of a total power grid failure. As the fears of mass rioting grow, Western embassies including the US and Australia have urged their citizens to stock up on "several days worth" of food and water, advising them to be on high alert during the extended blackouts that are sweeping the country during its energy crisis. The country has been grappling with frequent six-hour-long power cuts, creating a major energy crisis that has sparked mass protests and civil unrest.

Earlier this month, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa declared a state of disaster with immediate effect, as the country faced an acute electricity shortage.
As a result, state-owned power company Eskom has had to issue rolling blackout events known as "load shedding", which have lasted up to 12 hours in some instances, news.com.au reports.
Earlier this month, Australia's Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade said: "Rolling blackouts (load shedding) are occurring throughout South Africa which are affecting private residences, businesses, municipal lighting, traffic lights and hotels.
"Blackouts can also affect water availability, internet connectivity, mobile phone network coverage, fuel availability, residential security features, and food supply."

Q Research General #22568: Dank eBake Edition
satanists love the art, museum, foundation business - for good reason. Art can have any assigned value. An art market can be created overnight in a previously unknown artist like Keith Haring. This makes art/museums antiquities a perfect way to move money around, while, at the same time, promoting inventory or stock-in-trade, art, as a store of long-term value.
A painting is worth what you say it is if you're the getty Museum, the Hammer, the Broad, the Norval, the Huntington or the whatever-cult-tycoon is pretending philanthropy and laughing at us as we reverently troop through their art gallery front operation. There's another good, valid and unholy reason satanic cult con artists like to use art galleries foundations and museum cover structures as operational fronts.
In the case of *art* we've been POWERFULLY conditioned never to seriously question art. Anyone who says "my kid could do that- " is culturally defined as an idiot. Only an ignoramus questions art. We've been taught this in movies and sitcoms, we've been told a hundred ways, a thousand times: only vulgar and uneducated people criticize art. Philistines. Prudes. Hicks. Yokels. Furthermore, we are taught that art is a specialist area, and if we aren't specialists or insiders, we couldn't possibly have anything worthwhile to say and we ought keep our crude thoughts to ourselves and our boorish mouths shut around what we don't understand; because art is sacrosanct; the sacred self-expression of the individual.
Decades of this powerful conditioning allowed Pedosta's fat brother Tony to pose for a multi-page spread in a glitzy DC magazine with his daemonic sculpture of a gilded homosexual torture victim and with pictures of abused children in bizarre ritual locations. ART. The same conditioning protects Marina Abramovic and the crowd of *stars" and *celebrities" photographed eating an *art* corpse soaked in honey at an *art* event. It's ART. The pedovores are rightfully confident in the powers of our conditioning to protect them that they licensed photos of themselves with forks stuck into the honeyed *art* corpse to be published in *art* & fashion magazines, blogs and supermarket tabloids. The honeyed corpse is a gnostic occult ritual. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mellified_man
Why do satanist pedovores parade their pathology in front of us? When we see Tony Pedosta, John "Skippy" Pedosta's brother's sculpture we do not understand consciously what we are seeing is a gold leaf covered model Dahmer's homosexual torture victim. What effect does seeing something we don't consciously understand or necessarily recall having seen have on us?
A lot. This is the "secret" of the effectiveness subliminal and subsonic embed programming. Words and images we don't know that we've seen are perceived by the unconscious component of our minds. We know this because tests using subliminal embeds not consciously seen still raises our blood pressure, increases our pulse rate, and fMRI studies show that these unperceived influences activate portions of the brain associated with memory and emotional trauma. We *do* understand sex and death images unconsciously and traumatic images are retained in memory below the threshold of conscious awareness to influence our future behavior over time. Images of sex and violence in unconscious memory affect us like PTSD caused by real world exposure to rape, torture, child pornography or physical trauma.
Information War or IW operations target the unconscious mind. This "witchcraft" works best when we are *not* aware of images we've been exposed to subliminally or even that we are being targeted at all.
Sculpture of Dahmer's torture victim is presented at galleries and in publicity as fashionable, highly sought after, rare and precious work collected by knowledgeable, prominent people like Tony and John Podesta.
satanist's social subversion/sabotage operations exploit our strongest social conditioning. Art world institutions, galleries and foundations are trumpeted as the highest form of philanthropy and criticizing them is not just foolish it's ungrateful. Art is a satanist controlled industrial market. Since the days of Bernard Berenson art has been used to create and launder money to authenticate forgeries and to smuggle antiquities. Big art shows and exposition are used to emotionally prime us for coming events, to predispose individuals and groups to adopt preferred attitudes, practices or behaviors in a multitude of social dimensions; while, at the same, generating enormous profits, tax breaks and (through school outreach programs) providing access to children.

The Lady of Longleat
Tania Duckworth, model, child star, actress and singer from Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) poses with lion Marquess in bikini bottoms and a leather jacket, circa October 1967, at Longleat, the ancestral home of the Marquesses of Bath. Longleat dates from 1579 and is regarded as one of the finest examples of Elizabethan architecture, is the first stately home to open to the public in Britain and the first to feature a safari park outside of Africa. Tania is the "anti-wife" of Viscount Weymouth, Alexander Thynne (later Thynn), subsequently the 7th Marquess of Bath, to whom she was married in a "deist-humanist" ceremony of his own devising in 1966; in 1969 they were to have an "anti-divorce" though she is nowhere listed as his official wife. The 7th Marquess was known especially for having over seventy mistresses or "wife-lets" and erotic murals depicting scenes from the Kama Sutra which he painted and which adorned the private apartments of Longleat; after her "divorce" Tania had an uncredited screen role as a "Brothel Girl" in Federico Fellini's film "Satyricon". The 7th Marquess died of the Covid-19 virus in April 2020 at the age of 87. (Photo by John Bulmer/Popperfoto via getty Images)

I think this is going to be a very important exercise for Russia. It will be Russia signalling that it still has friends, that it's not crippled by sanctions, that it can project its power, that it still has a powerful navy despite what's happening in Ukraine. And so I think Russia will use this as a huge propaganda coup.
South Africa has different reasons for undertaking these exercises, but it is playing into that narrative.
Do you think ultimately it could be harmful to South Africa?
We had Janet Yellen in South Africa, the U.S. Treasury Secretary, a couple of weeks ago, and she said it's ill-advised and will be problematic. I don't know whether there'll be lost investment or any trade retaliation by Western countries. It's too early to tell. But I know that they're really not happy with these exercises taking place on the very anniversary of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
The timing is not lost on anyone, certainly. And I'm just wondering how South Africa has been addressing concerns about that timing, but also that it's doing these with Russia in the first place.
This is not the first time. They had joint exercises in 2019, but the world looked different. And Russia was still occupying parts of eastern Ukraine then, but the new offensive that we saw in February hadn't happened yet.
South Africa also argues that it's done military drills with the U.S. at least four times in the last decade, it does military drills with France, and that it's balancing its relations with different powers.
What about South African people? How do they feel about these exercises taking place?
There's been quite a lot of opposition ... particularly the Democratic Alliance [party] has really slammed the [African National Congress] government for this.
It's difficult to know what the public feels, but I think many are really scratching their heads and saying, can South Africa still be asserting that it has a non-aligned stance when it is taking part in these exercises? … We don't have as much polling as I would like in South Africa to know.
There is actually a lot of support among South African citizens on social media, etc. There is a constituency that believes that this is a war between NATO and Russia and that NATO's encroaching on Russia's sphere of influence and that Russia is justified in what it's doing.

Do you think that people in the West are not realizing how this conflict is perceived outside of Europe and North America?
The UN votes tell a story that Africa has been split down the middle. We've also seen these high-level visits from the Russians and the Americans to Africa in the last six months. And so if they didn't know it before, I think the message is getting through.
Can South Africa really claim neutrality at this point?
I think it's very difficult. I think people are doubting that.
There have just been signs that in the pronouncements of [South African President Cyril Ramaphosa], in the refusal to condemn the invasion, and the way and that South Africa has voted - it abstained on all the UN General Assembly votes - all of these are signs that it is not neutral in this conflict and that it is leaning towards Russia.
What else could this relationship bring to South Africa?
South Africa really identifies with the positions that Russia and China are advocating in the global arena. There may be support for a reformed Security Council and an African seat - or in fact several African seats, permanent seats on the council - so there's a geopolitical game.
I think South Africa has an ideological affinity to China and Russia. I think they see a lot of hypocrisy in that the West has launched many invasions and there hasn't been the same hue and cry. And that the Russian call for a multipolar world rather than a unipolar world resonates with South Africa.
There's a lot of reasons. There is history. The Soviet Union was a big supporter of the African National Congress, which is now in government, and I think there's some nostalgia for that era.

Relationships have to be nurtured over time. What has the West not done, in your view, to get it to this point?

The FBI got walloped last week when a Michigan jury concluded that the bureau had entrapped two men accused of plotting to kidnap Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. Those men and others were arrested a few weeks before the 2020 election in a high-profile, FBI-fabricated case that Joe Biden claimed showed President Trump's "tolerance of hate, vengeance, and lawlessness to plots such as this one." But the jury verdict exposes how the feds have created the monsters they parade to vindicate their vast power over Americans.

A Secret, Shady Russian Satellite Just Broke Apart in Earth's Orbit

The Russian Kosmos 2499 satellite has been shrouded in mystery since it launched almost a decade ago.
The secret satellite recently broke into 85 pieces and will pose a debris hazard for at least a century.
Experts aren't yet sure why the satellite broke apart.
We don't know a lot about the secret Russian satellite Kosmos 2499. But we do know that it just broke apart about 745 miles above Earth, posing a messy mix of debris in a well-traveled orbit.
Ever since launching nearly a decade ago,Kosmos 2499 has proven to be mysterious. Even the fate of the secret satellite's demise-initially deemed likely from a small explosion on the satellite, potentially due to some sort of failure-is a bit murky.
But now it's in 85 different pieces, thanks to info via Twitter from the 18th Space Defense Squadron, and what was once a mysterious satellite is now mixing plenty of debris in a well-traveled orbit for many other satellites.

Rep. Matt Gaetz Won't Be Criminally Charged In DOJ Sex Trafficking Probe
By B911 -February 15, 202302

Steve Scalise (R-LA) (L) listens during a press conference at the U.S. October 23, 2019 in Washington, DC. Rep. Gaetz held the press conference to call for transparency in impeachment inquiry. (Photo by Alex Wong/getty Images)
According to multiple reports, the Department of Justice has notified the lawyers of at least one witness that Republican Representative Matt Gaetz from Florida will not face charges after a federal sex-trafficking investigation that has lasted for years.
The decision not to prosecute Gaetz was made by the Department of Justice leadership, after investigators recommended against charges last year. Gaetz's lawyers, Marc Mukasey and Isabelle Kirshner, stated that they had spoken with the DOJ and were informed that the investigation into Gaetz's alleged sex trafficking and obstruction of justice has concluded, and no charges would be brought against him.
"We have just spoken with the DOJ and have been informed that they have concluded their investigation into Congressman Gaetz and allegations related to sex trafficking and obstruction of justice and they have determined not to bring any charges against him," Gaetz's lawyers Marc Mukasey and Isabelle Kirshner said in a statement.
Gaetz's office issued a separate statement acknowledging that the investigation has ended, and no charges will be filed. The DOJ's decision to not charge Gaetz, who has been a member of Congress since 2017, marks the end of a lengthy investigation into allegations that he violated federal law by paying for sex, including with minors.
Gaetz has consistently denied any wrongdoing.

