Global Alarm: Governments now believe there’s a link between COVID-19 Vaccines, Antibody-Dependent Enhancement & Immune System Degradation

Since late 2021, official Government reports have indicated the Covid-19 vaccine severely damages the immune system with the potential to cause some new form of Covid-19 vaccine-induced acquired immunodeficiency syndrome among people who have received multiple injections.

The claims were furiously denied by the mainstream establishment despite the fact it was their data that blatantly outlined this was the case. But rather than prove otherwise most Government agencies just decided to stop publishing the damning data instead.

However, almost two years later, the authorities have quietly decided to begin an investigation into Covid-19 vaccine induced Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome and Antibody-Dependent Enhancement after scientists around the world, including many from Harvard and Yale, were forced to admit a debilitating suite of problems have been appearing hours, days or weeks after a Covid-19 vaccine has been administered.

But they have thus far decided to dub the condition ‘Long Vax’ in an attempt to trivialize the deadly consequences of Covid-19 vaccination and give more credence to the alleged condition ‘Long Covid’ which is otherwise known as hypochondria.

‘Whistleblower X’ Joseph Ziegler Says IRS Investigators Discouraged from Probing Biden Crimes: Told that Interviewing Hunter Biden’s Adult Children Would ‘Get Us into Hot Water’

In an exclusive interview with CBS’s Catherine Herridge, Joseph Ziegler, referred to as whistleblower x, shed light on the internal restrictions on investigations concerning Joe Biden.

CBS released a segment of its exclusive interview with Ziegler, who has worked for the Internal Revenue Service for the past 13 years, on the same day that Ziegler testified in front of the House Committee at the request of lawmakers.

When Herridge asked Ziegler if he had found evidence that President Biden had financially benefited from his son, Hunter Biden’s deals, Ziegler did not feel comfortable answering the question. He alluded to an environment within the IRS that curtailed the scope of their inquiries related to the President.

“Anytime we potentially wanted to go down the road of asking questions related to the President, it was, ‘that’s going to take too much approvals? We can’t ask those questions.’ And I mean, it created an environment that was very hard to deal with,” Ziegler said.

Herridge acknowledged the politically sensitive nature of the case and the logical requirement of additional approvals that it might entail. To this, Ziegler agreed but also pointed out an apparent reluctance to pursue such lines of inquiry within the IRS.

“Yes, I do understand that aspect, but it would be like, ‘well, let’s think about it. Let’s put that on the back burner’,” Ziegler added.

“When you’re prevented from going down certain roads, I guess I don’t know what could have been found if we were not hamstrung or not handcuffed,” Ziegler told CBS News.

When asked why he wanted to interview Hunter Biden’s adult children, Ziegler pointed to their connection with certain business deductions and expenses. However, he stated that the necessary approvals for these interviews were never granted, despite the potential implications for the investigation.

“We never received the approvals to talk to those people,” said Ziegler.

An Assistant U.S. Attorney reportedly warned him against further pursuing these leads, saying, “That’s going to get us into hot water.”

Donald Trump arrested: Judge won't move New York hush money case to federal court

by Kaelan Deese, Supreme Court Reporter |

July 19, 2023 02:32 PM

A New York federal judge on Wednesday rejected former President Donald Trump's efforts to move his New York criminal case to federal court.

U.S. District Judge Alvin K. Hellerstein said the former president failed two main components needed to justify his move of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's case from state to federal court.

"Trump has failed to show that the conduct charged by the Indictment is for or relating to any act performed by or for the President under color of the official acts of a President. Trump also has failed to show that he has a colorable federal defense to the Indictment," Hellerstein wrote.

Second IRS Whistleblower Identified as Joseph Ziegler, Award Winning 13 Year Veteran

The second IRS whistleblower identified himself Wednesday as Joseph Ziegler, a 13-year award-winning veteran of the agency, who alleges President Joe Biden’s Justice Department politically interfered in the criminal probe of Hunter Biden.

Ziegler, who previously went by the alias “Whistleblower X,” joined his superior, Supervisory Special Agent Gary Shapley, in testifying publicly before Congress on Wednesday. During the testimony, he conveyed he is a gay Democrat married to a man.

“I’m a Democrat. In the last presidential election, I actually did not vote,” Ziegler told CBS News. “I thought it would be irresponsible of me to do so because I didn’t wanna show bias one way or the other.”

House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-KY) provided Ziegler’s background during the committee hearing:

Mr. Joseph Ziegler is a special agent with the Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation Division specifically assigned to the international tax and Financial Crimes Division. This is a group of 12 elite special agents who are subject matter experts in complex international tax and other related crimes. He started his career with the IRS in 2010 as a special agent and is developed successfully and has developed and successfully completed a multitude of complex financial investigations. The types of investigations include money laundering, bank fraud, wire fraud, mail fraud, healthcare fraud violations of the Bank Secrecy Act, income tax evasion and income tax related charges such as identity theft, and filing false claims for income tax refunds. Ziegler’s won multiple performance awards throughout his career in recognition for his work. Mr. Gary Shapley, Mr. Shapley is the Supervisory Special Agent of the international tax and financial crimes group. Shapley started his career with the IRS and

In 2021, Ziegler alleges he drafted a memo recommending FBI prosecutors charge Hunter Biden with multiple felonies and misdemeanors.

“In August of 2022, we had a phone call with all of the assigned prosecutors and they had said that all four of them were recommending the approval of felony and misdemeanor tax charges,” Ziegler said.

Hunter Biden agreed in June to plead guilty to two federal tax violation charges and one violation of gun laws. He will appear in a Delaware federal court on July 26 before Judge Maryellen Noreika.

Ziegler told CBC News that U.S. Attorney for Delaware, David Weiss, told him FBI officials refused to bring the charges he recommended inside the DOJ.

“David said to us… ‘I’m getting some concern from the Department of Justice Tax Division, the evidence that might come in related to his substance abuse and the death of his brother, Beau Biden, those might affect the jury’s opinion,'” Ziegler said.

Attorney General Merrick Garland flatly denies the whistleblower allegations that Biden’s DOJ interfered in the Hunter Biden criminal tax probe.

Polling shows 61 percent of Americans believe Hunter Biden received “special treatment” in his plea deal with Weiss, a TIPP Poll revealed Wednesday.

Arctic and Antarctic bracing for potential days-long radio blackouts as solar storm hits

Brendan ByrneJuly 19, 2023 2:20 pm

Radio blackouts in the Arctic and Antarctic regions are being caused by an ongoing solar storm, as stated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), CBS News reported.

Arctic and Antarctic could experience radio blackouts for days due to solar storm

This event, known as a “cannibal” coronal mass ejection (CME), originates from the sun. It has the potential to result in prolonged radio blackouts lasting for days.

The NOAA has provided some information about what’s been happening in the sky. There’s something called a Polar Cap Absorption (PCA) event going on. This is when radio waves at high and very high frequencies are absorbed in the upper part of the atmosphere called the ionosphere. On the other hand, radio waves at low and very low frequencies are being bounced back at lower heights than usual.

This event started on Monday evening at around 9:15 p.m. ET and is expected to continue until July 19, according to The 1014. The reason behind these radio blackouts is a big cloud of plasma called a CME that came out of the sun. Along with that, there was a strong M5 solar flare. Together, these two events caused a minor solar radiation storm and sent some energetic particles called protons toward Earth.

This solar radiation storm is categorized as an S1 on a scale that goes up to S5. This means it won’t have any biological effects or impact satellite operations. However, it might still cause some radio blackouts specifically in the polar regions.

“PCA events can prevent the ability to communicate via HF radio propagation around the polar regions,” NOAA stated.

Recent Solar Flares, Radiation Storms, and the ‘Cannibal’ CME

Not long after announcing an M5.7 flare and CME coming from the same part of the sun, NOAA issued another notice. A satellite detected a moderate solar radiation storm that can cause radio blackouts on the sunlit side of Earth, as stated.

The agency predicts solar flares throughout the week, including the strongest type called X-class flares on Monday and Tuesday.

On Friday, there was a small solar flare and what was described as a “dark eruption” on the sun’s surface. SpaceWeather.com explained it as a spray of dark plasma that flew away from the sun’s southern hemisphere. The next day, a stronger flare occurred.

