US lawmakers tell Apple, Google to be ready to remove TikTok from app stores Jan. 19

WASHINGTON, Dec 13 (Reuters) - The chair and top Democrat on a U.S. House of Representatives committee on China told the CEOs of Google-parent Alphabet (GOOGL.O), opens new tab and Apple (AAPL.O), opens new tab on Friday they must be ready to remove TikTok from their U.S. app stores on Jan. 19.

Last week, a U.S. federal appeals court upheld a law requiring China-based ByteDance to divest TikTok in the United States or face a ban. Representative John Moolenaar, a Republican and chair of the committee, and the top Democrat on the committee, Representative Raja Krishnamoorthi, separately urged TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew to sell the short-video app used by 170 million Americans.

"Congress has acted decisively to defend the national security of the United States and protect TikTok’s American users from the Chinese Communist Party. We urge TikTok to immediately execute a qualified divestiture," the lawmakers wrote.

Apple, Alphabet and TikTok did not immediately comment. On Monday, ByteDance and TikTok made an emergency bid to temporarily block the law pending a review by the U.S. Supreme Court.

The DOJ said on Wednesday if the ban takes effect on Jan. 19, it would "not directly prohibit the continued use of TikTok" by Apple or Google users who have already downloaded TikTok. But it conceded the prohibitions on providing support "will eventually be to render the application unworkable."

TikTok said in response on Thursday the law, absent a court order, means TikTok will disappear from mobile app stores on Jan. 19 and "be unavailable to the half of the country that does not already use the app." It warned ending support services will "cripple the platform in the United States and make it totally unusable."

ByteDance and TikTok noted President-elect Donald Trump has vowed to prevent a ban on TikTok.

Republican Senator Josh Hawley said in an interview he hopes ByteDance will sell TikTok because the law leaves no wiggle room. "The statute is what the statute is," Hawley said. "The main issue is it's subject to Chinese oversight, Beijing oversight - that's the problem."

Google says it accessed parallel universes with its new supercomputer

Google's quantum computing breakthrough on Monday has left the physicist who heads the project a believer in 'the idea that we live in a multiverse.'

'Willow,' the tech giant's new quantum chip, succeeded in solving a computational problem so complex it would have taken today's best super-computers an estimated 10 septillion years to solve it — vastly more than the age of our entire universe.

But Google said its new quantum computer solved the puzzle 'in under five minutes.'

Calling Willow's performance 'astonishing,' the leader and founder of Google Quantum AI team, physicist Hartmut Neven, said its high-speed result 'lends credence to the notion that quantum computation occurs in many parallel universes.'

Trainee firefighter who failed exam 'became a woman because the pass mark was lower' - and was successful

A trainee firefighter has been accused of jumping the queue to qualify after they failed to pass the physical exam as a man and then said they were changing gender to 'take advantage of lower pass marks' required by female candidates.

The candidate, known as David, initially failed to pass the exam as a man by not achieving a high enough score.

But shortly after receiving the news, it has been claimed the firefighter then announced they were changing gender.

According to the rules in Spain, a woman can qualify by achieving a lower score in the physical tests because of the strength differences between sexes.

It comes as Spain introduced its Trans Law last year, which allows anyone to legally change gender without medical evaluation or justification on psychological grounds.

The Times reported another candidate, Raul Asenjo, initially qualified to become a firefighter.

However, when David moved from 201st place to 101st in the ranking of candidates, Mr Asenjo was bumped down and no longer made the cut.

Now, the newspaper reported Mr Asenjo is considering taking legal action against Madrid Council which is responsible for recruitment.

Mr Asenjo, 21, claims he lost out on the chance to become a firefighter once David said they were changing sex.

Mr Asenjo said in a statement released to Spanish media: 'I was candidate 126, the last one in the list to qualify. However, I have been moved to position 127 so out of the running as the result of the allegedly unfair and fraudulent use of the rules by one of the candidates who has been moved from position 201 to 101.'

'This candidate has claimed his status as a woman with the sole purpose of benefiting from more flexible rules [for women] and as such they advance 100 people in the selection process.'

Mr Asenjo also claims before changing sex, David had been part of an anti-feminist misogynist group for Men Who Go Their Own Way — a community which advocates for men to separate themselves from women and society.

SYRIA: Greek Orthodox Christians beheaded, shot in the Valley of the Christians

Two Greek Orthodox Christians in Wadi al-Nasara (Valley of the Christians) were murdered in their home during a reported "burglary."

Samaan Satme and Helena Khashouf from the village al-Jamasliyye in Syria's Homs province were brutally murdered in their home.

Although the murder was initially reported as a burglary gone wrong, it later emerged that Samaan was beheaded and Helena shot, indicating that there were other motives.

Murdered on December 13, their funeral procession began the next day in the Church of Saint Simeon Stylites, Haba.

According to local reports, "random murders" in Homs and the coast continue, often fitting the pattern of assailants entering a house to murder the victims.

At the same time, a video is circulating on social media of a Lebanese Christian woman in Syria saying her brother living in Latakia with her mother was attacked by neighbours upon rebels' arrival, telling him: "You're Christians, leave the house, we don't want you here!"

Turkish-backed jihadist forces launched an offensive in northern Syria on November 27, and by the end of the month had captured Aleppo, Syria's largest city and commercial capital. As the rebels moved south, capturing Hama and Homs, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad was in Moscow and not Damascus, which was ultimately captured on December 8.

Mitsotakis to visit Beirut on Monday

Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis will visit Lebanon on Monday, December 13, he announced during the conference titled "Post-Junta Era 1974–2024: 50 Years of Greek Foreign Policy."

The trip to Beirut, Lebanon’s capital, was initially scheduled for December 6 but was postponed due to a malfunction in the government aircraft. As previously announced, the primary purpose of the visit is to support the reorganisation of Lebanon’s armed forces through technical assistance from Athens.

Mitsotakis is also scheduled to meet with his Lebanese counterpart, Najib Mikati and the Speaker of the Parliament, Nabih Berri. During these meetings, he is expected to reiterate Greece’s readiness to assist in strengthening Lebanon’s state institutions, including its armed forces.

Additionally, he is expected to engage with members of the Greek community in Lebanon.

Assad loots $250m of Syria’s cash into Moscow

Bashar al-Assad’s central bank airlifted about $250 million in cash to Moscow in a two-year period when the then Syrian dictator was indebted to the Kremlin for military support and his relatives were secretly buying assets in Russia.

Assad’s regime, while desperately short of foreign currency, flew banknotes weighing nearly two tonnes in $100 bills and €500 notes into Moscow’s Vnukovo airport to be deposited at sanctioned Russian banks between 2018 and 2019, according to records uncovered by the Financial Times.

The unusual transfers from Damascus underscore how Russia, a crucial ally to Assad that lent him military support to prolong his regime, became one of the most important destinations for Syria’s cash as western sanctions pushed it out of the financial system.

Opposition figures and western governments have accused Assad’s regime of looting Syria’s wealth and turning to criminal activity to finance the war and its own enrichment. The shipments of cash to Russia coincided with Syria becoming dependent on the Kremlin’s military support, including from Wagner group mercenaries, and Assad’s extended family embarking on a buying spree of luxury properties in Moscow.

David Schenker, who was US assistant secretary of state for near eastern affairs from 2019 to 2021, said the transfers were not surprising, given that the Assad regime regularly sent money out of the country for “a combination of securing their ill-gotten gains and Syria’s patrimony abroad”.

“The regime would have to bring their money abroad to a safe haven to be able to use it to procure the fine life … for the regime and its inner circle,” he said.

“Russia has been a haven to the Assad regime’s finances for years,” said Eyad Hamid, senior researcher at the Syrian Legal Development Programme, noting that Moscow became a “hub” for evading western sanctions imposed after Assad brutally put down an uprising in 2011.

Assad’s escape to Moscow as rebels closed in on Damascus has even enraged some former regime loyalists, who see it as proof of Assad’s overriding self-interest.

His shaky rule had been propped up by Iran and its proxy militant groups, which had intervened in 2012, and Russia, which brought its warplanes to bear down on what remained of the Syrian rebels and Islamist insurgents in 2015.

Syria’s relations with Moscow deepened dramatically as Russian military advisers bolstered Assad’s war effort and Russian companies became involved in Syria’s valuable phosphate supply chain. “The Syrian state could be paying the Russian state for a military intervention,” said Malik al-Abdeh, a London-based Syrian analyst.

The Assad regime moved bulk shipments of US and euro banknotes into Russia between March 2018 and September 2019.

Russian trade records from Import Genius, an export data service, show that on May 13th, 2019, an aircraft carrying $10 million in $100 bills sent on behalf of Assad’s central bank landed in Moscow’s Vnukovo airport.

In February 2019 the central bank flew in about €20 million in €500 notes. In total there were 21 flights from March 2018 to September 2019 carrying a declared value of more than $250 million.

There were no such cash transfers between Syria’s central bank and Russian banks before 2018, according to the records, which start in 2012.

A person familiar with Syrian central bank data said foreign reserves were “almost nothing” by 2018. But due to sanctions, the bank did have to make payments in cash, they added. It bought wheat from Russia and paid for money-printing services and “defence” expenses, the person said.

They added that the central bank would pay according to “what was available in the vault”. “When a country is completely surrounded and sanctioned, they have only cash,” the person added.

Russian records show that regular exports from Russia to Syria – such as shipments of secure paper and new Syrian banknotes from the Russian state-owned printing company Goznak, and consignments of replacement Russian military components for Syria’s ministry of defence – took place in the years before and after the large amount of banknotes were flown to Moscow.

But there is no record of the two Russian lenders that received the banknotes from Damascus in 2018 and 2019 taking any other shipments of bulk cash from Syria or any other country over a 10-year period.

Even with Syria’s state coffers wrecked by war, Assad and his close associates over the past six years seized personal control of critical parts of the country’s devastated economy, said people with insight into the regime’s workings.

Records show the cash delivered to Moscow in 2018 and 2019 was delivered to Russian Financial Corporation Bank, or RFK, a Russian lender based in Moscow controlled by Rosoboronexport, the Russian state arms export company.

The US Treasury sanctioned the bank this year for facilitating cash transfers, enabling “millions of dollars of illicit transactions, foreign currency transfers and sanctions evasion schemes for the benefit of the Syrian government”.

In March 2018 records show Syria’s central bank also shipped $2 million to another Russian bank, TsMR Bank, which has also been sanctioned by the US.

As Russian financial institutions were receiving cash from Syria, Assad’s other international backer, Iran, set up schemes to funnel hard currency to the beleaguered regime. Assad’s key money men took important positions in these companies, according to corporate records analysed by the FT.

Yassar Ibrahim, Assad’s closest economic adviser, is a shareholder in a Lebanese company called Hokoul SAL Offshore, alongside his sister Rana, who has also been sanctioned by the US.

Hokoul, according to the US Treasury, is directed by Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps-Quds Force and Lebanese militant group Hizbullah to move hundreds of millions of dollars “for the benefit of the brutal Assad regime”. Ibrahim’s role in the company has not previously been reported.

While the cordon of western sanctions forced the regime out of the dollar banking system, corporate records analysed by the FT show that key Assad lieutenants continued to move assets into Russia.

In 2019 the FT reported that Assad’s extended family had from 2013 bought at least 20 luxury apartments in Moscow using a complex series of companies and loan arrangements.

And as recently as May 2022 Iyad Makhlouf, Assad’s maternal cousin and a major in Syrian general intelligence, which allegedly monitored, oppressed and murdered citizens, established a property company in Moscow co-owned by his twin brother Ihab called Zevelis City, Russian corporate records show.

Iyad’s brother Rami Makhlouf was the regime’s most important businessman, at one point believed to control more than half of Syria’s economy through a web of companies including mobile phone network SyriaTel. But after Rami fell out of favour with the regime in 2020, Syrians with insight into the regime say Iyad and Ihab remained close to Bashar and his wife Asma.

Corporate filings show that Zevelis City was established by a female Russian employee of the US-sanctioned Syrian-Russian banker Mudalal Khoury, who has been accused by the US of facilitating large movements of money from Syria to Russia on behalf of the Assad regime.

Khoury appears to have played a pivotal role in embedding regime interests in Russia’s financial system, and in 2015 the US Treasury said Khoury “has had a long association with the Assad regime and represents regime business and financial interests in Russia”. – Financial Times

Sunday Talks – Incoming Nat Sec Advisor Michael Waltz Talks About Drones and Ukraine

December 15, 2024 | Sundance |

Incoming national security adviser Michael Waltz talks to Face the Nation with dramatic acting Margaret Brennan. The first part of the interview discusses drones, fears and “gaps in our security” according to Waltz.

Within the interview Brennan questions Waltz about Hungarian leader Viktor Orbán personally meeting with President Trump and carrying a potential message from Russian President Vladimir Putin.Waltz notes that Orban “clearly has a good relationship” with President Trump and that will be key to ending the war in Ukraine. WATCH:

https://youtu.be/vNedr8xrYEo

As National Security Advisor, Waltz likely won’t last a year. “Gaps in our capabilities,” is DC intel codespeak for more rules, regulations, control mechanisms and anti-freedom national security legislation is needed.

My Spidey sense indicates a CNN gig in his future. Waltz just gives off that ‘he will believe everything the IC tells him’ vibe.

Mike Waltz is married to Julia Nesheiwat, the sister of Surgeon General nominee Janette Nesheiwat.

Julia, who -like all other people who work in DC silos- has never taken a married name. Julia Nesheiwat was born in Carmel, New York, in 1975 to Jordanian Christian immigrants and raised in Umatilla, Florida. She has a BA from Stetson University, an MA from Georgetown, and a PhD from Tokyo Tech.

Julia Nesheiwat became a military intelligence officer. She received the Bronze Star Medal during Operation Enduring Freedom in Iraq. She departed the military as captain. Julia Nesheiwat served in several U.S. administrations. Under George W. Bush, Barack Obama, and Donald Trump, she held senior national security and economic policy positions. Her most notable role was as Trump’s 10th Homeland Security Advisor from 2020 to 2021. Her Bush administration posts included State Department seniority and Office of the Director of National Intelligence Policy Chief.

Suffice to say their bedroom conversations are likely Intel Community shop talk.

While it’s interesting that Congressman Mike Waltz was selected to be President Trump’s National Security Advisor,it’s actually Julia Nesheiwat that carries the curriculum vitae that seemingly qualifies her for the job.

This will be an interesting dynamic to watch unfold.

I suspect Waltz will be the first T-47 exit.. (Sundance is typically right, I agree because is approaching Russia and Ukraine with a misunderstanding that he gets from the military and IC agencies)

The Terrifying Discovery Outside a Trump Rally

On August 28, 2024, police were called to investigate suspicious bags discovered near an event center in La Crosse, WI, just a day before a scheduled rally by former President Donald Trump. The bags had been hidden in bushes outside the building and the person who found them initially thought little of them. However, upon examining the bags, the individual uncovered something deeply concerning.

Adorable seven-year-old girl 'killed by migrant' two months after he was released from jail (silence from BLM)

A Venezuelan migrant that could have been deported over two months ago was charged with a late-night drunk driving crash in Texas that killed a young girl.

Chacin, 41, was charged with intoxicated manslaughter, a felony punishable by at least two years in prison, for the December 1 crash in north Houston that killed seven-year-old Ivory Smith.

However, this was not the illegal migrant's first run-in with the law; Chacin had already spent 113 days in jail earlier this year for assaulting a family member.

Chacin was arrested for that assault in June and when he was released on September 24, he was put on an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) hold, court records showed.

However, those records also shockingly indicate that the ICE hold was lifted for some reason, allowing him to walk free - and then allegedly drive drunk.

DailyMail.com approached ICE for comment on why this release happened.

Fox 26 Houston, the outlet that broke this story, couldn't get an answer out of ICE's Houston office on what led the immigration hold being lifted.

The Houston division did however lodge an immigration detainer against Chacin with the Harris County Jail on December 4, three days after the crash that killed Ivory and seriously injured her mother.

However, the agency offered no additional information beyond that.

Andy Kahan, a crime victim advocate based in Houston, was outraged that ICE didn't immediately take custody of Chacin back in September.

'Why was that hold lifted when he discharged his sentence? If he had kept that hold on him, no ifs, ands or buts, you have a 7-year-old girl who would be alive today and a mother who wasn't seriously injured,' he told Fox 26.

Ivory's family said that her mother, Christina Quainoo, is out of the hospital and still recovering from her injuries.

The family released a statement to the media, which mourned Ivory and slammed the immigration system for failing 'to keep dangerous individuals off our streets'.

'It is with profound sadness that we acknowledge the heartbreaking loss of 7-year-old Ivory Giselle Smith. Her life, filled with innocence and joy, was taken far too soon due to the reckless actions of an individual who chose to drive under the influence,' the statement began.

'Ivory’s mother, Christina, continues to endure immense physical and emotional pain as she recovers from the devastating accident,' it continued.

'Also, Ivory's dad, Keion Smith, as he continues to get through the hours and days trying to be strong for the family.

'How can a system allow such leniency, where a person with such a record is given a chance to walk free and re-offend?'

The family also set up a GoFundMe page in the wake of the crash. The fundraiser has attracted more than 480 donations totaling over $31,000.

The family hopes to raise $35,000 to support Christina's road to recovery and their effort to get justice for Ivory.

Ivory's aunt, Sharonda Collins, told ABC13 that the mother and daughter were on their way back home when they were struck by Chacin's car.

Following the devastating accident, Collins said Christina will need to relearn to how to walk with physical therapy.

'It's always the person drinking and driving that walks away, and families are left with this. Laws need to change. I'm gonna fight to get those laws changed for Ivory,' Collins said.

The family reportedly didn't want Chacin to receive bond, but against their wishes, his bond was set at $150,000.

He is currently behind bars at the Harris County Jail awaiting his next court date. It is unclear if he has entered a plea at this time.

Based Senator Mike Lee Dunks All Over Warmongering RINO Liz Cheney With One of Her Old X Posts as Her Previous Tacky Words on J6 and Lee Come Back to Haunt Her

Warmongering Never-Trumper Liz Cheney may have gone into hiding since the election, but some old words of hers regarding J6 are coming back to haunt her, and we can thank Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) for this.

As Jim Hoft reported, Inspector General David Horowitz released his much-anticipated January 6 report on Thursday. It showed the DOJ admitting that 26 undercover operatives were working inside the crowd that fateful day.

Moreover, The DOJ admitted that 4 entered the US Capitol and 13 entered the restricted area. This is very likely inaccurate. Furthermore, they do not include the many dozens or hundreds of “cutouts” who were operating inside the enormous crowd that day.

The Gateway Pundit has previously reported on numerous confirmed intelligence operatives and “cutouts” who had infiltrated the Trump crowd on January 6, 2021.

Despite the omissions in the Inspector General’s report, it did at least disprove the lie that the FBI was not involved in J6.

Cheney was one of the most notorious figures in this gaslighting of Americans regarding the truth. As TGP readers know, Cheney reportedly suppressed critical evidence indicating that President Donald Trump had authorized National Guard troops to be on standby during the Capitol protest.

Her sole purpose was to use her position on the J6 Committee to try to have Trump thrown in prison.

Cheney also snapped at several conservative patriots, including Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) (often called Based Mike Lee), who dared to question the official narrative. One of her old tweets targeting Lee has returned to haunt her.

Back in November 2023, Cheney called Lee a “nutball conspiracy theorist” for questioning the FBI’s involvement in J6 after he mocked old, slanted footage of the event propagated by the Drive-By media.

Liz, we’ve seen footage like that a million times.

You made sure we saw that—and nothing else.

It’s the other stuff—what you deliberately hid from us—that we find so upsetting.

Nice try.

P.S. How many of these guys are feds? (As if you’d ever tell us). https://t.co/FryO0VdLdP

Now, he has received the last laugh as Cheney has gone into hiding. Last night, he pulled up this old post and dunked on her while taking a victory lap on J6.

“Liz Cheney called me a “nutball conspiracy theorist” for asking questions about FBI’s involvement on January 6th The DOJ Inspector General’s report confirmed that I had good reasons to ask these questions, which Christopher Wray repeatedly dodged,” he wrote.

Trump gets $15m in ABC News defamation case

ABC News has agreed to pay $15m (£12m) to US President-elect Donald Trump to settle a defamation lawsuit after its star anchor falsely said he had been found "liable for rape".

George Stephanopoulos made the statements repeatedly during an interview on 10 March this year while challenging a congresswoman about her support for Trump.

A jury in a civil case last year determined Trump was liable for "sexual abuse", which has a specific definition under New York law.

As part of Saturday's settlement, first reported by Fox News Digital, ABC also published an editor's note expressing its "regret" for the statements by Stephanopoulos.

According to the settlement, ABC News will pay $15m as a charitable contribution to a "Presidential foundation and museum to be established by or for Plaintiff, as Presidents of the United States of America have established in the past".

The $15m will go towards Trump's future presidential library, US media reported.

The network also agreed to pay $1m towards Trump's legal fees.

Under the settlement, the network will post an editor's note to the bottom of its 10 March 2024 online news article about the story.

It will say: "ABC News and George Stephanopoulos regret statements regarding President Donald J Trump made during an interview by George Stephanopoulos with Rep. Nancy Mace on ABC's This Week on March 10, 2024."

An ABC News spokesperson said in a statement the company was "pleased that the parties have reached an agreement to dismiss the lawsuit on the terms in the court filing".

In 2023, a New York civil court found Trump sexually abused E Jean Carroll in a dressing room at a department store in 1996. He was also found guilty of defaming the magazine columnist.

Judge Lewis Kaplan said the jury's conclusion was that Ms Carroll had failed to prove that Trump raped her "within the narrow, technical meaning of a particular section of the New York Penal Law".

Judge Kaplan noted that the definition of rape was "far narrower" than how rape is defined in common modern parlance, in some dictionaries and in criminal statutes elsewhere.

In a separate case, also presided over by the same judge, a jury ordered Trump to pay $83.3m to Ms Carroll for additional defamatory statements.

Trump is appealing against both verdicts.

During the 10 March broadcast, Stephanopoulos asked South Carolina Republican congresswoman Nancy Mace how she could endorse Trump.

The anchor falsely said "judges and two separate juries have found him liable for rape".

Stephanopoulos repeated the claim 10 times throughout the broadcast.

Ahead of the ruling, a federal magistrate judge had ordered Trump and Stephanopoulos to give sworn evidence at depositions next week.

Trump has also sued CBS, the BBC's US broadcast partner, for "deceptive conduct" over an interview with Kamala Harris.

In 2023, a judge threw out his defamation lawsuit against CNN, in which he alleged the network had likened him to Adolf Hitler.

He has also had lawsuits filed against the New York Times and the Washington Post dismissed.

TIKTOK: CHINESE “TROJAN HORSE” IS RUN BY STATE DEPARTMENT OFFICIALS

https://www.mintpressnews.com/tiktok-chinese-trojan-horse-run-by-state-department-officials/284353/

Amid a national hysteria claiming the popular video-sharing app is a Chinese Trojan Horse, a MintPress News investigation has found dozens of ex-U.S. State Department officials working in key positions at TikTok. Many more individuals with backgrounds in the FBI, CIA and other departments of the national security state also hold influential posts at the social media giant, affecting the content that over one billion users see.

While American politicians demand the app be banned on national security grounds, try to force through an internet surveillance act that would turn the country into an Orwellian state, make clueless statements about how TikTok is dangerous because it connects to your Wi-Fi, it is possible that TikTok is already much closer to Washington than it is to Beijing.

Controversial psychologist Jordan Peterson has fled Canada as liberals push to pass legislation that he says will suppress free speech and turn the country into a “totalitarian hellhole.”

Speaking in a recent episode of his daughter’s show, “The Mikhaila Peterson Podcast,” Peterson said he opted to move to the US over the contentious bill, C-63, and ongoing feud with the College of Psychologists of Ontario.

“The issue with the College of Psychologists is very annoying, to say the least, and the new legislation that the liberals are attempting to push through, Bill C-63, we’d all be living in a totalitarian hellhole if it passes,” Peterson said.

Jordan Peterson Flees "Totalitarian Hellhole" Canada For U.S. Due To Censorship, Taxes

There were a number of celebrities claiming they'd move to Canada if President Trump was re-elected, but now there's one Canadian who's doing the opposite.

World famous psychologist Jordan Peterson has said Canada is turning into a “totalitarian hellhole” by suppressing free speech and has fled Canada as a result, according to the New York Post.

In a recent episode of his daughter's podcast, Peterson revealed he moved to the U.S. due to Canada’s contentious Bill C-63 and his dispute with the College of Psychologists of Ontario.

Bill C-63, the Online Harms Act, seeks to curb hate speech by holding social media platforms accountable for reducing harmful content.

Peterson said: “The issue with the College of Psychologists is very annoying, to say the least, and the new legislation that the liberals are attempting to push through, Bill C-63, we’d all be living in a totalitarian hellhole if it passes.”

The New York Post writes that the British Columbia Civil Liberties Association warned the bill could lead to wrongful convictions, while others criticized it for allowing complaints based on mere “fear” of a hate crime. In response, the Canadian government recently decided to split the bill into two parts, separating free speech concerns from child protection measures.

Meanwhile, Jordan Peterson, facing criticism for his views on transgenderism, racism, and COVID-19, remains at odds with the College of Psychologists of Ontario. The college threatened to revoke his license unless he completes social media re-education training—a decision upheld by Canada’s Supreme Court in August after Peterson's appeal was dismissed.

Peterson also cited Canada’s high cost of living under Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as a factor in his decision to leave.

“The tax situation is out of hand,” he concluded. “The government in Canada at the federal level is incompetent beyond belief, and it’s become uncomfortable for me in my neighborhood in Toronto.”

Prof. Angus Dalgleish: "WE MUST STOP MESSENGER RNA AT ALL COSTS…IT'S NOT ONLY MAD, IT'S EVIL."🔥🔥

"The problem with [mRNA] is you have to stabilize it. And…they've never been able to significantly stabilize it…so it won't integrate and wreak havoc and self-replicate."

Angus Dalgleish, a professor of oncology at St George’s, University of London, describes for Charles Kovess (@CharlesKovess) et al. during a recent discussion with Medical Doctors for COVID Ethics International how not just the COVID injections, but any injections using the mRNA delivery platform, must be stopped "at all costs." Dalgleish, who has said elsewhere that he has seen an "explosion" of cancers among his patients since the rollout of the COVID injections, notes that the mRNA platform is "not only mad, [but also] evil."

"I've spent 30 years designing vaccines, cancer, and HIV. And I've also been on the boards of major pharmaceutical, mid-range pharmaceutical, especially those involving vaccines, and more importantly… a company that calls itself the messenger RNA vaccine company. I was on that for five years, and I left seven years ago," Dalgleish says. "And I knew then that the problem with messenger RNA [is] you have to stabilize it. And after all these years, they've never been able to significantly stabilize it…so it won't integrate and wreak havoc and self replicate. Therein lies the problem."

"The idea of giving it to cancer patients to try and interfere is one thing, and I could go along and support that 10, 20 years ago because I thought cancer vaccines were really important in gene therapy. That's what I was doing. In fact, I was on the editorial board of a journal called Gene Therapy. So I do know an awful lot of what they accuse me of not knowing what I'm talking about," Dalgleish adds. "But the idea that you'd give it to anybody other than a terminal cancer patient was never ever on."

"And until this pandemic was thought up and created and masquerading as an emergency, they couldn't even [roll it out] for cancer treatment," Dalgleish notes. "So now we have…[England's Chief Medical Officer Chris] Whitty and Morris and all these people say, 'Ah, it's fantastic. We've got a great way of producing… rapid vaccines for new new viruses and things for children, what have you.' And that article I spoke about, it said that there would be no liability for Moderna and any of the companies with this."

Dalgleish goes on to note:

"They want to go for diseases like RSV and flu, what have you, for children and young adults. That is the equivalent of exposing children to radium, on the ground. Let's just see if it causes any problems in 10 or 20 years' time. It's not only mad, it's evil. And we must stop it. And I'll stop there because that is the big message I want to get across: We must stop messenger RNA at all costs."

There is only one, it just that there is a probability of change from moment to moment. the real question is what is the nature and our willful ability to influence that outcome.

OpenAI whistleblower found dead at 26 in San Francisco apartment

A former OpenAI employee, Suchir Balaji, was recently found dead in his San Francisco apartment, according to the San Francisco Office of the Chief Medical Examiner. In October, the 26-year-old AI researcher raised concerns about OpenAI breaking copyright law when he was interviewed by The New York Times.

“The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner (OCME) has identified the decedent as Suchir Balaji, 26, of San Francisco. The manner of death has been determined to be suicide,” said a spokesperson in a statement to TechCrunch. “The OCME has notified the next-of-kin and has no further comment or reports for publication at this time.”

After nearly four years working at OpenAI, Balaji quit the company when he realized the technology would bring more harm than good to society, he told The New York Times. Balaji’s main concern was the way OpenAI allegedly used copyright data, and he believed its practices were damaging to the internet.

“We are devastated to learn of this incredibly sad news today and our hearts go out to Suchir’s loved ones during this difficult time,” said an OpenAI spokesperson in an email to TechCrunch.

Balaji was found dead in his Buchanan Street apartment on November 26, a spokesperson for the San Francisco Police Department told TechCrunch. Officers and medics were called to his residence in the city’s Lower Haight district to perform a wellness check on the former OpenAI researcher. No evidence of foul play was found during the initial investigation, according to police.

“I was at OpenAI for nearly 4 years and worked on ChatGPT for the last 1.5 of them,” said Balaji in a tweet from October. “I initially didn’t know much about copyright, fair use, etc. but became curious after seeing all the lawsuits filed against GenAI companies. When I tried to understand the issue better, I eventually came to the conclusion that fair use seems like a pretty implausible defense for a lot of generative AI products, for the basic reason that they can create substitutes that compete with the data they’re trained on.”

Balaji’s death was first reported by the San Jose Mercury News.

OpenAI and Microsoft are currently involved with several ongoing lawsuits from newspapers and media publishers, including the New York Times, who claim the generative AI startup has broken copyright law.

On November 25, one day before police found Balaji’s body, a court filing named the former OpenAI employee in a copyright lawsuit brought against the startup. As part of a good faith compromise, OpenAI agreed to search Balaji’s custodial file related to the copyright concerns he had recently raised.

Several former OpenAI employees have raised concerns about the startup’s safety culture, but Balaji was one of the few who took issue with the data that OpenAI trained its models on. In a blog post from October, the former OpenAI researcher wrote that he didn’t believe ChatGPT was a fair use of its training data; however, similar arguments could be made for many generative AI products, he said.

Before working at OpenAI, the 26-year-old researcher studied computer science at the University of California, Berkeley. During college, he interned at OpenAI and Scale AI, the former of which he would go on to work for.

Balaji worked on WebGPT during his early days at OpenAI, a fine-tuned version of GPT-3 that could search the web. It was an early version of SearchGPT, which OpenAI released earlier this year. Later on, Balaji worked on the pretraining team for GPT-4, reasoning team with o1, and post-training for ChatGPT, according to his LinkedIn.

Several of Balaji’s former peers and colleagues in the AI world took to social media to mourn his loss.

Iranian singer arrested after performing concert without hijab

Iranian singer Parastoo Ahmadi was arrested on Saturday after performing a YouTube concert without wearing a hijab, her lawyer told local media.

"As of noon today, we did not know about the situation of my client, Parastoo Ahmadi," her lawyer Milad Panahipour said. "Unfortunately we learned that she was arrested today in Mazandaran province."

Local media also reported that two of Ahmadi's musicians - Ehsan Birghidar and Sohail Faqih Nasiri - were arrested.

The news comes after Ahmadi performed the concert on Wednesday in defiance of Iran's strict morality laws for women. Alongside the mandatory hijab law, women are also not free to sing publicly in Iran.

In the introduction to her performance, Ahmadi said: "I want to sing for the people I love. This is a right that I could not ignore; singing for the land that I love dearly."

Ahmadi performed without an audience but broadcast the concert live on her YouTube channel. Despite being filtered by Iran's restricted access to YouTube, it was viewed 74,000 times in the 12 hours after the performance.

Following the concert's widespread sharing online, her home was raided by security agents and she was summoned to the Tehran Security Prosecutor's Office for questioning.

Iranian authorities announced that Ahmadi would be tried immediately after the concert was broadcast.

Women continue to protest against the restrictive gendered morality laws in the country since the 'Women, Life, Freedom' emerged in the wake of the death of Mahsa Amini in 2022.

>A former OpenAI employee, Suchir Balaji, was recently found dead

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suchir_Balaji

Suchir Balaji was an artificial intelligence researcher and former employee of OpenAI.[1] He gained attention for his whistleblowing activities related to artificial intelligence ethics and the inner workings of OpenAI.[2] On November 26, 2024, Balaji was found dead in his San Francisco apartment under circumstances that have sparked widespread speculation.[3][4][5]

Education

Balaji graduated from the University of California, Berkeley, in 2021 with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science. During his academic tenure, he distinguished himself in programming competitions, securing the 31st position in the ACM ICPC (International Collegiate Programming Contest) 2018 World Finals. He also secured first place in both the 2017 Pacific Northwest Regional and Berkeley Programming Contests.[6]

Career

Suchir Balaji spent nearly four years as an artificial intelligence researcher at OpenAI. Among other projects, he helped gather and organize the enormous amounts of internet data the company used to build its online chatbot, ChatGPT.[7]

Death

On December 16, 2024, authorities in San Francisco discovered Balaji dead in his apartment while doing a wellness check. The circumstances surrounding his death remain unclear, and investigations are ongoing. The police have ruled that there was "no evidence of foul play" found during the investigation, and the medical examiner’s office confirmed the cause of death as suicide.[8][9] His death has prompted public and media interest, particularly given his whistleblowing claims.[10][11]

1 Dead, Suspect Arrested After ‘Active Shooter’ Situation at Georgia Army Base

One person is dead and a suspect is in custody following a shooting at an Army base in east Georgia Saturday morning.

The victim, whose identity has not been released, was shot “in on-post housing” at Fort Eisenhower, just outside Augusta, in what the base described as an “active shooter” situation.

An alert issued on social media at around 8:50 a.m. instructed those at Fort Eisenhower to “execute lockdown procedures” immediately and to “take appropriate action” if in danger.

An “all clear” alert was issued roughly an hour later, with the post reopening at 9:45 a.m.

“The dangerous event has passed,” officials said in a statement. “All personnel can resume normal operations.”

Around the same time, local law enforcement issued an alert over radio asking for officers to be on the lookout for a white Toyota Camry with a tag from of Tennessee, reported CBS affiliate WRDW.

The message said the car was believed to be connected to the murder, and was “last seen near mile marker 145 on I-20 heading towards South Carolina.”

Fort Eisenhower later confirmed a suspect was in custody, but did not provide additional details.

The Department of the Army Criminal Investigation Division, alongside state and federal authorities, are actively investigating the incident, which they said appeared “to be isolated” and did not pose further threat.

“Our focus at this time is providing support to the victim’s family and assistance to anyone impacted by this tragedy,” officials said. “The safety and well-being of our residents — our soldiers and families — remains a top priority.”

The base said it would not publicly identify the victim until family is notified and “has had time to process” the tragedy. Officials declined to share any more information on Saturday.

Fort Eisenhower, formerly known as Fort Gordon, was established in 1917 and is currently home to the U.S. Army Signal Corps and Cyber Center of Excellence. It’s one of the largest U.S. Army installations in the world with more than 16,000 military service members and 13,500 civilian personnel assigned to it.

Ukraine Plans to Ship Grain to Syria, Replacing Russian Supplies

Published Dec 15, 2024 8:46 PM by The Maritime Executive

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced Sunday that his government is working to facilitate shipments of agricultural goods to Syria, which is now governed by Islamist group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS). Until HTS took Damascus last week, Syria was a top recipient of Russian-supplied grain stolen from occupied Ukrainian territories; with the ouster of Russian-backed president Bashar al-Assad, Russia's grain-theft bulkers have halted mid-voyage and are not expected to deliver their cargoes.

During HTS' short and decisive offensive against the Assad regime, Ukraine weighed in on the militant group's behalf, aiming to deal Russia a strategic failure in the eastern Mediterranean. Russian intelligence official Alexander Lavrentyev complained about the presence of Ukrainian operatives on the ground; Ukraine's secret service, the GUR, reportedly provided drone surveillance assistance to HTS units during the push to the capital.

With Assad gone, and with his Russian backers all but ejected, HTS must now govern on its own - with few resources, and with a terrorist-group designation clouding its ability to cooperate with the West. In this context, bulkers of corn and wheat from the "Grain from Ukraine" program could help alleviate potential food shortages in Syria's devastated economy.

Where is Russia going to sell the grain it steals from Ukraine?

"This humanitarian initiative has already made a significant impact in stabilizing the food situation in some of the world’s most challenging regions," said Zelensky. "Now, we have the opportunity to support Syrians with Ukrainian wheat, flour, and oil—our products that contribute globally to ensuring food security."

Zelensky said that his administration is already coordinating with its partners and with "the Syrian side" to make delivery arrangements. "We will certainly support this region so that stability there can become a foundation for our movement toward real peace," he said.

Luigi Mangione Pictures Met With Cheers at Boston Concert

Attendees at a dance party in Boston cheered when pictures of Luigi Mangione, the man accused in the killing of UnitedHealthcare's CEO, appeared on screen, according to videos posted on social media.

Bop to the Top Tours' Jingle Bop was being held at Big Night Live, a venue in Boston, on Friday night.

During the show, a DJ played Miley Cyrus' "He Could Be The One" as several pictures of Mangione appeared on a big screen.

The crowd can be heard cheering as photos of Mangione taken from his social media accounts appear on screen.

The cheers appear to get louder as Mangione's booking photos are shown on screen, according to a clip shared by a user on TikTok that racked up more than 1.2 million likes.

"Give the people what they want," the user wrote alongside the video.

Bop to the Top Tour shared the user's clip on its Instagram page with the caption: "Too unserious."

Newsweek has contacted Bop to the Top Tour for comment via a contact form on its website.

Mangione, 26, has become an online sex symbol since he was arrested at a McDonald's in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on December 9. A fundraiser has since raised more than $100,000 to go toward his legal fees and his lawyer said he has received offers from people wanting to pay Mangione's legal bills.

He remains incarcerated without bail at the State Correctional Institution Huntingdon in Pennsylvania, where he has been charged with gun and forgery offenses.

Prosecutors in Manhattan are seeking to extradite Mangione to New York to face second-degree murder and other charges in connection with Thompson's killing.

Thompson, 50, was gunned down early on December 4 as he walked alone to his company's annual investor conference at the New York Hilton Midtown.

Mangione's lawyer Thomas Dickey has said his client will plead not guilty to the charges in Pennsylvania and will contest his extradition to New York.

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg on Friday said that there were signs that Mangione may now given up on that fight.

"We [are] going to continue to press forward on parallel paths, and we'll be ready whether he is going to waive extradition or whether he is going to contest extradition," Bragg said at a press conference about public safety in Times Square.

Police said the gun found on Mangione when he was arrested matched shell casings found at the site of the shooting. His fingerprints have also been matched to a water bottle and a wrapper that police found near the scene, police said.

A handwritten note that was also found on him referred to "parasites" that "had it coming."

The U.S. has the most expensive healthcare system in the world and the profits of large corporations continue to rise while "our life expectancy" does not, the note said.

It also condemned corporations that "continue to abuse our country for immense profit because the American public has allowed them to get away with it."

It added: "It is not an issue of awareness at this point, but clearly power games at play. Evidently, I am the first to face it with such brutal honesty."

Incoming West Virginia state lawmaker arrested after allegedly threatening to kill fellow lawmakers

An incoming West Virginia state lawmaker was arrested Thursday after he allegedly threatened to kill other state lawmakers.

Joseph de Soto, who was elected in November to serve as a delegate in the West Virginia House, was arrested by troopers early Thursday morning after an investigation showed he "had made several threatening/intimidating threats against government officials," West Virginia State Police Lt. Leslie T. Goldie Jr. said in a statement.

"The West Virginia State Police and the West Virginia Capitol Police take all threats against government process seriously," Goldie Jr. said. "Any person making these threats used to intimidate, disrupt, or coerce the members of our West Virginia legislature or other governmental bodies will not be tolerated."

He was charged with one count of threats of terrorist acts, a felony, and the bond was set at $300,000.

A witness told police on Wednesday that de Soto was upset following a recent meeting where Republican state lawmakers discussed whether to expel him from the caucus, according to a complaint shared with NBC News by an official with the Berkley County Commission. It's unclear what prompted the discussion and de Soto had not yet been sworn in.

De Soto had been elected as a Republican but the West Virginia secretary of state’s office confirmed to NBC News on Friday that he switched his affiliation on Wednesday to the Democratic Party.

The witness who spoke to police talked on the phone Tuesday to de Soto, who detailed the meeting and said "he was going to kill delegates," according to the complaint. The complaint named a handful of Republican state lawmakers, including Speaker of the West Virginia House of Delegates Roger Hanshaw, as targets.

Hanshaw didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.

"When asked what he meant by using the word 'kill,' he advised God called him to kill them," the complaint said.

In an email provided to police by the witness, de Soto wrote that the delegates "can all go to hell, I will send them there as commanded." A text message the witness provided to police also showed that de Soto said, "I did say I am going to kill people I said I am going that is necessary to put them from office."

The witness told police that de Soto "has a temper and can become very angry," the complaint said.

"Mr. DeSoto has been very upset over things that have been occurring with the political group and things that he believes are being said against him and feels that he is being attacked and forced out of his position," the complaint said.

Defense attorney Jacob Mills told NBC News that his firm, Criminal Law Center Kevin D. Mills & Associates, is representing De Soto, who he said "is presumed to be innocent."

"He has entered a plea of not guilty. My firm will be presenting his case in court and expect his vindication," Mills said.

West Virginia Republican Party chairman Matt Herridge in a statement criticized de Soto's actions and said the party supports his expulsion.

“Our elected officials sacrifice a lot to serve their communities, and it is a travesty for anyone to face the additional burden of threats made against themselves and their families,” Herridge said in a statement.

Two Russian oil tankers wrecked in Black Sea leaving major oil spill

Two Russian oil tankers have been badly damaged in the Black Sea, causing an oil spill, authorities in Russia have said.

Footage released by Russia's Southern Transport Prosecutor's Office showed the bow of one tanker completely broken off, with streaks of oil visible in the water.

Both tankers are believed to have drifted before running aground offshore. At least one crew member was reportedly killed.

The incident took place in the Kerch Strait, which separates Russia from Crimea - the Ukrainian peninsula illegally annexed by Moscow in 2014.

A rescue operation involving tugboats, helicopters and more than 50 personnel saw 13 crew members rescued from one tanker, before being suspended due to bad weather.

The 14 remaining crew members aboard the second tanker are said to have "everything necessary for immediate life support" on board with them, but look set to be stranded until conditions improve.

President Vladimir Putin has ordered a working group to be set up to deal with the incident, headed by Deputy Prime Minister Vitaly Savelyev - and authorities are investigating for criminal negligence.

Michelle Bockmann, an analyst at shipping industry journal Lloyd's List, told the BBC the two vessels are owned by the company Volgatanker and were relatively small.

They had been carrying around 4,300 dead weight tonnes of oil each, according to Russian officials quoted by Tass news agency.

A tanker used for trading Russian crude oil internationally generally has a much larger carrying capacity of around 120,000 dead weight tonnes, Bockmann said, meaning it is likely these tankers were used for transporting oil through Russia's rivers or in coastal waters.

The Kerch Strait is a key route for exports of Russian grain and it is also used for exports of crude oil, fuel oil and liquefied natural gas.

In 2007, another oil tanker - Volgoneft-139 - split in half during a storm while anchored off the Kerch Strait, spilling more than 1,000 tonnes of oil.

Russian oil imports have been heavily sanctioned by allies of Ukraine since the Kremlin ordered the full-scale invasion of the country in February 2022.

In recent years, Russia has been accused of using a so-called ghost fleet of tankers, which are often poorly maintained and lack proper insurance, to move oil and circumvent sanctions - though Bockmann said it did not appear the tankers involved in Sunday's incident were part of that fleet.

Uyghur fighters in Syria vow to come for China next

A Uyghur militant group that helped to topple Bashar-al Assad has vowed to take the fight to China.

The Turkistan Islamic Party (TIP) threatened Beijing in a video released on Dec 8, the day the Syrian regime collapsed, showing its fighters holding machine guns and wearing military fatigues.

“Now here in Syria, in all the cities here, we fight for Allah, and we will continue to do this in our Urumchi, Aqsu and Kashgar in the future,” said one masked man, listing cities in China’s Xinjiang region, from where the Uyghurs hail. “We will chase the Chinese infidels away.”

Using the Uyghurs’ preferred name for their homeland, he added: “We have fought in Homs, in Idlib and we will continue the fight in East Turkistan.

“Allah has given us a victory here. May he also grant us a victory in our own land.”

The TIP has been based in Syria for more than a decade, with its members fleeing to the Middle East to escape China’s severe oppression of the Uyghurs, a largely Muslim minority group. Its fighters joined Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), the Islamist group that led the rebel offensive, in a thrust out of the north-west of Syria.

In recent days TIP has engaged in an unusual publicity blitz, showcasing its leader Abu Muhammed alongside his battalions.

One video claims to show the TIP fighting against Assad’s forces on the front lines in late November 2024, shortly after the rebel offensive was launched. Another shows TIP fighters rolling into Damascus on tanks, waving light blue flags bearing the group’s crescent-and-star symbol.

According to the video captions, TIP fighters entered the strategic port cities of Latakia and Tartus on Dec 10 and 11. Both are situated along Syria’s coastline and previously hosted Russian forces.

“So many groups allied against us. Russia came, Iran came, Hezbollah came – with strong weapons and all kinds of soldiers,” said one man in the Dec 8 video. “But each time, Allah as our witness, we did not retreat.

“With the help of Allah, we have fought our way here. We did not once show weakness or fear; we were never afraid.”

TIP certainly had a role to play in the rebel victory, said Aymenn Jawad al-Tamimi, an independent researcher who specialises in the Syrian civil war.

“They weren’t necessarily a larger force than the other Syrian insurgent groups that were assisting HTS, but they were part of the offensive,” he said.

In 2021, Syrian television reportedly described the group as HTS’s “favourite ally”. TIP senior leadership have also indicated previously that the group was glad to support their “Syrian brothers’ demand that the Assad regime leaves”.

TIP has stayed in Syria during 13 years of civil war and appears to have retained an independent identity despite ties to other factions.

The group, established some time in the 1990s with a previous presence in Afghanistan and Pakistan, has continually highlighted its priority as Uyghur independence, describing a goal to “liberate the Muslims of East Turkistan from the Chinese occupation”.

On Dec 6, as the Syrian rebel offensive pushed onward, TIP’s emir, Abd Haq al-Turkistani, released a statement stressing the group’s plans to attack China in the future.

“While the Muslims are celebrating these victories in every place, the Muslims of oppressed East Turkistan remain far removed from the news of them as they live under a filthy oppressive, disbelieving occupation that suppresses them by every means possible,” he said.

“Through God’s support, the Chinese disbelievers will soon taste the same torment that the disbelievers in al-Sham have tasted, if God wills.”

The group has posted pictures on social media of blood splattering the face of Xi Jinping, the Chinese president.

Other clips highlight grievances such as the 1990 Baren Uprising, when possibly thousands of Uyghur protesters were killed by the Chinese government, a massacre that was later whitewashed by the authorities. The real number of fatalities is unknown.

Rune Steenberg, an anthropologist who specialises in the Uyghurs at Palacky University Olomouc, said: “They see this as one step of a global jihad, where one day all Muslims will be free, and part of that will be the Muslims in East Turkistan. They’re saying, ‘Now we are guests, but with God’s help, we will soon be hosts.’”

China’s crackdown on the Uyghurs has seen more than one million people forced into re-education camps, with thousands more imprisoned for “crimes” such as praying or fasting.

In interviews with The Telegraph, former detainees have described being beaten in solitary confinement and made to pledge loyalty to Mr Xi.

Many chose to flee China by paying thousands of dollars to smugglers.

Some hoped to go abroad to learn more about their own religion of Islam, the independent practice of which is banned by the government. Only state-sanctioned Qurans and state-controlled imams are allowed.

A handful of Uyghurs who either planned to go or went to the Middle East have told the Telegraph before that they wanted to learn from other Muslims ‘how to perform jihad the right way’, without violating religious principles.

Whether TIP can materially organise and launch attacks against the Chinese government remains to be seen.

Beijing has long emphasised and perhaps overstated TIP’s strength as a pretext to justify its crackdown on the Uyghurs, while some Uyghur experts have debated how cohesive the group really is, saying that it’s virtually non-existent.

While TIP’s latest propaganda – set to a score of sweeping music – indicates that it does indeed exist and is active, it remains unclear what their full capabilities are in terms of numbers, training and firepower.

China boasts the world’s largest military at two million strong, and has advanced weapons systems and armed drones.

But the country’s growing overseas investments – a cornerstone of Xi’s foreign policy – means there are infrastructure assets and an influx of Chinese workers internationally that could be at risk of attack.

China is very likely to request the extradition of TIP members, a group it considers a terrorist organisation.

Its presence in Syria “will definitely be a sticking point if the new Syrian government wants a relationship with China”, said Mr Jawad al-Tamimi, adding: “But if HTS hands them over, it’s a big compromise of one of their principles.”

One of HTS’s founding principles, he said, was that the foreigners who joined the Syrian insurgency had to be protected. In exchange, they had to promise not to use Syria as a launching pad for terrorist attacks abroad.

In 2020, Abu Mohammed al-Jolani, the leader of HTS, said: “These guys have been in Syria for seven years and have never constituted a threat to the outside world.

“They are committed solely to defending Idlib against regime aggression.

“As Uyghurs, they face persecution in China – which we strongly condemn – and they have nowhere else to go. Of course, I sympathise with them, but their struggle in China is not ours, so we tell them that they are welcome here as long as they abide by our rules – which they do.”

There is also a question of how much influence TIP will have as al-Jolani and other armed groups set up a new governing system in Damascus, said Broderick McDonald, an associate fellow at King’s College London’s international centre for the study of radicalisation.

“For the Uyghurs and other foreign fighters now stepping out of the shadows [in propaganda videos] as they feel more secure, what does that mean for what they do with minority groups, and will they try to shape the future of Syria?

There is a chance that a more hardline faction could splinter off, but for now, TIP propaganda indicates the group is grateful for their gracious host in Syria.

In one video from Dec 10, a masked fighter addressed a congregation at what the group says was a mosque in Latakia.

“The Chinese government drove us out of our country, oppressed us, killed us and imprisoned us,” he said. “We left our country and came here … we have seen from you all the goodness for the past 10 years. We are the mujahideen of East Turkistan.”

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi undergoes hip replacement after sustaining injuries in Europe

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi underwent a successful hip replacement surgery in Germany after sustaining an injury during a congressional trip to Luxembourg, a spokesperson said on Saturday.

Ian Krager, the spokesperson, described Pelosi as "well on the mend."

"Speaker Pelosi is grateful to U.S. military staff at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center and medical staff at Hospital Kirchberg for their excellent care and kindness. Speaker Pelosi is enjoying the overwhelming outpouring of prayers and well wishes and is ever determined to ensure access to quality health care for all Americans," Krager added.

The former speaker was taken by MEDEVAC to Landstuhl, Germany, a defense official told NBC News, after Pelosi was injured Friday in Luxembourg.

In a statement Friday, Krager told reporters that Pelosi, 84, "sustained an injury during an official engagement and was admitted to the hospital for evaluation."

Krager added, "Speaker Emerita Pelosi is currently receiving excellent treatment from doctors and medical professionals. She continues to work and regrets that she is unable to attend the remainder of the CODEL engagements to honor the courage of our servicemembers during one of the greatest acts of American heroism in our nation’s history."

Friday's statement did not include any details about Pelosi's injury or how she sustained it.

Pelosi was first hospitalized in Luxembourg while on a trip with over a dozen other members of Congress to honor the 80th anniversary of the Battle of the Bulge.

One of the oldest members of the House, Pelosi stepped down from her speakership position in 2022, ushering in a wave of generational change among the party's leadership.

First elected in 1987, Pelosi made history in 2007 when she became the first female speaker of the House.

She was just re-elected to another term in November, which would allow her to serve through 2026. Pelosi has not announced whether she plans to seek another term in two years.

News of her injury came just days after outgoing Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., fell during a lunch with Senate Republicans on Capitol Hill. McConnell, 82, sprained his wrist and sustained a minor cut to the face in that incident, according to his office.

Luigi Mangione makes a bold legal play as he hires powerhouse ex-DA who knows 'every judge' in NY

Luigi Mangione has taken on a powerful New York attorney to represent him as he faces charges over Brian Thompson's death.

The murder suspect, who is accused of shooting the top brass dead in the streets of New York City, has captivated the country after he was captured by authorities following a five-day run from police.

It appears now he is replacing his initial representation Thomas Dickey with Karen Friedman Agnifilo, a former assistant district attorney who helped prosecute the Harvey Weinstein case in New York.

She's considered a veteran of the New York state court system, with one source telling CNN Friedman Agnifilo 'knows every corridor, every judge, every clerk in the courthouse.'

'She's got as much experience as any human being, especially in the state court.'

CNN had previously employed Friedman Agnifilo as a legal analyst.

Friedman Agnifilo left Cyrus Vance Jr.'s Manhattan DA office after seven years in 2021 to go and work in private practice, including at Geragos & Geragos, the high-powered LA firm that currently represents the Menendez brothers.

She studied political science and government before getting her Law degree at Georgetown.

Friedman Agnifilo also co-hosts a podcast called MissTrial, with former New York Congresswoman Kathleen Rice and ex-federal prosecutor E. Danya Perry.

It comes as multiple crowdfunding attempts have been made to raise money for Mangione's defense, according to ABC News.

The suspect, 26, has been accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, 50, outside of a New York City hotel on December 4.

He was arrested in Pennsylvania on firearms charges and had an actioned-packed day in court Tuesday fighting extradition to the Big Apple.

While Mangione is working to extend his stay in the Keystone State, New York officials are hoping to get him back with what is called a governor's warrant.

It's a warrant signed by the governor of a state where a fugitive flees after a crime. The governor in that state acts upon an official request from the governor of the state where the crime occurred.

In this case, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul is expected to seek a governor's warrant from Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, but the process could take more than a month.

On Wednesday, New York City Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch said police have matched a gun found on Mangione with the shell casings recovered at the scene and his fingerprints with a water bottle and energy bar wrapper found nearby.

Other evidence includes handwritten documents found in his possession casting his alleged crime as a legitimate response to what he viewed as corporate greed, some media outlets have reported.

Mangione lashed out on Tuesday as he was led into a courthouse, shouting in part, '…completely out of touch and an insult to the intelligence of the American people!'

The former Ivy League student had been apprehended with a 3D-printed pistol and black silencer, as well as a manifesto condemning the American healthcare system.

Mangione also had a spiral notebook in which he wrote a 'to-do list,' ahead of the grizzly shooting, CNN reported.

In it, he allegedly toyed with the idea of using a bomb to kill Thompson - but he decided against the prospect because it 'could kill innocents,' and determined a shooting would be more targeted.