Charges dismissed against reporter arrested at Ohio train derailment
Charges dismissed against reporter arrested at Ohio train derailment
Posted/updated on: February 15, 2023 at 12:09 pm
Ilkay Dede / EyeEm/getty Images
(EAST PALESTINE, Ohio) – Trespassing and resisting arrest charges were dismissed Wednesday against NewsNation reporter Evan Lambert, who was arrested at a press conference last week about the East Palestine, Ohio, train derailment.
"My office has reviewed the relevant video and documentary evidence, and is dismissing the charges against Evan Lambert as unsupported by sufficient evidence," Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost announced Wednesday.
"While journalists could conceivably be subject to criminal charges for trespassing in some situations, this incident is not one of them. The reporter was lawfully present at a press conference called by the Governor of the state. His conduct was consistent with the purpose of the event and his role as a reporter," Yost added.
Lambert had been charged with resisting arrest, a second-degree misdemeanor, and criminal trespassing, a fourth-degree misdemeanor.
According to NewsNation, Lambert was doing a live report while Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine spoke at a press conference about the cleanup efforts following a train derailment in a small Ohio village, prompting law enforcement to ask Lambert to be quiet. NewsNation said that Lambert concluded the segment before being asked to leave.
Multiple videos from the incident show officers arresting and subsequently forcibly removing Lambert.
"I'm still processing what was a traumatic event for me, in the context of a time where we are hyper aware of how frequently some police interactions with people of color can end in much worse circumstances. That is not lost on me," Lambert said in a statement.
He continued, "At the same time, as a journalist who has spent more than a decade covering crime, courts and more recently federal law enforcement, I have great respect for the officers who do their jobs each day with integrity, civil rights, justice and safety at the core of their mission."
DeWine's office said he did not see the incident but heard a "disagreement," according to his press secretary.
"Regardless of the intent, arresting a journalist reporting at a press conference is a serious matter," Yost said. "Ohio protects a free press under its constitution, and state officials should remember to exercise a heightened level of restraint in using arrest powers."
ABC News' Peter Charalambous and Will McDuffie contributed to this report.

Former South Carolina Governor and ex-U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley announced on Tuesday she running for the presidency in 2024, highlighting her unique background and calling for a "change."
"I'm Nikki Haley, and I'm running for president," she announced in the three-minute video released on social media.
In the video, Haley spoke about her unique background, slammed racial politics, called out China, and called for Republicans to win back the popular vote:
"I was the proud daughter of Indian immigrants. Not black, not white. I was different. But my mom would always say your job is not to focus on the differences, but the similarities. And my parents reminded me and my siblings every day how blessed we were to live in America," she said.
"Some look at our past as evidence that America's founding principles are bad. They say the promise of freedom is just made out. Some think our ideas are not just wrong, but racist and evil. Nothing could be further from the truth. I have seen evil. In China, they commit genocide. In Iran, they murder their own people for challenging the government. And when a woman tells you about watching soldiers throw her baby into a fire. It puts things in perspective. Even on our worst day, we are blessed to live in America," she said.
She highlighted her roots in South Carolina and becoming governor.
"I was born and raised in South Carolina. So I've seen the very best of our country. People here threw out the old, tired political establishment and demanded accountability for their tax dollars. Industry reports called us the 'Beast of the Southeast,' which I love. People came by the thousands for fresh starts. Moms and dads held their heads up high. Children learned that it was always a great day in South Carolina," she said.
She spoke of "God and values that still make our country the freest and greatest in the world," but called for a change in the Republican Party.
"Republicans have lost the popular vote in seven out of the last eight presidential elections. That has to change," she said.
She slammed President Joe Biden's record as well as "the Washington establishment."
"It's time for a new generation of leadership to rediscover fiscal responsibility, secure our border and strengthen our country our pride and our purpose," she said.

Despite recently passing legislation that will impose hundreds of billions of dollars in taxes on America's job creators, my Democratic colleagues are using a new Government Accountability Office report as justification for a push to raise taxes even further on businesses they think aren't paying their "fair share." But the report, which examines the average effective tax rates of large corporations before and after the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, argues more in favor of the GOP reforms than Democrats admit.
Issued on the request of the Democratic leaders of the Senate Finance and Senate Budget committees, the report elicited pronouncements from that side of the aisle that the GOP tax reforms provide corporate windfalls. The day it was released to the public, then-Budget Committee Chairman Sen. Bernie Sanders railed, "We need to repeal the Trump tax breaks for the rich and demand that the largest corporations in America finally start paying their fair share of taxes."

Poll: Trump Boasts Highest Favorability in Hypothetical 2024 Republican Field
Former President Donald Trump boasts the highest favorability in a hypothetical 2024 Republican presidential primary, a Morning Consult survey released this week found.
The survey confirmed what has been seen in several other surveys as of late, with Trump taking the clear lead in the hypothetical 2024 presidential field. In this survey, Trump leads his closest potential challenger, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R), by 18 percent, garnering support from nearly half of potential GOP voters - 49 percent. That reflects a two-point uptick from the 47 percent support he saw roughly one month ago in the same survey:
2024 National Republican Primary:
Trump 49%
DeSantis 31%
Pence 7%
Haley 3%
Cheney 2%
Cruz 2%
Abbott 1%
Noem 1%
Pompeo 1%
T. Scott 1%
Youngkin 0%
.@MorningConsult, 3,549 RV, 2/3-5https://t.co/8E7nq4VZzW
- Political Polls (@Politics_Polls) February 7, 2023
The poll also explored the favorability of each potential candidate and found Trump leading the pack in terms of favorability, as 80 percent have a favorable view of the former president, while 18 percent do not.
DeSantis comes in second place in terms of favorability, as 73 percent have a favorable view of the governor. While just nine percent have an unfavorable view, nine percent also said they have never heard of him - a factor Trump does not have an issue with.
Sixty-one percent have a favorable view of both former Vice President Mike Pence and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), but 31 percent have a negative view of Pence, compared to 19 percent for Cruz.
The remainder of the potential challengers see favorability ratings below 50 percent, but it appears that could be due to the fact, in part, that some are not as well known.
For instance, 32 percent rate South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem (R) favorably, compared to ten percent who do not. However, nearly four in ten, 38 percent, have never heard of her. Similarly, 37 percent view Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) favorably and 11 percent unfavorably, but 30 percent said they have never heard of him, either.
The same could be said for Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R), as over one-third, 34 percent, also said they have never heard of him.
Former U.S. ambassador to the U.N. Nikki Haley (R), who is expected to announce a presidential bid this month, has 45 percent viewing her favorably and 15 percent viewing her unfavorably. Nearly one-quarter, 24 percent, said they never heard of her, either.
Only one potential candidate listed had a majority viewing her unfavorably - former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY), with 53 percent viewing her unfavorably compared to just 18 percent who have a favorable view.

The survey was taken February 3-5, 2023, among 3,549 potential GOP primary voters and comes as Trump continues to dominate the potential GOP primary field in poll after poll.

Federal Communications commissioner Brendan Carr says high-altitude balloons could be used to deliver internet to Cuba, as the country's communist regime shut down internet access to block protests from spreading across the country.
"There's an urgent need right now," Carr said, but "a lot depends on the level of federal support." The federal government could leverage a defunct Google initiative that used stratospheric balloons like cell towers to deliver internet access, Carr told the Washington Free Beacon. Called Project Loon, the initiative was shuttered due to a lack of commercial viability. Carr said sourcing the balloons and "de-mothballing" them from warehouses would pose a logistical problem but noted the technology had been successfully used around the world, including in Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria destroyed cell towers in the country.

Florida Republicans have led the push for internet access in Cuba, with Governor Ron DeSantis calling on President Biden to provide funding and federal resources. "What does the regime do when you start to see these images?" DeSantis said. "They shut down the internet, they don't want the truth to be out, they don't want people to be able to communicate." Senator Marco Rubio, who is Cuban-American, called on "innovative American companies" to provide internet access.
In a press conference Thursday, Biden said his administration would look into ways to deliver internet to the island. "They've cut off access to the internet. We're considering whether we have the technology to reinstate that access," Biden said.

According to a statement from her chief of staff, Rep. Angie Craig (D-Minn.) was assaulted at her Washington D.C. apartment building on Thursday morning.
The incident, which took place in the building's elevator around 7:15 a.m., left her with bruises.
"Rep. Craig called 9-1-1 and the assailant fled the scene of the assault," Craig's Chief of Staff Nick Coe said in the statement. "Rep. Craig is grateful to the DC Metropolitan Police Department for their quick response and asks for privacy at this time."
The lawmaker called 911 and the attacker fled the scene. Her office said that the attack does not seem to have been politically motivated.

Columba Bush's lavish spending habits scrutinized
Wife of Jeb Bush joins a long list of political spouses with a taste for extravagance

The history of U.S. political spouses whose lavish spending habits have attracted public attention is about as old as the country itself.
First lady Mary Todd Lincoln was known as a compulsive shopper roundly criticized for her indiscriminate spending and shopping binges during the Civil War. Nancy Reagan's expensive tastes and designer dresses earned her the derogatory nickname "Queen Nancy." Calista Gingrich owed as much as $500,000 to Tiffany's, according to financial disclosures made during Newt Gingrich's 2012 presidential run. First lady Michelle Obama's taste for fashion - she once wore $540 sneakers to a food bank - is well-documented.
Add Columba Bush to that list.
The lavish spending habits of wife of former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush are the subject of an extensive piece published by the Washington Post on Monday, which details her expensive - and, on one occasion, problematic - tastes.
Between 1995 and 2009, Columba Bush financed at least five large purchases from Mayors Jewelers in Sunrise, Fla.
In 1997, she paid $31,000 for two pieces of jewelry ($15,000 for a Roman coin necklace and $16,600 for a diamond-studded Rolex) - both financed through the jeweler.
In 2000, she took out a loan "to buy $42,311.70 worth of jewelry on a single day," according to records filed with the state of Florida and obtained by the paper:
Uniform Commercial Code forms filed by the store with the Florida secretary of state's office on May 3, 2000, indicate that Mayors arranged a loan under which Columba Bush bought four items. They were: a $25,600 pair of diamond stud earrings set in platinum; an 18-karat white-gold and diamond bracelet by the Italian designer Bulgari, priced at $10,500; an 18-karat white-gold and diamond necklace, costing $3,200; and another pair of diamond earrings, for $3,300. The records indicate that she received discounts and price adjustments totalling $2,780 and paid $2,491.70 in sales tax.
The year before, she was detained at Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport after misleading federal customs officials about the amount of clothing and jewelry she had bought while on a solo five-day shopping spree in Paris." According to the then-governor, Columba said she did so because she didn't not want him to know how much money she had spent on the trip: about $19,000. She was fined $4,100 for the episode.
"It is a lot of money," Jeb Bush said at the time. "But look, that's between her and me."
As recently as 2009, Columba took out a loan for $17,600 for a Rolex Submariner watch ($11,700) and a $5,900 pair of earrings.
According to the Post, Columba is press-averse and "famously private." But with Jeb Bush considering a presidential run in 2016, her history of lavish purchases - like some of her diamonds - is likely to be magnified, especially if her husband advances past the primary stage.
During the 2012 campaign, a $990 silk T-shirt worn by Mitt Romney's wife, Ann, during an appearance on "CBS This Morning" quickly drew criticism.
"Ann Romney's $990 T-shirt is indicative of a tone-deaf campaign," Suzi Parker wrote in the Washington Post.

