Biden’s New Iran Deal Offers Iran $1 Trillion by 2030 – This Is Treasonous

Stumbling through the Middle East this week, calling the Holocaust an “honor” and removing the Israeli flag from his limo to go visit Palestinian terrorists in East Jerusalem – the first American President to ever visit Arab-occupied East Jerusalem – may not be the worst crime Joe Biden committed this week.

Biden yesterday reaffirmed his commitment to returning to the 2015 JCPOA nuclear deal with Iran– a deal which saw the Obama government send $100 billion to Iran, including a C-130 Hercules carrying $400 million in cash on January 16, 2016, as CNN reported. The Islamist regime then used that money to wage war in Yemen, Lebanon, Iraq, Gaza and around the world, massively destablizing the world.

Now, Biden’s offer to the Ayatollahs threatens to dwarf even that gargantuan act of treason.

“Under the deal, Iran gets a financial package worth up to $275 billion in the first year and as much as $800 billion over the next five”, writes Richard Goldberg, Senior Advisor at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. “With a trillion dollars available by 2030 for Iran’s missile program, sponsorship of terrorism and Revolutionary Guard, the agreement enables Tehran to set a dozen more fires around the Middle East that force a US response to defend American citizens, embassies and allies. And in the end, without demanding a full accounting of Iran’s nuclear activities or destroying a single centrifuge, the deal’s expiration dates all but guarantee Iran will still cross the nuclear threshold at a future time of its choosing.”

“To be sure, Russia and China would like nothing more than to see an America bogged down by never-ending Iranian nuclear extortion and escalation. That is why they are the strongest proponents of a nuclear deal with Iran. They know that the more money Iran has available for terrorism, missiles and nuclear expansion in the Middle East, the more American time and resources will consistently be diverted from Asia and Europe to mitigate the latest Iran-sponsored crisis. That, unfortunately, is a strategic reality supporters of an Iran nuclear deal fail to grasp”, Goldberg writes.

Data Supporting the Reported Results of the 2020 Election Does NOT Reconcile with Data in Voting Machine Files – Something Is Very Wrong

After the 2020 Election steal, we knew things were very wrong. Now as experts dig into the 2020 Election results, the final results don’t seem to reconcile with anything.

We learned in 2020 that American elections are a mess. Now here we are a year and a half later and we are uncovering more evidence that the final results in 2020 never should have been certified.

We reported within days of the election and since then that the final numbers made no sense. This was highlighted in our work surrounding the Drop and Roll.

The Edison data used in the above video has since been dug into much deeper. Draza Smith and Jeff O’Donnell are two data experts who began looking at this data. They made numerous observations after doing so as noted in the article below. Some key points are:

Edison data with state totals are provided to mainstream media outlets like the New York Times showing reportedly up-to-date results of the election for each state

There is a separate stream of election data based on county reporting that goes to the state

The Edison state data supplied to the media and the county data supplied to the state don’t mirror each other and don’t agree until very late in the process – these results should mirror each other at all times accounting for timing issues

During the 2020 Election, all Edison data results for all states went to zero, and then when the numbers were reported again the Edison state data showed that President Trump had lost votes in many states. It appears that this ‘Edison zero’ event was done to make it look like President Trump was doing worse in several states

The Edison state data and county data cannot be reconciled

Edison state data was always less than the county data (except with DC)

Ultimately both the Edison state data and the county data come to an agreement at the end of the election

The Edison state data appears almost completely fictional to paint a story to the public

The county data may be fictional as well to some extent but not as off as Edison state data.

Edison data reporting is most likely related to an algorithm or pre-determined value

Battleground states actually had more refined reporting down to the precinct level rather than county level as in other states

The ratio of Trump to Biden votes in the Edison data appears preset for each state before the election

But when Texas and then Florida went to Trump voting had to stop while they rearranged the remainder of the swing state votes

The Edison zero moment occurred after Florida was called for Trump

All states show this pattern

There may be some type of controller that manages the votes – a device similar to ones used in multiple industries

Jeff O’Donnell “I have probably done a fairly deep dive on 12 different states and I have found unacceptable, unacceptable things in all 12. Even in my worst nightmares previous to this election, I never dreamed that anything like this on such a massive scale could happen. We need answers to so many questions.”

Draza Smith shared: “Everything we’ve put together with the idea of how things happened here, played out exactly the same way in the California recall election. Why did all those people…go in and vote and be told, oh you can’t vote, you’ve already cast a vote…So the things that we’re seeing happening are falling into line that it’s the same, it’s the same, it’s the same. We need to start demanding the answers as to why the same, the same, the same.”

We need an audit of our time stamps. We need to get a better idea of how a ballot goes from the voter, to the tabulator, to the state and Edison and eventually to the New York Times.