He also reportedly mused that it couldn't get any better than 'to kill the CEO at his own bean-counting conference,' as Thompson was set to disclose the financial gains the company made this year.

Authorities have said Mangione's three-page manifesto is currently being investigated, which they have labeled a 'claim of responsibility.'

The document is a different piece of evidence from notebook - where he flirted with the idea of bombing Midtown to kill the millionaire healthcare boss.

In the manifesto, Mangione allegedly wrote about the grandiose size of UnitedHealthcare and how much profits it makes, and went on to condemn health insurance companies more broadly for placing profits over care.

Details about his writing come amid the backdrop of the UPenn graduate's own experience with the medical world, as he had been struggling after a spinal injury. His elaborate online presence also showed he'd read multiple books on back pain.

'To save you a lengthy investigation, I state plainly that I wasn't working with anyone. This was fairly trivial: some elementary social engineering, basic CAD, [and] a lot of patience,' he allegedly wrote in the manifesto, according to the Daily Beast.

He went on to say he had 'respect' for federal investigators, and apologized for causing any 'traumas,' but seemed to defend his alleged actions.

'Frankly these parasites had it coming,' the manifesto read.

It claimed that the United States had the 'most expensive healthcare system in the world,' but blasted the system for making America only the 42nd in life expectancy.

Closer look at X-P4 prototype drone

teroDynamics’ innovative folding wing Transwing drone has completed a vital sea trial for the United States Navy. Fully autonomous, the all-electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) was able to approach and land safely on a moving target. If the drone is to have any future with the likes of the Navy, this test has been a necessary hurdle to overcome, and, by all accounts, it passed it with flying colors.

Sea trials passed

Last week, PteroDynamics’ latest prototype, the Transwing X-P4, demonstrated its capabilities by completing nine autonomous launch and recovery flights from the Spearhead-class expeditionary fast transport USNS Burlington deck sailing near Key West, Florida. The demonstration was attended by Vice Chief of Naval Operations Admiral Lisa Franchetti and representatives from the U.S. Navy, the Royal Navy, the Royal Australian Navy, the Royal Netherlands Navy, and the Swedish Navy.

“Participating in The Hybrid Fleet Campaign Event brought us closer to our goal of providing the U.S. Navy with a flexible and scalable shore-to-ship, ship-to-ship, and ship-to-shore automated cargo delivery capability,” said Tim Whitehand, PteroDynamics VP of Engineering.

“Flight testing on board the USNS Burlington gave us a unique and valuable opportunity to collect performance data on the Transwing system in an operational environment. The information gathered during the event will accelerate development and seed further innovation. We are grateful for the opportunity to participate in this important exercise and the support of the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD) and Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR),” he added.

The Transwing platform has a unique dihedral folding wing system that enables it to switch between hover and cruise modes, providing significant advantages. Regarding aviation, dihedral refers to the inclination of an aircraft’s wing from the horizontal, especially upwards away from the fuselage. The dihedral hinges, around which the wings rotate, are the cornerstone of Transwing’s design. They enable the wings to tilt as they fold so that when they rest against the aircraft’s body, they face upwards along with the propellers.

In this sense, it works similarly to the United States Air Force’s veteran VTOL aircraft, the Bell Boeing V-22 “Osprey,” but on a much smaller scale. The entire transformation is smooth and “aerodynamically benign,” driven mechanically by small struts extending from the fuselage on a linear actuator. The company asserts that its innovative and patented design resembles a forward-flight plane with propellers along its wings.

However, during landing, the wings fold back. As a result, the Transwing can vertically take off and land like a multi-copter drone but then travel proficiently by utilizing wing lift during forward flight. When the wings are vertical, the drone can also hover and maneuver at low airspeeds.

The X-P4 has a wingspan of 13 feet (4 meters) and can lift 15 pounds (6.8 kilograms) of payload, with a maximum takeoff weight of 84 pounds (38 kilograms). It can travel up to 69 miles (111 kilometers) at a cruising speed of 1 hour before its battery runs out. It can also reach a maximum speed of 115 mph (185 kph).

Bigger to come

PteroDynamics now plans to develop even larger drones. The next drone in line, X-P5, will have a wingspan of 22 feet (6.7 meters) and can carry up to 50 pounds (23 kilograms) of payload using a hybrid power system. And finally, X-P6 will take things to the next level with a turbogenerator powertrain and a wingspan of 30 feet (9.1 meters). It will carry 220 pounds (100 kilograms) of payload up to 978 miles (1,574 kilometers).

Elon Musk hits $400 billion record, teases bold Bill Gates bankruptcy if Tesla rules

Elon Musk has reached an extraordinary milestone, becoming the first person to surpass $400 billion in net worth.

According to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, his wealth now stands at an astounding $447 billion. This massive financial leap was propelled by record-breaking Tesla stock prices and a significant insider share sale of his private space exploration company, SpaceX, which reportedly added $50 billion to his fortune.

Adding to the intrigue, Musk stirred the pot on social media. In a jab at Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, Musk quipped on X (formerly Twitter) that Gates might face “bankruptcy” if Tesla becomes “the world’s most valuable company by far.”

This comment reignites their long-standing feud, which centers on Gates’ short position against Tesla’s stock.

A wealth surge backed by Tesla and SpaceX

Musk’s fortune has soared thanks to the meteoric rise of Tesla’s stock, which hit an all-time high of $424.77 per share. The company’s value has surged 65% since the recent U.S. presidential election, buoyed by optimism about Musk’s collaboration with President-elect Donald Trump.

Investors anticipate that Musk’s influence in the new administration, including his role in overseeing the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) alongside Vivek Ramaswamy, will bring deregulation and growth opportunities for his ventures.

SpaceX, another pillar of Musk’s empire, continues to dominate the private space exploration market. The recent share sale not only boosted Musk’s wealth but also emphasized SpaceX’s critical role in shaping the future of space travel.

Additionally, Musk’s artificial intelligence startup, xAI, has emerged as a key player in the tech world. Its valuation has doubled to $50 billion since May, driven by advancements in cutting-edge AI technologies and a successful funding round.

Challenges amidst unprecedented success

While Musk’s wealth continues to climb, he hasn’t been immune to setbacks. A Delaware court recently struck down his historic Tesla pay package worth over $100 billion, marking a rare legal defeat.

However, this decision is unlikely to make a dent in his status as the world’s wealthiest individual.

Despite these challenges, Musk remains far ahead of his competitors in the global wealth rankings. Jeff Bezos, Amazon’s founder, holds the second position with $249 billion, followed by Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg at $224 billion. Other billionaires on the list include Larry Ellison, with $198 billion, and Bernard Arnault, at $181 billion.

Musk’s dominance isn’t limited to electric vehicles and space exploration. With ventures like Neuralink, the Boring Company, and xAI under his leadership, his portfolio spans industries poised for future growth. His growing influence in business and politics positions him to maintain his wealth and expand his reach in the coming years.

A billionaire rivalry in focus

The Musk-Gates rivalry remains a talking point as both billionaires champion different approaches to technology and philanthropy. While Musk pushes boundaries in electric vehicles, space travel, and AI, Gates has focused on global health and sustainability initiatives.

Musk’s recent comments highlight not just his competitive streak but also the sharp contrast in their worldviews. As Tesla and SpaceX continue to scale new heights, Musk’s wealth trajectory seems unstoppable.

California young adult mortality rate above pre-pandemic levels, fueled by overdoses

(The Center Square) – A new report from California’s Legislative Analyst’s Office shows that the young adult mortality rate has remained much higher than pre-pandemic levels.

“Overall mortality among Californians between the ages of 15 and 44 is still much higher than it was before the COVID-19 pandemic,” reads the report. “In 2023, 15-to-44-year-old Californians (to whom we refer as “young adults” in this report) died at a rate of 128 per 100,000 people, compared to just 99 per 100,000 in 2019—representing an increase of nearly 30 percent.”

Notably, 60% of the increase in deaths among those aged 15 to 44 are from overdoses - a sharp increase in 2020 fueled by the prevalence of fentanyl.

“Age 15 to 44 drug overdose deaths were growing before the pandemic, but this growth accelerated substantially in early 2020,” reads the report. “Since then, this growth has slowed but not reversed, so young adults are still dying from overdoses at a much higher rate than before the pandemic.”

Prior to 2020, young adult overdoses usually involved synthetic opioids - not psychostimulants. However, after 2020, overdoses have been driven primarily by a mix of synthetic opioids and psychostimulants with 95% of those deaths involving fentanyl.

“Due to fentanyl’s low cost, high potency, and ubiquity in drug markets, people often intentionally or unintentionally use it along with other drugs,” reads the report. “As a result, many fentanyl overdose deaths involve other drugs as well. One of the most common pairings consists of fentanyl and a psychostimulant, typically methamphetamine… this pairing of drugs has played a large and growing role in the fentanyl overdose crisis.”

In addition to the available quantity of fentanyl, the report notes two other things that may be contributing to the increased number of overdoses - declining participation in medication-assisted treatment for opioid use and increased homelessness among young people. Medication-assisted treatment is where buprenorphine, methadone and naltrexone is used to block the effects of opioids and reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms.

“Enrollment in these programs was 42 percent lower in March 2020 than in March 2019,” reads the report. “These enrollment numbers rebounded by March 2021 but still remain noticeably below pre-pandemic levels. This pattern suggests that early-pandemic changes in access to medication-assisted treatment might have contributed to the rapid growth in overdose deaths in 2020.”

While substance abuse is prevalent among the homeless population, the report notes that the rate of overdose deaths among the homeless has grown much faster than the homeless population itself.

“Among people experiencing homelessness in Los Angeles County, the total number of overdose deaths grew from 341 in 2019 to 826 in 2022—an increase of 142 percent,” reads the report, concluding that easy access to fentanyl is the more likely contributor to overdoses.

“These numbers suggest that most of the county’s growth in overdose deaths has not occurred simply because more people are living on the streets,” reads the report. “Rather, other factors that affect the risk of overdose death both for housed and unhoused people—such as the pervasive presence of fentanyl—appear to be more important.”

The other types of young adult deaths are alcohol-induced (10%), motor vehicle crashes (10%), firearm homicides, Covid-19 and other causes of death.

Based on these findings and the high number of young adult deaths, the Legislative Analyst’s Office urges the legislature to explore ways to reduce the young adult mortality rate.

Biden Commutes Northbrook Businessman's Sentence In Largest Day Of Clemency

Eric Bloom, ex-CEO of Sentinel Management, was sentenced to prison in 2015 after being charged with defrauding customers of $665 million.

NORTHBROOK, IL — President Joe Biden on Thursday commuted the sentences of 1,500 Americans who were released from prison and placed on home confinement during the COVID-19 pandemic, and pardoned more than three dozen other people. Among those who saw their sentence commuted was Eric Bloom, the former CEO of Northbrook-based Sentinel Management Group, Inc., who defrauded hundreds of customers of more than $665 million.

Bloom, 59, was sentenced to 14 years in prison in 2015. At the time, Patch reported Bloom's case was the largest financial fraud case ever prosecuted in the Federal Court of Chicago. His firm collapsed in 2007. Bloom's sentence was to end in May 2026 reports Chicago Tribune.

Bloom was convicted in 2014 of 18 counts of wire fraud and one count of investment adviser fraud after a four-week trial in U.S. District Court. Between January 2003 and August 2007, Bloom fraudulently obtained and retained under management more than $1 billion of customers' funds.

The sweeping action by Biden was the largest act of clemency in a single day and includes 39 pardons for non-violent crimes, including drug offenses, for people who had "turned their lives around," the White House said.

Those granted clemency had been serving longer sentences than would have been imposed under more recent laws and practices and were placed on home confinement during the pandemic, and are people who have successfully reintegrated into their communities, Biden said. The full list of those granted clemency can be found here.

The commutations are for people who have served out home sentences for at least one year after they were released from prison. Prisons were uniquely bad for spreading the virus and some inmates were released in part to stop the spread. At one point, 1 in 5 prisoners had COVID-19, according to a tally kept by The Associated Press.

Biden, whose single term in the White House is drawing to an end, said in a statement that his administration will review other clemency petitions in the weeks ahead.

“America was built on the promise of possibility and second chances,” Biden said. “As president, I have the great privilege of extending mercy to people who have demonstrated remorse and rehabilitation, restoring opportunity for Americans to participate in daily life and contribute to their communities, and taking steps to remove sentencing disparities for non-violent offenders, especially those convicted of drug offenses.”

Clemency is the term for the power the president has to pardon, in which a person is relieved of guilt and punishment, or to commute a sentence, which reduces or eliminates the punishment but doesn’t exonerate the wrongdoing.

It is customary for an outgoing president to use the executive power to wipe away records and end prison terms. Even before Thursday’s announcement, Biden has granted more clemency requests than any other president at this point in his first term in recent history, the White House said. The second largest single-day act of clemency was by Barack Obama, with 330, shortly before leaving office in 2017.

Biden’s earlier actions include categorical pardons to people convicted under federal law of simple marijuana violations and former LGBTQ+ service members convicted of private conduct because of their sexual orientation.

Biden continues to face criticism for the blanket pardon earlier this month for his son, Hunter, despite previous pledges not to do so. The president’s action spared the younger Biden a possible prison sentence for federal felony gun and tax convictions.

The full list of people granted clemency is found on the White House website.

Inside Assad’s Ransacked Palace: Anxiety Pills, Graffiti and Shredded Posters

DAMASCUS, Syria—Rebel fighters and civilians strolled through the grounds of Bashar al-Assad’s presidential palace on Tuesday, stepping on shredded posters of the former dictator who had fled to Russia days earlier.

In Assad’s abandoned office, his desk and floor were littered with books and papers: a history of the Russian military, a map of northeastern Syria, a biography of himself. Strips of benzodiazepine antianxiety pills were in their packaging on the desk.

On one of the yellowed windows overlooking Damascus, someone had spray-painted, “God damn your soul, Hafez,” a reference to Bashar’s late father, Hafez al-Assad, who ruled Syria for some three decades before his son inherited power.

The palace afforded a glimpse into the last days of a dictator who for more than a decade used torture, bombings and chemical weapons in a war to suppress a rebellion against him, which began during the Arab Spring protests in 2011.

In recent days, demonstrators have swarmed into Umayyad Square in the center of the capital, posing with rebel fighters holding assault rifles and waving the green, white and black flag of the Syrian revolution.

After a yearslong civil war, the regime crumbled in less than two weeks as its allies, Russia and Iran, weren’t able to help it stop a rebel advance. Rebels aligned with the Islamist group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, also known as HTS, seized a series of Syrian cities, paving the way for an almost frictionless takeover of the capital Sunday.

On Tuesday, in the entry hall to the wing of the palace housing Assad’s office, a rebel soldier with an AK-47 slung over his shoulder meandered with two comrades down a strip of red carpet that bisects a marble floor.

“The nightmare is over,” said the soldier, Mustafa Hassan, a former history teacher from the Syrian city of Raqqa who joined the 2011 protests and took up arms in the rebellion. He was later imprisoned by Islamic State when the extremist group took over the city.

“We’re done with one battle, and we’re beginning another: a battle of building and developing relations with other countries,” said Hassan.

The now-emptied presidential palace, perched on a hilltop next to Damascus, remains as a monument to a vanquished regime. Designed by a Japanese architect and completed in 1990 under the rule of Assad’s father, the building is a relic of authoritarian architecture, with vast, cuboid halls.

The palace has at least two rooms for cabinet meetings: one above ground and one underground. The subterranean room is part of a bunker that appeared to be built for a last stand.

In the cabinet room, three stories beneath the palace in Syria’s Mount Qasioun, brass plates label the seats for the defense minister and various military commanders. At the head of the table, Assad’s place is marked: The Commander in Chief. The room is connected to underground living quarters, with a bedroom and bathroom, as well as accommodations for staff.

HTS fighters secured the palace after crowds of euphoric Syrians stormed into the complex on Sunday, carting away furniture and artwork. Some took videos of themselves as they stumbled into a garage full of sports cars, including Aston Martins and a Lamborghini.

The calm at the palace on Tuesday was part of a broader effort by HTS to avoid chaos during the transition to a new government. The rebels have sought to preserve many government institutions and keep some former regime police in place.

The rebel victory has the potential to alter the global balance of power, dealing a stinging defeat to Russia, which launched a punishing campaign of airstrikes in 2015 that helped push back rebel advances and rescue Assad’s regime from collapse. The opposition takeover also rolls back Iran’s footprint in the Middle East, cutting Tehran off from areas near its rival Israel and severing key supply routes to allied militias such as Hezbollah.

Assad’s defeat came when his allies were distracted with other troubles. Russia is mired in its full-scale invasion of Ukraine, while Iran has been bruised from Israel’s military offensive this year against Hezbollah, which intervened in the war on the side of the Assad regime.

There are already signs of the uncertain future that lies ahead. Israel said it moved its troops into a buffer zone next to the Israeli-annexed Golan Heights and carried out airstrikes on Syrian military assets. The North Atlantic Treaty Organization member Turkey is increasing pressure on Kurdish militants it views as terrorists, some of whom are allied with the U.S., pursuing a longtime political and military goal that puts it at odds with Washington.

A debate is beginning abroad about how to handle HTS, a U.S.- and U.N.-designated terrorist group that was once an ally of al Qaeda. The organization’s leader, Abu Mohammed al-Jawlani, has said he has given up extremism, and the group has articulated a vision for protecting minorities in Syria under its rule. The Biden administration has kept its distance from HTS, though some Western diplomats have argued that it should be stripped of its terrorist label.

In Damascus, distant explosions and celebratory gunfire could be heard. The ruins of military vehicles lay on the highway between Beirut and Damascus, some still smoldering.

Elsewhere along the road were signs of the lightning rebel attack that seized the capital. On the edge of Damascus, an abandoned Assad regime troop carrier stood on the side of the highway, its windows pierced by bullets. In the street lay a pile of army uniforms, evidence of how many government soldiers simply gave up in the final hours and days of the rebel advance.

Throughout the capital in recent days, Syrians tore Assad’s face off posters of the former leader. They toppled statues of his father across the country. They tore down the red, black and white flag of the regime, replacing it with the rebel banner.

Youssef al-Masri, a 54-year-old Islamic scholar from Damascus, was beaming when he stood on the edge of Umayyad Square on Tuesday. He had been shot in the chest, he said, during the initial uprising against Assad and traveled abroad for surgery. He later returned to the capital and remained there, he said, waiting for Assad’s fall throughout the war. He had brought his daughters to join the celebration of the dictatorship’s collapse.

“There are no words in Arabic or in any language to express the joy that is in our hearts after the end of 45 years of repression,” he said. “Today, we breathe.”

Lawmakers struggle to reach deal to avert government shutdown

Congressional negotiators are struggling to reach a deal to keep the government’s lights on past Dec. 20.

Text of a continuing resolution (CR) for a government funding package was expected on Sunday ahead of the looming shutdown deadline.

But lawmakers failed to release the text, with economic assistance for farmers emerging as an apparent last-minute sticking point.

Key players had indicated this week that the forthcoming CR, which keeps the government funded at current levels, would also include another one-year extension of the 2018 farm bill, as both sides have struggled to agree on a longer-term plan. But lawmakers had also ramped up talks of potential add-ons to provide economic assistance for farmers as part of the broader funding plan.

Sen. John Hoeven (N.D.), the top Republican on the subcommittee that oversees agricultural funding, said in a statement on Saturday that GOP leadership backed a proposed package of “$12 billion of relief for economic losses and $16 billion in weather-related assistance” that he was hopeful of being attached as part of the year-end stopgap funding deal.

“While we have kept this proposal clean of potentially partisan additions, we have not yet received the Democratic support we need,” he said at the time. “We encourage the nation’s farmers, ranchers, and agriculture stakeholders to let their representatives know how critical it is for the Continuing Resolution to include both economic and weather agriculture assistance for America’s producers.”

Meanwhile, Democrats took aim at Republicans over the sputtered talks.

Senate Agriculture Committee Chair Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.) and House Agriculture Committee ranking member David Scott (D-Ga.) said on Saturday that GOP leadership turned down a $10 billion offer, rejecting “needed economic assistance and increased conservation spending for decades.”

“For weeks, congressional Democrats have provided a pathway to a farm bill extension that will deliver tens of billions of dollars in economic assistance and investments in farm bill programs that farmers rely on,” they said.

“Their eleventh-hour offer fell short of what farmers need, shortchanged critical farm bill programs, and steals from critically needed assistance to address recent natural disasters. We can and should do both economic and disaster assistance, not pit one against the other.”

They also stressed the importance that the proposal be “paid for and does not take any funding away from the critical natural disaster aid that has been requested.”

The emphasis comes as the Biden administration has called on Congress to approve more $100 billion in disaster aid from Congress for a number of agencies, including the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the departments of Agriculture, Housing and Urban Development and Transportation.

Stabenow also told The Hill this week that she “found resources” to pay for the additional economic assistance, but wouldn’t offer specifics. However, Politico reported Democrats were hopeful of reinvesting billions of dollars in climate conservation funds from the party’s Inflation Reduction Act.

Congress is facing a quickly narrowing window to act on legislation to avert a shutdown. The House’s self-imposed 72-hour rule means the legislation must be released within the next couple days for the lower chamber to act on it and give the Senate time to pass it as well.

But the absence of further economic support for farmers could pose a hurdle to the forthcoming stopgap’s chances of passage.

Rep. Peter Sessions (R-Texas) said in a post this weekend that he “will vote NO to any Continuing Resolution that does not include economic support for our farm and ranch families.”

“I am distressed by the news that the planned government funding bill to reach the House floor this week will not include funding for our farmers and ranchers. The agricultural community is the backbone of not just TX-17, but our entire nation.”

House Agriculture Committee Chair Glenn “GT” Thompson (R-Pa.) also said he would not “relent” in getting farmer the support they need.

“For years, our farmers and ranchers have sounded the alarm on the looming financial crisis in rural America.”

Groups are also dialing up the pressure on Congress.

In a statement on Saturday, the American Soybean Association that it will “oppose any supplemental spending package that does not provide meaningful assistance to farmers who need help now to stay afloat in 2025 and beyond.”

“While talks continue on an extension of the farm bill and a package to fund the government, soy farmers and other agricultural groups have expressed they do not support a package that fails to acknowledge the economic realities farmers are facing.”

In making the case for the assistance earlier this week, Sen. John Boozman (Ark.), top Republican on the Senate Agriculture Committee, told The Hill that “the last two years have seen the greatest drop in income in history.”

“Our farmers right now are in a situation where, because input costs are so high and the commodity prices are so low they’re not breaking even, they’re losing money,” he said, adding the economic help could be key to helping farmers get “through this year.”

Netflix executives exhausted by Meghan Markle, Polo show bombs

The critics were swift, and brutal. ‘Unintentionally hilarious,’ said one, who half-wondered whether it was a spoof. ‘Tedious,’ was a further verdict – while, bruisingly, another just deemed it ‘tacky’.

These, then, are some of the responses to Prince Harry and Meghan’s newly released Netflix five-part series, Polo.

Little wonder that the streaming giant now appears to be distancing itself from the show. Indeed, there has been no serious attempt by Netflix to promote the series – something surely almost unheard of for a five-episode programme.

The company invested in no poster campaigns for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s latest project and its sole promotional attempt consists of a two-line statement from Harry on the streamer’s website.

‘This series offers audiences an unprecedented, behind-the-scenes look into the passion and determination driving some of the world’s elite polo players, revealing the grit behind the glamour,’ says the Prince. ‘We’re proud to showcase the true depth and spirit of the sport – and the intensity of its high-stakes moments.’

Yet we can reveal that, despite the streaming giant’s lack of promotional zeal for the project, in reality the couple were heavily involved with the making of the show, which is part of the Sussexes’ much-vaunted $100million deal with Netflix.

Executive produced by both Harry, 40, and Meghan, 43 – they also make a brief appearance onscreen in the documentary – the series reflects the prince’s enthusiasm for this elite sport.

And, indeed, behind the scenes, both he and Meghan were very hands-on when it came to the filming and editing of the show.

The pair, I am told, spent many, many hours poring over footage, offering advice on what should make the cut.

Fascinatingly, the show’s other executive producer Milos Balac worked on the hit FX/Disney+ documentary series Welcome to Wrexham, which followed Hollywood actors Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney’s takeover of the Welsh lower-league football club.

While undoubtedly a much less glamorous sport, it certainly made better viewing. Audience figures are a closely guarded secret, no less than four further series were commissioned. Disney+ is reported to make an astonishing £400,000 per episode.

Part of that success, as some critics have commented, is that Welcome to Wrexham had a gritty, underdog appeal which, despite Balac’s attempts to talk up how much the duke and duchess wanted to show polo’s more ‘down-to-earth’ side, is sorely missing from the Sussex series.

Although the duchess, in particular, was keen to highlight the fact that ordinary people can watch polo while having a picnic next to the match fields – a practice known as tailgating – there’s little getting away from the fact that the ponies can cost from £50,000 to £200,000, and elite players may use up to eight of them in a single game.

For his part, Balac said of the couple: ‘They were wonderful. They were extremely hands on. They really had a vision for trying to get polo to be accessible to a wider audience.

‘Prince Harry knows the sport inside and out. To be able to have him as someone to bounce ideas off and then also to get notes…

‘“Maybe if you edit it like this, the polo will just feel even more exciting.” Or “You have got to make sure that the point is played out like this because that’s how you keep it factually accurate.” A lot of projects have EPs [executive producers] who can give great notes, but it’s rare that you have someone who’s truly an expert in the subject that you are documenting.’

And it was Meghan, Balac said, who opened his eyes into the informality of the sport.

‘It was Meghan who really prepped me for how wonderfully casual polo can be. Sunday polo on Field One at the US Polo Center is a big to-do where people have champagne brunches and come with their beautiful outfits.

‘But the rest of the week, every polo match is actually so down-to-earth. It’s a lot of people pulling up in their pickup trucks and their cowboy boots, if not barefoot, with their dogs and their families and their kids to watch the game that they love.’ In the event, the series focuses only on the wealthy sportsmen who play the game. Perhaps, and not for the first time, Meghan’s slant got lost in translation.

It would seem that another reinvention for Harry and Meghan has not had the desired impact.

What a contrast to William and Kate who, despite their most challenging year yet, have been projecting an entirely more marketable image.

Indeed, the Princess of Wales was this week nominated for the prestigious Time Magazine person of the year title, while William has received many plaudits for his well-judged handling of President-elect Donald Trump when both recently attended the re-opening of Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris.

William also spoke warmly this week of spending Christmas Day with 45 members of his family.

Unsurprisingly, the question of whether Harry and Meghan will be welcome among the royal throng pulling crackers at Sandringham is something of a moot one.

While nobody is commenting officially – on either side of the Atlantic – the answer to that question is clearly ‘No’.

A royal source says: ‘The unspoken understanding is that an invitation is not on the cards.’

Next year, then, looks to be an uncertain year for the Sussexes, particularly for Meghan, who faces her greatest solo challenge of all – the launch of her Netflix cookery show and of her much-discussed lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard.

Indeed, after the apparent failure of Polo, so much hangs on her cookery show that some are calling it the ‘last chance’ for her to ‘save’ the couple’s lucrative Netflix deal – which is, after all, their chief source of funding.

One Californian source tells me: ‘It’s make or break. People say Netflix are exhausted. It’s so much work with her and, bluntly, the “deliverable” does not seem to be worth it.’

Another entertainment executive remarks: ‘Her show will have to be an enormous hit to turn around their deal and their reputations in this town.’

But if – and, as we shall see, it’s a big if – people start buying her crockery, biscuit mixes, rose wine and napkins, that might just be the sustainable revenue stream which the couple have been in desperate need of since Megxit, when, as Harry memorably complained: ‘My family literally cut me off financially.’

Well-placed sources indicate the launch of the show and the brand will happen in the first quarter of the year and, judging by the fact that it’s not part of any Netflix schedules in January, we must expect late February – after

Harry’s Invictus Games in Whistler, Canada – or even March for the launch.

A Netflix source says details of Meghan’s project are being shared with only a ‘tiny’ audience of executives in the US.

‘It’s a very tight circle,’ I am told. ‘Everything to do with her is kept completely secret.’

We do know the show will be very much made according to Meghan’s vision, all neutral shades and soft-focus camera lenses.

The shows – filmed not at her Montecito home but at a nearby mansion – have been directed by veteran Michael Steed, who worked with the revered late chef Anthony Bourdain.

The show-runner is Leah Hariton, who previously made Selena + Chef in 2020 featuring the actress Selena Gomez.

They have been produced for Netflix by The Intellectual Property Corporation, which is an off-shoot of Sony Pictures Television.

This is an interesting choice by Netflix as The IPC has also made a number of shows for Joanna Gaines, a likeable Texan who is the face of a hugely lucrative

lifestyle brand and who has just made her own cookery show. Sound familiar? Add the fact that brunette Gaines bears an astonishing resemblance to Meghan, and you can see why people have started openly comparing the two women.

It’s also fascinating to note that Netflix were desperate to sign Gaines and her husband, Chip, back in 2017. However, much to Netflix boss Ted Sarandos’s ire, they lost out to Warner/HBO, who offered them their own TV channel.

So striking are the parallels between the two women some believe Sarandos is betting big that Meghan will strike a chord with ordinary viewers like down-to-earth Gaines has.

They say the duchess will be his version of Gaines – although Meghan’s sophisticated vibe is far distant from Gaines’s down-home Texan charm. Sarandos said of Meghan in September: ‘I’ve been out with a lot of famous people before – the way that people react to Meghan is otherworldly.’

It will need to be. Because time is ticking. That big money Netflix deal for Harry and Meghan comes to the end of its five-year period in autumn next year, and Sarandos will want to see results.

However, well-placed Hollywood executives say that the deal will amount to nothing like $100 million because of the lack of content the couple have actually produced.

Notably, the Sussexes have failed to produce a single drama or movie – unlike their role models Barack and Michelle Obama, whose company Higher Ground has made the hit film Leave the World Behind and critically acclaimed Rustin.

Netflix have bought the rights to the chick-lit book Meet Me At The Lake for the Sussexes – an unusual move, as you would expect the producers to find the cash. But whatever stage the scripting is at, it has yet to enter production.

The same is true for the couple’s TV series retelling the story of Charles Dickens’s Great Expectations through a feminist lens with Miss Havisham as the heroine. Again, it has yet to enter production. Neither show, then, looks likely to be completed or broadcast before the Netflix deal is up for renewal.

In March it will be a whole year since the rather underwhelming ‘soft launch’ of her lifestyle brand American Riviera Orchard. So far there have been batches of jam and dog biscuits sent out to friends in numbered jars bearing its heraldic logo, one Instagram video in soft focus… and a slew of difficulties about its trademark with the US Patents and Trademarks Organisation.

Much hinges, then, on how the brand is received by the public. And sources are certain Meghan is determined to ‘own’ the project, as the duchess might put it herself.

I’m told: ‘She is the CEO of the American Riviera Orchard brand – she started out that way and that remains the case.’

However, my understanding is that many of the brand’s staff, who are separate from the couple’s media entity Archewell, joined the company directly from Netflix.

They may even still be being paid by Netflix, who are partnering with American Riviera Orchard, to launch the brand.

Netflix decline to comment in any way – and some sources say their link remains ‘unconfirmed’.

It is, though, perhaps significant that the chief marketing officer for Netflix, Marian Lee, follows the American Riviera Orchard Instagram page.

Another key fact to note is that the brand is being run separately, and by a separate team, to Archewell. Prince Harry has no involvement in it – it’s all down to the duchess.

With all that in mind, one can only hope for Meghan’s sake that she’s more at ease with pots and pans than polo ponies.

It is hypothesized that the drones are looking for something.

Drone Manufacturers are on saying they might be looking for radioactive signatures.

Do the plasma orbs emit radiation?

If so, are the drones looking for the plasma orbs?

If that is the case, then the drones are our guys, looking for the orbs who are an adversary.

We are looking for them with drones because according to FOIA documents released by the FBI, NSA, etc, similar orbs have not been so friendly in the past when confronted.

"Drone stories cause anxiety and pump cortisol into the patient, nurse. Luigi stories are pleasurable and rewarding and they pump dopamine. Alternate and cycle the drips. You want to create a natural, lifelike rhythm. It's a little tricky, it's something of an art, but just watch the monitors and you'll get the hang of it."

@SpartaJustice

CIA PROJECT SKY BEAM: In 2024 a global event will alter the course of mankind. The world will stand witness to a massive Alien invasion. Thousands of projected holographic Alien warships will blanket the skies. Real military crafts within the holograms will inflict actual damage.

As a result of all the chaos a One World Government will immediately be formed without any resistance from the people. This One World Government will be the New World Order. Once this happens we as a people will be doomed to enslavement and accelerated depopulation.

What have you learned about the last three years? You have learned that the Government has been lying to you for your entire life. You have learned that the Media has been lying to you for years and is controlled by the CIA. Who is the real enemy of humanity? Who controls the CIA, the Media and the Governments around the world? It is the members of the Committee of 300. It has always been their plan to reduce the population and to control the entire world.

The same Media, the same Government and the same companies like Disney, Netflix and Amazon who opposed the Sound of Freedom movie are now spreading around the world that there are Aliens. Remember what you have learned over the past few years. There is an agenda and reason for all of this. It is the 2030 Agenda to control the entire world and reduce the population. The truth is the biggest defense against evil.

Pharma testing yet another bioweapon in Africa again???

Mystery ‘dancing’ illness plagues hundreds in Uganda

The ‘Dinga Dinga’ illness mainly affects women and girls, health officials have said

Around 300 people have been infected with a mysterious ‘dancing’ disease in the East African nation of Uganda, health officials have said.

Locals call the illness ‘Dinga Dinga,’ which translates as ‘shaking like dancing’, the Daily Monitor reported on Friday. The name comes from the fact that the symptoms include fever and shaking which leads to difficulties in walking, it said.

For unknown reasons, those affected by the illness, which only became known to the health authorities last year, are mainly women and girls, according to health officials.

The outbreak, which started several months ago, is confined to the southwestern Bundibugyo District, which borders the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). No cases have been reported in other areas, the outlet said.

District Health Officer Kiyita Christopher told the Daily Monitor that there have so far been no deaths from Dinga Dinga.

He said the disease is mostly self-healing, adding that in difficult cases, the doctors successfully tackled it with antibiotics.

However, Christopher warned locals against turning to traditional medicine to cure the sickness.

"There is no scientific evidence that herbal medicine can treat this disease. We are using specific treatments, and patients usually recover within a week. I urge locals to seek treatment from health facilities within the district,” he stressed.

An 18-year-old girl said “she felt weak and paralyzed” after contracting Dinga Dinga.

"My body [was] shaking uncontrollably whenever I tried to walk. It was very disturbing. I was taken to Bundibugyo hospital for treatment, and thank God, I am now fine,” she said.

Samples from those infected have been taken in order to be sent to laboratories operated by Uranda’s Health Ministry for further analysts of the disease, according to the report.

Billionaire founder of Mango dies after falling 500ft into ravine on hike

The billionaire founder of high street fashion chain Mango has died after falling 500 feet down a ravine on a hiking trip outside Barcelona.

Isak Andic, 71, was walking with his son and other family members on a day trip in the Montserrat mountain range on Saturday.

Emergency services sent a helicopter and an ambulance to the scene but Andic was dead when they found him hours later.

Andic, who was the richest man in Catalonia and reported to be the fifth-richest in Spain, fell into the ravine while walking the path to the Salnitre caves, whose organic shapes inspired the design of Antonio Gaudi’s Sagrada Familia.

A guide told the El Pais newspaper that the area where the accident occurred, on a path which leads to the Montserrat monastery, could be difficult for hikers.

According to El Pais, Andic was walking with his partner, Estefanía Knuth, 51, a former professional golfer, and his son Jonathan, 43, an executive with Mango.

Andic also had two daughters, Judith and Sarah.

The Turkish-born businessman’s fortune was estimated at around £3.75 billion, having risen by £1.5 billion last year.

“It is with deep regret that we announce the unexpected death of Isak Andic, our non-executive chairman and founder of Mango, in an accident that occurred this Saturday,” said Toni Ruiz, the Mango chief executive.

“His departure leaves a huge void but all of us are, in some way, his legacy and the testimony of his achievements.It is up to us … to ensure that Mango continuesto be the project that Isak was ambitious and proud of.”

Salvador Illa Roca, the president of Catalonia’s government, said he was “dismayed by the loss” and described Andic as a “committed businessman” who “contributed to making Catalonia great and projecting it to the world”.

Andic moved with his family to the north-eastern Spanish region of Catalonia from Turkey in the 1960s and founded Mango in 1984.

Mango had a turnover of £2.6 billion in 2023 with 33 per cent of its business online and a presence in more than 120 markets.

USS Liberty: Candace Owens Makes Life-Changing Announcement that Could Save America

Candace Owens interviewed Phil Tourney, a survivor of the attack by Israel on the USS Liberty ship in 1967 that killed 34 crew members and wounded 171 more. Tourney explains that Israel’s bombing of the ship during the Israel’s Six Day War was no accident and that President Lyndon Johnson was complicit in the bombing and the cover-up. Tourney said that the purpose of sinking the USS Liberty was to blame the Arabs and bring the US into Israel’s war.

The survivors of the attack were threatened with prison and “worse”, implying they would be killed, if they ever spoke out about the attacks against them.

The attack was covered up and was reported to be a case of mistaken identity.

Tourney said that only three Congressmen, Pete McCloskey, Paul Finley and Jim Traficant spoke out against the attack on the US Liberty. He commended Representative Thomas Massie for recently revealing that Congress is controlled by Israel through AIPAC [American Israel Public Affairs Committee]. –JW Williams

A recent loud complaint about a gender identity book for children caused the Murfreesboro City School Board to take a recent meeting recess.

The picture book, "It Feels Good to Be Yourself," by writer Theresa Thorn and illustrator Noah Grigni "introduces the concept of gender identity to the youngest reader, according to a description from an Amazon website.

John Amanchukwu signed up to speak during public comments Tuesday, Dec. 10, about "October revenue," following the board's requirement that public comments only be about action agenda items.

Amanchukwu spoke, as recorded on Murfreesboro CityTV, with a packed audience that included supporters, including Rutherford County Board of Education member Caleb Tidwell.

“And how we use these funds matters because we want to put the best things before children," said Amanchukwu, who held up the book in question and began to read. “When you open the book it says, 'Some people are boys. Some people are girls. Some people are both. Neither are somewhere in between.'"

Tidwell has been a leader of the majority of the county board's efforts to remove 40 of the 196 books pulled from school libraries because of concerns the titles violate the state obscenity laws by being sexually explicit.

Ukrainian chef outrages Christians by filming show in iconic monastery

Evgeny Klopotenko shot part of a Christmas program in the Kiev Pechersk Lavra, in an episode that has been blasted as “sacrilege”

A renowned Ukrainian chef has come under fire after filming an episode of his culinary show in the Kiev Pechersk Lavra, which has been at the center of religious tensions in the country, with many accusing him of blasphemy. He insists, however, that the move was not intended to offend people,but only to promote Ukrainian culture.

The scandal erupted after Evgeny Klopotenko aired a Christmas special on Saturday, part of which took place in the dining hall of thecountry’s largest Orthodox monastery, which was erected in 1051. The episode focused on Ukrainian cuisine.

”While the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate (UOC) was [in control],I could only dream of this – filming… a Christmas episode about Ukrainian sacred dishes in the refectory of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra,”Klopotenko said. He explained that the religious site and its archives are essentially the only remaining source of knowledge about the country’s ancient cuisine, including dumplings filled with carp caviar, onions and millet, and pea jelly.

The Kiev Pechersk Lavra has historically been administered by the UOC, which came under an unprecedented crackdown after the outbreak of the conflict with Russia, with the Ukrainian authorities accusing the church of having ties to Moscow, which the UOC has denied.

Kiev has been trying for months to wrestle control of the Lavra from the UOCwhile allowing the Orthodox Church of Ukraine (OCU), which is considered schismatic by both the UOC and the Russian Orthodox Church, to hold services there.

The Christmas show sparked a massive outcry on social media, with some denouncing whatthey called a “horror” and “shame for the entire Ukraine.” “An Orthodox believer cannot bear to watch this,” one commenter said.

“Do you even understand where you were? It is disgusting,” another wrote.

Aleksandr Klimenko, a UOC priest, called the show a “sacrilege,” adding that he was not surprised by this type of offense coming from the “new masters” of the monastery.He noted that the refectory is a place where the clergy quietly eat and pray to the Lord. “This is… not a place for TV shows,” he said.

Klopotenko dismissed the criticism, saying the show was filmed in accordance with church etiquette and after consultation with the clergy, and that they used the refectory only to show the food, not to cook it.

”I’m sorry that some people had negative feelings about it. My goal was not to hurt the feelings of the faithful; on the contrary, I wanted to share with you something kind and bright,”the chef said.

https://www.rt.com/russia/609414-ukraine-chef-outrage-food-show-church/

The Transfiguration Cathedral, one of the oldest Orthodox churches in Ukraine and which dates back to the early 11th century, has been turned into a makeshift movie theater, according to an MP.

The issue has been highlighted by Artyom Dmitruk, a Ukrainian lawmaker known for his public opposition to the Kiev government’s crackdown on the country’s largest Christian denomination, the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC). The MP was ultimately forced to flee the country over his views and is now being sought by Ukrainian authorities.

Dmitruk has cited imagery circulating online to back up his assertions.The building was seized by authorities last year.

“[Vladimir] Zelensky’s dogs, having seized the most ancient cathedral in Ukraine, set up a cinema in it and removed all the icons,” Dmitruk wrote on his Telegram channel, claiming that people attending the ‘cinema’ have been charged 20 hryvnias (about 50 cents) for entry.

Ukraine has been gripped by religious tensions throughout most of its modern history, with multiple entities claiming to be the country’s true Orthodox Church.

Why the Intel Agencies Want to Track Your Every Transaction and Throw Roger Ver in Jail for Life

Roger Ver is facing life in prison and says that the government is pursuing him because he revealed how the US government worked in secret to subvert cryptocurrency and prevent economic freedom in his book, Hijacking Bitcoin. Governments will lose power if they are not controlling the currency. Ver says that if Bitcoin were being spent as intended, governments would lose control over the money supply, which would increase people’s freedom. He warns that a digital financial prison is being built with Bitcoin due to lack of privacy as transactions may be monitored. In El Salvador, where Bitcoin is the national currency, the government can see all transactions and can freeze accounts. CBDC is not needed if Bitcoin can be tracked and used to freeze accounts.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) World and the Cashless Society

No one has been able to identify the source of the Bitcoin algorithm that was published in a white paper in 2008, but the true origin of cryptocurrency began with the CIA and Israel’s Mossad.

Stablecoins are digital versions of fiat currencies that can be programmed and tracked as easily as any central bank digital currency (CBDC).

The Trump administration appears to embrace the “Bitcoin dollar” surveillable stablecoins that can replace cash. US leaders are not opposing the AI world that is being built around us. Greg Reese said that Peter Thiel, the head of Palantir, is a proxy of the CIA. The Pokemon game was used for geospatial mapping so that robots can navigate in the real world. Robot dogs are being used at Mar-a-Lago by the Secret Service.

A Kilometer High Cliff on Comet Churyumov - Gerasimenko

This kilometer high cliff occurs on the surface of a comet. It was discovered on the dark nucleus of Comet Churyumov - Gerasimenko (CG) by Rosetta, a robotic spacecraft launched by ESA, which orbited the comet from 2014 to 2016. The ragged cliff, as featured here, was imaged by Rosetta early in its mission. Although towering about one kilometer high, the low surface gravity of Comet CG would likely make a jump from the cliffs by a human survivable. At the foot of the cliffs is relatively smooth terrain dotted with boulders as large as 20 meters across. Data from Rosetta indicates that the ice in Comet CG has a significantly different deuterium fraction and hence likely a different origin than the water in Earth's oceans. The probe was named after the Rosetta Stone, a rock slab featuring the same text written in three different languages that helped humanity decipher ancient Egyptian writing.

Another Pandemic Is Inevitable, and We’re Not Ready

President-elect Trump’s picks to lead the nation’s top public health agencies also don’t inspire confidence.

Every week or so, scientists issue another warning that the H5N1 bird flu is inching closer to exploding into a pandemic. Despite having contended with a pandemic that broke out less than five years ago, the US has no solid plan to handle a new one — nor have our leaders done anything to incorporate the lessons learned from the government’s less-than-ideal handling of Covid-19.

Too many Americans died from Covid because the public health community took too long to issue warnings, was slow to create tests to assess the situation, and was sluggish in shifting its response to fit the data on airborne transmission. The much-criticized lockdowns could have been less disruptive and saved more lives had they been periodically adjusted as data changed on who was most at risk and which activities were riskiest.

Already, some of the same mistakes can be seen in the response to H5N1, which started in poultry before a new variant began infecting the nation’s dairy cows. The US Department of Agriculture announced last week that it would start sampling the nation’s milk supply to test for the virus. California instituted a recall of some raw milk and raw milk products after samples tested positive. But there’s a lot more that could be done to reduce the odds of this situation leading to a pandemic.

Moreover, President-elect Donald Trump’s picks to lead the nation’s top public health agencies — the officials who would be in charge of any pandemic response — have prompted concerns among scientists and health experts. They include Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a vaccine skeptic and raw milk enthusiast, for the top job of secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services. He also has ties to the California producer whose farm was the subject of the state’s recall after several batches of raw milk products tested positive for the virus. The farmer told Politico he’s been asked to apply for the position of “raw milk adviser” at the Food and Drug Administration.

Trump’s pick to run the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, former Representative Dave Weldon, pushed false theories about childhood vaccines as a member of Congress and was a critic of the CDC and its vaccine program. And to lead the National Institutes of Health, Trump has named Jay Bhattacharya, author of the Great Barrington Declaration, which criticized the government’s Covid response and promoted the theory — based on bad science — that the pandemic would end quickly through herd immunity. Marty Makary, who Trump picked to head the FDA, promoted the same notion of herd immunity as he promised that even without vaccination, Covid would disappear in several months.

We likely won’t know how these officials might handle the next crisis until their Senate confirmation hearings early next year……..

Shocking Scene: Trump Advisor Alex Bruesewitz Collapses on Stage During ‘Young Republican Club’ Gala, Sparks Health Concerns

Alex Bruesewitz, a prominent advisor to former President Donald Trump and a rising star in Republican politics, collapsed on stage during the 112th annual New York Young Republicans gala Sunday night.

The event, held in New York City, was a star-studded affair featuring high-profile Trumpworld figures like Steve Bannon, Dan Scavino, Nigel Farage, and Corey Lewandowski.

Alex Bruesewitz, a young conservative activist and Trump advisor, gave a speech at a New York Young Republicans Club event.

Bruesewitz highlighted the New York Young Republican Club’s early endorsement of Trump’s 2024 presidential bid and acknowledged several prominent conservative figures in attendance.

While he was about to introduce the next speaker and emphasize his loyalty to Donald Trump, witnesses reported that Bruesewitz began slurring his words and struggling to complete his thoughts, visibly disoriented.

His final words, “But the sham impeachment…” were cut short as he slowly collapsed behind the podium. Gasps erupted from the audience as several attendees rushed to his aid.

Raheem Kassam, editor of The National Pulse, spoke with Bruesewitz and provided a lighthearted update. “I talked to our friend Alex Bruesewitz, and you know what he said to me? He goes, ‘Did I at least look cool?’ I said, ‘Alex, you use gravity like I see nobody use gravity before in their lives.’”

Conservative commentator and influencer Jack Posobiec, who was backstage at the time, quickly took to social media to reassure supporters.

“Just talked to Alex Bruesewitz backstage. He is getting checked out by medical after having a brief fainting spell onstage. All levels are normal. Only thing he asked me was, “Did it look cool?” He’ll be just fine.”

After the incident, Trump called in to share a message with Bruesewitz and the attendees.

“I know that Alex is going to be fine. Hello, everybody. I know Alex is going to be fine because he’s a tough son of a gun. There’s no doubt about that. I want to say hello to Alex because he’s a very special guy,” Trump wrote.

Ukraine will have to trade land for peace – EU state’s president

A “realistic” ceasefire deal will involve some territorial losses for Kiev, Peter Pellegrini has

The Ukraine conflict will not be resolved until Kiev accepts some “partial territorial losses,”Slovak President Peter Pellegrini has said. Pellegrini and Prime Minister Robert Fico have both called on Russia and Ukraine to enter immediate peace talks.

Speaking to Slovakia’s STVR broadcaster on Sunday, Pellegrini said thatdaily updates from the front line have convinced him that Ukraine cannot hope to achieve its territorial goals– the return of Donetsk, Lugansk, Kherson, Zaporozhye and Crimea – by force.

“When it comes to peace, I believe that we need to remain realistic,” he told the network. “Today, probablyno sane person in Europe believes that it will be possible to achieve peace without some partial territorial losses for Ukraine.”

The president then called on Ukraine and Russia to sit down at the negotiating table as soon as possible.

Pellegrini’s comments echo those made by Fico earlier this week. Speaking to Brazil’s Folha de Sao Paulo news outlet, the Slovak prime minister said that it isnecessary to be “at least a little realistic” and to “admit that Russia will never leave Crimea, Donetsk and Lugansk.”

After taking office last year, Fico immediately halted military aid from Bratislava to Kiev, and vowed to veto Ukraine’s potential accession to NATO. He has also accused “Ukrainian Nazis and fascists” of starting the conflict by “murdering the Russian population of Donbass,”and hascondemned his fellow EU leaders for prolonging the fighting with military aidand sanctions on Moscow.

What is the result? The Russians are gaining more and more territory, the sanctions are not working, and Ukraine is no longer strong enough for possible negotiations,” he told Folha de Sao Paulo. Fico also predicted that Kiev will likely be “betrayed” by its Western backers andpossibly end up losing a third of its territories without being invited into NATO, receiving security guarantees only in the form of a foreign troop presence in the country.

Moscow maintains that any settlement must begin with Ukraine ceasing military operations and acknowledging the “territorial reality” that it will never regain control of its former regions. In addition, the Kremlin insists that the goals of its military operation – which include Ukrainian neutrality, demilitarization, and denazification – will be achieved.

Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio Shuts Down Airspace After Mysterious Drone Incursions (AUDIO)

Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, one of America’s most vital military installations, faced an unsettling breach of its airspace over the weekend, reigniting concerns about the security of critical U.S. defense facilities.

Mysterious drones buzzed over the Ohio base, forcing the temporary closure of its Class Delta airspace late Friday night and into Saturday morning, The War Zone first reported.

The base, home to the Air Force Research Lab, Air Force Material Command, and the National Air and Space Intelligence Center, is a cornerstone of U.S. military operations. Its cutting-edge research and intelligence missions make it a prime target for espionage or malicious activity.

On the night of December 13-14, 2024, Wright-Patterson AFB experienced significant Unidentified Aerial System (UAS) activity, requiring the closure of Class Delta airspace.

Air traffic control issued warnings and instructions to aircraft, including a medical flight (Med Flight 8), to exercise extreme caution and maintain higher altitudes to avoid the drones.

Yet, according to base spokesman Bob Purtiman, the origin of the drones remains unidentified, and their intentions are officially deemed “not malicious.”

“I can confirm small aerial systems were spotted over Wright Patterson between Friday night and Saturday morning,” base spokesman Bob Purtiman told The War Zone on Sunday.

“Today leaders have determined that they did not impact base residents, facilities, or assets. The Air Force is taking all appropriate measures to safeguard our installations and residents,” he added.

He continued that the drones “ranged in sizes and configurations. Our units are working with local authorities to ensure the safety of base personnel, facilities, and assets.”

A Notice To Airman (NOTAM) detailed the temporary closure and highlighted the “heavy UAS activity” in the vicinity per The War Zone.

“Q) ZID/QFALC/IV/NBO/A/000/999/3949N08402W005 A) KFFO B) 2412140400 C) 2412140800 E) WRIGHT PATTERSON CLASS D AIRSPACE CLOSED DUE TO SECURITY THREAT M1133/24 NOTAMN

Categories of radiation sources

Category 1 sources, if not safely or securely managed, would be likely to cause permanent injury to a person who handled them or was otherwise in contact with them for more than a few minutes. It would probably be fatal to be close to this amount of unshielded material for a period of a few minutes to an hour. These sources are typically used in radiothermal generators, irradiators, and radiation teletherapy.

Category 2 sources, if not safely or securely managed, could cause permanent injury to a person who handled them or was otherwise in contact with them for a short time (minutes to hours). It could possibly be fatal to be close to this amount of unshielded radioactive material for a period of hours to days. These sources are typically used in industrial gamma radiography, high- and medium-dose rate brachytherapy, and radiography.

Category 3 sources, if not safely or securely managed, could cause permanent injury to a person who handled them or was otherwise in contact with them for hours. It could possibly—although it is unlikely to—be fatal to be close to this amount of unshielded radioactive material for a period of days to weeks. These sources are typically used in fixed industrial gauges such as level gauges, dredger gauges, conveyor gauges, spinning pipe gauges, and well-logging gauges.

Category 4 sources, if not safely managed or securely protected, could possibly cause temporary injury to someone who handled them or was otherwise in contact with or close to them for a period of many weeks, though this is unlikely. It is very unlikely anyone would be permanently injured by this amount of radioactive material. These sources are typically used in fixed or portable gauges, static eliminators, or low-dose brachytherapy.

Prisoner CNN helped free from Syrian prison was actually notorious Assad-regime torturer: report

The prisoner CNN helped free from a secret facility in Syria was actually a notorious member of Bashar al-Assad’s forces known to torture those who refused to pay him off, according to a shocking local fact check.

The network went viral last week with footage of the startled prisoner being led from the prison by journalist Clarissa Ward, who called it “one of the most extraordinary moments I have witnessed” in her 20 years of reporting.

But “independent and unbiased” fact-checkers Verify-Sy published a detailed report Sunday saying that the seemingly innocent prisoner was actually Salama Mohammad Salama — a first lieutenant in Syrian Air Force Intelligence with a long history of alleged war crimes.

“We have subsequently been investigating his background and are aware that he may have given a false identity,” CNN acknowledged to The Post. “We are continuing our reporting into this and the wider story.”

He gave his name as Adel Ghurbal and claimed to have been arrested by government authorities three months earlier — and said he had no idea the Assad regime had collapsed.

Verify-Sy noted, however, that he appeared “well-groomed, and physically healthy, with no visible injuries or signs of torture — an incongruous portrayal of someone allegedly held in solitary confinement in the dark for 90 days.”

He also “did not flinch or blink even when gazing up at the sky” despite having said he had not seen sunlight for three months.

NASA DAVINCI Mission’s Many ‘Firsts’ to Unlock Venus’ Hidden Secrets

Dec 16, 2024

NASA’s DAVINCI — Deep Atmosphere Venus Investigation of Noble gases, Chemistry, and Imaging — mission embodies the spirit of innovation and exploration that its namesake, Leonardo da Vinci, was famous for.

Scheduled to launch in the early 2030s, DAVINCI will explore Venus with both a spacecraft and a descent probe.

DAVINCI’s probe will be the first in the 21st century to brave Venus’ atmosphere as it descends from above the planet’s clouds down to its surface.