Christmas in Beijing: Catholics attend mass on 24 December 2018
A bishop has been ordained with the blessing of both the Popeand the Chinese state for the first time under a new deal.
Religious organisations in China must be approved by the state, leading to a decades-long row with the Vatican.
But a deal was agreed last September, giving the Vatican a say in the bishops appointed by the state church.
Yao Shun received the papal mandate for his ordination as bishop in China's Inner Mongolia region.
The country is home to about 12 million Catholics - split between the Chinese Patriotic Catholic Association and an underground church loyal to the Vatican.
For decades, members of the underground church have only recognised the authority of the pope, while members of the state church have refused it. The relationship between the Holy See and Beijing has been strained by the disagreement since the 1950s.

China wants its balloon back
Beijing has called for the US to return debris from its alleged surveillance aircraft, which was shot down over the Atlantic
The Chinese Foreign Ministry has requested that President Joe Biden's administration return debris from the air balloon that the US military shot down off America's east coast on Saturday, saying the aircraft "belongs to China."
Speaking at a press briefing on Tuesday, ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning was asked whether Beijing had asked for the balloon debris to be returned. "The airship does not belong to the US," she said. "It belongs to China."
Ning's comments came three days after a US fighter jet shot down the balloon - alleged by American officials to be a spying aircraft - off the coast of South Carolina. The Pentagon claimed to have detected the balloon on Wednesday. Biden faced fierce criticism for allowing the balloon to cross the continent, passing over a nuclear missile site and other sensitive military assets, before bringing it down.
The balloon was a civilian meteorological research airship that entered US airspace inadvertently after being blown off course, the Chinese Foreign Ministry said on Friday. Ning said some US politicians and media outlets "hyped" the incident to "attack and smear China." She declined to provide any more details about the airship on Tuesday.
"The Chinese side has given information about the unmanned airship on several occasions,"Ning said. "I don't have anything to add at the moment." She added that the US government failed to respond in a "calm and professional manner," instead overreacting to an incident that posed no security threat and didn't endanger any Americans.
US Senator Steve Daines, a Montana Republican, speculated that Chinese officials sent the balloon across North America to probe Washington's response. "This was really more of a trial balloon by the Chinese," Daines told Fox News on Monday. He added that Biden was "indecisive," projecting weakness. "It was exactly what the Chinese wanted to see happen."

DOJ abandons Trump-era program aimed at Chinese spying

The Justice Department is ending its China Initiative, a program that Asian-American groups said contributed to bias against Chinese immigrants and Americans of Chinese descent and that resulted in some high-profile prosecutorial failures.
Launched under the Trump administration and intended to identify and prosecute Chinese threats to national security, it also led to criminal charges against researchers and academics that collapsed.
"Make no mistake. We will be relentless in defending our country from China," said Matt Olsen, the assistant attorney general in charge of the national security division. But he said "a new approach is needed to tackle the most severe threats from a range of hostile nation-states."
Olsen said a three-month review, including discussions with the FBI and other intelligence agencies, research agencies and universities, convinced him that the initiative was too narrowly focused. He said representatives of the Asian-American and Pacific Islander communities said the program contributed to a rise in bias against them.
"We helped give rise to a harmful perception that the department applies a lower standard to investigate and prosecute criminal conduct related to that country or that we in some way view people with racial, ethnic, or family ties to China differently," he said.
In a speech at George Mason University and in comments to reporters, Olsen said his division is looking at threats from all countries, including not only China, but also Russia, Iran and North Korea, that seek to steal U.S. government secrets and American technological innovations.
The China Initiative led to a series of prosecutions against researchers and academics, accusing them of failing to disclose dealings with China when submitting applications for grants.
In one of the most recent case to fall apart, prosecutors last month dropped all charges against a Massachusetts Institute of Technology scientist, Gang Chen.
"For 371 days, my family and I went through a living hell," Chen wrote in an essay published by The Boston Globe, referring to the length of time the charges against him were pending.
"While I am relieved that my ordeal is over, I am mindful that this terribly misguided China Initiative continues to bring unwarranted fear to the academic community and other scientists still face charges," Chen said in a statement.
Also in the crosshairs was Qing Wang, who spent two decades working at the Cleveland Clinic, where he was leading a research project into the genetic causes of heart disease, funded by more than $3.6 million in federal grants from the National Institutes of Health.
He was accused of failing to disclose that he was part of the "Thousand Talents" program, was dean of a Chinese university, and was receiving nearly half a million dollars in Chinese government grants for research that overlapped with his U.S.-funded work.
Prosecutors dropped the charges, but Wang is now in Shanghai, looking for work.
"They are creating such a fear in the scientific community," he told NBC News last year. "I'm pretty sure many people will move back to China. So that's actually they are doing a favor to the Chinese government."
Olsen said one of the concerns he heard during his review was that "we have undermined our ability to attract the best and the brightest to come to this country to conduct research, study, and teach. That's also a national security priority."
FBI Director Christopher Wray as been the federal government's most outspoken critic of China's spying. He said the FBI is launching an average of two counterintelligence investigations a day to keep up and has more than 2,000 such cases currently underway.
"There is no country that presents a broader, more severe threat to our innovation, our ideas, and our economic security than China does," Wray said.
Olsen said he agreed with Wray's overall assessment of the Chinese government's spying efforts but said other countries present different kinds of threats to U.S. national security.

Even as President Trump says he tested negative for coronavirus, the COVID-19 pandemic raises the fear that huge swaths of the executive branch or even Congress and the Supreme Court could also be disabled, forcing the implementation of "continuity of government" plans that include evacuating Washington and "devolving" leadership to second-tier officials in remote and quarantined locations.
But Coronavirus is also new territory, where the military itself is vulnerable and the disaster scenarios being contemplated including the possibility of widespread domestic violence as a result of food shortages are forcing planners to look at what are called "extraordinary circumstances".
Above-Top Secret contingency plans already exist for what the military is supposed to do if all the Constitutional successors are incapacitated. Standby orders were issued more than three weeks ago to ready these plans, not just to protect Washington but also to prepare for the possibility of some form of martial law.
According to new documents and interviews with military experts, the various plans - codenamed Octagon, Freejack and Zodiac - are the underground laws to ensure government continuity. They are so secret that under these extraordinary plans, "devolution" could circumvent the normal Constitutional provisions for government succession, and military commanders could be placed in control around America."….

Ergastulas of the getty
there was a kind of battle for the last great historical archives, Bettman archive, and a few other private archives in the business of licensing rare historical photos to scholars, publishers, news media and such.
Kind of a moribund business, but a real consolidation battle took place twenty years ago as various satanist entities sought to buy and control the last few big independent historical photo archives.
Who controls the past controls the future, they say, and in this case the getty Museum on the acropolis overlooking Los Angeles ended up in control of the majority mankind's photographic history. The getty Archive.
https://www.getty.edu/research/tools/photo/
Some anons believe the huge underground research complex on the ridge of the Santa Monicas is connected to the getty Villa a few miles away. The villa is former residence of J Paul getty, at one time recognized as the world's richest man with an insatiable appetite for underage sexual slaves.
The getty Villa, overlooking the Pacific Ocean is a truly Roman Imperial retreat, a duplicate of one build by the old pedo himself. And for some time, "The money card" what is believed to be a painting of Cosimo Medici hung there.
It is the dead hand of J Paul getty that controls the greatest historical photographic archive in the world. His heirs, assigns and minions, the nightcrawlers he blessed with his billions in return for continuing the cult mission.
The past has a way of warping the present and in the hands of the cult, and persons and events appears and disappear.
There was a fire on the hill beside the getty a few years back and some speculated about an MI intervention at that time. Some thought the old man had slave dungeons, ergastulas, down there, because he had every other thing a Roman of Imperial rank would have at a country palace. An Amphitheater for instance. Suitable for trying out MK Ultra musicals.

'Black Fungus' Is Appearing in People with COVID-19: What to Know
A rare type of fungal infection has been reported in people with COVID-19 in India. Jit Chattopadhyay/SOPA Images/LightRocket via getty Images
A typically rare fungal infection called mucormycosis has surged in India recently, primarily affecting people recovering from COVID-19.
Experts say this type of fungal infection is extremely rare and that it may be affecting people whose immune systems have been damaged by the coronavirus.
Experts say the use of steroid drugs in these patients may partially explain some of the surge, while the immune-compromised state of COVID-19 patients could explain others.
All data and statistics are based on publicly available data at the time of publication. Some information may be out of date. Visit our coronavirus hub and follow our live updates page for the most recent information on the COVID-19 pandemic.
Even as India struggles to contain a deadly surge of COVID-19, doctors are now reporting cases of a rare infection called the "black fungus," occurring among people recovering from the disease.
The fungal infection is increasingly being seen in vulnerable patients in India, as the country's health system struggles to save lives during the pandemic.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)Trusted Source, this black fungus infection is called mucormycosis and is caused by a group of molds called mucormycetesTrusted Source that typically live in soil and decaying organic matter.
The infection can be life threatening and has a mortality rate between 46-96 percent depending on severity.
What to know about mucormycosis
"Mucormycosis is a rare, invasive, fungal opportunistic infection that causes serious, sometimes fatal disease," Dr. K.C. Rondello, epidemiologist and special adviser to the Office of University Health and Wellness at Adelphi University, told Healthline.
He explained that those most at risk for mucormycosis have compromised immune systems that make them susceptible to fungal and other opportunistic infections.
"This includes individuals who are currently fighting or have recently recovered from COVID-19 disease," said Rondello.
Over the last 10 years, doctors have only seen a handful of mucormycosis cases in India, reported USA Today.
This past month, however, tens of thousands of cases have been reported, Dr. Bhakti Hansoti, associate professor in the department of emergency medicine and international health at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, told USA today.
"We've seen this skyrocket in recent weeks," she said. "It consumes a lot of resources especially during this pandemic right now in India where healthcare resources are stretched at the limit."
Symptoms of mucormycosis
Mucormycosis can affect different parts of the body, showing different sets of symptoms, according to the CDCTrusted Source.
If the infection grows in the sinuses and brain (rhinocerebral mucormycosisTrusted Source), symptoms include fever, one-sided facial swelling, headache, and nasal or sinus congestion.
If your lungs are affected by the fungus, you can experience cough, chest pain, and shortness of breath.
When mucormycosis attacks the digestive system, you may experience abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting, and gastrointestinal bleeding.
"It's an environmental mold, which once it infects you, is very morbid and has a high mortality," said Dr. Eric Cioe-Pe?a, director of Global Health at Northwell Health in New York. "Because the infection is so rare, the exact mortality rate isn't clear. But researchers estimate that overall, 54 percent of people with mucormycosis die."
He added that people with COVID-19 theoretically could be at higher risk due to an immune reaction, or inflammation locally in the sinus tract. Cioe-Pe?a confirmed the fungus isn't normally contagious.
According to Bhayani, you can contract the fungus by inhaling the mold spores or when you come into contact with them in things like soil, rotting produce or bread, or compost piles.
"Mucormycosis is normally not spread person to person, but is found in the environment," he said. "However, due to the level of spread, it's too early to say how this is spreading."

