Why is Biden doing that warning thing about votes being counted for several days after the election?

Trade Deficit increased to $73.3 Billion in September

The U.S. Census Bureau and the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis announced today that the goods and services deficit was $73.3 billion in September, up $7.6 billion from $65.7 billion in August, revised. September exports were $258.0 billion, $2.8 billion less than August exports. September imports were $331.3 billion, $4.8 billion more than August imports.

Exports decreased and imports increased in September. Exports are up 22% year-over-year; imports are up 14% year-over-year. Both imports and exports decreased sharply due to COVID-19 and have now bounced back. The blue line is the total deficit, and the black line is the petroleum deficit, and the red line is the trade deficit ex-petroleum products. Note that net, exports of petroleum products are slightly positive. The trade deficit with China increased to $37.3 billion in September, from $36.4 billion a year ago. The trade deficit was slightly higher than the consensus forecast.

RI man charged in ‘disturbance’ after approaching NH Senate candidate Don Bolduc before a debate

By Boston 25 News Staff

November 03, 2022 at 11:03 am EDT

New Hampshire’s Republican candidate for US Senate Don Bolduc was the target of a physical altercation prior to Wednesday’s debate against Democratic incumbent Maggie Hassan, his campaign says.

On Thursday, the Goffstown Police Department said a man from Rhode Island is now facing charges as a result of the ‘disturbance.”

Police identified the man as 37-year-old Joseph Hart of Greenville, RI. The arrest preceded a debate at St. Anselm College for the US Senate race featuring Bolduc and Hassan.

“Prior to that debate, dozens of supporters were on hand for both candidates, said police in a statement. “During that time, St. Anselm College instructed a male party that they were no longer welcome on their property.”

“A short time later, a disturbance occurred when Mr. Hart approached Mr. Bolduc who was greeting his supporters,” according to Goffstown Police. “Officers converged on the area and all parties were separated. Following that disturbance, Mr. Hart was taken into custody by the Goffstown Police Department and charged with criminal trespass and disorderly conduct.”

Hart was released on personal recognizance bail and will be arraigned on December 1 at the Goffstown District Court.

“This incident is under investigation,” said Goffstown police.

Bolduc’s campaign released a statement on Wednesday about the incident and alleged that a man tried to hit Bolduc.

“As the General said on stage tonight, it’s time to lower the temperature of the political discourse in this country. Prior to the debate, an individual in the crowd gathered outside attempted to punch the General and was quickly apprehended and arrested. We are grateful to the quick response from law enforcement on the scene,” said a Bolduc campaign manager.

On Wednesday night, a spokesperson for the Hassan campaign blamed the incident on supporters of the Libertarian Party.

“Disgusting behavior,” said Kevin Donohoe from the Hassan campaign in a post to social media. "We saw this same libertarian party activist get aggressive with our campaign volunteers at this debate and the last.”

Wednesday’s debate between Bolduc and Hassan was the third and final debate prior to next Tuesday’s election.

UN Security Council rejects Russian call for biological weapons probe

Russia got support only from China in the vote, with the US, Britain and France opposing the Russian resolution and the 10 other nations abstaining.

Russian Ambassador to the United Nations Vasily Nebenzya (Craig Ruttle/AP/PA)

By Edith M Lederer, Associated Press

November 02 2022 10:07 PM

The UN Security Council has overwhelmingly rejected Russia’s attempt to establish a commission to investigate its unfounded claims that Ukraine and the United States are carrying out “military biological” activities that violate the convention prohibiting the use of biological weapons.

Russia got support only from China in the vote, with the US, Britain and France opposing the Russian resolution and the 10 other council nations abstaining.

The 2-3-10 vote reflected the council’s continuing opposition and scepticism about Russia’s actions since its February 24 invasion of Ukraine.

Russia had circulated a 310-page document to council members last week alleging that this biological activity is taking place in Ukraine with support from the US Defence Department.

