T. Boone Pickens gave up on Wind in favor of Natural Gas in 2010.
They were never gonna get a wind farm built in Hawaii.
But, it seems parts of [Their] Plan were on autopilot...bringing about certain inevitabilities.
T. Boone Pickens, once one of the brightest examples of the shift from conventional fossil fuel energy to renewable energy, has announced his Pickens Plan no longer involves wind energy.
Pickens made his fortune in the oil and gas industry. Yet, in 2008, he offered up the Pickens Plan as a roadmap for creating American energy independence by eliminating the country’s dependency on foreign oil. According to the plan, the two energy sources capable of this task were wind energy and natural gas.
In his plan, Pickens stated that America was home to the best wind corridor of any country in the world. In a promotional video, he explains, “For land size, compared to everybody else, we’re the best. We’re not using it. We have not used it.”
Pickens advocated that the development of this energy source would not only help solve America’s energy issues, but it would also stimulate the economy by creating jobs and revitalizing rural towns. To this end, he laid out plans to build a 4,000 megawatt wind farm — the world’s largest — in Pampa, Texas, and spent US$80 million promoting the Pickens Plan.
However, since the very beginning his wind plans have fizzled. From the outset, construction of the wind farm was hampered by a lack of transmission lines to transfer the energy to city centers. Even though the location of Pampa, Texas was no longer a possibility, Pickens was still on the hook construct a wind farm as he had already placed the order for 687 wind turbines. Last year, he reaffirmed his intention to build 4,000 megawatts of wind power.
Since then, speculation has run rampant that he had lost his fervor for wind power. Now, that speculation can be put to rest, as Pickens Plan is being revamped to focus exclusively on one resource, natural gas.
According to MSNBC.com, last Friday, Pickens said low natural gas prices have made utility companies view wind power as too expensive. “You’re going to get natural gas prices up, or wind — it just isn’t gonna happen.” Pickens is still trying to find a home for his original shipment of 500 megawatts worth of wind turbines. He says Canada will be the likely destination because it has better renewable energy standards.

Government brief claims that 2026 trial "would deny the public its right to a speedy trial".I thought that it was the defendant that had a RIGHT to a speedy trial. Do US prosecutors also have a right to speedy lynching?

NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day

The Pistachio Nebula
This nebula had never been noted before. Newly discovered nebulas are usually angularly small and found by professionals using large telescopes. In contrast, the Pistachio Nebula was discovered by dedicated amateurs and, although faint, is nearly the size of the full Moon. In modern times, amateurs with even small telescopes can create long exposures over sky areas much larger than most professional telescopes can see. They can therefore discover both previously unknown areas of extended emission around known objects, as well as entirely unknown objects, like nebulas. The pictured Pistachio Nebula is shown in oxygen emission (blue) and hydrogen emission (red). The nature of the hot central star is currently unknown, and the nebula might be labeled a planetary nebula if it turns out to be a white dwarf star. The featured image is a composite of over 70 hours of exposure taken in early June under the dark skies of Namibia.

Mexico Gears Up for Historic UFO Hearing Led by Top Ufologist
Aug 21, 2023
The truth is out there. And Mexico is ready.
Jaime Maussan, Mexico’s leading ufologist, has unveiled plans for the inaugural UFO hearing at the Mexican Congress. Slated for September 12, this groundbreaking event marks a monumental chapter in Mexico’s history with the unexplained.
International Presence in the Spotlight
The hearing will feature Ryan Graves, a former US Navy pilot known for his testimony before the US Congress regarding his encounters with Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAPs). But the list doesn’t end there. “For the first time in Mexico’s history, we’re hosting such a pivotal event,” proclaimed Maussan in a video shared on his Twitter. He hinted at a diverse panel, including international guests ready to recount their experiences and field questions from Mexican lawmakers and the media.
Unveiling the Unknown
Captain Julio Darwish will lead the charge, representing an association he’s founded, Unknown Vector. This group comprises commercial pilots who’ve crossed paths with mysterious flying entities. Maussan emphasized the significant shift in perceptions, stating, “Times are undeniably changing. This hearing will undoubtedly usher in transformative changes in Mexico.”
This announcement is particularly timely, given the recent cessation of public UAP hearings in the US post the July 26 event in Washington, D.C. US legislator Mike Turner cited concerns over potentially tarnishing the Department of Defense’s reputation as a primary reason for this halt.

