Twitter Allows This: BLM Leader Shaun King Threatens to Name Innocent Cops Who Arrested Kenosha Shooter So They Can Be Hunted Down

Antifa, BLM and young Democrats of America are rioting and pillaging in Kenosha, Wisconsin this week following a police shooting on Sunday.

Numerous businesses have been completely destroyed, police are getting bricked and looters continue to ransack the city.

But this is not enough chaos for the left.

BLM mouthpiece Shaun King (talcum X), who is white, is back to calling for more violence.

Earlier this week Shaun King called for more violence and the dismantling of all police in America.

On Tuesday night BLM leader Shaun King threatened the Kenosha police and outed a member of the police department so they he could be hunted down by the violent left.

Conservative users are regularly censored, banned and shut down on Twitter for nothing remotely as dangerous as Shaun King’s antics.

President Trump’s Twitter account is routinely censored for truthful statements on Twitter.

Shaun King is putting lives in danger.

This is allowed by Twitter if you have the “correct” political beliefs.

Chuck Ross added that this in not the first time for Shaun King!

Rand Paul Delivers Blistering Foreign Policy Attack: "Biden Will Choose War Again"

Among the most notable highlights at last night's Republican National Convention, Senator Rand Paul delivered a blistering take down of Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden's foreign policy, which Paul linked to multiple wars under Democrat administrations spanning decades (going back to Clinton's bombing of Serbia).

“I fear Biden will choose war again,” Paul asserted. “He supported war in Serbia, Syria, Libya. Joe Biden will continue to spill our blood and treasure. President Trump will bring our heroes home.”

“If you hate war like I hate war, if you want us to quit sending $50 billion every year to Afghanistan to build their roads and bridges instead of building them here at home, you need to support President Trump for another term,” said Paul, who has long been a fierce critic of former President Obama's foreign policy, including overt intervention in Libya, and covert action toward destabilizing Syria.

He slammed Biden as a hawk who has “consistently called for more war” and with no signs anything would be different.

Interestingly, Sen. Paul has also in the recent past led foreign policy push back against President Trump - especially over the two times Trump has bombed Syria following alleged Assad chemical attacks, which Paul along with other anti-interventionists across the aisle like Tulsi Gabbard questioned to begin with.

But it appears Paul is firmly supportive of Trump's newly released 50-point agenda for his second term outlining the Commander-in-Chief will “stop endless war” and ultimately bring US troops “home.” The plan still emphasized, however, the administration will “maintain” US military strength abroad while 'wiping' out global terrorism.

“President Trump is the first president in a generation to seek to end war rather than start one. He intends to end the war in Afghanistan. He is bringing our men and women home. Compare President Trump with the disastrous record of Joe Biden, who has consistently called for more war,” Paul said further.

Back during the primaries in 2016, Paul and Trump sparred intensely over national security questions:

Iran & IAEA reveal deal on inspections day after UNSC president dismisses US sanctions 'snap back' bid

Tehran has struck a deal with the UN’s nuclear watchdog to allow inspectors into two suspected former nuclear sites. The breakthrough comes just days after Washington demanded the UN slap Iran with fresh sanctions.

In a joint press statement, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said on Wednesday that “Iran is voluntarily providing the IAEA with access” to the two sites. Inspectors believe that these sites still contain nuclear material, but an Iranian official told Reuters that this information is “fabricated.”

"Iran, like before, is ready to cooperate with the IAEA," Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said on state television after the announcement.

While the IAEA hailed the agreement as a “good faith” gesture from the Islamic Republic, the US remains cynical. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo last week accused Iran of violating the terms of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA, or Iran Deal) – a 2015 accord between Iran and world powers that guaranteed the country some sanctions relief in exchange for a halt to its nuclear program.

Accusing Iran of “significant non-compliance” with the deal, Pompeo requested that the UN Security Council “snap back” sanctions on Tehran. Iran and the US’ allies alike have questioned the legality of Pompeo’s request, given that the US abandoned the nuclear deal in 2018.

China, France, Germany, the UK and Russia – who are all signatories to the deal – have said that they do not recognize the US move. On Tuesday, the current UNSC president dismissed the US call on reintroducing sanctions given the lack of consensus for it.

SpaceX's NASA Contracts Called Into Question After Legislators Finally Wake Up To Musk's China Ties

It turns out the proverbial "deal with the devil" that Elon Musk has made between Tesla and China (a relationship we have called into questions many times, including here and here) could finally be coming back to bite Musk.

