Russia receives US response to security proposals

Envoy delivers US, NATO responses to Russian offer

Moscow has received the US response to the proposals concerning collective security in Europe, the Russian Foreign Ministry confirmed on Wednesday.

Ambassador John Sullivan delivered the responses from both the US and NATO to the Russian draft bilateral treaty made public in mid-December. Moscow proposed eight points in the draft, and expected a detailed response to each one.

The US was asked to stop any further NATO expansion to the east, halt military programs in non-member countries that used to be part of the Soviet Union – and pledge Ukraine and Georgia would “never” join the alliance – remove its nuclear weapons from Europe, and not deploy any offensive weapons capable of targeting Russia along its borders. Moscow demanded legally binding guarantees on all of those matters.

The State Department has reportedly asked Russia not to make its response public.Speaking at the Russian parliament earlier on Wednesday, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said that the ministry would communicate the “essence of their reaction” to the Russian public.

Lavrov explained that once the American response was received, the Foreign Ministry will work with other departments to give President Vladimir Putin a proposal of further steps concerning Russia’s security.

Wisconsin Assembly Votes to Advance Rep. Ramthun’s Resolution to Reclaim Wisconsin’s Electors For President and Vice President That Were Certified Under Fraudulent Purposes

The Wisconsin Assembly voted unanimously in a voice vote in a privileged resolution to move forward Rep. Ramthun’s resolution to reclaim Wisconsin’s 10 electors for US President and Vice President who were certified under fraudulent purposes.

The voice vote was unanimous and passed the assembly earlier this evening.

The legislation will now move forward to the Wisconsin Rules Committee and to the Wisconsin Senate.

The legislation was introduced by Rep. Timothy Ramthun.

How it happened: Rep. Ramthun bravely called for a point of order on Tuesday during an open session of the Wisconsin Assembly. He did this by asking for a privileged resolution. His legislation was referred to the Rules Committee per parliamentary rules. Then debate continued on an existing Bill 743 in the Assembly.

The resolution was privileged. This way they were able to do a vote within the session that was currently in place. And the result was all “Yes”, a unanimous vote to move the legislation to the Rules Committee. It’s in the hands of Speaker Vos, a Republican. So Speaker Vos and the rest of the representatives have ten days to answer back on whether he’s going to push it to the floor for a vote. It is not clear what the Wisconsin Senate will do with it yet.

Liberal Supreme Court Justice Breyer Plans To Retire Before Midterms: NBC

In a midday headline that rocked Washington, NBC News reports that Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer, one of the minority of liberal justices on the Court, is planning to retire before the midterms to give President Biden a chance to nominate and install a replacement.

Minutes ago, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki tweeted a statement that neither confirmed, nor denied, the NBC News report, but simply said that each justice must make their own decision about when to retire.

US Citizens Told Depart Ukraine Now By Any Means Possible In New Embassy Alert

Ukraine in the past days has made it clear that it thinks both the US and UK's reduction of embassy staff and their families is an overreaction. On Monday and Tuesday, Ukrainian Defense Minister Oleksii Reznikov told parliament "there are no grounds to believe” Russia will invade imminently. "Don’t worry, sleep well," Reznikov said. "No need to have your bags packed." Ukrainian leaders have expressed anger over the move driven by 'hysteria' while outright rejecting as "premature" a State Department travel advisory for Ukraine on Sunday that cited "the increased threats of Russian military action."

Apparently undeterred by the contradiction and what it's eastern European ally is clearly advising against, the Biden administration has pulled the trigger on Wednesday, issuing an urgent advisory telling all American citizens they should depart Ukraine amid signs of an "imminent" Russian offensive.

"The U.S. Embassy in Ukraine is urging U.S. citizens in the country to consider departing now via commercial or other privately available transportation options, citing increased threat of Russian military action," according to Bloomberg.

The embassy's new security alert reads precisely:

"The U.S. Embassy urges U.S. citizens in Ukraine to consider departing now using commercial or other privately available transportation options."

Latest Actions by Durham Indicate a Broken Investigation by a Broken DOJ

The latest from the Durham investigation which should have been completed ages ago is not good news. According to reports, Durham’s team only this month found out about key evidence that should have been analyzed months ago.

As most Americans know, corrupt Obama officials during the 2016 Election used a false document (the Steele Dossier) as a basis for spying on the Trump campaign and Administration. This dossier was a lie created by the Hillary gang and the DOJ and FBI used it anyways in a coup attempt to have President Trump removed from office.

