Alexei Navalny Found Guilty By Russian Court, Sentenced To 9 Years In "Strict Regimen" Prison

 

Jailed Kremlin critic and anti-Putin activist Alexei Navalny has been found guilty on fresh charges of fraud and contempt of court by a Moscow judge. His plight has recently come back into Western headlines in the wake of Russia's Ukraine invasion.

 

"Judge Margarita Kotova on Tuesday found Navalny guilty in a makeshift court inside a maximum-security prison in Pokrov 100 kilometers (60 miles) east of Moscow where he is already serving a sentence for violating parole in poisoning recovery," The Moscow Times reports.

 

"Navalny committed fraud — the theft of property by an organized group," Judge Kotova ruled.

 

"By insulting the judge, Navalny committed contempt of court" the judge said additionally after finding Navalny guilty of embezzlement.

 

Navalny will now spend an additional 9 years in prison, less than the maximum 13 years he could have faced for the charges.

 

Navalny's twitter account was quick to respond after the sentencing…

Report: Disney will 'take action' against Texas for order calling 'sex-change' procedures for children 'child abuse'

 

As part of the Walt Disney Company's continuing effort to kowtow to its left-wing employees, the company will reportedly "take action" against Texas for the state's order to investigate "sex-change" procedures for transgender children as a form of child abuse.

 

The Daily Wire's Megan Basham reports that Disney CEO Bob Chapek led a company-wide meeting on Monday in which he apologized again for the company's initial neutrality toward Florida's Parental Rights in Education Bill, which would ban teaching children in kindergarten through third grade about sexual orientation and gender identity.

 

Basham reports that Chapek thanked LGBT!+ employees for their feedback, admitted he made mistakes regarding the company's response to the Florida bill, and also said, "The pain this community experienced was not just about this one piece of legislation but about not being there anytime this community has been hurt.”

 

The meeting reportedly featured a panel with speakers from LGBTQ+ activist groups and an address from Nadine Smith, the executive director of Equality Florida. A Disney staffer who spoke to the Daily Wire reportedly said the panel discussion was "about wanting Disney to indoctrinate kids."

 

After the discussion, the company's chief human resources officer, Paul Richardson, announced Disney will "take action" against Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott's order to have the state's Department of Family and Protective Services investigate reports of gender-dysphoric children undergoing "sex change" procedures as child abuse.

 

“Because of our presence in Texas, we want you to know that we’ve signed on to the Human Rights Campaign’s letter opposing the Texas bill that criminalizes parents who provide for their transgender children gender affirming care,” Richardson said, according to the Daily Wire.

 

The "gender-affirming care" Richardson referred to that is considered child abuse under Abbott's order would be "sex-change procedures" including castration, surgery to remove male genitals, surgeries to remove the female reproductive system, plastic surgeries to construct artificial genitals, so-called "top surgery" to remove female breasts, or any procedure that removes a "healthy or non-diseased body part or tissue" from children when not medically necessary.

 

Providing cross-sex hormones to children including puberty blockers, unnatural doses of testosterone for females, and unnatural doses of estrogen for males also potentially constitutes child abuse under Abbott's order.

 

The Human Rights Campaign, an LGBTQ+ activist organization, purchased an ad in the Dallas Morning News earlier this month announcing that more than 60 major companies had signed on to its open letter opposing alleged "hateful attacks" against transgender people from Abbott and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton.

 

The ad declares "discrimination is bad for business." It states, "the recent attempt to criminalize a parent for helping their transgender child access medically necessary, age-appropriate healthcare in the state of Texas goes against the values of our companies. It’s not just wrong, it has an impact on our employees, our customers, their families and our work.”

 

Companies that signed on to the letter include Apple, Capital One, Dropbox, Google, IBM, IKEA, Meta, Microsoft, and more.

Russia Slams Biden's Cyberattack Charge: 'We Don't Engage In State-Level Banditry Like The US'

 

The Kremlin on Tuesday condemned the latest accusations out of Washington that it's planning major cyber attacks against the West as retaliation for US and EU sanctions, saying it doesn't engage in "banditry" on the state level like "many Western countries" and the US.

 

Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov told reporters in response to the Monday statements of President Biden, "unlike many Western countries, including the United States, Russia does not engage in state-level banditry."