It appears that congressional negotiators are starting to take notice of just how cozy Musk and China have becoming over the last few years - and some of them are now "considering whether NASA contracts awarded to Elon Musk's SpaceX represent a potential national security risk" as a result, according to the Washington Examiner.

Let us spoil the inquiry for them: yes. But now, it seems like it's not just us that understands this.

A congressional Republican aide involved in NASA negotiations was quoted as saying:

“What is there to stop them from going to Musk directly and saying, 'We'll call your line of credit early, unless you give us X, Y, or Z?' And, there's no real clarity that there's any kind of mechanism that would stop that other than good behavior by an individual.”

Confirmed: Medical Examiner Thought George Floyd Had ‘Fatal Level’ of Fentanyl in His System at the Time of His Death

The medical examiner who examined George Floyd’s death believed that Floyd had a lethal amount of fentanyl in his system when he died.

We reported on August 4th in a post by Larry Johnson that we had a video and a transcript of the the altercation with police surrounding George Floyd’s death. Both pieces of evidence show that Floyd was as high as a kite when he was arrested on the day of his death. Johnson said: “…the Minnesota Attorney General tried to keep the public from seeing the video…”

Also worth noting that the police were not physically aggressive with Floyd. They did not punch him or jerk him around. Floyd, in his drugged state, was not cooperative. It is a shame that the officers who detained Floyd lacked clairvoyance or the ability to read Floyd’s mind or mentally test the chemical content of his blood. That kind of knowledge might have given them an early clue that Floyd was a dead man walking because of the toxic brew of illegal drugs he had shoved into his system.

FOX9 in Minneapolis reported yesterday:

New exhibits filed in the case against the four former Minneapolis Police Officers accused of murdering George Floyd suggest the Hennepin County Medical Examiner thought George Floyd’s fentanyl levels were at a potentially “fatal level”, but his and other medical examiner’s findings showed he died of a combination of factors.

Six pieces of evidence were filed in the case Tuesday one day after former officer Tou Thao’s attorneys requested the release of the full autopsy reports from the Hennepin County Medical Examiner, the Armed Forces Medical Examiner and the private medical examiners hired by George Floyd’s family.

The Armed Forces Medical Examiner filed a memorandum agreeing with the Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s final conclusion that Floyd’s death was a homicide, saying, “His death was caused by the police subdual and restraint in the setting of severe hypertensive atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, and methamphetamine and fentanyl intoxication.”

Jacob Blake’s family ‘disgusted’ by Kenosha rioting & violence, his mother issues apology to Trump

Julia Jackson, the mother of 29-year-old Jacob Blake who was shot seven times by police during an altercation in Kenosha, Wisconsin, says she and her family are disgusted by the rioting and looting in their city.

“My family and I are very hurt and quite frankly disgusted,” Jackson said in a televised interview.

“And as his mother, please don’t burn up property and cause havoc and tear your own homes down in my son’s name. You shouldn’t do it. People shouldn’t do it anyway, but to use my child or any other mother or father’s child, our tragedy to react in that manner is just not acceptable,” she added.

Jackson gave the interview late on Tuesday night, but her pleas for calm apparently fell on deaf ears as all hell broke loose on the streets of Kenosha for the third night in a row, with deadly consequences, as rioting, looting and shooting intensified.

Jacob Blake’s mom on violence in Kenosha: "My family and I are very hurt. And quite frankly disgusted. And as his mother, please don’t burn up property and cause havoc and tear your own homes down in my son’s name. You shouldn’t do it. … it’s just not acceptable.” pic.twitter.com/T00Fg5MOvj

Two people were killed and a third person was injured in a shooting incident outside a local auto parts store. A police manhunt for the suspect was launched soon after as the victims were taken to hospital for emergency treatment.

Jackson also addressed US President Donald Trump, apologizing for offensive remarks aimed at him by an unnamed family member, as well as for the extreme violence perpetrated in her son’s name, but without her family’s support.

“And also, for President Trump, I’m sorry I missed your call because had I not missed your call, maybe the comments that you made would have been different. And I’m not mad at you at all. I have the utmost respect for you as the leader of our country,” she said.

Greece vows to expand territorial waters to 12 miles. Turkey once said it would be grounds for war

Greece's prime minister has announced his country will soon expand its waters in the Ionian Sea, thus exercising a “sovereign right” which Athens' nemesis Turkey has previously considered a justification for war.