Secret Service Arrests Chicago Woman for Alleged Threats to Shoot Donald and Barron Trump
Simon Kent22 Aug 2023
A Chicago-area woman was arrested by Federal agents Monday on a complaint accusing her of sending email threats to shoot former President Donald Trump and his youngest son Barron, according to federal prosecutors and a criminal complaint.
AP reports Tracy Marie Fiorenza, 41, was taken into custody on a charge of transmitting threats to kill or injure, according to the U.S. attorney’s office in Chicago.
The case was filed earlier this month in U.S. District Court in southern Florida.
“I will state that I will shoot Donald Trump Sr. AND Barron Trump straight in the face at any opportunity I get!,” Fiorenza allegedly said in a May 21 email to the head of an educational institution in the Palm Beach, Florida, area, according to an affidavit accompanying the complaint.
Donald Trump’s primary residence is in Palm Beach.
Fiorenza allegedly wrote a similar email on June 5, saying she would “slam a bullet” into Barron Trump “with his father IN SELF DEFENSE!,” according to the affidavit submitted by a U.S. Secret Service agent.
Neither the headmaster nor the school where the emails were allegedly sent was named in the charging documents.
CBS News Chicago reported Fiorenza made an initial appearance Monday afternoon in U.S. District Court in Chicago. A judge said she must go to the district court in Florida to answer the charges.
The judge will decide at a Wednesday hearing how she will be transferred.
Agents interviewed Fiorenza at the agency’s Chicago field on June 14 — during which she was shown copies of the emails with the threats to shoot Donald Trump, according to the affidavit.
The affidavit says Fiorenza lives in Plainfield, Illinois, a southwest Chicago suburb.
The CBS News Chicago report alleges a Facebook page linked to Fiorenza, and still viewable by the public on Monday, includes several anti-Trump posts, including an image of a Trump effigy being hanged from a tree, and references to pedophile rings and the Illuminati.
On her Facebook page, Fiorenza claims to be a former social studies teacher at Chicago Public Schools. CPS confirmed to the outlet she was a district employee from Sept. 22, 2019, until she was fired on Aug. 30, 2020. CPS would not confirm she was a teacher.
This is not the first time the former president has faced public threats against his life.
As Breitbart News reported, according to research from the social media analytics company Dataminr, over 12,000 tweets called for his assassination in the days straight after he took office on January 20th, 2017.

CNN’s Honig: DOJ Repeatedly Took ‘Very Lenient’ Stance on Hunter, Only Changed After Public Pressure, Whistleblowers
Ian Hanchett22 Aug 2023
2:25
On Monday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Lead,” CNN Senior Legal Analyst Elie Honig stated that we’ve seen a recurring pattern where the Department of Justice moves towards “a very lenient disposition” on Hunter Biden, “they’re just about to lock in that lenient disposition, and then there arises pressure, either through whistleblower testimony or through public scrutiny, and then, DOJ backs off and says, actually, we’re not going to do that now that it’s been called out, we’re going to try to up it a little bit.” And argued that the “only way to restore any credibility” is to charge Hunter with everything they can and go to trial.
Honig said, “[I]t’s really inexplicable to me. First, we had basically five years of behind-the-scenes investigation with no transparency, no action, and some questions being asked, what’s taken so long? But in the last couple of months, we’ve seen a pattern here. … And we’ve now seen it play out two or three separate times. DOJ moves toward a very lenient disposition, they’re just about to lock in that lenient disposition, and then there arises pressure, either through whistleblower testimony or through public scrutiny, and then, DOJ backs off and says, actually, we’re not going to do that now that it’s been called out, we’re going to try to up it a little bit. And then that happened again. And then they go all the way to appointing a special counsel, the same guy who’s been presiding over the case for five-plus years already. So, I genuinely am perplexed by what DOJ’s doing here. I think they’ve made a real mess for themselves and now they’re going to have to deal with the consequences of it.”
He added, “DOJ has sort of been in a darned if they do, darned if they don’t posture on this from the start. But they’ve made it way worse by sort of careening back and forth here. It may well be that any deal is never going to be accepted as fair. So, if I’m in David Weiss’ shoes here — heaven help me — I would just say, look, we’re charging everything we have, we’re not in position to make a deal, it’ll go to trial, and we’ll let the jury decide this. I think that’s the only way to restore any credibility to this matter.”