 

President Biden had said he has seen "evolving intelligence" that points to possible Russian government preparations for cyberattacks against the United States. The president was mainly addressing tech and internet companies in the US, urging the private sector to "immediately" harden "cyber defenses."

 

He told them now is "a critical moment to accelerate our work to improve domestic cybersecurity and bolster our national resilience." He warned US businesses that they must harden their defenses against such threats.

 

"Today, my Administration is reiterating those warnings based on evolving intelligence that the Russian Government is exploring options for potential cyberattacks," Biden said in the Monday address.

 

The steps included strengthening US infrastructure with "extensive cybersecurity measures for the Federal Government and those critical infrastructure sectors where we have authority to do so."

 

He announced a new plan "public-private partnerships and initiatives to enhance cybersecurity across all our critical infrastructure."

Washington State to Implement Race-Based School Discipline

 

White students would receive harsher punishments in the name of "equity"

 

While many states have adopted legislation to push back against critical race theory (CRT) and its application in education, Washington state is going in the opposite direction. A new education policy seeks to establish “educational equity” and dismantle “institutional racism.” The aim of the policy is to ensure equal outcome across racial and cultural lines, meaning that race would determine the severity of school discipline. This policy, as well as a similar measure that promotes “cultural competency” for educators was passed by a Democrat-controlled legislature and governor in what is a deep blue state.

 

The Washington State School Directors Association (WSSDA) provided training to the state’s school boards for enforcing ESSB 5044. The bill is described as “AN ACT Relating to equity, cultural competency, and dismantling institutional racism in the public school system.” Mandatory training emphasizes the difference between “equity” and “equality” while stressing the importance of achieving the former. The guidance document mentions “specific trainings that explore what equity means, how it differs from equality, why it creates better student outcomes, and what the role of the board is in moving towards equity”.

 

The Twitter account “Libs of TikTok” shared a video of a Clover Park School District (WA) school board meeting where the policy was being discussed. Implementation of the legislation was voted on at the meeting as well.

WTF there is an acceptable level of cancer causing drugs!

 

Pfizer Recalling Some Blood Pressure Drug Products With ‘Above Acceptable’ Levels of Cancer-Causing Impurity

 

Pfizer said on Monday that it is voluntarily recalling some of its blood pressure drug products and two authorized cheaper generic versions of the drug due to elevated levels of a potentially cancer-causing impurity.

 

The pharmaceutical giant said it is recalling six lots of Accuretic (quinapril HCl/hydrochlorothiazide) tablets, one lot of quinapril and hydrochlorothiazide tablets, and four lots of quinapril HCl/ hydrochlorothiazide tablets which are used to treat the symptoms of high blood pressure.

 

Pfizer said the tablets, which were distributed nationwide to wholesalers and distributors in the United States and Puerto Rico from November 2019 to March 2022, have been found to contain the presence of nitrosamine.

 

According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Nitrosamines are common in water and foods, including cured and grilled meats, dairy products, and vegetables.

 

While everyone is exposed to some level of nitrosamines, over-exposure to the impurities for extended periods of time can lead to an increased risk of cancer.

 

Drugs that contain levels of nitrosamines that are above the acceptable daily intake limits are recommended by the FDA to be recalled.

 

Pfizer said it has so far not received any reports of adverse events related to the drug recall and believes the “benefit/risk profile of the products remains positive based on currently available data.”

 

“Although long-term ingestion of N-nitroso-quinapril may be associated with a potential increased cancer risk in humans, there is no immediate risk to patients taking this medication. Patients currently taking the products should consult with their doctor about alternative treatment options,” the company said.

 

The company also noted that the products “have a safety profile that has been established over 20 years of marketing authorization and through a robust clinical program.”

 

However, it asked that wholesalers and distributors who have an existing inventory of the products in the recall stop using and distributing the products immediately.

 

Pfizer’s announcement regarding the recall comes after Pfizer Canada recalled all lots of the blood pressure drug Accuretic due to high levels of a nitrosamine impurity (N-nitroso-quinapril).

 

The recall involved eight lots of Accuretic medication in 10/12.5-mg, 20/12.5-mg and 20/25-mg strengths, Health Canada said.