Athens' maritime boundaries will be extended from six to 12 nautical miles in the Ionian Sea, which stretches from the western coast of Greece to the eastern coast of Italy. That's according to a surprise statement by Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, who said the corresponding bill will be submitted to Parliament.

The move comes in line with an “inalienable sovereign right” and is based on the Convention on the Law of the Sea, Mitsotakis clarified.

Greece has recently inked two agreements on defining maritime borders – one with Italy and one with Egypt. The deals, which the prime minister said were of “major historical and political significance,” will be put to a parliamentary vote on Thursday.

The developments are sure to anger Turkey, whose Grand National Assembly stated in 1995 that if Greece unilaterally extended its territorial waters it would be a “casus belli” (provocation for war) for Ankara. Turkey referred to the resolution a few years ago, meaning that it wasn't shelved.

Nat'l Hurricane Center warns Laura will be 'unsurvivable,' 'catastrophic' for Texas, Louisiana

Only a 'few hours' left to escape

As Hurricane Laura barrels towards an expected landfall at the Texas and Louisiana border Wednesday night, experts are warning that the storm surge will be "unsurvivable" and the damage "catastrophic."

The National Hurricane Center raised the alarm in a grim Twitter post Wednesday morning, noting that the storm would bring destructive waves and could penetrate 30 miles inland between Sea Rim State Park, Texas, and Intracoastal City, Louisiana.

Unsurvivable storm surge with large and destructive waves will cause catastrophic damage from Sea Rim State Park, T… https://t.co/XoRNuN6NNQ

— National Hurricane Center (@National Hurricane Center)1598454600.0

Laura, currently a Category 3 hurricane with 125 mph winds, is expected to strengthen to a Category 4 hurricane by the time it makes landfall later today, the Weather Channel reported.

The report noted that Laura's winds jumped from 75 mph to 125 mph in the 24-hour period ending at 11 a.m. EDT, an increase which "easily meets the definition of rapid intensification in a hurricane."

The outlet advised "residents along the upper Texas and southwest Louisiana coasts [to] finish preparations now for a major hurricane strike" and "follow any evacuation orders issued by local or state officials."

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) repeated the warning Wednesday afternoon, concurring that it is "an unsurvivable storm" and informing residents under mandatory evacuation orders that they only had a "few hours" left to escape its path.

"This is different than Hurricane Harvey, for example, which was a heavy rain event and a flood event," Abbott said. "This is a horrific wind event, especially where the eye will come across the shore … those people are in harm's way."

Oregon Gov. Kate Brown Could Release 400 Prisoners for Virus Fears as Nightly Riots Continue in Portland

Democrat Gov. Kate Brown may release as many as 400 prisoners from state jails for fear of the coronavirus spreading at the same time violent Antifa riots are taking place nightly in Portland.

“Given what we now know about the disease and its pervasiveness in our communities, it is appropriate to review for potential release individuals who face significant health challenges should they contract COVID-19,” Brown wrote in a letter to Colette Peters, administrator of the state’s prison system.

Brown’s concern for prisoners seems in stark contrast to the reality of her state’s second largest city facing nightly riots that have resulted in ongoing injuries to police officers and the destruction of innocent people’s property. And large crowds gathering every night also pose the risk of spreading the virus.

Oregon Live reported on Brown considering putting prisoners into communities:

The plan is significantly more expansive than Brown’s previous pandemic-related commutations. To date, the governor has commuted the sentences of 57 people due to the virus.

In a letter sent to the director of the Oregon Department of Corrections, Brown said those eligible for commutation also must meet other criteria, such as good conduct for the past 12 months. They cannot be doing time for crimes against other people.

Inmates deemed by the Department of Corrections as an “unacceptable safety, security, or compliance risk to the community” will not be released even if they fall into one of the categories the governor has outlined, Brown wrote in her letter.

Brown has asked for a list of “eligible” inmates to be given to her office by September 18.

Three prison inmates have died from the coronavirus among 634 confirmed cases and 177 of those cases are correction workers, according to Oregon Live.

Labour MP Calls Brexit Supporters ‘Absolute Shtbag Racist Wnkers’

In a late-night tweet, Labour MP Neil Coyle accused Brexiteers of being “absolute shtbag racist wnkers”, in the ongoing row over the BBC’s decision to pull the lyrics of Rule, Britannia! and Land of Hope and Glory from this year’s Last Night of the Proms.

In the now-deleted tweet, the MP for Bermondsey and Old Southwark wrote: “I have spent years warning local people that these fat old racists won’t stop blaming the EU when their sht hits the fan. Here they come blaming others. Absolute shtbag racist w*nkers.”