Defense Primer: Directed-Energy Weapons
As the Department of Defense (DOD) continues to invest in directed-energy (DE) weapons, Congress may consider implications for defense authorizations, appropriations, and oversight.
DE weapons include high-energy lasers (HEL) and high-powered microwave (HPM) weapons; other DE weapons, such as particle beam weapons, are outside the scope of this In Focus.
This In Focus discusses a selection of unclassified DE weapons programs
Updated May 18, 2023
https://crsreports.congress.gov/product/pdf/IF/IF11882
Directed energy weapons—such as lasers—use energy fired at the speed of light. These weapons can produce force that ranges from deterrent, to damaging, to destructive. Many countries, including the U.S., are researching their use.
High energy lasers produce a very narrow beam of light, usually in the infrared to visible region, and are typically used on one target at a time. The beam can be pulsed or continuous, generating a power output of at least 1 kilowatt. This output is 200,000 times greater than a typical laser pointer and is capable of melting steel.

De-dollarization is irreversible – Putin
BRICS will become economically more powerful than the G7, the Russian president said in an address to the Johannesburg summit
The US dollar is losing its global role in an “objective and irreversible” process, the Russian president told participants at the BRICS Summit in South Africa on Tuesday. Vladimir Putin spoke by via videolink, after choosing not to attend the event in person.
De-dollarization is “gaining momentum” he said, adding that members of the group of major emerging economies are seeking to reduce their reliance on the greenback in mutual transactions.
The Russian leader said the five nations – Russia, China, India, Brazil and South Africa – are becoming the new world economic leaders, and that their cumulative share of global GDP has reached 26%.
He noted that if measured by purchasing power parity, BRICS has already surpassed the Group of Seven leading industrialised nations – accounting for 31% of the global economy, compared to 30% for the G7.
Over the past 10 years, mutual investment between the BRICS member states has increased by six times. Their total investments in the world economy have doubled, while cumulative exports account for 20% of the global total, Putin said
Moscow is focusing on re-orienting its transport and logistics routes towards “reliable foreign partners,” including BRICS members, to ensure an uninterrupted supply of energy and food to the international market.
Russia’s primary goals include developing the Northern Sea Route and the ‘North-South’ transport corridor, Putin stated. The first, passing through the Arctic Ocean, along Russia’s northern coastline, will ensure faster goods deliveries between Europe and the Far East. The second will connect Russia’s northern and Baltic ports to the Persian Gulf and the Indian Ocean, facilitating cargo movement between Eurasian and African nations.
“We are consistently increasing fuel, food and fertilizer supplies to the states of the Global South,” and actively contributing to global food and energy security, the Russian leader said. He blamed the current international food crisis on the West’s unilateral sanctions, describing them as “unlawful.”
“Illegitimate sanctions… seriously weigh on the international economic situation,” and the “unlawful freezing of sovereign states’ assets” constitutes a violation of free trade and economic cooperation rules.