 

However, the regulator noted that there was no immediate risk in continuing to “temporarily” take Pfizer’s recalled drug since the potential risk of cancer is associated with long-term exposure (every day for 70 years).

 

Prior to that, Pfizer Canada said it was recalling 15 lots of another blood pressure drug, Inderal, due to the same nitrosamine impurity concerns.

 

That recall covers multiple batches of 60-mg, 80-mg, 120-mg and 160-mg extended-release capsules, the Canadian health department said.

Wallets, IDs but No Survivors Found in China Eastern Crash

 

WUZHOU—Mud-stained wallets. Bank cards. Official identity cards. Poignant reminders of 132 lives presumed lost were lined up by rescue workers scouring a remote Chinese mountainside Tuesday for the wreckage of a China Eastern flight that one day earlier inexplicably fell from the sky and burst into a huge fireball.

 

No survivors have been found among the 123 passengers and nine crew members. Video clips posted by China’s state media show small pieces of the Boeing 737-800 plane scattered over a wide forested area, some in green fields, others in burnt-out patches with raw earth exposed after fires burned in the trees. Each piece of debris has a number next to it, the larger ones marked off by police tape.

 

The steep, rough terrain, and the huge size of the debris field were complicating the search for the black boxes, which hold the flight data and cockpit voice recorders, state media CCTV and Xinhua News Agency said.

 

Fragments of wreckage were scattered across both sides of the mountain into which the plane crashed, state media reported.

 

As family members gathered at the destination and departure airports, what caused the plane to drop out of the sky shortly before it would have begun its descent to the southern China metropolis of Guangzhou remained a mystery.

 

The crash left a deep pit in the mountainside about the size of a football field, Xinhua said, citing rescuers. Chen Weihao, who saw the falling plane while working on a farm, told the news agency it hit a gap in the mountain where nobody lived.

 

“The plane looked to be in one piece when it nosedived. Within seconds, it crashed,” Chen said.

China Eastern flight 5735 crashed outside the city of Wuzhou in the Guangxi region while flying from Kunming, the capital of the southwestern province of Yunnan, to Guangzhou, an industrial center not far from Hong Kong on China’s southeastern coast. It ignited a fire big enough to be seen on NASA satellite images before firefighters could extinguished it.

 

No foreigners were on board the lost flight, the Foreign Ministry said, citing a preliminary review.

 

Dinglong Culture, a Guangzhou company in both mining and TV and movie production, said in a statement to the Shenzhen stock exchange that its CFO, Fang Fang, was a passenger.

 

Zhongxinghua, an accounting firm used by Dinglong, said that two of its employees were also on the flight.

 

The crash site is surrounded on three sides by mountains and accessible only by foot and motorcycle on a steep dirt road in the semitropical Guangxi region, famed for some of China’s most spectacular scenery.

 

Police restricted access, checking each vehicle entering Molang, a village near the crash site. Five people with swollen eyes walked out of the village, got into a car and left. Onlookers said they were relatives of the passengers.

Justin Trudeau Strikes Deal with Far-Left to Remain in Power Until 2025

 

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Tuesday his Liberal Party has reached an agreement with the leftist opposition New Democratic Party that would keep his party in power until 2025.

 

“What this means is during this uncertain time the government can function with predictability and stability, present and implement budgets and get things done for Canadians,” Trudeau said.

 

Trudeau’s Liberal Party won reelection in September but failed to win a majority of seats in Parliament and must rely on the opposition to pass legislation. The NDP party will support Trudeau’s Liberals in exchange for deals on pharmaceutical and dental care plans, but it will not have a lawmaker in Trudeau’s Cabinet and Trudeau said the NDP won’t have a veto on any budget or any other legislation.

 

“We’ve agreed to work together,” Trudeau said. “It’s about focusing on what we agree on instead of what we disagree on.”

 

NDP leader Jagmeet Singh said it isn’t a coalition government and if the Liberals fall short on conditions the deal doesn’t continue. But he said he’s confident it will work.

 

Anti-vaccine protesters and truckers who laid siege to parts of Ottawa, the capital, called for Trudeau’s government to be ousted earlier this year. Now he’s assured of staying in power for some time.