The CMEs associated with this event are likely to reach us by Tuesday, according to NOAA. As a result, there is a possibility of a mild geomagnetic storm occurring alongside the existing solar radiation storm.

Banking Insider Warns CBDCs Will Be Implanted Chips

Claims our only hope is to build our own banking system

The Bank for International Settlements recently published a report called, "Blueprint for the future monetary system: improving the Old, enabling the New." This report proposes that a Central Bank Digital Currency will serve as the new reserve currency. And calls for the digital confiscation of all physical property by assigning every real-world item its own unique digital token which will contain rules on how each item can and cannot be used. So that each person can be controlled and conditioned directly by the central bank.

Woman posing as girl busts New York ‘healthcare’ group giving transgender drugs to kids

Community Healthcare Network offered transgender hormones without parental consent or knowledge to a woman who went undercover as a 14-year-old girl.

A woman posing as a 14 year-old girl caught a New York City “healthcare provider” on tape offering her, a presumed minor, cross-sex hormones without parental consent.

A recording shared to Twitter on Monday by the nonprofit group “Gays Against Groomers” shows how an anonymous contact of the group went undercover as a girl named “Kelly” asking for transgender “transition” services without parental consent.

“Kelly” first reached out to Planned Parenthood to request help with a gender “transition” but was denied, since the organization does not offer such services to minors, a company employee can be heard explaining over the phone.

However, as a potential alternative provider of sex “transition” services for minors, the Planned Parenthood worker provided “Kelly” the phone number of the New York City-based Community Healthcare Network (CHN).

Once on the phone with Brian from CHN, “Kelly” heavily emphasized in her story that she was “only 14” and “trans,” and that her parents were upset by her confession to being “trans.” While she “needed help,” she did not specify exactly what she wanted.

“If you’re looking for a primary care provider and looking for treatment, like hormonal therapy [sic], we can do that,” Brian responded, adding that they also provide “mental health services.”

When Kelly asked how she would go about scheduling an appointment so her parents “wouldn’t find out,” Brian proposed that they use “Code Cindy,” a practice by which contact from CHN is directed to the patient alone. He explained that they would refrain from sending mail to her home and would only call her personal phone.

Brian pointed out, while discussing her “concern” to keep the hormones a secret from her parents, “Since you’re not getting any mail to your address, there should be no reason for them to ever know that you’re getting services from us.”

“We discovered that ‘CODE CINDY’ is a tag that @CHNNYC puts on minor’s files to be sure their parents never find out they are seeking hormones and other ‘gender affirming’ drugs/procedures. Truly disturbing. No parent should ever be kept in the dark about such things,” the “Gays Against Groomers” twitter account remarked in a comment on the video.

The twitter thread did not point out that sterility is the result of the use of puberty blockers followed by cross-sex hormones, which are admittedly taken in succession the “vast majority” of the time by minors who wish to “change” their sex.

BIDEN CRIME FAMILY CAUGHT! – IRS Whistleblower – Gay, Democrat, Joseph Ziegler – Confirms that Biden Family Received Approximately $17 Million in Payments from China, Romania and Other Countries

Courageous IRS Whistleblower – Gay, Democrat, IRS official Joseph Ziegler – told Congress on Wednesday that the Biden Family received approximately $17 Million in payments from China, Romania and other countries.

The House Oversight Committee led by Rep. James Comer (R-KY) held a hearing with IRS whistleblowers on Wednesday.

At least two IRS whistleblowers have come forward to reveal Hunter Biden received preferential treatment throughout the mop-up operation disguised as an investigation.

The anonymous whistleblower, identified as Joseph Ziegler, finally came forward publicly on Wednesday: “Today, I sit here before you, not as a hero or a victim, but as a whistleblower compelled to disclose the truth.

Ziegler testified that Ukrainian Burisma energy company paid the Biden family over $7.3 million!

The total was $17 million from foreign countries.

From the hearing:

Rep. James Comer: How much money did Hunter Biden and his business associates receive from the Ukrainian company Burisma , paid to everyone involved?

Joseph Ziegler: 6.5 million.

Rep. James Comer: Burisma also paid Blue Star Strategies and a law firm hundreds of thousands of dollars, bringing the total Barisma payments to over $7 million. Is that correct?

Joseph Ziegler: That is correct. 7.3 million.

Rep. James Comer: 7.3 million. Between 2014 and 2019, this brings the total amount of foreign income streams received to approximately $17 million, correct?

Joseph Ziegler: That is correct.

The Biden Crime Family just got caught.

Trump Campaign Hoping To Lock Up GOP Nomination With Third Indictment

PALM BEACH, FL — With news of a third indictment soon to be handed down by the Department of Justice, insiders at Donald Trump's 2024 presidential campaign are hopeful it will be enough to clinch the Republican nomination.

"Each one brings us a little bit closer to victory," said Senior Campaign Advisor Chris LaCivita. "With this third indictment, we should have everything completely sewn up for next year's convention. Honestly, we kinda just hope they keep indicting him right up through the general election. It would carry him right into the White House."

DOJ officials remain confident that this time, the indictment will work and will keep Trump from gaining more support. "Yes, we are aware that every time we indict him, he gets more popular," said a source within Attorney General Merrick Garland's office. "But we're absolutely certain this is the one that will work. Honestly, we can't actually beat him legitimately, so continually firing out these indictments is really all we have."

The former president expressed confidence both in his chances against the new indictment as well as his odds of re-election. "KEEP THESE FABRICATED INDICTMENTS COMING," Trump said in a post to his Truth Social account. "THESE INDICTMENTS GIVE ME STRENGTH. I EAT THEM FOR BREAKFAST WITH MY EGG MCMUFFINS. THEY NOURISH ME. NOM NOM NOM! FEED ME MORE! MAGA!"

At publishing time, staffers at Trump's campaign office had reportedly begun making reservations for an election victory party next November after hearing rumors of additional indictments being prepared by the DOJ.

After 12:30 p.m. a tornado touched down north of Rocky Mount, near the Battleboro and Dortches communities, and roofs and siding were ripped off homes and buildings across Nash County, where some people were injured.

The tornado warning expired at 1:30 p.m. Before then, the storm may have covered a path as long as 20 miles, according to WRAL meteorologists. The debris wall was 2.5 miles wide near Interstate 95 in Nash County.

The roof was torn off the Pfizer building in Rocky Mount and much of the plant was destroyed. Sky 5 flew over the site at 3 p.m., where trailers were overturned, the roof was crushed and the building were splintered. Nash County Sheriff Keith Stone told WRAL News he heard reports that 50,000 pallets of medicine were destroyed when the tornado hit Pfizer.

Pfizer released the following statement: "At this point there are no reports of serious injuries. We are assessing the situation to determine the impact on production. Our thoughts are with our colleagues, our patients, and the community as we rebuild from this weather incident."

BIDEN SLAMMED DURING HEARING FOR THREATENING NATIONAL SECURITY

Rep. William Timmons, R-S.C., laid out Joe Biden’s alleged bribery scheme before slamming him for selling out the country.

He described the supposed scheme by offering the steps taken to allegedly execute it. He said, “Foreign client has a problem, pays a Biden. Vice President Biden travels to the country. Vice President Biden leverages U.S. influence to force a favorable outcome for the client.”

Allegations of Biden’s influence peddling have been continuously denied and Timmons went on to address that. He stated, “He lied about this during the campaign. He specifically said it wasn’t true.”

COMER SAYS ‘FBI HAD AN UNCLASSIFIED RECORD’ DETAILING JOE BIDEN’S INVOLVEMENT IN ‘EXTORTION AND BRIBERY SCHEME’

Rep. James Comer, R-Ky. offered fiery information regarding the Biden family crimes during the House Oversight Committee hearing on Wednesday.

First, he described how “the Biden family, their business associates, and their companies received over $10 million from foreign nationals and related companies.”

This allegedly took place while Joe Biden served as vice president and utilized “complicated financial transactions” to “conceal funding sources.”

Then, Comer referenced information found through whistleblower disclosures which indicated that “the FBI had an unclassified record that details an extortion and bribery scheme involving then-Vice President Biden and a Burisma executive.”

