Missouri Man Sentenced For Role In Largest "Organic Food" Fraud In American History

A north Missouri businessman who was involved in the largest organic fraud scheme in American history has been sentenced to probation and fined. According to KTTN, federal prosecutors in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, sentenced Steven Whiteside of Chilicothe to three years probation and a fine of 45-thousand dollars.

Two other Northwest Missouri men were sentenced to federal prison for their roles in the 142-million dollar grain fraud scheme, which federal prosecutors describe as the “Field of Schemes.”

Steven Whiteside of Chillicothe pleaded guilty in December to signing a document that allowed Randy Constant to sell conventionally raised grain as certified organic and receive a higher premium.

Federal prosecutors say Whiteside received $177-thousand for grain that Constant resold to animal feed producers. They had asked for a one-year term in prison for Whiteside. His defense attorney argued he received a lesser sentence for having a clean record and having family obligations.

Constant, also of Chillicothe, killed himself in 2019, three days after being sentenced to 10 years in federal prison for wire fraud. Four other farmers, one from Missouri and three from Nebraska, received prison sentences for their role in the long-running scheme.

Back in December, the DOJ said that Constant admitted the fraudulent scheme involved at least $142,433,475 in grain sales, and the vast majority of those sales were fraudulent. From 2010 to 2017, Constant misled customers into thinking they were buying certified organic grain when the grain he was selling was not organic. Constant admitted falsely telling customers the grain he sold was grown on his certified organic fields in Nebraska and Missouri when the grain was not organic either because he purchased the grain from other growers, the certified organic fields were sprayed with unauthorized chemicals, or organic grain was mixed with non-organic grain. As part of the plea, Constant also agreed to forfeit $128,190,128 in proceeds from the fraudulent scheme.

Constant’s grain was mostly used as animal feed, primarily for chickens and cattle. That livestock was then sold as organic meat or products from the livestock were sold as organic products. Because of Constant’s fraud, most of the livestock that was fed his grain was not organic, causing millions of consumers to purchase what they thought was organic meat for a premium price across the country.

It is unclear how much of the billions in exorbitantly expensive "organic" food sold every year by the likes of Whole Foods and other overpriced outlets, is just plain, ordinary, off-the-shelf "inorganic" produce with a "ceritifed" sticker slapped on it to part the gullible with their money.

China Warns Global Financial Bubble Could Burst

Almost three months after markets stumbled when after China’s top banking regulator said he’s "very worried" about risks emerging from bubbles in global financial markets (and China's property sector) sparking concerns about further tightening in the world’s second-biggest economy and slamming risk assets, China has done it again and on Saturday Liang Tao, vice chairman of China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, said at the International Finance Forum in Beijing that recent interest rate hikes by emerging economies could lead to a bursting of global financial asset bubbles which have been made even bigger by unprecedented pandemic easing measures by developed countries (i.e., Biden's trillions). And just in case it wasn't clear whose fault this is, Tao added that developed countries are sticking with ultra-low rates even as emerging economies raised their borrowing costs, "potentially resulting in the re-pricing of global assets."

In short, China is already pre-emptively pointing the finger at the US and western central banks as the parties responsible not only for bursting the biggest asset bubble in history, but for creating it in the first place.

Journalist Andy Ngo Reportedly Attacked By Antifa In Portland

The conservative journalist known for reporting on Antifa violence has reportedly been attacked by leftists again in Portland.

Journalist Andy Ngo has been reportedly assaulted by Antifa militants again in Portland, Oregon after he said he left the city and state due to fear of violent attacks.

The Post Millennial, where Ngo serves as an editor-at-large, reported that “Ngo, an expert on the violent Antifa movement, was reportedly chased and attacked by black-clad Antifa extremists overnight Friday while covering the latest far-left protest in Portland.”

“The individual believed to be Ngo was seen crouching behind the front desk as clerks attempted to secure the premises, according to Twitter users. Meanwhile, protesters chanted and pounded on the glass windows to taunt the man. “I can’t wait for you to come out, Andy!” can be heard shouted on-camera. “You thought the milkshakes were bad last time? We’re gonna beat the f— out of you, b*tch,” a female voice yelled, hurling allegations of racism at the man.”