King Charles' alleged 'sausage fingers' roasted mercilessly online
September 12, 2022
"Game of Thrones" wasn't the first time they destroyed the Hand of the King.
Amid widespread speculation, a doctor is weighing in on the oft-mocked photos of King Charles III's alleged swollen-red "sausage fingers" currently going viral on Twitter. The royal's Jimmy Dean-esque digits have been ridiculed for years, but recently blew up after the monarch ascended the throne following the death of his mother Queen Elizabeth II.
"A reminder that these are King Charles III's fingers," read one of the many "Chuck roasts," along with a picture of the royal's hands looking crimson and bloated like Hellboy's.
Another troll quipped, "Whoever can pull that ring off his finger will become the next king like Arthur with that sword in the stone."
"I swear to god if I see Prince Charles fingers on this site one more time," snarked another Twitter wit alongside a pic of bright red hot dogs. Interestingly, the king referred to himself as "sausage fingers" in a letter to a pal before Prince William was born.
King Charles III's alleged "sausage fingers" are currently going viral on Twitter.
King Charles III - then Prince Charles - holds the queen's speech in his hands after reading it in the House of Lords during the state opening of Parliament on May 10, 2022, in London.

Dr. Gareth Nye, senior lecturer at the University of Chester, has since weighed in on what King Charles' vermillion mitts could mean for his health.
The doc explained that while "loads of conditions" could cause bloated fingers, some afflictions were more likely than others such as oedema or fluid retention.
"Oedema is a condition where the body starts to retain fluids in the limbs, normally the legs and ankles but also in the fingers, which causes them to swell," Dr. Nye told the Daily Star. "Oedema is a common condition and mostly affects people over the age of 65 as the ability for fluid control is restricted."
He added, "To see if this is the cause, pressing the swollen area for about 15 seconds would cause a depression in the area."

Edema could be heart issues too, they prescribe a lot of Lasix to treat the fluid retention and tell patients to limit their fluid intake.

How Adam Schiff Rode The Resistance to Political Riches
The California Democrat has raised tens of millions of dollars since 2016

Susannah Luthi
January 23, 2023
Rep. Adam Schiff (D., Calif.) wants voters to think he's a selfless patriot who risked his career and lost his committee assignments to hold former president Donald Trump accountable.
But his financial records tell a different story: that of a relatively unknown congressman who hitched himself to the "Resistance" bandwagon and milked tens of millions of dollars from donors across the country.
A Washington Free Beacon review of Schiff's financial disclosures shows that the California Democrat ramped up fundraising efforts just as he began his quest to impeach Trump. Schiff, who spent just $134,000 on fundraising in 2016, by 2018 poured nearly $2 million into ads urging supporters to "chip in" to help with his investigations into Trump's alleged dirty dealings.
But these donations didn't go toward oversight efforts, which are funded by congressional committees. Instead, they went right into Schiff's campaign coffers, which now hold $21 million. Schiff, who has represented his deep-blue Los Angeles district since 2001, won 10 of his 11 elections without such a massive war chest. But the money could soon come in handy.
Schiff is widely believed to be eyeing Sen. Dianne Feinstein's (D., Calif.) Senate seat, in what will likely be a contentious Democratic primary. Schiff's fellow California progressive Rep. Katie Porter (D.) has already announced her intention to run in 2024 to replace Feinstein, who has yet to announce her retirement. Winning the nomination will require cash, fundraising chops, and name recognition. Thanks to his tussle with Trump, Schiff now has all three.
In 2016, Schiff had little national name recognition and just $2.1 million on hand. But as the ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee, he was in a prime position to boost his profile as rumors began to swirl about the then-president-elect's alleged ties to Russia.
In early March 2017, Schiff started hinting to reporters that he had seen evidence of Russian interference in the 2016 election. The New Yorker soon dubbed him an "unlikely liberal hero" who was "ready to investigate Trump." By the end of the month, Schiff's name was splashed across headlines, and the congressman was a fixture on cable news.
On April 6, 2017, the Los Angeles Times declared that Schiff's "aggressive role in the Trump-Russia investigation" made him the "hottest commodity" in California politics. On April 14, his campaign placed a $25,000 web ad buy, its largest to date.
Thus began a cycle in which Schiff would follow a media blitz with a massive fundraising push. At the height of Russiagate fever, Schiff spent tens of thousands of dollars on social media ads timed to press leaks.

US stockpile stuck with 63 million doses of hydroxychloroquine
June 17, 2020
The federal government is stuck with 63 million doses of hydroxychloroquine now that the US Food and Drug Administration has revoked permission for the drug to be distributed to treat coronavirus patients.
The government started stockpiling donated hydroxychloroquine in late March, after President Trump touted it as "very encouraging" and "very powerful" and a "game-changer."
But Monday, the FDA revoked its emergency use authorization to use the drug to treat Covid-19, saying there was "no reason to believe" the drug was effective against the virus, and that it increased the risk of side effects, including heart problems.
That leaves the Strategic National Stockpile with 63 million doses of hydroxychloroquine, plus another 2 million doses of chloroquine, a related drug donated by Bayer, according to Carol Danko, a spokesperson for the US Department of Health and Human Services.

FDA revokes authorization of drug Trump touted
Many public health experts point to all of this as an unfortunate chapter in the history of the pandemic thus far.
"Nationally, we put a great emphasis on one drug, hydroxychloroquine," said David Holtgrave, the dean of the School of Public Health at the University at Albany, who co-authored a study of the drug as a treatment for coronavirus. "I worry that history will judge this as having over-invested in one treatment pathway as opposed to looking more broadly at a larger number of treatment candidates."
Before the FDA revoked its authorization, the stockpile had already distributed 31 million doses. Novartis and Mylan donated doses of the drug to the stockpile.
"HHS is working with the companies that donated the product to determine the available options for the product that remains in the Strategic National Stockpile," Danko wrote in a statement to CNN.
Hydroxychloroquine has been used for many years to treat diseases such as malaria, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus. After President Trump started touting hydroxychloroquine as a treatment for Covid-19, patients with those illnesses reported having trouble finding the drug.
Last month, FDA Commissioner Dr. Stephen Hahn wrote that his agency's decision to authorize hydroxychloroquine in March "was based on evaluation of the EUA criteria and the scientific evidence available at that time."

Exclusive: AWOL Navy SEAL Killed Fighting In Ukraine

A former American Navy SEAL was killed this week during Russia's assault on eastern Ukraine while fighting alongside Ukrainian forces, a Navy official tells TIME.
Daniel W. Swift, a Navy Special Warfare Operator First Class who had gone AWOL, died Jan. 18 after suffering injuries with a unit under attack by Russia, the official said.
The Navy confirmed that Swift has been in "an active deserter status since March 11, 2019," but did not provide any additional information. It wasn't yet known how long Swift was in Ukraine and why he was fighting there.
Swift, who is from Oregon, first enlisted in 2005, according to his releasable service records obtained by TIME. The records don't detail any of his deployments or SEAL teams he may have served on. They list assignments with a Naval Special Warfare "Cold Weather Detachment" out of Kodiak, Ak. in 2007 and separate stints with two "West Coast-based Special Warfare Unit(s)" from July 2007 to January 2014. Beginning in August 2017, Swift was with a "West Coast Special Warfare Unit."
Special operations forces, like Navy SEALs, conduct dangerous and secret missions throughout the world. Swift's records list several awards that imply combat deployments, including an Iraq Campaign Medal, an Afghanistan Campaign Medal, a Global War on Terrorism Expeditionary Medal and a Legion of Merit. But the records do not provide any additional information related to Swift's 2019 classification as an "active deserter," which caused him to lose his status as a Navy SEAL.

The Doria, Pamphilj, Landi and Aldobrandini families have become united through marriage and descent under the simplified surname Doria Pamphilj (which is now extinct since the death of Princess Orietta Doria Pamphlij in 2000). The Aldobrandini family palazzo and its collections of works of art and furnishings is now the Doria Pamphilj Gallery in Rome.
The family name lives on, however, via a branch of the Borghese family, descended from the marriage of Olimpia Aldobrandini with Prince Paolo Borghese in the 17th century. This line is descended from Don Camillo Borghese, Prince Aldobrandini (1816-1902), a leading member of the soi-disant Black Nobility, who in turn was the younger brother of the then Prince Borghese and head of that family.Princess Olimpia Anna Aldobrandini, also a non-lineal descendant of Napoleon on her mother's side, married into the Rothschild family.[1]

Convicted Murderer on Death Row Dies After Choking on Her Dinner

A Japanese woman awaiting execution for drugging and drowning two men has died after choking on her own dinner, the country's justice ministry said Sunday.
Miyuki Ueta, a former bar worker, was eating in her cell on Saturday afternoon when she began to choke. Workers at the detention center, located in the southwestern prefecture of Hiroshima, tried to pull food out of the 49-year-old's mouth, but she had already lost consciousness, Japanese national broadcaster NHK reported.
Ueta was sent to the hospital but was confirmed dead less than three hours later. She died of suffocation, the Japanese ministry of justice said.
Ueta had a near miss four days before her death, when she also choked on her food and was rushed to hospital. She survived and was returned to the detention center.
Ueta was sentenced in 2012 to death after being found guilty of killing two men she owed money to in 2009 in Tottori prefecture, on Japan's west coast. She maintained her innocence and appealed her case, but the judge upheld her death sentence in 2017.
Capital punishment remains legal in Japan and much of the rest of Asia. In Japan, prosecutors usually seek the death penalty in cases of multiple homicides or particularly egregious murders. Following Ueta's death, there are now 105 people on death row in Japan.
The death penalty is broadly accepted in Japan, although international rights groups have condemned the country's practice of hanging prisoners with just a few hours' notice. Capital punishment abolitionists point to cases of wrongful convictions in which innocent people have been put on death row.