Two other missions, NASA’s VERITAS and ESA’s (European Space Agency) Envision, will also explore Venus in the 2030s from the planet’s orbit.

The DAVINCI spacecraft will study Venus’ clouds and highlands during two flybys.

It also will release a spherical probe, about 3 feet wide, that will plunge through the planet’s thick atmosphere and corrosive clouds, taking measurements and capturing high-resolution images of the Venusian surface as it descends below the clouds.

Here are some of DAVINCI’s coming “firsts” in Venus exploration:

Exploring Solar System’s One-of-a-Kind Terrain

The DAVINCI mission will be the first to closely explore Alpha Regio, a region known as a “tessera.”

So far found only on Venus, where they make up about 8% of the surface, tesserae are highland regions similar in appearance to rugged mountains on Earth.

Previous missions discovered these features using radar instruments, but of the many international spacecraft that dove through Venus’ atmosphere between 1966 and 1985, none studied or photographed tesserae.

Thought to be ancient continents, tesserae like Alpha Regio may be among the oldest surfaces on the planet, offering scientists access to rocks that are billions of years old.

By studying these rocks from above Alpha Regio, DAVINCI scientists may learn whether ancient Venus had continents and oceans, and how water may have influenced the surface.

Photographing One of the Oldest Surfaces on Venus

The DAVINCI probe will capture the first close-up views of Alpha Regio with its infrared and optical cameras; these will also be the first photos of the planet’s surface taken in more than 40 years.

With surface temperatures reaching 900° F and air pressure 90 times that of Earth’s, Venus’ harsh environment makes exploration challenging, while its opaque atmosphere obscures direct views.

Typically, scientists rely on radar instruments from Earth or Venus-orbiting spacecraft to study its terrain.

But DAVINCI’s probe will descend through the atmosphere and below the clouds for a clear view of the mountains and plains. It will capture images comparable to an airplane’s landing view of Earth’s surface.

Scientists will use the photos to compile 3D maps of Alpha Regio that will provide more detail than ever of Venus' terrain, helping them look for rocks that are usually only made in association with water.

Unveiling Secrets of Venus’ Mysterious Lower Atmosphere

The DAVINCI mission will be the first to analyze the chemical composition of Venus’ lower atmosphere through measurements taken at regular intervals, starting from approximately 90,000 feet above the surface and continuing until just before impact.

This region is critical because it contains gases and chemical compounds that may originate from Venus’ lower clouds, surface, or even subsurface.

For example, sulfur compounds detected here could indicate whether Venusian volcanoes are currently active or were active in the recent past.

Noble gases (like helium or xenon), on the other hand, remain chemically inert and maintain stable concentrations, offering invaluable clues about Venus’ ancient history, such as the planet’s past water inventory.

By comparing Venus’ noble gas composition with that of Earth and Mars, scientists can better understand why these planets — despite forming from similar starting materials — evolved into dramatically different worlds.

Moreover, DAVINCI’s measurements of isotopes and trace gases in the lower atmosphere will shed light on Venus’ water history, from ancient times to the present, and the processes that triggered the planet’s extreme greenhouse effect.

State-of-the-Art Technology to Study Venus in Detail

Thanks to modern technology, the DAVINCI probe will be able to do things 1980s-era spacecraft couldn’t.

The descent probe will be better equipped than previous probes to protect the sensitive electronics inside of it, as it will be lined on the inside with high-temperature, multi-layer insulation — layers of advanced ceramic and silica fabrics separated by aluminum sheets.

Venus’ super thick atmosphere will slow the probe’s descent, but a parachute will also be released to slow it down further.

Most Earth-friendly parachute fabrics, like nylon, would dissolve in Venus’ sulfuric acid clouds, so DAVINCI will have to use a different type of material than previous Venus missions did: one that’s resistant to acids and five times stronger than steel.

Ex-Nasa engineer shot dead in his car while taking smoke break during Warriors game

UPDATED: 22:39 ET, Sun, Dec 15, 2024

California authorities are probing the tragic death of a former NASA engineer who was shot while watching a Golden State Warriors game on television Wednesday night.

Earl Rhue, 75, was at a family friend's house with his daughter in Oakland on Wednesday evening when they tuned into the Warriors game, according to local Fox affiliate KTVU.

During a break to smoke outside in his car around 7.30pm on the 2700 block of 9th Avenue, gunshots were heard by his family members.

"We heard a gunshot," recounted Maria Rosa Keys, a family friend, to KTVU. "But the television was on really loud."

She recalled hearing cries for "help" from outside shortly before seeing police lights flashing as officers arrived at the scene, signaling to her that Rhue had been struck by gunfire.

Rhue was taken to the hospital with serious injuries but was tragically declared dead later that night.

His daughter, Maria Martens, who was also present during the incident, expressed her shock to KTVU.

"Shocked to know that's what happened," Martens said. "And how fast it happened."

Keys remembered Rhue fondly, noting that just six months prior, he had spoken at her late husband Calvin's life celebration, highlighting the close friendship between Rhue and Calvin.

Rhue, a former NASA engineer and University of California, Berkeley graduate, was described as a "Renaissance man," by Keys.

Besides his work for NASA, he was also a puppeteer for Children's Fairyland and most recently worked as a food delivery driver.

The shooting occurred when an unidentified suspect attempted to carjack Rhue as he sat in his car smoking. Keys added that Rhue had always been a pillar of strength and comfort for her family.

Keys said, "In addition to the brilliant mind he had, he also just loved people," and "What happened last night was so tragic we're still reeling from it, and we will be for a long time."

The OPD Homicide Section is urging anyone with information to contact them at (510) 238-3821 or the TIP LINE at 238-7950.

Videos or photos that could aid the investigation should be sent to cidvideos@oaklandca.gov.

Invitation to NATO still a long way off – former Ukrainian FM

The US-led bloc will likely offer Kiev membership in 10-20 years, according to Dmitry Kuleba

Ukraine is unlikely to receive an invitation to join NATO in the next decade, which significantly hinders the possibility of quickly finding a peaceful resolution to the conflict with Russia, former Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba has told The Times.

According to Kuleba, the incoming administration of US President-electDonald Trump will have a hard time negotiating a peace deal in Ukraine due to the “fundamental differences” between Moscow and Kiev.

Trump has repeatedly claimed that he will be able to settle the Ukraine conflict “within 24 hours” of entering office next month, though he has yet to explain how. Some have suggested that the president-elect could use future US military and financial aid to Ukraine as a means of getting both sides to the negotiating table.

Kuleba, who recently took up a plum position at a Harvard-based international relations research center, has claimed that a peace deal between the two countries is currently impossible and that “there will be no quick negotiations.”

One of the key reasons for this, according to the former minister, is that NATO will likely offer Ukraine a formal invitation to join the bloc in 10 to 20 years, which he said would be rejected by Kiev.

He suggested that one solution theUkrainian leadership could find acceptable is to have an international peacekeeping force consisting of British and French troopsdeployed to the country while it awaits NATO membership.

Kuleba noted, however, that this proposal is unworkable and that the money for this would be better spent on additional weapons for Ukraine.

“The estimate for the peacekeeping mission is 40,000 troops. Try to stretch 40,000 troops along a 1,500km front line. It will be a very thin red line,” he told the outlet.

Moscow has repeatedly stressed that it would never accept Ukrainian membership in NATO, as this would fundamentally threaten Russia’s national security. Last week, Deputy Foreign MinisterSergey Ryabkov noted that Kiev’s ambition to become a member of the US-led bloc was one of the main reasons Moscow launched its military operation in 2022.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov recently stated in an interview with American journalist Tucker Carlson that the “key principle is non-bloc-status of Ukraine” and “absolutely” no NATO membership for Kiev.

(Ukraine had been told as far back to the early 2,000s they cannot join the EU, nor NATO until their corruption has been eliminated. The corruption has only gotten worse over the years. But Ukraine thinks they will be welcome because they sacrificed their people and country to this folly of fighting Russia. The corruption is off the charts now.)

National Space Day, Italy is ever more protagonist

16 December 2024

Today, we celebrate the “Italian Space Day”, which commemorates the date of the launch of the San Marco 1 satellite in 1964, which made Italy the third nation in the world to put its own satellite into orbit.

Two articles, written by Fabrizio Morviducci, in the “Quotidiano Nazionale – Nazione – Carlino – Giorno”, are dedicated to the Space technologies of Leonardo, which ten years ago was the protagonist, with its instruments, of another record: the first landing on a comet with the Rosetta mission.

The article “National Space Day, Italy is ever more protagonist” highlights how many services on Earth benefit from Space technologies.

And with digitalisation, the potential offered by the exploitation of data from Space is multiplying.

According to Massimo Comparini, Managing Director Space Business Unit of Leonardo and Chairman of Thales Alenia Space Supervisory Board, “The Space sector is an undisputed Italian excellence to which Leonardo contributes in a fundamental way with very high-tech products and services.

Space is an important domain in the technological evolution of our society, and we must address many development opportunities and new challenges linked to the evolution of the sector, in which Europe and Italy can play a leading role."

The article “Towards the search for new worlds. Leonardo’s 26 telescopes are ready” is dedicated to the “technological eyes” that will be used in the satellite of the ESA’s Plato (PLAnetary Transits and Oscillations of stars) mission to study planets outside the solar system, similar to Earth, in which life forms may have developed.

Built by Leonardo at its Campi Bisenzio site (Florence), the telescopes are the result of highly advanced optical engineering skills, also based on the use of “digital twins” in the definition phase of the production process that has allowed for speeding up the times and industrial-scale production of an instrument that is normally produced in a single unit.

Could mouse sperm orbiting Earth be the future of humanity?

10:36 PM EST, Sun December 15, 2024

It’s been a tough few years on planet Earth, with a pandemic ripping across the globe, and an onslaught of record-breaking heatwaves and natural disasters.

Events like these are good examples of why humans need to find a new place to live, according to proponents of the futuristic idea.

Outposts on the moon or Mars could act as an insurance policy against extinction due to catastrophe or self-destruction, they say.

But there’s a lot we don’t know about our ability to survive and thrive in space – including if we can reproduce.

Now, freeze-dried mouse sperm, stored aboard the International Space Station (ISS) in a radiation protection box, could help give us a better understanding of mammals’ ability to procreate off Earth.

When the specimens get back to terra firma next year, Teruhiko Wakayama, a professor at the University of Yamanashi’s Advanced Biotechnology Centre, will study them to determine the impact of the space environment, and if they can be used to create healthy offspring.

Back in his laboratory in Japan, Wakayama is developing a device that will allow astronauts to conduct rodent in vitro fertilization (IVF) aboard the ISS in the coming years. Ultimately, the experiments could help save humankind, he says.

“Our aim is to establish a system for safely and permanently preserving Earth’s genetic resources somewhere in space – whether on the moon or elsewhere – so that life can be revived even if Earth faces catastrophic destruction.”

It may sound straight out of a sci-fi movie, but Wakayama has long been pushing the boundaries with his reproductive studies. In 1997, he and another academic developed a novel method that they used to clone the world’s first mouse from adult cells.

He led a study on the development of mouse embryos in space – something that had previously only been done with creatures like amphibians and fish.

And he and his team pioneered a freeze-drying method used to send mouse sperm to the ISS, where it was stored in a freezer for up to six years.

When the samples got back to Earth, the researchers rehydrated them and produced healthy baby mice.

From that study, they determined that freeze-dried sperm could stay viable for 200 years in space. Although that’s impressive, Wakayama says it’s “absolutely not long enough for our future.”

With his latest space specimens, he’s using a new device to protect sperm stored at room temperature, from radiation, to see if it might be possible to store samples in space indefinitely.

From “Chix in Space” to cosmic cockroaches

For decades, scientists have been launching Earthly creatures into space to study how microgravity and cosmic radiation impact biological processes – including reproduction.

In 1989, for example, 32 fertilized chicken eggs were sent into orbit to study how they’d develop without gravity, in an experiment sponsored by the American fast-food chain KFC, and nicknamed “Chix in Space.”

Tadpoles born on the Space Shuttle Endeavour in 1992 became the first vertebrates to spend the first few days of life in space. There, they swam erratically and struggled to find air bubbles to breathe.

And in 2007, a cockroach named Nadezhda (which means “Hope” in Russian) gave birth to 33 offspring conceived in orbit. They were mostly normal, aside from abnormally dark exoskeletons.

“We have seen that most of the specific phases of the reproductive cycle can occur in space, at least in a species or two, not always completely successfully,” said Virginia Wotring, a professor at the International Space University, a private non-profit institution in Strasbourg, France, devoted to space education.

Medaka fish, a small fish native to rice paddies, marshes and ponds in Japan, and snails, have completed the entire cycle of reproduction in space, Wotring said.

“Going to mammals is the next natural step, to see what parts of it will work,” she added.

When it comes to mice, the freeze-dried mouse sperm Wakayama is currently storing aboard the ISS will return to Earth in 2025 for study.

“Our goal is to preserve [reproductive cells] at room temperature forever,” he says.

Sustaining space dwellers

Humans are a long way from becoming a multi-planet species, but we are making progress.

In late 2026, the NASA-led Artemis program will return astronauts to the moon for the first time since 1972, where it hopes to develop an ongoing presence.

And if SpaceX founder Elon Musk’s predictions are accurate, the first crewed mission to Mars could be on its way in the next four years.

Scientists already know that space travel can wreak havoc on the human body. Cosmic radiation can cause mutations in DNA that increases the risk of cancer and causes other ailments.

Microgravity can cause vision problems, a weakened immune system, and muscle and bone loss. That means that there are more pressing concerns than reproduction, says Wotring.

“There is other information that we need right now in order to care of the astronauts we’re sending to space now,” she says. “That has to take priority.”

But Wakayama believes his work will be crucial as humans spend more time in space.

Damaged DNA in sperm and eggs, for example, could pass genetic abnormalities on to the next generation, he says.

And without the directional pull of gravity, a fertilized embryo might not be able to develop properly.

“The formation of the nervous system and the development of limbs … we don’t know if this will happen properly in microgravity, where there is no up or down,” he says.

He adds that the work could be replicated and built upon for other species, which could be helpful for transporting animals like dogs for companionship and livestock like cattle for food, to other planets.

Wakayama plans to stick to studying mice. His IVF project has been accepted by Japan’s space agency, but the device that will be used to complete the IVF is still under development.

He hopes that it will be ready for launch to the ISS within two years.

“In sci-fi movies, people live on other planets and babies are born, but we don’t even know if that’s possible yet,” he says.

He hopes his experiments can help shed light on whether humans can reproduce and develop normally in the harsh environment of space.

“If we can confirm that, it will bring reassurance,” says Wakayama. “And if it doesn’t work, we need to understand how to address that challenge.”

December full moon 2024: Cold Moon puts on a dazzling show for skywatchers worldwide

December 16, 2024

The December full moon captivated skywatchers worldwide as it lit up the cold winter skies over the weekend.

A full moon occurs when the moon is on the opposite side of Earth from the sun.

December's moon officially reached full illumination at 4:02 a.m. EST (0902 GMT) on Dec. 15, but it will still appear relatively full for a few days around the peak.

Known as the Cold Moon, December’s full moon earned its name from the long, frigid nights of winter in the Northern Hemisphere.

Rising on Dec. 15, it appeared large and bright as it climbed above the horizon, offering a breathtaking sight for night sky watchers and photographers alike.

To celebrate this celestial spectacle, we've rounded up some of the most stunning full moon photos from around the world.

EU vows to challenge Musk’s Starlink dominance – media

A deal has been signed on a €10 billion satellite constellation project, according to a consortium

The European Commission and a consortium of three EU companies have announced the signing of a contract worth over €10 billion ($10.4 billion) to develop a new satellite network.The project aims to provide a homegrown alternative to Elon Musk’s Starlink, Bloomberg reported.

The signing was announced on Monday by the SpaceRISE consortium, comprising French satellite operator Eutelsat, Spain’s Hispasat, and Luxembourg-based operator SES.

Dubbed IRIS2, the project aims to “enable Europe’s strategic communications autonomy,”SpaceRISE said in a statement. The network of 290 satellites is expected to be fully operational by 2030. It will provide internet service to governments and militaries as well as private customers.

The EU is investing €6 billion to develop the project, while the consortium will commit €4.1 billion and the European Space Agency will provide €550 million.

“There is this narrative in the industry that Starlink has won and everybody else is dead, right? That’s not true,” Bloomberg quoted SES Chief Executive Officer Adel Al-Saleh as saying.

The EU’s new defense and space commissioner, Andrius Kubilius, hailed the signing of the contract as “a major step forward”for the EU’s security. Europe is “under threat in many ways,” Kubilius claimed, as quoted by Bloomberg.

“In times of war, we can’t afford to lose connectivity,” he added. Kubilius, a former Lithuanian prime minister, secured his post by stoking fears of a Russian threat and calling for a significantly greater investment in defense, Politico wrote in November.

The plans for IRIS2 have come under fire from Germany due to worries about the project’s cost. In May,Economy Minister and Vice-Chancellor Robert Habeck described the system’s price tag as “exorbitant” and demanded that the project be delayed.

Politico has also cited industry experts as warning that the project is too expensive and risks being outdated compared to SpaceX’s network. Starlink boasts more than 6,000 satellites and claims to beam internet to customers in some 100 countries.

Director General of the European Space Agency Josef Aschbacher stated at the time thatthough budgets are tight, the EU has to press ahead with building an encrypted communication satellite system.

Iris2 is the EU’s third flagship space project, after the Galileo satellite navigation system and the Copernicus Earth monitoring satellite constellation.

(This is too funny, the EU will waste money on inferior products than Musk's to teach him a lesson!)

Europe signs contracts for IRIS² constellation

December 16, 2024

The European Commission and European Space Agency signed contracts with an industrial consortium Dec. 16 to develop a secure connectivity constellation with a total cost of 10.6 billion euros ($11.1 billion).

In a ceremony in Brussels, officials from the European Commission and ESA, along with the chief executives of Eutelsat, Hispasat and SES, signed contracts to develop the Infrastructure for Resilience, Interconnectivity and Security by Satellite (IRIS²) constellation of more than 290 satellites slated to enter service by early 2031.

IRIS² will provide secure communications for European governments for security and civil applications. It will also provide commercial satellite services, such as residential broadband.

At the signing ceremony, Andrius Kubilius, Commissioner for Defence and Space for the European Union, emphasized the need for Europe to have its own constellation.

“We are under threat. Our communications are under threat,” he said, citing examples of undersea cables being cut and navigation signals jammed by Russia. “IRIS² will give us the ability to connect even in a hostile environment.”

“We cannot afford to be too dependent on countries or companies from outside the European Union,” he added later in his remarks.

The constellation also supports Europe’s space industry in a time when some key companies are struggling to compete globally.

“We are increasing the resilience and autonomy of the Union and its states while also strengthening the satellite communications capabilities and boosting the competitiveness of the European space industry,” said Josef Aschabacher, director general of ESA, said at the ceremony.

Under the contracts, the EU will contribute six billion euros to IRIS², of which two billion was funded in the current multiannual financial framework (MFF) that runs through 2027.

The other four billion euros of EU’s contribution will come in later MFF agreements through the 12-year IRIS² contracts that extend to 2036.

ESA is providing 550 million euros that was allocated at its 2022 ministerial conference. The SpaceRISE consortium, led by Eutelsat, Hispasat and SES, will contribute 4.1 billion euros.

An official said in a background briefing that each SpaceRISE partner is contributing a minimum of 500 million euros.

That funding will go towards the development and launch of satellites in three orbits. Eighteen satellites will operate in medium Earth orbit (MEO) at an altitude of 8,000 kilometers, providing Ka-band services.

A “LEO High” shell at about 1,200 kilometers will include 264 satellites with Ku- and Ka-band services.

The system will also include 10 or more satellites in a “LEO Low” shell between 400 and 750 kilometers intended to support incubation of future technologies.

The IRIS² constellation will interoperate with Govsatcom, an EU program to provide communications services using geostationary satellites operated by member states.

Officials said Govsatcom will begin initial services in 2025 using excess capacity on more than 10 GEO satellites from five member states.

The MEO shell of satellites could be augmented by additional commercial satellites by SES, whose O3b system operates in similar orbits, while Eutelsat could add satellites to the LEO High shell.

However, the current Eutelsat OneWeb constellation will not be included in IRIS².

The next step for IRIS² is a one-year design phase that will also include “consolidation” of the supply chain of contractors for the satellites.

A critical design review is planned for early 2028, with launch of the satellites projected to take place in 2029 and 2030.

The constellation will require 13 Ariane 64 launches, 10 for the LEO High shell and 3 for the MEO shell. The handful of LEO Low satellites could be launched on other vehicles through the upcoming European Launcher Challenge.

The constellation now under development is a far cry from earlier proposals that projected a total cost of six billion euros and beginning of services in 2027.

“We have no time to lose. We are already late, my friends,” said Timo Pesonen, director general of the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Defence Industry and Space, at the signing ceremony.

“Let’s agree now: no delays, no requests for extra funding,” he said, to laughter from the audience.

OTHER CAT 3 MISSING RADIOACTIVE MATERIALS EVENT REPORTED NOV '24 but occurred Q4 '22 in TX

AGREEMENT STATE REPORT - LOST SOURCES

The following report was received from the Texas Department of State Health Services (the Department) via phone and email:

"On November 15, 2024, the Department was notified by the licensee that the location of three 5 mCi (original activity in October 2021) Ge-68 rod sources could not be determined. The sources were supposedly shipped back to the manufacturer in the fourth quarter of 2022, but no receipt record was available from the manufacturer to show the sources were received. The missing paperwork was discovered during an inventory verification audit in May of 2024 by the consulting physicist. Since that time, there were many staff changes. The new technologist had been working to clean up issues and has tried to contact all the parties involved, but could not find the paperwork. Consequently, the licensee declared them lost and reported them as such to the Department on November 15, 2024. The licensee stated the sources do not pose a risk of additional exposure to any worker or member of the public. Additional information will be provided in accordance with SA-300."

Texas Incident Number: 10144

Texas NMED Number: TX240043

THIS MATERIAL EVENT CONTAINS A 'Less than Cat 3' LEVEL OF RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL

Sources that are "Less than IAEA Category 3 sources," are either sources that are very unlikely to cause permanent injury to individuals or contain a very small amount of radioactive material that would not cause any permanent injury. Some of these sources, such as moisture density gauges or thickness gauges that are Category 4, the amount of unshielded radioactive material, if not safely managed or securely protected, could possibly - although it is unlikely - temporarily injure someone who handled it or were otherwise in contact with it, or who were close to it for a period of many weeks.

2 Massachusetts men arrested for flying drone 'dangerously close' to Boston airport

December 16, 2024 7:13am EST

Two Massachusetts men who flew a drone "dangerously close" to Logan International Airport in Boston are facing charges, police say.

Robert Duffy, 42, of Boston’s Charlestown neighborhood and Jeremy Folcik, 32, of Bridgewater were taken into custody late Saturday night on Long Island, which is located on the approach to the airport, according to the Boston Police Department.

"The incident began earlier that evening, at 4:30 PM, when a Boston Police Officer specializing in real-time crime surveillance detected an Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) operating dangerously close to Logan International Airport," police said in a statement.

"Leveraging advanced UAS monitoring technology, the Officer identified the drone’s location, altitude, flight history, and the operators’ position on Long Island."

"Members of the Boston Police Harbor Patrol Unit were dispatched to Long Island and located three individuals inside the decommissioned Long Island Health Campus.

Upon attempting to make contact, the suspects fled on foot," police added. "Two of the three individuals were apprehended and identified as Duffy and Folcik.

During the investigation, a drone was discovered inside a backpack carried by Duffy."

Investigators believe the third individual fled the island – which is part of the Boston Harbor Islands – on a "small vessel."

Duffy and Folcik are now facing charges of trespassing, although the Boston Police Department noted that more charges and fines could follow.

"The Boston Police Department reminds recreational drone operators of the importance of adhering to Federal Aviation Administration safety guidelines.

Operators are prohibited from flying drones over people or vehicles and must be aware of airspace restrictions," Boston Police added.

"Even small drones pose significant risks, including the potential for catastrophic damage to airplanes and helicopters. Near-collisions can cause pilots to veer off course, putting lives and property at risk."

Police also said that because of the "serious risks posed by the drone’s proximity to Logan’s airspace," the Department of Homeland Security, Massachusetts State Police, the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force, the Federal Communications Commission and Logan Airport Air Traffic Control were contacted to help with the response.

Adams denied matching funds in blow to re-election campaign

The city’s Campaign Finance Board denied public matching funds to Mayor Eric Adams’ re-election campaign, dealing a blow to his bid by depriving him of millions of dollars he had counted on receiving — at least for the time being.

“After thoroughly reviewing all available information, including details of the indictment of Mayor Adams, the board has determined that there is reason to believe the Adams campaign has engaged in conduct detrimental to the matching funds program, in violation of law,” CFB board chair Frederick Schaffer said during a Monday morning meeting. Schaffer said Adams’ campaign has also failed to provide documentation that the board had asked for.

“Accordingly, Mayor Adams’ campaign for re-election has failed to demonstrate eligibility for public funds payment at this time,” Schaffer said. He did not elaborate about whether Adams could become eligible for public funds at some point before the June 2025 primary.

Adams had been expecting to receive more than $4 million through the program, which encourages grassroots contributions by providing an 8-to-1 match for all donations by New York City residents up to $250. The mayor stopped actively fundraising months ago, believing he had already secured the maximum $8 million he could legally spend for next year’s Democratic primary.

Now, Adams may need to start soliciting campaign money once again — while also fundraising for his legal bills. His campaign had no immediate comment.

Adams’ September indictment accused him of defrauding the matching funds program by soliciting money in the names of false “straw” donors for both his 2021 and 2025 campaigns. And the mayor has been accused of myriad other irregularities — CFB auditors have flagged his campaign for failing to properly report clusters of “bundled” donations and not disclosing required information about donors, among other issues.

Officials from the CFB had acknowledged in recent weeks that Adams might be denied matching funds. At a Dec. 4 City Council hearing where lawmakers pressed CFB to deny the mayor any taxpayer dollars, Paul Ryan, the board’s director, said he and his colleagues would make “judgment calls” when it came to certain campaigns.

Adams appeared to anticipate the CFB’s vote, hosting an event in Puerto Rico earlier this month that marked a return to the fundraising circuit. Notably, Politico reported, the Dec. 10 fundraiser encouraged guests to donate up to $3,700, which is more than the allowed maximum for campaigns receiving matching funds — suggesting Adams may opt out of the program and pivot to raising large-dollar donations instead.

Monday was the first of eight scheduled rounds of matching funds payments that CFB will dole out before the 2025 primary.

Only one of Adams’ mayoral challengers received a matching funds payment on Monday: former Comptroller Scott Stringer, who received $2 million. Current Comptroller Brad Lander announced last week that his campaign had missed a paperwork deadline and would not be eligible, but he said he expects to make up the difference when the CFB makes its next awards in January.

Other candidates have not yet raised the minimum $250,000 from at least 1,000 city residents to be eligible, City & State reported.

Drone sighting shuts down WPAFB for hours Friday

Updated: Dec 16, 2024 / 08:01 AM EST

An unexpected security concern over the weekend shut down Wright Patterson Air Force Base for hours over the weekend.

A spokesperson for the 88th Air Base Wing confirmed that drones were spotted flying over and near the campus on Friday, shutting the base down for four hours.

The shutdown ended early Saturday morning.

“We are taking all appropriate measures to safeguard Wright-Patterson and the residents, said Robert Purtiman with the 88th Wing.

“You know, our units continue to monitor the airspace and are working with local authorities to ensure the safety of, again, our base personnel facilities and assets.”

The drones spotted were small, unmanned and did not disrupt operations on the base according to reports.

Their presence has raised security concerns, though it is not clear if these sightings are connected to the potential car-sized flying drones reported on the east coast.

The topic of drones and concerns over their use is one being discussed across the country.

As of Oct. 2024, there are nearly 800,000 drones registered nationwide.

“We need to know who’s behind it,” said Florida State Representative Mike Waltz.

“The administration has repeatedly assured people that they are safe,” said Minnesota Senator Amy Klobuchar.

“However, one, we need a briefing for the members of the Senate to figure out what’s going on here. Two, we need more transparency.”

The Federal Aviation Administration is of the belief that these incidents are becoming so frequent that more strict rules on drone usage are necessary.

The FAA is also advocating for tougher penalties for those who break usage laws.

Cloward Pivin

Cloward-Piven strategy - fundamentally transforming America

What is the Cloward-Piven strategy?

The Cloward-Piven strategy was developed in 1966 by Americans Richard Cloward and Frances Fox Piven - both sociologists and political activists. The Cloward-Piven strategy focused on overloading the United States public welfare system in order to precipitate a crisis, which would ultimately lead to replacing the welfare system with a national system of "a guaranteed annual income and thus an end to poverty".

An ancillary consequence of the strategy includes shoring up of the Democrat Party, which at the time was splintered by pluralistic interests. Another side effect would be relieving local and state governments of public welfare burdens, since the burden would be shifted to the federal government - in other words, in a manifestation of socialism. Taxpayers, of course, would cover the cost in either case.

Cloward and Piven focused primarily on redistribution of income, stating that full enrollment in welfare programs:

"would produce bureaucratic disruption in welfare agencies and fiscal disruption in local and state governments" that would: "…deepen existing divisions among elements in the big-city Democratic coalition: the remaining white middle class, the working-class ethnic groups and the growing minority poor. To avoid a further weakening of that historic coalition, a national Democratic administration would be constrained to advance a federal solution to poverty that would override local welfare failures, local class and racial conflicts and local revenue dilemmas."…

The ultimate objective of this strategy - to wipe out poverty by establishing a guaranteed annual income - will be questioned by some. Because the ideal of individual social and economic mobility has deep roots, even activists seem reluctant to call for national programs to eliminate poverty by the outright redistribution of income.

Near-term effects of the Cloward-Piven strategy

In a new 2010 introduction to the original article, Frances Fox Piven wrote in The Nation:

Our objective was not, as later critics of the Glenn Beck variety later charged, to propose a strategy to bring down American capitalism. We were not so ambitious. But we did think that the minority poor and their allies might create sufficient disturbance to force reforms in the American income support programs. And we were not entirely wrong.

Political commentator James McWhorter wrote in his 2006 book Winning the Race that the rise in the welfare state after the 1960s could be attributed to the Cloward Piven strategy. He reported that the strategy unfortunately "created generations of black people for whom working for a living is an abstraction."

Whether or not the above point is wholly true, the strategy has effected change, as noted by Piven.

Long-term effects of the Cloward-Piven strategy

The strategy, while originally intended to bring about a socialistic guaranteed national income, remains a viable way to transform an entire nation. Indeed, many of the changes we see in America today are consistent within the framework of the Cloward-Piven strategy. A few examples are provided below:

US Nuclear Reg Commission Release Report Confirming nuke material lost

This begs a lot of questions.

Why are drones being spotted in so many different states?

What was the state of origin?

Lost in transit in NJ?

What was the destination state?

The International Atomic Energy Agency's Code of Conduct on the Safety and Security of Radioactive Sources defines the five categories for radiation sources to help ensure that sufficient controls are being used to achieve safety and security:

Category 1 sources, if not safely or securely managed, would be likely to cause permanent injury to a person who handled them or was otherwise in contact with them for more than a few minutes. It would probably be fatal to be close to this amount of unshielded material for a period of a few minutes to an hour. These sources are typically used in radiothermal generators, irradiators, and radiation teletherapy.

Category 2 sources, if not safely or securely managed, could cause permanent injury to a person who handled them or was otherwise in contact with them for a short time (minutes to hours). It could possibly be fatal to be close to this amount of unshielded radioactive material for a period of hours to days. These sources are typically used in industrial gamma radiography, high- and medium-dose rate brachytherapy, and radiography.

Category 3 sources, if not safely or securely managed, could cause permanent injury to a person who handled them or was otherwise in contact with them for hours. It could possibly—although it is unlikely to—be fatal to be close to this amount of unshielded radioactive material for a period of days to weeks. These sources are typically used in fixed industrial gauges such as level gauges, dredger gauges, conveyor gauges, spinning pipe gauges, and well-logging gauges.

Category 4 sources, if not safely managed or securely protected, could possibly cause temporary injury to someone who handled them or was otherwise in contact with or close to them for a period of many weeks, though this is unlikely. It is very unlikely anyone would be permanently injured by this amount of radioactive material. These sources are typically used in fixed or portable gauges, static eliminators, or low-dose brachytherapy.

Category 5 sourcescannot cause permanent injury. They are used in x-ray fluorescence devices and electron capture devices.

Didn't PLANEFAG post an image of a nuke sniffer conducting a repeated rectangular pattern on the east coast several weeks ago? Is the time frame and/or area related? (Haven't found that post yet.) Nuke sniffer planes seem to be for radiation in air. Would this item be detected with a nuke sniffer planes?

Is the massive drone response appropriate given the item(s) lost?

Mystery Drones Could Be Trying to Find 'Radioactive Material'—Aerospace CEO

Dec 16, 2024 at 6:30 AM EST

The recent epidemic of reported drone sightings across New York and New Jersey could be due to potential "gas leaks" or "radioactive material," one subject matter expert has said.

Reports of mysterious drone sightings in multiple states have drawn widespread attention from lawmakers and members of the public in recent weeks.

John Ferguson, the CEO of Saxon Aerospace, a drone manufacturer in Kansas, weighed in on the topic in a TikTok post that has gone viral.

The FBI said it has received more than 3,000 tips regarding drone sightings, with the majority of these reported observations happening at night.

In his nine-minute video, Ferguson offered an "assessment of the drones," saying the only reason an unmanned aircraft would be flown at night was if its operator was "looking for something."

"My own guess is that these drones are not nefarious in intent. If they are, they are, but I doubt it.

But if they are drones, the only reason why they would be flying, and flying that low, is because they're trying to smell something on the ground," Ferguson said.

He added that the drones could be searching for gas leaks or pockets of radiation. He also said he believed the drones were seeking something "very important."

In a series of follow-up videos, Ferguson said many of the drones appeared to be compliant with federal regulations and reiterated his theory.

Newsweek contacted Ferguson for comment via TikTok outside normal business hours.

The absence of concrete answers as to the origins of the unmanned aerial vehicles has prompted some lawmakers to accuse government agencies of concealing information, and the vacuum has led to the propagation of theories as to what the sightings could mean.

One of the more outlandish explanations is the Project Blue Beam conspiracy theory, which claims that global elites plan to stage a fake alien invasion.

The theory, proposed by Canadian journalist Serge Monast in the 1990s, alleges that this covert operation would establish a totalitarian world government by faking otherworldly or supernatural events using advanced technology.

In the wake of the drone sightings, the conspiracy theory has seen a revival online, with influential social media accounts posting about it and garnering millions of views.

On Sunday, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas suggested that a Federal Aviation Administration rule change in September 2023 could be a reason behind the uptick in drone sightings.

"In September of 2023, the Federal Aviation Administration, the FAA, changed the rules so that drones could fly at night," the Biden administration official told ABC News' This Week.

Mayorkas continued, "And that may be one of the reasons why now people are seeing more drones than they did before, especially from dawn to dusk."

Middlemen Are Profiting off the Broken US Pharma System

Story by Helen Santoro

• 9mo • 8 min read

Pharmacy benefit managers push expensive medications and slash drug reimbursement rates, pocketing the profits for themselves. Congress looked set to regulate these shadowy middlemen — but $50 million in industry lobbying later, the effort has stalled.

Lawmakers from both parties and thirty-nine state attorneys general joined forces to stop the shadowy corporate middlemen behind rising drug prices and the death of independent pharmacies. Now these reform efforts are in peril, following nearly $50 million in industry lobbying — including tens of thousands to congressmembers who sponsored reform legislation.

These largely unregulated middlemen, called pharmacy benefit managers, serve as intermediaries between insurers and pharmaceutical manufacturers, determining which drugs insurers will cover and how much they cost. But they are incentivized to opt for the most expensive medicines and slash drug reimbursement rates to maximize profit, hurting both patients and small pharmacies.

As Federal Trade Commission chair Lina Khan just declared at a White House roundtable on the matter, these “dominant gatekeepers” have “outsized power to decide how people do or don’t receive the lifesaving prescription drugs they depend on.”

Concerns about pharmacy benefit managers, or PBMs, have reached such a level that lawmakers from both parties have introduced more than twenty federal bills to curb these companies’ power, and late last month, more than three quarters of the nation’s state attorneys general sent a letter to Congress urging action on them.

But days after the letter, it was revealed that Congress may not include any of the reforms in the next federal funding package, which allocates money to health programs and services including Medicare and Medicaid. This comes after PBMs spent a combined $47 million on lobbying in 2023.

Meanwhile, these companies are actively stonewalling state and federal investigations into their practices.

“It is disheartening that Congress is as dysfunctional as they are and the stakes [of PBM reform] rests on what gets put into federal spending bills,” said Colorado attorney general Phil Weiser, one of the attorneys general who signed the letter to Congress. “There is strong bipartisan support for this reform, and if this can’t get into a bipartisan spending package, I don’t know what can.”

While big pharmacies, insurers, and PBMs often like to blame one another for high drug prices, in reality they’re all part of the same corporate scheme. The three major PBMs are owned by health care behemoths — CVS Health, Cigna, and UnitedHealth — that together have considerable control over both the pharmacy and insurance markets. This means these conglomerates run nearly every stage of the pricing process with hardly any checks on prescription drug costs.

The proposed laws would combat high drug prices by requiring PBMs to charge flat service fees under Medicare plans; increase transparency around pharmaceutical payments to PBMs; and ban PBMs from charging Medicaid and other providers more than they pay pharmacies for drugs and pocketing the difference, a practice known as spread pricing.

Lobbying on the bills came primarily from the three major pharmacy and insurance companies that dominate the PBM industry. The Pharmaceutical Care Management Association, a lobbying group that represents PBMs, also spent $15.4 million lobbying on PBM legislation and other matters last year, according to lobbying records.

“It was a gut punch, I was sick, I was speechless,” said Brandi Chane, who owns a local pharmacy outside of Fort Worth, Texas, of Congress’s potential inaction on PBM reform efforts. “You’ve got to be kidding me. We’ve shown [Congress] over and over and over about the danger of PBMs and we’re not going to do anything now?”

In response to a request for comment, Greg Lopes, vice president of public affairs and communications at the Pharmaceutical Care Management Association, wrote in an email, “This year, Congress has held an unprecedented number of hearings focused on PBMs as Big Pharma continues its extraordinarily high advertising spending to blame-game others for high drug costs. It is imperative to educate lawmakers on the value PBMs provide to the health care system by lowering prescription drug costs and helping improve health outcomes.”

CVS Health, Cigna, and UnitedHealth did not respond to requests for comment.

>Middlemen Are Profiting off the Broken US Pharma System

Profits for the Middleman

PBMs were created in the 1960s to negotiate drug prices and coverage with pharmaceutical manufacturers and insurers. In theory, these negotiations should help individuals enrolled in health insurance plans save money by finding the best prices for consumers. In reality, these middlemen often do the opposite.

That’s because PBMs are incentivized to deter insurers from covering generic and cheaper medicines, as they are paid based on the discount they arrange with pharmaceutical manufacturers, otherwise called a rebate, which critics say is effectively a legalized kickback. Consequently, the more expensive the drug, the larger the rebate, and the more money that ends up in PBMs’ pockets.

“PBMs have an incentive to pick a drug that comes with a larger rebate, so that they get a larger cut, even if the drug is more expensive overall,” Zach Freed, advocacy and outreach manager at the nonprofit advocacy group American Economic Liberties Project wrote in a 2022 analysis.

Freed cited a 2021 Senate investigation that discovered PBMs use their aggressive negotiating tactics to “extract more generous rebates, discounts, and fees from insulin manufacturers,” which, Freed noted, contributed to “skyrocketing insulin prices and discouraged price decreases for the drug.”

The problem with PBMs goes all the way to the top.

The three largest PBMs, which control 80 percent of the prescription drug market, are owned by the country’s biggest health care companies. CVS Caremark is owned by pharmacy colossus CVS Health, which also owns the insurer Aetna. Express Scripts, meanwhile, is owned by the massive insurer Cigna; while OptumRx is owned by insurance giant UnitedHealthcare.

With so much power, PBMs have evolved from “cost savers” to companies that profit at nearly every stage of the drug supply chain.

"The problem with PBMs goes all the way to the top."

Such integration also hurts smaller independent pharmacies by jacking up fees and cutting back on drug reimbursements that PBMs pay out for prescriptions, which these stores depend on to stay afloat. For Chane, the local pharmacy owner in Texas, the reimbursements she receives often don’t even cover the cost of purchasing and dispensing medications.

Thanks to these companies’ power, pharmacies are unable to negotiate better reimbursement rates. When a pharmacist in rural Minnesota, who requested to remain anonymous, asked for higher reimbursement rates from Aetna Medicare, the company responded in an email that they had to sign the contract as is in order to stay in-network.

“Unfortunately, the terms of this agreement are non-negotiable,” noted an Aetna representative in an email we reviewed. “Please note refusal to sign the amendment will result in termination from the P3 network.”

Overall, the drug pricing system is “perversely incentivized to pay off the middlemen while squeezing profits out of every single other part of the supply chain,” said Monique Whitney, executive director of the advocacy group Pharmacists United for Truth & Transparency.

Although most states have passed legislation to regulate PBMs, these companies often argue that a lack of federal regulation “limit[s] states’ authority to regulate PBMs,” the attorneys general wrote in their recent letter to Congress. In some cases, these companies have purposefully obstructed state laws by withholding information from state regulators.

Last May, the Federal Trade Commission expanded an investigation into how PBMs are jacking up prescription drug prices and hurting local pharmacies by steering patients away from independent pharmacies, charging arbitrary fees, and decreasing reimbursements. This comes after years of agency support for PBMs.

Despite federal orders to cooperate, the agency now says that the PBMs have refused to turn over key documents and data.

Reaching a Breaking Point”

Alongside the federal government’s investigation, a total of twenty bills related to PBMs have been introduced in the House and the Senate during the 2023–2024 congressional session.

Four of them passed Senate committees last year, including the Pharmacy Benefit Manager Transparency Act of 2023 that would require PBMs to pass all of their rebates to the insurance plan or payer and provide full disclosure of drug costs and pharmacy and health plan reimbursements. The Pharmacy Benefit Manager Reform Act, which passed the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions, would prohibit PBMs from charging insurance plans more than they reimburse pharmacies.

Seven bills passed House committees, including the Lower Costs, More Transparency Act, which would require PBMs to disclose their spending, drug rebates, and pharmacy fees associated with covered drugs.

But at the same time, CVS Health, Cigna, UnitedHealth, and the lobbying group Pharmaceutical Care Management Association were lobbying on PBM-reform efforts, including “issues related to drug pricing transparency” and “drug pricing reforms.” They also sent money directly to lawmakers.

Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA), who led the Lower Costs, More Transparency Act, received a total of $13,500 in lobbying contributions from the political action committees of CVS Health, Cigna, UnitedHealth, and the Pharmaceutical Care Management Association, according to data from OpenSecrets. She received the most contributions of any House member from the health service industry during the 2023–2024 session.

Reps. Frank Pallone (D-NJ) and Jason Smith (R-MO), two of the bill’s cosponsors, received $15,000 and $25,000, respectively. Rep. Gus Bilirakis (R-FL), who wrote two measures that were included in the legislation, received $10,000. All three legislators were among the top twenty representatives who received contributions from the health services industry.

Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA) introduced the Protecting Seniors from High Drug Costs last year, which sought to prohibit health plans and PBMs from overcharging Medicare beneficiaries for prescription drugs. He received $15,000 from CVS Health, Cigna, and UnitedHealth via their political action committees.

Rep. Ann Kuster (D-NH), who led the Pharmacy Benefits Manager Accountability Act that would increase oversight and regulation of PBMs, received $11,000 last year from the same companies’ political action committees and the Pharmaceutical Care Management Association. She was also among the top twenty recipients of health service industry contributions.

"Following a lobbying blitz, Congress may abandon efforts to include PBM reforms in the upcoming federal funding package."

Other legislators who have spoken out against targeting PBMs to reduce drug costs, including Sens. Rand Paul (R-KY.) and Kyrsten Sinema (I-AZ), along with Reps. Kevin Hern (R-OK) and Eric Burlison (R-MO) received a combined $56,500 from these political action committees during the 2023–2024 session.

Reps. Pallone, Smith, Bilirakis, Kuster, and Sen. Casey did not respond to a request for comment. Rep. Rodgers’s legislative aide responded but did not provide a comment.

Following this lobbying blitz, and disagreements about PBM reforms that sources say have arisen between the House and the Senate, news outlets reported that Congress may abandon efforts to include any of these reforms in the upcoming federal funding package, which now must be passed by March 22 to avert a federal shutdown.

“We cannot understate the urgency or the need to enact immediate PBM reforms,” Pharmacists United for Truth and Transparency wrote in a letter to Congress a day after lawmakers showed signs of punting PBM reform. “We speak plainly and without hyperbole when we say community pharmacies are collectively reaching a breaking point. Numerous small business pharmacies are running out of time and will be forced to permanently close their doors if relief is not forthcoming soon.”

The number of independent pharmacies dropped by nearly 50 percent from 1980 to 2022 — and industry experts predict that if nothing is done to address the problem, even more local pharmacies will close by the end of 2024.

Chane, for one, doesn’t know how much longer she can keep her pharmacy’s doors open.

“How do I pay my staff?” said Chane. “How do I keep the lights on? How do I continue to service these people in my community that have depended on us for generations? If I close my doors, where are they going to go?”

New York deploys 'state-of-the-art drone detection system' as officials make admission on foreign involvement

Updated: 06:44 EST, 16 December 2024

Alejandro Mayorkas' Department of Homeland Security is set to deploy drone detection systems to New Jersey and New York after weeks of drone sightings across the region.

Both Mayorkas and New York Governor Kathy Hochul confirmed the plans, as Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer - who represents New York - made the request Sunday.

Hochul wrote: 'In response to my calls for additional resources, our federal partners are sending a drone detection system to New York.'

'I am grateful for the support, but we need more. Congress must pass a law that will give us the power to deal directly with the drones,' she warned.

Mayorkas, who confirmed the federal government does not have the authority to take out drones in an interview Sunday, said some form of help is coming.

'We understand why residents are concerned. In response and in close coordination with the [New Jersey State Police] and other law enforcement, [Homeland Security] quickly deployed personnel and technology to support.'

He clarified that so far, despite many theories to the contrary, DHS has found no link between the drones and any foreign government.

DHS is also assisting the FBI in their probe into the drones.

DailyMail.com has reached out to the Department of Homeland Security for comment.

Schumer pleaded for assistance on Sunday, writing: 'I'm pushing for answers amid these drone sightings. I'm calling for @SecMayorkas to deploy special drone-detection tech across NY and NJ.'

'And I'm working to pass a bill in the Senate to give local law enforcement more tools for drone detection,' Schumer added.

Schumer is asking for Robin Radar Systems to provide the drone detection because it is '360-degree technology.'

'If the technology exists for a drone to make it up into the sky, there certainly is technology that can track the craft with precision and determine what the heck is going on, and that's what the Robin does,' he added.

He was retweeted on X by New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy, who wrote to the federal government on Friday himself for assistance.

Schumer wants the federal government to use a recently declassified radio wave technology in New York and New Jersey.

The radio wave detector can be attached to a drone or airplane and can determine whether another flying object is a bird or a drone, read its electronic registration, and follow it back to its landing place.

Schumer said state and local authorities do not have the authority to track drones.

Because officials can´t say with certainty who is responsible for the sudden swarms of drones over parts of New Jersey, New York and other eastern parts of the U.S. - or how they can be stopped - leaders of both political parties have begun to demand better technology and powers to deal with the drones.

'There´s a lot of us who are pretty frustrated right now,' Rep. Jim Himes, D-Conn., the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, said on Fox News Sunday.

''We don´t know' is not a good enough answer,' he said.

It comes after President-elect Donald Trump suggested that the unmanned aircraft be shot down.

'Mystery Drone sightings all over the Country. Can this really be happening without our government's knowledge,' Trump posted on Friday amid outcry over the ongoing mystery.

'I don't think so! Let the public know, and now. Otherwise, shoot them down!!!' the former and future president wrote on his social media site Truth Social.

Asked whether this was a possibility, Mayorkas told ABC News on Sunday that in order to be able to take more action, his agency needs to be given more powers.

'With respect of the ability to incapacitate those drones, we are limited in our authorities,' Mayorkas told This Week host George Stephanopoulos.

'We have certain agencies within the Department of Homeland Security that can do that and outside our department,' he added. 'But we need those authorities expanded, as well.'

He divulged that there are more than 8,000 drones flown every day in the U.S., including civilian and government for both work and leisure activities.

Mayorkas claims a new law allowing for drones to be flown in the U.S. at night is likely what is leading to an uptick in reports of these sightings.

It appears so far that officials were caught off guard by the mysterious nationwide drone sightings and are working to identify them and address the concern.

GateHouse Media will buy Gannett, owner of the Press-Citizen and Des Moines Register, for $1.4 billion

Iowa newspapers published by Gannett and GateHouse Media. — illustration by Jav Ducker

GateHouse Media will buy Gannett Co. Inc., USA Today reported on Monday afternoon. USA Today is the flagship newspaper for Gannett, which also owns the Press-Citizen and Des Moines Register. The two companies agreed to a “cash-and-stock deal worth about $1.38 billion and financed in part with new private-equity debt,” according to USA Today.

GateHouse is the largest owner of daily newspapers in the country with 156 dailies, mostly in small markets, as well as 328 weeklies. Gannett, which owns 109 daily papers across the country, has the largest circulation of any American newspaper chain. Between them, the two companies publish one out of every six daily newspapers in the country, with a combined daily print circulation of approximately 8.7 million.

The combined holdings of the merged companies will create a concentration of media control unprecedented in American history.

“We believe this transaction will create value for our shareholders, greater opportunities for our employees, and a stronger future for journalism,”Mike Reed, CEO of GateHouse’s parent company, New Media Investment Group, said in a statement

The two companies estimate they “can save $275 million to $300 million in annual costs within 24 months,” according to USA Today.

GateHouse is a holding company for New Media Investment Group, which is controlled by Fortress Investment Group, a New York City-based investment management firm.Fortress is owned by SoftBank, a Japanese holding company, best known for its ownership stakes in tech companies.It has spent more than $1 billion since 2014 to acquire newspaper groups in small markets. In Iowa, it currently owns two daily newspapers (the Ames Tribune and The Hawk Eye in Burlington) and five weeklies (the Boone News-Republican, Dallas County News, Hamburg Reporter, Nevada Journal and Perry Chief).

The Register and the Press-Citizen are the only Iowa newspapers Gannett owns.

GateHouse has pursued an aggressive strategy of consolidation with the newspapers it owns. The most recent example occurred in May, when GateHouse consolidated 50 Massachusetts newspapers into just 18. A leaked memo from GateHouse executives said “this consolidation will reduce production expenses and represents a necessary next step in our evolution, while creating a stronger product for both our subscribers and advertisers.”

In his Monday statement on the purchase agreement, Reed said, “We believe this transaction will create value for our shareholders, greater opportunities for our employees, and a stronger future for journalism.”

The agreement calls for GateHouse/New Media shareholders to control 50.5 percent of the merged company, while Gannett shareholders will own 49.5 percent.

Last month, the New York Post reported that three private equity firms that have ownership stakes in both Gannett and New Media were pushing for the deal to be completed. “Private equity firm Blackrock holds a 14.64-percent stake in each company,” according to the Post. “Vanguard Group holds 11.64 percent of Gannett and 10.09 of New Media; while Dimensional Fund Advisors holds 8.23 percent of Gannett and 7.33 percent of New Media.”

The Post said at the time that one of the biggest remaining obstacles to the deal “involves GateHouse/New Media’s assumption of Gannett’s costly pension liabilities.”

Trump planning to sue Des Moines Register over Ann Selzer's Iowa election poll showing Harris lead

Trump ultimately won the state with 56% of the vote compared to 42.7% for Harris.

President-elect Donald Trump announced that he plans to sue the Des Moines Register over Ann Selzer's Iowa election poll in the homestretch of the 2024 election.

Trump described the poll as "election interference."

Selzer's final poll showed Vice President Kamala Harris up by 3 points. Trump ultimately won the state with 56% of the vote compared to 42.7% for Harris.

In a recent interview, Selzer rejected the criticism of her poll.

"Let's deal with the allegations because I am mystified about what the motivation anybody thinks I had and would act on in such a public poll. I don't understand it. And the allegations I take very seriously," Selzer said. "They're saying that this was election interference, which is a crime. So, the idea that I intentionally set up to deliver this response, when I've never done that before, I've had plenty of opportunities to do it, it's not my ethic."

Trump: The dinner was fantastic, we had bobby and the head of pfizer .. we have a thing called the middle man,… we are going to knock out the middle man.. i dont know who these middle men are, but we are going to knock them out… we spent more time talking about that than anything else

President Trump: If you look at autism; thirty years ago, I've heard numbers of, like one in two hundred thousand, one in one hundred thousand, and now I'm hearing numbers of one in one hundred. So something's wrong. There's something wrong, and we're going to find out about it.

Trump: Europe doesnt use pesticides and yet they have a better mortality rate … something bads happening, again, take a look at autism today vs 25 years ago, its not even believable

President Trump: The government knows what is happening [drones]. Our military knows where they took off from. If it's a garage, they can go right into that garage. They know where it came from, and where it went, and for some reason they don't want to comment. And I think they would be better off saying what it is. Our military knows, and our president knows, and for some reason they want to keep people in suspense. I can't imagine it's the enemy, because if it was the enemy, they would blast it out…something strange is going on, and for some reason they don't want to tell the people.

djt: the number of people are dead in ukraine, many civilians, it will be shocking, it is a carnage like we have not seen since the 2nd world war.

Trump: Theres cities (Ukraine) where theres not a building in sight… its a demolition site… just like when they knock down a building in manhattan… you gotta take it step by step

DJT: China and the United States, together , can solve all of the problems of the world …

President Trump: China and the United States can, together, solve all of the problems of the world.

DJT: That was a terrible thing, (Luigi) how people can like this guy, esp the way it was done, right in the back… maybe its fake news.. it seems theres a certain appetite for him

Dr. Jay Bhattacharya on the $1 Billion Propaganda Campaign HHS Ran for the Pharma Industry

"HHS commissioned a public relations firm…in September 2020 and then spent almost a $1 Billion over the course of the Biden Administration essentially to propagandize the American public. The main goal was to tell people that if you don't get the COVID vaccine, you are unclean…The U.S. government became…the most gung-ho cheerleader for the Pharma industry in the history of the Pharma industry. They've never had better salespeople."

Hollywood actor Daniel Baldwin claimed major injury elites are engaging in “bidding wars” for Sean “Diddy” Combs’ blackmail sex tapes filmed from his infamous freak-off parties.

During a recent PBD podcast appearance, Baldwin said that Diddy has “videos of the parties… I’ve heard from friends that are attorneys… there’s a bidding war going on right now.”