IRS Whistleblower Says Hunter Biden's Attorneys Made 'False Statements' And 'Threatened' Prosecutors

Internal Revenue Service (IRS) whistleblower Gary Shapley accused Hunter Biden’s attorneys of making false statements about him after he testified about the Hunter Biden investigation to the House Ways & Means Committee.

Shapley testified Wednesday to the House Oversight Committee about the Hunter Biden investigation and claimed Biden’s attorneys spread an “error-filled” letter with “false statements” about him.

“Even last fall, Biden family attorneys attacked investigators in the pages of The Washington Post and threatened the prosecutors with career suicide if they brought charges against the president’s son. Then one of the Biden family attorneys sends to the press a 10-page, error-filled letter that attacked me with innuendo, false statements, and baseless speculation that I had leaked information to The Washington Post. These statements by Biden family attorneys are false,” Shapley testified.

Abbe Lowell, an attorney for Hunter Biden, wrote a letter to the House Ways & Means Committee in late June that appeared to spread falsehoods about Shapley and the other IRS whistleblower. Lowell accused Shapley of leaking information to The Washington Post and fabricating an alleged text Hunter Biden sent to a Chinese official.

Shapley’s attorneys have demanded The Washington Post correct Lowell’s accusations and publicly disclose that Shapley was not a source for an October 2022 story about the Hunter Biden investigation. The IRS agent previously testified to the House Ways & Means Committee that the text allegedly sent by Hunter Biden to a Chinese official was obtained from a search warrant for Biden’s iCloud files.

Additionally, Lowell said the IRS whistleblowers were not informed about the penalties for false testimony, despite whistleblower transcripts showing otherwise. He did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Shapley described in his written testimony how Biden’s attorneys allegedly tried pressuring the Department of Justice (DOJ) into launching a criminal investigation for his whistleblowing.

“After my testimony was released, we received a request for a comment from a reporter claiming that Mr. Biden’s attorneys had sent a letter to the Justice Department lobbying for a retaliatory criminal inquiry against me for my protected whistleblowing. The press did not share a copy of this alleged letter with us, and I have still not seen it,” Shapley said in his written testimony.

“But, it is chilling to think that after threatening prosecutors with ‘career suicide,’ Mr. Biden’s attorneys would be so bold as to actually lobby in writing for his father’s Justice Department to prosecute the whistleblower who disclosed preferential treatment for the President’s son,” Shapley added.

The DOJ declined to comment.

George Clooney calls for ‘dismantling’ of Wagner PMC

Two American celebrity activists have urged Western nations to use their experience of Al-Qaeda to tackle the Russian group

The US and its allies should seize the opportunity to sanction and prosecute the Wagner private military company in the wake of the aborted mutiny by its chief, Evgeny Prigozhin, according to two American celebrity activists.

The call was made on Monday by actor George Clooney and author John Prendergast, who also served on the National Security Council under President Bill Clinton. They said there was an “unprecedented opportunity to counter” Russia’s influence in Africa by going after Wagner.

In a column they wrote for The Economist magazine, Clooney and Prendergast described the private military company as one of Moscow’s “most successful foreign-policy initiatives during the past decade” and an “atrocity.”

Wagner has been offering security services to some governments in Africa. The celebrities claimed the group was “protecting the regime [in the Central African Republic] in exchange for mineral concessions” and a way to “hijack a government.” They promoted a report on Wagner’s activities released by their NGO, The Sentry, which alleged that the group “seeks to disable multinational predatory networks.”

Evgeny Prigozhin led a brief mutiny in Russia last month, moving some of the group’s forces from Ukraine towards Russian cities. The maneuver was aborted after a deal was struck with the government, which offered him exemption from prosecution in exchange for going into de facto exile.

Clooney and Prendergast believe that the Wagner Group’s presence in Africa, which they described as a “virus,” will continue. However, the transition period can be used by Western nations to “take action against both the operation and its originator.”

“They should create an ad hoc coalition aimed at dismantling the group’s business empire, building on lessons from similar efforts focused on Islamic State and Al-Qaeda,” they suggested.

Islamic State emerged in the mid-2010s amid chaos in Iraq and Syria. Iraq had been occupied by a US-led coalition a decade earlier. Syria was hit by Western-supported anti-government protests in 2011, which quickly escalated into a civil war. Some of Washington’s closest regional allies, such as Saudi Arabia and the UAE, reportedly supplied arms to anti-Damascus groups, as did the CIA.

Al-Qaeda stemmed from the US-backed campaign to support anti-Soviet insurgency in Afghanistan in the 1980s. While Washington considers it a terrorist organization, in 2012 Jake Sullivan infamously celebrated the fact that it was “on our side” in Syria, according to leaked US diplomatic cables. The incumbent national security adviser to US President Joe Biden was serving in Hillary Clinton’s Department of State at the time.

‘El Pollo’ Carvajal Extradited to US for Drug Trafficking: Former Venezuelan Espionage Chief Holds Secrets That Can Destroy Latin American Leftist Regimes

The Spanish national court, charged with extradition matters, made a decision that may have a broad impact in the Latin American geopolitical landscape.

By ordering on Tuesday Interpol to ‘immediately deliver’ Hugo Carvajal to US authorities, Spanish judges may have lit the fuse than can set leftist regimes on fire throughout Latin America.

‘El Pollo’ (the chicken} Carvajal was stripped of his General rank in Venezuelan Counter-Intelligence by Maduro’s administration after he made the failed political bet of coming out in support of the US-supported opposition leader Juan Guaidó as Venezuela’s acting president, in February 2019.

Carvajal was finally arrested in Madrid in September 2021, on a drug trafficking Interpol search warrant.

Reuters reported:

“The former head of Venezuela’s military intelligence, Hugo Carvajal, who is wanted by the United States on drug trafficking charges, has left Spain under a High Court extradition order, his lawyer and a court source told Reuters on Wednesday.

Carvajal is expected to arrive in the United States later in the day and could make an initial court appearance on Thursday morning, his lawyer, Zachary Margulis-Ohnuma, said.”

The Spanish court ordered Carvajal’s immediate extradition after the European Court of Human Rights rejected his last attempt to avoid being sent to the US.

Carvajal was Chavez’s eyes and ears within Venezuela’s military for more than a decade, and he knows many secrets about the continental socialist movement in Latin America.

“The United States in 2020 accused Carvajal of drug trafficking, along with more than a dozen other high-ranking Venezuelan officials, including President Nicolas Maduro. Carvajal has denied supporting cocaine trafficking to the United States.”

The European court of human rights ended up rejecting his appeal against extradition to the US, arguing it was not proven he faces a ‘real risk’ of ‘being sentenced to life imprisonment without chance of parole’.

The Guardian reported:

“Gen Hugo Armando Carvajal, who served as intelligence chief under the former Venezuelan leader Hugo Chávez, has long been sought by US Treasury officials who suspect him of providing support to drug trafficking by the now disarmed Farc guerrilla group in Colombia.

Prosecutors in New York allege he used his high office to coordinate the smuggling of approximately 5,600kg (12,345lb) of cocaine from Venezuela to Mexico in 2006 that was destined for the US.

Known by the nickname “El Pollo” – the Chicken – the 63-year-old is also suspected of potentially having incriminating evidence against the Venezuelan president, Nicolás Maduro, Chavez’s successor and a major adversary of the US.”

But ‘El Pollo’ holds secret over more than just Venezuela’s strong man. A whole network of people in power indebted to the Bolivarian socialists exists in the region.

Corporate Media Help Biden Hide Growing Illegal Migrant Inflow

Corporate media outlets are helping Democrats claim that President Joe Biden has reduced the monthly inflow of illegal economic migrants.

“Migrant numbers at the southern border dropped sharply in June in the full first month after the ending of the Title 42 public health order,” said a report at Fox News.

Border officials apprehended 99,545 individuals in between ports of entry at the U.S.-Mexico border last month, the first time this figure has fallen below 100,000 since February 2021,” Politico.com claimed July 18. “It’s a 42 percent decline from May, when the Biden administration implemented a series of new immigration policies.