Mr Coyle was responding to a post from Leader of the House of Commons of United Kingdom Jacob Rees Mogg who wrote: “Britons must never be enslaved by political correctness,” after Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s condemned the “wetness” of the BBC for scrapping the lyrics of patriotic songs.

The Labour politician also reportedly wrote: “If you didn’t hate it before, feel free to hate the song now. I’ve never known anyone but sh*tlickers like it tbh,” according to the Huffington Post.

Pro-Family Hungary Birthrates Up Five Per Cent so Far in 2020

Following the enactment of its pro-family policies, Hungary continues to see a growth in birthrates according to Hungarian Family Minister Katalin Novák.

From January to July of 2020, Hungary has seen a five per cent increase in the number of births, 2,488 more than the same period last year for a total of 52,825 births and increasing the country’s birthrate to 1.53 children per woman from 1.44.

Broken down by month, June saw the largest increase at 8.9 per cent and the period of January to February came second with an increase of 8.8 per cent. None of the months this year saw a decrease in births compared to 2019, newspaper Magyar Hirlap reports.

According to the Hungarian Central Bureau of Statistics, fewer people have died in Hungary this year as well, despite the coronavirus outbreak that has swept across Europe. Between January and July, nearly four thousand fewer deaths were recorded than in 2019.

Hungary has been one of the European countries to see the fewest number of coronavirus dearths per capita in Europe with just 613 deaths in a population of 9.7 million. Sweden, which has a population of around 10.1 million, by contrast, has seen 5,813 deaths as of Tuesday the 25th of August.

Marriages have also seen an increase this year with 2,158 more marriages this year compared to 2019.

As part of the pro-family policy enacted by the government of Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, married couples are eligible for a $33,000 cash sum in the form of a loan which is forgiven after the couple has three children.

Earlier this month, Hungarian government spokesman Zoltán Kovács noted that more so-called “baby expecting loans” had been issued in the second half of last year than housing loans.

Prime Minister Orbán has been clear in the past that he views pro-family government policies as an alternative to solve demographic issues, rather than mass migration.

Speaking at the unveiling of a memorial last week, Orban laid out his views on the future of Europe and families when he said that leftists were “experimenting with a godless universe, with the rainbow reshaping of families, with migration and with open societies. Meanwhile, the peoples of Central Europe are in the process of restoring to their rightful place the time-honoured instincts for life, the liberating power of Christianity, the honour of work, national pride and duty towards our parents and children. We are defending our borders and we aim to leave our country to our own children and not to migrants.”

Drug Mules Arrested with 100 Pounds of Meth in Arizona Desert

Border Patrol agents from the Tucson Sector encountered Mexican nationals hiking through the desert carrying backpacks. The agent seized more than 100 pounds of methamphetamine being carried by the “drug mules.”

Tucson Sector agents patrolling near the village of Vaya Chin, Arizona, on Sunday morning encountered three men they suspected to be illegal immigrants, according to information obtained from Border Patrol officials. The three men were wearing backpacks while hiking through the desert.

The agents interviewed the three men and identified them as Mexican nationals illegally present in the United States. A search of the backpacks led to the discovery of small packages containing what the agents believed to be drugs.

The agents then arrested the three illegal aliens and transported them to the station for processing. A test identified the drugs as being positive for the “characteristics of methamphetamine,” officials reported. The smuggled drugs weighed in excess of 100 pounds, officials stated.

Border Patrol officials turned the drugs and the three Mexican nationals over to ICE Homeland Security Investigations agents for further investigation and preparation of charges under drug smuggling and immigration violation charges.

“U.S. Border Patrol’s mission is to protect our nation’s borders,” officials said in a written statement. “Thanks to the vigilance and dedication of Tucson Sector Border Patrol agents, the dangerous drugs seized in this incident will not hit the streets of our nation.”

Elsewhere in Arizona, Yuma Sector Border Patrol agents arrested a U.S. citizen attempting to smuggle drugs through an interior immigration checkpoint. Agents searched a shuttle van that entered the Interstate 8 immigration checkpoint in southwest Arizona.

A K-9 alerted to the possible presence of drugs on one of the passengers. The agents searched the passenger and found packages taped to his body containing 263 grams of fentanyl and 277 grams of black tar heroin. The agents arrested the 19-year-old U.S. citizen on drug smuggling charges.