Baldwin continued:

“They’re driving that price up because if you want your client and your famous actor to not be involved, a famous singer to not come out, here’s the price, and that they’re just selling to the individuals that are in those.”

“This is what I heard. They’re selling those videos,” he added, suggesting Hollywood elites are buying the tapes so they don’t go to jail.

Baldwin said Diddy has now become the Jeffrey Epstein of Hollywood.

As we reported earlier this year, Diddy’s former bodyguard revealed the rapper had compromising tapes of elite politicians engaging in disturbing sexual activities with children in what has been referred to as the “secret room.”

“You know who else they were doing an investigation on during that whole time period? It was the mayor and the politicians in New York City,” Gene Deal stated.

“They turned around, gave him the key to the city. All the mayor’s people that he brought in here in New York City are resigning. They all resigned.”

“People are not going to tie this together, but if you look at it, you have to say, because of Mayor Adams and his relationship with Diddy, it brought on the Southern District of New York to start investigating Diddy on civil lawsuits that were filed against him because the feds are going after all these politicians in New York City,” the former bodyguard also claimed.

The Drunk Driver Paul Pelosi, the husband of Insider Trading Inc. Nancy Pelosi, has received $1,709,100 of PPP loans from the federal government, which won’t have to be repaid ever.

Net worth:

1987 $165,000

2024 $265 million

In office 34 fucken years.

Speaker’s salary $193,400

A: In July 2021, the Drunk Driver purchased 20,000 shares of Nvidia, a multinational semiconductor company, worth between $1 million and $5 million. This trade came ahead of a vote in the Senate that set aside $52 billion to boost domestic semiconductor manufacturing and give tax credits for production.

B: In May of 2021, the Sleazebag’s husband placed a bet of up to $6 million on Apple, Amazon and Google-parent company Alphabet ahead of a powerful House committee moving forward with bills aimed at reining in the powers of Big Tech.

C: In March 2021, the Drunk Driver purchased $1.95 million worth of Microsoft call options less than two weeks before the tech giant secured a $22 billion contract to supply U.S. Army combat troops with augmented reality headsets.

D: In January 2021, the Drunk Driver purchased up to $1 million of Tesla calls before the Biden Criminal Administration delivered its plans to provide incentives to promote the shift away from fossil fueled automobiles and toward fossil fueled electric vehicles.

E: The Treacherous Witch’s biggest financial gains came from when her Drunk Driver sold 30,000 shares of Google from Dec 20 to Dec 2023 —just before the Department of Justice launched an antitrust probe of the tech giant.

In 2020, Sleazebag Nancy Pelosi and her Drunk Driver Paul Pelosi outperformed the S&P 500 by a whopping 14.3 percent.

Now, why did Martha Stewart go to prison for insider trading and the Treacherous Witch has not?!

The Alien Card: Wernher von Braun's Warning, UFO Phenomena, Mars Exploration, and the Human Response

Sunday, December 15, 2024 at 10:13:30a PST

Decades ago, Wernher von Braun, a central figure in modern rocketry, allegedly provided a disturbing prophecy.

According to his colleague, Dr. Carol Rosin, he believed governments would create and exploit a succession of fear-based narratives from the threat of communism and terrorism to the dangers posed by rogue states and incoming asteroids — All eventually giving way to what he called the "alien card."

In that final scenario, an extraterrestrial menace would be fabricated to justify intensified global militarization and concentrated authority.

In recent weeks, reports have emerged of strange aerial phenomena — Different luminous orbs in New Jersey, for example, and strange sounds-that renew the freshness of these ideas.

Many such sightings are potentially anecdotes, but social media and online forums are full of discussions and eyewitness accounts of objects apparently behaving in ways no known aircraft can, sometimes with strange humming or buzzing tones.

While not every report gets substantiated, the broader shift in the public's attitude toward UFOs is undeniable.

The U.S. government declassifying certain UFO footage and creating the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) lent further legitimacy to the conversation, moving it from fringe speculation into more mainstream discourse.

Meanwhile, interest in Mars keeps on growing. NASA's findings of vestiges of water and geological formations that look quite promising continue to feed the dream of finding any sign of life beyond Earth.

SpaceX seriously discusses logistics for the habitats of humans on the Red Planet. The very confirmation of even microbial life would send shockwaves to how we view ourselves.

It could prove life is not unique to Earth and force us to reassess long-held assumptions about biology and the cosmos.

It's this interplay — The contrarian cautionary tale by von Braun, the continued reporting of strange lights in our skies, and the quite real possibility of life on Mars — Pushing us to assess what tales we choose to believe.

If framed as monstrous dangers, humanity might respond with paranoia, weaponry, and isolationism.

But if approached as mysteries with curiosity, humility, and a commitment to knowledge, we might find ourselves at the threshold of a new era of scientific and cultural renaissance.

Religious and spiritual traditions would also come to a crossroads. Faiths that center humans within creation may find themselves needing to revise their understanding in light of extraterrestrial life.

However, many religious traditions, from Christianity and Islam to Hinduism, have conceptual frameworks that are elastic enough to accommodate a universe bursting with life.

Even Pope Francis has hinted that aliens from other planets would also be part of God and the divine creation, thus encouraging a view to invite inclusion rather than fear.

Popular culture already prepares us for these possibilities: science fiction novels, films, and television have long explored such scenarios.

The question is how we as an international community will react if the boundary between speculation and reality is blurred.

Will we allow ourselves to be guided by fear-laden stories, or will we opt for openness and cooperation?

In the end, it's not about aliens or asteroids, von Braun warned — Which is to say, this has always been about us, and our capacity for judgment.

Confronted today by enigmas in the atmosphere and between worlds, our response might mark an era: defined on the one hand by paranoia and authoritarian overreach; defined, on the other hand, by inquiry, common understanding, and renewed awe.

Thank you for visiting our website! We hope you find the information useful and helpful as you consider Christian education at Abundant Life Christian School (ALCS) for your child.

ALCS was founded in 1978 as a community Christian school with the vision of providing academic excellence in a Christ-centered environment for families in the greater Dane County area. ALCS is one of three campuses which makes up Impact Christian Schools. Abundant Life Christian School, our east campus, serves K-12 while our west campus, High Point Christian, serves Preschool through 8th grade. Lighthouse Christian School is also a part of Impact Christian Schools, serving Preschool through 8th grade. ALCS has grown from its humble beginnings with 30 students to approximately 335 students enrolled today in Kindergarten through 12th grade.

Our campus is conveniently located at 4901 E. Buckeye Road in Madison, WI, just ½ mile east of Highway 51. We share a 28-acre campus with Campus for Kids Learning Center (infant-4K) and City Church. The school began in 1978 with the mission to “partner with parents and churches to train young men and women in the development of Christian character and academic excellence.” Since the school's inception, ALCS has graduated 36 classes representing many students who have gone on to further their education at colleges, mission fields, and the military. Our graduates are building careers and families as they fulfill their God-given purposes in life.

For a family considering a partnership with ALCS, it is important to understand our reliance on the Bible as the inspired Word of God and the foundation for all that we teach. ALCS has a strong academic program which instills the disciplines and skills necessary for each of our students to become successful in life. We are committed to developing the whole person: intellectually, spiritually, socially, and physically.

ALCS offers a balanced approach in its educational philosophy. Advanced academic opportunities include high school advanced placement (AP) classes. The exposure to fine arts encourages students to develop their talents, gifts, and abilities in ways that have the potential to influence their community for the rest of their lives. In athletics, ALCS provides opportunities for students competing against area schools as a member of the WIAA in high school and of MAISL in middle school. These three areas of emphasis are rounded out and stabilized by a Christ-focused worldview. It is foundational to our mission that a Christ-focused worldview be integrated into each subject and activity.

Again, thank you for visiting our website! Fill out our online inquiry for more information. We'd love to have your family join ours and be part of the growing Christian education community of which we are blessed to belong.

Sincerely,

Doug Butler, Principal

Abundant Life Christian

Romania's Constitutional Coup Is Meant To Buy More Time For NATO In Ukraine

Western democracy is just a process for legitimizing elite interests, and these same elites sometimes repeat the process until they get their desired result…

It was assessed late last month that “The Outcome Of Romania’s Presidential Election Could Spoil The US’ Potential Escalation Plans” if then-frontrunner Calin Georgescu, a populist conservative-nationalist that’s critical of NATO’s proxy war on Russian in Ukraine, had won the second round on 8 December. His first-round victory was annulled by the Constitutional Coup in a move that he condemned as a coup, however, on the pretext that his pre-election support on TikTok might have been due to foreign backing.

Gun control activist David Hogg is running for the position of vice chair of the Democrat National Committee.

ABC News quoted Hogg:

I think this role is a great way of, for one, bringing newer voices into the Democratic Party…I just want to be one of several of those voices to help represent young people and also, more than anything, make sure that we’re standing up to the consulting class that increasingly the Democratic Party is representing instead of the working class.

In a stunning move that shakes the government, Canadian Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland has resigned from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s cabinet after he tried to move her to a different role.

Freeland has been the most powerful person in Trudeau’s cabinet for years, and was the point person in strategizing how to counter US President-elect Donald Trump’s threat to impose 25% tariffs.

Daniel Baldwin Claims There Are "Bidding Wars" In Hollywood Over Diddy Blackmail Sex Tapes

Actor Daniel Baldwin has made extraordinary claims that Hollywood stars are involved in “bidding wars” to prevent copies of blackmail sex tapes filmed at the infamous Sean “Diddy” Combs’ freak off parties from falling into the wrong hands.

Appearing on the PBD podcast, Baldwin stated “He has videos of the parties… I’ve heard from friends that are attorneys… there’s a bidding war going on right now.”

The brother of Alec Baldwin continued, “They’re driving that price up because if you want your client and your famous actor to not be involved, a famous singer to not come out, here’s the price, and that they’re just selling to the individuals that are in those.”

“This is what I heard. They’re selling those videos,” he reiterated, claiming that some celebrities are buying them to try to save their own skins.

Assad Breaks Silence, Claims He Intended to Continue Fighting from Russian Base.

Former Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad has issued his first statement since his ouster by Turkey-backed jihadist rebels, denying he fled the country as “part of a plan” and claiming he initially intended to carry on fighting from the Alawite heartland of Latakia. “As terrorism spread across Syria and ultimately reached Damascus on the evening of Saturday 7 December 2024, questions arose about the president’s fate and whereabouts,” reads the statement—posted to a Telegram account associated with the Syrian presidency but not yet independently verified. It complains of “a flood of misinformation and narratives far removed from the truth, aimed at recasting international terrorism as a liberation revolution for Syria.

”Assad, if he is the author of the statement, said he traveled to the Russian airbase of Hmeimim in Latakia, only hours after rebel forces had entered Damascus, intending to “oversee combat operations.” Latakia is home to most of Syria’s Alawite minority, which the Assad clan hails from, and he may have hoped members of the Shia offshoot sect would offer stiffer resistance to the mostly Sunni jihadists of the Hayʼat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) group than government forces elsewhere.

However, Assad claims he found that Syrian soldiers had already left their posts and that the Russians made the decision to exfiltrate after Hmeimim began to be targeted by drones.“With no viable means of leaving the base, Moscow requested that the base’s command arrange an immediate evacuation to Russia on the evening of Sunday 8 December,” Assad said. “This took place a day after the fall of Damascus, following the collapse of the final military positions and the resulting paralysis of all remaining state institutions.”

NO PLAN TO LEAVE.

“At no point during these events did I consider stepping down or seeking refuge, nor was such a proposal made by any individual or part,” Assad insisted, claiming that, in his mind, the “only course of action was to continue fighting against the terrorist onslaught,” and he “did not leave the country as part of a plan as it was reported earlier.”

The whereabouts of Assad, his wife Asma, and their three children were initially unclear. Russian officials later confirmed their departure following negotiations with rebels.

There are concerns hundreds of thousands of Syrians, including Alawites like Assad, may attempt to leave the country like their former leader, fearing reprisals by the al-Qaeda-linked new regime.

UK Approves $4.6 Billion Takeover of Royal Mail by Czech Billionaire

Britain’s government gave the go-ahead Monday for the sale of Royal Mail’s parent company to a Czech billionaire, paving the way for the postal service to pass into foreign ownership for the first time in its 500-year history.

Authorities confirmed Monday that the 3.6 billion-pound ($4.6 billion) takeover of Royal Mail’s owner, International Distribution Services, by billionaire Daniel Kretinsky’s EP Group, can go ahead.

Kretinsky and IDS agreed to the deal in May but had been waiting for official approval under national security laws because of the importance of the postal service in the U.K.

The service will remain headquartered in the U.K. and as part of the deal, Britain’s government will retain a so-called “golden share” in the service, meaning it will need to approve any key changes to Royal Mail’s ownership, headquarters location and tax residency.

Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds said the move was a “good deal for the U.K.”

“We have negotiated something which secures the long-term future of Royal Mail and gives it the fresh start that we need,” he said.

USPS blows $3 billion on 32 mail trucks—$32M each. Outrageous waste.

The USPS has reached new heights of fiscal irresponsibility, spending an unthinkable $3 billion on just 32 mail trucks. That’s $32 million per truck. Let that sink in. Thirty-two million dollars—per truck. This isn’t just wasteful; it’s an insult to every American taxpayer. Where is the oversight? Who approved this absurd price tag without a second thought?

These aren’t gold-plated, space-age vehicles; they’re mail trucks replacing the aging Grumman Long Life Vehicles (LLVs) that have served since 1987. Sure, the fleet needs an upgrade, but this kind of reckless spending is indefensible. The USPS has long been plagued by inefficiency, but this decision drags incompetence to a whole new level.

The so-called Next Generation Delivery Vehicles (NGDVs), part of a $6 billion contract with Oshkosh Defense, were touted as a step toward modernization. Featuring better fuel efficiency, safety features, and electric options, they might sound impressive—until you look at the cost. The USPS claims these trucks will save money in the long run, but the up-front price and the additional costs of charging stations and infrastructure upgrades make that hard to believe.

Critics are rightly questioning the lack of transparency in the procurement process. Were alternatives explored? Could the current fleet have been retrofitted at a fraction of the cost? These are basic questions that any competent organization would ask before committing billions. Yet here we are, saddled with an outrageous bill and no clear answers.

The USPS’s financial struggles are no secret. Years of deficits and operating losses should have pushed the agency toward tighter budgeting and smarter decisions. Instead, it’s doubling down on wasteful spending, further jeopardizing its ability to deliver essential services.

This is taxpayer money being thrown into the wind. Every American, regardless of political affiliation, should be outraged. The USPS needs to be held accountable for this absurd misuse of funds. Anything less is a slap in the face to every citizen who pays for this bloated, out-of-control bureaucracy.

The Quiet Game: How Drones, Power, and Politics Collide

This might just be the most I’ve ever spilled on the things no one ever talks about—consider it classified… but I was ordered to show teeth.

In recent years, an unsettling pattern has emerged in the skies over the United States and, most recently, in states like New Jersey. Numerous reports have surfaced detailing mysterious drone activity in restricted airspace—incidents that cannot be readily attributed to hobbyists, commercial entities, or known military operations. These unidentified drones, often exhibiting unusual flight patterns and technological capabilities beyond conventional understanding, have provoked concern among local communities, state agencies, and federal authorities. The increasing frequency of these encounters is reshaping the conversation about national security, surveillance, and the handling of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAPs).

In late 2019, a wave of reports about mysterious drone sightings over New Jersey captivated the public and stumped authorities. These incidents, often described vividly as involving large formations of drones flying at night, generated widespread concern. The drones were frequently spotted hovering around critical infrastructure such as power plants, raising questions about their purpose and origin. No one reported on that as it wasn’t fed to the media, either legacy or alt. I’m just pointing this out to remind my readers that all media with sponsors and networks are influenced and report ONLY on things they are told to do. We made a note of it to discuss it at the right time. Here we are.

There is a time for everything and every moment in it’s place.~Tore Maras

The Surge of Drone Sightings in 2019-2020

Local media, ranging from The New York Times to NJ.com, extensively documented the phenomenon between late 2019 and early 2020. Eyewitness accounts detailed drones flying in coordinated patterns, sometimes in groups, sparking fear of potential surveillance or other nefarious activity. These sightings were predominantly concentrated in rural areas of New Jersey but occasionally encroached upon sensitive facilities, adding urgency to the unfolding mystery. Most of these sightings were reported as Aliens and dismissed as conspiracy theories.

Investigations and Federal Scrutiny

The sightings prompted investigations by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and even the U.S. Air Force, highlighting the gravity of the situation. Despite the deployment of significant resources, no definitive conclusions were drawn. Initial hypotheses ranged from coordinated surveillance operations to amateur drone enthusiasts staging elaborate displays. Yet, no group or individual was conclusively linked to the activity, leaving the case ambiguous. Allow me to share some actual knowledge on these things.

The alternative alien media circles, including local legacy media outlets in NJ, played a central role in keeping the mystery alive. Articles from prominent sources like NJ.com captured public unease, often underscoring investigations’ lack of concrete answers. Some reports speculated on espionage or experimentation with military technology, while others hinted at lapses in regulatory oversight, pointing to a broader failure in drone accountability.

These incidents also raised provocative questions about drone regulation and national security. Why were such organized formations flying near critical infrastructure? Could this represent a gap in domestic airspace security or even a trial run for advanced surveillance systems? Despite heightened scrutiny, officials never issued a conclusive report, fueling suspicions of either government secrecy or investigative shortcomings.

While the public clamored for answers, the absence of clear attribution left fertile ground for theories ranging from espionage to aliens and covert military tests. The failure to identify the operators or their motives underscored a broader vulnerability that demands enhanced vigilance and regulation in an era of increasingly accessible drone technologies.

GOP Sen. Markwayne Mullin Decries Social Media For Giving Americans Insight Into Congress’s Backdoor Dealmaking

BY: SHAWN FLEETWOOD DECEMBER 13, 20241/2

Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., complained on Thursday thatsocial media has ruined Congress’s ability to make secretive deals on legislation before it is released to the public.

Mullin made the comments during a panel at a conference hosted by the No Labels party, which purportedly aims to “give power to the middle, in Washington and across America.” The event featuredguests from across the political spectrum, including Republican Sens. Thom Tillis of North Carolina and Todd Young of Indiana and Democrat Sen. Tim Kaine of Virginia.

While speaking before a room of attendees with several congressmen, Mullin discussed the complexities of the lawmaking process between the House and Senate and noted, “If you go back and … actually read The Federalist Papers, you’ll understand [the Founders] wanted Congress to be dysfunctional.”

“When people say, ‘Why don’t you all get along?’ It was never designed for us to get along,” Mullin said. “It was designed for it to be a thoughtful process and heavily debated so it couldn’t move as fast it moves sometimes.”

The Oklahoma senator went on to describe the consequences of Congress outsourcing much of its rulemaking to the executive branch and how doing so has the potential to create “destabilization throughout the economy, throughout the country, [and] throughout foreign policy.” He further opined that the federal government needs to “get back to actually allowing Congress to make the legislation” rather than allowing policy to be made predominantly through executive fiat.

Mullin’s remarks took a turn for the worse, however.The Sooner State Republican decried how social media has hampered lawmakers’ ability to negotiate on legislation ==behind closed doors and claimed it’s important for legislators to meet and discuss such issues “in private.”

“The process can be worked out. It’s new, it’s different because of social media, because everything you do constantly leaks and people make the assumption before they get the facts, which is why it’s important when you’re working in groups like this, that … it stays private,” Mullin said. “Which is one of the reasons why we meet where we meet. We don’t meet on [Capitol] Hill; we meet off the Hill. We have open conversations because we don’t want the media to get there, and [so] we work with people that we can trust.”

Mullin claimed it’s important during negotiations that lawmakers not “allow the process to get out yet on what [they’re] working with because social media and … your left media and your right media both jump to conclusions, and it kills the process before … you can even get started.” He went on to note the executive’s role in the legislative process and the difficulty of placating all parties involved in deliberations.

The comments came days after Mullin defended his colleague Sen. Joni Ernst, R-Iowa, who has come under fire from conservatives for working behind the scenes to sabotage Pete Hegseth, President-elect Donald Trump’s nominee for defense secretary. Multiple sources within Trump world told The Federalist last week that Ernst called Trump to urge him to dump Hegseth and enlisted Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., to lobby the president-elect to replace Hegseth with Ernst…

When asked this week whether he thinks Ernst should be primaried if she votes against Hegseth’s confirmation, Mullin said, “No,” but expressed optimism that she would ultimately support Hegseth.

“I think Joni is going through the process because it’s very important to her. [When she] makes a decision, she’ll make the right decision, and I’m positive about that,” Mullin said.

Ernst and Graham seemingly changed their tune on Hegseth following conservatives’ pressure campaign. Mullin has pledged support for Hegseth’s confirmation and defended the Army veteran against the anonymous allegations levied against him.

Mullin’s defense of Ernst and Congress’s backdoor dealmakingfalls in line with his history of supporting bills favored by the D.C. establishment.

Within the past congressional session alone, the Oklahoma Republican has voted for legislation shippingmore U.S. taxpayer money to foreign powers like Ukraine,bloated federal spending bills, and a measureto suspend the debt ceiling until 2025. He also opposedan amendment introduced last year by Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., that sought to create a special inspector general to oversee U.S. funds given to Ukraine.

Heritage Action, which grades members of Congress based on how conservative their voting record is, gave Mullin a 2023-2024 session score of 42/100, or 42 percent. Mullin’s Senate seat is up for election in 2026.

Reading what Mullin recommends goes against every premise of the Consitution, that they work for the people! Bannon and others have warned about this for many years. They hate us and will never work for what we want.

Shell records oil spill at Bonny terminal, closes pipeline

By Udeme Akpan

An oil spill has occurred at the Shell Petroleum Development Company (SPDC) loading terminal, (SMI), in Bonny, Rivers State, culminating in the temporary closure of the pipeline.

The incident occurred weekend, due to a ruptured pipeline.

According to the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA), “SPDC has promptly shut down the affected pipeline and deployed containment booms to protect the neighboring communities”.

Head, Public Relations, NIMASA, Osagie Edward, said the spill has already reached the shoreline.

“Although the spill has reached the shoreline, the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) is actively monitoring the situation from an emergency operations center.

“The agency is collaborating with SPDC and other relevant stakeholders to assess the extent of the spill and determine necessary follow-up actions.

“Members of the public are advised to remain calm as NIMASA is committed to mitigating the impact of the spill and restoring affected areas,”

Ok, Anons…time to dig…Nuclear materials…LOST IN TRANSIT

Radmon.org …

Radiation monitoring website..

Question the drone are looking for a shipment the had radiation materials…(see pic)

I think this is the most likely explanation so far. According to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission a shipment of nuclear matter was lost in transit in New Jersey on December 2nd…

"The following information was provided by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) via email:

"The licensee reported to NJDEP on December 3, 2024, that a Ge-68 pin source that they sent for disposal has been lost in transit on December 2, 2024. The source is a Eckert & Ziegler model HEGL-0132, with current approximate activity of 0.267 mCi. The shipping container arrived at its destination damaged and empty. The licensee has filed a claim with the shipper. If the source is not located within the 30 days, the licensee will follow-up with a full written report to include root cause(s) and corrective actions."

Why would a building in Florence, New Jersey have a 9 -20(it fluctuates)for radiation…see map.

MUST WATCH: Liberal ESPN Commentator Stephen A. Smith Realizes January 6 Was an Inside Job After DOJ Reports 26 FBI Agents in the Crowd, Starts SCREAMING at Democrats for Smearing Conservatives: “I’m Sick of All of it” (VIDEO)

Liberal ESPN host Stephen A. Smith highlighted the “bombshell” DOJ report during a podcast episode Sunday and ripped the Democrats for lying about January 6 and smearing anybody who suggested the FBI was involved as a “conspiracy theorist.”

“You know what I’m getting really pissed off about? I’m getting really ticked off that every time they open their mouth about something pertaining to y’all, they seem right!” Smith said of conservative commentators who he realized have been right all along.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Inspector General David Horowitz released his much-anticipated January 6 report on Thursday. In the IG report released last week, the DOJ admits to 26 “confidential human sources” (page 77) working that day inside the Trump protest at the US Capitol. The IG Report ignored how many “undercover employees” were also at the US Capitol that day.

According to the report – the DOJ also admitted that 4 entered the US Capitol and 13 entered the restricted area. However, this is very likely inaccurate. As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, the FBI lost track of how many operatives and paid informants they had in the Trump crowd on January 6, 2021.

The Gateway Pundit has reported on numerous confirmed intelligence operatives and “cutouts” who had infiltrated the Trump crowd on January 6, 2021.

When the DOJ admits to 26 undercover operatives working inside the crowd that day, they do not include the many dozens or hundreds of “cutouts” who were operating inside the enormous crowd that day.

They further admit that only three confidential human sources (CHSs) were tasked with reporting on domestic terrorist (DT) subjects and people traveling to DC, but at least 26 were identified.

"Of the 26 CHSs who traveled to DC in connection with the events of January 6, documents and other information we reviewed showed that two CHSs had been tasked by their respective handling field offices to travel to DC in order to report on DT subjects who the field offices understood were planning to travel (travelers) to DC for the events of January 6 and that a third CHS had been tasked by its field office to report on travelers to DC for the events of January 6 after the CHS notified their handling agent about the CHS’s planned travel to DC."

It’s safe to say that January 6 was the largest organized government set up to target a specific political party in US history.

Smith also emphasized an X post from Vice President-elect JD Vance, where he noted that "this was labeled a dangerous conspiracy theory months ago."

For those keeping score at home, this was labeled a dangerous conspiracy theory months ago. https://t.co/gNJPUuRp5U

— JD Vance (@JDVance) December 12, 2024

"Didn't hear anything about that before the election. Didn't hear anything about that when the quote, unquote insurrection was broached by Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee, the belief that Donald Trump was a danger to democracy, and using this as a profound, illuminating bullet point to make that case, and now here we are yet again, finding even more evidence to Donald Trump's claims when he articulated that process is rigged," he said.

Smith continued going off, screaming at one point, as he tore into the Democrats for pointing the finger at the Right when they're actually "guilty of the same sh*t."

"They’ve actually made Donald Trump look like he was right instead of them," he concluded.

Smith has broken away from the Democrats several times and given more logical takes on politics recently, likely, however, to appeal to his audience of sports fans. Smith said that he was voting for Kamala before the 2024 election. But his anger with the Democrats was truly on display here.

Watch below:

Smith: The news comes amidst a bombshell report from the Justice Department that revealed the FBI had at least 26 confidential informants on the ground when the Capitol was stormed on January 6, 2021. The report says most of the informants engaged in illegal activity during the chaos. The Justice Department says only three of its 26 informants present had been instructed to observe potential domestic terrorist suspects on the day of the riot. The rest of the 23 appeared to have gone to the Capitol on their own accord. Upon hearing news of the report, Vice President-Elect JD Vance posted the following on X: “For those keeping score at home, this was labeled a dangerous conspiracy theory months ago."

This is Former Cigna Vice President of Corporate Communications Wendell Potter

Cigna is one of America’s largest health insurers and profits over $195 billion a year

Former Cigna VP Wendell Potter is now a whistleblower saying they delay life saving treatment ON PURPOSE

Reporter “You make the point that delay is a tactic, and delay can be deadly. In other words, just keep kicking the can down the road — but this is a common practice as well and a real one?”

“It is. It is. A common practice is one of the barriers these companies have erected to enable them to enrich their shareholders even more”

“It's all about how can you reward shareholders and what you have to do that is detrimental to the people who are enrolled in your health plans.”

He says medical debt “is another barrier they erected” ON PURPOSE

“I left because I knew that these companies and their health plans are pushing us all into. They have high deductibles. They make us pay $100d and sometimes $1,000s of dollars out of our own pockets before they will cover a dime of worth of our care.”

American Healthcare has nothing to do with care, it’s all about massive profits

My big issue is that I'm really, really sick and tired of every time I turn around, finding something else that the Democrats have lied about, or downplayed, or misrepresented along the way. I mean, I see Republicans like Megyn Kelly or Officer Tatum or Candace Owens, or, you know, the Sean Hannity's of the world.

You know what I'm getting tired of? I'm getting, you know what I'm getting— to the Democratic Party, you know what I'm getting really pissed off about? I'm getting really ticked off that every time they open their mouth about something pertaining to y'all, they seem right!

To make the case that the right had a monopoly on insidious, evil tendencies, corrupt tendencies, duplicitous, hypocritical, untruthful tendencies, and every time they made those accusations, we turn around and find out that at least some of them are guilty of the same sh*t.

I don't know about y'all, but I'm sick of all of it. I'm sick of all of it. They’ve actually made Donald Trump look like he was right instead of them.

West pushing Russia beyond ‘red line’ – Putin

The continued support for Ukraine is aimed at inflicting a “strategic defeat” on Moscow, the president has said

The West’s support for Ukraine is pushing Russia to the point where it cannot help but retaliate, President Vladimir Putin has said, while warning the US against deploying medium-range missiles.

Speaking at a meeting of top Russian Defense Ministry officials on Monday, Putin accused the US of seeking “to weaken our country and inflict a strategic defeat” on Moscow by continuing “to pump a de facto illegitimate ruling regime in Kiev with weapons and money, sending mercenaries and military advisers, thereby encouraging further escalation of the conflict.”

Washington is instilling fear in Americans by resorting to “simple tactics,” Putin stated. “They push us to the red line… we begin to respond, and then they frighten their population,” he added, suggesting that the US used the same approach during its rivalry with the Soviet Union.

The Russian president also slammed the West for what he described as attempts to impose its own rules on the rest of the world while waging “hybrid wars” against anyone who resists, including Russia.

In this vein, NATO is boosting its defense spending and forming “strike groups” near Russia’s borders, he added. “The number of American service members in Europe has already exceeded 100,000 troops,” he noted.

NATO is ramping up its presence not only in Europe but also in regions that have never seen this type of military footprint, particularly the Asia-Pacific, Putin said, voicing particular concerns over US plans to deploy missile systems with a range of up to 5,500km.

Putin was referring to a type of weapon previously banned by the Cold War-era Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty. The US unilaterally pulled out of the treaty in 2018, citing Russian non-compliance – an allegation Moscow has denied.

The Russian president stressed that despite Washington’s withdrawal from the INF Treaty, Moscow made a unilateral and voluntary commitment not to deploy medium- and short-range missiles unless the US deploys such weapons anywhere in the world.

However, “if the United States begins to deploy such systems, then all our voluntary restrictions will be lifted,” Putin warned.

@Slatzism

I have made contact with the alleged boyfriend of the Wisconsin shooter.

He has very graciously provided me the full manifesto, which I verified by having him screen record himself opening it from a direct link the shooter sent to him via WhatsApp.

I told him I would do my best to dispel some of the misinformation and present things as truthfully as I was given them, and I will hold myself to that.

- Her boyfriend knew her as Samantha Rupnow.

- She also went by a different name (one which was also feminine), but adopted the name "Samantha" and this was the name her boyfriend says she had on her school identification card.

- She was a student at Abundant Life.

- She was born on November 7, 2009.

- She was born female and was not transgender. Her boyfriend was born male and is not transgender.

- Her manifesto was titled "War Against Humanity."

- Her manifesto is 6 pages long.

- In her manifesto, she spoke about having extremely difficult relationship with her parents, who she referred to as "scum."

- She also claims her family didn't love her or want her, and expresses feeling like the "wrong child" of her family.

- She says she had planned to commit suicide a long time ago, but felt committing a shooting was “better for evolution rather than just one stupid boring suicide.”

- She expresses deep admiration for Pekka Eric Auvinen, Arda Küçükyetim, and Vladislav Roslyakov.

- She offered particular praise for Küçükyetim, who was a Turkish neo-nazi who committed a mass attack in Eskişehir earlier this year, and stated he was an inspiration to her. She calls him “an ultimate saint.”

- She expressed that she got the weapons to commit the attack through "lies, manipulation, and my father's stupidity.”

More to come shortly. I will make some screenshots of the manifesto.

In the interim….

Her boyfriend says the photo that is making the rounds is not how he remembers her, and believes it was somewhat edited “to make her look worse.”

He provided me a photo of her in the same t-shirt and room.

Key Figures From "Thank You Dr. Fauci" Lead The Quest For COVID-19 Accountability

The documentary Thank You Dr. Fauci has emerged as a prescient roadmap for understanding the COVID-19 pandemic, its origins, and the political and scientific decisions that shaped the world’s response. If you haven't already, please watch and share this groundbreaking work.

https://www.bitchute.com/video/uhZbuFU5fY3x

Directed by progressive filmmaker Jenner Furst, Thank You Dr. Fauci brings together an extraordinary cast of whistleblowers, investigators, and scientists who were early voices in questioning the narratives surrounding the pandemic. As the Trump administration prepares to take office, with figures like Senator Rand Paul leading investigations into COVID-19 origins, the documentary stands as a bold call for transparency, justice, and reform.

The film carefully curates a mix of insiders, investigators, and progressive activists who have shaped the COVID-19 discourse. Their inclusion not only provides a thorough examination of the pandemic but also underscores the film’s broader message about systemic failures and the need for reform.

Joe Biden’s Public Disappearances Raise Questions About Status of His Health

Something is going on with Joe Biden.

No one quite knows who is in charge of the country right now.

And this bombshell story will raise serious doubts about Joe Biden’s health situation.

It has been clear for years now that Joe Biden is in a slow but steady decline and has lost quite a bit of function from where he was even just a few short years ago.

Where that decline stands right now is hard to tell because he is making very few public appearances so there’s little evidence to gauge it on.

But the fact that his number of appearances has declined so sharply in the wake of the election should raise alarm bells.

There are a number of theories for why he has gone dark, but it is impossible not to wonder whether it ties into the health issues that he is clearly already having.

After all, it is unprecedented for a president to disappear like this, but it is also unprecedented for a president to be in this level of decline.

And Joe Biden’s team is going to have a lot of questions to answer for the public.

According to Politico, “Joe Biden is president of the United States for 42 more days. But within the Democratic Party, on Capitol Hill — and even within his own administration — it feels like he left the Oval Office weeks ago.

“Biden has effectively disappeared from the radar in the wake of Democrats’ bruising electoral loss. Since Nov. 5, he’s largely stuck to prepared remarks, avoided unscripted public appearances or press questions and opted to sit out the raging debate over Donald Trump’s victory, policy conversations in Congress and the Democratic Party’s future.”

While the article does not specifically say that his disappearance is tied to his health, it does not seem to have a specific answer for why it’s happening either.

People in the article throw out various theories, like the fact that he’s mad at the Democratic Party for casting him aside, but his health remains the giant elephant in the room.

The article continues, “Still, Biden officials and allies acknowledged that the president has been conspicuously absent from the broader public discourse, especially as the rest of the Democratic Party debates how best to resist Trump and rebuild the party.”

“Biden is expected to make at least a couple higher-profile speeches in the coming weeks, following an initial post-election month devoted to long-planned trips abroad.”

It will be interesting to see how those speeches go, as it will hopefully give the American people a window into the state of the man who is still the president for the next month.

Everyone should be hoping that Biden is in good health and that his absence from the public stage isn’t related to his decline, but it is impossible not to wonder given the information that’s available. Joe Biden has taken a big step back from the public limelight and many people are wondering why exactly that has happened.

Top aide to NYC mayor resigns months after prosecutors search her home and seize her phones

A top aide to New York Mayor Eric Adams abruptly resigned less than three months after investigators from the Manhattan district attorney’s office took her phones and searched her house as part of one of several probes that have enveloped City Hall.

Ingrid Lewis-Martin’s resignation Sunday was a planned retirement, Adams’ office said in a statement. Her attorney, Arthur Aidala, is scheduled to hold a news conference Monday.

“Ingrid has not been just a friend, a confidant, and trusted advisor, but also a sister,” Adams said. “We’ve always talked about when this day would come, and while we’ve long planned for it, it is still hard to know that Ingrid won’t be right next door every day.”

EU’s top diplomats to ‘fight’ over Ukraine arms supply – Hungary

Even the approach of Christmas “cannot dampen the mood of war” in the EU, according to the country’s foreign minister

A big fight” is looming in Brussels on Mondayover the allocation of billions of euros earmarked to arm Ukraine, Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto has warned.

The EU’s Foreign Affairs Council, comprising of bloc members' top diplomats, is eager to allocate funds to further arm Kiev through Christmas and New Year, during its final meeting of the year Monday, according to Szijjarto.

They “want to free up more than €6 billion” to purchase arms for Ukraine, Szijjarto wrote on Facebook, before the meeting began.

“Even the approach of Christmas cannot dampen the mood of war,” he claimed.“Even with the possibility of a Christmas ceasefire and mass prisoner exchanges on the table,” the EU’s top diplomats will nevertheless discuss further arming Ukraine, he lamented.

Last week, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban proposed a Christmas ceasefire and a major prisoner exchange between Russia and Ukraine. Kiev has since rejected the proposal.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Thursday that Moscow supports Orban’s initiatives and hopes that consultations on peace will continue.

“There will be a big fight today, but we will not give in… we need a ceasefire in Ukraine, not more weapons!” concluded Szijjarto.

Hungary, along with neighboring Slovakia, is opposed to the EU policy of arming Kiev and has been calling for a diplomatic solution to the conflict.

The meeting in Brussels is being chaired for the first time by the new EU high representative for foreign affairs and security policy, Kaja Kallas.

The Estonian diplomat took over from Josep Borrell on December 1. She has advocated for tougher sanctions on Russia and is known for her strident stance against Moscow.

@repandybiggsaz

Biden, Harris, and their cronies are hard at work undermining President Trump’s Administration weeks before he takes office.

Selling parts for our border wall at bottom dollar is infuriatingly out of touch with the mandate delivered by the American electorate.

Trump says Zelensky not invited to inauguration

The incoming president will be officially sworn in on January 20

Ukraine’s Vladimir Zelensky was not invited to attend US President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration ceremony next month, the incoming president told reporters on Monday.

Trump, who defeated Democratic rival Kamala Harris last month, will officially be sworn in as the 47th president of the US on January 20 at an inauguration ceremony at the Capitol in Washington, DC.

On Monday, Trump held his first formal press conference since winning the election.

Asked by journalists whether he had invited Zelensky,Trump responded, “No, I didn’t invite him.” He, however, added, “If he’d like to come, I’d like to have him.”(KEK)

Trump met with Zelensky this month in Paris along with French President Emmanuel Macron for talks centered on the Ukraine crisis. Trump, who was reportedly reluctant to meet Zelensky, said afterwards that he wanted the hostilities between Moscow and Kiev to end as soon as possible.

NBC reported later that Trump’s team has been working hard to broker a truce between Ukraine and Russia that could pave the way for peace talks. Trump has repeatedly slammed the administration of current President Joe Biden for its handling of the conflict and claimed that the hostilities never would have broken out at all with him in the White House.

According to media reports, Trump has invited Chinese President Xi Jinping to attend the inauguration. The offer was reportedly made in early November, shortly after Trump’s election victory. However, it remains unclear whether Xi has accepted the invitation.

CBS has reported, citing sources, that China’s ambassador to the US and his spouse are expected to attend the event, as per standard practice.

Trump’s team has suggested hosting other leaders at the Capitol on January 20 in addition to Xi. While ambassadors and diplomats are typically invited,State Department records since 1874 indicate that no foreign leader has ever attended the transfer-of-power ceremony.

Among other officials invited, various media outlets have namedArgentine President Javier Milei, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, and Salvadorian President Nayib Bukele.

Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov said last weekthat the Kremlin did not receive an invitation, according to RBK.(it was announced he invited Putin? Oh got it: "They said "the Kremlin", did not receive an invitation, not specifically Putin.)

(Zelensky sucks up the air everywhere he goes.)

Some more Wisconsin shooter info, and the third page of her "manifesto."

- Her boyfriend had known her for two years. They were in a long-distance relationship and had never met in person. They met on social media.

- He says she never previously expressed any desire to commit a shooting, and only sent him her manifesto the day of the shooting.

- Timestamps of their messages shown to me demonstrate she sent it to him via WhatsApp at approximately 10:30 am (eastern). She posted it to Twitter at 11:50 am (eastern). The shooting occurred around 11:57 am (eastern).

- He did not see her message until 1:12 pm (eastern), at which point the act had been committed and she was already deceased.

- He describes her as being kind, generous towards him, and cheerful. He describes her as always making him gifts and never expecting anything in return.

@ShadowofEzra

The alleged shooter at Abundant Life Christian School in Madison has been identified as Samantha Rupnow, a biological female and self-proclaimed feminist who attended the school.

She was fascinated by true crime and admired the Columbine shooters.

There is speculation that a manifesto exists but is currently set to private on Google Docs.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Releases Report Confirming Radioactive Material Lost in Transit — Shipping Container Arrives Damaged and Empty in New Jersey

by Jim Hᴏft Dec. 16, 2024

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has confirmed that radioactive material was lost in transit earlier this month, heightening fears about public safety and sparking theories about mysterious drone activity in New Jersey.

Officer Lew, a prominent political commentator, highlighted the NRC’s event report during a review of regulatory alerts.

“While looking at the Nuclear Regulatory Commission Alerts. I can confirm that there is radioactive material that has gone missing on Dec 2nd, 2024 out of New Jersey. This might be the reason for the drones… just speculation at this point,” he wrote.

The missing material, identified as a Ge-68 pin source manufactured by Eckert & Ziegler, was reported lost by its licensee on December 3, 2024. Shipped for disposal, the container arrived at its destination severely damaged and empty.

According to the NRC’s report, the radioactive source, while classified as “Less than IAEA Category 3,” still poses potential risks if mishandled or exposed for prolonged periods.

According to the report:

AGREEMENT STATE REPORT – SOURCE LOST IN TRANSIT

The following information was provided by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) via email:

“The licensee reported to NJDEP on December 3, 2024, that a Ge-68 pin source that they sent for disposal has been lost in transit on December 2, 2024. The source is a Eckert & Ziegler model HEGL-0132, with current approximate activity of 0.267 mCi. The shipping container arrived at its destination damaged and empty. The licensee has filed a claim with the shipper. If the source is not located within the 30 days, the licensee will follow-up with a full written report to include root cause(s) and corrective actions.

“This event is reportable under 10 CFR 20.2201(a)(1)(ii).”

New Jersey Event Report ID number: To be determined

THIS MATERIAL EVENT CONTAINS A ‘Less than Cat 3’ LEVEL OF RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL

Sources that are “Less than IAEA Category 3 sources,” are either sources that are very unlikely to cause permanent injury to individuals or contain a very small amount of radioactive material that would not cause any permanent injury. Some of these sources, such as moisture density gauges or thickness gauges that are Category 4, the amount of unshielded radioactive material, if not safely managed or securely protected, could possibly – although it is unlikely – temporarily injure someone who handled it or were otherwise in contact with it, or who were close to it for a period of many weeks.

Just as this radioactive mishap was quietly made public, a string of mysterious drone sightings over New Jersey has raised eyebrows.

John Ferguson, CEO of Saxon Aerospace LLC and an expert in unmanned aerial systems, has presented a startling theory: the drones may be searching for the missing radioactive material.

Ferguson: My belief is they’re trying to smell something on the ground, gas, leaks, radioactive material, whatever… I do believe that they’re flying low enough that they’re just trying to sniff the ground and try to find something. So again, I hate to be a pessimist or a guy that thinks directly to the negative. However, I know as a professional, we build professional stuff for the military. I believe that they’re actually out there trying to smell something that’s very important.

However, Ferguson linked the sightings of drones to a more shocking claim: the disappearance of over 80 nuclear warheads from Ukraine after the collapse of the Soviet Union.

According to Ferguson, these weapons have never been fully accounted for, and at least one of them may have been headed toward the United States.

Ferguson recounted a conversation with a government insider who physically handled one of the missing warheads, only to see his warnings ignored by U.S. authorities.

Judge Tanya Chutkan: A Radical Marxist in a Robe Waging War on America

Tanya Chutkan: A Radical Marxist in a Robe Waging War on America

The American judiciary, once the pillar of fairness and justice, has been infiltrated by ideologues hell-bent on dismantling the Constitution. Nowhere is this more evident than in the actions of Judge Tanya Chutkan, whose record reveals a blatant bias against conservatives and an unrelenting dedication to advancing the radical Marxist agenda.

Elevated to power by Barack Obama, Chutkan has become a symbol of the weaponization of the judiciary, earning her the moniker “Antifa Woman of the Year” for her unapologetic allegiance to leftist extremism. In essence, Judge Chutkan is Susan Rosenberg in a robe—a revolutionary hiding behind the gavel.

Tanya Chutkan: A Radical Marxist Legacy

Judge Tanya Chutkan’s Marxist worldview is no coincidence—it is her legacy. Her maternal grandfather, Frank Hill, was a communist revolutionary in Jamaica who co-founded the socialist People’s National Party (PNP). Hill’s radical collectivist policies devastated Jamaica’s economy and future, leaving a legacy of economic stagnation and political instability. This ideology runs through Chutkan’s veins.

Barack Obama, a president known for his affinity for anti-American radicals, handpicked Chutkan for her role on the D.C. bench. Her appointment was part of a calculated effort to infiltrate the judiciary with operatives loyal to the far-left cause. Chutkan’s actions reveal her true intent: to transform the judiciary into a weapon for silencing dissent, crushing political opponents, and advancing a collectivist, anti-American vision.

The Susan Rosenberg of the Judiciary

Tanya Chutkan’s record draws chilling parallels to Susan Rosenberg, the notorious left-wing domestic terrorist involved in bombings and violence during the 1980s. While Rosenberg’s crimes included bombing the U.S. Capitol and plotting armed insurrections, she has since been embraced by the left and now lectures on “justice reform.” Chutkan, from her bench, embodies the same revolutionary spirit as Rosenberg—though her tools are judicial rulings, not explosives. Like Rosenberg, she operates with a disdain for the Constitution, using her position to advance a political agenda that threatens the very fabric of America.

Her rulings consistently punish peaceful conservatives while excusing violent leftist radicals. Her disproportionate sentencing of January 6th defendants, compared to the leniency shown to Antifa and Black Lives Matter rioters, is a glaring example of her willingness to apply “justice” selectively to favor her ideological allies.

Rewarding Violence, Punishing Prayer

The double standard Chutkan champions couldn’t be clearer. In 2020, violent mobs openly attacked police, hurled explosives, burned cities, and looted businesses in the name of “social justice.” Many declared their intent to prevent the peaceful transfer of power by opposing President Trump. Yet these radicals were rewarded with over $4 million in settlements for alleged mistreatment. Their actions, framed as a righteous stand against Trump, were not only excused but celebrated by the left and the judiciary alike.

Meanwhile, on January 6th, peaceful protesters who entered the Capitol—some to pray—have been labeled “insurrectionists” and subjected to unprecedented legal persecution. Chutkan has led the charge in punishing these individuals, often exceeding prosecutorial recommendations and issuing harsh sentences designed to send a political message. Her disregard for individual intent, proportionality, and fairness makes it clear: this is not about justice. This is about vengeance.

>>274199

there are many different types of notes that were issued.

In the twentith century the history of the depravity of the Marxist Rossevelt cleptocracy was clearly documented by the currency.

Just pick up a book on Paper Money of the United States of America and read through the indroductory chapters. It won't be political but what happened will be obvious.

The Federal Reserve notes USED TO have a gold clause. It was removed.

Then the Gold Certificates went away.

then the National Bank Notes went away with the National Banks. They had 'lawful money' depostied in the Treasury. The Democrats did away with them meanwhile letting the Federal Reserve banksters and their cabal cronies loot all the districts where National Banks had a bank run.

in the 1930s Rosevelt let his bankster pals confiscate as much gold as people were stupid enough to give them. Gold was no longer minted, Gold Certificates were no longer issued.

The Red Seal United States Notes were still issued. This was a kind of money authorized during the Civil War period.

Next the Silver Certificates went away.

Silver coinage went away at the same time.

The Red Seals are still in issue, with a large amount of 100 dollar bills issued in the 1960s (these are very collectible).

Well, so now we have the Federal Reserve Notes.

When the Federal Reserve is reformed or eliminated I expect us to have Silver and Gold notes again, as well as silver and gold coins.

We'll see.

Just thought I'd drop this piece of history here. Anyone remember this? Seemed out of place at the time, but it seems pretty relevant in the vicinity of the mysterious drone army appearing. Note they weren't landing at the naval yard. Seems like something out of a movie.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_bank_(United_States)

"In the United States, a national bank is an ordinary private bank operating within the federal government's regulatory structure, which usually but not always operates in multiple U.S. states,[1] and is under the supervision of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency.[2] Depending on the matter, it also may have to comply with some U.S. state regulations. It is legally required to be a member of the Federal Reserve System.[3] A national bank in the U.S. is distinguished from a state bank, whose permit or charter is granted by one of the U.S. states,[1] and can only do business in that state.[2]"

National Banks could issue their own currency!

"Additionally, from the 1860s until the program was retired in 1935, national banks could issue National Bank Notes, currency backed by bonds deposited with the Treasury. "

There were hundreds of National Banks.

Thus there are very many different localles that have currency with their names on it.

These notes are highly collectible for that reason. These notes were very common before they were no longer allowed to be issued.

The United States Note.

Some say the 100's are what got JFK targetted!

The 1928 one dollar was ONLY RELEASED in Puerto Rico!

also issued were twos and fives.

Until 1976 two dollar bills were all red seal United States Notes.

Fives came in Green Seal Federal Reserve notes, red seal United States Notes, and Blue Seal Silver Certificates.

During WWII issues for the Pacific Theater of the war had a 'HAWAII' over printed on the backs AND the seals were brown These were Federal Reserve Notes.

So this is how to unplug from CCP AI BCPS if they snuck one of their covert non-invasively dosed audio-video-communications nanotechnology CNT and weaponized-pathogen nanotechnology spy bugs in you.

Figure 1: Imagine that you are the proton and that the lines pointing away from the proton are in the “near-field” and that the kink is the spectrum transition point from the “near-field” to the “far-field”.

The use of Global Psionic ELF transmitters entrains your brain (analog brain, not cybernetically enhanced nanotechnology based brain overlay (e.g. synthetic biology)).

The first step to get out of the ChinaCCP trap is to ensure you have an eSIM with 5G+ mmWave technology from a big tech firm that is not committed to long-term manufacturing in China. This rules out Apple (why Warren Buffet and team dumped their stock), keeps Google in Play and gives Samsung an awesome position to capitalize upon as Samsung in S. Korea is independent of China and China is gunning down S. Korea due to this fact (recall the recent riots).

The second step is to ensure you have an on-body ELF transmitter that utilizes the H-field (magnetic field). This locally disconnects you from China CCP ELF transmitter, the world’s largest. In figure 1 from an ELF perspective if the lines connect to you the proton from the ELF signals, you’re psionically captured by ChinaCCP PLA or any other group for that matter. The lack of a continual line can be accomplished safely by the use of a local PEMF H-field ELF transmitter that is strong enough to over-power the world’s background ELF as well as local electrical grid power 60 Hz and 50 Hz magnetic field harmonics.

Canada #68

The Paris Accords As “Climate Insurance”—Unaffordable and Unnecessary

originally was published by Real Clear Wire Dec. 15, 2024

The climate change debate continues to rage. Though the science remains “unsettled,” what does seem settled is that President Trump will withdraw, again, from the now infamous Paris Climate Accords. Importantly, those accords are centered on pledges made to modify national energy policies.

A decision to exit the Paris Accords is no mere gesture. The central fact for citizens everywhere is that putative “climate solutions” would deploy trillions of dollars and implement mandates and diktats for the supply and use of energy in every aspect of society.

The stated rationale for proposals to alter completely how civilization is fueled is the need for an “insurance policy” against future climate catastrophes. In that framing, the climate-fearful argue that some possibility of consequential future harms warrants the “responsible” decision to “buy” insurance now. But this often-argued “insurance” construct assumes that we know enough to say that the consequences of future climate change justify paying for the insurance—and collaterally, that we know the “insurance” itself will be affordable.

It turns out that we do know quite a bit about both those domains. As we outline below, reality tells us that the climate-change consequences that we’re trying to avoid will be modest—and that the costs of the “insurance” are staggering.

What are we insuring against?

The proposition of paying for “climate insurance” requires that we first consider the “benefits” of 50-year decarbonization, a timescale that comes from the Paris goal of limiting global average temperature rise to 2C. We can then turn to weighing those benefits against the cost of achieving so-called “net zero” greenhouse gas emissions. That comparison is complicated, not least because of the uncertainties on the impacts allegedly avoided by reducing human influences on the climate. There’s also the issue of “costs and benefits to whom,” as well as the question of whether there is in fact urgency to reduce emissions.

There are three points to make: the timescale for emissions reduction is arbitrary; the climate “threat” is far from dire; and the cost/benefit calculus very much depends on who is doing the calculation.

Start with the Paris goal itself, which seeks to keep the rise in average global surface temperature to less than 2C, which the climate modelers say would require net zero global emissions in the latter half of this century. Meanwhile, emissions are continuing to rise and will again reach an all-time high this year. The subtitles of the UN’s annual Emission Gap Report give a flavor of the lack of progress: in 2023 it was a “Broken record . . . Temperatures hit new highs, yet world fails to cut emissions (again)”, and this year it was “No more hot air, please.” But even that 2C is not a hard limit. When Hans Schellnhuber, the so-called “father of the two-degree limit,” was once asked why he gave that number, he responded that it was about right, and it was an easy number for politicians to remember. There is no credible case to make that all manner of chaos will suddenly break out if the temperature rises two, or even three, degrees.

Next is the question of whether the climate threat is so dire that it requires precipitous and Promethean actions—transforming the entire world’s energy system in a few decades. The answer to that question is not as uncertain as the doomsayers claim. There is some guidance from recent history, since the globe has warmed 1.3C in the past 120 years and about the same amount of warming is expected over the next century. Rather than catastrophe, humanity has seen unprecedented prosperity over that period: the global average lifespan has gone from 32 years to 72 years, per capita GDP has increased sevenfold, the literacy rate has soared, and the death rate from extreme weather events has decreased by a factor of 50! So, it’s hard to believe that a comparable warming over the next century will significantly derail such progress. In fact, the consensus of economic impact studies, as published last year by the Biden White House, is that there would be a few-percent decrement in the GDP for a few degrees of warming. That’s “in the noise,” as we physicists say. Of course, there will be differential impacts, there are uncertainties, and GDP isn’t the only measure of wellbeing. Nevertheless, predictions of catastrophe are not credible.

If you listen to the popular media, you might believe that we humans have already broken the climate. Yet even the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) can’t find any climatically significant trends in most climate impact drivers, let alone attribute them to human influences. Losses from extreme weather events are in fact declining as a percentage of GDP as the world becomes more resilient. And projections of the magnitude of future warming have decreased as the IPCC refines its models and the world emits somewhat less CO2 than had been expected because of both slower growth and a shift to carbon-light energy sources.

Finally, there’s the question of “worth it to whom.” While the 1.5 billion of us in the developed world have adequate energy, most of the world craves far more. The inequalities are astounding. Nigerian per capita energy consumption is 30 times smaller than that in the U.S., and some 3 billion people use less electricity each year than is consumed by an average U.S. refrigerator. Fossil fuels are the most effective way of providing the reliable and affordable energy those folks need to improve their lot, so any restraints on those fuels immorally hinders their development. In short, decarbonization is an unaffordable luxury for most people. They face many more immediate, tangible, and soluble problems than the risk of some future climate impacts, the latter best summarized as “we don’t know what, we don’t know when, and we don’t know how severe.”