According to local reports and certain posts on social media, Ngo appeared to have been identified, “tackled and punched before he sought refuge inside the nearby hotel where he was able to escape the scene.” Ngo reportedly transported to a hospital.

This would not be the first time that the conservative journalist has been violently attacked by leftist extremists. In June of 2019, Ngo was assaulted by Rose City Antifa in Portland. Ngo has been known to frequently cover Antifa activity on his Twitter account that has over 850,000 followers, including the violent threats from leftists online.

Ngo, the author of “Unmasked: Inside Antifa’s Radical Plan to Destroy Democracy,” had previously told the media that he was fleeing Oregon, citing the violence and violent threats levied against him by Antifa. National File has reached out to Ngo for comment, but has not yet received a response.

Fauci-Linked Wuhan Researchers Aided U.S.-Sanctioned, China Paramilitaries in Oppressing Uyghur Muslims.

The Wuhan Institute of Virology – now believed by many to be a potential source for COVID-19 – collaborated on scientific research with the premier Xinjiang paramilitary force sanctioned by the U.S. government for “serious human rights abuses” against Uyghurs.

The revelation follows increased scrutiny over Dr. Anthony Fauci’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) for funding research on bat coronaviruses at the controversial lab and sending scientists to advise on risky gain-of-function research. In addition to funneling taxpayer dollars to the Wuhan Institute of Virology, whose website previously listed the National Institutes of Health (NIH) as a research partner, Fauci’s agency can now be linked to funding an entity collaborating with the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps (XPCC).

Both Biden and Trump’s Treasury Departments have sanctioned Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps (XPCC) leaders for “serious human rights abuse against ethnic minorities in Xinjiang, which reportedly include mass arbitrary detention and severe physical abuse.” The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has also banned the entity’s cotton from entering the U.S., citing its links to prison and forced labor.

Mainstream media outlets including The Washington Post have identified the XPCC as an “instrument of repression” against Uyghurs, and Chinese state-run media outlets have described the group as an offshoot of the regime’s People’s Liberation Army (PLA) intended to “maintain socialist stability” and ” become a top militia force in China” in the region.

Chinese Communist Party leader Xi Jinping has met with the XPCC, even praising them as a “stabilizing force.”

Despite these explicit military ties and human rights violations, the Wuhan Institute of Virology has met and signed collaborative agreements with officials from the XPCC.

A now-deleted post from the Wuhan Institute of Virology’s website on August 3rd, 2013 reveals “scientific and technological cooperation” with the XPCC.

An event summary notes how the Wuhan Institute of Virology’s Director, Party Committee Secretary, and Associate Researcher traveled to Xinjiang to meet with XPCC officials:

“On July 30, 2013, at the invitation of Beitun Science and Technology Bureau, 10th Division of Xinjiang Construction Corps, Chen Xinwen, Director of Wuhan Institute of Virology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Yuan Zhiming, Secretary of Party Committee of Wuhan Institute of Virology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Director of Chinese Academy of Sciences Branch, Office of Science and Technology Cooperation Division, Wuhan Branch of Chinese Academy of Sciences Director Li Wei and Associate Researcher Yan Jianping of the Arbovirus Vector Control Discipline Group of the Institute of Virology went to Beitun City to discuss cooperation matters.”

The meeting reportedly focused on the “implementation of the new science and technology project-biological mosquito control.”

London Police Seize $7M After Spotting Man Struggling To Carry Bags Stuffed With Cash

London’s Metropolitan Police seized $7 million in cash—the largest amount ever taken by the capital’s police force—after police noticed a man struggling to carry bags stashed full of money.

Authorities said that on June 5, Ruslan Shamsutdinov was spotted exiting an address in Fulham, southwest London, and was “noticeably struggling” to carry heavy bags, which he put in a nearby parked car.

Police officers stopped him, and found a “considerable amount of cash” in the bags, according to a police statement.

A search of the apartment revealed a money-laundering scheme and cash worth more than $7 million, police said.

Some $47,000 and more than $11,346 was also found at Shamsutdinov’s home address, police said.