Mexican Army Finds Narco-Tunnel Under Texas Border

MATAMOROS, Tamaulipas – Mexican military forces found a working narco-tunnel that runs from Matamoros under the Rio Grande to Brownsville, Texas.

The discovery took place on Tuesday afternoon when, according to a statement from Mexico’s Army, troops were conducting routine patrols along the banks of the Rio Grande when they came across the entrance to the underground structure.

The tunnel is between the Arboledas and Pinos neighborhoods, a short distance from Veteran’s International Bridge. The location would place the U.S. entrance near Milpa Verde Street in Brownsville. Photographs provided by the military show the tunnel has wooden support beams and a makeshift power system. It remains unclear if the tunnel was still in use or if the military seized any drugs.

Mortgage Delinquencies Decade High… 54% Of San Francisco Storefronts No Longer In Business… As Permanent Economic Damage Piles up, the Covid Crisis is Looking More Like the Great Recession

Long-term unemployment helped define the Great Recession. Countless networks, relationships and skills that bound employee to employer were ripped apart in the global financial crisis. It took about eight years for the unemployment rate to recover from that brutal dislocation.

Now economists fear it’s happening all over again. The devastating surge in unemployment in March and April was supposed to be temporary, as businesses shuttered to avert the greatest public health crisis in more than a century. Most workers reported they expected to be called back soon.

But nearly half a year later, many of the jobs that were stuck in purgatory are being lost forever. About 33 percent of the employees put on furlough in March were laid off for good by July, according to Gusto, a payroll and benefits firm whose clients include small businesses in all 50 states and D.C. Only 37 percent have been called back to their previous employer.

There were 3.7 million U.S. unemployed who had permanently lost their previous job as of July, according to the Labor Department. That figure doubled from February to June, held steady in July, and is expected to hit between 6.2 million and 8.7 million by late this year, according to a new analysis from economists Gabriel Chodorow-Reich of Harvard University and John Coglianese of the Federal Reserve Board.

Body of missing Fort Hood soldier, 23, is 'found hanging from a tree' after he alleged sexual abuse at troubled base which has now been linked to at least 15 deaths this year alone

Local police said ID found by the body indicates it may be Sergeant Fernandes

He had transferred units after reporting sexual abuse, officials said on Sunday

The disappearance of Fernandes shed light on a string of tragedies that have plagued the Texas Army base; 15 soldiers connected to base have died this year

The body of a missing soldier is believed to have been found about 30 miles from Fort Hood, the Army base in Texas where he was stationed, police said yesterday.

Identification found with the body in Temple, Texas, indicates the man may be missing Fort Hood soldier Sgt. Elder Fernandes, according to a statement from local police. Forensic confirmation is pending.

The disappearance of Fernandes shed light on the string of tragedies and deaths that have plagued the Texas Army base. It follows the deaths of 15 other soldiers connected to Fort Hood this year alone; foul play is suspected in five of them.

The string of disappearances and deaths at the base led the US Army Secretary to launch an investigation into the base last month. At the time, Secretary Ryan McCarthy said that Fort Hood had one of the highest rates of murder, sexual assault and harassment in the Army.

Temple police received a medical call at 5.36pm saying a male had been seen near some railroad tracks, according to the statement. When officers arrived, they determined the man was dead.

Foul play is not suspected, police said, but the investigation is ongoing. An autopsy has been ordered.

'Our thoughts and prayers are with the Fernandes family during this challenging time,' Temple Police Chief Shawn Reynolds said.

Natalie Khawam, who is representing the Fernandes family, said Army police told family members about the discovery late last night. She said the body was found hanging in a tree.

Roman Polanski loses court case over expulsion from Academy Awards body … after fleeing U.S. in 1978 over underage sex charges

Movie director Roman Polanski, who was expelled from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences over charges of unlawful sex with a 13-year-old girl, on Tuesday lost a court bid to be reinstated as a member.

Polanski, 87, who won an Oscar in 2003, was expelled by the Academy in May 2018 because of the long-standing criminal case which dates back to 1977, City News Service in LA reported.

The director of Chinatown and Rosemary's Baby had argued in a civil lawsuit that he was denied due process by the Academy when it decided to expel him under a code of conduct drawn up in response to sexual misconduct allegations against dozens of men in the entertainment industry.

Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Mary H. Strobel wrote in a ruling on Tuesday that Polanski was 'given the opportunity to present any evidence he deemed relevant' to the Academy, including a lengthy brief from his attorney and a video statement, City News reported.

Polanski, who is French and Polish, fled the United States in 1978 after being charged with the statutory rape of a 13 year-old girl, and has never returned.