 

“This is nothing more than a Justin Trudeau power grab,” interim Conservative Party leader Candice Bergen said.

 

Trudeau said he plans to run again when the next election is held, which must be by 2025.

 

“As I’ve said a number of times, I am planning on continuing to serve Canadians through and beyond the next election,” Trudeau said.

 

But there are widespread doubts that he will do so, given that he would have been in power for 10 years, has seen a drop in his popularity and a rise in animosity toward him in much of western Canada.

 

Trudeau is still remembered for evoking the prospect of “sunny ways” when he took office in 2015 at age 43, the second-youngest Canadian prime minister ever. There have been setbacks since then, but he has been reelected twice.

New Reports of U.S. Boots on the Ground in Ukraine Doing ‘Operational Prep of the Battlefield’

 

There are new reports about U.S. special forces operators who are doing “operational prep of the battlefield” in Ukraine.

 

Seth Harp, an investigative reporter and contributing editor to Rolling Stone, revealed the JSOC operations on Sunday.

 

“US special operators are currently on the ground in Ukraine doing ‘operational prep of the battlefield,’ according to a well informed source,” Harp reported citing a ‘well informed’ source. “The military unit is JSOC’s Advance Force Operations, including members of Delta Force and SEAL Team 6.”

 

The developments are concerning to Americans who want to avoid entanglement in a foreign war, but Harp cautioned readers not to necessarily presume this is an “escalation.”

When university donors have a pro-Israel agenda

When university donors have a pro-Israel agenda

 

Philanthropy with strings attached: donors are getting bolder at the urging of pro-Israel organizations.

What should a university do when a mega-donor for a Jewish Studies program openly demands loyalty to Israel? Jewish studies and Israel studies throughout the U.S. owe almost the totality of their existence to philanthropic largess from Jewish donors, who then use ‘soft power’ to shape pro-Israel programs…

Recently, when a donor who gave $5 million to endow an Israel chair at the University of Washington complained about the chair’s criticism of Israel, UW stripped the professor of her chair and reportedly transferred the money to an Israel advocacy organization…

Lila Corwin Berman, professor of Jewish history at Temple University, discusses the issue…

 

In the fall of 2019, a prospective donor to my university handed me a list of six demands. The demands were printed on letterhead marked “StandWithUs” — an advocacy organization established in 2001 to support Israel. With close ties to Israel’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, it is one of several right-wing pro-Israel organizations that regard university campuses as the front line in a fight against anti-Zionism and the boycott, divestment, and sanctions (BDS) movement.

 

I was not surprised that StandWithUs would instruct university donors to try to extract promises like the public condemnation of BDS (demand No. 5) or the allowance of the donor’s “personal oversight” over faculty appointments and curricular decisions (demand No. 6). I was surprised, though, that they would show me, a faculty member, their cards — effectively ending the game. “Can I keep this?” I asked, knowing it was the only gift my university could possibly take from them.

Recently, StandWithUs has emerged as a playmaker in reports about the University of Washington’s decision to return an endowment to a displeased donor. Six years ago, Becky Benaroya gave a $5-million gift to endow a chair and program in Israel studies.

 

But after the holder of the chair, Professor Liora Halperin, signed a statement critical of Israel during the May 2021 conflict with Gaza [see this], Benaroya complained to the university and, eventually, accepted the university’s offer to refund the endowment. A StandWithUs representative accompanied the 99-year-old Benaroya to several high-level meetings with university officials, and the endowment money is reportedly being transferred to StandWithUs.

 

In the wake of this unusual chain of events and the almost unprecedented decision of a university to respond to donor pressure by returning a completed gift, universities across the country must ask anew: What power should donors have?

 

The question is not unique to Jewish studies or Israel studies. A flood of gifts from the billionaires Charles and David Koch (David died in 2019) to universities over the last two decades has raised questions about the outsize influence of donors on programs and faculty appointments — and even given rise to a movement called “UnKoch My Campus.”

 

And Yale University’s Brady-Johnson Program in Grand Strategy made headlines this past fall after its donors demanded more advisory power, leading its faculty director to resign.

 

But because Jewish studies and Israel studies owe almost the totality of their existence to philanthropic largess from Jewish donors, the matter of donor expectations is especially consequential for these fields.