“As part of a long-running operation against gun crime and large scale Class A drugs supply across London, over five million pounds ($7 million) in criminal cash was seized from an address in Fulham. This is the largest ever single cash seizure by the Met and I believe one of the largest ever nationally,” Detective Superintendent Jason Prins, from the Specialist Crime Command said in a statement.

“Organized crime is motivated by money and is one of the biggest causes of violence on our streets. Tackling this violence is our main priority. This seizure, and the conviction of these men for laundering that money, will have a major impact on the ability of a number of crime groups to carry on with their activities,” he added.

The discovery came following a protracted operation focused on firearms offenses and large-scale drug supply across London, police said.

Three men—Ruslan Shamsutdinov, Sergejs Auzins and Serwan Ahmadi—were sentenced on Friday at Harrow Crown Court after pleading guilty last year to conspiracy to conceal/disguise/convert/transfer/remove criminal property.

Shamsutdinov, 36, received three years and nine months’ imprisonment, Auzins, 46 was sentenced to three years and four months’ imprisonment, and Ahmadi, 35 to one year and eight months’ imprisonment, suspended for two years imprisonment and ordered to do 150 hours of unpaid work.

Auzins was identified as a large-scale money launderer during the investigation, police said.

Wuhan Lab Researcher’s Wife Died of COVID-Like Illness in December 2019, Former Lead US Investigator Says

The wife of a Wuhan lab researcher working on coronaviruses died of what appeared to be COVID-19 in December 2019, the leader of a State Department investigation under the Trump administration told the Daily Caller News Foundation.

It would have been an early clue that the virus could be transmitted among humans, yet Chinese authorities said that the virus was not transmissible for at least a month after they knew it was, allowing it to spread, according to David Asher, who led an investigation on COVID-19’s origins and served in the State Department under Democrat and Republican presidents.

China reported in mid-January that the virus was transmissible among humans.

An individual who worked at the Wuhan Institute of Virology at the time provided the information on the lab researcher’s wife dying, according to Asher.

A Wall Street Journal story on Sunday reported that three Wuhan lab workers were hospitalized with COVID-like symptoms in November 2019, before the first confirmed case of COVID-19 on Dec. 8. The story’s main findings, that WIV workers had possible COVID-19 symptoms in fall 2019, before the first confirmed case, were already in a State Department statement on COVID-19’s origins released in the last days of the Trump administration.

The lab workers appear to have been more likely to have had COVID-19 than the flu, Asher said.

“How many normal people in their 30s-40s get so sick from influenza that they have to be hospitalized? Lab workers, I am told, are almost certainly getting flu shots.

“Moreover, what are the odds that several workers — who happen to be the researchers on enhancing the pathogenicity of COV RaTG13 and associated COVS all fall very sick together?” Asher noted, referring to coronaviruses.

China has blocked interviewing the previously ill researchers at the WIV, the January State Department statement said.

Virginia County’s Schools Warned To Revoke Teacher’s Suspension For Declining to Use Students’ Preferred Pronouns

In Virginia, Loudoun County Public Schools officials were warned Friday to revoke their suspension of a teacher for declining to use students’ preferred pronouns or face further legal action.

Tanner Cross, who taught at Leesburg Elementary School, was suspended after speaking publicly May 26 during a school board meeting in opposition to the system’s proposed policy that teachers must use the pronouns preferred by students rather than the pronouns consistent with their biological sex.

Cross was informed May 28 that he was being suspended “pending an investigation of allegation that [he] engaged in conduct that had a disruptive impact on the operations of Leesburg Elementary School.”

On Friday, Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) Senior Counsel Tyson Langhofer told school officials in a letter that they must either revoke the suspension and excise all records of it from Cross’s personnel file or he will take further legal action.

“The First Amendment prohibits retaliation against public employees for speaking on matters of public concern. ‘A teacher’s exercise of his right to speak on issues of public importance may not furnish the basis for his dismissal from public employment.’ Pickering v. Bd. of Educ. of Twp. High Sch. Dist. 205,391 U.S. 563, 574 (1968),” Langhofer explained in his letter to school officials.