Urging, cajoling, and requiring the developing world to forswear fossil fuels, as the World Bank and other financiers have been doing, is directly contrary to human flourishing. It’s like telling a starving person, “Don’t eat that steak because it might raise your cholesterol.”

Taiwan receives first batch of US-made Abrams tanks

Taipei, Taiwan —

Taiwan has received 38 advanced Abrams battle tanks from the United States, the defense ministry said Monday, reportedly the island's first new tanks in 30 years.

Washington has long been Taipei's most important ally and biggest arms supplier — angering Beijing, which claims Taiwan as part of its own territory.

The M1A2 tanks — the first batch of 108 ordered in 2019 — arrived in Taiwan late Sunday and were transferred to an army training base in Hsinchu, south of the capital Taipei, the defense ministry said.

The M1A2s are the first new tanks to be delivered to Taiwan in 30 years, the semi-official Central News Agency said.

Taiwan's current tank force consists of around 1,000 Taiwan-made CM 11 Brave Tiger and U.S.-made M60A3 tanks, technology that is increasingly obsolete.

Abrams tanks, which are among the heaviest in the world, are a mainstay of the U.S. military.

Taiwan faces the constant threat of an invasion by China, which has refused to rule out using force to bring the self-ruled island under its control.

China's foreign ministry on Monday urged the United States to "stop arming Taiwan… and supporting Taiwan independence forces."

"The Taiwan authorities' attempt to seek independence through force and foreign help is doomed to fail," ministry spokesman Lin Jian said.

"China will firmly defend its national sovereignty, security and territorial integrity."

While it has a home-grown defense industry and has been upgrading its equipment, Taiwan relies heavily on U.S. arms sales to bolster its security capabilities.

Taiwan requested the state-of-the-art M1A2 tanks in 2019, allocating the equivalent of more than $1.2 billion for them. The rest of the order is expected to be delivered in 2025 and 2026, an army official told AFP.

While U.S. arms supplies to Taiwan are enshrined into law, a massive backlog caused by Covid-19 supply chain disruptions and U.S. weapons shipments to Ukraine and Israel have slowed deliveries to Taiwan.

The backlog now exceeds $21 billion, according to Washington think tank Cato Institute.

Taiwan would be massively outgunned in terms of troop numbers and firepower in any war with China and in recent years has increased spending on its military.

Taipei allocated a record $19 billion for 2024 and next year's budget is set to hit a new high as it seeks to bolster its defense approach.

China has increased military pressure on Taiwan in recent years, regularly deploying fighter jets and warships around the island.

Taiwanese authorities said last week that China had held its biggest maritime drills in years, with around 90 ships deployed from near the southern islands of Japan to the South China Sea.

The vessels simulated attacks on foreign ships and practiced blockading sea routes, a Taiwan security official said previously.

Beijing did not confirm the drills and its defense ministry did not say whether the maneuvers had taken place when asked at a press conference on Friday.

Apple M1 City’s Bioinic Chipset Pierced by NeuroStrike [1] every person on earth with an M1 or newer has been compromised by ChinaCCP AI BCPS in one way shape form or another. The silicon chip flaw, enables secret key as well as wireless non-invasive ni neurotechnology brain-machine-interfaces bmi with the human brain. https://mashable.com/article/apple-silicon-m-series-chip-vulnerability-hackers-encryption-keys

So what does a bionic chipset, when enabled with wireless technology and interfaced with a person that has synthetic biology successfully integrated into them (not all people are successfully integrated with synthetic biology, due to various factors)? It gives you “superhuman” performance or “degradation” effects depending upon the use case and is by all means a double-edge sword, as billions of Apple users are now finding out as well as Tik Tok users (the use of both has to be worse than the use of either independently to be optogenetically hacked as well as hardware bionic chip hacked). God bless those neurocompromised people out there, billions of them now.

In the world of neurotechnology, there are two areas:

Content (byte-based)

Consumption of information via screen of smart TV or smart phone or from bluetooth chipset or other wireless chipset linked to the phone

Hardware delivery pipelines for content (data in-the-flow byte-based)

access to the secret keys on a hardware device and operating system enable data-in-the-flow intercepts and direct delivery of neurotechnology enabled information, through apps like Tik Tok to directly and covertly influence a user’s behavior through direct physical control of the mind through a hybrid synthetic biology based niBMI channel build-out that can be switched per key signal. When a phone manufacturer’s secret keys are hackable, then all bets are off on securing the device’s neurotechnology hardware and software data in the flow intercepts. Therefore, the M1+ series of Apple phones are broken and in my professional opinion immediately cease use of, above and beyond the fact that they are manufactured in China. The phones have backdoors in that can give ChinaCCP neurotechnology access to your brain data and contro you (worse case):

Figure 2: Neurotechnology linkage of cybernetic non-invasively dosed niBMI channels in the brain of a person, shopping preferences, relationship preferences, ideas (e.g. intellectual property theft is key target of ChinaCCP with their NeuroStrike).

So, now the question is what smart phones are safe? Well since ChinaCCP turned on their 3d space, time and the vacuum weapon of war anything made before or on 2016-2017 and not in China or affiliated with a Chinese national (e.g. their government). Specifically, avoid Lenovo, as that is a guaranteed ChinaCCP backdoor into you as well as neurotechnology backdoor. I can’t stand ChinaCCP and their mind and brain thievery/theft.

'Biden got it absolutely wrong': Pa. officials condemn clemency for 'kids for cash' judge

-President Biden commuted the sentence of former Luzerne County judge Michael Conahan, who was convicted in the "kids for cash" scandal.

-Conahan accepted bribes in exchange for sending children to for-profit detention centers.

-The decision has drawn criticism from victims, politicians, and the public.

-Biden commuted the sentences of nearly 1,500 people nationwide in the closing days of his administration.

President Joe Biden this week granted clemency to a former Luzerne County judge convicted in the infamous “kids for cash” scheme to send children to for-profit detention centers in exchange for kickbacks.

Michael Conahan, now 72, was sentenced to 17½ years in prison in 2011 in connection with the judicial scandal, which the FBI described as the “worst in Pennsylvania’s history.”

He and a second judge, Mark Ciavarella, were charged with accepting $2.8 million in kickbacks for diverting hundreds of children to PA Child Care and Western PA Child Care, two for-profit juvenile facilities. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court tossed out the convictions for about 2,300 children whose cases were affected by the scandal, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer.

Biden’s decision to commute the notorious judge’s sentence drew condemnation from State Sen. Lisa Baker, a Republican who called it “incomprehensible and indefensible.”

2016:Judge in 'kids for cash' case wants his conviction tossed

“Where does ruining the lives of vulnerable kids in order to enrich oneself warrant a presidential commutation?” Baker, who represents part of Luzerne County, said in a prepared statement. “It is truly disheartening to see a national leader on criminal justice issues for decades so wantonly undermine the rule of equal justice in his waning days.”

Speaking Friday in Scranton, Gov. Josh Shapiro acknowledged that he's not privy to all the information that factored into the federal commutations but said he does feel "President Biden got it absolutely wrong and created a lot of pain here in Northeastern Pennsylvania."

"This was not only a black eye on the community, the kids for cash scandal, but it also affected families in really deep and profound and sad ways," the Democratic governor said. "Some children took their lives because of this. Families were torn apart."

Kids for cash victim Amanda Lorah also decried the commutation.

"It’s a big slap in the face for us once again,” Lorah told WBRE-TV news in Wilkes-Barre.

All told, almost 1,500 people nationwide — including individuals in about 50 Pennsylvania cases — have had their sentences commuted by Biden during the closing days of his administration. The outgoing president chose individuals who moved from prison to home confinement during the COVID-19 pandemic.

In 2020, Conahan received permission to leave a Miami prison and start serving his sentence at home because of an underlying health condition that put him at risk of severe illness from the coronavirus, the Associated Press reported.

Ciavarella is serving a 28-year sentence at a North Carolina detention center and isn’t scheduled for release until June 2034, according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons.

Biden commuted sentences in several dozen other Pennsylvania cases, including

-Rafael Cordero, a former Philadelphia police officer convicted of feeding confidential information to his half-brother, a gang member;

-Aaron Johnson, a Harrisburg man sentenced to 11 years in prison for committing four armed bank robberies;

-Matthew Kolodesh, a Bucks County hospice owner accused of defrauding Medicare out of more than $16 million;

-David Francis, a McKees Rocks rehab owner convicted of dealing heroin, often to current or former patients in his treatment center; and

-Gregory Podlucky, former CEO of a Pennsylvania soft drink company who ran a roughly $685 pyramid scheme and used the ill-gotten money to build a mansion and buy jewels.

NDAA passed by Republican House allows DHS to sell border wall materials

President-elect Donald Trump has called on President Joe Biden to halt the sale of unused border wall components originally intended for projects along the U.S.-Mexico border. The materials, including steel bollards, recently appeared for sale on GovPlanet, a government surplus auction marketplace.

During a news conference Monday, Trump expressed frustration with the Biden administration over the auctions, which involved materials left in southern Arizona after Biden paused wall construction early in his presidency.

"I'm asking today, Joe Biden, to please stop selling the wall," Trump said, emphasizing the cost of the materials. He accused Biden of increasing expenses by selling the components just as his administration prepares to resume construction.

"It's very expensive, and now it's about double the price of what it would have been six years ago," Trump said on Monday. "And the (Biden) administration is trying to sell it for 5 cents on the dollar, knowing that we're getting ready."

The auction listings have ignited debate online, with many questioning why the materials were sold when Trump campaigned to finish the wall.

Rep. Eli Crane, R-Ariz., told The Daily Wire, which first reported the auctions, that the Biden administration was “purposefully hamstringing” the incoming Trump presidency.

Former Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey also criticized the sales, calling them a “last-ditch effort to keep America’s borders open by selling off materials the Trump administration will use to finish the wall.”

So why are the materials for the construction of more border fence being moved now?

The answer is in the National Defense Authorization Act, a law passed by Congress in the 2024 fiscal year.

Why are the materials being sold?

Section 2890 of the National Defense Authorization Act, introduced by Republican lawmakers in the House, requires the Department of Defense to develop a plan to use, transfer or donate all “covered materials” purchased for border barrier construction between fiscal years 2017 and 2022.

The law mandated that the Department of Defense submit a plan “to use, transfer, or donate to States on the southern border of the United States all covered materials” within 75 days of the National Defense Authorization Act’s enactment and begin executing it 100 days later.

The process continued “until the date on which the Department of Defense is no longer incurring any costs to maintain, store, or protect the covered materials.” This led to the eventual sale of a portion of these materials through GovPlanet, a government surplus marketplace.

After fulfilling requests from U.S. Customs and Border Protection and eligible border states, transferring nearly 60% of the materials, the Department of Defense sold the remaining 40% through a competitive sales contract.

“The material currently being sold through GovPlanet online auctions no longer belongs to the U.S. Government, and DoD has no legal authority to recall the material or stop further resale of material it no longer owns,” the Department of Defense told The Arizona Republic in a written statement.

Texas officials consider buying surplus panels

Among those taking note of the auctions is Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, who posted on X that the Texas Facilities Commission reviewed the panels listed for sale.

According to Patrick, the commission concluded that the materials up for auction were “mostly junk, with most panels covered in concrete and rust.” He noted that a few usable panels were “not worth the cost of shipping to Texas from Arizona.”

Still, Patrick emphasized the state’s willingness to assist the incoming administration if some panels meet their standards. “Make no mistake,” Patrick wrote, “Texas will make every effort, do whatever it takes, to assist the president, and we’re going to secure this border once and for all for the people of America and Texas.”

No authority to reclaim once sold

Because the materials have been sold, the Department of Defense can no longer direct their final use. Any future decisions about the materials rest entirely with their new owners, whether private buyers or states willing to pay the cost of transportation and refurbishment.

Judge merchan rejects Trump request to toss Bragg charges in New York on basis of presidential immunity

Judge Juan Merchan on Monday rejected Trump attorneys' request to dismiss charges brought against him by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg on the basis of presidential immunity.

The ruling comes after President-elect Trump and his team in July requested Merchan overturn his guilty verdict in New York v. Trump, citing the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling that presidents have immunity for official acts.

Merchan ruled that the evidence presented in the trial was related "entirely to unofficial conduct and thus, receive no immunity protections."

"Further, even if this Court were to deem all of the contested evidence, both preserved and unpreserved, as official conduct falling within the outer perimeter of Defendant’s Presidential authority, it would still find that the People’s use of these acts as evidence of the decidedly personal acts of falsifying business records poses no danger of intrusion on the authority and function of the Executive Branch, a conclusion amply supported by non-motive-related evidence," Merchan writes.

Merchan also argued that the Court said "if error occurred regarding the introduction of the challenged evidence, such error was harmless in light of the overwhelming evidence of guilt."

Merchan rejected that request, but has yet to rule on President-elect Trump's formal motion to dismiss the case altogether.

"Today’s decision by deeply conflicted, acting Justice Merchan in the Manhattan DA Witch Hunt is a direct violation of the Supreme Court’s decision on immunity, and other longstanding jurisprudence," Trump spokesman and incoming White House communications director Steven Cheung told Fox News Digital. "This lawless case should have never been brought, and the Constitution demands that it be immediately dismissed, as President Trump must be allowed to continue the Presidential Transition process, and execute the vital duties of the presidency, unobstructed by the remains of this, or any other, Witch Hunt."

Cheung added: "The sooner these hoaxes end, the sooner our country can unite behind President Trump for the betterment of all Americans."

Trump pleaded not guilty to 34 counts of falsifying business records in the first degree stemming from the yearslong investigation related to alleged hush money payments run by the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office. Former Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance initiated the investigation, and Bragg prosecuted Trump.

After an unprecedented six-week trial in New York City, a jury found the president guilty on all counts.

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that a former president has substantial immunity for official acts committed while in office.

In the formal motion in July, Trump attorney Todd Blanche pointed to the Supreme Court’s immunity decision, and argued that certain evidence of "official acts" should not have been admitted during the trial.

Specifically, Blanche argued that testimony from former White House Communications Director Hope Hicks; former Special Assistant to the President Madeleine Westerhout; testimony regarding The Special Counsel’s Office and Congressional Investigations and the pardon power; testimony regarding President Trump’s response to FEC Inquiries; his presidential Twitter posts and other related testimony was impermissably admitted during trial.

Meanwhile, Trump attorneys, earlier this month, officially requested to "immediately" dismiss charges against the president-elect in New York v. Trump, declaring the "failed lawfare" case "should never have been brought."

Trump attorneys said the case "would never have been brought were it not for President Trump’s political views, the transformative national movement established under his leadership, and the political threat that he poses to entrenched, corrupt politicians in Washington, D.C. and beyond."

Trump lawyers said that "wrongly continuing proceedings in this failed lawfare case disrupts President Trump’s transition efforts and his preparations to wield the full Article II executive power authorized by the Constitution pursuant to the overwhelming national mandate granted to him by the American people on November 5, 2024."

Bragg, last month, requested to Judge Juan Merchan that the case be stayed until the end of Trump’s second term, but Trump attorneys noted that the Office of Legal Counsel in the Justice Department concluded that "the categorical prohibition on the federal indictment of a sitting president…even if the case were held in abeyance…applies to this situation."

They added that Bragg's "ridiculous suggestion that they could simply resume proceedings after President Trump leaves Office, more than a decade after they commenced their investigation in 2018, is not an option."

Victoria Spartz will not caucus with Republicans

Rep. Victoria Spartz announced Monday that she is opting out from serving on committees next year and will boycott the House GOP conference meetings, a rare move given she also stated her intention to remain a Republican.

“I will stay as a registered Republican but will not sit on committees or participate in the caucus until I see that Republican leadership in Congress is governing. I do not need to be involved in circuses,” Spartz wrote on X.

The decision to step down confused some Republicans, but others suspected the move had something to do with the House GOP Steering Committee not giving her a coveted post on the House Ways and Means Committee, according to two people with direct knowledge of the matter.

Spartz, who has had problems with retaining staff, said she’d prefer to “spend more of my time helping” the mission of the so-called Department of Government Efficiency, which is meant to help cut government spending.

Some Republicans are happy about her decision to boycott the conference meetings, according to two people familiar with the situation, as some had privately complained about her speaking too much during the internal GOP meetings.

CNBC Poll: 73 percent of Americans support deploying U.S. Military at southern border

Americans say they are ready to support President-elect Donald Trump in his second term, and majorities give a green light to some of his controversial promises on the campaign trail, according to the CNBC All-America Economic Survey.

Yet the survey also found the public is flashing yellow and red warning lights on some parts of the Trump agenda.

Overall, the survey found that 54% of the public are “comfortable and prepared to support” Trump as president. That’s down 2 points from when he took office in 2016. Some 41% are not comfortable, up 5 points from 2016.

So, despite having won the popular vote in this election compared with 2016, Trump takes office for the second time with somewhat less net support in the poll.

“In 2016, there were a few more people who said, ‘I’m not sure,’ and took a kind of a wait-and-see approach,” said Jay Campbell, partner at Hart Research, the Democratic pollster for the survey. “Those numbers have dropped by half or more … People know what to expect with Donald Trump now.”

The survey of 1,000 people nationwide was taken Dec. 5-8. It has a margin of error of +/- 3.1%.

The survey found 60% say deploying the military to the border to stop illegal drugs and human trafficking should be a 2025 priority for the new administration, with an additional 13% saying it should still be done but later in the term. The proposal is only opposed outright by 24%, including 51% of Democrats, 12% of independents and 3% of Republicans.

Majorities of those surveyed also support cutting individual taxes, increasing deportation of undocumented immigrants, reducing the size of government, drilling for more oil on federal lands, and cutting taxes and regulation for business.

Where the potential agenda gets more contentious is most obvious in Trump’s plans to pardon those convicted of crimes in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. Just 43% support the move, with 50% opposing it, including 87% of Democrats, 46% of independents and 18% of Republicans. It’s the issue with the single largest Republican opposition.

Support for raising tariffs is also more lukewarm, with 27% backing it outright and 24% saying it can be done later in the term. It’s opposed by 42% of respondents.

Americans overall are more upbeat about the economic outlook for the second Trump presidency than they were the first, the survey found. More than half, or 51%, say they expect their personal financial situation to improve, 10 points higher than when he was elected in 2016; the same percentage, 51%, also say they expect the U.S. economy to improve, up 5 points from 2016.

There were also gains in the percentage believing they would be worse off, suggesting Trump is even more polarizing now than he was in his first term.

President Joe Biden, meanwhile, leaves office with Americans fairly downbeat on the economy, according to the poll. Just 25% believe the economy is excellent or good, and 73% say it’s fair or poor. Biden’s final economic approval rating comes in at 36%, with 58% disapproving. His -22 net positive rating is improved from his worst numbers in 2022 but are still deeply negative and a long way from the +5 when his term began.

But Americans are considerably more hopeful on the economic outlook, charged by Republican enthusiasm in the wake of the election. Forty-six percent of the public expect the economy to improve in the next year, up nine points from October, driven by a switch of Republicans and, to a lesser extent, independents from pessimistic to optimistic. At the same time, 33% say the economy will get worse, up 16 points, driven entirely by deeper downbeat views of Democrats.

“Trump’s walking into his second term with more sour moods about the current economy, but more hopeful attitudes about what’s to come,″ said Micah Roberts, partner at Public Opinion Strategies, the Republican pollster for the survey.

Forty percent of those surveyed say now is a good time to invest in stocks, with 27% saying it’s a bad time, the most positive Americans have been on stocks since 2019. It was a massive swing from last quarter and the past 3½ years when Americans have been neutral to deeply negative on stocks. It was driven by a complete about-face by Republicans on the stock market in the wake of the election. They are now 56 points more positive on whether this is a good time to invest in stocks compared with August.

Separately, the survey also found that while cryptocurrencies may be the hottest thing on Wall Street, that’s not true on Main Street, at least not yet. The survey shows just 13% of the public saying they own crypto and 15% saying it’s the best investment right now. That’s up 4 points since CNBC last asked the question in 2022, but it trails well behind real estate, stocks, gold and even savings accounts in the best-investment contest. Just 7% of the public say they would accept their wages in crypto, but another 22% said they might someday. Slightly more than 3 in 5, or more than 61%, say they will never accept their wages in crypto.

One-third of crypto owners are in the youngest cohort, ages 18 to 34. Just 9% are 65 and older.

Trudeau faces frustrated MPs after Chrystia Freeland's shock resignation

-At caucus meeting, some Liberal MPs tell PM he has to step down after Chrystia Freeland's shock resignation.

-Trudeau says he will take time to reflect on caucus concerns, sources say.

-At least seven Liberal MPs, including a former cabinet minister, publicly say Trudeau must resign.

-Public Safety Minister Dominic LeBlanc has been sworn in as Canada's new finance minister.

-Despite the drama, fall economic statement was tabled — showing a big deficit of more than $60B.

-Freeland says PM told her Friday he no longer wanted her to serve as finance minister.

-Rather than accept a job change, Freeland resigned Monday.

-In letter to Trudeau announcing her resignation, Freeland denounced Trudeau's "costly political gimmicks."

-Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre says Trudeau must call an election right away.

-NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh says Trudeau must resign.

-NDP House leader Peter Julian tells CBC News the party will vote non-confidence in the Liberal government if -Trudeau stays on into the new year.

-Prime Minister Justin Trudeau faced frustrated MPs at a hastily arranged caucus meeting late Monday following Chrystia Freeland's shocking decision to resign from cabinet just before she was to deliver the government's much-anticipated fall economic statement.

About 15 MPs took to the microphone to address Trudeau at that meeting, according to one Liberal MP who was in the room.

Most of the speakers said he has to step down after mismanaging his once-crucial relationship with Freeland, the outgoing deputy prime minister, the MP said.

Liberal sources told CBC News that Trudeau said he heard their concerns and would take time over the next few days to reflect on his future.

Trudeau said much the same thing after nearly two dozen MPs called on him to leave earlier this fall. He ended up rejecting those calls to leave the next day.

But this time, sources said, Trudeau hasn't decided what to do.

"I can say we're not united. There's still a number of our members who think we need a change in leadership and I'm one of them," Liberal Ontario MP Chad Collins told reporters after the caucus meeting.

The best way to stop what he called Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre's "Make Canada Great Again" agenda is to push Trudeau out, Collins said.

"I think the only path forward for us is to choose a new leader and present a new plan to Canadians with a different vision," he said.

Trudeau's only public comments on Monday came during a holiday party for Liberal donors. The prime minister said it had "not been an easy day" but otherwise didn't discuss Freeland's resignation or the caucus meeting.

Dominic LeBlanc was sworn in as finance minister following abrupt Freeland's departure — an apparent attempt by Trudeau to deploy a close confidant as he struggles to shore up his shaky government and restore some stability.

LeBlanc, who has been friends with the prime minister since childhood, is one of Trudeau's most trusted lieutenants.

The New Brunswick MP and cabinet minister recently joined Trudeau for dinner with U.S. president-elect Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago. He had been tasked with drafting the government's billion-dollar border plan to appease American concerns about drugs and migrants coming into the U.S. from Canada.

Speaking to reporters after taking on his new role, LeBlanc said he will temporarily retain his public safety and intergovernmental affairs duties while also serving as finance minister — an enormous workload.

Despite serious questions about Trudeau's future given what transpired today with Freeland, LeBlanc said the prime minister is focused on tackling persistent affordability and cost of living concerns — and dealing with the incoming Trump administration.

But the most immediate challenge for Trudeau is to appease an increasingly restless Liberal caucus and backbench MPs who want someone else in the top job.

Liberal MP Wayne Long, who was part of an earlier effort to oust Trudeau, said roughly a third of the 153 sitting Liberal MPs want the prime minister to go right away, while another third are on the fence and the remaining third are professed Trudeau loyalists.

Long said Trudeau must resign right away and trigger a leadership election to replace him.

"He's messing with his legacy and it's time to move on," Long told CBC News. "Canadians are screaming, caucus is vocal — it's just time, come on."

Freeland's resignation is a disastrous development for the government. It throws its economic agenda into a tailspin and leaves a huge gap on Trudeau's front bench at a time when Liberal Party support has collapsed in the polls.

Freeland's jaw-dropping move to leave just before tabling the economic statement is unprecedented. The statement is supposed to be the government's fiscal road map at a time of great uncertainty, as Canada stares down Trump's tariff threat.

In a letter to Trudeau that was subsequently posted to her social media account, the outgoing deputy prime minister said she had no choice but to resign after Trudeau approached her Friday about moving her to another cabinet role — minister without a portfolio with some responsibility for the Canada-U.S. relationship.

"On Friday, you told me you no longer want me to serve as your finance minister and offered me another position in the cabinet," Freeland wrote, addressing Trudeau. "Upon reflection, I have concluded that the only honest and viable path is for me to resign from the cabinet."

Freeland also took a jab at Trudeau's handling of the country's economy, denouncing what she called the government's "costly political gimmicks" and imploring him to work collaboratively with the country's premiers to take on Trump's tariffs.

She conceded that she and Trudeau have been "at odds" in recent weeks.

A senior government official told CBC News that Freeland's announcement was not expected today.

Just last week, at an event celebrating women in politics, Trudeau said he's a "proud feminist" and cited his appointment of Canada's first female finance minister.

"I've touted the adage, 'Add women, change politics,' which to us is more than just words," he said.

Two days later, Trudeau would ask Freeland to leave that post, effectively pushing out the most senior woman in government.

The resignation derailed the fall economic statement and left officials at a media lockup scrambling to figure out what to do after the person who was set to present the statement abruptly quit.

After an hours-long delay, the embargoed reading for reporters went ahead and the document was quietly tabled in Parliament without the usual pageantry.

The statement revealed Canada's finances are in worse shape than expected. The deficit for 2023-24 came in at $61.9 billion — billions more than the roughly $40 billion Freeland had promised it would be.

SoftBank

CEO Masayoshi Son announced a $100 billion investment in the U.S. over the next four years during a Monday visit to President-elect Donald Trump’s residence Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida.

The billionaire investor and founder of the Japanese tech-investing firm promised in the joint announcement with Trump to create 100,000 jobs at a minimum focused on artificial intelligence and related infrastructure. The money will be deployed before the end of Trump’s term.

“My confidence level to the economy of the United States has tremendously increased with his victory,” Son said. “President Trump is a double down president. I’m going to have to double down.”

SoftBank’s Son and Trump made a similar announcement in 2016 after Trump was elected president for the first time, with the Japanese firm agreeing to invest $50 billion in the U.S. with the aim to create 50,000 jobs.

“He’s doing this because he feels very optimistic about our country since the election,” Trump said. “This historic investment is a monumental demonstration confidence in America’s future, and it will help ensure that artificial intelligence, emerging technologies, and other industries of tomorrow are being created and grown right here in the USA.”

The funding could come from various sources controlled by SoftBank, including the Vision Fund, capital projects or chipmaker Arm Holdings

, where the firm is majority owner. Some of the money will not necessarily be newly raised, but could include some funding already announced such as SoftBank’s recent $1.5 billion investment in OpenAI, the tech firm behind chatbot ChatGPT.

Giorgia Meloni steps down as ECR president

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni is stepping down as president of the European Conservatives and Reformists (ECR), the right-wing group in the European Parliament that is increasingly calling the shots in Brussels.

“When I was asked to extend my term until the [EU] elections, I agreed,” Meloni on Sunday told an annual festival organized by her party, Brothers of Italy, which accounts for the biggest delegation in the ECR with 24 lawmakers, as reported by news agency ANSA.

“Now that the elections have taken place, I think I have fulfilled my duty and I want to announce that I am going to resign as president of the European Conservatives,” Meloni said, stressing that the group now “deserves to have a president who can deal with it full time.”

Poland’s former Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki has been vying for the leadership of the ECR, with his Law and Justice (PiS) party holding 20 MEPs.

Meloni, who has held the position since 2020, said she expected Morawiecki to run and would back him.

A man who was filmed by CNN being released by rebels from a Damascus jail was a former intelligence officer with the deposed Syrian regime, according to local residents, and not an ordinary citizen who had been imprisoned.

From USS Liberty Veterans' website:

"Sixth Fleet Abandons USS Liberty Under Fire

DoD Approves Of Their Action

The Department of Defense Law of War Program (DoD Directive 2311.01E – formerly DoD Directive 5100.77) provides that “All reportable incidents committed by or against U.S. personnel, enemy persons, or any other individual are reported promptly, investigated thoroughly, and, where appropriate, remedied by corrective action.”

On June 8, 2005 the USS Liberty Veterans Association submitted A Report of War Crimes Committed Against the USS Liberty, June 8, 1967 to the Department of Defense in accordance with the DoD Law of War Program.

The War Crimes Report we filed lists allegations of acts committed during the attack on our ship, including:

- The jamming of our radios on both US Navy tactical and international maritime distress frequencies;

- The use of unmarked aircraft by the forces attacking the USS Liberty;

- The deliberate machine gunning of life rafts we had dropped over the side in anticipation of abandoning ship; and

- The recall of two flights of rescue aircraft that had [b]een launched from Sixth Fleet aircraft carriers. After those flights were recalled, Sixth Fleet personnel listened to our calls for help as the attack continued knowing they were forbidden to come to our assistance.

The Department of Defense has unilaterally waived its obligation under the Department of Defense Law of War Program by refusing to investigate the allegations contained in the War Crimes Report. The Department of Defense has also refused to provide a speaker to address the crew of the USS Liberty and explain their actions with regard to the War Crimes Report."

Captured Ukrainian soldier tells about orders to shoot civilians in Russia’s Kursk Region

Artur Plombirus was conscripted from prison, where he was serving a sentence under Article 186 of the Ukrainian Criminal Code (robbery)

MOSCOW, December 16. /TASS/. Captured Ukrainian soldier Artur Plombirus, previously convicted of robbery, has claimed that his commanders instructed him to wear a Russian military uniform and shoot civilians in Russia’s bordering Kursk Region.

"I approached the Russian positions dressed in a Russian military uniform, pretending to ask for a cigarette and help with jump-starting my car. When those guys got out, I shot them. The commanders told me that if I encountered civilians, I should not speak Ukrainian, but kill them immediately. I shot one, and he fell, but I’m not sure if he was dead," he said in a video released by the Russian Defense Ministry.

Plombirus was conscripted from prison, where he was serving a sentence under Article 186 of the Ukrainian Criminal Code (robbery). "They promised to pay me and clear my record," the Ukrainian soldier explained.

Plombirus also mentioned that he surrendered in the Kursk Region. "We were defeated; they started dropping grenades on us; everyone was wounded, so I surrendered," he said.

Houthis fire ‘hypersonic’ missile at Tel Aviv

Israel claims to have shot down the incoming rocket without casualties

The Houthi movement that controls much of Yemen claimed on Monday to have successfully struck a target near Tel Aviv with a hypersonic ballistic missile. Israel said the missile was shot down on approach and caused no casualties.

The Yemeni Shia group has blockaded the Red Sea and launched missiles and drones at Israel for months, seeking to halt West Jerusalem’s offensive against the Palestinian enclave of Gaza.

Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saree said in a televised address on Monday that a “military target” near Tel Aviv was successfully struck with a hypersonic missile, declaring the operation a success.

Tennessee lawmakers could look at water fluoridation next session

Florida's surgeon general issued a guidance on Nov. 22 about a possible neuropsychiatric risk associated with fluoride exposure.

Tennessee could be one of the next states to address fluoride levels in drinking water as some question its benefits versus possible risks.

The debate over fluoridation reignited after statements from Robert F. Kennedy Jr., President-elect Donald Trump's nomination for secretary of Health and Human Services.

"On January 20, the Trump White House will advise all U.S​. water systems to remove fluoride from public water," Kennedy said in a post on X. "Fluoride is an industrial waste associated with arthritis, bone fractures, bone cancer, IQ loss, neurodevelopmental disorders, and thyroid disease."

"Many of these minerals have military applications…"

With many minerals, the U.S. government can increase domestic mining, processing, and recycling to help mitigate future supply cutoffs from China. Of course, building and expanding domestic capacity will take time, significant capital, and appropriate government policies, but it can be done.

However, for some minerals—such as bismuth and tungsten—the United States simply lacks the mineral reserves, scrap, and substitutes to fill supply gaps from a Chinese export ban. For instance, China supplied over 60 percent of America’s bismuth consumption from 2019 to 2022, and the United States has not produced bismuth since 1997. The U.S. National Defense Stockpile also has no inventory of bismuth.

For such minerals, the U.S. government—in addition to seeking to boost domestic production—should both increase inventories in the National Defense Stockpile and sign right-of-first refusal (ROFR) offtake agreements with existing overseas mineral producers. Such steps will help buttress the United States against future export bans.

With stockpiling, the U.S. government should acquire minerals from domestic producers when possible but prioritize acquiring supply wherever it is available including from China. For instance, with both bismuth and tungsten, China is far and away the world’s largest producer: it produces 80 percent of the world’s bismuth and 81 percent of its tungsten.

The second policy is signing ROFR offtake agreements with existing overseas mineral producers for their uncontracted production. In ROFR agreements, the U.S. government would have the first right—but not the obligation—to purchase a certain volume of mineral production before it is offered to other buyers.

Japan begins trial for gene therapy drug to grow new teeth in people who have missing teeth

By Rhoda Wilson on December 17, 2024

A clinical trial is underway in Japan to test the safety of a drug that grows new teeth in people with missing teeth. It has been described as an “antibody treatment.” This is disingenuous because it uses siRNA, a gene therapy technology.

Although it is claimed that the siRNA is locally administered, after the misinformation that the covid “vaccines” stayed at the site of the injection when in reality it was widely distributed throughout the body, should we trust them?

What is siRNA technology? Do we need trials to test if it is safe? No. We already know it is unsafe as proved by a siRNA injection that was approved for use in 2018 in the USA, and which is shockingly now being suggested for use in mRNA covid vaccine-injured people.

The German Government Has Collapsed

Conservative Treehouse, by Sundance

Posted By: 4250Luis, 12/17/2024 7:09:14 AM

The NATO war in Ukraine is essentially lost. Russia holds the strongest position against Kyiv and its supporters. President Donald Trump is set to take office in the USA raising new questions over Europeans’ trade relations, elimination of the Marshal Plan, and EU spending on their own common defense. Then add the slow-motion collapse of Trudeau’s Canadian government, and consider… Hungary has rebuked the Brussels control agenda. Georgia has rejected NATO and the EU’s manipulation. The government of France, essentially Germany’s most powerful partner leading the European Union, collapsed on a few short weeks ago.

Yikes…how does this play into the nuke sniffing drones all over the east coast????

Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov, head of Russia’s Radiological, Chemical, and Biological Defense Forces, has been killed along with his deputy in a bomb blast in southeastern Moscow early on Tuesday, officials have confirmed.

The explosion occurred around 6am outside a residential building on Ryazansky Avenue as Kirillov and his aide were leaving the premises to board an official vehicle.

Russian investigators said an improvised explosive device (IED) packed with about 300 grams of TNT was likely attached to an electric scooter near the building’s entrance. It was possibly detonated remotely, likely by a radio signal or mobile phone.

The blast shattered windows, damaged the building’s entrance, and destroyed the parked vehicle. Authorities have opened a criminal investigation under charges of murder, terrorism, and illegal weapons trafficking. Russia’s Investigative Committee chief, Aleksandr Bastrykin, has taken personal control of the case.

Investigators suspect Ukrainian special services orchestrated the attack, Moscow daily Kommersant reports, citing Kirillov’s prominence as a likely motive. He regularly appeared at military briefings, accusing Kiev and the US of operating biolaboratories and using chemical weapons. Ukrainian prosecutors had declared Kirillov a suspect in alleged chemical weapons use the day before the attack.

Kommersant described the incident as an “unprecedented crime.” The investigative team is analyzing surveillance footage and mobile phone data from the area to track potential suspects, it added.

Kirillov, 54, led Russia’s chemical, biological, and radiological defense forces since 2017. In October, the UK sanctioned him over claims of chemical weapons use in Ukraine, accusations Moscow has consistently denied. It insists it destroyed such materials back in 2017.

The blast came hours after President Vladimir Putin outlined how Russian forces hold the upper hand on the battlefield against Ukraine, in a landmark Moscow speech on Monday.

Investigators are considering whether the attack was intended to coincide with the major annual Ministry of Defense meeting, Russian media outlets report. Officials believe the perpetrators were likely paid for their involvement.

The Kremlin has yet to issue a public statement on the assassination.

Judge in Hunter Biden case sued over underage drinking party, alleged beating

he federal judge in Los Angeles who presided over Hunter Biden's criminal tax fraud case has been sued over a party at his home where “significant” underage drinking allegedly led to a guest being assaulted and later hospitalized.

The injured guest, Alex Wilson, filed the suit against U.S. District Judge Mark Scarsi and his wife, Laura Scarsi, alleging that they were negligent in allowing teens from “various schools, including Loyola High School and St. Francis High School,” to consume alcohol without proper supervision.

The party occurred sometime in 2023 — the lawsuit offers two conflicting dates — at the Scarsis' gated Pasadena mansion. While the festivities were underway, a fight among “heavily intoxicated underage minors” erupted in front of the Scarsis' home and on their property, according to the suit, which was filed Thursday in Los Angeles Superior Court and first reported by Law360.

Wilson alleges that one of the guests, Jackson Dorlarque, assaulted him and struck “his head and body on a curb on the Scarsi property.” From the beating, Wilson lost consciousness, sustained a traumatic brain injury, and had to be hospitalized for more than two weeks, according to the lawsuit. The suit contends that a “major” cut to Wilson’s face has left permanent scarring that "will require" plastic surgery.

Wilson's age, background and educational status are unclear, with the lawsuit offering just one detail: He is a resident of L.A. County. Wilson's attorney, James Orland, did not respond to multiple messages seeking comment.

In addition to the physical injuries, Wilson alleges he has suffered emotional trauma and social anxiety in the wake of the incident.

Wilson is seeking unspecified damages, arguing that the Scarsis did not properly supervise or secure the party and that they are liable “if they knowingly provide alcohol to minors or allow underage drinking to occur on their property

Wilson also brought an assault and battery claim against Dorlarque and his parents, Aaron Dorlarque and Jessica Brumfiel, arguing that the parents are liable for their son’s alleged conduct.

It's unclear whether Scarsi and his wife were present during the alleged party or beating. Scarsi did not respond to requests for comment, including an email sent to the judge's chambers. Dorlarque and his parents did not respond to messages seeking comment.

Then-President Trump appointed Scarsi, 59, to the federal bench in 2020. Before assuming his lifetime appointment, Scarsi was a prominent patent and intellectual property attorney.

From his courtroom in downtown L.A., he has presided over high-profile matters, including two cases brought by special counsel David Weiss: the prosecution of Hunter Biden and a separate prosecution of a former FBI informant, Alexander Smirnov.

Recently, Scarsi gained national attention after he penned a rebuke of President Biden’s reasons for issuing a “full and complete” pardon of his son, Hunter.

Scarsi was scheduled to sentence Hunter Biden, probably to prison, after Biden pleaded guilty to tax offenses. In Delaware, Biden had been convicted of illegally purchasing a gun, but the pardon wiped both convictions away.

Scarsi excoriated the president for asserting in a news release that his son was treated unfairly because of his last name. After also criticizing the president for offering an incomplete version of his son's criminal case, Scarsi tartly noted that the president enjoyed “broad authority to grant reprieves and pardons for offenses against the United States … but nowhere does the Constitution give the President the authority to rewrite history.”

Smirnov pleaded guilty Monday to lying to a federal agent about a fake bribery scheme involving the Bidens, along with tax evasion. Scarsi is scheduled to sentence Smirnov next month; prosecutors have agreed to seek four to six years in prison.

Kiev’s troops report abysmal conditions during Kursk incursion – Economist

Ukraine’s Vladimir Zelensky is pushing troops forward despite incurring heavy casualties on Russian territory

Ukrainian forces are complaining about terrible conditions in Russia’s Kursk Region, where they are struggling against the military superiority of their opponents, according to a report by The Economist.

Kiev launched its incursion in August with the stated goals of alleviating Russian pressure in other parts of the front line, and securing a bargaining chip for use in future peace talks.

Russia has a “massive” advantagein manpower and military hardware, while Ukrainians are having to endure pest infestations, bad weather, and enemy attacks, the British magazine said on Monday, citing interviews with troops on the ground.

“Rain, slush, snow, cold, mud, beetles, worms, rats, and glide bombs,” an NCO with Ukraine’s 95th Air Assault Brigade said of the situation. ==“In Kursk, death is always close; it practically holds your hand.”

“Every unit in Kursk has switched to defense,”an artillery commander with the 82nd Air Assault Brigade told the outlet.

Ukrainian journalistsworking for a local newspaper in the area bordering Kursk Regionno longer cover the incursion because they know “too much” to toe the official linethat it was “Ukraine’s great and only triumph of 2024," they told the British outlet.

The operation makes no military sense, Russian President Vladimir Putin claimed on Monday during a year-end meeting at the Defense Ministry.

“Whoever you ask, our andforeign military experts, all believe that this thing in Kursk is an adventure, ‘the Kursk adventure,’ they call it," he said.

The Ukrainian government is illegitimate and is =perpetrating crimes against Russian and Ukrainian citizens alike==, the president added.

The Russian military estimates Ukrainian losses during the Kursk incursion at over 41,000. Defense Minister Andrey Belousov said Kiev’s forces had suffered almost 1 million casualties in total during the conflict, including 560,000 this year alone, citing statistics in a report during the event chaired by Putin.

Ukrainian leader VladimirZelensky has reportedly ordered troops to hold onto Russian land at all costs, until Donald Trump is inauguratedas the next US president on January 20. Trump has said he wants to end the bloodshed as soon as possible, with some people poised to serve in his administration advocating for freezing the hostilities along the current front line.

Zelensky doesn't understand Trump

Is completely aware of Zelensky's lies to him. Orban reports all matters to Trump. Zelensky thinks he can deceive Trump, but Trump doesn't even want Z at his inauguration. Zelensky refused a Christmas cease fire and wouldn't even speak to Orban after he got approval with Putin. Zelensky won't even save or relieve his soldiers for a couple of days.

Kiev claims credit for Russian general’s assassination – media

Chemical defense chief Igor Kirillov was murdered in Moscow along with his aide

Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) was behind the assassination of Russian General Igor Kirillov, multiple media outlets reported on Tuesday, citing anonymous sources in the agency.

Kirillov, the commander of the Russian Radiological, Chemical, and Biological Defense Forces, was killed by an explosion, along with his aide, in southeastern Moscow early on Tuesday.The murder took place hours after the general was accused by Kiev of being linked to the use of chemical agents on the battlefield, a claim Moscow denies outright.

Investigators suspect that the bomb was hidden inside an electric scooter handle bar and was triggered remotely, Russian media reported.

Reuters, the BBC, and Ukrainian media outlets have cited what appears to be the same statement by an SBU source describing the 54-year-old Russian officer as “a war criminal and an absolutely legitimate target” for assassination.

Dmitry Medvedev, the deputy chair of the Russian Security Council,has called the murder of Kirillov a sign of “agony” of the Ukrainian government, “which uses its remaining strength to justify its worthless existenceto Western masters, prolong war and death, and explain away the catastrophic situation on the front line.”

The leaders in Kiev cannot terrorize the Russian people and will be held accountable for their crimes, Medvedev added.

The generaltook the helm of the Russian military branch in 2017.He was involved in investigating alleged Ukrainian use of chemical weapons against Russian troops, and provided regular reports aboutAmerican labs in Ukraine which he claimed were involved in biological warfare research.

Kiev operates an extensive assassination program, targeting people it considers enemies of Ukraine, according to media reports and statements by former officials.

Moscow says Kiev is resorting to terrorist tactics due to its military failures. Russian investigators have accused the Ukrainian government of killing journalist Darya Dugina, military blogger Vladlen Tatarsky, and other civilians.

Near to the Heart Nebula

What excites the Heart Nebula? First, the large emission nebula on the upper left, catalogued as IC 1805, looks somewhat like a human heart. The nebula glows brightly in red light emitted by its most prominent element, hydrogen, but this long-exposure image was also blended with light emitted by sulfur (yellow) and oxygen (blue). In the center of the Heart Nebula are young stars from the open star cluster Melotte 15 that are eroding away several picturesque dust pillars with their atom-exciting energetic light and winds. The Heart Nebula is located about 7,500 light years away toward the constellation of Cassiopeia. This wide field image shows much more, though, including the Fishhead Nebula just below the Heart, a supernova remnant on the lower left, and three planetary nebulas on the image right. Taken over 57 nights, this image is so deep, though, that it clearly shows fainter long and complex filaments.

Ukrainian troops ‘kept in cages’ – MP

Soldiers also suffered cracked skulls after beatings by officers who were attempting to extort money, Yulia Yatsik has said

Ukrainian soldiers have suffered serious physical abuse at the hands of their officers, including being kept in cages, Kiev MP Yulia Yatsik said on Monday. She was commenting on a media exposé published earlier in the day.

Some victims sustained cracked skulls and ruptured internal organs as a result of beatings, the lawmaker stated in an interview with online Ukrainian outlet Novini.Live. Others have been kept in cages for failing to submit to officers, she added. ==Military investigators have had evidence of the crimes for months, Yatsik stressed.

The MP added details to a report by the Ukrainskaya Pravda newspaper, which described alleged harassment and extortion of troops by officers of the211th pontoon bridge brigade, a military engineering unit.

The brigade is plagued by nepotism, which fosters the routine victimization of soldiers, the report claimed. The 211th was formed in 2022 and most of its original officers came from the same unit, according to the exposé. They have filled vacancies with family members and personal acquaintances through manipulation of appointments, the newspaper alleged.

“We have wives and husbands, parents and sons, godparents, extended family, lovers, friends, schoolmates, neighbors, and every other relation one could draw on, all serving together,” said an anonymous source interviewed by the outlet.

Pravda has verified almost ten separate families involved with the unit. Colonel lieutenant Valery Pastukh heads the 211th’s staff, while his son, senior lieutenant Vladislav Pastuk, served as a platoon leader. Brigade commander Oleg Poberyuzhnik is Pastukh Jr.’s godfather, the report added.

The newspaper said it had obtained extensive evidence of abuses by Pastukh Jr., including images of harassment and soldiers’ testimonies to military investigators. It shared a photo showing the lieutenant posing next to a ravine, with a man tied to a cross visible below.The person was allegedly being punished for drinking on the job.

The report claimed thatofficers in the 211th would routinely extort money, either as payment for covering up soldiers’ disciplinary violations or in the form of racketeering. The support unit does not see combat, so superiors would threaten troops with transfer to frontline brigades unless they paid up, the report said.

After the article was published, the Ukrainian military leadership pledged to ensure that any officers guilty of crimes are held accountable.

On Monday, Russian President Vladimir Putin accused the “Kiev regime” of perpetrating crimes against Ukrainians, including through forced conscription of troops required to sustain the fight against Russia. The Ukrainian government will likely soon drop the minimum draft age to 18 and send young men “to the slaughter,” he warned.

Sols 4393-4395: Weekend Work at the Base of Texoli Butte

Dec 16, 2024

Curiosity continues to make great progress over the Mount Sharp bedrock and will spend the weekend investigating the northern base of the “Texoli” butte.

The science team back on Earth enjoyed taking in the beautiful views of nearby “Wilkerson” butte and “Gould Mesa” while digging into the workspace in front of us to create a hefty to-do list for our roving geologist on Mars.

The rocks at the rover’s wheels today consisted of dusty, pale-colored bedrock that had a range of textures.

We used the dust removal tool (DRT), MAHLI, and APXS instruments to characterize lighter, smooth bedrock at “Calabasas Peak,” and slightly darker, rougher bedrock at “Triunfo Canyon.”

The ChemCam team used the Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) to analyze the composition of the rougher bedrock at “Chilao” and a vein that cuts through the bedrock at “Ojai,” and Mastcam provided the supporting documentation images of each target.

The Mastcam team assembled a variety of images and mosaics in the workspace and beyond.

Two stereo mosaics documented the network of fractures in the bedrock at “Fern Dell” while a stereo mosaic of “Amir’s Garden” will be used to observe possible deformation in the rocks.

A few single-frame images of troughs in the workspace will be used to investigate active surface processes.

Further in the distance, Mastcam created a stereo mosaic of “Jawbone Canyon” to image potential aeolian ripples, and supported a ChemCam long-distance RMI image of a crater in the drive direction called “Grant Lake.”

Lastly, ChemCam planned a long-distance RMI image to get a closer look at the structures within Gould Mesa.

Curiosity will drive 44 meters (about 144 feet) to the west over the weekend as we continue to close in on the intriguing boxwork structures.

Lastly, the environmental group rounded out the plan with activities including cloud observations, dust-devil monitoring, and surveys of the amount of dust in the atmosphere.

NASA Finalizes Strategy for Sustaining Human Presence in Low Earth Orbit

Dec 16, 2024

As part of the agency’s efforts to enable broader use of space, NASA has released its final goals and objectives for low Earth orbit, defining the long-term approach toward advancing microgravity science, technology, and exploration for the benefit of all.

Developed with input from a wide range of stakeholders, NASA’s Low Earth Orbit Microgravity Strategy will guide the agency toward the next generation of continuous human presence in orbit, enable greater economic growth, and maintain international partnerships.

“As we near the retirement of the International Space Station in 2030, these objectives are a pivotal next step in solidifying U.S. leadership in space,” said NASA Deputy Administrator Pam Melroy.

“Our consultation with industry, academia, and international partners has helped refine a visionary roadmap for our future in low Earth orbit, which will be enabled by a continuous human presence.

Together, we are ensuring that the benefits of exploring space continue to grow – advancing science, innovation, and opportunities for all, while preparing for humanity’s next giant leap of exploring the Moon, Mars and beyond.”

In early 2024, NASA initiated a planning process that included drafting an initial set of goals and objectives for the low Earth orbit microgravity environment and seeking feedback from its workforce, government partners, industry, academia, international space agencies, and the public.

The agency reviewed more than 1,800 comments and hosted two workshops, resulting in essential adjustments to the goals and objectives to better align with its partners.

The final framework includes 13 goals and 44 objectives across seven key areas: commercial low Earth orbit infrastructure, operations, science, research and technology development for exploration, international cooperation, workforce development and science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) engagement, and public engagement.

The agency’s efforts in low Earth orbit are integral to its broader ambitions for deep space exploration.

The microgravity environment in low Earth orbit provides a cost-effective, easily accessible proving ground for technologies and research necessary for human missions to explore the solar system.

With most of the journey to Moon and Mars occurring in microgravity, the objectives give the opportunity to continue vital human research, test future exploration systems, and retain the critical skills needed to operate in the microgravity environment.

“These finalized objectives represent a clear path forward as NASA transitions from the International Space Station to a new era of commercial space stations,” said Robyn Gatens, director of the International Space Station and acting director of commercial spaceflight.

“Low Earth orbit will remain a hub for scientific discovery, technological advancement, and international cooperation, while making strategic investments in a commercial space ecosystem that benefits not just NASA, but the entire space community.”

The low Earth orbit microgravity goals and objectives, combined with significant stakeholder engagement, drive NASA’s need to maintain an unbroken, continuous heartbeat of humans in the commercial low Earth orbit destinations era.

NASA requires long-duration flights to mitigate risk for future trips to the Red Planet. To ensure reliable access to and use of low Earth orbit, a diversity of providers operating on a regular cadence is essential.

The objectives will also guide the development of requirements for future commercial space stations that will support NASA’s missions, while reducing risk for human missions to Mars, preserving operational skills, advancing critical scientific research, and sustaining engagement with international and commercial partners.

“Collaboration and consultation remain a cornerstone of our low Earth orbit strategy,” said John Keefe, director of cross-agency strategy integration at NASA.

“The objectives we’ve established will help NASA craft a work plan that ensures NASA is positioned to meet current and future needs and prioritizes the development of critical capabilities for low Earth orbit.”

NASA Sees Progress on Starlab Commercial Space Station Development

Dec 16, 2024

A NASA-funded commercial space station, Starlab, recently completed four key developmental milestones, marking substantial progress in the station’s design and operational readiness.

The four milestones are part of a NASA Space Act Agreement awarded in 2021 and focused on reviews of the habitat structural test article preliminary design, systems integration, integrated operations, and a habitat structural test plan.

“These milestone achievements are great indicators to reflect Starlab’s commitment to the continued efforts and advancements of their commercial destination,” said Angela Hart, program manager for NASA’s Commercial Low Earth Orbit Development Program.

“As we look forward to the future of low Earth orbit, every successful milestone is one step closer to creating a dynamic and robust commercialized low Earth orbit.”

The commercial space station is designed to launch on a single flight and includes a large habitation and laboratory module with a smaller service module for power and propulsion.

Earlier this year, Starlab Space completed a structural test article preliminary design review, supported by NASA.

The structural test article is an engineering development unit of the station’s habitation module, which is where astronauts will spend most of their time living and working aboard the future commercial destination.

An engineering development unit is a physical model that is used to test and verify the design of a project, such as a space station.

Starlab also recently shared a test plan for the structural test article, which included defining qualification tests of the development unit from welding verifications to proof pressure and static load testing, among others.

During proof pressure tests, a spacecraft component or system is pressurized to a significantly higher than normal operating pressure to verify its structural integrity, and a static load test measures the response of a component or system under an applied load.

In addition, Starlab completed integration operations and systems integration reviews.

These reviews included updates on system and station architecture, segment interfaces, and program goals, as well as a comprehensive look into the program’s requirements.

Starlab also is set to complete a preliminary design review and phase 1 safety review by the end of the year.

This review is meant to demonstrate that the station’s design meets system requirements, including human spaceflight verification, with acceptable risk.

The safety review will summarize the current design and general safety approach for the destination.

NASA is supporting the design and development of multiple commercial space stations, including Starlab, through funded and unfunded agreements.

The current design and development phase will be followed by the procurement of services from one or more companies, where NASA aims to be one of many customers for low Earth orbit destinations.

As i couldn't find anything about Amogy Inc. on qresear.ch:

https://x.com/ShadowofEzra/status/1868775273971232984

A large drone owned by Amogy Inc., a research and product development company, was recently discovered in Brooklyn by the NYPD.

BlackRock is one of the company’s investors.

Amogy, has has attracted significant investments from Amazon's Climate Pledge Fund, AP Ventures, SK Innovation, and Aramco Ventures.

New York Post article about that: https://nypost.com/2024/12/16/us-news/nypd-recovers-massive-drone-found-abandoned-in-brooklyn/

NYPD discovers massive drone amid spate of sightings in tri-state area – but this one can be explained

Police have recovered a massive drone that was apparently abandoned in the Brooklyn Naval Yard.

A photo obtained by The Post shows an NYPD officer holding up the unwieldy aircraft, the body of which appears to measure more than 5 feet in diameter.

Cops responded to an emailed tip alerting them to the presence of the drone, which they found on the sidewalk at Fifth Street between Market Street and Morris Avenue, sources said.