The document included an official complaint to the Security Council, allowed under Article VI of the 1972 biological weapons convention, and a draft resolution that would authorise the Security Council to set up a commission comprising the 15 council members to investigate Russia’s claims.

Russia’s initial allegation of secret American biological warfare labs in Ukraine, made soon after its invasion of its smaller neighbour, has been disputed by independent scientists, Ukrainian leaders and officials at the White House and Pentagon.

Ukraine does have a network of biological labs that have funding and research support from the US. They are owned and operated by Ukraine and are part of an initiative called the Biological Threat Reduction Programme that aims to reduce the likelihood of deadly outbreaks, whether natural or manmade.

Russia’s UN Ambassador Vassily Nebenzia accused the US of conducting work in Ukraine with deadly pathogens — including cholera, plague, anthrax and influenza — that could not be justified under the guise of public health. He said documents and evidence recovered by Russian authorities suggested a military application.

Pfizer announces two-in-one vaccine for Covid AND flu — which it hopes will boost sluggish uptake for both shots

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-11386139/Pfizer-announces-two-one-vaccine-Covid-flu.html

Pfizer is testing a new vaccine that inoculates against Covid and flu amid sluggish uptake of both shots.

The first patient was given the two-in-one vaccine this week as clinical trials got underway. In total 180 patients will be recruited for the study.

Pfizer's new shot targets the Omicron variant and its offshoots as well as four strains of influenza.

Rival vaccine-maker Moderna is also testing a vaccine targeting Covid and flu, as well a triple-shot that also immunizes against RSV.

None are expected to be ready for this year's flu season, which is already the worst in over a decade, piling pressure on hospitals.

Uptake of the updated bivalent booster vaccine is lagging in the US, with just a handful of Americans who are eligible coming forward.

Pfizer revealed that the first patient was injected in its Phase 1 trials this week.

These tests are to ensure the vaccine is safe and effective and to work out the best dose.

But the new vaccine will need to go through more tests before it can be rolled out nationwide.

The trial will recruit 180 people in the US who are between 18 and 64 years old, who will be followed for six months and compared to a control group who did not get the shot.

All participants are required to have received at least three doses of the Pfizer Covid vaccine, or a primary series plus a booster.

A Pfizer spokesperson said there were no plans to develop this vaccine to replace the standard two-dose Covid jab.

Annaliesa Anderson, chief scientific officer in vaccine research and development at Pfizer, said mRNA technology was 'well suited' to tackling other viruses.

'Pfizer is deeply proud of our continued work to explore its potential to protect against influenza and Covid in one combination vaccine,' she said.

'We think [this] could simplify immunisation practices against these two respiratory pathogens, potentially leading to better vaccine uptake for both diseases.

'Even with existing seasonal influenza vaccines, the burden of this virus is severe across the world causing thousands of deaths and hospitalisations every year.'

Currently the flu vaccine is rolled out every year to shore up immunity against the virus among those who are more vulnerable.

But scientists expect the Covid shot will also be needed annually, spurring efforts to combine them to avoid the need for two vaccines.

This autumn the US Government began rolling out an updated bivalent booster vaccine, that targets Omicron variants BA.4 and BA.5.

But uptake has been slow with just 22million of the 226million eligible — or 10 per cent — having come forward more than a month into the roll out.

Medics have blamed a general sense of the Covid pandemic being over for the low uptake.

Vaccinations with the flu shot are also lagging with 128million shots distributed so far this year, compared to 156million at this time during the first winter of the pandemic, a drop of 18 per cent.

Pfizer shot to the second most profitable pharmaceutical company in the world last year buoyed by the success of its Covid vaccines — making $21.98billion.

Yesterday it revealed its experimental RSV vaccine was highly effective, reducing the risk of hospitalization in infants by 80 per cent.

If you know anything about the US you know that the US will not tolerate someone like Imran Khan. So what does the US do? It coups him. The US used corrupt people in Pakistan to remove him from office.