When Jeff Sessions was removed from office, Bill Barr came in and in May 2019 created an investigation into the beginnings of the Russia collusion sham. Per Lawfare blog:

In May 2019, Attorney General William Barr tapped Connecticut’s U.S. Attorney John Durham to look into issues related to the origins of the FBI’s Trump-Russia investigation. Durham is alongtime federal prosecutor inConnecticut known for leadingorganized crime and public corruption cases. In 2008, Attorney General Michael Mukaseytasked Durham with investigating the CIA’s destruction of interrogation videotapes. A year later, Attorney General Eric Holderexpanded Durham’s mandate to examine CIA torture allegations.

Now, Durham is conducting a comprehensive global probe of the U.S. government’s investigation of the Trump Campaign’s connections with Russia. The investigation covers pre- and post-election matters, and reportedly has come to include the unmasking of former national security adviser Michael Flynn, and the basis for the intelligence community’s assessment that Russia tried to help Donald Trump win the election in 2016. These are all matters on which President Trump has publicly commented. Before and after Durham began his investigation, Trump has often claimed, in fiery rhetoric, that the Trump campaign investigation, and the unmasking of Flynn, and the intelligence community’s assessment, were illegitimate. He has also charged that some of the people apparently under investigation by Durham engaged in misconduct on matters under investigation. Attorney General Barr has also publicly commented that some of the people under investigation engaged in serious wrongdoing.

This investigation has led to almost nothing to date. (At times there were doubts that the investigation was actually in place.)

Yesterday (Tuesday, January 25) some documents were uncovered in the Durham case as noted by Techno Fog:

Today, Special Counsel John Durham provided a “discovery update” to the court in the Michael Sussmann case. In this filing, available here, he disclosed that his team has obtained a tremendous amount of information ranging from a variety of sources – including Perkins Coie, the Hillary Clinton Campaign, and former DNC/Clinton lawyer Mark Elias.

While Sussmann has been charged with giving false statements to then-FBI General Counsel James Baker regarding the Alfa Bank/Trump Organization hoax (background here), Durham notes that the “Government also maintains an active, ongoing criminal investigation of” Sussmann’s conduct.

Leaked Email Shows Trump-Backed Tennessee Congressional Hopeful Morgan Ortagus Pledging To ‘Faithfully Serve The Biden Administration.’

Insiders have pointed to the involvement of Ivanka Trump and GOP establishment operative Ward Baker.

Morgan Ortagus – a high-level Trump administration official mulling a run for Congress in Tennessee – pledged to “faithfully serve the Biden administration” in a goodbye email sent to State Department colleagues in an e-mail obtained exclusively by The National Pulse.

Ortagus, a spokesman for the State Department during the Trump administration, received a preemptive “complete and total endorsement” from her former boss President Trump, in a move that has stunned the MAGA base. Filmmaker and grassroots activist Robby Starbuck has been considered the frontrunner and favorite of Trump’s base thus far in Tennessee’s 5th Congressional district.

“I couldn’t be happier because she’s an absolute warrior for America First and MAGA!” claimed the former President in a statement for his Save America PAC. The National Pulse understands that local party operatives, including architect of the recent Georgia Senate loss strategy, Ward Baker, is behind Trump’s move to endorse Ortagus, who welcomed the endorsement on Twitter, stating: “Thank you, President Trump! It was an honor working for the #AmericaFirst agenda in your administration. Like you, I’ll always fight for American greatness.”

A private email from January 19th, 2021, however, reveals Ortagus to have been plotting a career move “no matter what happened with election” and praising key Obama Biden-era official Ned Price, her replacement, as “fantastic.”

Titled “How to say goodbye?” and flagged as highly important, the email, sent one day prior to Biden’s inauguration, was sent to all career officials in the State Department’s Bureau of Global Public Affairs (GPA) and a group and a select group of officials in the Office of Public Affairs (PAO).

Ousted Barclays CEO Jes Staley reportedly backed Epstein at JPMorgan

Recently ousted Barclays CEO Jes Staley went to bat for convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein when he ran the investment banking division at JPMorgan, according to a report.

JPMorgan was examining whether to boot Epstein as a client because of his 13-month prison sentence tied to soliciting sex from a minor, but Staley — who ran the giant’s investment bank — argued that Epstein had paid his debt to society and should remain a client, according to the report Wednesday in the Financial Times.

Staley’s efforts came after Epstein was convicted in 2008, according to the FT. JPMorgan eventually severed its relationship with Epstein in 2013 — the same year Staley departed the JPM for a new job at a hedge fund before rising to run Barclays in 2015.