As officers were investigating, a passer-by said he worked in the building that houses the headquarters of drone’s manufacturer — which he identified as Amogy, Inc., a sustainable-energy startup working to use ammonia as a renewable fuel source, including for aerial vehicles.

Amogy CEO Seonghoon Woo later confirmed the drone was the property of his company and said it had been placed on the sidewalk after a company party about a month ago, according to sources.

Woo said the drone was inoperable and had been in its location for more than a month before cops recovered it, sources said.

The NYPD dispatched an Emergency Services Unit truck to disconnect the drone’s nitrogen components to ensure it was safe for transport before bringing it to the 88th precinct for safekeeping.

Reached by email, an Amogy spokesperson told The Post that the drone was used in a demonstration of its clean energy technology three years ago, and had been on display outside company headquarters ever since.

“NYPD took possession of it for a brief period. Amogy cooperated fully with NYPD and the drone has since been returned to the company after NYPD determined the drone was not a threat,” the spokesman said.

Rebecca Weiner, NYPD Deputy Commissioner of counterterrorism and intelligence, told reporters at an unrelated briefing that despite drone mania taking hold in New York and New Jersey over the past month, the perceived surge in sightings may be attributable to the power of suggestion.

“What we’ve seen over the past few days here in the city has actually been quite normal, frankly, in terms of the actual drone activity that we see every day,” she said, noting there are around 2,000 drone flights per week in the Big Apple.

“You have a really strong uptick in reporting but not a strong uptick in actual drone detection, which makes sense — all people are seeing on the news is drone sightings everywhere.”

She said the department had a similar conversation last week after the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, in which threats against corporate CEOs suddenly seemed ubiquitous — but with one key difference.

“There you actually have a real increase in threats, not just an increase in reporting,” she said.

NASA Welcomes Thailand as Newest Artemis Accords Signatory

Dec 16, 2024

Following a signing ceremony Monday in Thailand’s capital city, Bangkok, NASA congratulates Thailand as the 51st nation to commit to the safe and responsible exploration of space that benefits humanity.

“Thailand’s commitment to the Artemis Accords will enhance the country’s engagement with NASA and the international community,” said NASA Administrator Bill Nelson.

“By signing the accords, Thailand builds upon an important foundation and shows great leadership for the open, responsible and peaceful exploration of space.”

Pakorn Apaphant, the executive director of Thailand’s Geo-Informatics and Space Technology Development Agency (GISTDA) signed the Artemis Accords on behalf of Thailand.

Thailand’s Minister of Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation Supamas Isarabhakdi and U.S. Ambassador to Thailand Robert Godec also participated in the ceremony.

Nelson contributed the final remarks in a pre-recorded video message.

“Thailand will enter the golden age of space exploration in full force,” said Apaphant of the country’s signing.

In 2020, the United States, led by NASA and the U.S. Department of State, and seven other initial signatory nations established the Artemis Accords, a set of principles promoting the beneficial use of space for humanity.

The Artemis Accords are grounded in the Outer Space Treaty and other agreements including the Registration Convention, the Rescue and Return Agreement, as well as best practices and norms of responsible behavior that NASA and its partners have supported, including the public release of scientific data.

On Dec. 11, NASA celebrated 50 countries signing the Artemis Accords at NASA Headquarters with the signing of Austria. More countries are expected to sign in the weeks and months ahead.

UK online censorship laws come into force

Britain could soon fine social media giants up to 10% of their annual earnings for failing to remove illegal content

Britain’s newest online censorship law came into force on Monday, as the country’s telecoms regulator published a list of content that social media platforms must remove to avoid multi-million-pound fines.

Ofcom, the British government’s media and telecommunications watchdog, published a set of guidelines thatplatforms like Meta, Google, and TikTok must comply with by March or risk punishmentunder the Online Safety Act, which was passed in 2023.

The guidelines list a range of 130 illegal acts that these platforms must forbid and prevent, including incitement to terrorism, human trafficking, and the sharing of child sexual abuse material.

Also prohibited is the “stirring up of racial hatred”or “hatred on the basis of religion or sexual orientation,” which although ill-defined are already illegal under British law.

Some offenses are “complex,” Ofcom wrote. “They may be more about a series of interactions between users, or may involve behavior that takes place partly offline, or may involve thinking about the nature, identity or age of one or more of the users concerned.”

An early draft of the Online Safety Act included a clause banning certain “legal but harmful”content. However, this passage was pulled from the bill last year after then Business and Trade Minister Kemi Badenoch complained that it amounted to “legislating for hurt feelings.”

Nevertheless, Prime Minister Keir Starmer reportedly considered reinserting the controversial clause after a wave of anti-immigration and anti-Islam rioting swept the UK in August, but ultimately decided not to, according to a spokesperson from his office.

Companies who fail to comply with Ofcom’s new rules may be fined up to 10% of their global annual revenue, to a maximum of £18 million ($22.8 million). For repeat offenders, individual managers could face jail time, while Ofcom could seek a court order to block access to a platform in the UK.

According to Ofcom, therules will apply to more than 100,000 companies from around the world, from the largest social media platforms to “very small” providers of entertainment, dating, gambling, and other online services.

NASA Names New Leader of STEM Engagement

Dec 16, 2024

NASA Administrator Bill Nelson announced Monday Elaine P. Ho will serve as the next associate administrator of NASA’s Office of STEM Engagement (OSTEM), where she will lead the agency’s efforts to inspire Artemis Generation students and educators in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).

The role, based out of the agency’s headquarters in Washington, is effective immediately.

Ho also will remain the associate administrator for the agency’s Office of Diversity and Equal Opportunity while a replacement is sought.

She will succeed Mike Kincaid, who retired from the agency in November after 37 years with NASA.

Kris Brown, who has been serving as acting associate administrator for OSTEM, will return to her position as the office’s deputy associate administrator for strategy and integration.

“At NASA, we know STEM education is critical for building a strong and competent future workforce,” said Nelson.

“Under Elaine’s leadership, we will continue to empower students, educators, and communities to reach for the stars and tackle the challenges of tomorrow.”

In her role as associate administrator for NASA’s Office of Diversity and Equal Opportunity, she played an instrumental part in fostering a NASA culture that values the unique backgrounds of our workforce to bolster innovation and drive mission success.

Prior to that role, she served as NASA’s deputy associate administrator for OSTEM, responsible for leading and managing a wide-ranging portfolio of projects and initiatives that benefit students, universities, and educational institutions across the country.

Before joining NASA, Ho held several roles at the White House, including senior policy advisor for the Let Girls Learn initiative in the Office of the First Lady and chief of staff of the U.S. Digital Service.

In 2021, she returned to the White House on a year-long detail, serving as deputy chief of staff for workforce in the Office of Science and Technology Policy and director of Space STEM Policy for the Vice President’s National Space Council.

Prior to her federal service career, Ho was a practicing attorney, specializing in employment law.

She also served four years of active duty as a criminal prosecutor in the U.S. Air Force and continues her service as a colonel in the Air Force Reserves.

Ho holds a civil engineering degree from Duke University and a Juris Doctor from the University of Florida.

Megyn Kelly exclusive where she reveals comments from Trump's lawyers as to why they think ABC and George Stephanopoulos settled for 15 million:

Megyn Kelly: "Our Producer spoke with Trump's attorney, Alejandro Brito. And here is what he said.Our question was why did ABC decide to settle?

The long and short of it? Is the nature of the claims that were brought and the fact that they were verifiable from a standpoint as factually untrue from George Stephanopoulos.

Trump's legal team had separate video clips of George Stephanopoulos on ABC that showed Stephanopoulos knew that Trump had not been found liable for rape."

"Was there something this is us in discovery that scared ABC into settling."

"Answer the possibility of something coming out in discovery may have had led to the settlement.

Trump legal team had scheduled to take the deposition of ABC and ABC Rep and George Stephanopoulos. The lawyer, suspects ABC did not want it to happen.

Quote, It wasn't something ABC learned that caused them to settle, but rather something Trump's team may learn.

Trump team was waiting on ABC and Stephanopoulos to respond to discovery demands. He said At the time of the settlement,ABC had only produced one piece of paper and, quote, very interesting and not provided any other documentation.

And he believes fear of what Trump could learn about ABC and Stephanopoulos and document exchange may have played a role in the settlement."

ABC would rather pay 15 million dollars than allow Trump and the public to discover how corrupt they are.

Florida Democratic Rep. Moskowitz a top contender to lead FEMA for Trump

By Steve Contorno and Kristen Holmes, CNN

December 16, 2024

Florida Rep. Jared Moskowitz, a Democrat, is a top contender to lead the Federal Emergency Management Agency in Donald Trump’s administration, two people with knowledge of the president-elect’s consideration told CNN.

Another person close to the Trump transition team confirmed Moskowitz is in the mix.

It was not immediately clear if Moskowitz and Trump had met yet to discuss the role, but several people described the congressman as a strong candidate to get the post. If appointed, he would be the highest-ranking Democrat in the Trump administration.

Moskowitz did not immediately respond to a voicemail.

Since Trump won in November, Moskowitz — first elected in 2022 — has taken a notably friendlier approach to the incoming administration than some of his Democratic colleagues. He was quick to offer praise on social media when Trump tapped another Florida native, Susie Wiles, as chief of staff. Moskowitz has a close relationship with Wiles from their time working in Florida politics, a source familiar with the dynamic told CNN.

He is also the first Democrat to join the recently created Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) caucus in Congress, a group formed around billionaire Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy’s mandate from Trump to cut government spending and regulations.

Moskowitz was recently elected to serve a second term in the US House, where he represents Broward County. Last year, Moskowitz introduced legislation to make FEMA a Cabinet-level post that reports directly to the president.

It would not be the first time Moskowitz served in a Republican administration in a similar capacity. Under Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, Moskowitz spent two years as the director of Emergency Management, leading the state recovery for Hurricane Michael, a Category 5 storm that tore through the Panhandle in 2018, as well as the state’s Covid-19 response.

In the private sector,Moskowitz previously worked as the general counsel and vice president of business development for AshBritt Environmental, a disaster response contractor.

Jeffrey Sachs Outlines Current Geopolitical Events – President Trump is Already Working on Optimal Solutions

December 17, 2024 | Sundance |

Interesting discussion between Tucker Carlson and Jeffrey Sachs on the current state of geopolitical fluctuations and seemingly chaotic changes.

Mr. Sachs points to Israel and AIPAC as the originating control mechanism for U.S. foreign policy. Here I must insert my prior metaphor for the U.S State Dept and the CIA [The DC Restuarant]. According to Sachs much of the activity from within the State Dept is in alignment with the objectives of those who dine in the kitchen.

I do not necessarily disagree….However, once you understand this dynamic; I mean really understand the complexity of the dynamicand how it represents a challenge to anyone who would seek to change policy direction;then you can find context for how President Donald Trump is organizing his foreign policy mission.

President Trump is circumventing the control mechanisms of the U.S. State Department –SEE HERE– And with that context, things take on an entire new perspective about the issues Sachs is describing.

While he accurately defines the problem, I’m not sure Sachs is seeing what President Trump is doing to cut the gordian knot {I’ll reexplain below}.

DARPA-funded Research May Help Future Space Explorers Eat Food Made From Asteroids

December 17, 2024

Food made from asteroids may help future astronauts live in space for years without supplies from Earth, according to research from Western University’s Institute for Earth and Space Exploration.

With help from a DARPA-funded process that uses bacteria to turn plastic waste into food, Western University (WU) researchers say the process could theoretically support hundreds or even thousands of astronauts for a year.

The researchers note that the process has challenges, including the sheer volume of asteroid material needed to generate enough edible biomass.

However, they believe their study shows that making food from space rocks is a potentially viable solution to feeding astronauts on deep space missions or colonists living on Mars.

“What if humanity could acquire the raw materials to make food in space?” the study authors write.

“This article investigates ways to do just that using new techniques developed to recycle plastic waste into food on Earth and extrapolating these techniques to the theoretical application of converting asteroidal material into food.”

Food Made From Asteroids Contains Valuable Nutritional Profile

In a series of experiments, the WU research team fed organic material similar to material found on asteroids to a strain of bacteria designed to use it for food.

As expected, the bacteria consumed the material, growing into a significant biomass.

According to the study’s lead researcher, Joshua Pierce, the team’s newly grown biomass had the texture and appearance of a caramel milkshake.

After harvesting the biomass, the team sent it to Eurofins Food Chemistry Testing Madison, Inc., for a nutritional analysis.

The results showed that the organic, edible biomass contained roughly 45% carbohydrates, 35% of which were dietary fiber, 15% fat, 32% protein, 7% ash, and 1% moisture.

Although not a perfectly balanced ratio, humans eating the 2,500 calories per day used in NASA calculations could survive on this nutritional profile.

The study authors point out that if humans want to explore the depths of the solar system and beyond, “it will be necessary to become less reliant on the resupply tether to Earth.”

For example, they explain that sending enough food to Mars for six astronauts on a one-year mission will weigh around 12 tons “without packaging.”

For colonists looking to set up a permanent settlement on Mars or someplace else in the solar system, the need for food independence from Earth only increases.

Since humans need variety in their diet, the team explored altering the biomass to create more palatable alternatives.

One test resulted in a yogurt-like substance that could be mixed with flavorings or seasonings. Attempts to dry out the biomass resulted in a nutrient-dense powder that could be used in various culinary applications.

Bennu-Sized Asteroid Could Feed 17,000 Astronauts for a Year

Although the team’s lab results were promising, the researchers say they were forced to use a simulated asteroid instead of a real one.

They made some overtures to space rock owners to see if they could use them to make food out of asteroids.

However, since the process destroys the asteroid, Pearce said, “The people that collect rocks were not happy when we made these proposals.”

Fortunately, Pearce says that the hydrocarbons and other organic molecules found in asteroids “matches up pretty reasonably” with the products we already know the bacteria used in the experiments can eat.

The team says a wide range of hydrocarbons and other organic compounds found in asteroids could affect the amount available for the bacteria to convert to edible biomass.

In this study, the team looked at two forms of organic material found in asteroids, Bennu and the Murchison meteorite.

The most readily available compounds were aliphatic hydrocarbons, setting a mathematical “floor” for the amount of food made of asteroids a rock like Murchison could generate.

The second and most prevalent carbon molecule found in these types of asteroids is solvent-insoluble organic matter (IOM).

In theory, the researchers say that the combination of aliphatic compounds and IONs represents “the maximum amount of organic matter that could theoretically be attributed to food production.”

After doing some calculations, the team found a wide range of food production capabilities depending on how much carbon material in the asteroids can be accessed “assuming NASA’s standard diet of 2500 calories per day is maintained.”

When only the aliphatic hydrocarbons can be converted, the team found that an asteroid the size of Bennu could support around 600 astronauts for one year.

However, if the process could convert all of the carbon, a Bennu-sized space rock could support around 17,000 astronauts over that same amount of time.

“The average results for the minimum scenario (only aliphatic hydrocarbons are converted into biomass) is over 631 astronaut life years, and the average results for the maximum scenario (all IOM are converted into biomass) is over 17 000 astronaut life years,” the study authors write.

A Path For Human Space Exploration

In the study’s conclusion, the authors highlight several challenges to creating food made from asteroids.

For example, Pearce said that future space explorers would need a “super machine” designed to break down the asteroid rock and manage the growth of the bacteria efficiently.

Scaling the process is also a significant barrier; smaller missions may manage this better than larger ones.

However, large, permanent settlements like those planned for the Moon and Mars would require industrial-scale facilities to produce enough food made from asteroids to support thousands of humans without resupply missions from Earth.

“The values obtained for the amount of asteroid mass that need to be processed to provide food for a single astronaut are large, but if human exploration of the solar system is to be done, it provides a potential path to doing so,” the study authors write.

“Based on the results of this study, this approach appears promising but there are substantial areas of future work.”

Shadow of Ezra

@ShadowofEzra 2h

Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov, a key figure in uncovering controversial bioweapons programs, has been k*lled in a Moscow explosion triggered by an explosive device.

Kirillov gained international attention for investigating alleged U.S.-backed biolabs in Ukraine, claiming they were researching methods to spark a pandemic and frame Russia.

He publicly denounced COVID-19 as a man-made virus created by the U.S. government and exposed the involvement of vaccine giants Pfizer and Moderna in U.S. military and biological operations in Ukraine.

He went further and revealed that Hunter Biden’s Rosemont Seneca Investment Fund and the Soros Foundation were financing Ukrainian biolaboratories.

The whole article by Sundance is worth reading along with the Tucker Sachs video

2/3

Only a small number of Americans understand the relationship between the U.S. State Dept (DoS) and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). However, as more people understand how these two agencies operate, then people have a much more accurate context for how both agencies are viewed by the rest of the world.

Almost every deployed CIA operative has a cover profile within the State Dept. The foreign service missions of the DoS and CIA are so enmeshed there is literally no way to separate the functions of their agencies. [Go back to the Benghazi Attack for an operational reference] CIA/DoS have to be viewed through the prism of connection.

To better understand this concept, I use the following metaphor:

The U.S State Dept and CIA operation is like a restaurant. The Dept of State is the front of the restaurant, with the Secretary as the Maitre D’.The CIA is the back of the restaurant, the kitchen. The Director is the Chef. The consulates are the wait staff. USAID are the food runners. The Dept of Defense are the bus boys.

The tables and chairs are assigned by the Maitre D’ according to their value. Countries viewed as more important get the best tables. The menus offered to each nation are completely different. Israel has a table in the kitchen. To get the best experience, tips (bribes) are required for everyone, from the parking valets outside, to the sommelier, to the server. Currently, Ukraine is the biggest tipper.

On the oversight aspect the Senate Foreign Relations Committee is the control mechanism to approve/install the Secretary of State. The Senate Select Committee on Intelligence is the control mechanism to approve/install the CIA Director. Everything therein and thereafter is a system of pretending it is something else.

The Dept of State (DoS) is so large there’s no way of addressing the inherent institutional corruption. The Secretary of State can control a small portion of DoS operations, but that’s usually only the geopolitical stuff we see discussed on television, in print media or in press conferences. The business functions of the DoS take place within a network of carefully guarded silos.

Perhaps, the first step in advancing an American-First policy, is to just stop the various administrative offices within the Dept of State from doing anything, literally anything. The challenge within DoS is massive, complex and complicated. I’m genuinely not sure what the Executive Branch mechanism is to do it, ==but we need to close the restaurant for a few months and do a deep cleaning.

On the back of the operation is the kitchen, the CIA.

It is a popular DC sentiment to say the CIA Director is the most powerful person within the intelligence apparatus. As the viewpoint is shared, it is the established secrecy within the mandate of the institution that gives them power.

Essentially, the CIA was created to be a place where dark arts (lying, spying, manipulation, tradecraft)would be approved and used at the discretion of the institutional leadership. As a consequence, there is no check on the CIA operational agenda. They are permitted by function and mandate, to lie to everyone about what they are doing; this includes the Office of the President.

Because they are essentially an unchecked intelligence silo within a government that has allowed the institution to hold unilateral power and self-policing,the CIA has a power within the apparatus unlike any other member.Inside the business model of foreign policy as a restaurant, the CIA are in control of the kitchen.

3/3

Together the DoS/CIA operate a shadow government, looking out for their best interest while generating power through large multinational institutions (corporations), spy agencies (5-eyes), banks, non-governmental agencies (NGAs) and various influence operations.

♦ The activity of the CIA/DoS construct takes place regardless of who is president. Any hope of busting up this corrupt system is going to take a lot of strategic pounding while confronting the supportive element within the Senate at the same time. [Note this is why repealing the 17th amendment would make the work infinitely easier – and also why the 17th amendment was created by banking interests.]

When you stand back and look at the challenge of confronting the DoS and CIA,you can easily see why the Emissary was the first most important person I noted. If you are going to confront the domestic corruption within the DoS, you need the Emissary as a contact for specific foreign government leaders.

Under my sketch, the foreign policy of the USA shifts away from Foggy Bottom [Rubio] and directly back to the White House [Trump].This provides space to destroy the system through domestic confrontation.

Marco Rubioas Secretary of State would normally to have to push intensely and forcefully to support the goals of President Trump while simultaneously trying to shift control away from the kitchen diners. Literally impossible in one four-year term; so, what is the optimal solution?

Enter President Trump, building the parallel system.A new foreign policy construct that does not need support from the State Dept., Trump works around the issue.

With Lt General Keith Kellogg special envoy to Ukraine and Russia, and with the appointment of Steven C. Witkoff to be Special Envoy to the Middle East,President Trump has essentially created a construct that works around the insufferable issues with a globalist State Department.

Rubio doesn’t have Ukraine/Russia in his portfolio, nor does he have diplomatic or policy control over the Middle East.=President Trump has neutered the State Department, and the cherry on the proverbial cake is Ric Grenell.

The CIA is replaced with a Presidential Intelligence Advisory Board. The Dept of State is replaced as above. Both operate as parallel systems.

We should all give him major credit.President Trump is actually doing it.

https://theconservativetreehouse.com/

And Nunes and Grenell is on that council.So this is why one of the biggest DS'ers Marco Rubio has been removed from Trump's plans. This is Great News

China’s hypersonic drone near-space launch test revealed on video for the first time

8:00pm, 17 Dec 2024

A new video has revealed a remarkable first in hypersonic flight – an unmanned Chinese MD series aircraft being launched in near space from a high-altitude balloon, reaching a speed of Mach 7 before landing safely to be reused later.

The full video, released by the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), showcases the trials of the MD series and the drone developers behind the aircraft.

The team from the Institute of Mechanics (IMECH) at CAS, known as the “Qian Xuesen Young Scientist Task Force”, were the same specialists who achieved the first horizontal landing of the hypersonic drone in 2020.

Hypersonic flight is a field of intense global strategic competition in advanced aerospace technology. The MD-22 – the latest known model in the series – was first unveiled at the 2022 Zhuhai air show.

The aircraft boasts a maximum range of 8,000km (4,971 miles) and can carry payloads of up to 600kg (1,323 pounds), delivering substantial strategic capabilities.

The concept of near-space hypersonic flight was first proposed by Qian Xuesen, the founding father of China’s space programme.

He envisioned aircraft that could operate in the range between conventional aircraft and satellites, requiring mid-air launches for unparalleled flexibility.

Flight trials of the MD series – known as a “wide-range vehicle” – have shown efficient performance at both high and low velocities, the team said.

“We aim for the best. While our ideas are highly forward-thinking, they’re achievable in theory,” IMECH engineer Li Wenhao said in the video.

The gruelling development process has included more than 30 design refinements to optimise models and improve testing.

In 2020, an initial test failed due to a parachute deploying too soon. In May 2021, a second attempt was abandoned because of bad weather in the Gobi Desert.

“You can run 100 ground tests, but if there’s one unresolved issue, it will inevitably emerge during flight,” said Zhang Chen’an, one of the team members featured in the video.

After refining theoretical models and upgrading on-site test protocols, the team’s third flight test attempt in November 2021 was successful, and included the recovery of the aircraft, the MD-21 prototype.

“The flight path is highly complex – diving first, then ascending and returning, which makes this generation of aircraft even more challenging than its predecessors,” Li said in the video.

Formed in 2018, the task force is made up of multidisciplinary experts, all in their 20s and 30s, who work next to the same workspace where Qian Xuesen established IMECH decades ago and laid the foundation for China’s aerospace research.

The team has successfully conducted nine flight tests with five different experimental models.

The reusable aircraft have achieved autonomous horizontal landings without propulsion, significantly expanding the operational boundaries of reusable aerospace vehicles.

“We are currently developing a new generation of aircraft to make wide-range hypersonic vehicles even faster and more efficient,” said Liu Wen, an associate professor with IMECH.

China’s investments in innovative research are intended to lay the groundwork for transformative advancements in science and technology.

Since 2021, CAS has formed 188 task forces named after pioneering scientists like Qian Xuesen.

The teams aim to address key scientific challenges and have achieved significant breakthroughs in basic science and technology

For example, the “Li Siguang Tibetan Plateau Paleo-Biology Task Force” revealed the evolution of basins in the Northern Qiangtang Block and found major coal deposits in upper Permian strata. Similarly, the “Wang Dezhao Deep Blue Task Force” developed China’s first unmanned underwater vehicle with countermeasure capabilities.

Submarines for space exploration

17/12/2024

Submarines are emerging as a unique research platform to study human adaption to extreme environments – from ocean depths to outer space.

ESA, the Portuguese Space Agency and the Portuguese Navy are now using these vessels of underwater exploration to recreate isolation and confinement challenges in space.

The first crew of the SubSea project returned to shore yesterday after completing a 60-day underwater expedition.

A scientific team from universities in Germany, Italy and Portugal is studying how stress, mood and crew dynamics evolve among 25 volunteers confined in cramped quarters, much like astronauts on long space missions.

From deep seas to outer space

Submarines replicate the isolation, confinement and operational challenges of space missions, making them ideal for studying how these conditions affect crew members and for developing strategies to help them cope.

Underwater expeditions serve as high-fidelity analogues for testing new techniques and for gathering data to improve future human spaceflight missions.

To understand how body and mind adapt throughout the mission, scientists used questionnaires and collected hair and saliva samples.

The results will help them track stress markers like cortisol, as well as monitor changes in the crew’s immune health.

Human resilience

ESA and its international partners have been using the International Space Station for more than two decades to conduct hundreds of experiments, including the study of the effects of spaceflight on human health.

On the Space Station, astronauts are exposed to microgravity and space radiation while living and working in a confined environment.

ESA astronaut Andreas Mogensen, who recently spent six months orbiting Earth with the Huginn mission, believes that missions like SubSea help them prepare for the many physiological and psychological challenges of space.

“SubSea is an essential initiative to understand human resilience in extreme environments," says Andreas.

“Research into life and work in confined environments, whether under the sea, in space or in remote locations on Earth provide invaluable insights into how humans adapt physically and mentally to isolation and stress,” he adds.

“These efforts deepen our understanding of extreme environments and play a crucial role in preparing the global space community for the challenges of future missions to the Moon, Mars, and beyond,” says Daniel Neuenschwander, ESA’s Director of Human and Robotic Exploration.

Integrating knowledge from submarine and astronaut research communities could drive innovation in healthcare for polar stations, military deployments, hiking expeditions, populations living in prolonged darkness, and even mining operations.

Findings could address clinical disorders such as seasonal affective disorder, depression, and sleep disturbances.

This SubSea mission marks the initial phase of a project designed to expand its research scope in subsequent stages.

Portuguese expertise

“SubSea aligns perfectly with Portugal’s growing focus on analogue activities and space medicine,” states Ricardo Conde, president of the Portuguese Space Agency.

Portugal has several terrestrial analogue sites, such as the Capelinhos Volcano and Barreiro da Faneca in the Azores and the Selvagens Islands in Madeira. These locations resemble conditions found on celestial bodies like the Moon and Mars.

By leveraging its unique terrestrial and marine resources, Portugal is positioning itself as an essential hub for research, innovation, and training to support future space missions.

🚨#BREAKING: Joe Biden has just commuted the 18 year sentence of a #WNC man charged with a $23 million money-laundering scheme in 2013.

The scheme led to the financial collapse of BOTH the Bank of Asheville and Pisgah Community Bank…

Just days after ABC News settled a massive defamation lawsuit for lying about the then-former president, President-elect Donald Trump said Monday he would be suing other members of the corrupt media. The message is clear — if the propaganda press cannot stop peddling lies, then they will be held accountable.

While holding an unscripted press conference Monday at Mar-a-Lago (that perhaps lasted longer than all the unscripted press conferences President Joe Biden has done in four years), Trump went after CBS News for the deceptive editing of the “60 Minutes” interview with Vice President Kamala Harris.

“We’re filing one on ’60 Minutes’ where they took Kamala’s answer, which was a crazy answer, a horrible answer, and they took the whole answer out, and they replaced it with something else she said later on …” Trump said.

It is unclear whether Trump is referring to a new suit or a suit that was previously filed in November against the network. The November suit was filed in the U.S. District Court in the Northern District of Texas alleging that the deceptively edited video amounted to “unlawful acts of election and voter interference” and intended to “mislead the public and attempt to tip the scales” of the election, according to CNN.

Trump also said Monday he would be filing a suit against former pollster Ann Selzer, who released a poll days before the election showing Trump losing deep red Iowa to Vice President Kamala Harris by three percentage points. Trump alleges the poll was designed to discourage Republican turnout and amounted to election interference (Trump ultimately won the state by nearly 14 percentage points). NBC News reported Tuesday that a suit was filed in Polk County, Iowa, seeking “accountability for brazen election interference.” According to the report, Trump “is making the claim under the Iowa Consumer Fraud Act, which prohibits deceptive advertising.”

His comments come on the heels of ABC News agreeing to fork over $15 million to Trump’s presidential library in order to “bail out big-mouth anchor George Stephanopoulos for his false assertions that Trump had been found liable for raping writer E. Jean Carroll,” The Federalist’s Matt Kittle wrote.

And perhaps Trump’s pursuit of truth in journalism is already having the intended effect. Axios’ senior counsel recently warned their journalists to do their job properly — aka do not defame someone. According to Semafor, Axios’ senior counsel warned staff the Trump administration “will ramp up lawsuits against news organizations for defamation.”

CNN’s Jim Acosta, however, said the “industry” has to “stand firm” because “you can’t have the news industry worrying about this sort of stuff when they’re simply just doing their jobs.”

Watch SpaceX Starship test fire engines ahead of flight 7 launch

December 16, 2024

Things are getting hot for SpaceX's next Starship launch.

SpaceX fired up its next Starship spacecraft during an engine test over the weekend, ahead of the company's 7th orbital test flight of the gargantuan megarocket.

SpaceX ignited Starship's Raptor engines for approximately 10 seconds on Sunday, Dec. 15, as a part of a series of checkouts to ensure the vehicle is healthy before being transported to the launchpad where it will be integrated with its first stage Super Heavy booster.

Its next launch, Integrated Flight Test-7 (IFT-7), is expected around Jan. 11, based on communications between NASA and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), which has yet to issue a launch license for the upcoming test.

Once mated, the Super Heavy/Starship stack towers a staggering 400 feet (122 meters) tall, with the Starship upper stage alone standing taller than the Statue of Liberty.

The engine static fire occurred yesterday, with SpaceX posting a photo and video of the test to the company's social media with the simple caption, "Static fire of Flight 7 Starship."

Once past its testing and development stage, Starship will become the first fully reusable rocket in history, with both the Super Heavy booster and Starship upper stage designed for return and fast refurbishment back at SpaceX's Starbase launch and test facility in Texas.

SpaceX's current workhorse launch vehicle, the Falcon 9, features reusable first stage boosters and fairing halves, but the rocket's second stage must be expended after each mission.

Recovery at Starbase involves a pair of "chopstick arms" attached to the rocket's launch tower, which are designed to catch each stage mid-air as they descend.

SpaceX's first attempt at the novel landing technology came during IFT-5, and resulted in a complete success.

As planned, Starship's Super Heavy booster fired its engines back toward Starbase, and came to rest just above the ground after a picture-perfect embrace by the launch tower's chopstick arms.

Unfortunately, SpaceX's Super Heavy recovery during IFT-6 was forced into an abort procedure during its journey back to the pad, failing to meet mission criteria for the booster's safe return. Instead, the IFT-6 Super Heavy was directed for a splashdown in the Gulf of Mexico.

SpaceX has yet to attempt to recover a Starship upper stage back at the launch pad, but the vehicle has progressively checked off milestones on each of its subsequent flights, softly splashing down in the Indian Ocean off the northwestern coast of Australia about 65 minutes after its last liftoff.

Starship managed a total of four test flights in 2024 — double the number of launches for the vehicle in 2023. For 2025, SpaceX is hoping to ramp that number up all the way to 25.

Starship's road to operational missions is one being closely followed by NASA, who has contracted the vehicle to land astronauts on the moon during the Artemis 3 mission, which is expected to launch sometime in 2027.

Still, with only two years between then and now, Starship has a long way to go toward a crewed lunar landing.

As he prepares to leave leadership, McConnell challenges Trump on foreign policy

By MARY CLARE JALONICK December 16, 20240

(The dictator sticks his neck into Trump’s formal decisions; and warns him what he’ll do.WARMONGER FOREVER)

WASHINGTON (AP) — Senate Republican Leader MitchMcConnell is challenging President-elect Donald Trump to reject the isolationist voiceswithin their party and build his foreign policy around military strength, arguing thatif the U.S. retreats from global engagement, “its enemies will be only too happy to fill the void.”

In an essay published Monday in Foreign Affairs,McConnell took the rare step of warning Trump directlyas he plans to step down from his post in the coming weeks. The Kentucky Republican plans to stay in the Senate and has made clear thathis top priority will be pushing for the United States to maintain and improve its global strength.

“The time to restore American hard power is now,”McConnell wrote, arguing that military readiness should override “both left-wing faith in hollow internationalism and right-wing flirtation with isolation and decline.”

McConnell has long pushed back against the growing isolationist wing in his party, making an aggressive, ultimately successful push this year to pass aid to Ukraine when many in his party in Congress were openly opposed to it.

But the essay is his most direct warning yet to Trump and his allies and advisers, including Vice President-elect JD Vance, an Ohio senator who was one of the loudest voices in opposition to the Ukraine aid.

Trump has railed against “forever wars” since before his first term in office and long spoken favorably of Russian President Vladimir Putin. He made clear during his campaign that he would move to end the war in Ukraine quickly and has called on Putin to reach an immediate ceasefire with Ukraine.

He has also said he would be open to reducing military aid to Ukraine and pulling the United States out of NATO.

McConnell wrote that Trump “deserves credit” for reversing some Obama-era limitations on assistance to Ukraine in his first term and authorizing a transfer of lethal weapons to Kyiv. But he writes that the former and future president “sometimes undermined these tough policies through his words and deeds,” including his relationship with Putin.

“He courted Putin, he treated allies and alliance commitments erratically and sometimes with hostility, and in 2019 he withheld $400 million in security assistance to Ukraine,” McConnell wrote. “These public episodes raised doubts about whether the United States was committed to standing up to Russian aggression, even when it actually did so.”

Trump should “commit to a significant and sustained increase in defense spending,” McConnell recommended, as well as investments in the defense industry and access to new military capabilities.

McConnell’s essay comes after years of an intensely complicated relationship with Trump, aligning with him when it served his purposes in the Senate while criticizing him behind his back and, to a lesser extent, in public. He did not speak to Trump for more than three years after the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol by Trump’s supporters, but endorsed him earlier this year after it became clear that he would be the GOP presidential nominee.

The essay also comes as there is speculation about McConnell’s new role as a rank-and-file member, whether he will oppose some of Trump’s nominees and otherwise challenge him publicly now that he is freed from the responsibilities of leadership.

However that may play out, McConnell has made clear that “he wants to cement his legacy” by pushing the party to embrace the U.S. role as a global leader.

He writes that Trump will “no doubt hear from some that he should prioritize a single theater and downgrade U.S. interests and commitments elsewhere,” including by elevating Asia at the expense of interests in Europe and the Middle East. But if “the United States continues to retreat, its enemies will be only too happy to fill the void.”

“A Russian victory would not only damage the United States’ interest in European security and increase U.S. military requirements in Europe; it would also compound the threats from China, Iran, and North Korea,” McConnell writes.

SpaceX’s 31st Dragon cargo capsule departs ISS to head home to Earth

December 16, 2024

SpaceX's 31st robotic cargo mission is headed back to Earth.

SpaceX's Dragon cargo capsule undocked from the International Space Station (ISS) on schedule today (Dec. 16) at 11:05 a.m. EST (1605 GMT) today (Dec. 16).

The spacecraft will begin a series of deorbit burns to complete the company's 31st commercial resupply services mission (CRS-31) for NASA, splashing down of the coast of Florida tomorrow (Dec. 17).

The agency won't webcast the splashdown but will provide updates via its ISS blog.

CRS-31 is returning to Earth with thousands of pounds of equipment and experiment specimens from ongoing microgravity research aboard the space station.

Dragon is currently the only ISS cargo spacecraft capable of returning equipment and experiments safely to Earth.

The other two operational freighters — Northrop Grumman's Cygnus spacecraft and Russia's Progress capsule — face a fiery atmospheric incineration, burning up during reentry, along with whatever waste from the space station is packed aboard them.

The CRS-31 Dragon launched to the ISS from NASA's Kennedy Space Center (KSC) in Florida on Nov. 4, riding a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket to low Earth orbit.

The spacecraft rendezvoused with the orbital laboratory a day later, delivering about 6,000 pounds (2,700 kilograms) of science and supplies for the Expedition 71 astronauts aboard.

Among those astronauts are NASA's Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, who originally launched to the station on the first crewed flight of Boeing's Starliner spacecraft in June.

Complications with Starliner turned an eight-day mission into an eight-month stint aboard the ISS for the two astronauts.

NASA eventually decided to return Starliner to Earth uncrewed; Wilmore and Williams will come home in February on SpaceX's Crew-9 mission, which arrived at the station in September.

At the time of Starliner's launch, the ISS was in need of a pump replacement for its urine processing system, which Wilmore and Williams were tasked with delivering.

To make room aboard the spacecraft, however, the two astronauts were forced to leave their own luggage behind, including their change of clothes and other personal items.

Two other cargo missions preceded CRS-31 after Wilmore and Williams' arrival — a Cygnus and a Progress mission, which were able to relieve the astronauts of their space station hand-me-downs and supply them their own shirts and toothbrushes.

However, every cargo mission brings welcome goods to the station's entire crew, with a crowd-favorite supply of fresh fruits and vegetables.

Among the cargo CRS-31 delivered to the ISS last month were fresh food, research equipment, maintenance supplies and personal items to help sustain the orbiting astronauts.

NASA will be able to retrieve the CRS-31 Dragon spacecraft relatively quickly after splashdown tomorrow, reaping the benefits of any experiments in need of quick attending following atmospheric reentry.

These experiments will be transported to NASA's Systems Processing Facility at KSC, where scientists are able to continue research in the post-microgravity environment.

Today's undocking was originally supposed to occur on Dec. 6, but bad weather in the splashdown zone pushed it back repeatedly.

US military flies American released from Syrian prison to Jordan, officials sayLOLITA C. BALDOR and AAMER MADHANI December 13, 2024

WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. military has transported out of Syria an American who had disappeared seven months ago into former President Bashar Assad’s notorious prison system and was among the thousands released this week by rebels, U.S. officials said Friday.

Travis Timmerman, 29, was flown to Jordan on a U.S. military helicopter, according to two U.S. officials who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing operation.

It’s unclear where Timmerman may go next.He thanked his rescuers for freeing him but has told American officials that he would like to stay in the region(CIA?), according to another person familiar with the matter who was not authorized to comment publicly. Timmerman was detained after he crossed into Syria while on a Christian pilgrimage from a mountain along the eastern Lebanese town of Zahle in June.

He told The Associated Press in an interview earlier Friday thathe was not ill-treated while in Palestine Branch, a notorious detention facility operated by Syrian intelligence. In his prison cell, Timmerman said, he had a mattress, a plastic drinking container and two others for waste. He said the Friday calls to prayers helped keep track of days.

Timmerman said he was released Monday morning alongside a young Syrian man and 70 female prisoners, some of whom had their children with them, after rebels seized control of Damascus and forced Assad from power in a dramatic upheaval.

He said he was freed by “the liberators who came into the prison and knocked the door down (of his cell) with a hammer.”He had been held separately from Syrian and other Arab prisoners and said he didn’t know of any other Americans held in the facility.

Timmerman is from Urbana, Missouri, about 50 miles (80 kilometers) north of Springfield in the southwestern part of the state.He earned a finance degree from Missouri State University in 2017. His mother, Stacey Gardiner, said she was told that he was being taken to a military base in Jordan. The family still had not spoken to him.

Mouaz Moustafa, a U.S.-based Syrian opposition activist who worked with rebels to arrange Timmerman’s transfer back to safety, tweeted a photo of the freed American standing next to a man in U.S. military uniform in the flat desert of the region.

“Safe and sound and back in American hands,” Moustafa wrote.

U.S. officials, meanwhile, are continuing their search for Austin Tice, an American journalist who disappeared 12 years ago near Damascus.

Nizar Zakka, president of the U.S.-based Hostage Aid Worldwide that was commissioned by Tice’s family to search for him, said he called Tice’s mother and sister after receiving a tip Thursday from a Syrian near where Timmerman was found. The caller thought the foreigner was Tice.

“We asked them for videos, we ask them for voice (recordings) to make sure,” Zakka said. “We had the feeling from the minute, especially from the age, that it’s not correct. But we sent it to the mom. It was 3 a.m. (in the U.S.), and we woke the sister, and she said to me one thing. She said that definitely it’s not Austin.”

In the search for Tice, Zakka said he had visited detention centers and the houses of prominent figures in Assad’s circle, but the search had so far not produced results.

The three possible scenarios, Zakka said, are that “we will find him somewhere in Damascus, in the jail that he was left in or in the house, in the safe house where he is”;that a high-ranking member of Assad’s circle took Tice along while escaping the country “as a security for his life”; or that Tice’s captors killed him and other prisoners to erase evidence of their crimes.

He criticized the U.S. for announcing a $10 million reward for information leading to Tice, saying that it had led to a flood of false tips and caused confusion.

Ukraine Assassinates Head Of Russia's Chemical & Biological Defense Forces With 'Scooter Bomb' In Moscow

In another scary escalation which will lead to unpredictable consequences, a top military general and head of the Russian military's chemical weapons forces was killed in Moscow in a targeted blast which Ukraine quickly owned up to. Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov has been confirmed killed in an assassination bombing, and is the most senior Russian official killed since the start of the Ukraine war in 2022.

According to emerging details confirmed in state TASS news agency, citing Russia's emergency services, a bomb was hidden in an electric scooter parked outside Gen. Kirillov's apartment. As he and his assistant walked by, the explosive was remotely detonated. The assistant was also immediately killed. Footage showed a large blast outside the residential building.

BREAKING: In a completely illegal, psychotic order, the deeply conflicted, corrupt, biased, and incompetent Acting Justice Juan Merchan has completely disrespected the United States Supreme Court, and its Historic Decision on Immunity. But even without Immunity, this illegitimate case is nothing but a Rigged Hoax. Merchan, who is a radical partisan, wrote an opinion that is knowingly unlawful, goes against our Constitution, and, if allowed to stand, would be the end of the Presidency as we know it. Merchan has so little respect for the Constitution that he is keeping in place an illegal gag order on me, your President and President-Elect, just so I cannot expose his and his family’s disqualifying and illegal conflicts….

….I am the only Political Opponent in American History not allowed to defend myself - A despicable First Amendment Violation! Merchan took the Manhattan D.A.’s Witch Hunt, that, according to all Legal Scholars, including Jonathan Turley, Elie Honig, Andy McCarthy, Alan Dershowitz, Gregg Jarrett, David Rivkin, Elizabeth Price Foley, Katie and Andy Cherkasky, Paul Ingrassia, and many others, is a nonexistent case, barred by the Statute of Limitations, and should have never been brought and, through his fraud and misconduct, gave it a semblance of “life.” While Deranged Jack Smith was sent packing back to The Hague after losing all of his politically manufactured cases against me, Merchan, who is far worse and even more corrupt than Smith in his fight for my hopeless political opponents, just cannot let go of this charade. Is it because of his conflicts and relations that he keeps breaking the Law? This has to stop! It is time to end the Lawfare once and for all, so we can come together as one Nation and, Make America Great Again.

NRO hits milestone with more than 100 satellites in low Earth orbit

December 17, 2024

The U.S. National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) has expanded its next-generation satellite constellation to more than 100 spacecraft, the agency said Dec. 17

SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket early on Tuesday morning successfully launched the latest mission, NROL-149, from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California.

This marks the sixth deployment in the agency’s new proliferated architecture program and its final launch for 2024.

The latest launch follows on the heels of NROL-126, which took off on November 30, demonstrating a rapid pace of deployment for the intelligence agency’s ambitious space program.

The NRO’s proliferated architecture is made up of imaging satellites built by SpaceX and Northrop Grumman.

The NRO, responsible for developing and operating U.S. spy satellites, is moving away from traditional large, expensive satellites toward a more distributed network of smaller spacecraft.

This approach, known as proliferated architecture, aims to enhance resilience and coverage while potentially reducing vulnerability to anti-satellite weapons.

The agency said it has placed more than 100 payloads into orbit over the past 18 months.

The NRO plans to continue expanding the constellation through 2028.

Former Scottish Leader Humza Yousaf to Step Down from Politics

Former Scottish First Minister Humza Yousaf announced Tuesday that he intends on stepping down from frontline politics before the next election, marking the end of a controversial career defined in large part by identity politics and attacks on fundamental liberties.

Following the downfall of Nicola Sturgeon in 2023, Humza Yousaf was elevated to the top of the leftist-separatist Scottish National Party (SNP) and thus took over the reigns of power in Holyrood as first minister of Scotland, becoming the first Muslim leader of a Western nation.

Yet Yousaf’s rule only lasted a little over a year, having been ousted amid collapse in public support in May of this year.

With little prospect of returning to power, Yousaf announced that he would be stepping down ahead of the next Scottish election, saying Tuesday that after 15 years in politics, “the time will be right for me to move on.”

T-Mobile opens beta for Starlink smartphone connectivity

December 16, 2024

T-Mobile has opened beta registration for Starlink’s direct-to-smartphone satellite service, enabling text messaging early next year on select newer devices in most U.S. cellular dead zones with a clear sky view.

The free beta program is available to all T-Mobile customers with compatible devices and postpaid voice plans, the telco announced Dec. 16, although first responders will receive priority access due to limited initial capacity.

The company declined to detail capacity and device restrictions but said the beta program would gradually expand to more devices via software updates.

“Spots are limited but the service will be available in most areas and most of the time,” a T-Mobile spokesperson said.

SpaceX has launched over 300 Starlink satellites with direct-to-smartphone payloads and recently got permission to provide the service in the United States from up to 7,500 satellites.

The satellites would use T-Mobile’s radio waves to connect devices across the 1.29 million square kilometers of land in the country not covered by cell towers.

Unlike Apple’s space-enabled messaging for iPhones, introduced in 2022 via Globalstar’s constellation, T-Mobile said Starlink-powered connectivity will not require users to point their phones skyward in search of a signal.

T-Mobile also has reciprocal Starlink roaming agreements with telcos KDDI (Japan), Optus (Australia), One NZ (New Zealand), Salt (Switzerland), Entel (Chile and Peru), and Rogers (Canada), but declined to say when the service could be extended outside the United States.

The T-Mobile spokesperson said the duration of the beta test before a commercial launch will depend on user feedback.

The Federal Communications Commission’s approval for what the regulator calls Supplemental Coverage from Space (SCS) is contingent on the service not interfering with other networks.

The FCC has also deferred deciding whether to allow SpaceX to increase the radio emission power of its direct-to-smartphone satellites, which the company says is needed to support real-time voice and other higher bandwidth capabilities.

Meanwhile, U.S. telcos AT&T and Verizon are seeking FCC permission to test rival direct-to-smartphone services in partnership with AST SpaceMobile, which deployed its first five commercial spacecraft in September on a SpaceX Falcon 9.

From Foreign Regimes to Trump: USAID’s Quiet War on Democracy

The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) presents itself as a beacon of humanitarian relief—a vessel of American generosity spreading prosperity and peace across the globe. Yet beneath this carefully manicured facade lies a far grittier reality: USAID functions not as a charitable force but as a political instrument, covertly advancing American geopolitical interests under the guise of altruism. From Latin America to Eastern Europe, its operations leave behind a trail of destabilization and suspicion, eroding the very credibility it claims to promote. President Trump, committed to exposing Washington’s bureaucratic rot, must seize this opportunity to dismantle USAID, an institution as deceptive in its purpose as it is dangerous in its execution.

USAID: A Cold War Relic in Modern Times

The creation of USAID in 1961 was no accident of goodwill. Its birth coincided with the zenith of the Cold War—a period when Washington, gripped by fear of communism, sought non-military methods to counter the Soviet Union’s ideological advances. As Thomas Jefferson once warned, "History, in its proper use, furnishes principles for judging the future," and USAID's early decades prove the point. Under the cloak of development aid, the agency became a tool for soft power infiltration, facilitating influence where bombs and bayonets would fail.

From Latin America to Southeast Asia, USAID was deployed to win hearts and minds—but always on America’s terms. Grants for “civil society” programs doubled as political levers, propping up opposition factions aligned with U.S. interests. In Bolivia, the early 2000s saw USAID funds directed toward groups antagonistic to the populist leader Evo Morales. Far from fostering democracy, such interventions destabilized already fragile societies, ensuring American leverage at the cost of local sovereignty. As in so many cases, USAID’s benevolent branding served as cover for overt interference.

Shadow Diplomacy and the Illusion of Neutrality

To the untrained eye, USAID’s initiatives often appear unimpeachable. Programs championing “election integrity” or “democratic governance” sound laudable, but the outcomes tell another story entirely. Ukraine offers perhaps the most glaring example. Prior to the 2014 Maidan protests, USAID poured resources into media outlets and non-governmental organizations critical of Viktor Yanukovych, a leader who balked at Western overtures. What followed—Yanukovych’s downfall and Ukraine’s spiral into geopolitical chaos—is a masterclass in how USAID’s so-called neutrality masks its true purpose: tilting foreign politics to align with Washington’s agenda.

Similar patterns emerge in Venezuela, where USAID’s "democracy assistance" conspicuously benefitted opposition forces antagonistic to Hugo Chávez. One cannot help but see USAID as a 21st-century version of Caesar’s legions—a quieter invasion, perhaps, but an invasion all the same. There is no charity in meddling with another nation’s sovereignty, and there is no neutrality in choosing sides.

The bureaucratic architects of USAID will protest: These efforts are about ‘empowerment,’ not influence. But their own actions betray them. Why else would USAID’s footprint so frequently overlap with America’s geopolitical battlegrounds? Its programs are not coincidentally partisan—they are deliberately designed to serve as instruments of shadow diplomacy.

‘Absolute liars': Ex-D.C. Guard official says generals lied to Congress about Jan. 6Part III

That report states that McCarthy had to call Walker twice on Jan. 6 to order him to deploy the D.C. Guard. Matthews’ memo calls this “an outrageous assertion … as insulting as it is false,” and says McCarthy himself was “incommunicado or unreachable for most of the afternoon.”

The inspector general’s report says McCarthy arrived at the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department at 4:05 p.m., and that “witnesses told us that not having heard from MG Walker regarding any specific plan.” McCarthy and others present, including D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser and D.C. Police Chief Robert Contee, themselves drafted a comprehensive plan for the Guard’s deployment, according to the Pentagon watchdog.

The report further says that soon afterward, Miller and Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, reviewed that plan over the phone. Miller authorized the deployment of the D.C. Guard and McCarthy informed Walker of it during a call at 4:35 p.m; McCarthy then held apress conference with the D.C. mayor and called Walker again to reissue the order that he deploy the Guard, according to the Pentagon inspector general.

Matthews challenges that Jan. 6 timetable in his memo. He writes that D.C. Guard leaders “still have not seen this so-called plan developed by McCarthy and allegedly approved by Acting Secretary Miller at 4:32PM.” He adds that the idea that the Army secretary would give Guard personnel support for tactical planning and coordination is “patently absurd.”

Walker, meanwhile, has said no call happened between him and McCarthy at 4:35 p.m. The D.C. Guard’s Jan. 6 timeline — produced while Walker helmed the D.C. National Guard — does not document any phone call between McCarthy and Walker at 4:35.

Both McCarthy and Miller declined to comment.

Megan Reed, a spokesperson for the Pentagon inspector general, said their office stands by its report.

Matthews’ memo also homes in on a document that Army officials have referenced but never fully revealed, titled “Report of the Army’s Operations on January 6 2021.” In Matthews’ view, it lays out a fabricated timeline in a bid to burnish the Army’s reputation.

According to Matthews, Piatt helped produce the document after a series of bruising congressional hearings and news reports that damaged the reputations of Army senior leadership — among them, a Washington Post report that the Army falsely denied Flynn’s participation in the 2:30 p.m. phone call.

“In March 2021, MG Walker was told by a friend that LTG Piatt was so upset with MG Walker that he directed the development of an Army ‘White Paper’ to retell events of 6 January in a light more favorable to LTGs Flynn, Piatt, Secretary McCarthy and the Army Staff,” Matthews writes.

The Army Staff ultimately sought “to create an alternate history which would be the Army’s official recollection of events,” Matthews continues, adding: “The end product, a revisionist tract worthy of the best Stalinist or North Korea propagandist, was close hold,” kept secret from the public.

But members of Congress have seen the document. Piatt referenced it during a House Oversight Committee hearing in June when asked about conflicting recollections of the afternoon of Jan. 6.

“I would refer to the U.S. Army Report of Operations on January 6 that we submitted to this committee,” Piatt told lawmakers. “What the D.C. National Guard did in those short hours was extraordinary. Now when people’s lives are on the line, two minutes is too long. But we were not positioned to respond to that urgent request. We had to re-prepare so we would send them in prepared for … this new mission.”

‘Absolute liars': Ex-D.C. Guard official says generals lied to Congress about Jan. 6Part II

At the time, Piatt was the director of Army staff, one of the top generals in the Pentagon, and Flynn was the Army’s director of operations. The two men were the highest-ranking Army officials who spoke on the 2:30 call, according to Matthews.

“LTG Piatt stated that it would not be his best military advice to recommend to the Secretary of the Army that the D.C. National Guard be allowed to deploy to the Capitol at that time,” Matthews wrote, adding: “LTGs Piatt and Flynn stated that the optics of having uniformed military personnel deployed to the U.S. Capitol would not be good.”

Piatt and Flynn suggested instead that Guardsmen take over D.C. police officers’ traffic duties so those officers could head to the Capitol, Matthews continues.

In addition to Matthews’ memo, POLITICO also obtained a document produced by a D.C. Guard official and dated Jan. 7 that lays out a timeline of Jan. 6. The D.C. Guard timeline, a separate document whose author took notes during the call, also said that Piatt and Flynn at 2:37 p.m. “recommended for DC Guard to standby,” rather than immediately deploying to the Capitol during the riot.

Four minutes later, according to that Guard timeline, Flynn again “advised D.C. National Guard to standby until the request has been routed” to then-Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy and then-acting Defense Secretary Chris Miller.

Everyone on the call was “astounded” except Piatt and Flynn, Matthews wrote.

Both men, however, later denied to Congress that they had said the Guard shouldn’t deploy to the Capitol.

In response to a written question from House Oversight Committee Chair Carolyn Maloney (D-N.Y.) in June about whether Piatt advised anyone in the Guard’s chain of command not to deploy directly to the Capitol, Piatt wrote, “At no point on January 6 did I tell anyone that the D.C. National Guard should not deploy directly to the Capitol.”

That statement, Matthews says in his memo, is “false and misleading.”

Walker also testified to Congress in March that Piatt and Flynn expressed concerns about “optics.”

Further, Flynn told Maloney that he “never expressed a concern about the visuals, image, or public perception of” sending Guardsmen to the Capitol.

That answer, Matthews says in his memo, is “outright perjury.”

Matthews wrote that he and Walker “heard Flynn identify himself and unmistakably heard him say that optics of a National Guard presence on Capitol Hill was an issue for him. That it would not look good. Either Piatt or Flynn mentioned ‘peaceful protestors.’”