“Mr. Cross’s expression during public comment time at an open school board meeting was undoubtedly expression in his private capacity on a matter of public concern. Id. (teachers’ public expression regarding school board actions is protected speech); Janus v. Am. Fed’n of State, Cnty. & Mun. Emps., 138 S. Ct. 2448, 2476 (2018) (listing examples of matters of public concern); see also, Meriwether v.Hartop, 992 F.3d 492, 506-07 (6th Cir. 2021) (teachers’ use of pronouns is protected speech on a matter of public concern),” Langhofer continued.

“Immediately suspending an employee and launching an investigation for engaging in First Amendment-protected expression, creates an atmosphere of fear and is intended to send a message to Mr. Cross and other teachers that they must toe the line or face the consequences …The First Amendment does not countenance such retaliation.”

Langhofer added that “we demand that you immediately (1) rescind the suspension, (2) reinstate Mr. Cross so that he can return to class on Tuesday, June 1, (3) remove the suspension letter from his file, and (4) refrain from any future retaliation against protected speech …

“Absent the complete revocation of this suspension, Mr. Cross will be forced to pursue other legal options to safeguard his rights.”

A spokesman for the school system could not be reached for comment for this news story.

Passengers, crew jump overboard as ferry with 200 aboard gets consumed by INFERNO off Indonesian island

A large ferry with some 200 people on board caught fire on Saturday while sailing to a remote Indonesian island. Passengers and the crew had to jump into the sea to escape the flames but, amazingly, no one died in the incident.

The ferry, named KM Karya Indah, was heading early on Saturday for Sanana, a port on the remote island of Limafatola in northeastern Indonesia when a fire broke out on board. The blaze started just 15 minutes after the vessel left the port in Ternate, the provincial capital of North Maluku province.

Luckily, no lives were lost in the incident, as all 181 passengers, including 22 children, and 14 crew members were rescued and evacuated to a nearby island, according to Wisnu Wardana, a spokesperson for the Indonesian sea transportation directorate general. He also said that fishing boats operating in the area had promptly joined the rescue efforts.

Some people received injuries, including abrasions and hypothermia, and many were in a state of shock, a local official said. The ferry, while visibly charred, stayed afloat after the blaze was extinguished. It sustained serious damage in the fire, and was towed to a nearby port by a tugboat.

The causes of the incident are still being investigated but some witnesses told authorities that the fire had originated in the engine room, AP reported. I

ndonesia is the world’s largest archipelago, incorporating more than 17,000 islands. The nation has repeatedly seen maritime incidents involving ferries, that have often resulted in casualties. In 2006 and 2009, Indonesian ferries sank in stormy weather, each disaster leaving hundreds of people dead.

One of the latest major ferry incidents in Indonesia occurred in 2018 when a vessel sank in Lake Toba on North Sumatra due to overloading, killing up to 167 people.

Biden taps former Danish reality star as State Dept. Chief of Protocol

President Biden has tapped a former Danish reality television star to serve as the State Department’s new chief of protocol.

Rufus Gifford became a sensation in Copenhagen while serving as ambassador to Denmark during Barack Obama’s second term after starring in two seasons in the show “Jeg er Ambassadøren fra Amerika” or “I Am the Ambassador from America.”

The series ran from 2014 to 2016 and showed Danes what typical life was like for America’s ambassador on their turf. The show gave viewers a window into Gifford’s personal life, including his relationship with veterinarian Stephen DeVincent, who he later married.

Gifford, 46, even earned a Danish television award for the show, according to Washingtonian magazine.

Gifford is also an improv comic and has some showbiz bonafides, too, having served as an associate producer for the 2003 Eddie Murphy comedy “Daddy Day Care” and worked on a few other flicks in the early 2000s.

After leaving Copenhagen, Gifford attempted a run for Congress in Massachusetts before heading back to the private sector as a consultant. He returned to public life to serve as a Deputy Campaign Manager for Joe Biden’s 2020 presidential campaign.

“Gifford has promoted and sponsored a variety of organizations including UTEC in Lowell, Massachusetts, The LGBT History Museum in New York, NY, Human Rights Campaign in Washington, D.C. and The Provincetown Center for Coastal Studies in Provincetown,” read an official White House announcement Friday lauding his civic work.