Staley’s support for Epstein at JPMorgan underscores his longstanding ties to the disgraced financier — and how he advocated on Epstein’s behalf well before it resulted in Staley’s exit from Barclays late last year.

In November, reports surfaced that Staley and Epstein had exchanged around 1,200 emails during Staley’s 30-year tenure at JPMorgan. Some emails revealed questionable and unexplained phrases like “snow white,” according to the FT.

Staley stepped down from Barclays in November after he reviewed initial findings from a probe by UK regulators into whether he’d mischaracterized his relationship with Epstein as purely professional, according to the FT. Staley is contesting the findings.

JPMorgan declined to comment to the FT. A spokesman for Staley also declined to comment.

Staley has stated his relationship with Epstein fizzled following the banker’s departure from JPMorgan.

But even after he left the bank helmed by Jamie Dimon, he visited Epstein at his private island in the Caribbean, “Little Saint James,” according to reports.

Staley worked at BlueMountain Capital from 2013 to 2015 before nabbing the top job at Barclays in 2015.

Meanwhile, Epstein began working with Deutsche Bank in 2013, according to the FT, after being cut off by JPMorgan following Staley’s departure from JPMorgan.

Epstein died in 2019 in prison as he awaited trial on charges he sex-trafficked minors.

British Medical Journal Demands Access to COVID Vaccine Data, Slams ‘Morally Indefensible’ Pharma Firms.

The BMJ called the refusal to release data an "unacceptable delay".

The British Medical Journal (BMJ) is demanding pharmaceutical companies release raw COVID-19 vaccine data. BMJ Editors Peter Doshi, Fiona Godlee, and Kamran Abbasi published an editorial stating that “data should be fully and immediately available for public scrutiny” adding that much of the data from major vaccine manufacturers cannot be accessed because the vaccinations are not approved by the Food and Drug Administration.

The FDA is only producing data for Pfizer’s vaccine as both Moderna and Johnson & Johnson’s vaccines are not approved by the FDA, despite the popular misconception that they are. Rather, the latter pair have “Emergency Authorization Use,” status, rather than FDA approval.

Initially, the FDA said it was willing to release 500 pages of data per month. A judge in Texas rejected this offer, ordering the entity release 55,000 pages of the data the FDA used to license Pfizer’s vaccine.

At present, Pfizer “has indicated that it will not begin entertaining requests for trail data until May 2025,” some two years after the primary study completion. Moderna may release data at some point this year, but not before trials are complete. The estimated completion data for Moderna’s study trial review and completion is October 27 2022.

The BMJ called the refusal to release data an “unacceptable delay” and “morally indefensible.” The editorial continues, “We are left with publications but no access to the underlying data on reasonable request. This is worrying for trial participants, researchers, clinicians, journal editors, policy makers, and the public.”

“…Big Pharma is the least trusted industry. At least three of the many companies making COVID-19 vaccines have past criminal and civil settlements costing them billions of dollars. One pleaded guilty to fraud… now, the COVID pandemic has minted many new pharma billionaires.”

Florida Doctor: Families Sneak Ivermectin to Loved Ones in Hospitals With COVID-19, See Improvement

A Florida doctor says families of loved ones hospitalized with COVID-19 are resorting to desperate measures when approved treatments have failed.

And when it’s not too late, some have seen tremendous success by sneaking medications prohibited by hospitals to patients, says Eduardo Balbona, an independent internist in Jacksonville.

He’s helped dozens of seriously ill patients recover using ivermectin and other drugs and supplements not officially approved in the treatment of COVID-19, he says.

Hospitals receive payments from the federal government for treating patients with COVID-19. But those payments are tied to their use of approved treatments only, as outlined in the CARES Act. When there’s nothing left to try under those protocols, families naturally research alternatives, Balbona says, often learning about treatments touted by independent physicians around the country.

Hoping to try anything that might work, families around the country have filed lawsuits asking judges to intervene.

In some cases, judges have ordered hospitals to allow the use of other treatments, such as ivermectin. Some of those seriously ill patients have recovered. In other cases, judges have sided with hospitals and declined the families’ requests to try.

Meanwhile, independent physicians like Balbona watch helplessly, feeling that when families ask, they should be allowed to try medications they believe can turn critically ill patients around. But independent doctors often have limited hospital privileges and may be banned from seeing their own patients in some hospitals.

Beijing Nancy: Pelosi Shifted Her China Stance as Her Family Scored Beijing Deals

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi softened her previous criticisms of China’s communist regime as her husband and son scored big business deals in China, Breitbart News senior contributor Peter Schweizer’s new book reveals.