 

A 2003 study conducted through the Institute for Jewish & Community Research found that a full 61 percent of Jewish donors’ “mega-gifts,” valued at $10 million or more, were directed to higher education. The small fraction of those donations earmarked for Jewish studies and Israel studies programs has shaped those fields.

 

In 2013, the Association for Jewish Studies reported that North American colleges and universities were home to over 200 Jewish-studies programs or departments and 230 endowed professorships.

Horowitz: More VAERS-reported vaccine deaths in our military than COVID deaths

 

Both political parties are salivating to draw our military into the Russia-Ukraine war, but neither of them seems to care about what our own leaders have done to these soldiers.

 

It is now abundantly clear from numerous data points that the shots have caused unimaginable injury among the general population. Military doctors have come forward to show the enormity of this damage in the military, yet the military has chosen to cover it up and tamper with their own health surveillance data in order to conceal the magnitude of the injury. Meanwhile, new data presented in a Florida federal court on behalf of a Navy SEAL demonstrates that, at a minimum, more people died from the shot than from COVID.

 

On March 10, attorney Mat Staver of Liberty Counsel presented data in court showing 127 VAERS-reported COVID vaccine-related deaths in the military in 2021. That is more than the 93 reported COVID deaths in the military since the beginning of the pandemic. And keep in mind, COVID deaths tend to be overestimated, while VAERS-reported deaths, especially in the military, are underreported. Even CDC researchers recently conceded that “the actual rates of myocarditis per million doses of vaccine are likely higher than estimated” by VAERS reports.

 

The military VAERS data was initially discovered by Dr. Jessica Rose, a biologist and mathematician who has likely published more information on VAERS than anyone in the world. VAERS has a box to check for those in the military to select upon submission, and she counted 127 reported deaths stemming from service members in 2021.

 

This safety signal from the universal reporting system is the most significant evidence to date that the DMED (Defense Medical Epidemiology Data) specifically monitoring the military, as originally presented by the whistleblowers, was correct when it showed a massive surge in injuries ranging from neurological and cardio to cancers and immune disorders. According to the military, though, the 2016-2020 baseline used by the whistleblowers was plagued by a glitch just at the time these military doctors pulled the information (not before and not after!) and the numbers for those years were always as high as those in 2021. The problem is that the VAERS data, by definition, indicate that 2021 had to have experienced a surge in injuries. It’s just a question of how much. Here is the VAERS data for vaccine-related hospitalizations in 2021 compared to previous years.

The US-NATO-Israel Sponsored Al Qaeda Insurgency in Syria. Who Was Behind the 2011 “Protest Movement”?

 

It Started in Daraa on March 17, 2011

 

President Bashar Al Assad is casually described as a dictator who is killing his own people. The millions of deaths resulting from US-NATO led wars are not an object of concern.

 

The anti-war movement died in the wake of the Iraq war (April 2003). Responsibility to Protect (R2P) and counterterrorism prevail.

 

The war on Syria started ten years ago in Daraa on the 17th of March 2011.

 

I was in Syria in early 2011. I left the country in early March barely tow weeks before the outbreak in Daraa.

 

The following article first published in May 2011 examines the inception of the jihadist terrorist insurgency.

 

It recounts the events of March 17-18, 2011 in Daraa, a small border town with Jordan.

 

Media reports have finally acknowledged that the so-called “protest movement” in Syria was instigated by Washington. This was known and documented from the very inception of the Syrian crisis in March 2011.

 

It was not a protest movement, it was an armed insurgency integrated by US-Israeli and allied supported “jihadist” death squads?

 

From Day One, the Islamist “freedom fighters” were supported, trained and equipped by NATO and Turkey’s High Command. According to Israeli intelligence sources (Debka, August 14, 2011):

 

NATO headquarters in Brussels and the Turkish high command are meanwhile drawing up plans for their first military step in Syria, which is to arm the rebels with weapons for combating the tanks and helicopters spearheading the Assad regime’s crackdown on dissent. … NATO strategists are thinking more in terms of pouring large quantities of anti-tank and anti-air rockets, mortars and heavy machine guns into the protest centers for beating back the government armored forces. (DEBKAfile, NATO to give rebels anti-tank weapons, August 14, 2011)