Calls Grow for a Christmas Truce in Ukraine
Inspired by the Christmas Truce of 1914, more than 1,000 faith leaders are urging the United States to use diplomatic channels to seek a cessation of violence in Ukraine.
By John Nichols

Fifty-three years ago this month, as US troops were fighting in Vietnam, John Lennon and Yoko Ono paid for billboards in cities across the United States that declared, "WAR IS OVER! If You Want It-Happy Christmas from John & Yoko." The pair would continue their anti-war activism in the years that followed, eventually releasing the 1971 single "Happy Xmas (War Is Over)," which has since become something of a holiday standard with its enduring message that peace is always more possible than the presidents and the prime ministers, the media moguls and the war profiteers, would have us believe.
The desire for peace is sometimes so strong that it can forestall conflict, or even bring a brief cessation of violence in the midst of a war. This is one of the reasons why the hope for a Christmas Truce in Ukraine persists, even as the fighting continues amid the rapid approach of the holiday.
More than 1,000 faith leaders, representing every major religious tradition in the United States and around the world, have signed onto a call for a temporary ceasefire in Ukraine.
They recognize the wisdom of the Rev. Dr. William Barber II, who planned to devote his Christmas Eve sermon to a moral call for a Christmas Truce. And of Medea Benjamin, a cofounder of the peace group CodePink, who reminds us, "Negotiation is not a euphemism for capitulation, nor is it a rationalization of [Russian President Vladimir] Putin's aggression. It is simply a recognition that the end of this war cannot be achieved by more war. Any prospect for a pause in hostilities should be acted on."
CodePink joined with the Fellowship of Reconciliation USA, the National Council of Elders, and the Peace in Ukraine Coalition to initiate the call for a Christmas Truce. The coalition is encouraging the Biden administration to take the lead in seeking a negotiated settlement-and the groups suggest that a Christmas Truce could serve as a place of beginning for the process of ending the war.
"As people of faith and conscience, believing in the sanctity of all life on this planet, we call for a Christmas Truce in Ukraine. In the spirit of the truce that occurred in 1914 during the First World War, we urge our government to take a leadership role in bringing the war in Ukraine to an end through supporting calls for a ceasefire and negotiated settlement, before the conflict results in a nuclear war that could devastate the world's ecosystems and annihilate all of God's creation," reads the statement. The list of prominent religious and a social justice leaders who have signed on includes the Rev. Barber, Rev. Jesse Jackson, Dr. Cornel West, the Rev. Liz Theoharis of the Kairos Center for Religion, Mary Novak of the NETWORK Lobby for Catholic Social Justice, the Rev. Jim Wallis of the Georgetown Center on Faith and Justice, Rabbi Arthur Waskow of the Jewish Renewal movement, Dr. James Zogby of the Arab American Institute, Thay Phap An of the Plum Village Buddhist community, and the Rev. Wesley Granberg-Michaelson of the Reformed Church in America.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, who on Wednesday visited Washington and addressed the US Congress, has spoken in recent weeks about the Christmas season as a time for dialing down tensions. "The holidays are ahead, celebrated by billions of people around the world: Christmas of the Gregorian calendar, New Year, Christmas of the Julian calendar," he told a G7 gathering on December 12. "This is the time when normal people think about peace, not about aggression. I offer Russia the opportunity to at least try to demonstrate that they can abandon the way of aggression. It would be a right step to start withdrawing troops from internationally recognized borders of Ukraine this Christmas."

The devious art of lying by telling the truth
(Image credit: getty Images)
It is not always easy to tell when someone is lying (Credit: getty Images)
By Melissa Hogenboom
15th November 2017
The line between truth and lies is becoming ever murkier, finds Melissa Hogenboom. There's even a word for a very different form of lying.
I
It is no secret that politicians often lie, but consider this ?- they can do so simply by telling the truth. Confused?
That statement becomes clearer when you realise that we've probably all done it. A classic example might be if your mum asks if you've finished your homework and you respond: "I've written an essay on Tennessee Williams for my English class." This may be true, but it doesn't actually answer the question about whether your homework was done. That essay could have been written long ago and you have misled your poor mother with a truthful statement. You might not have even started your homework yet.?
Misleading by "telling the truth" is so pervasive in daily life that a new term has recently been employed?by psychologists to describe it: paltering. That it is so widespread in society now gives us more insight into the grey area between truth and lies, and perhaps even why we lie at all.

Vice President Kamala Harris (Photo by SAUL LOEB/AFP via getty Images)
(CNSNews.com) - During a "conversation on climate" at the University of Michigan on Thursday, Vice President Kamala Harris discussed global "equity" as it applies to climate change the "interconnection between nations" giving a geography lesson as she spoke about a "moment…about great momentum."
"So, for example, I convened - and I've convened now, at least three times - a group that has their acronym, CARICOM," Harris said.
"It is the Caribbean nations - island nations in the Western Hemisphere; that is where the Caribbean is. We are also in the Western Hemisphere; they are our neighbors. And to use a colloquial kind of expression, you know, 'We sneeze, and they catch a cold.'
Harris is known for repeating the same word multiple times in the same sentence, and she did not disappoint in Thursday's conversation:
"How are you thinking about this moment?" asked Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm, who accompanied Harris to Michigan:
Harris said she's "really excited" about the climate change movement: "I think of this moment as a moment that is about great momentum, inspired by, yes, optimism; inspired by a crisis, no doubt; but inspired by also our collective ability to see what can be unburdened by what has been. And that's critically important…"
In response to another question "How has your life experience shaped the way you approach work on climate?" Vice President Harris explained the difference between "equity" and "equality."
She responded that all of the Biden administration's work "has been fueled by the importance of equity, which is a big - there's a big difference between equality and equity. Right?" she asked.
"So, equality, well everyone should get the same amount; that sounds right. But if the point of it is that so that the outcome will be fair, it doesn't take into account that not everybody starts out on the same base. Right.
"So, equity is for my life work, and for our collective work and responsibility, a big issue…And in order for us to address and achieve equitable outcomes, we also have to be candid and clear about history, which is often, for some people, difficult to hear but must be spoken…"

Q Research General #22234: Rolling Slowly Into the Night Edition
satanists love the art, museum, foundation business - for good reason. Art can have any assigned value. An art market can be created overnight in a previously unknown artist like Keith Haring. This makes art/museums antiquities a perfect way to move money around, while, at the same time, promoting inventory or stock-in-trade, art, as a store of long-term value.
A painting is worth what you say it is if you're the getty Museum, the Hammer, the Broad, the Norval, the Huntington or the whatever-cult-tycoon is pretending philanthropy and laughing at us as we reverently troop through their art gallery front operation. There's another good, valid and unholy reason satanic cult con artists like to use art galleries foundations and museum cover structures as operational fronts.
In the case of *art* we've been POWERFULLY conditioned never to seriously question art. Anyone who says "my kid could do that- " is culturally defined as an idiot. Only an ignoramus questions art. We've been taught this in movies and sitcoms, we've been told a hundred ways, a thousand times: only vulgar and uneducated people criticize art. Philistines. Prudes. Hicks. Yokels. Furthermore, we are taught that art is a specialist area, and if we aren't specialists or insiders, we couldn't possibly have anything worthwhile to say and we ought keep our crude thoughts to ourselves and our boorish mouths shut around what we don't understand; because art is sacrosanct; the sacred self-expression of the individual.
Decades of this powerful conditioning allowed Pedosta's fat brother Tony to pose for a multi-page spread in a glitzy DC magazine with his daemonic sculpture of a gilded homosexual torture victim and with pictures of abused children in bizarre ritual locations. ART. The same conditioning protects Marina Abramovic and the crowd of *stars" and *celebrities" photographed eating an *art* corpse soaked in honey at an *art* event. It's ART. The pedovores are rightfully confident in the powers of our conditioning to protect them that they licensed photos of themselves with forks stuck into the honeyed *art* corpse to be published in *art* & fashion magazines, blogs and supermarket tabloids. The honeyed corpse is a gnostic occult ritual. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mellified_man
Why do satanist pedovores parade their pathology in front of us? When we see Tony Pedosta, John "Skippy" Pedosta's brother's sculpture we do not understand consciously what we are seeing is a gold leaf covered model Dahmer's homosexual torture victim. What effect does seeing something we don't consciously understand or necessarily recall having seen have on us?
A lot. This is the "secret" of the effectiveness subliminal and subsonic embed programming. Words and images we don't know that we've seen are perceived by the unconscious component of our minds. We know this because tests using subliminal embeds not consciously seen still raises our blood pressure, increases our pulse rate, and fMRI studies show that these unperceived influences activate portions of the brain associated with memory and emotional trauma. We *do* understand sex and death images unconsciously and traumatic images are retained in memory below the threshold of conscious awareness to influence our future behavior over time. Images of sex and violence in unconscious memory affect us like PTSD caused by real world exposure to rape, torture, child pornography or physical trauma.
Information War or IW operations target the unconscious mind. This "witchcraft" works best when we are *not* aware of images we've been exposed to subliminally or even that we are being targeted at all.
Sculpture of Dahmer's torture victim is presented at galleries and in publicity as fashionable, highly sought after, rare and precious work collected by knowledgeable, prominent people like Tony and John Podesta.
satanist's social subversion/sabotage operations exploit our strongest social conditioning. Art world institutions, galleries and foundations are trumpeted as the highest form of philanthropy and criticizing them is not just foolish it's ungrateful. Art is a satanist controlled industrial market. Since the days of Bernard Berenson art has been used to create and launder money to authenticate forgeries and to smuggle antiquities. Big art shows and exposition are used to emotionally prime us for coming events, to predispose individuals and groups to adopt preferred attitudes, practices or behaviors in a multitude of social dimensions; while, at the same, generating enormous profits, tax breaks and (through school outreach programs) providing access to children.

Q Research General #22216: Moar to “MAGA” than meets the eye Edition
Controversial Catholic cleric Pell dies aged 81
Cardinal George Pell, whose conviction on child abuse charges shocked the Catholic Church before being quashed, has died at 81.
The former Vatican treasurer is Australia's highest ranking Catholic cleric, and the most senior Church figure ever jailed for such offences.
He died of heart complications after hip surgery, Church officials say.
Cardinal Pell served as Archbishop of both Melbourne and Sydney before becoming one of the Pope's top aides.
He was summoned to Rome in 2014 to clean up the Vatican's finances, and was often described as the Church's third-ranked official.
But the cleric left his post in 2017, returning to Australia to face trial on child sex abuse charges.
A jury in 2018 found he had abused two boys while Archbishop of Melbourne in the 1990s.
Cardinal Pell, who always maintained his innocence, spent 13 months in prison before the High Court of Australia quashed the verdict in 2020.
However a civil lawsuit - launched by the father of a choirboy that prosecutors alleged Cardinal Pell abused - is still under way.
Meanwhile a landmark inquiry found that he knew of child sexual abuse by priests in Australia as early as the 1970s but failed to take action.
The Child Abuse Royal Commission ran for several years, interviewing thousands of people, and its findings relating to Cardinal Pell were released after his acquittal. Cardinal Pell denied the allegation, insisting it was "not supported by evidence".
Cardinal George Pell sued by father of choirboy
Archbishop of Melbourne Peter Comensoli paid tribute to Cardinal Pell as "a very significant and influential Church leader" while Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said his death would be a "shock to many".