The bombshell revelations about Pelosi in Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win also come as the Democrat stalwart is under fire for stock trading returns made by her and her husband that regularly outperform the market. Now, it appears as though her family’s business opportunities in China have influenced her policy views on America’s chief adversary, something sure to fuel the fire to rein in corruption in Congress.

Pelosi’s family, Schweizer reveals, has had millions of dollars on the line when it comes to China, and the Speaker seems to have altered her positions on China’s communist regime from a policy perspective as these investments grew and took shape.

Pelosi began her career as tough on China and still occasionally rips the Chinese Communist Party for human rights abuses.

“The longtime member of Congress and Speaker of the House was, early in her career, a particularly harsh critic of China’s human rights practices,” Schweizer writes. “She continues to be vocal about some issues, but her positions have softened as her family has sought and received lucrative commercial opportunities in mainland China.”

In the early 1990s, Schweizer recounts how she even pulled off a protest in Tiananmen Square that infuriated Chinese officials:

In 1991, as a junior member of Congress, Pelosi found herself in Tiananmen Square. She was part of a congressional delegation visiting Beijing barely two years after the horrific events had un- folded. Pelosi had been in meetings with Chinese officials, but with a couple of colleagues, she covertly carried a banner into the middle of the square and unfurled it in front of a small crowd and the media. “To those who died for Democracy in China,” it read. The Chinese police were furious. They pushed through the crowd to seize the banner. “I started running,” Pelosi recalled. “And my colleagues, some of them, got a little roughed up. The press got treated worse because they had cameras, and they were detained.” The Foreign Ministry denounced the event as a “premeditated farce.

This move was not an isolated incident; Pelosi actually was tough on China for years.

Settler convoy parades through Palestinian town, stoning cars and storefronts

Rights group say Israelis drive through northern West Bank town of Huwara to celebrate release of Jewish suspect in recent attacks on Palestinians in the area; 3 injured in assault

Defense Minister Benny Gantz pledges to act against recent acts of settler violence “with a heavy hand.”

“Anyone who throws stones, torches vehicles, or uses weapons… is a terrorist and that is how we will treat them,” he says.

“I recently convened a number of discussions on the subject, and we are in the midst of a process aimed at strengthening the forces on the ground, building up the force together with police and the Shin Bet, and concentrating operational and legal resources [in the effort],” Gantz adds.

Police say they have opened a probe into the settler convoy that paraded through the northern West Bank Palestinian of Huwara, with Israeli participants hurling stones at Palestinians, their cars, and their storefronts, as they celebrated the release of a settler violence suspect from prison.

At least three were injured in the attack.

Police have yet to apprehend a suspect in the filmed assault and have yet to arrest a suspect in the similarly filmed assault on Palestinians and Israeli peace activists in Burin last Friday.

OUTRAGED Father Suing Florida School District For Secretly Pushing ‘Gender Identity’ On Daughter Before She Attempted Suicide

A father is suing a school district in Florida because the school was having secret meetings with his daughter about gender identity and he was only notified after she tried to commit suicide by hanging herself in the bathroom at the school:

A Clay County father said his rights as a parent were violated and now he’s taking the school district to court.

The suit, filed by Child & Parental Rights Campaign, claims a school counselor held secret weekly meetings with an elementary student about a gender identity crisis for months without alerting the parents.

“It is a serious mental health decision that school personnel are not qualified, not competent, and not authorized to make,” Vernadette Broyles, the organization’s president, said. “Parents must be involved in these important decisions.”

The father, who we are not naming to protect the identity of the child, said he was alerted on Jan. 5 that his daughter attempted to commit suicide on campus.

“It was a nightmare for us,” he told Action News Jax’s Robert Grant. He said the guidance counselor told him his daughter didn’t want to talk about it because of her parent’s Catholic faith.

“I took offense because that had nothing to do with it. I mean I don’t even know if she understands our faith. That demonstrated she was ignorant about it. Our faith is one of unconditional love for our children.”

The suit was filed Monday in federal court.

“To protect the rights of parents to be able to raise their children, to direct the care of their child, in accordance with their faith and without the interference of government officials,” Broyles said.

The suit alleges that school leaders encouraged others to call the 12-year-old a boy and gave her a new name without the parents knowing.

A Jacksonville counselor told Action News Jax that confidentiality is protected until the child presents a danger of harming themself or others, then they must notify the parent.