 

This initiative, which was also supported by Saudi Arabia the UAE and Qatar, involved a process of organized recruitment of thousands of jihadist “freedom fighters”, reminiscent of the enlistment of Mujahideen to wage the CIA’s jihad (holy war) in the heyday of the Soviet-Afghan war:

 

Also discussed in Brussels and Ankara, our sources report, is a campaign to enlist thousands of Muslim volunteers in Middle East countries and the Muslim world to fight alongside the Syrian rebels. The Turkish army would house these volunteers, train them and secure their passage into Syria. (Ibid, emphasis added)

 

These mercenaries were subsequently integrated into US and allied sponsored terrorist organizations including Al Nusrah and ISIS.

US Signals It’s Discouraging Zelensky from Making Concessions to Russia That Could End the Fighting==

 

The State Department says the war is 'bigger' than Russia and Ukraine and is about universal 'principles'

 

On Monday, the State Department signaled that the US is discouraging Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky from making concessions to Russia in negotiations that are aimed at ending the fighting in Ukraine.

 

State Department spokesman Ned Price said Zelensky has “made it very clear that he is open to a diplomatic solution that does not compromise the core principles at the heart of the Kremlin’s war against Ukraine.”

 

When asked to elaborate on his point, Price said that the war is “bigger” than Russia and Ukraine. “The key point is that there are principles that are at stake here that have universal applicability everywhere,” he said.

 

Price said Russian President Vladimir Putin was trying to violate “core principles,” including “the principle that each and every country has a sovereign right to determine its own foreign policy, has a sovereign right to determine for itself with whom it will choose to associate in terms of its alliances, its partnerships, and what orientation it wishes to direct its gaze.”

 

Putin has made clear that one of his main motivations for the invasion is Ukraine’s alignment with NATO. Leading up to the invasion, he asked the US for a guarantee that Ukraine won’t ever join the military alliance, but the US refused to make the promise even though President Biden publicly admitted Kyiv wouldn’t be granted a membership anytime soon.

 

Even Zelensky has said that he was told Ukraine wouldn’t be a NATO member. “I requested them personally to say directly that we are going to accept you into NATO in a year or two or five, just say it directly and clearly, or just say no,” he said in an interview with CNN on Sunday. “And the response was very clear, you’re not going to be a NATO member, but publicly, the doors will remain open.”

 

Instead of pushing Zelensky to declare neutrality, the US continues to arm Ukraine. When asked if the US is counseling Zelensky on the negotiations with Russia, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said Monday that the US is in touch with Ukrainian officials every day. But she said the role the US can play the most “effectively” in the process is to send more weapons into the warzone.

Here Are the Names and Faces of Australia and New Zealand’s Nudge Units

 

“When we first established in the heart of the UK government, there were vociferous concerns around the potential for widespread mind control, manipulation and skulduggery. These concerns continued as we expanded our work overseas, and as other [Behavioural Insights] Units have been set up around the world.” – Dr. Rory Gallagher, Nudge Unit

 

The above quote is taken from an article written by Gallagher who is the Managing Director for the Behavioural Insights Team’s (“BIT’s”) Australian and Asia-Pacific (“APAC”) offices. BIT is colloquially known as the Nudge Unit.

 

When Gallagher moved in 2012 from the UK’s Nudge Unit to Australia to help the New South Wales (“NSW”) Government set up their own team he was met with scepticism by the press.

 

He claimed one article started with the opening line: “A REALLY bad idea is being imported to Australia.” Gallagher bravely declared he “tried not to take this personally.” But maybe he should have done as it seems whoever wrote that article was correct.

 

In April 2021, dozens of psychologists accused the UK government, acting on the advice of behavioural experts, of using “covert psychological strategies” to manipulate the public’s behaviour.

 

They were so concerned that the British public had been the subject of a mass experiment in the use of strategies that operate “below their level of awareness” that they made a formal complaint to their professional body to rule on whether government advisers had been guilty of a breach of ethics.

 

SAGE is the body that has been advising the UK government in their Covid response and one regular attendee said:

 

“The British people have been subjected to an unevaluated psychological experiment without being told that is what’s happening.

 

“All of this is about trying to steer behaviour in the direction an elite has decided, rather than deciding if it is the right thing or the ethical thing to do.”