Cardinal George Pell was Australia's highest ranking Catholic cleric
Former Prime Minister Tony Abbott - a Catholic - praised the cleric as a "saint for our times" and "an inspiration for the ages", saying the charges he'd faced were "a modern form of crucifixion".
But Steve Dimopoulos - a government minister in Cardinal Pell's home state of Victoria - was among those who voiced mixed feelings.
"Today would be a very difficult day for the cardinal's family and loved ones, but also very difficult for survivors and victims of child sexual abuse and their families and my thoughts are with them," he said.
The cardinal was a polarising figure, both in Australia and abroad, something he himself conceded.
Cardinal Pell: 'My views drove public against me'
He rose to prominence in the Church as a strong supporter of traditional Catholic values, often taking conservative views and advocating for priestly celibacy.
Speaking to the BBC in 2020, Cardinal Pell said there was "no doubt" that his "direct" style and traditional approach to issues such as abortion had driven parts of the public against him.
"The fact that I defend Christian teachings is irritating to a lot of people," he told BBC Radio 4's Sunday programme

The annals of the CIA need little primping from the high-wire prose of Nicholson Baker. In Baseless, Baker documents his maddening, enlightening and ultimately inconclusive quest, wielding America's largely toothless Freedom of Information Act, to wrest the truth from an obstructionist CIA about America's use-or-not biological weaponry in the early 1950s.
Years elapse after Baker files requests for documents; when copies materialise, they're ravaged by redactions that fillet them of meaning. Yet, picking over "potsherds" of text, he assembles an indelible portrait of institutional derangement.

Trump hints at third-party run in 2024

Former US President Donald Trump has signaled a possible disaster for the Republican Party, floating a suggestion that he might divide conservative votes in the 2024 presidential election by running as a third-party candidate.
Trump shared an article this week on his social media platform, Truth Social, that called for him to launch a third-party campaign if Republican leaders don't support his 2024 bid to reclaim the White House. The article, which was published on Tuesday in a conservative journal called American Greatness, argued that Republican leaders intend to defy the will of voters by blocking Trump from winning the party's presidential nomination.
"They'd rather lose an election to the Democrats, their brothers in crime, than win with Trump," the article's writer, Dan Gelernter, said. He argued that even though an establishment candidate would be better than electing a Democrat, caving into such expedient choices has allowed "the uniparty" to control and ruin the country….

4) McConnell Attacked Senate Republican Candidate Kelly Tshibaka
The McConnell-backed Senate Leadership Fund focused $9 million against conservative Senate candidate Kelly Tshibaka to protect 21-year incumbent and pro-impeachment Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK). The money helped Murkowski defeat Tshibaka in November.
In October, the Alaska Republican Party censured McConnell for attacking fellow Republican Tshibaka. Additionally, Alaskan Republican committees issued a public rebuke of McConnell's financial influence behind Murkowski.

5) McConnell Defunded Arizona Senate Candidate Blake Masters
In August, the Senate Leadership Fund suddenly canceled about $8 million worth of ad buys in Arizona. The cancellation hurt Republican candidate Blake Masters' chances of defeating Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ), who went on to defeat Masters by a narrow margin.

6) McConnell Helped Joe Biden Fuel Inflation
McConnell claimed in September that inflation was one of the top three greatest midterm issues. Yet he and the Washington, DC, establishment worked against conservatives to pass several massive spending bills that fueled soaring costs for American workers.
From 2021-2022, McConnell voted for the $1.7 trillion omnibus spending, $1.9 trillion for COVID-19 corporate bailout, and the $1.2 trillion "infrastructure" bills - all items of legislation that have fueled inflation, according to experts.
Experts projected soaring inflation would cost American families an extra $5,520 in 2022. A Heritage Foundation study showed Americans have lost $4,200 in annual income since Biden assumed office.
7) McConnell Remained Silent on Biden's Speech Attacking MAGA Movement=
In September, McConnell refused to condemn Biden's speech in Philadelphia that labeled "MAGA Republicans" a threat to the nation.
"MAGA Republicans do not respect the constitution," Biden claimed. "They do not believe in the rule of law ... they do not recognize the will of the people."
"They promote authoritarian leaders and they fan the flames of political violence that are a threat to our personal rights, to the pursuit of justice, to the rule of law, to the very soul of this country," he added.
Five days after the speech, McConnell's office refused to respond to Breitbart News's request for comment.

Top 9 Times Mitch McConnell Worked Against Conservatives in 2022
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) has worked against conservatives throughout his career. Here are nine times he betrayed, opposed, and contradicted conservatives in 2022:
1) McConnell Gave Ukraine $45 Billion in Aid
In December, McConnell worked with Democrats to pass the $1.7 trillion omnibus bill, which included $45 billion worth of American taxpayers' money designated for Ukraine. The $45 billion is in addition to the $66 billion of taxpayers' money American lawmakers had already approved for Ukraine.
"Providing assistance for Ukrainians to defeat the Russians is the number one priority for the United States right now according to most Republicans. That's sort of how we see the challenges confronting the country at the moment," McConnell claimed.

2) McConnell Pushed Omnibus Spending Bill, Despite House Republican Objections
In November, McConnell worked against House conservatives to push the $1.7 trillion omnibus bill through Congress. House Republicans objected to the omnibus bill because it provided funding for the whole fiscal year. As an alternative, House Republicans argued for a short term spending bill so they could have more input after the new Republican House majority took office in January.

3) McConnell Pulled PAC Ads Out of New Hampshire, Effectively Sabotaging GOP Candidate Don Bolduc
In October, the McConnell-backed Senate Leadership Fund pulled all its ads off television in New Hampshire. The decision ripped $5.6 million away from Republican Gen. Don Bolduc's candidacy and greatly helped incumbent Democrat Sen. Maggie Hassan (D-NH) win reelection.

Q Research General #22117: Q Year's Eve Edition
satanists love the art, museum, foundation business - for good reason. Art can have any assigned value. An art market can be created overnight in a previously unknown artist like Keith Haring. This makes art/museums antiquities a perfect way to move money around, while, at the same time, promoting inventory or stock-in-trade, art, as a store of long-term value.
A painting is worth what you say it is if you're the getty Museum, the Hammer, the Broad, the Norval, the Huntington or the whatever-cult-tycoon is pretending philanthropy and laughing at us as we reverently troop through their art gallery front operation. There's another good, valid and unholy reason satanic cult con artists like to use art galleries foundations and museum cover structures as operational fronts.
In the case of *art* we've been POWERFULLY conditioned never to seriously question art. Anyone who says "my kid could do that- " is culturally defined as an idiot. Only an ignoramus questions art. We've been taught this in movies and sitcoms, we've been told a hundred ways, a thousand times: only vulgar and uneducated people criticize art. Philistines. Prudes. Hicks. Yokels. Furthermore, we are taught that art is a specialist area, and if we aren't specialists or insiders, we couldn't possibly have anything worthwhile to say and we ought keep our crude thoughts to ourselves and our boorish mouths shut around what we don't understand; because art is sacrosanct; the sacred self-expression of the individual.
Decades of this powerful conditioning allowed Pedosta's fat brother Tony to pose for a multi-page spread in a glitzy DC magazine with his daemonic sculpture of a gilded homosexual torture victim and with pictures of abused children in bizarre ritual locations. ART. The same conditioning protects Marina Abramovic and the crowd of *stars" and *celebrities" photographed eating an *art* corpse soaked in honey at an *art* event. It's ART. The pedovores are rightfully confident in the powers of our conditioning to protect them that they licensed photos of themselves with forks stuck into the honeyed *art* corpse to be published in *art* & fashion magazines, blogs and supermarket tabloids. The honeyed corpse is a gnostic occult ritual. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mellified_man
Why do satanist pedovores parade their pathology in front of us? When we see Tony Pedosta, John "Skippy" Pedosta's brother's sculpture we do not understand consciously what we are seeing is a gold leaf covered model Dahmer's homosexual torture victim. What effect does seeing something we don't consciously understand or necessarily recall having seen have on us?
A lot. This is the "secret" of the effectiveness subliminal and subsonic embed programming. Words and images we don't know that we've seen are perceived by the unconscious component of our minds. We know this because tests using subliminal embeds not consciously seen still raises our blood pressure, increases our pulse rate, and fMRI studies show that these unperceived influences activate portions of the brain associated with memory and emotional trauma. We *do* understand sex and death images unconsciously and traumatic images are retained in memory below the threshold of conscious awareness to influence our future behavior over time. Images of sex and violence in unconscious memory affect us like PTSD caused by real world exposure to rape, torture, child pornography or physical trauma.
Information War or IW operations target the unconscious mind. This "witchcraft" works best when we are *not* aware of images we've been exposed to subliminally or even that we are being targeted at all.
Sculpture of Dahmer's torture victim is presented at galleries and in publicity as fashionable, highly sought after, rare and precious work collected by knowledgeable, prominent people like Tony and John Podesta.
satanist's social subversion/sabotage operations exploit our strongest social conditioning. Art world institutions, galleries and foundations are trumpeted as the highest form of philanthropy and criticizing them is not just foolish it's ungrateful. Art is a satanist controlled industrial market. Since the days of Bernard Berenson art has been used to create and launder money to authenticate forgeries and to smuggle antiquities. Big art shows and exposition are used to emotionally prime us for coming events, to predispose individuals and groups to adopt preferred attitudes, practices or behaviors in a multitude of social dimensions; while, at the same, generating enormous profits, tax breaks and (through school outreach programs) providing access to children.

Use of Genesis 1:19 in decode of Q1455
Hey fags, UK Bread fag wanting to share a decode attempt with you using a bible verse decode (Biblical) from Genesis 1:19 for Q1455 which mentions SIS 'good' agents and 'contact window [GOOD]'.
It almost seems hamfisted of Q to use the word 'good' so many times, then to say Biblical. Also, when converting first letters and acronyms in Q1455, I kept getting repeating numbers 1:19 and 99 (like mebbe CLAS 1-99)? And the fact that the word GOOD is spoken some 6 times, with one VERY GOOD, the chapter jumps out at you.
So- If you are familiar with the Londo pics digs you know LISAMI6.jpg was taken Christmas /- a day from open sauce pics from getty on Christmas 2013 which match buiding lights in the background.
The Genesis 1:19 verse says, "19 And there was evening, and there was morning -the fourth day." The fourth day of the week is Wednesday.
Q may be confirming our 25DEC2013 date for the pic posted on 2.16.18 (LONDON2837) because Christmas Day 2013 fell on a Wednesday(the fourth day).
Happy Hollandaise, Anons.

Colorado Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert has a response to criticism from Georgia Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene about Boebert's stance on potential GOP House Speaker Rep. Kevin McCarthy.
"I've been asked to explain MTG's belief in Jewish space lasers, why she showed up to a white supremacist's conference, and now why she's blindly following Kevin McCarthy and I'm not going to go there," Boebert told the Daily Caller.
"The only person who can answer for Marjorie's words and actions is Marjorie. Let me be very clear, I support President Trump. Period. President Trump is a friend and the leader of the Republican party," Boebert added.
Greene tweeted, "I've supported and donated to Lauren Boebert. President Trump has supported and donated to Lauren Boebert. Kevin McCarthy has supported and donated to Lauren Boebert. She just barely came through by 500 votes," in a thread criticizing Boebert.
"Lauren refuses to endorse President Trump, she refuses to support Kevin McCarthy, and she childishly threw me under the bus for a cheap sound bite," Greene added.
Boebert expressed her belief that there needs to be an "inside conversation" about McCarthy in response to a question about Greene's endorsement of McCarthy.