US threatens Belarus with military move

Washington will be forced to react if Ukraine is invaded from Belarusian soil, says the US State Department

Belarus will face a “swift and decisive response” from Washington if it allows Moscow to use its territory to invade Ukraine, the US State Department threatened on Tuesday, amid growing fears that a Russian military incursion is imminent.

Speaking to the press, State Department spokesman Ned Price called Russia’s “surging of troops into Belarus” a “cause for deep concern.” Moscow and Minsk are currently preparing for the Union Resolve 2022 joint exercises, due to begin on February 10.

As a result, troops from around Russia are currently redeploying westward, with many now near the Ukrainian border. Washington believes the exercises could be a pretense for an invasion.

“We’ve also made clear to Belarus that if it allows its territory to be used for an attack on Ukraine, it would face a swift and decisive response from the United States and our allies and partners,” Price said. “If an invasion were to proceed from Belarus, if Russian troops were to permanently station on their territory, NATO could well have to reassess our own force posture in the countries that border Belarus.”

The State Department spokesman also called the decision by Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko to allow a large number of troops onto his territory as an “affront to Belarus’s sovereignty.”

In response, a senior Belarusian official said that he found the suggestion of a US response “humorous.”

“There has never been any threat from the territory of Belarus and Russia,” Oleg Gaidukevich, deputy chairman of the Belarusian Parliament’s Committee on International Affairs, said on Wednesday. “Lukashenko has said more than once that we can come with tractors and combine harvesters and sow wheat to Ukraine’s fields so they can have a good harvest. No more than that.”

“And all these sanctions packages are imposed just for the fact that we exist. For the fact that Belarus and Russia are on the world map,” he said.

In recent months, Western news publications and leaders have accused Russia of placing 100,000 troops on the Ukrainian border, with some claiming that the Kremlin is planning an attack in the near future. Moscow has repeatedly denied all suggestions of a possible invasion.

Italy's former royals demand the return of £250million crown jewels that were confiscated when the country abolished its monarchy because it backed fascists

Italy's former royal family have demanded the return of their crown jewels, believed to be worth £250million, that were taken away from them when the country abolished its monarchy.

The royals, who were exiled from Italy after the Second World War until 2002, want their collection of tiaras, necklaces, brooches and earrings returned to them from a vault in the Bank of Italy in Rome.

The royal House of Savoy's collection, comprising of 6,000 diamonds and 2,000 pearls, was taken away when Italians voted to abolish the monarchy after the war, with the then King Umberto II fleeing to Portugal.

The Italians were punishing the royal family for first collaborating with fascist dictator Benito Mussolini and then fleeing Rome in 1944 to avoid an invading German army.

Ever since, the jewels have been kept by the Bank of Italy and reports suggest they are worth up to £250 million (€300 million).

But now, the former royal family are calling for the jewels, which were worn by Italian queens and princesses, to be returned to them 78 years later.

'Italy should do what is right and fitting and restore the jewels to my family,' Prince Emanuele Filiberto of Savoy, 49, told the Telegraph.

He added: 'The monetary value of the jewels doesn't interest us. What is more important is the historical and sentimental value that they have for the family.

'Italy is about the only republic in the world where the private property of the ex-royal family is still in the hands of the State. It's shameful. Even Russia and Yugoslavia restored private possessions to their royals.

'The jewellery has been hidden away in a chest for more than 70 years. Unlike the Crown Jewels in the Tower of London, these have never ever been on display to the public.

'It is about time that they were returned to the heirs of the royal family.'

A mediation meeting was held between lawyers for the Savoys and representatives of the Bank of England on Tuesday - but the meeting was inconclusive, the newspaper reported.

Florida senator, 37, who was extorted over nudes is introducing new law that makes creation of altered sexual images, known as deepfakes, a felony

A Florida senator whose nude photos were stolen and used in an attempted extortion is now working to improve the state's revenge porn rules by making it a felony to create and disseminate digitally altered, sexually explicit images.

Florida Senate Democratic Leader Lauren Book introduced new legislation Tuesday that would also criminalize theft of real images in cases where the person sought to distribute or benefit from them.

Book, 37, was victimized by such a scheme last year after a teen claiming to be in possession of her intimate photos demanded $5,000 to have them deleted. The 19-year-old blackmailer sent Book pictures of her exposed breasts and threatened to destroy her career by sending them out.

Police later charged Jeremy Kamperveen with extortion and cyber stalking. It's not clear how the images were obtained, although Book had images of her and her husband on her phone, and said she shared a post-operation photo of her lumpectomy scar with a friend.