In January 2022, UK Members of Parliament launched an investigation after psychologists criticised the totalitarian tactics of ‘deploying fear, shame and scapegoating’ over the last two years.

 

A group of 40 psychologists had written to the UK Parliament’s Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee, warning that civil servants and Government scientists used frightening imagery to change public behaviour during the pandemic, in a way they say was unaccountable and unethical.

 

The letter’s signatories blamed the involvement of the Nudge Unit for the tactics.

 

Additionally, the co-founder and leading figure within the Nudge Unit, Simon Ruda, has described the use of fear as ‘egregious’ and warned of long-term consequences. Deploying ‘nudge’ tactics during the pandemic may have amounted to ‘state sanctioned propaganda’, said Ruda. Although he said that the propagation of fear had more to do with government communicators and the incentives of news broadcasters than with behavioural scientists themselves.

8 Joe Biden Scandals Inside Hunter Biden’s MacBook That Corporate Media Just Admitted Is Legit

 

Last week, The New York Times quietly acknowledged that the emails recovered from the MacBook Hunter Biden abandoned at a Delaware computer store were authentic. The admission came nearly a year-and-a-half late, after the corrupt media — legacy and social — buried the scandal the New York Post broke just weeks before the November election.

 

Merely admitting the laptop is legitimate is not enough. Rather, by concurring in the authenticity of the laptop and the emails, the supposed standard-bearers of journalism have also implicitly acknowledged the validity of the scandals spawn by the porn-filled MacBook. And notwithstanding the salacious source of the documentary evidence of the scandals, the scandals are not about Hunter Biden: They are about now-President Biden.

 

Here are the eight Joe Biden scandals deserving further coverage.

  1. Pay-to-Play in Ukraine

 

The most obvious scandal bared by the emails and text messages contained on Hunter’s laptop concerns the influence profiteering Joe Biden apparently participated in during his eight years as Barack Obama’s vice president, with Ukraine featuring heavily in the pay-to-play scheme.

 

The New York Times, in its likely “get ahead of the story,” coverage from last week, touched on the Ukrainian angle by noting Hunter’s connection to Burisma and then quoting emails recovered from the laptop indicating the younger Biden leveraged his dad’s position — then as vice president. But the Times’ surface coverage of the Burisma scandal doesn’t nearly suffice.

 

Surface it was: The Times made no mention of Hunter’s appointment to Burisma Holdings Board of Directors at a reported salary of $50,000 per month during his dad’s time as vice president. Hunter Biden had no experience in energy. So, a deep-dive on the entire Biden-Burisma connection is a first step.

  1. China Gets in the Game

 

Ukraine is but a patch on the influence-peddling undertaken by Hunter on behalf of “the big guy,” as the younger Biden referred to his dad. China also played a large role in the family enterprise, as demonstrated by, again, passing coverage in November 2021. Then, the Times reported, in brief, that Hunter Biden’s joint global equity firm, the Bohai Harvest Equity Investment Fund, had helped coordinate the purchase by a Chinese mining company of the world’s largest cobalt source in the Congo.

 

That deal gave China control over a huge chunk of the world’s known cobalt supplies — an ingredient necessary to make electric car batteries. And the role of Hunter Biden’s company, Bohai, in the transaction again connects directly to Joe Biden, as Hunter reportedly launched that new joint enterprise with Chinese business partners less than two weeks after he traveled to China on Air Force Two with his then-vice president father.

 

In exploring this scandal, the press needs to push beyond the emails recovered from Hunter’s abandoned laptop, and do what Tucker Carlson did when the pay-to-play scandal first surfaced: talk to Hunter’s former business partner Tony Bobulinski. Bobulinski provides further proof that this scandal reaches the top of the Biden family.

  1. Moscow, Kazakhstan, and More

 

While Ukraine and China likely hold the most significant revelations, once those threads are pulled, investigators should move on to Moscow, which according to a Senate report, holds another possible scandal. That report documents that Hunter also received a combined $3.5 million from the wife of the former Moscow mayor, a Kazakhstan investor, and several other individuals. After all, there is no reason to think that a person willing to let his son sell access to the vice president of the United States would close the money train to just a few countries.