Stew Peters Exposes the ADL’s Pedophile Origins
Jewish pedophile Leo Frank was convicted of raping and murdering a 13-year-old white girl, but to this day, the ADL blames a black maintenance worker for the crime.
Vanguard/blackrock run Rumble is blocking this video
https://rumble.com/v3a6kzs-adl-defends-notorious-pedophile-on-twitter-leo-frank-guilty-of-raping-and-m.html
Stew Peters EXPOSED the Anti-Defamation League’s pro-pedophile origins in a recent segment of the Stew Peters Show, harkening back to the birth of the ADL, which was formed to defend convicted Jewish pedophile and child-killer Leo Frank while accusing those who sought justice, including the child victim’s family, of antisemitism. To this day, the ADL blames a black man for the murder, despite overwhelming evidence and a jury of his peers convicting Leo Frank.
“It’s time for a little history lesson about the Anti-Defamation League,” Peters said at the segment’s opening, before exposing the ADL’s ties to Israeli intelligence and anti-American spy rings, then dropping the hammer, reminding the American People that the far-left ADL is rooted in the defense of a murderous pedophile and the actual defamation of an innocent black man.
“The ADL’s origins go back more than 100 years. They go to an infamous murder case in Georgia,” explained Peters.
“Leo Frank was the Jewish manager of a factory in Atlanta that relied on child labor,” Peters went on. “One of Frank’s workers, a 13-year-old girl named Mary Phagan was found raped and murdered in that factory.”
“Frank was put on trial, convicted ultimately and unanimously despite hiring the best legal team that money could buy, and [was] sentenced to death,” said Peters.
“But, after heavy political lobbying, Georgia’s Governor commuted Frank’s sentence to life in prison. So an outraged group of Georgia citizens calling themselves the ‘Knights of Mary Phagan’ broke into Frank’s jail, kidnapped him, and hanged him in Marietta, Georgia.”
Years later, thanks to massive political pressure from the ADL, Frank was given a symbolic pardon by Georgia’s state government, even over the objections of young Mary Phagan’s family, who, as Peters explained in the segment, “strongly believed that Frank was guilty.”
The case has received renewed interest in recent weeks, as a musical falsely proclaiming Leo Frank’s innocence once again plays on Broadway, and after the ADL marked the anniversary of Frank’s death by claiming that he was an innocent casualty of antisemitism.
“Last week, ADL leader Jonathan Greenblatt marked the anniversary of Frank’s death with a tweet, calling him the victim of an unjust conviction motivated by, of course, antisemitism,” Peters explained.
“But the ADL got something unexpected. The new Twitter or X community notes system – that’s the new post-Elon Musk system where people can add helpful, factual notes to the bottom of tweets.”
“Before Musk, the ADL practically ran Twitter’s censorship regime. Well now, censorship is at least superficially mostly gone and the fact-checking is in the hands of the people,” said Peters.
“[Leo Frank] raped and murdered a 13-year-old white girl and tried to frame the illiterate black night janitor,” the community notes attached to Greenblatt’s post read, exposing Leo Frank for the racist pedophilic murderer that he was, and exposing the ADL for the racist, pro-pedophile, pro-child killers that they are.
“His pardon, 73 years after his death, does not clear him of the accused crime and was likely politically-motivated,” the community notes went on to say, citing multiple web links.

Liberal City's Police Chief Resigns Amid Crime Spike, Cop Shortages
Police Chief Joseph Chacon announced his retirement from the Austin Police Department (APD) on Monday due to the city’s surging crime and cop shortage.
“A few months ago, I began seriously considering retirement and after long conversations with my wife and family, and thoughtful prayer, I have now made the decision that the moment is right to hang it up on a 25 year career with APD,” Chacon wrote in a statement Monday shared on Twitter.
Robin Henderson, Chacon’s chief of staff, is set to fill the retiring police chief’s position after being asked by Interim City Manager Jesús Garza. He will serve until a new police chief is named following a national search expected to last several months. Whether Henderson seeks to permanently go for the job is not yet known.
The date of Chacon’s departure has yet to be announced. However, Henderson will be appointed in the first week of September. Chacon “will take on an advisory role for a short time to ensure a smooth transition.”
The 55-year-old retiring police chief expressed dissatisfaction with the APD’s 330 vacancies in an address to the community Monday. Patrol ranks have the most empty positions. The Texas Department of Public Safety partnered with the APD from March to July, per the efforts of Mayor Kirk Watson.
“Where we sit in staffing today, I’m disappointed,” Chacon said. “I want us to get back to a place where we have more Austin police officers out there.”
Chacon became Austin police Chief two years ago, during the aftermath of the BLM protests and disputes over policing in May 2020. He dealt with conflict both inside his department and among the community.
“I thank Chief Chacon for serving as our Chief of Police and doing it with professionalism,” Watson said. “The role of Chief is not an easy one. Chief Chacon approached the job with an obvious desire to support his team and to protect our community.”