'I hate that this happened to me,' Book said. 'I hate it, I hate it, I hate it, I hate it, I hate it. But I´ll take it, because I know that I can do something about it.'

The bill sponsored by Book got its first committee hearing Tuesday.

It would strengthen Florida's revenge porn law by making it a felony to buy, sell or trade stolen sexually explicit images from someone's phone or other digital devices.

It would also make disseminating altered or created sexually explicit images, known as deepfakes, a felony.

The Senate Criminal Justice Committee unanimously approved the bill.

Hallandale Beach City Commissioner Sabrina Javellana thanked Book on Tuesday, saying she was the victim of a deepfake by someone who altered photos from her Instagram page as well as others on the internet.

'They looked very, very real as if they were nude pictures I had taken of myself,' Javellana said in a phone interview, adding that it triggered trauma from her past. 'I was raped my freshman year of college and it was like it was happening all over again.'

She reported the online images to law enforcement, but investigators said they couldn't do anything because Florida law didn't address deepfake images. She said she's grateful Book is taking on the issue.

How Dutch Israel lobby attacks free speech

There have been dozens of attacks on Palestinian rights defenders by Israel lobby groups in the Netherlands.

Smear campaigns, threats of violence, attempts at defunding human rights groups, efforts to restrict academic freedom, threats of lawsuits and cyberattacks are among the intimidation tactics identified in a report released this month by the European Legal Support Center (ELSC).

The Israel lobby group CIDI has been at the forefront of attempts to stifle advocacy for Palestinian rights and efforts to hold Israel accountable.

But the 76 incidents documented in the report also involve other Dutch pro-Israel groups, media, political parties, faith-based organizations, Israel’s Ministry of Strategic Affairs and the Israel-based group NGO Monitor.

Israel lobby group CIDI in the forefront

Almost 60 organizations and groups and 23 individuals found themselves in the Israel lobby’s crosshairs between 2015 and 2020, the ELSC found.

CIDI or members of its staff were involved in 60 percent of the reported incidents. This outsize role appears to be a reason for pride.

Former CIDI staff member Hidde van Koningsveld boasted about his role in the incidents in a tweet branding them as a fight against “Jew-hatred and terrorism.”

Van Koningsveld – a convert to Judaism – appears to have recently changed his first name to Akiva. This coincides with his move to Israel last year.

He has taken Israeli citizenship and moved to Eli, one of a cluster of a colonies in the occupied West Bank that have dispossessed Palestinians of vast tracts of land.

This year the Dutch government appointed a national coordinator to fight anti-Semitism.

The person chosen to fill this role, Eddo Verdoner, has long been a CIDI board member . This appears to follow the model of other European anti-Semitism coordinators, whose activities suggest that their priority is shielding Israel from criticism rather than fighting bigotry.

Verdoner’s office has already accused Human Rights Watch of anti-semitism for its report published earlier this year finding that Israel commits the crime of apartheid, ELSC notes.

He has also claimed that supporting freedom in the whole of historic Palestine is the same as calling for the “dismantling of Israel” – that may be an implicit admission that equality is indeed impossible under Israel’s current regime.

Curiously, CIDI’s webpage about Verdoner contains no information.

Pic/Vid: Massive ‘mushroom cloud’ explosion at LA chemical plant

A explosion at a chemical plant in Louisiana sent black smoke billowing into the air Wednesday afternoon in what witnesses are describing as a “mushroom cloud.” At least six people are reportedly injured as a result of the explosion.

According to WGNO, Louisiana State Police said the explosion took place at a Westlake Chemical around its ethylene dichloride storage tanks.

KPLC reported that plant officials said an empty ethylene dichloride tank exploded, but the cause is still under investigation. Hazmat crews have been called to the scene.

Read Free Louisiana posted on Twitter an image a “mushroom cloud” created by the explosion.

“Huge explosion felt and heard in Sulphur, large mushroom cloud visible toward Westlake,” Read Free Louisiana posted.

Fox 8 New Orleans shared video of the aftermath on Twitter.

Westlake Chemical spokesman Joe Andrepont said all injuries were only minor, with one person treated on site and others transported to nearby hospitals.

“#BREAKING: Smoke billowing from Westlake chemical plant in Lake Charles after reported explosion,” the outlet tweeted.

Area schools were put on a temporary shelter-in-place order, which was lifted just before noon local time.

“***11:58 a.m. update – The precautionary shelter in place has been lifted. As of 11 a.m. all Sulphur and Westlake schools are under a precautionary shelter in place. All students, faculty, and staff are safe. We will provide an update when it has been lifted,” the Calcasieu Parish School Board posted on Facebook.

