China Creates Its Own Digital Currency
https://www.wsj.com/articles/china-creates-its-own-digital-currency-a-first-for-major-economy-11617634118
"China’s version of a digital currency is controlled by its central bank, which will issue the new electronic money. It is expected to give China’s government vast new tools to monitor both its economy and its people. By design, the digital yuan will negate one of bitcoin’s major draws: anonymity for the user."
"Beijing is also positioning the digital yuan for international use and designing it to be untethered to the global financial system, where the U.S. dollar has been king since World War II. China is embracing digitization in many forms, including money, in a bid to gain more centralized control while getting a head start on technologies of the future that it regards as up for grabs."
[My opinion]
What does it mean to be "untethered to the global financial system"? [Is there a better way of wording that phrase too? - It looks like journalists' sentence structure is also suffering.]
What does it mean to be "untethered to the global financial system"? Does it mean that it will not be exchangeable for any other currency? A kind of "token" to exchange for food, accommodation, entertainment…etc? A "food ration card"?
Will all payments made by the Chinese people will be tracked? It looks like they are closing a hole in the reputation system.
How will the Chinese people pay for prostitutes?

US Grant To Wuhan Lab To Enhance Bat-Based Coronaviruses Was Never Scrutinized By HHS Review Board, NIH Says
The National Institutes of Health has “systematically thwarted” government oversight of dangerous pathogen research, Rutgers University professor of chemical biology Richard H. Ebright told the Daily Caller News Foundation.
The P3CO Review Framework was created in 2017 after a three-year pause on government funding of research that intentionally makes pathogens more deadly or transmissible.
An NIH grant that involved the modification of bat-based coronaviruses and the transfer of $600,000 to the Wuhan Institute of Virology prior to the pandemic bypassed P3CO review because the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, led by Anthony Fauci, didn’t flag the project for review.
An oversight board created to scrutinize research that would enhance highly dangerous pathogens did not review a National Institutes of Health grant that funded a lab in Wuhan, China, to genetically modify bat-based coronaviruses.
Experts say the NIH grant describes scientists conducting gain-of-function research, a risky area of study that, in this case, made SARS-like viruses even more contagious. Federal funding for gain-of-function research was temporarily suspended in 2014 due to widespread scientific concerns it risked leaking supercharged viruses into the human population.
Federal funding for gain-of-function research was resumed in late 2017 after the Potential Pandemic Pathogens Control and Oversight (P3CO) Framework was formed within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The review board is tasked with critically evaluating whether grants that involve enhancing dangerous pathogens, such as coronaviruses, are worth the risks and that proper safeguards are in place.
But the NIH subagency that awarded the grant to the nonprofit group EcoHealth Alliance to study Chinese bat coronaviruses opted against forwarding it to the P3CO committee, an NIH spokesperson told the Daily Caller News Foundation, meaning the research received federal funding without an independent review by the HHS board.
“This is a systemic problem,” Rutgers University professor of chemical biology Richard H. Ebright told the DCNF, referring to the loophole in the review framework.
Ebright said the offices of the director for the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) — the subagency that funded EcoHealth — and the NIH have “systematically thwarted–indeed systematically nullified–the HHS P3CO Framework by declining to flag and forward proposals for review.”
Dr. Anthony Fauci leads the NIAID and Dr. Francis S. Collins heads the NIH.
An NIH spokesperson said its subagency did not flag the EcoHealth grant for independent review by the HHS review committee.
“After careful review of the grant, NIAID determined research in the grant was not gain-of-function research because it did not involve the enhancement of the pathogenicity or transmissibility of the viruses studied,” the spokesperson told the DCNF.

This same trend is true for the northern border, just to a lesser proportion. 2019 was just crazy
CANADIAN CITIZENS CONSISTENTLY MAKE UP AROUND 10% OF APPREHENDED INDIVIDUALS ON NORTHERN BORDER.
In May 2020 The Border Report discussed the rising numbers of illegals crossing into the United States on its northern border.
The number of people apprehended for illegally crossing from Canada into the United States along its northern border has nearly tripled over the past three years, and a growing portion are Mexican citizens, according to federal data.
One Mexican man who crossed illegally to work on a Vermont dairy farm said it was easier than trying the southern border.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection statistics obtained by The Associated Press after a public records request provide new detail on what was apparent anecdotally: Along the border from Maine to Washington, 446 of the 1,586 illegal crossers apprehended in the 2019 fiscal year were Mexican, or 28%. That’s up from 20 of 558, or just 3.6%, in 2016.
The numbers also increased for Romanians — many identified as ethnic Roma — and other nationalities, such as Haitians and Indians. Those tallies don’t include apprehensions for reasons other than illegal crossings, such as overstaying visas.