‘”Border apprehensions at lowest level since February 2021,” said the headline at TheHill.com.

“Migrant crossings along U.S.-Mexico border plummeted in June amid stricter asylum rules,” claimed CBS News.

But the official numbers cited by establishment media outlets hide the growing migrant inflow via the many quasi-legal side doors that Biden’s deputies are cutting through the border, say immigration reformers.

Homeland Secretary Alejandro “Mayorkas is playing a massive shell game,” said Rep. Mark Green, the chairman of the House Committee on homeland security. “The outcome — tens of thousands of inadmissible aliens [are] entering Customs and Border Patrol and being released into the country,” he said on July 19. “Secretary Mayorkas’s insistence that this is legal is a lie,” he added.

“Encounters of illegal migrants by the Border Patrol at the Southwest Border were down in June, but only because the Biden administration has invented other means of allowing large numbers of inadmissible aliens to enter the country,” said a July 19 statement from the Federation for American Immigration Reform. (FAIR), adding:

When it comes to illegal immigration, the Biden administration’s strategy is to make it less visible to the American public, not to rein in the unprecedented flow of migrants. Their strategy entails redirecting migrants away from crossing between ports of entry, by allowing them to enter through land ports of entry or to fly directly to the United States. They have done so through the blatant abuse of parole authority and by encouraging a growing number of illegal migrants to use the CBP One phone app.

The official numbers also hide the number of “gateways” who are allowed to sneak across the poorly guarded border. Those three uncounted categories add up to at least 80,000 migrants per month.

That monthly inflow adds to roughly one million illegal migrants per year — or one illegal migrant for every four births. That huge population spike shifts vast wealth away from ordinary Americans to employers and real estate investors, for example, by inflating the cost of housing.

Mr. Smith Goes to Washington — With a Possible New Indictment of Donald Trump

Published 07/19/23 06:00 AM ET|Updated 11 hr ago

Jonathan Turley

Mr. Smith Goes to Washington is a favorite classic movie for millions of Americans. Today’s legal-political sequel, however, may prove to be a bit more controversial.

Former President Donald Trump has revealed that he received a "target letter" from Justice Department special counsel Jack Smith as part of Smith’s investigation into the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the Capitol.

Many people were surprised by the news, since Smith already is pursuing criminal charges in Florida on the mishandling of classified documents and the likely Jan. 6 allegations are far more tenuous legally. However, the second indictment may have one irresistible element: It could be tried in Washington.

There are obvious reasons why Mr. Smith would want to go to Washington in this instance. Trump would face what is, for him, arguably the worst jury pool in the country. Trump lost the 2020 presidential vote in the District of Columbia, receiving a mere 5.4% of the vote. That means finding a Trump supporter in the district’s jury pool is only slightly more likely than finding a snow leopard.

Such an indictment could come at a high legal and political cost. This would be the third criminal indictment of Trump and there may still be a fourth coming in Georgia. Past indictments have given Trump boosts in polling, and this indictment could well seal the view of many voters that Democrats are weaponizing the legal system.

Smith has a reputation in conservative circles for stretching the criminal code in high-profile cases, including the prosecution of then-Virginia Gov. Robert McDonnell (R), a conviction that was later thrown out in an 8-0 decision by the U.S. Supreme Court, which rebuked Smith for what it termed the "Government’s boundless interpretation.”

That would certainly be the likely criticism again if Smith relies on Trump’s Jan. 6 speech for criminal charges. That speech is entirely protected under the First Amendment and governing case law, including Brandenburg v. Ohio. Any count based on Trump's speech would likely be overturned on appeal.

Smith also could be pursuing claims based on the Trump team’s effort to challenge the 2020 election’s certification, including the possible submission of an alternative slate of electors. That foundation also would be controversial, however.

In the past, congressional Democrats used the very same law to challenge presidential election certifications with little or no evidence. Indeed, not long after the election, I wrote about that possibility in what I called the “Death Star strategy” using the same grounds. The use of the federal law for that purpose was not and is not a crime.

Indeed, the House Jan. 6 (J6) Committee’s chairman, Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.), voted to challenge the certification of the 2004 election results and then-President George W. Bush’s reelection. His fellow J6 Committee member, Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), sought to challenge Trump’s certification in 2016. Then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Richard Durbin (D-Ill.) both praised the challenge organized by then-Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) in 2004.

A lawyer from Tampa has been indicted for engaging in illicit sexual conduct in Cambodia with two minors. Rugh Cline is currently on house arrest in Florida after posting a $100,000 bond. As part of his restrictions, Cline is not allowed to have any devices that can access the internet, including smartphones and smart TVs.

He is facing five counts of engaging in illicit sexual conduct with four minors, one as young as 12-years old, in a foreign place and one count of possessing child sex abuse materials.

According to a non-governmental organization, Cline paid the families of his victims a total of $120 for the illegal acts. The penalty for purchase of child prostitution in the country is currently a sentence of just seven to 15 years, when the child is under 15 years old.

An eye-catching Twitter thread by Mike Benz, Executive Director of the Foundation for Freedom Online, is stirring up quite a buzz. As you’re probably aware, Dana Nessel, the radically anti-Trump Michigan Attorney General has brought conspiracy charges against 16 “grandparents” for serving as “alternate electors” in the contentious 2020 election.

The truly concerning aspect of these charges isn’t merely the idea that Whitmer and her crew aim to imprison these older adults indefinitely.

It’s that this move is part of a broader scheme to once again attempt to imprison President Trump and meddle with the 2024 election. As always, there’s a calculated reason why Dems are pulling this move, and it has absolutely nothing to do with “justice” or “secure elections” and everything to do with the next round of charges from Biden’s immoral and unjust DOJ.

Breitbart:

The so-called “fake electors” case is said to be central to Special Counsel Jack Smith’s investigation of Trump and his campaign. Former President Trump said Tuesday he had been informed he was a target of the inquiry.

Notice a pattern here? Right on time, much like the last presidential election when the sudden COVID outbreak happened at the most “convenient” moment for the Democrats, chaos ensues. While this bogus case unfolds in Michigan, Mike Benz has uncovered documents revealing what John Podesta, Hillary’s former campaign CEO, had planned to ensure Biden’s inauguration, regardless of the actual election outcome. What John Podesta plotted was far worse than anything Trump could have ever imagined.

US halts funding to Wuhan lab

The Chinese facility has been at the center of claims that it was the source of Covid-19, despite a lack of proof

(I don’t believe a word of this, they are rerouting the money somehow.)

The US Department of Health and Human Services has suspended all funding to the Wuhan Institute of Virology with an eye toward permanently defunding the lab, a HHS spokesperson confirmed on Tuesday. The facility has been accused by many in Washington of unleashing Covid-19 on the world, despite a lack of proof thereof.

The move is aimed at ensuring the institute “does not receive another dollar of federal funding,” the spokesperson said in a statement, citing the lab’s alleged failure to provide information requested by the National Institutes of Health relating to issues of compliance with US biosafety protocols.

Suspending the institute’s funding was “necessary to mitigate any potential public health risk,” a HHS official wrote in the agency’s memo regarding the funding cut.

The institute was notified on Monday of the suspension, which will make it ineligible for future federal grants and contracts, and prohibits it from conducting any business with the US. A ten-month investigation by the HHS found thelab was “not compliant with federal regulations and is not presently responsible.”

The institute has received no money from the NIH since July 2020,according to the HHS. It has not issued a public response but may contest the suspension and debarment. Beijing has repeatedly denied the facility was the source of the Covid-19 outbreak.

House Republicans, many of whom believe the lab’s research on bat coronaviruses was the source of Covid-19, excoriated the Biden administration for dragging its feet on the decision. Congress had voted to ban further funding to the institute last July.

“They deserve no credit for finally doing what the evidence and facts demanded. It is outrageous that it took them so long.HHS must now consider a similar debarment for EcoHealth Alliance,” House Energy and Commerce Committee chair Cathy McMorris told reporters on Wednesday.

EcoHealth Alliance partnered with the Wuhan lab to conduct controversial “gain-of-function” research into making bat coronaviruses more infectious – research that was at the time illegal in the US. It then attempted to conceal the nature of that research from the public, though its president, Peter Daszak, has denied the research in question constituted gain-of-function or posed a danger to humans.