But then he presented evidence that his removal from office was organized by the US & demanded a new election.

The problem for the US is Imran Khan is very popular & if an election were held today he would win by a landslide & the US knows it.

If he comes back you can bet that he will get even more friendly with Russia & China (two major US adversaries) & continue to show his finger to the US. So who might want to get rid of him to stop him from running as PM? The US!

Beauty pageant organization Miss United States of America LLC cannot be forced to allow biological males who identify as transgender women to compete, an federal appeals court ruled Wednesday. The San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that allowing transgender people to compete in the pageant would interfere with its ability to show “the ideal vision of American womanhood,” according to a report from Reuters. The lawsuit was brought forth by Anita Green, a transgender rights activist, who reportedly claimed that the pageant’s policy of only allowing “natural born women” violates an anti-discrimination law based on gender identity in Oregon.

The Michigan woman, whose identity was not revealed, received the procedure at eleven-weeks gestation, the outlet reported. In the audio, a vacuum can be heard suctioning out the unborn child, as well as the woman’s cries and moans. The segment concludes with a doctor telling the patient that the abortion had been completed. Laughter, sighs of relief, and words of moral support followed from the people in the room.

Tiger Global Halts New Chinese Equities Investments

Longtime China investor Tiger Global Management has hit pause on investing in Chinese equities, said people familiar with the matter, as the firm reassesses its exposure to the world’s second-largest economy after President Xi Jinping cemented his control over the country. Tiger executives, including founder Charles “Chase” Coleman, have told others that Mr. Xi’s reelection and his stacking of the Communist Party’s leadership with loyalists at the recent party Congress could increase geopolitical tensions and means the country’s Zero-Covid policy will likely continue, the people said.

China’s determination to stamp out Covid-19 outbreaks with lockdowns and other restrictions has been a major drag on its economic growth. Concerns about what Beijing might attempt to do with Taiwan, a democratically self-ruled island, also increased after the Chinese Communist Party recently amended its charter to include the phrase “firmly oppose Taiwan independence” and elevated a military commander familiar with Taiwan. Tiger had been shrinking its exposure to Chinese equities, concentrating on a smaller set of companies it knew well and believed in, said people familiar with the move. High valuations in early 2021 also played a role, one of the people said. Tiger further shrank its hedge fund’s China exposure to the mid-single digits heading into the congress, some of the people said, avoiding some of the carnage that hit Chinese equities as a result of it. The Hang Seng Index in Hong Kong fell 6.4% on Oct. 24, the biggest one-day decline since the 2008 global financial crisis. Chinese companies’ American depositary receipts plunged, with the five biggest U.S.-listed Chinese companies as of Oct. 21 losing $52.17 billion in market value in one day. Tiger refrained from buying into the steep selloff, with executives telling clients they are spending more time on opportunities in India and the South Pacific. Investors have been scaling back their China exposure as a series of regulatory crackdowns on internet-platform companies and for-profit education businesses inflicted heavy losses on many funds and highlighted the perils of investing in an authoritarian state. But the recent congress has caused even longtime China bulls to rethink their exposure.

World leaders congratulate Benjamin Netanyahu on return to power in Israel

U.S. Ambassador to Israel Tom Nides congratulated Benjamin Netanyahu for his election win and return to power as Israel's Prime Minister Thursday. Nides tweeted, "I congratulated him on his victory and told him I look forward to working together to maintain the unbreakable bond." Netanyahu, still on trial over corruption charges, will lead a far-right government after Prime Minister Yair Lapid conceded the election to Netanyahu Thursday. Hungary's right-wing Prime Minister Viktor Orban was the first to congratulate Netanyahu, tweeting that "Hard times require strong leaders. Welcome back!" Netanyahu will lead one of the most right-wing governments in Israeli history. And that could mean fundamental changes in Israeli society.

Some Netanyahu allies have talked, for example, about changing the judicial system raising questions as Netanyahu faces a criminal trial.