Flynn’s brother, retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, promulgated a host of conspiracy theories in the lead-up to Jan. 6 and called for former President Donald Trump to impose martial law. Matthews’ memo does not insinuate that Gen. Charles Flynn’s actions on Jan. 6 were shaped by his brother, who has been subpoenaed by the select committee, and does not mention Michael Flynn.

The two generals told the House oversight committee that the Guard wasn’t ready to respond to the chaos that day, and Flynn testified to the House Oversight Committee in June that a “team of over 40 officers and non-commissioned officers immediately worked to recall the 154 D.C. National Guard personnel from their current missions, reorganize them, re-equip them, and begin to redeploy them to the Capitol.” Matthews says that assertion “constituted the willful deception of Congress.”

“If it does not constitute the willful and deliberate misleading of Congress, then nothing does,” Matthews wrote of Flynn’s statement. “Flynn was referring to 154 D.C. Guardsmen who were already on duty, were trained in civil disturbance response, already had area familiarization with Washington, DC, were properly kitted and were delayed only because of inaction and inertia at the Pentagon.”

In other words, Matthews indicates, the idea that it took 40 officers to get 154 National Guard personnel ready to go to the Capitol beggars belief.

Every D.C. Guard leader was desperate to get to the Capitol to help, Matthews writes — then stunned by the delay in deployment. Responding to civil unrest in Washington is “a foundational mission, a statutory mission of the D.C. National Guard,” his memo notes.

‘Absolute liars': Ex-D.C. Guard official says generals lied to Congress about Jan. 6

In a 36-page memo to the Capitol riot committee, Col. Earl Matthews also slams the Pentagon’s inspector general for what he calls an error-ridden report.

A former D.C. National Guard official is accusing two senior Army leaders of lying to Congress and participating in a secret attempt to rewrite the history of the military’s response to the Capitol riot.

In a 36-page memo, Col. Earl Matthews, who held high-level National Security Council and Pentagon roles during the Trump administration, slams the Pentagon’s inspector general for what he calls an error-riddled report that protects a top Army official who argued against sending the National Guard to the Capitol on Jan. 6, delaying the insurrection response for hours.

Matthews’ memo, sent to the Jan. 6 select committee this month and obtained by POLITICO, includes detailed recollections of the insurrection response as it calls two Army generals — Gen. Charles Flynn, who served as deputy chief of staff for operations on Jan. 6, and Lt. Gen. Walter Piatt, the director of Army staff — “absolute and unmitigated liars” for their characterization of the events of that day. Matthews has never publicly discussed the chaos of the Capitol siege.

On Jan. 6, Matthews was serving as the top attorney to Maj. Gen. William Walker, then commanding general of the D.C. National Guard. Matthews’ memo defends the Capitol attack response by Walker, who now serves as the House sergeant at arms, amplifying Walker’s previous congressional testimony about the hourslong delay in the military’s order for the D.C. National Guard to deploy to the riot scene.

“Every leader in the D.C. Guard wanted to respond and knew they could respond to the riot at the seat of government” before they were given clearance to do so on Jan. 6, Matthews’ memo reads. Instead, he said, D.C. guard officials “set [sic] stunned watching in the Armory” during the first hours of the attack on Congress during its certification of the 2020 election results.

Matthews’ memo levels major accusations: that Flynn and Piatt lied to Congress about their response to pleas for the D.C. Guard to quickly be deployed on Jan. 6; that the Pentagon inspector general’s November report on Army leadership’s response to the attack was “replete with factual inaccuracies”; and that the Army has created its own closely held revisionist document about the Capitol riot that’s “worthy of the best Stalinist or North Korea propagandist.”

The memo follows Walker’s own public call for the inspector general to retract its detailed report on the events of Jan. 6, as first reported by The Washington Post. Walker told the Post he objected to specific allegations by the Pentagon watchdog that Matthews’ memo also criticizes, calling the inspector general’s report “inaccurate” and “sloppy work.”

The new memo from Matthews, who now serves in the Army reserves, emerges as officials involved in the response that day try to explain their decision-making to investigators. The House select committee has probed the attack for months, and earlier this year top officials testified before the House oversight panel.

Reached for comment, Matthews said the memo he wrote is entirely accurate. “Our Army has never failed us and did not do so on January 6, 2021,” he said. “However, occasionally some of our Army leaders have failed us and they did so on January 6th. Then they lied about it and tried to cover it up. They tried to smear a good man and to erase history.”

Flynn, now the commanding general of the U.S. Army Pacific, and Piatt didn’t respond to messages. Army spokesperson Mike Brady said in a statement that the service’s “actions on January 6th have been well-documented and reported on, and Gen. Flynn and Lt. Gen. Piatt have been open, honest and thorough in their sworn testimony with Congress and DOD investigators.”

USSF field commands successfully launch GPS III, demonstrating expedited launch capabilities

Dec. 17, 2024

U.S. Space Force’s Space Systems Command and Space Operations Command executed an accelerated timeline to meet a specific warfighter need through a Rapid Response Trailblazer launch.

SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket launched this National Security Space Launch mission with a GPS III Space Vehicle aboard, named SV-07, Dec. 16, from Space Launch Complex 40, Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Florida.

The mission successfully achieved a complex effort across multiple Space Force organizations to pull an existing GPS III satellite from storage, accelerate integration and launch vehicle readiness, and rapidly process for launch.

The success of the launch proved a two-fold concept of operations. For SSC, Assured Access to Space successfully demonstrated and highlighted its agility in partnership with industry to respond to changing national needs by executing an NSS-class launch in less than five months.

“This launch was a remarkable achievement that highlights the Space Force’s ability to execute high priority launches of major space systems on a significantly reduced timescale,” said Col. Jim Horne, senior materiel leader of Launch Execution for AATS.

“As an added benefit, it also demonstrates flexibility to adjust our manifest to minimize the impact of Vulcan delays. In this case, revised planning for this RRT began at launch minus-five months instead of our normal launch minus-24 months.

It not only demonstrates the teams’ ability to respond to emergent constellation needs but is a testament to our flexibility and responsiveness to deliver capability as rapidly as Space Vehicle readiness allows.

In this case, it’s not just the warfighter, but also the nation and our allies around the world that rely on GPS on a daily basis.”

For SpOC, the event not only marked a first for Mission Delta 31 as the SV lead but also demonstrated flexibility and responsiveness by reducing the typical six-month SV pre-launch processing timeline to approximately three months.

Similar to the flexibility with launch partners for AATS, this also included coordination with MD 31 and Lockheed Martin in Colorado to process SV-07 out of storage within the reduced timescale.

“This was an amazing effort across multiple teams and agencies,” said Col. Andrew Menschner, Delta 31 mission commander.

“This launch showed our ability to respond quickly to an operational need, such as an on-orbit vehicle failure of the GPS constellation, as well as demonstrating our willingness to challenge traditional timelines associated with launches in response to a realistic scenario.”

This launch was the first exercise of trailblazer capabilities for the GPS constellation.

“We have a very healthy GPS constellation, now with 31 active vehicles, seven on orbit in reserve status and three GPS III vehicles completed and awaiting launch,” Menschner said.

“Over six billion people use GPS on a daily basis, and we are always eager to update the global capability we provide by getting some new technology on orbit.”

Key enablers required to accelerate the mission spanned multiple disciplines and organizations, addressing technical matters such as space vehicle-to-launch vehicle integration, on-console satellite control preparedness, along with nimble contracting and procurement actions.

“The launch and spacecraft teams quickly aligned to execute this campaign and demonstrated the resiliency, communication and teamwork necessary to resolve schedule and technical challenges without compromising mission success,” said Dr. Walt Lauderdale, Falcon Systems and Operations chief and launch mission director.

“This partnership is an example of new and faster ways we can deliver launch in support of future warfighter needs. The Space Force quickly energized multiple organizations, and the joint team delivered a specific, important mission to orbit in record time.”

Ohio Senate Passes Bill Aimed at Outlawing Criticism of Israel, Criminalizing Gospel

The GOP-controlled Ohio Senate has overwhelmingly passed a bill aimed at outlawing criticism of Israel, criminalizing preaching the Gospel and expanding hate crime "ethnic intimidation" laws to fight "antisemitism."

They know the bill blatantly infringes on the First Amendment but they simply don't care.

Small drone found on grounds of Nantucket Memorial Airport

December 16, 2024

A drone was found on the grounds of Nantucket Memorial Airport Sunday, officials said, amid a slew of reported drone sightings across the East Coast.

At around 7:30 a.m., airport operations staff discovered a small, multi-rotor drone on the airfield, the airport said in a statement.

It was found on the pavement of an area “reserved for the safe operation of aircraft,” airport staff said.

Airport staff reported the finding to the Federal Aviation Administration and the Transportation Security Administration, the statement said.

The drone, which weighs less than 0.55 pounds, is readily available online and “may not require FAA registration” if used recreationally, the airport said. However, regulations around airports are a bit tighter.

“Drone operators should avoid flying near airports and must receive an airspace authorization prior to operation,” the airport said.

No flights at Nantucket Memorial Airport were impacted and there were no reported threats to aircraft, according to the airport.

Back on the mainland, two men are accused of flying a drone near Boston’s Logan International Airport Saturday night.

Utah’s Hill Air Force Base confirms drone sightings

December 16, 2024 at 6:26 PM MST

Hill Air Force Base has confirmed that Utahns recently spotted unmanned aerial vehicles, or drones, flying near the base in Davis County.

In a statement, officials said they will continue to monitor the area and are working with local authorities to track the drones.

“To date, unmanned aerial systems have not impacted Hill AFB operations and all appropriate measures are being taken to safeguard Hill AFB personnel, assets, and infrastructure,” the statement read.

Nationwide, unidentified drones and lights have sparked curiosity and concerns about national security. On Dec. 15, Utahns reported seeing lights in the sky above Davis County on the social media site Reddit.

Hill Air Force Base is requesting people report any suspicious activity to local police or base security.

For some in the industry, the increased sightings and attention on drones is a byproduct of change overhead.

“We're sort of entering what I like to call the new golden age of aviation,” said Brendan Stewart, vice president of regulatory affairs at drone company Red Cat, which owns and operates Salt Lake City-based Teal Drones.

“The makeup of operations in the national airspace is changing, and folks who've not spent a lot of time sort of looking up at the sky and wondering what's going on are now realizing that the day-to-day operations in the airspace are different than they used to be,” Stewart said.

The Federal Aviation Administration regulates drone use, and Stewart said those regulations have loosened in recent years, allowing for more waivers.

That means more drones in the skies at night and other times when people may not be used to seeing them.

Teal recently secured a $260 million contract with the U.S. Army, but it isn’t just the military that uses drones. Photographers, hobbyists, law enforcement, and even search and rescue teams all use unmanned aerial vehicles.

Stewart said Teal’s factory is in South Salt Lake, but they try to be cognizant of the neighborhood so they conduct most of their testing in Utah’s West Desert.

“There's probably a lot of folks who are not used to seeing that activity, and especially because drones fly lower than most manned aircraft, it could be a little surprising or unsettling to see them show up.”

For Stewart, the best way to identify what’s in the sky is to download an app that tracks the signals of drones and planes.

The holidays are another reason sightings may be on the rise at this particular moment. When drones end up as gifts, that lifts the number of people, many of them new, flying them.

The FAA requires passing an online safety training course to operate a drone recreationally, but not everyone knows that.

“They're probably not nefarious,” Stewart said. “It's probably, frankly, a pretty boring operation that's going on that just happens to be conspicuous.”

Mysterious drones spotted in Tacoma, WA

December 16, 2024 9:51pm PST

On the heels of a drone scare in New Jersey where federal and government officials are investigating multiple reports of drones, people in Tacoma claim to be seeing similar objects in the night sky.

People claim these "drone-like" flying objects range in size. Some are the size of a small car, others a little bigger than a typical consumer drone.

Regardless of size, some have been seen flying over military bases and various infrastructure.

Dozens of people across the Puget Sound region have claimed to see these drones at night, including Shane and Kristen Elduen.

They live in West Tacoma and claim to have seen 10 large drones moving towards water.

"They had their own little light show going on up there," said Kristen Elduen. "They were flashing red, green and white lights, and then when you do get a shape of it, it’s almost like a a small plane."

"It doesn’t seem like anybody really knows what it is and it’s happening all over the place, now in Tacoma," said Kristen’s husband, Shane.

The couple shared video of the mysterious drone event. It’s a three-minute-long interview.

According to reports, these Tacoma drones are similar to the ones seen popping up in New Jersey, Washington, D.C., and beyond.

Local officials say they have received reports of drones flying near the Narrow’s Bridge, flying over Commencement Bay, and most recently above the Elduen’s family home.

Despite these sightings, local and federal officials said these "mystery drones pose no threat or security risk."

NYPD Recovers Drone in Brooklyn Amid ‘Mysterious’ Sightings

December 17, 2024

The New York Police Department (NYPD) recovered a massive drone measuring more than 5 feet in diameter that was reportedly abandoned in the Brooklyn Navy Yard.

The New York Post reports cops responded to a tip via email of the drone sighting, which they found on the sidewalk.

The source of the drone, identified by a passer-by, is Amogy, Inc., a “sustainable-energy startup working to use ammonia as a renewable fuel resource, including for aerial vehicles,” according to The Post.

Amogy CEO Seonghoon Woo confirmed that the drone is his company’s property, noting that it was placed on the sidewalk after a company party about one month ago.

According to a spokesperson from the company, the drone, which is now inoperable, was used in a demonstration of its “clean energy technology” three years ago. It has been on display outside of the company’s headquarters since that time.

Amogy has fully cooperated with law enforcement since it was taken into possession by the NYPD for a brief period. After determining that the drone was not a threat, the NYPD returned it to the company.

The discovery of this drone comes as others flying over New York City and other states have drawn national attention and concern.

After stealing headline after headline, Americans have grown worried about the drone sightings as the reason for their presence has yet to be explained.

According to the New York Post, “Rebecca Weiner, NYPD Deputy Commissioner of counterterrorism and intelligence, told reporters at an unrelated briefing that despite drone mania taking hold in New York and New Jersey over the past month, the perceived surge in sightings may be attributable to the power of suggestion.”

Weiner explained that the sightings of drones flying above New York City are nothing out of the ordinary and “quite normal” given the numerous drones seen everyday.

Weiner added that there are about 2,000 drone flights each week in the city, but a lack of reporting about them has left their use essentially unrecognized by New Yorkers.

Recently, the drone sightings over New York and New Jersey have grabbed headline after headline, leading some to panic over the mystery behind the devices.

What is happening now, Weiner said, is an increase in reports of the drones which does not mean that there is an increase in threats.

New Yorkers, including congressional leaders, have demanded an explanation for the drone sightings, but thus far, all the federal government has shared is that the devices are “legal and lawful drones,” according to National Security Communications Adviser John Kirby.

In an appearance on FOX News, Kirby said, the government’s assessment is that the aircraft activity is not a national security threat because of the detection analyses done by officials including the FBI and the Department of Defense.

The sightings near and over military bases are being investigated in a different category, Kirby added, noting that there has been no disruption at military bases because of the sightings.

In response to President-elect Trump calling out the Biden administration for not telling Americans exactly what is going on and keeping them in suspense, Kirby reiterated and maintained that there is no indication of a national security threat, but legislation is currently being drawn up to respond to concerns over drones.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

In Michigan, a state known for its battleground status, the gubernatorial race has hit an unexpected snag that could tilt the scales in favor of Republicans. Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan, long seen as the Democrat front-runner for the governor’s seat, has decided to run as an independent. This move is seen by many as a desperate attempt by a Democrat to distance himself from the failures of the Party, especially in light of the term-limited Governor Gretchen Whitmer’s controversial tenure.

Duggan’s decision to run outside the Democrat label comes at a time when the party’s policies are under fire for economic mismanagement, rising crime rates, and what conservatives argue is an overreach in social policies. His move has sparked frustration among Michigan Democrats, with some like Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson arguing that true leaders should stay and address issues within their party, not flee. This sentiment reflects a broader critique that Democrat leaders often abandon ship when the going gets tough, leaving voters with more questions than answers.

The twist in this race has led to speculation about whether Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg might be coaxed into running as the Democrat standard-bearer. Known for his appearances on conservative media, Buttigieg has been praised by some for his willingness to engage with different political audiences. However, his potential candidacy is viewed with skepticism by those who see him as a puppet of the Biden administration’s policies, which many argue have exacerbated issues like inflation and infrastructure neglect.

Critics are quick to point out that Buttigieg’s record at the Department of Transportation has been less than stellar, with delays in infrastructure projects and mismanagement during crises like supply chain disruptions. His entry into the race could be perceived by some as an attempt by Democrats to inject a “fresh face” into a tarnished narrative, but one that might not resonate with Michigan voters who are increasingly turning away from the Democrat establishment.

Furthermore, the independent run by Duggan could split the Democrat vote, providing an unprecedented opportunity for Republicans to capture the governorship. This scenario is seen as a potential backlash against years of progressive policies that many argue have led Michigan down a path of economic stagnation and social division.

More Than 5,000 Drone Sightings Reported, FBI Says

Updated Dec 17, 2024 at 5:15 AM EST

What's New

A joint statement from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Department of Homeland Security and other government agencies released on Monday has confirmed there have been more than 5,000 drone sightings over East Coast states in recent weeks.

Why It Matters

Residents across several East Coast states have reported seeing uncrewed aerial systems, also known as drones, flying in the sky.

Speculation is growing over why the number of sightings has increased, where the drones may have come from and who is flying them.

The majority of the sightings have been reported in New Jersey, with reported drone activity also temporarily closing runways at New York's Stewart International Airport for about an hour on Friday.

On the same day, airspace above Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio was restricted because of drone activity.

What To Know

In its statement, the government agencies said the FBI had "received tips of more than 5,000 reported drone sightings in the last few weeks with approximately 100 leads generated" and that the federal government was "supporting state and local officials in investigating these reports."

Who is operating the drones remains unknown, but according to the statement, there appears to be no threat to public safety or national security.

It said: "Having closely examined the technical data and tips from concerned citizens, we assess that the sightings to date include a combination of lawful commercial drones, hobbyist drones, and law enforcement drones, as well as manned fixed-wing aircraft, helicopters, and stars mistakenly reported as drones.

"We have not identified anything anomalous and do not assess the activity to date to present a national security or public safety risk over the civilian airspace in New Jersey or other states in the northeast."

At present, there are almost 800,000 drones registered with the Federal Aviation Authority. Any drone that weighs more than 0.55 pounds must be registered.

What People Are Saying

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas: "If there is any reason for concern, if we identify any foreign involvement or criminal activity, we will communicate with the American public accordingly. Right now we are not aware of any."

President-elect Donald Trump: "Our military knows where they took off from … And for some reason they [federal officials] don't want to comment.

And I think they'd be better off saying what it is. Our military knows, and our president knows. And for some reason they want to keep people in suspense." He did not cite evidence for his claims.

New Jersey Republican Representative Chris Smith: "The elusive maneuvering of these drones suggests a major military power sophistication that begs the question whether they have been deployed to test our defense capabilities—or worse—by violent dictatorships, perhaps maybe Russia, or China, or Iran, or North Korea."

Pentagon press secretary Major General Pat Ryder: "There are thousands of drones flown around the U.S. on a daily basis.

So as a result, it's not that unusual to see drones in the sky, nor is it an indication of malicious activity or any public safety threat. And so the same applies to drones flown near U.S. military installations."

What's Next

While the Biden administration has said there is no major concern over the increased drone sightings, Senate Majority leader Chuck Schumer has called for "special drone detection" to be deployed over New Jersey and New York. Other lawmakers have backed his call.

US military flies American released from Syrian prison to Jordan, officials sayLOLITA C. BALDOR and AAMER MADHANI December 13, 2024

WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. military has transported out of Syria an American who had disappeared seven months ago into former President Bashar Assad’s notorious prison system and was among the thousands released this week by rebels, U.S. officials said Friday.

Travis Timmerman, 29, was flown to Jordan on a U.S. military helicopter, according to two U.S. officials who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing operation.

It’s unclear where Timmerman may go next.He thanked his rescuers for freeing him but has told American officials that he would like to stay in the region(CIA?), according to another person familiar with the matter who was not authorized to comment publicly. Timmerman was detained after he crossed into Syria while on a Christian pilgrimage from a mountain along the eastern Lebanese town of Zahle in June.

He told The Associated Press in an interview earlier Friday thathe was not ill-treated while in Palestine Branch, a notorious detention facility operated by Syrian intelligence. In his prison cell, Timmerman said, he had a mattress, a plastic drinking container and two others for waste. He said the Friday calls to prayers helped keep track of days.

Timmerman said he was released Monday morning alongside a young Syrian man and 70 female prisoners, some of whom had their children with them, after rebels seized control of Damascus and forced Assad from power in a dramatic upheaval.

He said he was freed by “the liberators who came into the prison and knocked the door down (of his cell) with a hammer.”He had been held separately from Syrian and other Arab prisoners and said he didn’t know of any other Americans held in the facility.

Timmerman is from Urbana, Missouri, about 50 miles (80 kilometers) north of Springfield in the southwestern part of the state.He earned a finance degree from Missouri State University in 2017. His mother, Stacey Gardiner, said she was told that he was being taken to a military base in Jordan. The family still had not spoken to him.

Mouaz Moustafa, a U.S.-based Syrian opposition activist who worked with rebels to arrange Timmerman’s transfer back to safety, tweeted a photo of the freed American standing next to a man in U.S. military uniform in the flat desert of the region.

“Safe and sound and back in American hands,” Moustafa wrote.

U.S. officials, meanwhile, are continuing their search for Austin Tice, an American journalist who disappeared 12 years ago near Damascus.

Nizar Zakka, president of the U.S.-based Hostage Aid Worldwide that was commissioned by Tice’s family to search for him, said he called Tice’s mother and sister after receiving a tip Thursday from a Syrian near where Timmerman was found. The caller thought the foreigner was Tice.

“We asked them for videos, we ask them for voice (recordings) to make sure,” Zakka said. “We had the feeling from the minute, especially from the age, that it’s not correct. But we sent it to the mom. It was 3 a.m. (in the U.S.), and we woke the sister, and she said to me one thing. She said that definitely it’s not Austin.”

In the search for Tice, Zakka said he had visited detention centers and the houses of prominent figures in Assad’s circle, but the search had so far not produced results.

The three possible scenarios, Zakka said, are that “we will find him somewhere in Damascus, in the jail that he was left in or in the house, in the safe house where he is”;that a high-ranking member of Assad’s circle took Tice along while escaping the country “as a security for his life”; or that Tice’s captors killed him and other prisoners to erase evidence of their crimes.

He criticized the U.S. for announcing a $10 million reward for information leading to Tice, saying that it had led to a flood of false tips and caused confusion.

@Charliekirk

Anthony Romero, Executive President of the ACLU, tells Rachel Maddow his organization has developed a lawfare strategy to pressure local elected officials to "sever relationships" with the federal government and then pardon MILLIONS of illegal migrants to help shield them from deportation.

Democrats simply can't help themselves — all they care about is flouting the law, putting illegal foreigners above Americans, and doubling down on the same stupid that delivered Trump the biggest mandate in a generation.

Donald Trump says he likely won't go to Bedminster due to reported drone sightings

Updated 2:36 p.m. ET December 16, 2024

President-elect Donald Trump made comments about the alleged drones that have been flying over New Jersey this past month in a press conference on Monday afternoon, saying he believes that the United States government is not sharing the full information.

"The government knows what is happening. Our military knows where they took off from. If it's a garage, they can go right into that garage. They know where it came from and where it went, and for some reason they don't want to comment," Trump said.

Trump said he does not believe foreign countries are flying the drones into the state, despite comments from fellow Republicans.

"I can't imagine it is the enemy because if it was the enemy, they'd blast it out. Even if they were late, they'd blast it. Something strange is going on, and for some reason they don't want to tell the people," said Trump.

The president-elect also added that because the drones are flying close to Bedminster, where his golf course is located, that he will avoid the area.

"They (the drones) happened to be over Bedminster. I think maybe I won't spend the weekend at Bedminster. I've decided to cancel my trip," he said.

House Republicans fume at Speaker Johnson over handling of CR: ‘A total dumpster fire’

Mychael Schnell Tue, December 17, 2024 at 11:28 AM EST

(Once again, Johnson and lies and starts a fire in the country)

House Republicans fume at Speaker Johnson over handling of CR: ‘A total dumpster fire’.

House Republicans are fuming at Speaker Mike Johnson’s (R-La.) handling of an end-of-year measure to extend government funding until March, saying it is more like a sprawling omnibus — which they abhor — than a simple temporary funding measure.

The continuing resolution (CR), which will keep government funding at current levels through March 14,is also set to include $100.4 billion in disasteraid for those affected by hurricanes earlier this year and $10 billion in economic assistance for farmers, lawmakers said, among other provisions.

“It’s not a CR, which is a continuation of the budget. It’s turning into an omnibus,” Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) said.

The final text of the measure has not yet been released, as congressional leaders work through the remaining hangups ahead of Friday’s funding deadline. But as the package begins to come into clear focus, Republicans of all stripes — including hard-line conservatives, committee chairs and moderates — are hammering away at Johnson for its contents, the process he followed to craft it, and how he plans to bring it to the floor for a vote.

“It’s a total dumpster fire. I think it’s garbage,” said Rep. Eric Burlison (R-Mo.), a member of the conservative House Freedom Caucus. “This is what Washington, D.C., has done. This is why I ran for Congress, to try to stop this. And sadly, this is happening again.”

“We get this negotiated crap, and we’re forced to eat this crap sandwich,” echoed Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas), another Freedom Caucus member. “Why? Because freaking Christmas is right around the corner. It’s the same dang thing every year. Legislate by crisis, legislate by calendar. Not legislate because it’s the right thing to do.”

Johnson received an earful of criticism during a closed-door House GOP conference meeting Tuesday, where he briefed members on the emerging details of the government funding package.The gripes are not just coming from hard-line conservatives. Rep. Mike Lawler(R-N.Y.), who represents a district won by President Biden in 2020 and Vice President Harris last month, stood upduring the GOP conference meeting and told Johnson the government funding process has not been member-driven, according to a source in the room.

Lawler also aired grievances about Democrats playing a key role in the funding process, telling Johnson at one point,“I’m not a f ing Democrat.”

“Lawler just went to the microphone and he said, ‘This is no way to due process. … This is bulls ,’”the source said. “He’s like, ‘Look, why are you telling me, if I want something I need to go talk to [Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer], and [House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries] hasn’t blessed this.’”

“He literally said, ‘because I’m not a f ing Democrat,’” the source added. “He said, you know, I should be able to go move the concerns and priorities for my district without having to go talk to these guys. He said it hasn’t been a member-driven process.”

At one point, when Johnson told his members that the CR was a collaborative effort that had committee involvement, Rep. JasonSmith (R-Mo.), the chair of the Ways and Means Committee, responded “not true,” according to a source in the room. Smith declined to answer questions from reporters as he left the meeting.

Johnson, for his part, sought to sell the emerging package to his conference during the meeting, claiming to members that Schumer negotiated in bad faith and that Democrats did not secure any wins in the bill, another source in the room told The Hill.

After the gathering, the Speaker downplayed concerns from Republicans who said the bill is akin to an omnibus.

“This is not an omnibus, OK? This is a small CR that we had to add things to that were out of our control,”Johnson said in a press conference. “These are not man-made disasters. These are things that are — the federal government has an appropriate role to do.”

“So, I wish it weren’t necessary. I wish we hadn’t had record hurricanes in the fall. And I wish our farmers were not in a bind so much that creditors are not able to lend to them. We have to be able to help those who are in these dire straits,” Johnson said….

Jan 6 doesn't have to take place in order for Trump to be inaugurated on Jan 20 as President. Once the electors sign their certificates and transmit them to an official in DC he is clear to be sworn in as President.

There isNOConstitutional stipulation as to CiC waiting until Jan 20th.

Walmart employees are now wearing body cameras in some stores

Tue, Dec 17 2024 7:35 AM EST Gabrielle Fonrouge

Key Points

• Some Walmart employees are now wearing body cameras in U.S. stores as part of a pilot program.

• The tech, widely deployed in law enforcement, is now being expanded into retail to help deter conflict and prevent theft.

• TJX Companies said earlier this year that its loss prevention employees are using body cameras in some locations.

Walmart has started giving store-level associates body cameras to wear as part of a pilot program at some of its U.S. locations, CNBC has learned.

It’s not clear how many of Walmart’s stores have the recording devices, but some locations now have signs at entry points warning shoppers that it has “body-worn cameras in-use,” according to witnesses and photos posted online.

In at least one store in Denton, Texas — about 40 miles north of Dallas — an associate checking receipts was seen wearing a yellow-and-black body camera earlier this month, according to a shopper who shared a photo with CNBC.

“While we don’t talk about the specifics of our security measures, we are always looking at new and innovative technology used across the retail industry,” a Walmart spokesperson told CNBC. “This is a pilot we are testing in one market, and we will evaluate the results before making any longer-term decisions.”

Walmart, the largest nongovernmental employer in the U.S., is testing the technology after smaller retailers started trying body cameras at their own stores as a way to deter theft. Body cameras and the footage they gather are commonly advertised as a way to prevent shoplifting, but Walmart intends to use the tech for worker safety — not as a loss prevention tool, according to a person familiar with the program.

In a document titled “Providing great customer service while creating a safer environment,” staff are instructed on how to use the devices, according to a photo of the document posted on an online forum for Walmart employees and customers. It instructs employees to “record an event if an interaction with a customer is escalating” and to not wear the devices in employee break areas and bathrooms. After an incident occurs, staffers are told, they are to discuss it with another team member, who can help them log the event in the “ethics and compliance app,” according to the document.

The body cameras at Walmart come during the thick of the holiday shopping season, when retail employees work long hours and face tough interactions with customers that can be more tense and hostile than usual.

“There’s too much harassment that goes on throughout the year, but especially during the holiday season … it’s even worse,” said Stuart Appelbaum, president of the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union. “Everyone is stressed out. If they can’t find the item they’re looking for, they get upset and whom do they blame? They blame the shop worker.”

However, it’s unclear whether body cameras actually help to deescalate conflict. Appelbaum, whose union does not represent Walmart employees but includes staff from retailers such as Macy’s and H&M, said the RWDSU is concerned that body cameras are more about surveillance and deterring theft than making employees safer.

“Workers need training on deescalation. Workers need training on what to do during a hostile situation at work. The body camera doesn’t do that. The body camera doesn’t intervene,” said Appelbaum. “We need safe staffing and we need panic buttons.”

Bianca Agustin, the co-executive director of United for Respect, a workers organization for Walmart and Amazon staffers, said the group has asked Walmart to provide more training for its employees but that the company hasn’t met those demands. She said body cameras could be part of the solution but cameras alone are “no substitute” for proper training.

“There’s a claim that the body cams are going to promote deescalation just organically. We don’t think that’s true,” said Agustin. “You see a lot of violence against workers already at the self-checkout kiosks when they even are attempting to [deter theft] … there’s a potential that this might hurt that [deterrence] … it also could provoke people.”

Plus, “there’s already cameras in stores,” said Agustin.

VICTORY — American Airlines Agrees to End Illegal Discrimination in Hiring, Recruiting, and Employment Practices Following AFL’s Civil Rights Complaint

December 17, 2024

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Last week, the Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) notified America First Legal (AFL) thatAmerican Airlines has agreed to abandon the discriminatory employment practicesAFL outlined in its federal civil rights complaint against the company.The airline acknowledged that recruiting and hiring based on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) violates federal laws and equal employment opportunities.

On January 17, 2024, AFL filed a complaint against American Airlines with the OFCCP, requesting an immediate investigation into the airline for non-compliance with federal contracting requirements. Despite receiving over $140 million in federal government contracts since 2008 and promising in accordance with Executive Order 11246 that it will not discriminate in hiring, promotion, or employee training because of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin,American Airlines has explicitly engaged in race and sex discrimination in hiring programs, Cadet Academy recruitment, and promotional processes.

On December 13, 2024, the OFCCP held an informal compliance conference with American Airlines in accordance with 41 CFR §60-1.24 (c) (2) to address the allegations detailed in AFL’s complaint. OFCCP’s investigation indicated a violation of the equal opportunity clause, requiring a compliance conference with American Airlines to resolve the matter. Following the compliance conference with OFCCP,American Airlines acknowledged and agreed to end its illegal race and sex-based discrimination in hiring and promotional practices.

Earlier this year, AFL filed similar complaints against United Airlines and Southwest Airlines. The OFCCP has since confirmed that each airline has agreed to end illegal, discriminatory hiring practices, including quotas and benchmarks for recruiting and hiring based on race and sex.

American Airlines, United Airlines, and Southwest Airlines have a combined airline market share of approximately 50 percent. AFL will continue to fight against illegal DEI policies and ensure that taxpayer dollars do not fund unlawful discrimination through federal contracts with non-compliant corporations.

Statement from Will Scolinos, America First Legal Counsel:

“American companies must return to using merit—not the desire to check a DEI box—to select the most skilled and qualified employees. American Airlines’ agreement with the OFCCP is AFL’s latest victory in our fight to put illegal discrimination on the no-fly list,” said Will Scolinos.

Assassinated Russian general worked ‘fearlessly’ to expose Western crimes – Moscow

The commander of the Russian Radiological, Chemical, and Biological Defense Forces, Igor Kirillov, was allegedly murdered on Kiev’s orders

Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov, the commander of the Russian Radiological, Chemical, and Biological Defense Forces who was assassinated in Moscow on Tuesday, had for years systematically exposed Western crimes involving chemical weapons and did so fearlessly, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova has said.

Kirillov was killed along with his aide in an explosion in southeastern Moscow in the early morning.

A number of media outlets have since reported that the murder was carried out on the orders of Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU), which had labeled Kirillov as an “absolutely legitimate target” for assassination.

Writing on Kirillov’s passing, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Zakharova said that throughout his career he had repeatedly exposed the crimes of the “Anglo-Americans” such as“NATO provocations with chemical weapons in Syria, Britain’s manipulations with prohibited chemical substances and provocations in Salisbury and Amesbury, the deadly activities of American biolabs in Ukraine, and much more.”

“He worked fearlessly. He did not hide behind people’s backs,” Zakharova wrote.

Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, who currently serves as deputy chairman of the national Security Council, also expressed his condolences to Kirillov’s colleagues, family, and friends, and stated that the attack in which he was killed was “the agony of the Bandera regime.”

“With its last strength, it is trying to justify its worthless existence before its Western masters, to prolong the war and death, to justify the catastrophic situation at the front. Realizing the inevitability of its military defeat, it is inflicting cowardly and vile blows in peaceful cities,” Medvedev said.

State Duma Defense Committee chairman Andrey Kartapolov described Kirillov as a “worthy Russian general” and a “real officer,” stating that had done “a lot to bring the US to justice,” particularly with regards to Washington’s activities in setting up laboratories around the world, including in Ukraine.

“We caught them there, and Kirillov’s role in this is greater than anywhere else,” Kartapolov said. He added that Kirillov’s revelations have “caught too many people” and that he “wouldn’t be surprised” if figures outside of Kiev also had a hand in his assassination, including the son of US President Joe Biden, Hunter Biden.

Kartapolov stressed that those who organized and carried out Kirillov’s murder will be found and punished, “whoever they are and wherever they are.”

State Duma Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin also condemned Kirillov’s assassination, stating that it once again highlights “the criminal nature of the Kiev regime.”

“It is a terrorist state headed by an illegitimate president – a Nazi. All those guilty must receive the punishment they deserve,” Volodin was quoted as saying by the Duma press service.

America First Legal Launches Investigation to Examine Connection Between Loudoun County School Board, Former FBI Deputy Director Andy McCabe, and the Infamous AG Garland October 4th Memo Used to Target American Parents

December 13, 20241/2

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, America First Legal(AFL) launched an investigation to determine the role of former FBI Deputy Director and Loudoun County resident Andy McCabe and his wife Jill McCabe, advisor to the Loudoun County School Board, in Attorney General Merrick Garland’s October 4th, 2021 memothat mobilized federal counter-terrorism resources against concerned parents speaking up during school board meetings.

In 2020, parents in Loudoun County began speaking out againsta variety of issues involving their public schools, includingschool closures, Critical Race Theory (CRT), transgender bathroom and locker room policies, and the politicizationof the Loudoun County School Board as it related to those issues.

In March 2021, the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office opened a criminal investigation into a private Facebook group called “The Anti-Racist Parents of Loudoun County” after members suggested targeting parents for speaking out at school board meetings againstschool closures and CRT in Loudoun County Public Schools (LCPS). Among the group members were six school board members, the Commonwealth Attorney, and a member of the Board of Supervisors. ==Later, the FBI launched a parallel probe into the matter.

On May 28, 2021, LCPS announced that there was an incident in the main office of Stone Bridge High School but that there was no safety threat.That “safety incident” was in reference to an upset father, not the underlying sexual assault of his daughter.

(Snapshot 1)

Later that evening, an FBI agent called the Loudoun CountyEmergency Communications Center and asked about “the incident at Stone Bridge HS today.” When the operatorinformed the FBI agent that it was a sexual assault investigation being handled by local law enforcement, the FBI agent lost interest.

Snapshot 2

Since the beginning of2021, members of the Loudoun County School Board and allied community members made reports to local and federal law enforcement, alleging that they had been threatened and harassed for their advocacy in support of school closures, CRT, and the district’s transgender policies.Community members have also publicly discussed having contact with the FBI which was monitoring local issues in Loudoun County.

Snapshot 3

Notably, on December 17, 2020, Jill McCabe was appointed as a formal advisor to the Loudoun County School Board. On June 22, 2021, the Loudoun County SchoolBoard held a meeting to discuss the adoption of “transgender” bathroom and locker room policies. Jill McCabe was the second speaker and spoke in favor of the policies. The school board ended public comment after members of the audience applauded a speaker who was critical of the board’s policies. Following the closing of the meeting,Scott Smith, whose daughter had been sexually assaulted in the school restroom, was arrested during a confrontation with a member of “The Anti-Racist Parents” of Loudoun County.

Ms. McCabe was also a candidate for Virginia Senate in 2015 and received over $700k in campaign donations from entities controlled by then-Gov. and 2021 gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe. Shortly after the issuance of the Attorney General’s October 4, 2021 memo, Andy McCabe served as a keynote speaker at a Loudoun County Public Schools event on cybersecurity.

Snapshot 4

On ==September 29, 2021, the partisan “National School Boards Association” made public a “letter” demanding federal

action under the PATRIOT ACT to stop parents from objecting to mask mandates and CRT. The group demanded Federal action because parents were engaged in First Amendment activities, including “posting watchlists against school boards and spreading misinformation that boards are adopting critical race theory curriculum== and working to maintain online learning by haphazardly attributing it to COVID-19.”

On October 4, 2021, Attorney General Merrick Garland issued his infamous memo to the FBI and all United States Attorneys, promising the Department would “protect all people in the United States from violence, threats of violence, and other forms of intimidation and harassment.” The press release announcing the memo also encouraged people to report to the FBI’s National Threat Operations Center.

Almost immediately, on October 7, 2021, AFL requested the Department of Justice Office of Inspector General investigate “whether the Attorney General’s memo was formulated and issued based on improper considerations.”

AFL highlighted serious irregularities, including evidence demonstrating that the memo stated justification was a fabricated pretext by the Biden White House to chill parents’ speech and political action. Among other things, AFL pointed out that “the normal clearance process and standard order both within the department (including legal sufficiency review by the Office of Legal Counsel, the Civil Rights Division, the Criminal Division, the Office of Legal Policy, and other components), and between the department and the White House Counsel’s Office and the Office of Management and Budget, [had been] bypassed or corrupted.”

On May 21, 2023, the House Weaponization Committee released a report revealing that the FBI had opened 25 assessments with the threat tag “EDUOFFICIALS” and assigned seventeen of those investigations to the Criminal Investigative Division, six to the Counterterrorism Division and two to the Weapons of Mass Destruction Directorate. Of those 25 investigations, the FBI determined that only one warranted a full investigation.

The Committee also revealed that the Attorney General’s memo was an attempt to silence parents critical of Democratic education policies(policies like school closures, Critical Race Theory, transgender bathroom, and locker room policies) ahead of the 2021 Virginia Gubernatorial election between Glenn Youngkin and Terry McAuliffe.

On December 21, 2023, AFL released additional records confirming that the Garland memo was the means by which leftist political officials weaponized the government against parents.

There was no place in Virginia where parents were more critical of far-left school policies than Loudoun County. AFL demands complete transparency in the FBI’s involvement and collusion in the unconstitutional attack on American parents defending their children from leftist ideology.

Statement from Will Scolinos, America First Legal Counsel:

“The FBI exists to protect everyday Americans from critical threats—not to target them for speaking out against injustice. AFL and Congressional investigators have established that the Biden-Harris Administration in Washington, DC, had weaponized the federal government to target parents without reason and contrary to law. This investigation follows up on our prior work by focusing on whether the FBI was directly or, through former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe’s wife Jill McCabe, indirectly involved in the whole-of-government assault on parental rights in Loudoun County,” said Will Scolinos.

Jussie Smollett State’s Attorney Kim Foxx no longer authorized to practice law in Illinois

December 17, 2024

The outgoing top prosecutor in Illinois reportedly failed “compliance” and is no longer authorized to practice law.

Former Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx famously handled the case of actor Jussie Smollett after he staged an attack against himself. Her term ended on December 1, but she reportedly did not complete mandatory continuing education requirements.

A search for the progressive’s name on the Illinois Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission website shows that Foxx is “unauthorized to practice law as [the] attorney has not demonstrated required MCLE [Minimum Continuing Legal Education] compliance.”

Argentinian President Javier Milei plans to attend Trump inauguration

By Fin Gómez December 17, 2024 / 10:49 AM EST / CBS News

Argentina's President Javier Milei plans to attend President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration in January, a spokesperson for Milei confirmed Tuesday.

A spokesperson for the Trump transition team did not reply to a request for comment.

Milei, a Trump acolyte who was elected last year and describes himself as an "anarcho-capitalist," on Monday posted on X a link to a news report and wrote "Make Argentina Great Again Make America Great Again," adding a handshake emoji between U.S. and Argentine flag emojis.

Bloomberg News was first to report on Milei attending the inaugural, citing an Argentine government spokesperson.

Milei is the first world leader expected to be in Washington for the Jan. 20 event, though arrangements are underway for others to join. CBS News reported last week that Chinese President Xi Jinping, whom Trump personally invited to the inauguration, was unlikely to attend, according to multiple sources.

Trump confirmed Monday that he has exchanged letters with Xi and would "love to have him [at the inauguration], but there's been nothing much discussed" in terms of whether he'll accept the invite.

Trump added that he has fielded calls from more than 100 world leaders since winning the electionand, initially when asked, he said that he had not invited Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. However, "if he'd like to come, I'd like to have him," Trump said.

State Department records dating back to 1874 show that no world leader has attended an American transfer-of-power ceremony. Traditionally, foreign ambassadors and their spouses represent their governments at the quadrennial event.

Milei met with Trump at Mar-a-Lago shortly after the November election.

Nigel Farage and his party treasurer have met with Elon Musk at Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort for the first time since rumours surfaced of a multi-million donation from the tech tycoon.

The Reform UK leader and Nick Candy, the billionaire husband of singer Holly Valance who will take up the fundraising role for Mr Farage's party in the new year, met on Monday 16 December, the party said.

The meeting comes following reports that Mr Musk was considering donating £78m to Mr Farage - an ally of Mr Trump - as a "f*** you Starmer payment".

Later Mr Farage tweeted he had also met JD Vance, who is set to become vice president.

The Times reported last month that if Mr Musk does decide to make the donation, he would do so through the British arm of his social media firm X, formerly Twitter, to circumvent UK rules that prevent foreign donations to a political party.

Congressman Mike McCaul revealed former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's stilettos were likely to blame for her fall in Europe which resulted in hip replacement surgery.

The Texas lawmaker was with the 84-year-old California Democrat during the European trip when she took a nasty tumble.

'I was right next to her. She likes to wear high heels, very high,' McCaul recalled.

'She was on one of her last steps on this marble staircase. It didn't have a railing, and she lost her footing and fell to the ground,' he said.

McCaul recounted how he helped pick her up right after the fall, and they took a picture together.

'You could see me holding her up by her hand, and then very soon thereafter a vehicle showed up, and she was taken to the hospital,' he said.

Pelosi's spokesperson released a statement over the weekend that she had a successful hip replacement surgery and thanked the medical professionals in both Germany and Luxembourg.

'Total dumpster fire': Republicans fume over speaker's spending plan days from shutdown deadline

Leadership released the bill Tuesday evening after promising it last weekend.

ByJohn Parkinson and Lauren Peller

December 17, 2024, 7:33 PM

Congressional leaders on Tuesday evening finally released a short-term government funding bill to avert a shutdown at the end of this week. The measure will fund the government through March 14, 2025, at current spending levels. The measure also includes $100.4 billion for disaster relief and an additional $10 billion in economic assistance for farmers.

Republican leadership could hold a vote as soon as Wednesday but it’s more likely to occur on Thursday.

Among provisions in short-term spending bill:

Reauthorization the Department of Homeland Security's unmanned aircraft systems program, which would allow for coordination among all Homeland Security agencies to address and counter the potential threats from drones.

A one-year extension of the Farm Bill.

It extends several expiring health care programs, including telehealth programs.

It grants Washington, D.C., control of Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium, paving the way for the NFL's Commanders to move from Maryland to D.C.

A provision for the government to cover 100% of rebuilding the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, which collapsed when a container ship ran into it.

Restrictions on U.S. investment in China.

Republicans had initially promised to release bill text over the weekend with the aim of holding a vote early in the week, but outspoken criticism from within their ranks continually delayed negotiators from finalizing the legislation. While Speaker Mike Johnson expressed a preference to abide by waiting 72 hours after the bill text was posted to hold a vote, lawmakers are eager to get out of town for the holiday break, so it’s very likely he might not honor that rule.

George Stephanopoulos ‘apoplectic, humiliated’ over ABC News’ $16M defamation suit settlement with Trump

ABC News anchor George Stephanopoulos is “apoplectic” and “humiliated” by the network’s decision to pay $16 million to settle a defamation lawsuit brought by President-elect Donald Trump, The Post has learned.

Stephanopoulos, who claimed Trump had raped E. Jean Carroll during an interview with Republican lawmaker Nancy Mace, was particularly upset about being forced to apologize, a source with knowledge of the situation said.

Another source told The Post that “George is defiant.”

A third source said Stephanopoulos “is a very guarded person. His circle of trust is so small, and a lot of them don’t work [at ABC anymore].“

The first insider added that the host of “This Week” had recently signed a contract extension with Disney-owned ABC News — though the source did not disclose the terms of the deal.

The former Bill Clinton aide has kept a low profile since the settlement — a $15 million donation to a presidential foundation and museum for Trump and another $1 million for Trump’s attorney fees — was announced on Saturday.

He has deactivated his X account, where he had more than 2.3 million followers.

Some ABC News staffers fumed at management for keeping a tight lid on coverage of the settlement, the first source said.

It was “front page news everywhere yet ABC doesn’t report on itself,” the source lamented.

Three sources told The Post that morale is down after a series of layoffs in all departments..

The settlement “is another gut punch,” one of the people said. “It’s sheer level embarrassment. People are furious.”

The settlement was announced just a day after a judge ruled that Stephanopoulos and Trump had to sit for depositions in the case. The depositions were scheduled for this week.

“This wasn’t a news division decision, it was a company decision,” one of the sources speculated, adding: “They likely didn’t want to go through discovery, when you search all the documents and all the emails and find everything that’s said, and turn it over to the other side.”

A source with knowledge of the situation told The Post that the $16 million payout is coming from the network’s insurance.

ABC News declined to comment.

Stephanopoulos did not return multiple requests for comment.

Trump filed the defamation lawsuit against ABC News and Stephanopoulos after the newscaster incorrectly noted that the former president “has been found liable for rape by a jury.”

The network and Stephanopoulos released a joint statement on Saturday,

“ABC News and George Stephanopoulos regret statements regarding President Donald J. Trump made during an interview by George Stephanopoulos with Rep. Nancy Mace on ABC’s This Week on March 10, 2024,” the statement said.

Last year, a Manhattan jury hearing the civil case brought by Carroll, who has alleged she was raped by Trump decades ago, found the Republican liable for sexual battery and defamation — but not rape.

In a sign that Disney is looking for a reset with the president-elect, Debra OConnell, who oversees ABC News, paid a visit to Mar-a-Lago to meet with Trump, according to Puck News.

Industry insiders speculated that Disney CEO Bob Iger wanted to put the legal matter to rest before Trump took office because he was fearful it would affect other departments in the company’s portfolio that are subject to government regulation.

Iger is also said to be mindful of the reputational damage that Disney absorbed from its years-long, protracted fight with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis over the “Don’t Say Gay” legislation that the Mouse House publicly lobbied against — to no avail.

The Disney boss may also wish to alter the perception that ABC News has an axe to grind with the incoming president — particularly given the fact that one of his top deputies, Disney Entertainment co-chair Dana Walden, has maintained a decades-long friendship with Vice President Kamala Harris.

The Trump camp was irked by ABC News moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis for their frequent fact-checking of the president-elect during the Sept. 10 presidential debate.

Nancy Pelosi fell in her ‘very high’ heels, then powered through pain for a photo with a broken hip, GOP Rep. McCaul says

By Published Dec. 17, 2024, 7:18

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was donning “very high” heels when she broke her hip in a nasty fall on marble steps at a World War II battlefield site in Luxembourg last Friday — then ostensibly powered through the pain to pose for a group photo.

House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Michael McCaul (R-Texas), who helped Pelosi to her feet after the tumble at Grand Ducal Palace, opened up on Tuesday about how the 84-year-old Democrat got injured during the bipartisan trip.

“I was right next to her. She likes to wear high heels — very high. She was on one of her last steps on this marble staircase that didn’t have a railing and she lost her footing and fell to the ground,” McCaul, 62, told reporters.

“I immediately helped pick her up. And we took a picture of that. You can see me holding her up by her handand then very soon thereafter, a vehicle showed up and took her to the hospital.”

Eagle-eyed observers had previously taken note of Pelosi’s seemingly firm grip on McCaul’s hand in the delegation photo on the stairwell at the palace.

Pelosi had been part of a bipartisan delegation to mark the 80th anniversary of the Battle of the Bulge in the tiny Western European country nestled between France, Germany and Belgium.

In the image, she had her left hand over her hip and some speculated that she looked to be masking discomfort.

After that photo was snapped, Pelosi was whisked away from Luxembourg to the Landstuhl Regional Medical Center, which is near the US Ramstein Air Base in Germany, McCaul confirmed.

Pelosi has since undergone hip replacement surgery, according to her spokesperson.

“She’s 84, but when I talked to her on the phone, she had a lot of energy. Very spunky. She wants to get out of there, she wants to fly back home to the United States,” McCaul added. “Overall, she’s in good spirits.” (McCaul was drinking with Pelosi, because they are both drunks, but he wore flat shoes. He says, "she should have known better! Kek)

The Post reached out to a Pelosi spokesperson for confirmation that she stood up for the photo after breaking her hip.

Due to term limits, McCaul is set to cede his chairmanship of the House Foreign Affairs Committee to Rep. Brian Mast (R-Fla.), who will take over in the next Congress, which gets sworn in next month.

Pelosi is in her 19th term in the House of Representatives. Despite passing the leadership baton onto House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries over two years ago, she still has pronounced influence within the party.

The San Francisco Democrat is widely speculated to have played a key role in fomenting the pressure campaign against President Biden to drop out of the 2024 race. The two went months without speaking after the mutiny.

More recently, Pelosi reportedly whipped members against Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s (D-NY) bid to serve as the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, having backed Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-Va.) for that role instead.

Pelosi is the fifth oldest member of the lower chamber. Grace Napolitano (D-Calif.) is the oldest at 88.

‘Big mouth’ Rahm Emanuel exploring a run for president

By Cindy Adams

Published Dec. 17, 2024, 8:16 p.m. ET

(Rahman Noodles hopes we all forget he worked for Obama==

Gossip! On upcoming boring movies

Chicago politician with a deep dish of ambitions

Rahm Emanuel. Age 65. Former congressman. Former chief of staff to Obama. Former mayor of Chicago.

Soon-to-be former ambassador to Japan. Current bigmouth everywhere like still being brother to LA’s biggest talent operator of entertainment and media agency Endeavor.Now without some temporary title he and his profanity-filled rants and usually extended middle finger are currently actively exploring running for president.

Great idea.

May he now be as successful as he was at helping Joe Biden’s limp through the White House.

We’re a great civilization. Our courts are backed up so far that we’re still hunting witnesses who saw George Washington knock off that cherry tree.

Ongoing lawsuit in Supreme Court, State of New York, County of New York. Involving Chris Cuomo, CNN and arbitration.

He said the arbitrator had some undisclosed conflict of interest.

Court said no. He appealed.

CNN terminated this “ratings leader” December 2021 “for assisting brother, Gov. Andrew Cuomo, in political crises,” Dear brother wants $125 million in damages.

But, discovering his arbitrator had a prior CNN relationship, Chris wants the pending arbitration and arbitrator tossed on grounds that he had a previously undisclosed conflict of interest.

So one brother’s fighting the New York Supreme Court, the other brother’s fighting the New York Supreme Mayor. The brothers are busy.

Yule be seeing him

Wait.

I’m not useless.

I have more.

Ambling about — outside St. Pat’s — in a giant Santa-like red open coat plus chunky belly and chunky behind plus ’90s-style Christmas movie-type winter snow hat while making yetanother 3,000th Christmas movie right now — was California’s once-upon-a-time Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Females followed him as he lumbered about.

And what was Arnie doing whilst lumbering about?

Powdering his face.

Making the man

Everybody’s already schlepping around for Christmas.Music man Pharrell Williams is out beating the drums. He wants gold for his Lego doc “Piece by Piece.”

He says: “I played with Legos as a kid.” As an adult, however, he was twice nominated for an Oscar.

Never got one.

That aggravation is almost enough to make him stop looking at his ­diamond-encrusted Rolex.

Staking claim

More. R-rated vampire flick “Nosferatu.”

Americans are optimistic about Trump’s second term, poll shows

A poll from Monmouth University found that 53% of the public feels optimistic about the policies Mr. Trump has said he will pursue. While these numbers are similar to a poll taken ahead of the start of his first term in 2017, the support from his base has increased. While 53% of Republicans said they were very optimistic about his plans in 2017, 76% say the same now.

“Republicans are even more enthusiastic about a second Trump term than they were the first time around. They are particularly looking forward to him following through on the plans he promised,” said Patrick Murray, director of the independent Monmouth University Polling Institute.

Some 66% of the public supports Mr. Trump’s policy idea of no taxes on tips, overtime and Social Security. Just under half, 49%, support mass deportations of illegal immigrants. Americans are split, 42% to 40%, about putting tariffs on goods from other countries.