Congressional Republicans concluded in an October report that “substantial evidence” pointed to a lab leak at the Wuhan facility as the source of SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for Covid-19. A US intelligence report released last month merely alluded to safety issues with the lab while acknowledging there was no evidence to suggest it was the source of the virus.

Russia launches massive missile strikes on Ukraine

Moscow has ramped up long-range strikes against the country in the aftermath of a Ukrainian attack on the Crimean Bridge

Russia launched a massive cruise missile and suicide-drone barrage on targets in Ukraine overnight, the country’s Defense Ministry said on Wednesday.Military infrastructure, fuel depots, weapon stockpiles, and an airbase were among the targets identifiedby the Russian military in its daily briefing.

It said a group strike had been conducted using “high-precision sea- and air-launched weapons,” which struck “military industry facilities, fuel infrastructure, and ammunition depots” near the city of Odessa, as well asUkraine’s Kanatovo air base in Kirovohrad Region. All the designated targets were successfully hit and the objectives of the strikes were achieved, it added.

Footage circulating online shows massive explosions in the vicinity of Odessa, including at its Black Sea ports. Ukrainian officials have claimed the strikes also inflicted damage on civilian infrastructure, with the city’s mayor, Gennadiy Trukhanov, saying the attack was the largest since the beginning of hostilities. He described last night in the city as “terrible.”

A grain terminal at a port near Odessa was damaged in the strikes, but it was not immediately clear what exactly struck the installation, particularly given the recent history of Ukraine’s own air-defense units inflicting damage on civilian infrastructure in the country, and even abroad.

The port town of Chernomorsk, located some 20km south of Odessa, experienced particularly heavy destruction overnight, according to Ukrainian Agriculture Minister Nikolay Solskiy.Some 60 tons of grain were destroyed there, while damage to the port will take around a year to repair, he claimed.

The ramped-up long-range attacks come after Russia withdrew from the so-called Black Sea grain deal, which was agreed in July 2022. The initiative, facilitated by the UN and Türkiye, lifted the naval blockade on Ukraine’s Black Sea ports, facilitating its grain exports. None of the promises made to Russia under the deal, such as lifting sanctions and enabling its grain and fertilizer exports, have ever been fulfilled.

The termination of the deal coincided with a new Ukrainian attack on the strategic Crimean Bridge. The blast killed a Russian civilian couple and seriously injured their 14-year-old daughter. The incident was described by top Russian officials as a “terrorist attack,” with President Vladimir Putin vowing to retaliate.

US responds to Russia's Black Sea alert

Moscow earlier warned that all ships in the Black Sea headed for Ukrainian ports would be treated as military

The US has no plans to assist ships in entering Ukrainian ports, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre confirmed on Wednesday, responding to a reporter’s question about the Russian Ministry of Defense’s warning that all ships headed for Ukrainian ports in the Black Sea would be considered military targets.

Washington will “continue to support Ukraine’s effort to get Ukrainian grain to the markets,” Jean-Pierre said, mentioning a $250 million aid package along with seeds, fertilizer, and help with crop storage and processing.

However, when asked how the US planned to “shore up [Ukraine’s] naval capabilities,” she offered only a vague pledge to “make sure they have what they need to defend themselves.”

Port and harbor security equipment was included in the $1.3 billion military aid package announced by the Pentagon on Wednesday. Ukraine will also receive National Advanced Surface to Air Missile Systems, Phoenix Ghost and Switchblade drones, additional artillery rounds and mine clearing equipment, counter-drone and electronic warfare detection equipment, and precision aerial munitions in the latest package, which brings the total amount of military aid supplied by the US since Russia’s military operation began in 2022 to $42.6 billion.

Jean-Pierre’s comments confirmed those of National Security Council spokesmanJohn Kirby, who earlier this week ruled out using US military assets to protect shipments of grain in and out of Ukrainian ports. Instead, the US will “work with other countries” to ensure the grain gets where it needs to go, he said.

Russia withdrew from the Black Sea Grain Initiative on Monday, complaining the US had failed to keep its promises to lift some of the restrictions imposed in the wake of its military operation in Ukraine, including reconnecting its banks to SWIFT, opening an ammonia pipeline to Italy, permitting the import of agricultural machinery and parts, and unblocking transportation insurance and other logistics.

The Kremlin also condemned what it described as a “terror attack” by Ukrainian drones targeting the Crimean bridge, which killed a couple in their vehicle and severely injured their child, but denied it was a factor in the decision to exit the grain deal.

Going forward, all ships traveling to Ukrainian ports “will be considered potential carriers of military cargo,” and the flags of such ships will be seen to be “taking part in the Ukrainian conflict on the side of the Kiev regime,” Russia’s Defense Ministry warned on Wednesday.

Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky on Tuesday called on the UN and Türkiye to revive the grain deal without Russia, insisting “everything must be done so we can use this Black Sea corridor.” (Turkey ain’t going along with this!)

US to send VAMPIREs to Ukraine – Reuters

The platform is designed to take out drones and other low-flying aircraft

US officials are set to announce another $1.3 billion arms package for Ukraine, including multiple types of suicide drones and the newly developed VAMPIRE rocket launcher system, according to Reuters.

The latest military assistance will be unveiled sometime this week, the outlet reported on Tuesday, citing two US officials. Kiev will receive ammunition, radar and other counter-drone systems in addition to the VAMPIRE – or Vehicle-Agnostic Modular Palletized ISR Rocket Equipment.

Produced by US arms contractor L3Harris, the VAMPIRE can be mounted on most vehicles with a cargo bed, including civilian pickup trucks, or installed in a fixed position. The weapon consists of a targeting sensor and a launch pod equipped with four 70mm laser-guided rockets, and can be used by a single operator against both air and ground targets.

While L3Harris says the system is “configurable with different sensors and weapons packages,” it remains unclear which variant will be provided to Kiev.

The upcoming weapons package will also include two types of loitering munitions – drones equipped with explosives which orbit the battlefield in search of a target – the Phoenix Ghost and the Switchblade. Both UAVs have been sent to Ukraine in the past, with nearly 600 Phoenix Ghosts supplied in a $95 million arms shipment last year.

The VAMPIRE was initially announced for Kiev last August, with L3Harris later confirming it had received a $40 million Pentagon contractto deliver four systems by mid-2023 and 10 more by the end of the year. The company will install the kits on vehicles which will then be sent on to Ukraine.

The $1.3 billion in military aid will come from the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative (USAI) program, under which the White House has purchased weapons from industry rather than drawing on US stockpiles. Since the conflict with Russia erupted last year,President Joe Biden has authorized $41.3 billion in direct arms transfers to Kiev, and more than $10 billion under the USAI.

Forked Tongues: heavy emitters exposed as hypocrites on climate action, new analysis shows

Behind public statements supporting climate action, key companies engaged in extensive lobbying against Labor’s flagship climate policy, the Safeguard Mechanism.

Many of the country’s blue-chip, carbon-intensive companies stand accused of supporting action on climate change while at the same time successfully undermining a key plank of the Federal government’s push to deal with heavy carbon emissions.

Research by InfluenceMap, a global pro-climate think tank, reveals a host of big-name corporates that professed support for climate action and yet lobbied against Labor’s safeguard mechanism when it was proposed in March this year.

Their lobbying efforts proved successful, with Labor agreeing to water down several key elements of the policy. The eventual reforms were cheaper for and less-onerous on emission-intensive industries.

‘Clear hypocrisy’

The companies included oil and gas leaders Origin, Woodside and Alinta, miners Rio Tinto, Fortescue, Glencore and Whitehaven Coal and heavy industrials players BlueScope Steel and Adbri.

Interestingly, only one emissions-intensive company, BP, publicly supported climate action and the Safeguard Mechanism reforms, according to InfluenceMap’s analysis of public statements on both issues.

InfluenceMap senior analyst Tom Holen says that “while they (the companies) publicly endorse climate action, their active opposition to key elements of the Safeguard Mechanism reforms demonstrates a clear hypocrisy.”