Senior US official predicts Russia will attack Ukraine by mid-February

Wendy Sherman notes China won’t like invasion during Beijing Winter Olympics; US embassy in Kyiv advises citizens to consider leaving ‘now’; diplomatic talks continue

US Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman said Wednesday the United States believes Russian President Vladimir Putin remains poised to use force against Ukraine some time in the coming three weeks.

“I have no idea whether he’s made the ultimate decision, but we certainly see every indication that he is going to use military force sometime perhaps (between) now and the middle of February,” Sherman told a forum.

Striking a lighter tone, she noted that the Beijing Winter Olympics are scheduled to start on February 4 and said, “I think that probably President Xi Jinping would not be ecstatic if Putin chose that moment to invade Ukraine.”

The US embassy in Ukraine on Wednesday urged its citizens in the ex-Soviet country to “consider departing now” as fears grow over a possible Russian invasion.

“The US embassy urges US citizens in Ukraine to consider departing now using commercial or other privately available transportation options,” the embassy said in a statement, warning that the security situation “can deteriorate with little notice.”

Kyiv and the West have accused Russia of massing tens of thousands of troops on the Ukrainian border in preparation for a possible invasion.

'Elders Of Zion' book being sold by top booksellers

Top online booksellers such as Walmart, Book Depository, Thrift Books, Hudson Books, and Barnes & Noble are each selling dozens of versions of The Protocols of the Elders Of Zion.

The antisemitic text The Protocols Of The Meetings Of The Learned Elders Of Zion is being sold on popular book sellers' websites, Jewish social media users were outraged to learn on Tuesday.

Top online booksellers such as Walmart, Book Depository, Thrift Books, Hudson Books, and Barnes & Noble are each selling dozens of versions of The Protocols of the Elders Of Zion. Of note, these retailers are also selling a version published by Book Tree in 1999 that is causing outrage on social media.

The overview on Barnes & Noble's version of Book Tree's Protocols argues that if "The Protocols are genuine (which can never be proven conclusively), it might cause some of us to keep a wary eye on world affairs. "

The overview argues multiple times that the document may in fact genuine, as it contends that "we have not seen a clear and convincing version of it produced by those making the claim."

"Others maintain that it was and is absolutely genuine – proven by the fact that all copies were destroyed in Russia in the early 1900s by the Kerensky regime. In the following years, anyone caught with a copy could be, and sometimes were, shot on sight," says the product description. "The Protocols were taken seriously by the Russians and by people in America like the famed industrialist, Henry Ford. This seems to give it validity, but people (and nations) have been known to be fooled."

"Why is Barnes & Noble selling a forgery responsible for so much Jewish suffering, as if it’s a legitimate book?" Tweeted Melissa Braunstein. "If they want to sell it for courses on the evils of antisemitism, it should be summarized differently and include an introduction that's clear this document is a forgery, and responsible for untold Jewish suffering."

The seller argues that if "The Protocols are a forgery, they still form an interesting book which deserves to be studied in the same way The War of the Worlds radio broadcast duped many thousands…We neither support nor deny its message, we simply make it available for those who wish a copy."

However, the book cover also features blurbs mocking attempts to stop the sale of the book. "Stop selling books" is attributed to a German publisher. "…Is calling on [on-line booksellers] not to sell the book…calling the disclaimers an insufficient half-measure," is attributed to "an American Jewish organization."

Blackwell's, a UK bookshop, is also selling several dozen versions of the book, including the Book Tree version.

"This is what Blackwell's is pushing with the Protocols of there [sic] Elders of Zion," tweeted writer Tanya Gold, who encouraged others to read a synopsis of a version published in 2014 by On Demand Publishing.

Biden’s FCC Pick Reached Favorable Legal Settlement With TV Networks Just One Day After Her Nomination

Just one day after President Joe Biden nominated Gigi Sohn to the federal agency that oversees television networks, her nonprofit secured a favorable legal settlement with those same networks that reduced her financial liability by more than $30 million.

According to a confidential settlement revealed by Bloomberg Law, Sohn's now-defunct nonprofit, Locast, agreed to pay a number of top broadcasters $700,000 after it illegally streamed their programming. That amount is a mere fraction of the $32 million Locast was initially ordered to pay. Sohn, who served as one of the nonprofit's three directors, signed the agreement one day after Biden announced her nomination to the Federal Communications Commission, which regulates the same networks she settled with.