50K Migrants Apprehended in Texas Based Border Sector in 15 Days
Border Patrol agents in the five Texas-based sectors apprehended nearly 50,000 migrants during the first 15 days of August. This is despite the blistering temperatures endangering the lives of migrants attempting to enter the United States between ports of entry illegally.
Border Patrol agents assigned to the Rio Grande Valley, Laredo, Del Rio, Big Bend, and El Paso Sectors apprehended approximately 49,500 migrants who crossed the border between ports of entry between August 1 and August 15, according to unofficial Border Patrol reports obtained from a law enforcement source.
During the 15-day period, the Rio Grande Valley Sector agents apprehended more migrants than any other Border Patrol sector. Agents took nearly 23,700 migrants into custody so far this month. The Tucson Sector fell to second with the apprehension of nearly 22,250 migrants.
This was followed by more than 13,000 in the Del Rio Sector and nearly 12,000 in the El Paso Sector. The Laredo and Big Bend Sectors rounded out the Texas-based sectors with approximately 1,400 and 280, respectively.
Agents in the nine southwest Border Patrol sectors apprehended more than 83,000 migrants during this period. The official report from U.S. Customs and Border Protections is expected to be released any day. Unofficial numbers indicate a major spike following the sharp drop in June apprehensions.

Hunter Biden’s Business Partner Used Government Post To Grease Wheels At Latvian Bank Where Hunter Sought Board Seat
Hunter Biden’s business partner used the federal position he was handed during the Obama administration to court an Eastern European company whose board Hunter was eager to join, according to a batch of emails obtained by The Daily Wire through a Freedom of Information Act request.
Eric Schwerin was appointed to the Commission for the Preservation of America’s Heritage Abroad by President Barack Obama in March 2015. The Commission is a tiny federal agency that — like Hunter and Schwerin’s business — sits at the intersection of U.S. government influence in Eastern Europe and raising money from private interests.
The appointment gave Schwerin, who was managing director of Hunter’s now-dissolved firm, the ability to present himself as a U.S. official, negotiate with Eastern European countries about the preservation of Holocaust-era cemeteries, and bring money to the table to fund the preservation projects — raised from private businesses and individuals.
Schwerin attempted to get a Latvian bank acknowledged on a plaque on a Commission project, during the same month that Hunter was seeking a board seat on the company. Schwerin apparently reneged on his efforts to have the bank to fund the genocide memorial after learning that any generosity would be anonymous rather than a public relations coup for the company.
Schwerin’s appointment to the Commission came less than a year after he brought it to Hunter’s attention, according to emails on Hunter’s abandoned laptop reviewed by The Daily Wire. In one September 2014 email, Schwerin sent Hunter an article about the Commission that mentioned its ability “to use its influence to leverage cooperation from foreign governments.”
After the appointment, Schwerin was able travel to Eastern Europe with a special government “Official Passport.” This could be a major perk for Schwerin, given his business with Hunter, Rosemont Seneca Partners, involved making deals in Eastern Europe based almost entirely on the pair’s political connections.
For his first official duty, Schwerin told the Commission he would raise money for the renovation of a memorial in Latvia. In April 2016, then-Commission chair Lesley Weiss wrote to the Latvian contact that Schwerin had a “relationship with Norvik Bank in Riga,” the nation’s capital. “They would contribute the funds,” Weiss stated.
The “relationship” with Norvik Bank, it turned out, was that Hunter’s fraudster business partner, Devon Archer, was a shareholder of Norvik, and Hunter wanted to be extended a lucrative board seat for himself, according to emails on Hunter’s laptop.
But after the Latvian representative explained that the language on a plaque could not be changed because of politics in Latvia, Schwerin said the donation might be contingent on the donor getting publicly credited.
“This makes it a little heavier a lift if they can’t get some recognition. While I believe all charity should be anonymous I think in this case this donor might like to be recognized,” Schwerin wrote on May 5, 2016. He later added, referring to a discussion about changes in the plaque’s language: “I always believe doing something first and not asking for permission is a good strategy in situations like this.”
(The Latvian contact Schwerin and the Commission were working with on the memorial was later revealed to be a former Soviet Union spy, according to Israel Hayom.)