Several other women have accused him in recent years of sexual misconduct, all of which he has denied.

Despite the allegations, Polanski won an Oscar in 2003 for directing World War Two drama The Pianist as well as a best director award at France's Cesar Awards this past February that caused several women to walk out in protest.

Florida GOP Congressman Brian Mast's lewd jokes about raping 15-year-old girls posted 10 years ago when he was in the army resurface during tough re-election battle

A Florida congressman facing a tough re-election battle has been forced to apologize after joking about rape and sex with 15-year-old girls in old Facebook comments.

Brian Mast, a 40-year-old Army veteran and double amputee, made the remarks to a friend, Rocco LeDonni, who is now his campaign manager.

The Republican currently represents one of South Florida's most competitive swing districts, and is battling against Democratic challenger Pam Keith to keep his seat.

He apologized for the remarks on Tuesday.

Michigan-born Mast, who was elected in 2016, served in the Army from 2000 to 2010, when he was injured by an IED in Afghanistan, losing both his legs.

He made the offensive comments in 2009 and in 2011.

In February 2009, LeDonni posted a photo of his vacation to South Africa.

Mast commented: 'im so proud of you… i hope you hook up with at least fifteen 15 year olds over there…. its legel there right.'

Two years later, LeDonni asked in a May 20, 2011, post: 'Anyone have any good pick up lines for this weekend considering according to the crazy christian radio guy the world may end on sunday?'

Mast, by then convalescing at Walter Reed Army Medical Center, responded: 'How about don't turn this rape into a murder.'

Mast has been seen as a rising star in the Republican party.

Millions in Executive Payouts for Bankrupt California Oil Giant

Nine CRC Executives Could Get Up to $57 Million Over Next Year

A federal judge in Houston late yesterday approved an incentive package worth up to $57 million for top executives as part of bankruptcy proceedings for oil giant California Resources Corporation.

Nine executives with the company, which is California’s biggest oil and gas producer, would get the high-dollar payouts if they meet certain metrics over the next year as part of CRC’s Chapter 11 bankruptcy claim, filed last month.

The potential executive payouts are nearly double the $29 million in back taxes the company owes to Kern, Ventura and Orange counties. In all, the state’s largest driller is seeking bankruptcy protection to wipe out more than $5 billion in debt and equity interests.

“After laying off hundreds of workers, polluting California’s environment and failing to pay taxes, CRC is piling execs into a luxury getaway car and stepping on the gas,” said Hollin Kretzmann, an attorney at the Center for Biological Diversity. “If company officials have the money for big-bucks incentive payments, they can pay their taxes and do environmental cleanup. It’s time for Gov. Newsom to step in and prove he’s with Californians over fat cat polluters.”

The Center has called on Gov. Gavin Newsom to intervene in the company’s bankruptcy proceedings to ensure it sets aside enough money for well cleanup.

CRC and its affiliates operate approximately 18,700 wells in California, which could cost more than $1 billion to properly plug, according to the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis. Of these 7,826 are already “idle,” which means they’ve produced no oil in the past two years.

So far in 2020, Gov. Newsom has issued more than 500 permits to CRC for drilling new wells, reworking existing wells and other dangerous activities.

It is vitally important to acknowledge that the same so-called “experts” in the medical/academic/scientific community, many of whom have serious undisclosed financial conflicts of interest at the NIH, the CDC, the NIAID, the FDA, the WHO, Medical Schools, teaching hospitals and many state Departments of Health (not just Rhode Island) that are currently advising politicians, presidential candidates, presidents, senators, congresspersons, governors, mayors, educators and journalists about the experimental, fast-tracked Covid-19 vaccines are the very “experts” that pushed Merck’s Fast-tracked Gardasil (and GlaxoSmithKline’s Cervarix HPV Vaccine).

–Gary G. Kohls, August 24, 2020

***

The national law firm of Baum, Hedlund, Aristei & Goldman filed a Gardasil lawsuit against Merck today on behalf of a 19-year-old woman, alleging the company misled the FDA, legislators, doctors and moms about the safety and efficacy of its Gardasil vaccine. The lawsuit asserts Merck purposely downplayed the risk of Gardasil’s ingredients, including a proprietary aluminum compound (a potent neurotoxin) and secret and potentially hazardous DNA particles. Plaintiff Julia Balasco alleges she suffered and continues to suffer severe and permanent physical injuries such as an autoimmune disease known as postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) after receiving multiple injections of the human papillomavirus (HPV) Gardasil vaccine.