Tucker Carlson isn’t the only one speaking out about Trudeau’s internment camps
“What if your next door neighbour suddenly went dangerously insane and starting holding people hostage in his house?” Asked Tucker Carlson during his evening show on Wednesday — the most-watched political show on television.
He was talking about boring old us, Canada, and how under the leadership of Justin Trudeau, “Canada took a dramatic move toward legitimately dangerous authoritarianism.”
He was referring to an order released by Trudeau on Monday, outlining the latest bit of Martial Law being imposed on Canadians.
“Now is not the time to travel. If you have plans to head somewhere for the long weekend, cancel them,” Trudeau instructed.
“For those who need to travel, take note of the measures that are in place when you return to Canada: If you’re flying back into the country, you’ll need to show a negative PCR test result before you board the plane. When you land, you’ll need to take another PCR test. You’ll then have to wait at an approved hotel, and at your own expense, for your results to come back.”
“Approved hotel” it seems, is the latest Trudeau-euphemism for what Carlson more accurately describes as “internment camps.”
Internment camps where YOU pay the bill.
Trudeau continues: “If your results come back negative for COVID-19, you’ll be able to head home and finish your mandatory quarantine there. If your test results come back positive, you’ll need to immediately quarantine in designated government facilities. This is not optional.”
A non-optional stay at a government facility… that sounds a lot like an internment camp. Reaction on Twitter went even darker, where high profile comedians and athletes compared the “hotels” to gulags and concentration camps.
Fortunately for Trudeau, he has his own propaganda machine to cover for his attacks on our rights and freedoms.
Back in October, the CBC assured Canadians that any talk of “internment camps” was false.
“Disinformation campaign falsely suggests Canadians will be forcibly sent to quarantine sites,” read a CBC headline.
According to the fact-checkers over at the state broadcaster, who quote an unnamed Liberal spin doctor to substantiate their report, the feds were merely providing “voluntary quarantine sites” — only to be used by homeless people and international travellers with nowhere else to go.
Voluntary, eh?
The CBC story was not updated or corrected on Monday when Trudeau contradicted their report by informing Canadians that forced stays at these quarantine sites was “not optional.”
“Suddenly Canada is a flagrant violator of the most basic human rights. Fail a covid test and they will lock up without trial,” said Tucker Carlson.
Why does it take the host of an American cable news show to say what Canadian journalists and activists should be filling newspapers and airways condemning?
Canada’s pundit class is too busy ho-humming about a possible spring election to notice or care about the usurping of Habeas corpus.
Fortunately for Canadians, not everyone is burying their head in the sand. I spoke to the lawyers at the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF), who outlined the many ways that Trudeau’s orders are in fact unconstitutional, and how they are fighting back.
JCCF President John Carpay explained that this order could violate Section 7 of the Charter — the right to life, liberty and security of person.
Carpay explained that a government locking people up against their will, with no due process, no presumption of innocence and an absence of a timely trial before an independent and impartial court, were all red flags.
He told me that his organization was fighting back, and initiating “court action against these hotel-prisons.”
Jay Cameron, one of the JCCF lawyers on that case, called this “the essence of authoritarianism” and expressed concern that “Parliament has not considered or voted on the forced internment of Canadians.”
Likewise, Sayed Hassan, the other JCCF lawyer on the case, pointed out that the location of these forced quarantine hotels is unknown.
“There should be no room in a free and democratic society for secret federal facilities,” he said.
This is Justin Trudeau’s Canada.

Flying Fox is the world’s 14th largest yacht. She is available for charter. Italian media have called her ‘Jeff Bezos Yacht’, although Amazon released a statement denying his involvement.
The yacht was recently delivered by Lurssen Yachts. She was known as project SHU. Her name was changed into Flying Fox on AIS data. Her first destination was Norway. Since then she spent some time in the Med, visiting Cannes, Capri, and Sardinia. In the winter of 2019/2020, she spent time in the Maldives and did some charters. In June 2020 she arrived back in the Med.

Biden regime erases US Border Patrol press release on capture of two Yemeni terrorists crossing open southern border
Two men of military age from Yemen who were on the FBI's terrorism watch list, as well as on the No-Fly List, were arrested after illegally crossing the U.S. border in January and March.
Customs and Border Patrol agents arrested the Yemenis a few kilometers from the Calexico Port of entry in California.

Through the Bannon War Room:
The Biden regime removed a press release from the US Customs and Border Protection Service about the capture of two Yemeni terrorists on the watch list.
Todd Bensman of the Center for Immigration Studies told War Room that terrorists are a serious threat to national security.
"One was on the do not fly list," Bensman said. "Being on the watch list is bad enough. Being on the do not fly list is a big red alert, the bell rings, five national security fire alarms.”
Bensman, the author of the U.S. covert war on jihadist infiltration along the southern border, said one of the terror suspects hid a cell phone SIM card in the sole of his shoe.