WASHINGTON: "The Federal Bureau of Prisons said Rayful Edmond III, a prominent drug kingpin back in the 1980s in D.C., died Tuesday. According to a report from the Washington Post, Edmond, 60, died suddenly at a halfway house in Florida. Edmond, dubbed the “king of cocaine,” had an “army of dealers and mountain of profits,” making him a large figure in D.C.’s drug scene. He was arrested back in April 1989 and was sentenced to life in prison, but after becoming an informant he was set to have been released late next year, according to the Washington Post.

No cause of death has been released yet."

Japan’s Honda and Nissan to reportedly begin merger talks

-Nissan and Honda plan to enter into negotiations for a merger to better compete in the rapidly changing automotive industry, the Nikkei newspaper reported Tuesday.

-Honda and Nissan are considering operating under a holding company, and soon will sign a memorandum of understanding, according to the report.

DETROIT — Japanese automakers Nissan Motor and Honda Motor reportedly plan to enter into negotiations for a merger to better compete in the rapidly changing global automotive industry, the Nikkei newspaper reported Tuesday.

Honda and Nissan are considering operating under a holding company, and soon will sign a memorandum of understanding, according to the report. They also look to eventually bring Mitsubishi Motors, in which Nissan is the top shareholder with a 24% stake, under the holding company.

The combined Nissan-Honda-Mitsubishi enterprise would equate to more than 8 million vehicle sales annually, according to Nikkei. That would place the company among the world’s largest automakers, but still below fellow Japanese automaker Toyota Motor, at 11.2 million in 2023, as well as German automaker Volkswagen, which last year reported sales of 9.2 million vehicles.

In similar statements, Honda and Nissan neither confirmed nor denied the report: “The reported content was not released by our company,” Honda said. “As announced in March of this year, Honda and Nissan are exploring various possibilities for future collaboration, leveraging each other’s strengths. We will inform our stakeholders of any updates at an appropriate time.”

The merger report follows the two Japanese automakers entering into a strategic partnership earlier this year on shared automotive components and software.

Such a tie-up would be the largest automotive industry merger since Fiat Chrysler joined with France-based PSA Groupe to form Stellantis

in January 2021.

Automotive consultants and other experts have recently been calling for an increase in mergers and acquisitions to share costs and better compete against rapidly expanding Chinese automakers as well as U.S. all-electric vehicle leader Tesla.

U.S.-traded shares of Honda closed up about 1% on Tuesday. Over-the-counter shares of Nissan, which is in the middle of a restructuring, jumped more than 11%.

AOC loses 131-84 to Gerry Connolly in battle to lead House Oversight

Progressive Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., was defeated in her bid to be the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, losing to Rep. Gerry Connolly of Virginia.

Connolly, 74, bested the 35-year-old Ocasio-Cortez with 131 to 84 votes in what is seen as a blow for progressives who backed Ocasio-Cortez, a member of the progressive "Squad."

"I thank my colleagues for their support and the confidence they’ve placed in me to lead House Democrats on the Oversight Committee," Connolly said in a statement after being elected by the House Democratic Caucus.

Connolly called out "the Republican playbook," in which he accused Republicans of using "debunked conspiracy theories" and enabling "the worst abuses of the Trump Administration."

"This will be trench warfare." Connolly said. "Now is not the time to be timid. I promise the American people that our Committee Democrats will be a beacon of truth and prepared from day one to counter Republican gaslighting."

When Fox News Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram asked Connolly if he was up for a potential fight against the Trump administration, Connolly said he was "raring to go."

"I did it before for four years, and bested them on a number of occasions, and I'm raring to go again," he said.

Connolly said that President-elect Trump "may feel more emboldened" after his reelection victory, though "that may also make him more reckless."

"There is a law in this land, and we're going to make sure it's enforced," Connolly said.

In his written statement, Connolly said Democrats will be "disciplined" and "laser focused on getting results on the kitchen table issues that are affecting the American people the most."

"We will stand up for our democracy and for truth," the statement said. "And we will protect the tremendous and historic progress we have made as House Democrats."

14 Venezuelan gang members arrested in Aurora home invasion

Aurora Police Dept

@AuroraPD

#APDAlert: Fourteen people have been detained by Aurora police after officers responded to a report of a home invasion with weapons at The Edge at Lowry Apartments.

Just before 2:30 a.m., Aurora police patrol officers responded to a report of an armed home invasion involving a stabbing and kidnapping at an apartment in the 1200 block of Dallas Street. The preliminary investigation suggests several suspects entered an apartment occupied by two people. The suspects moved the victims to another apartment on the property, where they were threatened and bound. An adult male sustained a non-life-threatening stab wound during the incident.

After some time, the victims were released by the suspects, at which point they called 911. Multiple Aurora police patrol units responded to the scene. Fourteen people have been detained and are being questioned by investigators.

We are still at the very early stages of the investigation. We will provide updates as more information becomes available.

No Western troops in Ukraine without Russian approval – Germany

NATO boots on the ground would be impossible without Moscow’s consent, Boris Pistorius has said

Both Moscow and Kiev would need to be on board with any initiative involving the deployment of Western peacekeeping troops in Ukraine, German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius has said.

Some EU leaders have raised the possibility of a Western peacekeeping force in Ukraine if a ceasefire is reached. Donald Trump, set to be sworn in as US president next month, recently stated that he wants to bring both Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukraine’s Vladimir Zelensky to the negotiating table.

Pistorius stressed that any discussion of European troop presence in the conflict is premature, speaking at a press conference in Berlin on Monday.

GAO Report Reveals Massive Waste in Navy’s $3.7B Cruiser Modernization Program

Mike Schuler December 17, 2024

The U.S. Navy’s ambitious modernization program for its Ticonderoga-class guided-missile cruisers has largely failed to meet its objectives, resulting in billions in wasted taxpayer dollars, according to a new Government Accountability Office (GAO) report.

Since 2015, the Navy has invested approximately $3.7 billion in modernizing seven cruisers, but the program’s outcomes have fallen dramatically short of expectations. Of these vessels, only three will complete the modernization process, with none achieving the intended five-year service life extension.

“The Navy wasted $1.84 billion modernizing four cruisers that have now been divested prior to deploying,” states the GAO report. The program has been particularly marred by a case involving the USS Vicksburg, where contractors performed substandard work on the vessel’s sonar dome, a crucial component for anti-submarine warfare capabilities.

The report joins other recent GAO assessments critical of Navy and Coast Guard modernization and expansion programs.

According to the GAO, the root of these issues lies in inadequate planning, which led to an overwhelming 9,000 contract changes and subsequent cost overruns. Compounding these problems, the Navy’s leadership made controversial decisions that weakened quality control measures. In 2018, they restricted the ability to impose monetary penalties on contractors, and by 2020, they had reduced vital inspections by nearly 50 percent.

The Navy contracts with private shipyards to maintain and modernize its non-nuclear surface ships.

The modernization program’s troubled history dates back to 2012-2013 when Congress rejected the Navy’s initial proposal to retire several cruisers due to budget constraints. Instead, Congress provided funding for modernization, aiming to extend the service life of 11 cruisers by five years while upgrading their combat capabilities.

In response to these findings, the GAO has issued six recommendations, focusing on the need for the Navy to analyze the root causes of unplanned work and implement stronger quality assurance measures. The Navy has agreed to all recommendations, though the impact of these failures on naval readiness and taxpayer resources remains a significant concern.

Dark fleet still growing by 10 tankers a month

Sam Chambers December 17, 2024

Broker BRS has provided an update of the size of what it terms as the grey tanker fleet, ships suspected of carrying oil linked to Iran, Venezuela, Syria, North Korea or Russia.

Despite slowing, the grey fleet is still growing by around 10 tankers a month, according to BRS, and now stands at a total of 850 ships, representing 9.1% of the total tanker fleet. For ships of 34,000 dwt and above, the total stands at 764 tankers, equating to what BRS stated in a markets update was an “extraordinary” 13.8% of the global 34,000 dwt or above fleet.

So far this year only four deepsea tankers have been demolished, which should make 2024 the lowest year for tanker scrapping since at least 1990, according to BRS, who attributed this dearth of demo candidates largely down to the fact grey fleet tankers cannot be demolished easily.

“Cash buyers who purchase tankers to be demolished in breakers’ yards on the Indian subcontinent appear reluctant to purchase tankers from the grey fleet,” BRS noted.

“All told, and even considering today’s lacklustre crude and product tanker markets, we reiterate our view that any clumsy regulation of the grey tanker fleet remains the most significant upside grey swan for tanker markets over the coming year,” BRS suggested, arguing that a significant pollution incident or even from a humanitarian situation such as grey fleet tankers being abandoned if they cannot be disposed of otherwise could lead to a greater crackdown on the shadow fleet.

“Therefore, as a new year turns, and as the grey fleet ages and continues to expand unabated without an appropriate release valve, it appears evident that the risk from the grey fleet is continuing to rise which, in turn, makes its eventual regulation even likelier,” BRS predicted.

Splash reported yesterday on accidents involving two laden Russian product tankers (pictured) – both in excess of 50 years old – leading to significant spills in and around the Kerch Strait.

Norway to Provide $242 Million to Strengthen Ukrainian Navy

Reuters December 16, 2024

COPENHAGEN, Dec 16 (Reuters) – Norway said on Monday it would provide 2.7 billion crowns ($242 million) to strengthen the Ukrainian navy and help it deter Russian naval forces in the Black Sea.

Much of the funding will go towards innovation and autonomy under the Maritime Capability Coalition, which Norway and Britain launched last year to make Ukraine’s navy more compatible with Western allies, the government said.

“It is essential to protect the Ukrainian population and Ukrainian infrastructure from attacks by Russia’s Black Sea Fleet,” Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Stoere said in a statement.

“It is also important to protect exports by sea of grain and other products, which generate crucial revenues for Ukraine,” he added.

The support includes donations from the Norwegian Armed Forces as well as military equipment to be procured from industry for subsequent donation.

The funding will also be used for mine clearance operations and the training of Ukrainian soldiers, the government said.

“The systems we are providing will enhance the ability of Ukrainian forces to detect and defuse mines along their coastline,” Defence Minister Bjoern Arild Gram said in the statement.

Amazon faces US strike threat ahead of Christmas

João da Silva Business reporter 18 December 2024

Amazon workers in the US could go on strike ahead of Christmas, after members of the Teamsters union voted to support industrial action.

The workers say the online retail giant has refused to recognise their union and ignored a 15 December deadline to hold talks over their contract.

Amazon's facilities in Southern California, New York and Illinois could be affected, according to a Teamsters statement.

"The corporate elitists who run Amazon are leaving workers with no choice," said Teamsters General President Sean M O'Brien.

"Amazon must be held accountable to workers and consumers alike. If workers are forced onto the picket line, Amazon will be striking itself," he added.

The union said it represents thousands of workers at 10 Amazon facilities across the US.

But an Amazon spokesperson, Eileen Hards, said the union "has continued to intentionally mislead the public – claiming that they represent 'thousands of Amazon employees and drivers'. They don't".

"The Teamsters have actively threatened, intimidated, and attempted to coerce Amazon employees and third-party drivers to join them, which is illegal", she added.

Earlier this week, a congressional investigation concluded that the e-commerce giant pushes its US warehouse workers to fulfill orders at speeds that could cause high rates of injury.

The investigation led by Democrat senator Bernie Sanders also said the company had refused to introduce changes to improve safety because of concerns about its profits.

Amazon said the report was "wrong on the facts", and featured "selective, outdated information that lacks context and isn't grounded in reality".

The company, which employs roughly 800,000 people in the US, has faced accusations about unsafe conditions at its warehouses for years.

Those concerns ramped up during the Covid pandemic, when e-commerce exploded, leading to protests by its workers around the world.

Amid the controversy, founder Jeff Bezos said the company needed to do better by its employees.

Senator Sanders, who is known for his pro-worker stance, launched an investigation into Amazon's practices in June 2023. Senate staffers conducted 135 interviews and reviewed more than 1,000 documents.

Their analysis of public records found that warehouses operated by Amazon recorded over 30% more injuries than the warehousing industry average in 2023.

Florida Mom Charged with Terrorism for Angry Comment to Blue Cross After Her Claim Was Denied

Florida: Briana Boston. a mother of 3 children, who police say was upset over a denied insurance claim, was arrested after police say she made threats against Blue Cross Blue Shield. The Lakeland Police Department said, in a recorded call with Blue Cross Blue Shield, Briana Boston was heard saying, ‘Delay, deny, depose. You people are next.’ The phrase began trending last week after those words were found on shell casings from bullets used to kill UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in New York City.

Mrs. Boston is charged with a second degree felony of a written threat to kill or injure, or conduct a mass shooting, or an act of terrorism. This is a serious charge, and she now faces up to 15 years in prison. Her bail was set at $100,000 and she is also under house arrest with GPS monitoring.

She is getting support from the public on GoFundMe as Americans are frustrated with health insurance and are critical of the overzealous police, prosecutor and judge working on behalf of the medical establishment.

Senate Democrats Propose Constitutional Amendment To Abolish Electoral College

Authored by Sam Dorman via The Epoch Times,

Senate Democrats proposed a constitutional amendment on Dec. 16 that would abolish the Electoral College and ensure the country’s presidential elections were determined by the popular vote.

“It is time to retire this 18th-century invention that disenfranchises millions of Americans,” Senate Judiciary Chairman Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) said in a press release.

He and Sens. Brian Schatz (D-Hawaii) and Peter Welch (D-Vt.) proposed the legislation after another proposal emerged in the House last week.

“No one’s vote should count for more based on where they live,“ Schatz said in the press release. ”The Electoral College is outdated and it’s undemocratic. It’s time to end it.”

19 Suspects Detained After Stabbing at Colorado Apartment Complex Trump Warned About

Colorado: Nineteen suspects were detained by Aurora police after officers responded to an armed home invasion in which the victims were moved and bound [kidnapped], and the male victim suffered a non-lethal stab wound. This happened at The Edge at Lowry Apartments, the same apartment complex where a viral video surfaced earlier this year showing suspects terrorizing residents with weapons. It was reported that migrant tenants were living in the apartment complex that is now set to be shut down due to complaints of lack of utilities and pest infestation. If the Edge at Lowry Apartments shut down, 200 families will be affected and could become homeless.

The media, the Aurora Police Department and even Colorado Governor Jared Polis have denied and downplayed the Venezuelan gang problem. Aurora City Council Member Danielle Jurinsky, who has been criticized for condemong the takeover of three apartments by the Tren de Aragua gang, said that she has yet to hear from any elected state officials on the matter, noting that most are Democrats, the party of the open border. President-elect Trump has called his plan to deport dangerous criminal illegal aliens first from our country ‘Operation Aurora’.

Committee Releases Bill to Continue Current Funding and Provide Much-Needed Disaster Relief

December 17, 2024

Press Release

Washington, D.C. – Today, the House Appropriations Committee released H.R. 10445, the Further Continuing Appropriations and Disaster Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2025. The bill is expected to be considered on the House floor this week.

Chairman Tom Cole (R-OK) said, “The American people gave Congress a clear mandate: secure the border, lower costs, and ensure responsible governance. In a matter of weeks, Republicans will have the opportunity to chart a fiscally responsible path forward and advance our American First agenda. While a continuing resolution is not ideal, this strategy ensures President Trump has a voice in shaping the final FY25 bills. Importantly, it averts a costly government shutdown that would only serve to handcuff the start of his new administration.

"At the same time, we cannot ignore the devastation caused by natural disasters across the nation. Entire communities have been left in ruins, struggling to recover. Yet, in true American spirit, neighbors came together to support one another in their time of need - now is the time for help to arrive from the federal level. This bill provides crucial relief for Americans recovering from these disasters, including those in my home state of Oklahoma, and also generates economic benefits for the nation. We have a responsibility to help our fellow citizens rebuild and restore, and this legislation demonstrates shared resilience and unity in the face of tragedy."

Key Takeaways

Includes $110 billion in disaster assistance for relief efforts in North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Oklahoma, and Western region, among others.

Includes only what is necessary to address recovery efforts.

Targets resources toward rural communities, particularly farmers and ranchers facing both a tough farm economy and the aftermath of multiple disasters.

Maintains key policy riders such as pro-life and Second Amendment protections.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Donald J. Trump administration turncoat Alyssa Farah Griffin is accused of serving as the key “go-between” for former Congresswoman Liz Cheney and Cassidy Hutchinson, a crucial but unreliable witness for the corrupt January 6 Committee. A new congressional interim report accuses Cheney of unlawfully tampering with Hutchinson and recommends that the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) investigate the matter.

The pressure being applied to Griffin on social media draws on texts first uncovered by the Committee on House Administration’s Subcommittee on Oversight in October. They show that, in the months leading up to Hutchinson’s highly publicized testimony on January 6, Cheney engaged in direct and indirect communications with Hutchinson, facilitated by Griffin.

On April 26, 2022, Hutchinson met with Griffin at her Georgetown home, where she disclosed information pertinent to the January 6 Committee’s investigation. Griffin then agreed to liaise with Cheney. Text messages, believed to be from the encrypted app Signal, reveal that Cheney was aware that direct communication with Hutchinson, bypassing her attorney, was ethically dubious.

For nearly a month, Griffin served as an intermediary. She assisted in arranging Hutchinson’s third interview without informing her attorney. During this period, Griffin and Hutchinson also concocted a pretext for Hutchinson’s need for the third interview, which Cheney led on May 17, 2022. In this session, Hutchinson introduced several new, uncorroborated narratives aligned with the committee’s portrayal of Trump as culpable for the January 6 riot.

Post-interview, Hutchinson contacted Cheney directly, circumventing her legal counsel. Subsequently, Cheney arranged for Hutchinson to receive new legal counsel from Alston & Bird, who agreed to represent her pro bono.

The House Administration Oversight Subcommittee now believes “numerous federal laws were likely broken by Liz Cheney” during this “secret communication with a witness” and that Hutchinson may have committed perjury at Cheney’s behest.

In the face of critical legacy media reports and opposition on Capitol Hill, President-elect Donald Trump’s transition team is working to forge a more direct line of communication with the American people through a playbook-style newsletter.

The Trump transition is launching a newsletter on Tuesday with the goal of establishing “transparent communication” with the public on Trump’s future policies and plans, The Daily Wire has exclusively learned. That newsletter is specifically aimed at Americans looking for real information about the transition process, who are frustrated with the mainstream media’s aggressively critical reporting on Trump.

“For far too long, the American people have been kept in the dark by bureaucrats and elites in Washington, DC,” Trump spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt told The Daily Wire. “The Trump-Vance Transition newsletter will deliver top news, updates on the transition process, details on President Trump’s brilliant Cabinet picks, and video highlights.”

The first transition newsletter, obtained ahead of publication by The Daily Wire, highlights the work of news outlets covering stories of interest to the Trump transition team. For example, Tuesday’s newsletter cites reporting from The Daily Wire, Fox News, and The Washington Times, as well as an op-ed on Tulsi Gabbard in National Review.

The newsletter will include top news stories about the president-elect and his cabinet picks, as well as their road to confirmation, video highlights, and any White House transition updates that team Trump thinks the public should know about. For example, Tuesday’s first edition of the “Road to 47” newsletter will highlight that the CEO of SoftBank announced a $100 billion investment into the U.S. economy, citing confidence in the economy due to Trump’s 2024 victory.

Chinese, Indian officials in talks to ease dispute over Himalayan border area

Dec 18th

BEIJING (Reuters) - China and India took a further step towards easing their long-running border dispute on Wednesday, with senior officials holding formal talks for the first time in five years and committing to finding mutually-acceptable solutions.

The meeting in Beijing between Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi and India's National Security Advisor Ajit Doval followed a milestone pact two months ago on lowering military tensions at a contested part of their border.

Wang called on the two sides to engage in candid communication, enhance mutual trust and promote collaboration, a Chinese foreign ministry statement said.

The two officials reaffirmed both sides' commitment to seek a package of solutions to the dispute that was fair and acceptable for both, the ministry said.

"YELLOWSTONING" enters the lexicon.

Jack Posobiec on a new form of brainwashing or gaslighting: "Yellowstoning."

The much-anticipated finale of Yellowstone has left many fans, especially those with conservative leanings, scratching their heads in disbelief. The series, known for its staunch portrayal of the Dutton family's relentless battle to protect their ancestral land, took an unexpected turn by having the Duttons sell their ranch back to the a Native American tribe. This plot twist isn't just a narrative decision; it's a cultural statement that directly opposes the spirit of the show, embodying the very essence of what I had called "Yellowstoning."

Yellowstoning: A Media Tactic Unveiled

My thesis on "Yellowstoning" from long before the finale aired outlines a subtle strategy where Hollywood uses aesthetics and beloved actors to draw in conservative audiences, only to serve them progressive messages under the guise of entertainment. Here's how it played out:

Aesthetics and Legacy Actors: Yellowstone attracted viewers with its breathtaking landscapes, traditional cowboy ethos, and a cast including legacy actors like Kevin Costner, whose presence harkens back to an era of simpler, more straightforward American storytelling. This was the bait.

The Woke Message: The finale, however, delivered the hook. By having the Duttons relinquish their land, the show not only subverted its central conflict but also pushed an agenda where land, symbolizing heritage and legacy, is returned to the original inhabitants, a narrative that is a clear critique of historical land acquisition and a nod to modern land rights activism.

The Metaphor for Undermining Western Civilization

This decision in the storyline can be seen as a metaphor for the broader cultural battle over the values and narratives of Western Civilization:

Legacy vs. Change: The Dutton family stood as a symbol of legacy, hard work, and the fight to maintain what one has built over generations. Their surrender of the ranch symbolizes a capitulation to modern ideologies that question the legitimacy of historical claims to land and power.

Cultural Erosion: Just as the Duttons' story ends with their land being dismantled and their gravestones mocked, it can be interpreted as a broader allegory for the perceived erosion of traditional American values and the dismantling of historical narratives by contemporary cultural movements.

The Message: By framing the end of the Dutton saga this way, the series suggests that the fight for one's heritage and land might be futile or even morally wrong in the face of historical reevaluation. It's a narrative that challenges the viewer to reconsider the ethics of land ownership and cultural dominance, themes deeply intertwined with debates on Western Civilization's past and present.

In essence, Yellowstone's finale didn't just conclude a story; it epitomized "Yellowstoning" by leading its conservative audience down a path where the aesthetics of tradition and loyalty were used to introduce and perhaps normalize progressive ideals. This twist was not just a plot development; it was a cultural statement, one that leaves fans pondering whether the entertainment they love is subtly undermining the very values it once seemed to champion.

Federal Judge Violates Judicial Code While Lecturing Justice Alito on Ethics in New York Times Essay, Forced to Issue Apology for Misconduct

By Jim Hᴏft Dec. 18, 2024 8:30

Senior U.S. District Judge Michael Ponsor of Massachusetts openly criticized Justice Samuel Alito’s ethics in a New York Times guest essay, violating the sacred trust of impartiality expected from the judiciary.

The conservative advocacy group, the Article III Project, filed a formal complaint against Ponsor, leading to a misconduct finding and a public apology from the senior judge.

The complaint, filed in May 2024, stemmed from an op-ed authored by Judge Ponsor and published in The New York Times.

The article discusses the controversy surrounding Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito’s display of an upside-down American flag and an “Appeal to Heaven” flag at his properties, which some media outlets tied to Trump supporters during the events of January 6, 2021. Ponsor declared the flags as symbols of partisanship and questioned Alito’s ethical judgment.

Despite lacking direct evidence of ethical violations or pending cases involving theflags, Ponsor’s essay implied that Alito’s actions warranted recusal from cases related to January 6, casting doubt on the Supreme Court justice’s impartiality.

“To me, the flag issue is much simpler. The fact is that, regardless of its legality, displaying the flag in that way, at that time, shouldn’t have happened.To put it bluntly, any judge with reasonable ethical instincts would have realized immediately that flying the flag then and in that way was improper. And dumb,” Ponsor wrote in the essay.

“The same goes for the flying of an “Appeal to Heaven” flag at Justice Alito’s vacation house along the New Jersey shore. Like the upside-down flag, this flag is viewed by a great many people as a banner of allegiance on partisan issues that are or could be before the court.”

Chief Judge Albert Diaz of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit issued a scathing rebuke of Ponsor’s actions.

“The essay expressed personal opinions on controversial public issues and criticized the ethics of a sitting Supreme Court justice.Such comments diminish the public confidence in the integrity and independence of the federal judiciary in violation of Canons 1 and 2A.” said Diaz in the filed reply.

“Viewed in the timeframe during which the essay was published, including the substantial press coverage detailing the calls for Justice Alito’s recusals from the then-pending January 6 cases, it would be reasonable for a member of the public to perceive the essay as a commentary on partisan issues and as a call for Justice Alito’s recusal,” Diaz added.

Chief Judge Diaz also detailed the process of addressing the complaint and Ponsor’s cooperation.

“I communicated with Judge Ponsor regarding this matter to obtain his response to the complaint and to provide him with an objective view of his essay and its ethical implications,” Judge Diaz said.

“Judge Ponsor was at all times respectful of the judicial complaint process, responsive to the concerns raised by his essay, and reflective indrafting the attached letter in which he publicly acknowledges and apologizes for his violations of the Code of Conduct. I am satisfied that Judge Ponsor’s public letter of apology constitutes voluntary corrective action sufficient to allow for the conclusion of the complaint under 28 U.S.C. § 352(b)(2) and Judicial-Conduct Rule 11(d).”

Read Judge Michael Ponsor’s apology:

“Thank you for your recent letter pointing out how my New York Times essay of May 24, 2024, violated the boundaries of our Code of Conduct.

With the benefit of an objective perspective, I realize now that my criticism of the ethical judgment of a Supreme Court Justice might have had the effect of undermining the public’s confidence in the integrity of the judicial system, in violation of Canon 2A of the Code. Beyond this, I also now see that the piece permitted the inference that I was commenting on matters that were pending before the Court in violation of Canon 3A(6). I particularly regret the fact that my essay might have been interpreted as a call for Justice Alito’s recusal from specific cases then under consideration.The fact that I did not have any particular case in mind when I drafted the piece does not reduce the gravity of my lapse.

Former Israeli Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon Accuses His Govt of Ethnic Cleansing in Gaza

Earlier this month, former Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon said that he will not apologize for his comments accusing Israel of carrying out “ethnic cleansing” in the northern Gaza Strip. When pressed, he denied that ethnic cleansing in Gaza was mass murder, but instead defined it as “evacuating a population from its homes, destroying their homes.” But he also said that government ministers speak about how “the Strip will be cleansed of Arabs.” And he recommended prison for far-right minister Bezalel Smotrich who he said “has no moral qualms about starving two million Gazans to death.”

Ya’alon, who served as a lawmaker in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud party and as defense minister under him, resigned in 2016, citing deep distrust in Netanyahu’s leadership, and has since become a staunch critic of the premier.

Canadian PM Justin Trudeau Heckled As Government Implodes over Proposed US Tariffs

Last month, Donald Trump posted that he plans to sign an executive order imposing a 25% tariff on all products coming into the United States from Canada and Mexico. Last week, Trump suggested that, in order to avoid tariffs, Canada could be annexed by the US and become our 51st state; Trump called Justin Trudeau ‘Governor’. About 77% of Canada’s exports go to the US; approximately 60% of US crude oil imports are from Canada, and 85% of US electricity imports as well. Tariffs could destroy Canada’s economy.

Prime Minister Trudeau is in a precarious position and was made even more vulnerable when his trusted deputy, Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland, went scorched earth in a Monday resignation letter. She warned against using tax breaks as a short-term gimmick to please voters and instead recommended maintaining reserves that may be needed for a coming tariff war.

NGC 660: Polar Ring Galaxy

What kind of strange galaxy is this? This rare structure is known as a polar ring galaxy, and it seems to have two different rings of stars. In this galaxy, NGC 660, one ring of bright stars, gas, and dark dust appears nearly vertical, while another similar but shorter ring runs diagonally from the upper left. How polar ring galaxies obtain their striking appearance remains a topic of research, but a leading theory holds that it is usually the result of two galaxies with different central ring planes colliding. NGC 660 spans about 50,000 light years and is located about 40 million light years away toward the constellation of the Fish (Pisces). The featured image was captured recently from Observatorio El Sauce in Chile.

Sols 4396-4397: Roving in a Martian Wonderland

Dec 17, 2024

Over the weekend Curiosity continued her trek around the northern end of Texoli butte, taking in the beautiful views in all directions.

Steep buttes reveal cross-sections through ancient sedimentary strata, while the blocks in our workspace contain nice layers and veins — a detailed record of past surface processes on Mars.

Sometimes we get so used to our normal routine of rover operations that I almost forget how incredible it is to be exploring ancient sedimentary rocks on another planet and seeing new data every day.

Curiosity certainly found a beautiful field site!

But the challenges are a good reminder of what it takes to safely explore Mars.

We had hoped that the weekend drive could be extended a little bit using a guarded driving mode (using auto navigation), but the drive stopped early during the guarded portion.

Because the drive stopped short, we did not have adequate imaging around all of the rover wheels to fully assess the terrain, which meant that unfortunately Curiosity did not pass the Slip Risk Assessment Process (SRAP) and we could not use the rover arm for contact science today.

The team quickly pivoted to remote sensing, knowing there will be other chances to use the instruments on the arm in upcoming plans.

Today’s two-sol plan includes targeted science and a drive on the first sol, followed by untargeted remote sensing on the second sol.

The Geology and Mineralogy Theme Group planned ChemCam LIBS and Mastcam on a target named “Avalon” to characterize a dark vein that crosscuts the bedrock in our workspace.

Then Curiosity will acquire two long-distance RMI mosaics to document the first glimpse of distant boxwork structures, and a view of the top of Mount Sharp from this perspective.

This Martian wonderland includes a lot of beautiful sedimentary structures and fractures, so the team planned Mastcam mosaics to assess a stratigraphic interval that may contain more climbing ripples, another mosaic to characterize the orientation of fractures, and a third mosaic to look at veins and sedimentary layers.

Then Curiosity will drive about 50 meters (about 164 feet) to the southwest, and will take post-drive imaging to prepare for planning on Wednesday.

The second sol is untargeted, so GEO added an autonomously selected ChemCam LIBS target.

The plan includes standard DAN and REMS environmental monitoring activities, plus a dust-devil movie and Navcam line-of-sight observation to assess atmospheric dust.

I was on shift as Long-Term Planner today, so in addition to thinking about today’s plan, we’re already looking ahead at the activities that the rover will conduct over the December holidays.

We’re gearing up to send Curiosity our Christmas wish list later this week, and feeling grateful for the gifts she has already sent us!

Cutting-Edge Satellite Tracks Lake Water Levels in Ohio River Basin

Dec 17, 2024

Data from the U.S.-European Surface Water and Ocean Topography mission gives researchers a detailed look at lakes and reservoirs in a U.S. watershed.

The Ohio River Basin stretches from Pennsylvania to Illinois and contains a system of reservoirs, lakes, and rivers that drains an area almost as large as France.

Researchers with the SWOT (Surface Water and Ocean Topography) mission, a collaboration between NASA and the French space agency CNES (Centre National d’Études Spatiales), now have a new tool for measuring water levels not only in this area, which is home to more than 25 million people, but in other watersheds around the world as well.

Since early 2023, SWOT has been measuring the height of nearly all water on Earth’s surface — including oceans, lakes, reservoirs, and rivers — covering nearly the entire globe at least once every 21 days.

The SWOT satellite also measures the horizontal extent of water in freshwater bodies. Earlier this year, the mission started making validated data publicly available.

“Having these two perspectives — water extent and levels — at the same time, along with detailed, frequent coverage over large areas, is unprecedented,” said Jida Wang, a hydrologist at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and a member of the SWOT science team. “This is a groundbreaking, exciting aspect of SWOT.”

Researchers can use the mission’s data on water level and extent to calculate how the amount of water stored in a lake or reservoir changes over time.

This, in turn, can give hydrologists a more precise picture of river discharge — how much water moves through a particular stretch of river.

The visualization above uses SWOT data from July 2023 to November 2024 to show the average water level above sea level in lakes and reservoirs in the Ohio River Basin, which drains into the Mississippi River.

Yellow indicates values greater than 1,600 feet (500 meters), and dark purple represents water levels less than 330 feet (100 meters).

Comparing how such levels change can help hydrologists measure water availability over time in a local area or across a watershed.

Complementing a Patchwork of Data

Historically, estimating freshwater availability for communities within a river basin has been challenging.

Researchers gather information from gauges installed at certain lakes and reservoirs, from airborne surveys, and from other satellites that look at either water level or extent.

But for ground-based and airborne instruments, the coverage can be limited in space and time.

Hydrologists can piece together some of what they need from different satellites, but the data may or may not have been taken at the same time, or the researchers might still need to augment the information with measurements from ground-based sensors.

Even then, calculating freshwater availability can be complicated. Much of the work relies on computer models.

“Traditional water models often don’t work very well in highly regulated basins like the Ohio because they have trouble representing the unpredictable behavior of dam operations,” said George Allen, a freshwater researcher at Virginia Tech in Blacksburg and a member of the SWOT science team.

Many river basins in the United States include dams and reservoirs managed by a patchwork of entities.

While the people who manage a reservoir may know how their section of water behaves, planning for water availability down the entire length of a river can be a challenge.

Since SWOT looks at both rivers and lakes, its data can help provide a more unified view.

“The data lets water managers really know what other people in these freshwater systems are doing,” said SWOT science team member Colin Gleason, a hydrologist at the University of Massachusetts Amherst.

While SWOT researchers are excited about the possibilities that the data is opening up, there is still much to be done.

The satellite’s high-resolution view of water levels and extent means there is a vast ocean of data that researchers must wade through, and it will take some time to process and analyze the measurements.

@patel_patriot

👀

This CR is putting in a section that allows them to "quash or modify any legal process…if compliance with the legal process would require the disclosure of House data…"

House data = "any electronic mail or other electronic or data communication"

They're also applying this section to any pending matters.

Basically if somebody was trying to subpoena emails of a member of congress because of a potential crime or something, this would allow them to quash such a subpoena.

Interesting…

Very Cold Detectors Reveal the Very Hot Universe and Kick Off a New Era in X-ray Astronomy

Dec 17, 2024

X-rays are radiated by matter hotter than one million Kelvin, and high-resolution X-ray spectroscopy can tell us about the composition of the matter and how fast and in what direction it is moving.

Quantum calorimeters are opening this new window on the Universe. First promised four decades ago, the quantum-calorimeter era of X-ray astronomy has finally dawned.

A quantum calorimeter is a device that makes precise measurements of energy quanta by measuring the temperature change that occurs when a quantum of energy is deposited in an absorber with low heat capacity.

The absorber is attached to a thermometer that is somewhat decoupled from a heat sink so that the sensor can heat up and then cool back down again.

To reduce thermodynamic noise and the heat capacity of the sensor, operation at temperatures less than 0.1 K is required.

The idea for thermal measurement of small amounts of energy occurred in several places in the world independently when scientists observed pulses in the readout of low-temperature thermometers and infrared detectors.

They attributed these spurious signals to passing cosmic-ray particles, and considered optimizing detectors for sensitive measurement of the energy of particles and photons.

The idea to develop such sensors for X-ray astronomy was conceived at Goddard Space Flight Center in 1982 when X-ray astronomers were considering instruments to propose for NASA’s planned Advanced X-ray Astrophysics Facility (AXAF).

In a fateful conversation, infrared astronomer Harvey Moseley suggested thermal detection could offer substantial improvement over existing solid-state detectors.

Using Goddard internal research and development funding, development advanced sufficiently to justify, just two years later, proposing a quantum-calorimeter X-ray Spectrometer (XRS) for inclusion on AXAF.

Despite its technical immaturity at the time, the revolutionary potential of the XRS was acknowledged, and the proposal was accepted.

The AXAF design evolved over the subsequent years, however, and the XRS was eliminated from its complement of instruments.

After discussions between NASA and the Japanese Institute of Space and Astronautical Science (ISAS), a new XRS was included in the instrument suite of the Japanese Astro-E X-ray observatory.

Astro-E launched in 2000 but did not reach orbit due to an anomaly in the first stage of the rocket.

Astro-E2, a rebuild of Astro-E, was successfully placed in orbit in 2005 and renamed Suzaku, but the XRS instrument ceased operation before observations started due to loss of the liquid helium, an essential part of the detector cooling system, caused by a faulty storage system.

A redesigned mission, Astro-H, that included a quantum-calorimeter instrument with a redundant cooling system was successfully launched in 2016 and renamed Hitomi.

Hitomi's Soft X-ray Spectrometer (SXS) obtained high resolution spectra of the Perseus cluster of galaxies and a few other sources before a problem with the attitude control system caused the mission to be lost roughly one month after launch.

Even so, Hitomi was the first orbiting observatory to obtain a scientific result using X-ray quantum calorimeters. The spectacular Perseus spectrum generated by the SXS motivated yet another attempt to implement a spaceborne quantum-calorimeter spectrometer.

The X-ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission (XRISM) was launched in September 2023, with the spectrometer aboard renamed Resolve to represent not only its function but also the resolve of the U.S./Japan collaboration to study the Universe through the window of this new capability.

XRISM has been operating well in orbit for over a year.

Development of the Sensor Technology

Development of the sensor technology employed in Resolve began four decades ago. Note that an X-ray quantum-calorimeter spectrometer requires more than the sensor technology.

Other technologies, such as the coolers that provide a

The sensors used from XRS through Resolve were all based on silicon-thermistor thermometers and mercury telluride (HgTe) X-ray absorbers.

They used arrays consisting of 32 to 36 pixels, each of which was an independent quantum calorimeter. Between Astro-E and Astro-E2, a new method of making the thermistor was developed that significantly reduced its low-frequency noise.

Other fabrication advances made it possible to make reproducible connections between absorbers and thermistors and to fit each thermistor and its thermal isolation under its X-ray absorber, making square arrays feasible.

Through a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contract executed after the Astro-E2 mission, EPIR Technologies Inc. reduced the specific heat of the HgTe absorbers.

Additional improvements made to the cooler of the detector heat sink allowed operation at a lower temperature, which further reduced the specific heat.

Together, these changes enabled the pixel width to be increased from 0.64 mm to 0.83 mm while still achieving a lower heat capacity, and thus improving the energy resolution.

From Astro-E through Astro-H, the energy resolution for X-rays of energy around 6000 eV improved from 11 eV, to 5.5 eV, to 4 eV. No changes to the array design were made between Astro-H and XRISM.

Over the same period, other approaches to quantum-calorimeter arrays optimized for the needs of future missions were developed.

The use of superconducting transition-edge sensors (TES) instead of silicon (Si) thermistors led to improved energy resolution, more pixels per array, and multiplexing (a technique that allows multiple signals to be carried on a single wire).

Quantum-calorimeter arrays with thousands of pixels are now standard, such as in the NASA contribution to the future European New Advanced Telescope for High-ENergy Astrophysics (newAthena) mission.

And quantum calorimeters using paramagnetic thermometers — which unlike TES and Si thermistors require no dissipation of heat in the thermometer for it to be read out — combined with high-density wiring are a promising route for realizing even larger arrays.

Results from Resolve

So, what is Resolve revealing about the Universe? Through spectroscopy alone, Resolve allows us to construct images of complex environments where collections of gas and dust with various attributes exist, emitting and absorbing X-rays at energies characteristic of their various compositions, velocities, and temperatures.

For example, in the middle of the galaxy known as NCG 4151 (see figure above), matter spiraling into the central massive black hole forms a circular structure that is flat near the black hole, more donut-shaped further out, and, according to the Resolve data, a bit lumpy.

Matter near the black hole is heated up to X-ray-emitting temperatures and irradiates the matter in the circular structure.

The Resolve spectrum has a bright narrow emission line (peak) from neutral iron atoms that must be coming from colder matter in the circular structure, because hotter material would be ionized, and would have a different emission signature.

Nonetheless, the shape of the iron line needs three components to describe it, each coming from a different lump in the circular structure. The presence of absorption lines (dips) in the spectrum provides further detail about the structure of the infalling matter.

A second example is the detection of X-ray emission by Resolve from the debris of stars that have exploded, such as N132D (see figure below), that will improve our understanding of the explosion mechanism and how the elements produced in stars get distributed, and allow us to infer the type of star each was before ending in a supernova.

Elements are identified by their characteristic emission lines, and shifts of those lines via the Doppler effect tell us how fast the material is moving.

These results are just the beginning. The rich Resolve data sets are identifying complex velocity structures, rare elements, and multiple temperature components in a diverse ensemble of cosmic objects.

Welcome to the quantum calorimeter era! Stay tuned for more revelations!

Matt Gaetz to join One America News as an anchorCNN

Updated 7:17 PM EST, Tue December 10, 2024

Former Florida congressman Matt Gaetz will join One America News Network (OAN) as an anchor in January, the network announced Tuesday.

“Matt Gaetz has earned a reputation as a relentless champion of conservative values, taking on entrenched Washington bureaucrats and exposing government overreach,” the network said in a news release. CNN reported Monday that Gaetz was expected to announce he is joining OAN as an anchor.

News of Gaetz’s move to the network comes less than a month after he withdrew his name from consideration to serve as attorney general, after President-elect Donald Trump told him he didn’t have the votes in the Senate.

Gaetz, who will host a one-hour political talk show in the primetime slot of 9 p.m. ET on weekday nights, said in a statement that he “couldn’t be more thrilled to join OAN’s forward-thinking team and be part of this revolutionary expansion.”

The Republican firebrand previously announced he is not returning to Congress next year.

“I’m still going to be in the fight, but it’s going to be from a new perch. I do not intend to join the 119th Congress,” he told conservative activist Charlie Kirk in an interview last month.

OAN President Charles Herring celebrated the addition of Gaetz to the network in a statement, calling the former congressman “a remarkable talent and a principled leader.”

“His insider access to America’s top policymakers and unwavering dedication to America-first values will bring unparalleled insight and exclusive contentto OAN viewers. We’re thrilled to welcome him to the OAN family,” Herring added.

The addition of Gaetz as an OAN anchor is a big gain for the far-right network, given that most of the channel’s personalities are not well known.

The network was dealt a significant blow when it was dropped by DirecTV in 2022. Other big distributors have been reluctant to carry its programming, and OAN has urged people to stream the network online instead.

OAN has established itself as perhaps the most extremeof the pro-Trump news outlets.

The little-watched network regularly gives airtime to baseless conspiracy theories that support Trump. The channel even worked closely with Russian operatives on a propaganda-style documentary during Trump’s first impeachment in 2019 over allegations he pressured Ukraine to investigate his political rivals.

Gaetz’s decision to withdraw his name for attorney general came in the face of bipartisan pressure, especially as Democrats were pushing for the release of a House Ethics Committee report detailing its investigation into him, including over allegations of sexual misconduct and other alleged crimes.

Gaetz, first elected in 2016, has vehemently denied the allegations investigated by the Justice Department and the committee, including the claim that he had sex with a woman in 2017 when she was a minor.

Since resigning from Congress, Gaetz has taken to the celebrity video message platform Cameo, where he sells personalized video messages.

“I served in Congress. Trump nominated me to be US Attorney General (that didn’t work out). Once I fired the House Speaker,” his bio on Cameo says, referring to his role in ousting former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy last year.

CNN’s Brian Stelter contributed to this report.

https://www.cnn.com/2024/12/09/media/matt-gaetz-one-america-news-anchor/index.html

I hope PDJT removes the ban of OAN by the channels.

Today is a good day to reflect on the time Chrystia Freeland submitted her handwritten notes to the POEC Commission.

Her alarmingly unintelligent penmanship aside, one of her unredacted notes about the Freedom Convoy stated:

"We need a new playbook. You need to designate this group as a terrorist group and seize the assets and imprison them."

Regardless of your stance on vaccine mandates or the Freedom Convoy, the critical issue is this: if the government can label you a terrorist and seize your assets simply for protesting, then protesting has essentially been outlawed in Canada, except when the government endorses the protest.

And let's not forget that during the press conference where the Emergencies Act was invoked and the freezing of bank accounts was announced, she snickered with evident glee.

She's an authoritarian.

NASA Missions Spot Cosmic ‘Wreath’ Displaying Stellar Circle of Life

Dec 17, 2024

Since antiquity, wreaths have symbolized the cycle of life, death, and rebirth.

It is fitting then that one of the best places for astronomers to learn more about the stellar lifecycle resembles a giant holiday wreath itself.

The star cluster NGC 602 lies on the outskirts of the Small Magellanic Cloud, which is one of the closest galaxies to the Milky Way, about 200,000 light-years from Earth.

The stars in NGC 602 have fewer heavier elements compared to the Sun and most of the rest of the galaxy.

Instead, the conditions within NGC 602 mimic those for stars found billions of years ago when the universe was much younger.

This new image combines data from NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory with a previously released image from the agency’s James Webb Space Telescope.

The dark ring-like outline of the wreath seen in Webb data (represented as orange, yellow, green, and blue) is made up of dense clouds of filled dust.

Meanwhile, X-rays from Chandra (red) show young, massive stars that are illuminating the wreath, sending high-energy light into interstellar space.

These X-rays are powered by winds flowing from the young, massive stars that are sprinkled throughout the cluster.

The extended cloud in the Chandra data likely comes from the overlapping X-ray glow of thousands of young, low-mass stars in the cluster.

In addition to this cosmic wreath, a new version of the “Christmas tree cluster” is also now available.

Like NGC 602, NGC 2264 is a cluster of young stars between one and five million years old. (For comparison, the Sun is a middle-aged star about 5 billion years old — about 1,000 times older.)

In this image of NGC 2264, which is much closer than NGC 602 at a distance of about 2,500 light-years from Earth, Chandra data (red, purple, blue, and white) has been combined with optical data (green and violet) captured from by astrophotographer Michael Clow from his telescope in Arizona in November 2024.

Visual Description

This release includes two composite images, each featuring a star cluster that strongly resembles holiday greenery.

The first image depicts star cluster NGC 602 in vibrant and festive colors. The cluster includes a giant dust cloud ring, shown in greens, yellows, blues, and oranges.

The green hues and feathery edges of the ring cloud create the appearance of a wreath made of evergreen boughs. Hints of red representing X-rays provide shading, highlighting layers within the wreath-like ring cloud.

The image is aglow with specks and dots of colorful, festive light, in blues, golds, whites, oranges, and reds.

These lights represent stars within the cluster. Some of the lights gleam with diffraction spikes, while others emit a warm, diffuse glow.

Upon closer inspection, many of the glowing specks have spiraling arms, indicating that they are, in fact, distant galaxies.

The second image in today’s release is a new depiction of NGC 2264, known as the “Christmas Tree Cluster”. Here, wispy green clouds in a conical shape strongly resemble an evergreen tree.

Tiny specks of white, blue, purple, and red light, stars within the cluster, dot the structure, turning the cloud into a festive, cosmic Christmas tree!

Sick and Wicked Fountain Hills, AZ Democrats Hang Wreath with President Trump’s Severed Head as Christmas Decoration

By Jordan Conradson Dec. 18, 2024

Fountain Hills Democrats, outraged by Republicans celebrating Christmas with pro-Trump decorations, took it a step further by incorporating political violence in their Fountain Hills community center decoration.

The blasphemous Christmas wreath features a severed head resembling Donald Trump inside of a Fountain Hills community center. This came in response to Trump flags on the Republicans’ Christmas trees.

Written across the face of the decapitated depiction of Donald Trump are words and phrases accusing the President of the made-up crimes that Biden’s thugs charged with him as the leading Presidential candidate.

“37 felonies,” “Fraud,” “Racketeering,” “Sexual assault,” “Obstruction of justice,” “Withholding of documents,” Guilty: Hush money,” and “Conspiracy to steal the 2020 election” are among some of the lies scribbled on the face.

The Fountain Hills Democratic Club posted photos of their satanic display on Facebook, saying, “We added some free speech to our wreath.” The wreath was later taken down, and the Fountain Hills Democratic Club commented, “We have removed the offensive mask out of respect for all Democrats. A statement was made, if only for a few hours.”

This is nothing new from the Left. Recall when deranged psychopath Kathy Griffin took photos and released a video of herself holding the decapitated head of President Trump back in 2017.

The so-called Christmas decoration drew criticism from some. One woman, Tania Brown, commented on the post, "How does this truly serve the community at Christmas? How do you feel guests from all over the world are going to feel? How does this represent the Fountain Hills Democratic Club? Is this what you want to be known for? I’m saddened by the response y’all chose. I feel it’s in very poor taste and now you’ve matched them. Please be better and do better." The comment drew mixed replies, mostly in support of the horrific display, however. "It disturbs me that you are disappointed," said Sherri James, an admin on the Facebook page. Another replied, "Frankly, I’m tired of taking the high road. I think it’s time to fight fire with fire."

Others applauded the move as "funny," "well done," and "awesome' and claimed it was a warranted response to the Republicans hanging pro-Trump ornaments.

One woman, Dianne Price, also said in a now-deleted comment, “Since they say they cannot limit freedom of expression, I say next year we decorate a tree with sex toys.” Jennifer Ferrell Heim, a Valley of the Sun Jewish Community Center Director of Early Childhood Education, also said, "Who wants to do these trees with me next year? Drag queen tree[,] LGBTQ tree[,] Trans tree[,] Banned books tree[,] All Families matter tree." She added, "I'll keep thinking of more!"

The screenshots of these deleted comments were posted on X by Fountain Hills resident Libby Settle:

Rachel Alexander of the Arizona Sun Times reports,

Fountain Hills Councilman Allen Skillicorn provided a statement to The Arizona Sun Times. “While I defend the Fountain Hills Democratic Club’s free speech, I am shocked by the inappropriate and out of touch behavior by FH Dem Club members,” he said. “The Grinch appears to reside in their hearts. The people of Arizona and Fountain Hills have rejected their sex toy ideology and devotion to confusing children. I defend their right to not believe in Christianity and the Holiday of Christ’s birth, but does that mean they should mock the faith of others? I invite the FH Dems to enjoy some eggnog and twinkly lights, but leave the Bah Humbug at home, behind closed doors.”

The Fountain Hills Community Center invited civic groups to put up Christmas trees a few weeks ago. According to Skillicorn, “An animal rescue has a rescue theme, the Maricopa Sheriff’s Department has a tree with sheriff badges, the Town’s Public Works Staff has a tree with hard hats, and the Fountain Hills Republican Club has Trump flags celebrating the 45th & 47th President of the U.S.A. on their tree.”

The FHDC discussed their activity in their public Facebook group. A poston December 12 contained several photos of a mask of Trump’s severed head within a wreath. The post said the head was only on display for a few hours, then taken down due to the offense it caused. An admin posted, “We have removed the offensive mask out of respect for all Democrats. A statement was made, if only for a few hours.” There were several statements written on Trump’s “face” in pen, such as “37 felonies,” “sexual assault,” and “Conspiracy to steal the 2020 election.”

These people are sick.

BREAKING- Biden's EPA just green-lit California's electric vehicle mandate and ban on gas cars. Under the rules, by 2035, all car purchases in California and 11 other states must be electric.The rules will begin to be phased innext year for model year 2026 vehicles.

It remains unclear how states following California's lead on this are going to meet the targets.

For example, New York's electric vehicle market share is less than 10%. Under these rules, the state must increase that share to 35% *next year*.

According to the largest U.S. auto industry group, the California regulations will "depress economic activity, increase costs and limit vehicle choice" nationwide.

Power Outage At SpaceX Caused Loss Of Ground Control To Private Space Mission

Dec 18, 2024

This September, the Polaris Dawn mission became the first to have a private space walk.

Run by billionaire Jared Isaacman, the mission was seen by some as risky – and it has now been revealed that the spacecraft lost contact with ground control for at least an hour.

This incident was not reported on at the time and has only now come to light in a Reuters exclusive.

The fault was not from the SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule used for the mission, but from the ground. Reportedly, a power outage hit a SpaceX facility in California, temporarily preventing ground control from commanding the craft.

The team and ground control had to use satellites from Starlink, another Elon Musk company, to communicate. Isaacman and the other three astronauts fortunately remained safe during this outage.

"Not having command and control is a big deal," one of the sources for the Reuters piece, who is familiar with the matter, told the outlet.

"The whole point of having mission operators on the ground is to have the ability to quickly respond if something happens."

SpaceX and Musk have so far not responded to media requests about the incident and it is unclear whether the incident was reported to the Federal Aviation Administration, but a source told Reuters that SpaceX notified NASA since the type of spacecraft is also used by their astronauts.

By HALEY COHEN

SEPTEMBER 25, 2022 07:45

Updated: SEPTEMBER 25, 2022 15:29

Perhaps the most powerful man on Wall Street, Stephen Schwarzman, credits a trip to Israel as a teenager for inspiring his entrepreneurial grit. The son of a dry-goods store owner growing up in Philadelphia, Schwarzman recalled his first trip to the Start-up Nation as a 14-year-old.

“Israel has an incredible entrepreneurial community,” Schwarzman, 75, said. “Of course, it had to because when it started, there was almost nothing there. Everything had to be invented by somebody.”

That same year, back in the US, he started his first business – a lawn-mowing operation, employing his younger twin brothers to mow while he brought in the clients.

See 2021's list

Today, with an estimated net worth of $35 billion, Schwarzman is CEO of Blackstone, one of the world’s leading investment firms. His first major donation to Israel was in 2018, when he gave the National Library $10 million. Last year, Blackstone opened its first office in the Jewish state.

RTX Corporation, formerly Raytheon Technologies Corporation,[3][4] is an American multinational aerospace and defense conglomerate headquartered in Arlington, Virginia. It is one of the largest aerospace and defense manufacturers in the world by revenue and market capitalization, as well as one of the largest providers of intelligence services.[note 1][7] In 2023, the company's seat in Forbes Global 2000 was 79.[8] RTX manufactures aircraft engines, avionics, aerostructures, cybersecurity solutions, guided missiles, air defense systems, satellites, and drones. The company is a large military contractor, getting much of its revenue from the U.S. government.[9][10]

The company was formed in 2020 by a merger of equals between the aerospace subsidiaries ofUnited Technologies Corporation (UTC) and the Raytheon Company. Before the merger, UTC spun off its non-aerospace subsidiaries Otis Elevator Company and Carrier Corporation. UTC is the nominal survivor of the merger but it changed its name to Raytheon Technologies and moved its headquarters to Waltham, Massachusetts.[2][11] Former UTC CEO and chairman Gregory J. Hayes is chairman and CEO of the combined company,[12] which changed its name to RTX in July 2023.

The company has three subsidiaries: Collins Aerospace, Pratt & Whitney, and Raytheon (formerly Raytheon Intelligence & Space and Raytheon Missiles & Defense).[3

RTX

Protesters in Goleta, California, gathered outside the RTX office on November 9, 2023, to protest arms shipments to Israel.

In July 2023, Raytheon Technologies Corporation changed its name to RTX Corporation.[4]

RTX's supply of weapons to Israel led to protests against the company during the 2023 Israel–Hamas war.[66] On December 14, 2023, for example, protestors blocked the entrance to an RTX facility in Arizona.[67] In early 2024, 15 people were arrested after blocking access to RTX and BAE Systems facilities in Louisville, Kentucky in protest against supplying weapons to Israel.[68]

In December 2023, RTX announced that CEO Greg Hayes would step down the following May and be replaced by company president Christopher Calio.[69]

In August 2024,RTX was fined US$200 million for International Traffic in Arms Regulations violations, including exchanging data and products with prohibited countries such as China.[70]