The Safeguard Mechanism, first introduced in 2016 by the Abbott government, is the primary federal greenhouse gas emissions reduction policy. It is targeted at facilities that emit more than 100,000 tons of carbon dioxide a year and covers half of Australia’s total greenhouse gas emissions.

Labor’s reforms, first signalled in the lead-up to the 2022 election, were designed to tighten the rules over emissions and ensure that Australia’s largest emitters proportionally curbed emissions in order to meet Australia’s 2030 and 2050 greenhouse gas targets.

Holden says InfluenceMap’s work also showed how, “the overwhelming dominance from a few negative sectors in the policy debate” placed Australia’s 2030 and 2050 greenhouse gas targets at risk.

Veteran US Marine fears he'll end up dead 'like Jeffrey Epstein' after being warned by 'men in black' not to speak about UFO he claims he saw during Sumatran earthquake humanitarian mission in 2009

UPDATED: 18:06 EDT, 19 July 2023

A US Marine veteran who claimed his unit saw a secret military UFO in 2009 has said he is now living in fear for his life as he believes dark forces want him silenced.

Former rifleman Michael Herrera, 33, has said he doesn't want to end up like disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein - who he suggests was killed, despite his August 2019 death being ruled a suicide.

Last month, Denver-born Herrera sensationally claimed that while he was serving in Indonesia in 2009, his six-man unit stumbled across a flying saucer being loaded with weapons.

Herrera was then a 20-year-old rifleman sent on a Navy humanitarian mission during the 2009 Sumatra earthquake and tsunami that devastated the region.

He told the Mail that while guarding an airdrop of aid supplies outside the city of Padang in October that year, his six-man unit stumbled across a hovering octagonal craft in apparent use by clandestine US forces.

'I could see something moving and rotating. It was changing colors between a very light matte gray to a very dark matte black,' he said. 'It stuck out like a sore thumb.'

They were then threatened at gunpoint by unmarked US forces at the scene who told him not to disclose his sighting of the 'flying saucer' to anyone, according to Herrera, and his camera was seized by some mysterious 'men in black'.

Now, the former Marine claims the threat continues to hover over him - quite literally, as he says black helicopters have been circling his Denver home.

People who say they've had alien encounters often complain about being stalked by black helicopters - a common trope which skeptics claim is just an urban myth.

Speaking at length with podcaster Shawn Ryan, he said he is worried that he will one day be killed by the sinister forces which he believes are trying to cover up the Pentagon's UFO secrets.

'I don't feel like harming myself …everybody makes the joke Epstein didn't kill himself... so the same goes here,' Herrera said.

'I don't have any reason to harm myself so if anything happens – it's not from me.

'I've had numerous encounters with f***ing helicopters hovering over my house,' he added. 'They were hovering over my dad's house too.

'They get so low, where they rattle the walls [and] scare the sh*t out of the animals that we've got.

'[My dad's] dogs were going f***ing crazy at that point and he was concerned because he was home and he was like I've never heard anything like that.'

Herrera added that he believes other UFO whistleblowers have been subjected to similar intimidation tactics.

'There's just a kind of hysterical factor to this how much money they're f***ing spending on this to happen to try to either intimidate me or anybody else for that matter,' he said.

'There's some elected officials, and even some government officials I know they're having the same thing happen to them because they've told me about it personally.'

Herrera's claim about seeing the UFO in Indonesia came after 14 years of silence.

He felt emboldened by new UFO whistleblower protections, and in April testified under oath to the government's UFO investigation team, the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), as well as a Senate committee.

The veteran provided his unblemished four-year service record, and texts about the incident with an alleged fellow witness – who refused to talk, saying it was 'not worth my life or jeopardizing my family'.

Peripheral aspects of his account were verified by DailyMail.com using military sources. But Herrera, 33, does not have documentation or photos of the incident itself.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Australian government now run by the corrupt Big 4 Consulting firms – PwC, Deloitte, EY and KPMG. How many $billions have they stolen and helped others steal?

The big four accounting / consulting firms PwC, Deloitte, EY and KPMG have likely cost Australia $billions of dollars via over charging state and federal governments and aiding abetting national and foreign companies with tax avoidance which is stealing from the Australian public.

Video below shows the contempt that 2 of those companies’ management have for the government and accountability.

The corruption by the big four accounting / consulting firms PwC, Deloitte, EY and KPMG was exposed recently, at least in part, with the PWC tax scam where they were paid to help the federal government draft tax laws to make foreign companies pay more tax while at the same time PWC was advising those same companies on how to avoid the tax.

The Australian Senate set up the “Inquiry into management and assurance of integrity by consulting services (Consulting services)” which is in effect an inquiry into corruption by EY, Deloitte, KPMG and PwC. The inquiry is due to publish it’s final report by the 30th of November 2023.

On Monday and Tuesday, the Senate Inquiry had public hearings and the below video is a must watch as it shows Deloitte Chairperson Tom Imbesi and Ernst and Young CEO David Larocca showing total contempt for the Senate Inquiry which is ultimately showing total contempt for the Australian public.

In the video Deloitte Chairperson Tom Imbesi insists he must first “check with the Department” to see if they agree to be named at the Senate Inquiry regarding suspected corruption and Ernst and Young CEO David Larocca refuses to give the Senate Inquiry important information regarding EY partner’s pay.

In some ways it is easy to understand why Deloitte Chairperson Tom Imbesi and Ernst and Young CEO David Larocca are so arrogant, think they run the show and are above accountability. They know the AFP Commissioner Reece Kershaw in up to his neck in the corruption at PWC, so he is unlikely to take any real action.

I published an article on the 28th of May 2023 titled “AFP Commissioner Reece Kershaw and former NSW Police Commissioner Mick Fuller set to cover-up the PwC tax dodging scandal” which starts off:

AFP Commissioner Reece Kershaw and former NSW Police Commissioner Mick Fuller, who now works for PwC, have already had private communication about the PwC tax dodging scandal that is now being investigated by the federal police.

Kershaw and Fuller have a history of working together to cover-up government corruption, but more on that in a minute.

Mick Fuller is his role as a partner at PwC is currently doing work reviewing ACT Policing which is a branch of the AFP. PwC has current contracts with the AFP such as a $5.9 million contract with PwC for software and support services. (Click here to read more)

In the below video (28/5/23) Senator David Shoebridge asks Reece Kershaw about his friendship with Mick Fuller and if he had declared the conflict. Reece Kershaw’s arrogant response is disturbing. Also, there is video of Reece Kershaw refusing to answer questions in March 2020 about the Angus Taylor document fraud.

QAnon supporters are promoting 'Sound of Freedom.' Here's why

Sound of Freedom, a Christian thriller about a former federal agent rescuing children from exploitation, is this summer's surprise box office hit. Made for about $15 million, it earned almost as much on its release day as the final installment of Indiana Jones and has raked in more than $85 million since opening earlier this month.

But the movie is also being criticized as a vehicle for conspiracy theories and misleading depictions of human trafficking — landing it in the middle of the country's politically polarized culture wars.

The film, based on a real-life, controversial anti-trafficking activist, is being heavily promoted in conservative media. Former President Donald Trump is hosting a screening on Wednesday at his golf club in Bedminster, N.J .

A big part of its success is an appeal from its star, Jim Caviezel, who comes on screen at the end urging viewers to buy more tickets so other people can see it and help end child trafficking. It's a model distributor Angel Studios calls "pay it forward."

Caviezel, who previously played Jesus Christ in Mel Gibson's The Passion of the Christ, is also drawing attention to the film in other ways. For years, he's been a prominent promoter of the false, violent QAnon conspiracy theory — specifically, the baseless claim that an international cabal of elites is abusing and killing children to extract a substance called adrenochrome.

These wild claims have become deeply enmeshed with narratives about child trafficking in recent years, from the QAnon predecessor Pizzagate conspiracy theory, which falsely alleged a pizza parlor in Washington, D.C., was home to a child sex ring, to false claims that online retailer Wayfair was selling children in the guise of furniture.