In his new role Gifford, who will retain the rank of ambassador, will assist Biden and other top US leaders with proper diplomatic protocols when visiting or receiving foreign dignitaries. He will also be in charge of scheduling itineraries for visiting officials form abroad.

Trudeau supports Chinese nationals over safety of Canadians

A year ago, when COVID-19 broke out, people started asking: hey, is this virus from Wuhan any relation to the Wuhan Institute of Virology? A Chinese virus lab studying coronaviruses?

Maybe the viral outbreak could be traced back to China, but if you drew this conclusion back then you were called a conspiracy theorist or even racist.

The Chinese Communist Party certainly did its best to cover it all up — until they couldn't.

Why wasn't there any investigation done into China's role in this pandemic?

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has never had Canadians best interests at the forefront of this mind and he continues to defend China, despite their obvious role in enabling this pandemic.

When he was questioned on his ties to China in the House of Commons, it's no surprise he didn't answer the question at all.

On Thursday's episode of The Ezra Levant Show, Spencer Fernando speaks to Ezra Levant on Trudeau's racism deflection in the House of Commons and the Wuhan lab leak theory.

On Trudeau's pitiful answer to being questioned on his admiration of Communist China, Spencer said this to Ezra:

You're dealing with countries like China that are lead by some ruthless people and they have ruthless ideas and they're willing to do pretty much anything to get their way. So this whole idea that I'll just repeat a few woke buzzwords and everything will be fine—I mean that's not how it works.

Former Teacher Of The Year Arrested On Rape And Sodomy Charges Involving Student

A former teacher of the year at a public high school in Alabama was arrested on multiple charges including rape and sodomy of a student, WHNT reported Friday.

44-year-old Leslie Gillespie was charged with two counts of a school employee engaging in a sex act with a student under the age of 19, and one count each of second-degree rape and sodomy, Lawrence County Sheriff Max Sanders said, according to WHNT.

Sanders said Gillespie is a teacher at R.A. Hubbard High School, where she teaches English, The Associated Press (AP) reported. In 2019, Gillespie was honored with a teacher of the year award at the school.

R.A. Hubbard High School is part of the Lawrence County School District and is located in North Courtland, roughly 30 miles south of the Tennessee border.

Lawrence County School Superintendent Jon Bret Smith indicated in a statement to WLOX that Gillespie was an employee at the school at the time of the arrest. Gillespie was reportedly taken into custody on Thursday.

“The Lawrence County school district has been made aware that an employee has been arrested. Our school district treats this type of situation with the highest level of care. District leaders are conducting an investigation into this matter and will support law enforcement as they do the same,” the statement said, in part, adding that the district is working “diligently and expediently to resolve the situation.”

Lawrence County School District did not respond to a request for comment in time for publication.

Numerous teachers and other school employees have been charged with sexual misconduct involving students. A New York public school board member was charged in May with multiple crimes, including sexual misconduct and allegedly raping a 16-year-old on a boat.

In April, a math teacher at a high school in Long Island was arrested on charges that she raped a 15-year-old male student.

Feds Detained San Jose Mass Shooter in 2016 For Possessing Manifestos and Books on Terrorism, But Never Alerted Local Authorities

The San Jose mass shooter was known to federal authorities going back to 2016, however they never alerted local law enforcement about his manifestos.

Santa Clara District Attorney Jeff Rosen said Friday that had local authorities been alerted, it may have helped prevent Cassidy from shooting dead nine of his coworkers at the railyard on Wednesday.

“The DA’s office was not notified,” Rosen said. “I would like to have known this in 2016.”

In 2016, Customs and Border Protection stopped Samuel Cassidy after his trip back from the Philippines.

According to a Department of Homeland Security memo obtained by The Wall Street Journal, Samuel Cassidy was in possession of “books about terrorism and fear and manifestos … as well as a black memo book filled with lots of notes about how he hates the VTA.”

57-year-old Samuel Cassidy shot and killed 9 railyard workers on Wednesday before killing himself at a Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority control center in San Jose, California.