Attorneys Bijan Esfandiari, Nicole K. H. Maldonado, Michael L. Baum, co-counsel Robert F. Kennedy, Jr and local counsel Christopher E. Hultquist of Hultquist Law in Providence, filed the lawsuit in U.S. District Court for the District of Rhode Island on behalf of Ms. Balasco, who alleges her vaccine injuries were so severe and debilitating, she was physically unable to attend most of high school. The case number is 1:20-cv 00364.

Here’s How a Cashless Society Would Affect Day to Day Life

Have you ever thought about the ramifications of a cashless society? I’m talking about the real, first-person effects, not some ephemeral conspiracy theory or possible biblical prophecy. This is bad news for a lot of reasons, not the least of which are the ways it would affect day-to-day life.

Here’s my definition of a cashless society, so we’re all singing from the same songbook:

Cash would no longer be legal tender, therefore you could not make purchases with it, pay bills with it, or spend it in any way. You would not be able to deposit cash into your bank account so you wouldn’t be able to accept cash for an exchange of goods or services.

Therefore, cash would be nothing more than a worthless piece of paper. (I know, I know. Debt-based currency is a totally different article though.)

We’re heading this way. Jose recently wrote that Venezuela is rapidly becoming cashless and here in the United States a concerning early sign is that there is a “change shortage” which is causing many stores to give you your change on a store loyalty card or invite you to donate that change to some cause.

Gifts

Think of all the times that cash is an appropriate gift. I’ve always given money, like stuffing a child’s birthday card with a $20 bill or giving a new graduate some cash to put toward college expenses. When I got married, we received quite a bit of money from various loved ones. My dad always gave my daughters some spending money of their own each time we visited and they were surprised and delighted every single time.

However, in a cashless society, there are two problems with this.

First of all, the recipient would not be able to use the cash. He or she would not be able to spend or deposit it.

Secondly, if a monetary gift is given, it would have to be done with a check or electronic transfer. This means that the government (and the Tax Man) would know precisely how much money any person is given. That might not be a big deal for the 7-year-old who got $20 from grandpa, but what about the graduate who raked in a couple thousand in gifts from family members to celebrate his or her accomplishments? At what point will the government have their hands out for “their fair share?”

Side Gigs

A lot of folks are really struggling right now with the COVID shutdowns. Jobs have been lost, hours have been cut, and financial problems abound. One of the ways that these people are making ends meet is with side gigs. Folks are cutting grass, cleaning houses, driving for Uber, delivering food, babysitting – they’re coming up with all sorts of ways to make some extra money. A huge percentage of these people are being paid in cash.

But if suddenly you can no longer spend your cash, you’d need to be paid electronically. How many people who don’t already have a business have a merchant account for taking credit or debit cards? There are options like Paypal and Venmo, which take a percentage fee, but they’re going to have to figure out something.

And then, as above, every single bit of this side gig money is traceable and trackable. This could quickly turn your 20 bucks from lawn mowing into $15 after taxes.

The CIA Democrats in the 2020 elections

August 23, 2020 "Information Clearing House" - In the course of the 2018 elections, a large group of former military-intelligence operatives entered capitalist politics as candidates seeking the Democratic Party nomination in 50 congressional seats—nearly half the seats where the Democrats were targeting Republican incumbents or open seats created by Republican retirements.

Some 30 of these candidates won primary contests and became the Democratic candidates in the November 2018 election, and 11 of them won the general election, more than one-quarter of the 40 previously Republican-held seats captured by the Democrats as they took control of the House of Representatives.

In 2020, the intervention of the CIA Democrats continues on what is arguably an equally significant scale: besides the reelection campaigns of the 11 representatives who won seats in the House in 2018, half a dozen of those who lost 2018 races are running again in 2020. Some of these are running for House seats again, while others have been promoted by the Democratic Party leadership and are running for the US Senate. And an entire new crop of military-intelligence operatives is being brought forward, some running for Republican seats targeted by the Democratic leadership as possible takeovers, others in seats not currently considered competitive.

The bottom line: at least 34 Democratic candidates for the House of Representatives have a primarily military-intelligence background, up from 30 in 2018, as well as three of the party’s 35 candidates for the US Senate, compared to zero in 2018. For each branch of Congress, this represents about 10 percent of the total.