In press appearances promoting Sound of Freedom, Caviezel continues to spout QAnon falsehoods. On a recent episode of former Trump adviser Steve Bannon's podcast, Caviezel claimed "the whole adrenochrome empire" is driving demand for trafficked children. "It's an elite drug that they've used for many years," he asserted, falsely claiming it is "10 times more potent than heroin" and "has some mystical qualities as far as making you look younger."

Despite Caviezel's comments, Sound of Freedom itself doesn't contain any references to adrenochrome or other conspiracy theories. It was actually filmed before QAnon conspiracy theories became a widespread phenomenon.

Executives at Angel Studios, the film's distributor, have publicly rejected any association with conspiracies. So have Tim Ballard, the former federal agent Caviezel plays in the movie, and his organization, Operation Underground Railroad. (Angel Studios declined NPR's interview request. Operation Underground Railroad did not respond to NPR's questions.)

But Ballard recently told right-wing podcadster Jordan Peterson that claimed adrenochrome harvesting is real. His statements, and Caviezel's, have an impact on how Sound of Freedom is being received, said Mike Rothschild, author of The Storm Is Upon Us: How QAnon Became a Movement, Cult, and Conspiracy Theory of Everything.

"It's being marketed to QAnon believers, it's being embraced by this community and its leading actor is a huge part of the QAnon community," he said.

Turner: Since the statute of limitations was allowed to run, Mr. Shapley, you go on to state that in order for him [Hunter] to pay this [back taxes], he'd have to pay it voluntarily, that the government doesn't have a way to compel him to pay it, because they've allowed the statute of limitations; not just he got out of criminal, he got out having to pay the tax, right?

Shapley: That's correct, the civil and criminal statute of limitations have expired for that tax year.

SNP admits to felling 16 million trees to develop wind farms

Almost 16 million trees have been chopped down on publicly owned land in Scotland to make way for wind farms, an SNP minister had admitted amid a major drive to erect more turbines.

Mairi Gougeon, the Rural Affairs Secretary, estimated that 15.7 million trees had been felled since 2000 in land that is currently managed by agency Forestry and Land Scotland (FLS) - the equivalent of more than 1,700 per day.

‘Rachel’ Levine’s Ex-Wife Suffered ‘Emotion’ From Divorce That Made Her Stop Writing

"The birthday of the dog that I adopted is the same date as my 'wedding day,'" wrote Rachel Levine's ex-wife. "Now I have something else to celebrate."

Rachel Levine, a once relatively little known healthcare bureaucrat in Pennsylvania who jumped up to Assistant Secretary of Health under Joe Biden, and more recently became the first “female” four-star admiral of the U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps, used to have a wife.

Before donning the military uniform and long hair, Levine was known to the world as Richard Leland Levine. As Richard, Levine played high school football with future-General Mark Milley, and eventually went to medical school. In medical school, Richard began dating a woman named Martha Peaslee. The two attained their medical degrees, married in 1988, had two children named David and Dayna, and lived relatively quiet lives as medical doctors and academics until they reached middle age.

Note that some are SLASH, therefore ASH and SLASH are likely forms of the same name or acronym. A common call sign. The pilots have to input that stuff and styles/available space to make those inputs vary. Mostly see the numbers either representing a flight number or airframe serial. Compare to left column and easily seen. The strange thing about your old screenshot is so many instances of same word in so many callsigns. Don't usually see that. When was this?

Own Goal

Bumbling Democrat Dan Goldman Brings in Witness Testimony at IRS Hearing that Joe Biden and Hunter Talked About Foreign Business Deals, Contradicting Joe’s Denials

Freshman Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY), a former federal prosecutor who made his name as the lead counsel in the first Trump impeachment, bumbled into tying Joe Biden to son Hunter’s foreign business deals, contradicting Joe Biden’s years-long claims that he never discussed with Hunter his foreign business deals.

Goldman was asking the two IRS whistleblowers testifying at Wednesday’s hearing by the House Oversight Committee, Supervisory Special Agent Gary Shapley and Criminal Investigator Joseph Ziegler (aka Whistleblower X) about testimony by former Hunter Biden business partner Rob Walker that Joe Biden had dropped by a business lunch Hunter was having with representatives of the Chinese energy form CEFC at the Four Seasons hotel in Washington, D.C. when Biden was out of office. In doing so, Goldman proved the lie told by Joe Biden that he never spoke with Hunter about his foreign business deals.

After getting Shapley to agree that Walker testified he was “not aware that Joe Biden was ever a part of anything that he and Hunter were doing,” Goldman brought up the lunch at the Four Seasons:

Goldman: “And you testified that he said to, that Hunter told his dad, according to Rob Walker, quote, “I may be trying to start a company or try do something with these guys.” Now let me ask you something, that doesn’t sound much like Joe Biden was involved in whatever Hunter Biden was doing with the CEFC if Hunter Biden is telling him that he’s trying to do business with them, does it?”

Shapley: “No, but it does show that he said, he told his father he was trying to do business. And he was talking with his father about the business…”

Goldman: “Well, that is true, Hunter Biden does try to do business, that’s correct. So you don’t, not only have no direct evidence connecting Joe Biden to any of Hunter Biden’s business deals, you actually had proof that he wasn’t involved that he wasn’t involved. That is the proof that you had.”

Excerpt from Washington Examiner article detailing the CEFC luncheon:

Shapley said that “Walker went on to describe an instance in which the former Vice President showed up at a CEFC meeting.”

Walker told the FBI, “We were at the Four Seasons and we were having lunch and he [Joe Biden] stopped in, just said hello to everybody. I don’t even think he drank water. I think Hunter Biden said, ‘I may be trying to start a company or try to do something with these guys and could you?’ And I think he [Joe Biden] was like, ‘if I’m around,’ and he’d show up.”

The FBI agent then asked, “So you definitely got the feeling that that was orchestrated by Hunter Biden to have like an appearance by his dad at that meeting just to kind of bolster your chances at making a deal work out?”

“Sure,” Walker replied.

The FBI agent then asked if there were “any times when he was in office, or did you hear Hunter Biden say that he was setting up a meeting with his dad with them while dad was still in office?”

“Yes,” Walker replied.

Shapley said that the FBI agent then “inexplicably … changed the subject.”

In August 2019, Biden swore he never spoke with Hunter or his brothers about their business (Politico excerpt):

Joe Biden pledged to erect an “absolute wall” between the presidency and his family’s business dealings and said he has never discussed business with relatives, following an event here on Wednesday.

“I have never discussed, with my son or my brother or with anyone else, anything having to do with their businesses. Period,” he said. “And what I will do is the same thing we did in our administration. There will be an absolute wall between personal and private [business interests] and the government. There wasn’t any hint of scandal at all when we were there. And I’m going to propose the same kind of strict, strict rules. That’s why I never talked with my son or my brother or anyone else — even distant family — about their business interests. Period.”

The former vice president’s comments, in response to a question from POLITICO, come amid allegations that his younger brother James and his son Hunter have sought to use his political connections to enrich themselves, and amid scrutiny of Hunter’s business dealings in China and Ukraine.

ANOTHER LEAK: Dirty Jack Smith to Charge Trump with Civil War Era Civil Rights Violation – Bastardizing the Law to Jail Biden Regime’s Political Opponents

Special Counsel Jack Smith leaked another report to The New York Times on Wednesday night.

This comes after the House Oversight Committee produced $17 million in bank receipts and witness testimony in the Biden Family bribery, corruption, and influence peddling schemes with foreign regimes.

Jack Smith is likely to use the same Civil War Civil Rights Violation that Merrick Garland and the DOJ has been using to send January 6 protesters to prison for years for non-violent crimes.

Again, this leak was reported Wednesday night after the damning testimony from this afternoon.

Federal prosecutors have introduced a new twist into the Jan. 6 investigation by suggesting in a target letter that they could charge former President Donald J. Trump with violating a civil rights statute that dates back to the post-Civil War Reconstruction era, according to three people familiar with the matter.

The letter to Mr. Trump from the special counsel, Jack Smith, referred to three criminal statutes as part of the grand jury investigation into Mr. Trump’s efforts to reverse his 2020 election loss, according to two people with knowledge of its contents. Two of the statutes were familiar from the criminal referral by the House Jan. 6 committee and months of discussion by legal experts: conspiracy to defraud the government and obstruction of an official proceeding.