The UN is Building a “Digital Army” To Fight What it Calls “Deadly Disinformation”
The UN is tripling down on its role as an important global player in the “fight against online misinformation” and amplification of the narrative of a supposedly serious threat this allegedly new phenomenon brings to humankind.
Thus UN peacekeepers are adding another task to the duties the member-states fund when they approve their missions meant to help people and countries devastated by war and other disasters: they are now also “building a digital army.”
And according to a writeup on the UN website, “misinformation” is viewed by the world organization in exceedingly alarmist terms as, “deadly,” and posing “existential” risk to such core building blocks of modern societies as democratic institutions and fundamental human rights.
They really do make that connection, verbatim. And they now use the term “war” and “battlefield” to describe (mis)information and other goings on in the media, too.
We’ve heard this before, of course, from the Biden administration regarding the Covid vaccines/pandemic – but the identical wording may or may not be a coincidence.
In order to justify as much as it can this considerable shift in policy and focus from UN’s traditional operations and purpose, the UN article doesn’t talk only about things like undermining epidemic(s)-containing efforts, protecting scientific truths and facts (and, as recent experience has shown, “facts” as well ), and the like.
To prop up the argument, it is claimed that the peacekeeping work itself, and the safety and lives of peacekeepers are also falling victim to “large scale misinformation.”
The UN’s solutions: effectively testing “proactive” approaches to the problem they defined, and doing this in a number of war-torn African countries.
Leading the charge seems to be the UN mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, known as MONUSCO (a French-language acronym).
Then there’s something called the UN Verified initiative, which offers a course free of charge that is supposed to “educate” people in these physically dangerous places on how to keep themselves safe from – online “misinformation.”
This effort expands on several basic topics, including how to recognize “disinformation,” and the UN will also tell you why it is being spread.
Another one is to be able to discern emotional, dramatic, and provocative content (some might say the article from the UN site referenced here might easily qualify.)

School district’s new ‘equitable grading’ practices won’t penalize late work or issue zeros, even for cheating
A Portland, Oregon, school district recently issued new “equitable grading” practices that will require teachers to accept late work without penalty and refrain from giving students zeros, even if they are caught cheating, according to documents obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.
A new district handout titled “Portland Public Schools Equitable Grading Practices Summary” highlights the district’s “rationale” for implementing a so-called “equitable” approach to grading students’ class performance.
“Historical data shows that there are racial disparities in our pass/fail rate in multiple subjects in both middle grades and high school,” the district’s handout stated. “During the pandemic we adjusted our grading to accommodate for some of the inequities in access to curriculum and instruction. This caused many teachers to begin the journey towards equitable grading but has led to a mosaic of grading practices across schools and across the district that is confusing to students and families. We need to organize and consolidate our efforts towards common policies to more consistently and better support students and families with equitable grading.”
The district explained that its new grading practices would be based on Joe Feldman’s book, “Grading for Equity,” which provides a framework based on three pillars — “accurate, bias-resistant, and motivational.”
The PPS handout described the equitable grading practices as “accurate” because they are “based on calculations that are mathematically sound.” Those practices include never giving students a grade of zero. Instead, teachers are told to “provide a minimum grade greater than or equal to 50% for work that does not meet expectations, is incomplete, or is missing.” This guideline also applies to students caught cheating.
Educators are also asked to abandon a 0-100 grading scale and replace it with a 0-4 scale, which it stated is “more mathematically accurate.” Students’ grades will be weighted against their most recent performance instead of assessed over the entire semester.
To combat educators’ “implicit bias,” homework will not be graded. Teachers cannot penalize late work or provide extra credit. Students will be allowed the opportunity to retake tests and redo assignments. “Non-academic factors,” including attendance, performance, effort, attitude, and behavior, will also not be included in students’ grades.
The new guidelines are expected to be implemented districtwide by 2025.
Parents Defending Education’s outreach director Erika Sanzi told the Washington Free Beacon that the district’s framework would harm students.
“These equitable grading policies, however well intended, are a disaster for the students who struggle most and for the students who need accelerated coursework,” Sanzi said.