REP. MATT GAETZ: Republicans Need A Real Leader, Not Kevin McCarthy
OPINIONTop GOP Leaders Attend Republican Jewish Coalition Annual Meeting In Las Vegas

MATT GAETZ SERVES THE PEOPLE OF FLORIDA'S 1ST CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT IN THE UNITED STATES HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
December 21, 2022
12:25 PM ET
https://dailycaller.com/2022/12/21/opinion-republicans-need-a-real-leader-not-kevin-mccarthy-rep-matt-gaetz/
On Jan. 3rd, Republicans will start the process of choosing the House Speaker. The Speaker will be second in line for the presidency and the most powerful elected Republican.
The vote will take several ballots and possibly many days. After internal debate, Republicans will come together and pick the right leader for the role and that should not be Kevin McCarthy.
The McCarthy camp is spinning that Kevin must be accepted because "we have to avoid chaos." Chaos for who exactly? The special interests that are counting on McCarthy as their lapdog? I'm worried about chaos in the lives of my constituents. They live under the chaos of vaccine mandates pushed by Kevin's donors.
How well did Speaker Paul Ryan serve conservatives during then-President Donald Trump's first term? Are we glad that his tenure got off to a smooth start? It would have been better to have debated and chosen the right leader. Ryan, of course, supports McCarthy.
Every single Republican in Congress knows that Kevin does not actually believe anything. He has no ideology.
Some conservatives are using this fact to convince themselves that he is the right leader for the moment, as McCarthy is so weak he'll promise anything to anyone. As his mentor recently confessed, "He lies. He'll change the lie if necessary." McCarthy doesn't just respond to pressure from the Right.
During several important junctures in the past decade, we've seen Cavin' McCarthy.
On Ukraine, McCarthy voted yes for the $40 billion Ukraine aid package in May. He even pushed the Biden administration to further escalate conflict with Russia as he called for fighter jets to be transferred to Ukraine. During the Obama administration, McCarthy called for a no-fly zone to be enforced in Syria while the Russian military was operating there.
McCarthy even bought into the Russia hoax. In June 2016, McCarthy told other GOP congressmen, "There's two people I think Putin pays: [Rep. Dana] Rohrabacher and Trump." If he'll fall for the Russia hoax, you won't be surprised that McCarthy took a knee to Black Lives Matter when it mattered.
McCarthy joined Democrats last year to vote to remove historical monuments from the U.S. Capitol building. This is who Kevin is. He sticks his wet finger in the air to decide what position to take.
He told confidants that Trump should be censured or resign.
Leaders don't wait to see what the crowd wants. Leaders also don't take orders from lobbyists. McCarthy, who was previously honored as one of "the tech industry's best friends in Congress," opposes legislation that would break up companies like Amazon and Apple.
Would it surprise you if you found out that Jeff Miller, Kevin McCarthy's "confidant," was a registered lobbyist for Apple and Amazon? Apple and Amazon paid Miller's firm over $1 million to lobby Republican members against breaking up Big Tech.
Why exactly again are we supposed to coronate a man whose top adviser is a corporate lobbyist for the likes of Pfizer?
McCarthy also failed in his duties to deliver a resounding House majority. He told voters we would have a 20-seat plus majority and said that 2022 could be "one of the biggest election losses for Democrats."
Instead, we have a four-seat majority. It could be larger. McCarthy's campaign to falsely claim Joe Kent is a socialist played a role in Kent's tight 5,000 vote loss in Washington. Republican nominee Karoline Leavitt had McCarthy working against her up until her September primary. She fell just short in November.
In sports, when the team loses games it is supposed to win, the coach gets fired. In business, when earnings vastly miss projections, the CEO is replaced. In Republican politics, a promotion shouldn't be failure's chaser.
McCarthy knows he will end up failing Republicans and caving to liberals. That's why he opposes reinstating the motion to vacate, which was in place from 1801 to 2018. He wants to make sure conservative congressmen can't fix the problem once it's too late.

Omnibus Bill Gives DOJ $212.1M Increased Budget to Prosecute January 6 Prisoners
The $1.7 trillion omnibus bill will provide a larger budget for the Justice Department to prosecute January 6 prisoners, a House Appropriations Committee summary revealed Tuesday.
If the bill passes in the next few days, the DOJ's budget "to further support prosecutions related to the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol and domestic terrorism cases" will increase $212.1 million from current levels of the $2.63 billion annual budget.
The DOJ had previously asked Congress for only $34 million in its 2023 budget to fund 130 employees to investigate the 80 January 6 prisoners. Instead, the budget was expanded to $212.1 million.

"The cases are unprecedented in scale and [it] is expected to be among the most complex investigations prosecuted by the Department of Justice," the DOJ previously told Congress, claiming the funding was "necessary for the continued prosecutions of the growing number of cases related to this breach of the U.S. Capitol that has left the Department with an immense task of finding and charging those responsible for the attacks."

Victims of Terrorism Sue Biden Admin for Sending Taxpayer Aid to Palestinians
Hamas militants / getty ImagesAdam Kredo - December 20, 2022 3:10 pm
Victims of Palestinian terror attacks are suing the Biden administration for awarding nearly half a billion dollars in U.S. taxpayer funds to the Palestinian government, which allegedly uses these funds to pay convicted terrorists and their families.
The lawsuit, filed in federal court on Tuesday by American victims of Palestinian terror attacks and Rep. Ronny Jackson (R., Texas), alleges the Biden administration is in violation of federal law for resuming U.S. aid to the Palestinian government, according to a copy of the lawsuit exclusively obtained by the Washington Free Beacon. The Trump administration froze these funds due to the Palestinian government's financial support for terrorists as part of a program known as pay-to-slay.
The plaintiffs, led in the suit by the America First Legal Foundation, a watchdog group composed of lawyers, are asking the court to halt the Biden administration's Palestinian aid program over charges it is sustaining the pay-to-slay program in violation of a 2018 law known as the Taylor Force Act. That law-named after an American who was killed in 2016 by a Palestinian terrorist-bars all U.S. payments to the Palestinian government until it halts the terrorist payment program.
The State Department, which is named as a defendant in the suit, has formally determined in congressional notifications that the Palestinian government pays terrorists and incites violence against Israel. Now, a court must determine if U.S. aid payments should be stopped for violating federal law.
Force's family is also listed as a plaintiff in the case, along with Jackson and Sarri Singer, who survived a Palestinian suicide bombing in 2003.
"I am committed to doing everything in my power to get the accountability these families so richly deserve as we work to make sure U.S. taxpayer-funded terrorism never happens again," Jackson told the Free Beacon. "President Trump showed tremendous leadership when he signed the Taylor Force Act into law and ended taxpayer support for the Palestinian Authority's terrorist activities. Joe Biden's decision to reverse course knowing full well blood is on his hands as a result is unconscionable."

Sanela Diana Jenkins Sean Penn = HAITI HRO
On June 10, CORE-the global crisis-response organization founded by Sean Penn and Ann Lee-held its annual fundraising benefit at the Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles. The evening, which honored Dr. Sanjay Gupta, Frank Giustra, and Francesca Dutton, was hosted by Aida Rodriguez and treated guests to a live auction as well as performances from John Legend, Dakh Daughters, Josh Homme and Friends, and Let It Happen. Guests including President Bill Clinton, Sharon Stone, Balthazar getty, and Mark Burnett were also treated to a special video message from Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who encouraged guests to continue supporting his country's fight for freedom.
"When we held our last fundraising benefit in January 2020, we could not have predicted the places we would go or the many communities we'd support over the past two years," Ann Lee says. "We've been on the frontlines of COVID-19 response, activating a full scale campaign to provide over two million vaccinations, six million tests, and other critical resources to vulnerable communities in the U.S., Brazil, Haiti, and India. Having the benefit in LA has a new special meaning after the work we've done, from opening our first test site in March 2020 to operating the largest mass vaccination site in the US at Dodger Stadium. We've felt the pain of our fellow Angelenos, and we certainly saw it firsthand, which makes this moment that much more joyous that we can all be together in person."

The Met Police said the Health and Safety Executive has been informed about the incident
Two teenage boys had to be rescued when a "reverse bungee" ride failed at Winter Wonderland in London, leaving them suspended in a cage in the air.
The teenagers were in the ride at Hyde Park on Wednesday evening, when the Met Police said "one of the bungee cords attached to the cage had snapped".
But the amusement park industry's own regulatory safety scheme said there was a "technical issue" with a gear box.
Winter Wonderland said the boys had been brought down "safely".
It added the ride was closed while an investigation took place.
The Met Police said it had attended the scene, along with London Fire Brigade, but the cage had been lowered down before they arrived, the boys had left the scene and there were no reported injuries.
The Health and Safety Executive had been informed, a Met spokesperson said.
London Fire Brigade confirmed on Twitter it had attended the incident, but had not needed to respond.
However, the Amusement Device Inspection Procedures Scheme (ADIPS), which went to the site on Thursday morning, said in a statement released via Winter Wonderland: "We can confirm that the elastic cord and the steel wire rope supporting the reverse bungee gondola in which the public sit has not snapped or failed in any way."

Stephen "tWitch" Boss, the famed DJ on Ellen DeGeneres' talk show, is dead … and TMZ has learned it appears to be a suicide.
Law enforcement sources tell us Stephen's wife Allison Holker ran into an LAPD station Tuesday, and she was frantic because she said Stephen had left home without his car – something that was not like him at all.
We're told, a short time later around 11:15 AM paramedics got a call for a medical emergency at an L.A. hotel … and they found Stephen there, dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Holker tells TMZ, "Stephen lit up every room he stepped into. He valued family, friends and community above all else and leading with love and light was everything to him."
She continues, "He was the backbone of our family, the best husband and father, and an inspiration to his fans. To say he left a legacy would be an understatement, and his positive impact will continue to be felt. I am certain there won't be a day that goes by that we won't honor his memory."
Concluding, "Stephen, we love you, we miss you, and I will always save the last dance for you."
Stephen started DJing on Ellen's show in 2014, and was with her until the show ended in May 2022. He had become an executive producer on the show in 2020.
He really got his big break in showbiz in 2008, when he was runner-up on "So You Think Can Dance."
He went on to do some acting, landing several roles where he could show off his dance skills. Stephen played Jason in the 'Step Up' movie franchise, and he was also in "Magic Mike XXL."
The last time our photogs got him out around L.A. was back in September, and he talked to us about life after 'Ellen' … sounding pretty happy to have more time with his family.
Stephen hosted several reality shows, like "The Real Dirty Dancing" which aired on Fox earlier this year and he and Allison teamed up for "Disney's Fairy Tale Weddings" on Disney .
The couple met on the all-star season of 'SYTYCD" they were both competing and they got married in 2013. Allison and Stephen had just celebrated their 9-year anniversary this past Saturday.
They had 3 kids. Stephen was 40 years old.
RIP

This is what Donald Trump has unleashed upon the United States: an unprecedented act of domestic terrorism.
A violent mob incited by his false claims of a stolen election stormed the US Capitol, causing chaos, smashing windows, vandalizing offices, and forcing evacuations and lockdowns. Vice President Mike Pence, who was presiding over the counting of electoral votes, had to be rushed out of the Senate chamber by Secret Service agents. The Senate floor was cleared, and one pro-Trump terrorist claimed the podium and shouted, "Trump won that election." Reports emerged of explosions, tear gas, and gunshots. One person was shot and reported killed. An explosive device was apparently found. Senators and House members were told to shelter in place. Capitol police engaged in an armed standoff with Trump's brownshirts. It was outright rebellion, an attempt at an actual political coup. An outraged Sen. Mitt Romney exclaimed to a reporter, "This is what the president has caused today, this insurrection."
Trump owned this terrorism. He has whipped up his cultish followers with lies and conspiracy theories. At a rally on Wednesday morning, Trump told his supporters that the 2020 election was a grave crime and that Republicans and Democrats on the Hill were about to destroy American democracy by accepting the results. (During that event, Rudy Giuliani, Trump's lawyer and chief coup-stirrer, called for "trial by combat.") Trump directed his frenzied supporters toward the Capitol, where they breached police lines and took over the building. They shut down Congress. They terrorized lawmakers and staff, they fought with security forces, they broke American democracy.