As we explained in 2018, the extraordinary influx of candidates coming directly from the national-security apparatus into the Democratic Party is a two-sided process: the Democratic Party establishment welcomes such candidates as a demonstration of the party’s unshakeable devotion to the interests of American imperialism; and military-intelligence operatives are choosing the Democratic Party over the Republican Party in large numbers because they are attracted by the Democrats’ non-stop campaign against the Trump administration as too “soft” on Russia and too willing to pull out of the Middle East war zone.

CIA Democrats for US Senate

Three Democrats seeking US Senate seats in November have a primarily military-intelligence background, including two who ran unsuccessfully for House seats in 2018. In each case, the CIA Democrat won a contested primary, with the support of Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC), defeating a more liberal candidate.

Pennsylvania, 13th Congressional District: Todd Rowley, a retired FBI counterintelligence officer, is the Democrat opposing first-term Republican John Joyce. Rowley is a former policeman, state trooper and paramedic who spent 24 years as an FBI agent engaged primarily in paramilitary and counterintelligence operations, including liaison with the CIA and the Director of National Intelligence.

Maryland, 1st Congressional District: Mia Mason is a retired 20-year military veteran, who “completed a total of 5 combat tours between Iraq and Afghanistan while serving in the Navy and Army,” according to her campaign website. She was discharged from the military for being gay and then brought back in. She was “onboard USS Kitty Hawk CV-63 for Operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom.” She is opposing five-term Republican incumbent Andy Harris in a district that comprises the rural eastern shore of Maryland.

Pennsylvania, 14th Congressional District: William Marx retired from the Marines after a 16-year career and is now a high school teacher and local councilman. He is running against first-term incumbent Republican Guy Reschenthaler in this southwest Pennsylvania seat.

Midwest

Ohio, 14th Congressional District: Hillary O’Connor Mueri was a Navy pilot, who flew combat missions during the Iraq war to provide close air support to ground forces. She went to law school after the military, specializing in product litigation in the aviation industry. Mueri is running against four-term incumbent David Joyce in a mixed suburban and rural district extending northeast from Cleveland along Lake Erie.

Wisconsin, 1st Congressional District: Roger Polack was recruited by the US intelligence services while a student at the University of Wisconsin and trained to specialize in Asian affairs. His web site declares: “Roger served multiple tours as a civilian intelligence officer in Afghanistan, spending 20 months on the ground first as an analyst for, and then Deputy Director of, the Afghanistan Threat Finance Cell. He sat face to face with Taliban detainees, helped plan law enforcement and military operations, and managed the intelligence priorities of 40 civilian and military staff.”

In other words, the Democratic candidate in the district formerly held by Republican Paul Ryan, now by first-term Republican Bryan Steil, should be investigated for possible connections to torture and assassination. But in the eyes of the Democratic Party leadership, this record is a credential, not the mark of Cain.

Indiana, 3rd Congressional District: Chip Coldiron is an Army veteran deployed twice to Afghanistan, who became a health care worker and then schoolteacher after leaving the military. He is running against four-term incumbent Jim Banks in a district centered on Ft. Wayne.

South

Kentucky, 6th District: Josh Hicks is a Marine veteran turned policeman. In his four years on active duty, he was deployed twice with the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit, rising to the rank of sergeant. He went to work as a policeman in eastern Kentucky, becoming a member of the SWAT team. He is running against four-term incumbent Andy Barr in a district centered on the city of Lexington.

North Carolina, 11th Congressional District: Morris Davis is the former chief prosecutor at the Guantanamo Bay prison camp, although he was forced out by the Bush administration because he objected to the use of testimony obtained through torture of detainees. The Guantanamo posting was the culmination of a 25-year military career as a Judge Advocate General in the Air Force. Davis is running for the Asheville-based seat formerly held by Mark Meadows, now White House Chief of Staff for Trump. He was initially a heavy underdog to 25-year-old Madison Cawthorn, a right-wing activist who won an upset victory in the Republican primary, but Cawthorn is now caught up in a scandal over social media postings of his trip to see Hitler’s vacation hideaway in the Bavarian Alps, which he tweeted was “on his bucket list” of must-see locations.

Georgia, 1st Congressional District: Joyce Marie Griggs retired with the rank of lieutenant colonel after a 33-year career in Army intelligence. She won the Democratic primary to face incumbent three-term Republican Buddy Carter in a district centered the city of Savannah. According to her website: “Among her many decorations, medals, and badges are the Bronze Star, Defense Meritorious Service, and Global War on Terrorism Service medals, and the Parachutist badge.” Griggs had three tours in Iraq in 2007, 2008 and 2010.