International Elites Rush to Embrace Clinton Global Initiative
World Bank President Ajay Banga and the Bahamas’ Prime Minister Philip E. Davis will be there. So too Hollywood stars Jose Andres, Orlando Bloom, and Matt Damon. Those are just some of the people who have put their hands up to attend the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) 2023 next month in New York City.
All the Clinton family will be on hand to personally meet them, too, along with major corporations including Cisco, JetBlue and Pfizer, who will help with charitable funding.
Former President Bill Clinton, former Secretary of State and failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, and Clinton Foundation Vice Chair Chelsea Clinton announced Monday the conference this year would seek even more commitments to “address climate change, health care issues, gender-based violence, the war in Ukraine and a host of other issues.”
A subset of the Clinton Foundation, the CGI “convenes global and emerging leaders to create and implement solutions to the world’s most pressing challenges,” according to its website.
The annual call for financial contributions follows a long and controversial tradition with the CGI, an organisation which infamously had its genesis on a celebrity-laden private plane flight to Davos and subsequent assertions of charitable efforts around the globe.
The CGI ended in 2016 as Hillary Clinton launched her presidential campaign.
The year before, donations plummeted by 37 percent amid allegations Clinton used the charity to solicit millions of dollars in donations from foreign governments and corporations in exchange for giving these entities favorable treatment while she served as Secretary of State.
Breitbart News and its senior contributor Peter Schweizer’s book Clinton Cash first revealed the worldwide nexus of shady deal-making between Clinton Foundation donors, their impact and link to the CGI, the six-figure speeches given by Bill Clinton, and the corresponding actions approved by the U.S. State Department while Hillary Clinton was secretary of state.

Former Thai prime minister goes to jail same day parliament elects his ally as leader
The former prime minister was brought to prison to serve an eight year sentence for conflicts of interest and abuse of power.
The parliament of Thailand on Tuesday ended months of deadlock by electing Srettha Thavisin as prime minister, which came on the same day that his political ally, former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra returned from a self-imposed exile and was sent to jail.
The populist Pheu Thai Party backed Srettha, a 60-year-old real estate tycoon, for the position, and he received 482 votes out of 747 possible in the country's bicameral parliament, according to CNN.
King Maha Vajirilongkorn still needs to endorse Srettha before he can officially assume the position of prime minister.
Meanwhile, Pheu Thai founder Thaksin returned to the country Tuesday following more than 15 years of self-imposed exile.
Thaksin, a 74-year-old former telecoms tycoon who owned Manchester City Football Club, was prime minister from 2001 until 2006 when he was ousted in a coup as he attended a United Nations meeting in New York.
The former prime minister was taken into police custody in Bangkok, and he was brought to prison to serve an eight year sentence for conflicts of interest and abuse of power, according to Reuters.

UN has been working with other globalist organizations to "combat disinformation" for years. They are talking about Africa how. Pretty sure Africa is NOT the primary target.
E.g.:
The “information warriors” employed by the WEF pose as regular users of the platform, but their real goal is to disrupt proceedings and subtly plant the seeds of support for the ideology espoused by Klaus Schwab’s WEF. The “information warriors” are focusing their attention on conspiracy forums and the comment sections of YouTube videos.
Announcing the news on a WEF podcast,UN communications director Melissa Flemingsaid “So far, we’ve recruited 110,000 information volunteers, and we equip these information volunteers with the kind of knowledge about how misinformation spreads and ask them to serve as kind of ‘digital first-responders’ in those spaces where misinformation travels.”