A Libyan man accused of making the bomb which destroyed Pan Am flight 103 over Lockerbie 34 years ago is in United States custody, Scottish authorities have said.
The US announced charges against Abu Agila Masud two years ago, alleging that he played a key role in the bombing on 21 December, 1988.
The blast on board the Boeing 747 left 270 people dead.
It is the deadliest terrorist incident to have taken place on British soil.
All 259 passengers and crew on board the jumbo jet bound to New York from London died while another 11 people were killed in Lockerbie when wreckage destroyed their homes.

Last month it was reported that Masud had been kidnapped by a militia group in Libya, leading to speculation that he was going to be handed over to the American authorities to stand trial.
A US Justice Department spokesperson told the Reuters news agency that Masud would make an initial appearance in a federal court in Washington.
Five years ago he was serving a prison sentence in Libya for bomb-making.

EXCLUSIVE: McCarthy's Speaker Bid Struggles To Combat 'Unnecessary Chaos'
GOP Leadership Hold Press Conference On Biden's First Year
(Photo by Drew Angerer/getty Images)
MICHAEL GINSBERG AND HENRY RODGERS

Five House Republicans publicly oppose Kevin McCarthy's speaker bid, and several more have private doubts, imperiling the Californian's accession to the gavel.
In order to placate the doubters, McCarthy and his allies have commenced a substantial whipping operation, several sources with knowledge of his efforts told the Daily Caller. The Republican leader is prepared to offer the holdouts prized committee seats through the Steering Committee. However, McCarthy has labeled their most substantial demand, a strengthened motion to vacate the chair, a non-starter. Former House Freedom Caucus chairman Andy Biggs of Arizona announced Tuesday that he would also run for the position, underscoring McCarthy's failure to secure his right flank.
Biggs told the Daily Caller that McCarthy should "step aside" and if he does not there will be "unnecessary chaos" when the vote occurs.
"Kevin McCarthy needs to step aside and allow our conference to move forward without him at the helm. He does not have the votes to become the next House Speaker. Not accepting this fact will stymie Republican efforts to advance legislation and hold the Biden Administration accountable. His reluctance to step down will add unnecessary chaos on Jan. 3," Biggs said.
Other public "no's" on McCarthy include Virginia Rep. Bob Good, South Carolina Rep. Ralph Norman, Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz, and Montana Rep. Matt Rosendale. One House aide, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss internal conference dynamics and negotiations, told the Daily Caller that there are likely more "silent no's" who McCarthy needs to whip.
"Kevin McCarthy had never asked me for my vote," Gaetz told the Daily Caller.
Reps. Michael Cloud of Texas and Ken Buck of Colorado both told the Daily Caller that they have not committed to vote for or against McCarthy.
"Congress is broken. We need fundamental change in order to become a body that can represent the people over entrenched interest - and put our nation back on a path toward security and strength. I'm willing to vote for anyone who will present a clear vision and plan to accomplish this," Cloud said.
"I'm waiting to see how Kevin outlines his agenda," Buck added. "I think that it's really important that we get spending under control. We have $31 trillion in debt. Republicans should lead on that issue and we need a leader who is willing to stand up to the Biden administration and the excessive spending that we've had for the last three or four years."
McCarthy hopes that House Freedom Caucus (HFC) chairman Scott Perry of Pennsylvania will support his bid, and other members of HFC will follow, another House aide, also speaking on the condition of anonymity, told the Daily Caller. The Republican Steering Committee's assignment of committee memberships for the 118th Congress will be another key way for McCarthy to shore up support, the aide added. Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, a McCarthy supporter, is likely to be appointed to the Oversight and Government Reform Committee.

FBI 'Deeply Concerned' After Apple Says Nearly All iCloud Data Now Has End-to-End Encryption
In an overview of the new feature posted to the Apple website, the California-headquartered tech giant said its "Advanced Data Protection" optional setting will provide its users with the "highest level of cloud data security" and keep user data safe even in the event of a data breach in the cloud.
"If you choose to enable Advanced Data Protection, your trusted devices retain sole access to the encryption keys for the majority of your iCloud data, thereby protecting it using end-to-end encryption. Additional data protected includes iCloud Backup, Photos, Notes, and more," Apple said.
End-to-end encryption means that not even Apple can access the data, according to the company.
"If you lose access to your account, only you can recover this data, using your device passcode or password, recovery contact, or recovery key," the company said.
The new feature will be available on iOS 16.2, iPadOS 16.2, and macOS 13.1 for users in the United States by the end of the year, before rolling out to the rest of the world in early 2023, according to Apple.
Users can enable it by enrolling in two-factor authentication for their Apple ID and setting a password or passcode on their devices.

Apple Hands Over Account Data to FBI
Apple already protects 14 sensitive data categories via default end-to-end encryption. Data covered by Advanced Data Protection includes iCloud Backup, photos, notes, reminders, voice memos, and more.
The move marks a turning point for Apple. While its iMessage and Facetime communications services are fully encrypted end-to-end, the large majority of what users back up remotely via iCloud, such as photos and videos, are not.
Apple said on Wednesday that the new data protections represent the "next step in its ongoing effort to provide users with even stronger ways to protect their data."
However, the decision will also no doubt exacerbate ongoing tensions with law enforcement, including the FBI, which has requested that Apple hand over data from iPhones multiple times. Apple does so but only to an extent, according to the company, stopping short of handing over all of the data on the phone.
According to Apple's most recent transparency report, the tech giant handed over data to law enforcement 3,980 times from January to June 2021, with the majority of the user data tied to Brazil and the United States.
"Account requests generally seek information regarding customers' Apple ID accounts, such as account holder name and address and account connections to Apple services-for example, law enforcement investigations where an account may have been used unlawfully," according to Apple. "Account requests may also seek customers' content data, such as photos, email, iOS device backups, contacts or calendars."….

FBI Agent Faulted In FISA Report For 'Significant' Errors Has Finally Been Identified?as Stephen A. Somma
February 24, 2020
An FBI agent faulted for some of the most significant problems laid out in the Justice Department's inspector general report on FISA abuse against a Trump campaign associate has been identified.
The New York Times, citing people familiar with the FBI's Russia probe, identified Stephen A. Somma, a counterintelligence investigator who works out of the bureau's New York field office, as "Case Agent 1" from the inspector general's (IG) report.
The IG blasted the FBI for its handling of information used to obtain four surveillance orders against Carter Page, a former Trump campaign aide.
"Case Agent 1" is singled in the report as being "primarily responsible for some of the most significant errors and omissions in the FISA applications."
Somma was involved in multiple aspects of Crossfire Hurricane, the FBI counterintelligence investigation of the Trump campaign. (RELATED: FBI Agent Who Played 'Significant' Role In Surveillance Abuse Wore Several Hats In Trump Probe)
According to the IG report, he was the FBI agent who initially sought a surveillance warrant against Page. Somma pushed for a FISA warrant "almost immediately" after the FBI opened Crossfire Hurricane on July 31, 2016, the IG said.
Somma's initial request was rejected, but FBI lawyers later approved seeking a FISA warrant on Page after the bureau received information from former British spy Christopher Steele. In his dossier, Steele alleged that Page was a key player in the Trump campaign's "well-developed conspiracy of cooperation" with the Russian government to influence the 2016 election.

The IG report said the FBI failed to verify the allegations about Page before using Steele's information in FISA applications. The special counsel's investigation undercut the idea that Page or anyone on the Trump team worked with Russians.
Somma was in charge of verifying the accuracy of information included in the FISA applications. He was also the FBI handler for Stefan Halper, a former Cambridge professor who met with and secretly recorded Trump campaign aides Carter Page, Sam Clovis and George Papadopoulos.
The IG report said Somma failed to disclose potentially exculpatory information that Page and Papadopoulos told Halper. He also failed to disclose that the CIA told him on Aug. 15, 2016, that Page had been an "operational contact" for the agency years earlier.
Perhaps Somma's most egregious omission deals with an interview he conducted in January 2017 with Steele's primary source for information in the dossier.
According to the IG report, the Steele source, referred to as "Primary Sub-Source," told FBI agents that Steele misrepresented information attributed to him in the dossier, including about Page. The FBI and Justice Department failed to disclose the information in its final two applications for FISA orders on Page.
Largely because of the omission, the Justice Department has deemed the two orders to be invalid.
The IG report also said that "Case Agent 1" took part in five interviews with Page in March 2017.
The report says that Somma became Halper's handler in 2011?after the FBI temporarily terminated its relationship with the informant over concerns about his interactions with a counterintelligence target.
Months after Somma began working with Halper, the FBI agent visited Cambridge in November 2011 to speak at a seminar about the FBI's investigation into a Russian spy ring known as "The Illegals."
The FBI has declined comment on Somma.

Following a visit to Israel Maxwell said that he had traveled everywhere in the world and Israel was the only place where he felt at home. In Israel he found the faith he thought he had lost. Viewing himself as a savior of Israel’s ailing industries, he shrewdly bought ailing Israeli companies and turned them into successful enterprises. Some of the companies became covers for Mossad. Robert Maxwell traveled the world and peddled Promis, software the Israelis stole from Inslaw, the American company that developed the program. Promis could track data on any target subject by querying and integrating information from innumerable electronic databases, without requiring reprogramming. The theft took place when the Mossad’s Rafi Eitan traveled to the United States impersonating an assistant prosecutor in the Israeli Ministry of Justice in Tel Aviv and met with William Hamilton, the inventor of Promis, at Inslaw. After his meeting with Hamilton, Eitan immediately went to the Department of Justice, and, through serendipity, acquired a copy of Promis. Eiten then worked through former Mossad agent Ari Ben Menashe, who found Yahuda Ben-Hanan in California’s Silicon Valley to construct a back door to the program. This enabled the Mossad to monitor Promis and obtain the information the program developed as it worked for all who used it—friend and foe alike. With the help of former Texas Senator John Tower, Maxwell managed to sell the software to the Los Alamos Laboratories, thus making Israel’s Mossad privy to the innermost secrets of American atomic energy programs. When Promis was sold to Credit Suisse, Israel was able to follow the money flows from any government or business agency that used the bank.