But the third criminal law cited in the letter was a surprise: Section 241 of Title 18 of the United States Code, which makes it a crime for people to “conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person” in the “free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him by the Constitution or laws of the United States.”

Congress enacted that statute after the Civil War to provide a tool for federal agents to go after Southern whites, including Ku Klux Klan members, who engaged in terrorism to prevent formerly enslaved African Americans from voting. But in the modern era, it has been used more broadly, including in cases of voting fraud conspiracies.

The Gateway Pundit spoke with DC Attorney Marina Medvin in April 2023. Marina represents several J6 defendants. Medvin described the unusual use of this Civil War Era law to use on protesters on January 6. It is unprecedented.

Chris Rufo's American Cultural Revolution

How the Radical Left Conquered Everything

“The ambition of this book is to reveal the inner history of America’s cultural revolution, tracing the arc of its development from its origin point to the present day.” Christopher Rufo, America’s Cultural Revolution: How the Radical Left Conquered Everything.

Christopher Rufo may have been setting out the ambition of his new book, America’s Cultural Revolution, but there is no mistake that this work itself is ambitious, given the scale of material (the cultural revolution and pre-revolutionary ideas, and the creation and progression of that movement, for starters) and the connection from leftist thought leaders of the mid-20th century to the absurdities and very real cultural and political dangers we see today.

But his task is also necessary, as the proper answer to the question of “where we are” – one of disagreement even among conservatives, some of whom deny we are in a revolutionary age – requires an exploration of how we got here and the ideas that led us to this point. The revolutionary lineage from the 1960s (and before) carries on to this day – albeit in an arguably stronger form. What was radical is now the orthodoxy. Those calling for sexual liberation in 1955, for example, would no doubt be shocked – and proud – at the evolution and success of that idea. We add that political liberation and sexual liberation are indeed intertwined, as they both can lead to spiritual bondage.

Rufo, to his credit, achieves that ambitious goal. America’s Cultural Revolution is divided into four parts: Revolution, Race, Education, and Power, with each including a biography of the prophets of the cultural revolution. There is an exacting focus on the prophets’ writings (supported by hundreds of footnotes) concerning “liberation”, political violence, anti-racism, and the destruction of institutions – many of which we see regurgitated, exercised, and acted upon to this day.

Your humble author is especially thankful for Rufo’s deep dive into the history of the revolutionaries, which helps to give a biography of the movement. We often see the ridiculous (the shop teacher with z-cups) and the concerning (statues toppled) and the evil (public school teacher-led gender transitions), but we’re left without an understanding of where all this originated and how it came to be.

Naked brothers who escaped feces-covered home looked like ‘cavemen’ who had ‘never seen the sun before’: court docs

Two young brothers imprisoned in their feces-covered Wisconsin home raised the alarm by smashing their way out of a window — walking naked through the street like “cavemen” who’d “never seen the sun before,” according to distressing court documents.

Multiple neighbors called 911 after seeing the boys, aged 7 and 9, walking naked outside their Milwaukee home last Thursday, according to a criminal complaint detailing multiple felony charges against their mom, Katie Koch, 34, and stepdad, Joel Manke, 38.

The boys were bruised and blooded and had so much feces in their hair it had to be shaved off later in a hospital, the affidavit said.

A 13-year-old girl told cops that she saw a “naked person walking on the sidewalk like a ‘caveman,'” the document stated.

“Like they had never seen the sun before,” the same young witness also told WDJT, while another neighbor who’d been there 30 years said he had no idea there were even kids in the house.

Responding cops described the boys’ home as a “terrible hoarding situation” — with feces covering the walls and so much trash officers “had a difficult time seeing the floor.”

The 7-year-old boy was put in a diaper, and the boys’ bedroom had a lock outside as well as boarded-up windows, the affidavit said.

“It was something out of a horror movie,” Assistant District Attorney Mallory Davis told an initial hearing for the mom and stepdad, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

“These children were essentially confined to their room for much of their lives.”

Manke, the stepdad, admitted in interviews to boarding up the windows and locking the boys in their room, the affidavit said.

He “stated that he knew how the children were living was not right but he had to ‘pick his battles’ with [their mom] Koch to avoid arguments,” officers stated.

“Manke stated that he never contacted police or schools to report the children because he doesn’t believe in doing that to family members.”

The mom, meanwhile, admitted that the boys never went to school and had not been checked by a doctor in years.

“Koch stated that she ‘f—ed up'” and knew “her boys deserve better,” the affidavit said of her interview under oath.

Davis, the prosecutor, told the couple’s hearing that the boys are “completely uneducated” and not even potty trained, according to WDJT.

The parents face more than 40 years in prison if convicted of multiple counts of neglect and false imprisonment, the outlet said.

“These children have been horribly damaged from their mother’s actions,” Davis said.

“They are, essentially at this point, unable to function in society.”

Crockett: The insinuation that this committee is trying to make, or at least one side of this committee is trying to make, is that for some reason there was interference, and my colleagues continue to make sure they outline the fact that this investigation actually started under the Trump administration…at the end of the day, we have no evidence whatsoever that [Joe Biden] or the attorney general of the United States interfered.

The Guardian: Avoid Using The Term 'Wealthy Elite' And Instead Say 'The Powerful Few' to Not 'Trigger Antisemitism'

Criticizing the "wealthy elite" is anti-Semitic, according to new speech codes from the "Reframing Race initiative" covered by the Guardian on Tuesday.

From The Guardian, "Avoid phrases that link negativity with blackness, anti-racism report recommends":

Phrases and words that link negativity with blackness and positivity with whiteness – such as "black mood", "dark times" or "whiter than white" – reinforce racist connotations and should be avoided, an anti-racism initiative has recommended.

Reframing Race has put together a report titled Contains Strong Language to equip anti-racism and racial inequality campaigners with the words that have proven most effective in persuading people of the "harm and structural nature of racism".

The guide says associating whiteness with purity, cleanliness and goodness, and blackness with evil and destruction serves to "reinforce harmful tropes and the constructed racial hierarchy in which 'black and minoritised' people are pushed to the bottom".

It also suggests using images or visual descriptions that apply only to white people – such as "blushing red", "ashen faces" or "lips turning blue" risks othering black or minoritised people and should be avoided.

[...] Other recommendations include avoiding the phrase "white working class" and rather using "multi-ethnic working class" or "working-class people of all ethnicities" because the use of the former wrongly excludes black and minoritised people from the class group.

It also suggests avoiding the use of the term "wealthy elite" and rather saying "the powerful few" as the former phrase can trigger antisemitism and feed the conspiracy theories of far-right white nationalists.

Swedish embassy torched ahead of new Koran burning stunt

The incident marks the second chaotic demonstration at the compound in recent weeks

A large crowd of rioters have stormed theSwedish Embassy in Iraqand set the building ablaze, in a protest against an officially sanctioned protest, with possible Koran-burning, planned outside the Iraqi embassy in Stockholm.

Hundreds of people flocked to the diplomatic mission in the early hours of Thursday morning, after influential Shi'ite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr called on his supporters to demonstrate, according to Reuters.

Footage from the scene has circulated online, with one clip purporting to show the moment rioters stormed the embassy.

Fire and smoke could be seen in other videos, with black plumes billowing from the embassy’s windows as protesters chanted slogans.

A source cited by Reuters said that no embassy staff were harmed during the protest, but offered no other details.

The demonstration was reportedly prompted by the Swedish government’s approval for an upcoming Koran-burning performance in front of the Iraqi Embassy in Stockholm on Thursday.

A similar stunt was carried out last month at the same location, triggering a heated protest in Baghdad which also saw an angry crowd storm the Swedish Embassy.

The governments of multiple Muslim countries also lodged formal protests over the previous Koran-burning, including Iraq, the United Arab Emirates, Jordan, Morocco and Türkiye. Al-Sadr, meanwhile, called for the expulsion of Sweden’s ambassador to Iraq, saying he represented a nation “hostile to Islam.”

Russia and the United States also condemned the Stockholm stunt, though Washington maintained that allowing it to take place was in line with Swedes’ rights to free expression.