Sohn's settlement with the likes of ABC, CBS, and Fox has impeded her confirmation process. During a December hearing, Republican senators Roger Wicker (Miss.) and Roy Blunt (Mo.) expressed concern over the lawsuit, with Blunt asking Sohn if the ordeal would impact her "dealings with the very same local broadcasters that sued" Locast. Last week, Wicker called for a second hearing on Sohn's confirmation due in part to the "timing of this settlement in relation to her nomination."

"The possibility of the nominee's future financial liability to a number of companies regulated by the FCC, and the timing of this settlement in relation to her nomination, demands a full discussion by the committee to ensure that there is a clear understanding of the ability for this nominee to act without any cloud of ethical doubt," Wicker said. "The committee needs to hold a new hearing on this matter to provide the nominee an opportunity to fully address these concerns."

While Bloomberg Law wrote that Sohn's settlement "appears to undercut" Wicker's "stated reason for opposing her nomination," others aren't so sure. American Commitment president Phil Kerpen questioned both the timing and terms of the settlement, arguing that it raises new ethics questions.

"How does this eliminate criticism? The terms of the deal are incredibly favorable to her," Kerpen told the Washington Free Beacon. "How could anyone say that she can now objectively vote on anything involving any of the big broadcast networks that just basically let her company off the hook?"

Bloomberg Law initially published Sohn's settlement details under the headline, "FCC Nominee's Settlement Undercuts Rationale for Blocking Her." Hours after publication, the outlet changed that headline to read, "Biden FCC Nominee Settles Case That Spurred GOP Senator's Fight." Bloomberg Law did not immediately return a request for comment on the change.

Sohn's tenure on the board of the illegal TV streaming service is not the only reason Republican senators are hesitant to confirm her. Sohn, a longtime progressive activist, has also called for the shuttering of right-wing networks throughout her career, views that Sen. Dan Sullivan (R., Alaska) in December said "completely disqualify" her from public office.

Since covid first appeared, doctors, scientists, microbiologists have been getting murdered – what’s really going on here?

There has been a strange uptick in murders among scientists, doctors and microbiologists ever since the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) was first announced by the government.

Dr. Andreas Noack out of Germany, for instance, was mysteriously offed not long after he publicly discussed the presence of graphene hydroxide in Donald Trump’s Operation Warp Speed “vaccines.”

In the fall of 2020, Noack had police break into his home with guns pointed at him simply for doing a video report that challenged the globalist narrative surrounding “covid.” Roughly one year later, Noack was found dead inside his home after highlighting the presence of poison inside the jabs.

Not long after his death, Noack’s partner put out a video explaining that she believes he was murdered for talking about the “nano-scale razor blades” that are contained within Fauci Flu shots.

The prospect that Noack was murdered became even more valid after the globalist-backed Politico fake news outlet put out a gatekeeping story not long after that claiming that Noack had simply died from a “heart attack.”

“Yet we all know that the CIA created a ‘heart attack gun’ that would leave its victims dead of heart attacks, completely untraceable,” reported Stefan Stanford from All News Pipeline.

British Special Forces Spotted Near Syria’s Al-Hasakah Prison Where ISIS Terrorist Have Been Holding Up

British special forces have been spotted near Geweran prison in the northeastern Syrian city of al-Hasakah where ISIS terrorists have been holding up for nearly a week now.

The terrorists launched a large-scale attack on the prison, which is located in the southern part of al-Hasakah, late on January 20. The attack, which was meant to free ISIS captives, ended up with the terrorists capturing the entire prison and nearby areas from the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF).

On January 25, the al-Ghad TV aired footage from the vicinity of Geweran prison showing a convoy of five “Escapade” Bushmaster PMVs [Protected Mobility Vehicles] of the British Army. These specially modified, highly armored vehicles are usually used by the British Army’s Special Air Service (SAS) units.

The presence of British special forces near Geweran is not surprising given that the UK is a key member of the US-led coalition who has been supporting the SDF’s efforts to re-secure the prison and nearby areas from the get go.

As of January 26, the coalition’s support has allowed the SDF to recapture much of Geweran prison and several nearby building from ISIS terrorists. The SDF was also able to free 32 hostages from the terrorists’ hands.

Where are the Protests at the Vaccination Clinics to Rescue the Children?

So other than rousing speeches that fired up their supporter base and their opposition to "COVID-19 Vaccine Mandates," and not necessarily the vaccines themselves, what exactly did this "protest" in Washington D.C. accomplish?

Washington D.C. is one of a handful of places in the nation right now where children as young as 12 years old can receive a COVID-19 injection without the approval of their parents.

Witt said 90% of speakers at the march are vaccinated.