Saudis Double Russia Crude Imports As It Prepares For BRICS Inclusion

Saudi Arabia has a thirst for heavily discounted Russian diesel and other fuel products banned by many countries in the West.

The world's largest oil exporter more than doubled the amount of Russian fuel oil in the second quarter to supply power generation stations to meet surging cooling demand this summer and allow the kingdom's crude exports to increase.

Western sanctions forced Russia to discount fuel oils on spot markets, which has increased demand in the East, not just from the Saudis but also from China and India.

Energy trade data provided by Reuters shows Saudis imported 647,000 tons (48,000 barrels per day) of fuel oils from Russia in the second quarter – up from 320,000 tons in the same quarter last year.

The surge in the Russia-Saudi energy trade (also detailed in "Middle East Ramps Up Imports Of Shunned Russian Fuels") comes as BRICS International Forum President Purnima Anand told Russian newspaper Izvestia that Saudis are planning to join. That would boost multilateral cooperation between BRICS, including Saudis, meaning they wouldn't cave to the US demands to restrict Russian energy imports.

Colorado Dems Offer Millions In Taxpayer Funded Benefits To Illegals In The State

Colorado’s Democrats, led by Governor Jared Polis, are offering up a treasure trove of the state’s resources to illegal immigrants and billing taxpayers millions to make it happen.

Polis and his Democratic team of lawmakers in the state have opened public benefits like dental insurance, family services, business permits, and professional licenses to the state’s nearly 300,000 illegal aliens.

The move is part of a legislative package signed by Polis last year.

Democrats in Colorado are ensuring that illegal aliens will now be eligible for taxpayer-funded subsidies for property taxes, rental costs, and utility bills.

The move is expected to cost the state’s taxpayers about $12 million annually.

Joe Biden’s administration has supported the move. Health and Human Services (HHS) and Treasury Department approved an application by Colorado officials to provide subsidized health insurance to illegal aliens in the state. State officials expect to enroll about 10,000 illegal aliens under the subsidized health insurance program in the first year. They hope to increase that number each following year.

Polis hasn’t stopped there in his bid to entice illegals to come to his state. He signed legislation that will make pregnant illegal aliens and their children eligible for Medicaid in 2025.

HB22-1289 aims to close gaps in healthcare access for immigrants.

“Expanding healthcare coverage to all children, pregnant and postpartum people, regardless of immigration status, is fundamental to correcting the root causes of health inequities in Colorado,” said Rep. Serena Gonzales-Gutierrez in a statement. “This law will be life-changing for undocumented children and pregnant people who call Colorado home and deserve to have access to the healthcare they need.”

Under the law, pregnant undocumented people who would otherwise qualify for Medicaid and the Children’s Basic Health Plan, or CHIP, would be provided full health insurance coverage for up to a year following a child’s birth. Undocumented children will be eligible until they turn 18.

The change is expected to cost just under $27 million. The federal government will pick up most of that bill, which means all American taxpayers are participating in this plan. The healthcare coverage for illegals will cost Colorado $9.4 million annually by 2025.

Colorado follows suit with states like California, Illinois, and New York, where illegal aliens are awarded driver’s licenses, health insurance, and protection from deportation.

DEA Seizes A Record-Breaking $20 Million In Fentanyl In Southern California

On Thursday, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) announced that it had seized approximately 1 million fake pills containing fentanyl in Inglewood, California, nine days earlier.

According to a statement from the DEA, the pills were seized on July 5 during a raid of a southern California home. The home is tied to a Los Angeles-area drug trafficking organization with links to Mexico’s Sinaloa Cartel.

According to the agency, the seizure is the largest ever made by the DEA in California. The fake pills have an estimated street value of $15-$20 million.

“This massive seizure disrupted the flow of dangerous amounts of fentanyl into our streets and probably saved many lives,” said DEA Special Agent in Charge Bill Bodner.

Los Angeles DEA agents, aided by the DEA New York Division Tactical Diversion Squad and the Hawthorne Police Department, began investigating the potential cartel-related drug ring in May. The group identified the Southern California narcotic couriers and stash house managers responsible for distributing the narcotics. After identifying the suspect, the agency conducted the raid on the Inglewood home.

The pills seized were produced in Mexico and designed to resemble brand-name prescription medications such as Oxycontin, Percocet, Vicodin, Xanax, and Adderall.

“The deceptive marketing coupled with the ease of accessibility makes these small and seemingly innocuous pills a significant threat to the health and safety of all our communities,” Bodner said.

Bonner noted that “a staggering number of teens and young adults are unaware that they are ingesting fentanyl in these fake pills and are being poisoned.”

Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid that is 100 times stronger than morphine and 50 times stronger than heroin. The drug was created as a legitimate pharmaceutical drug used to treat severe pain after surgery and in advanced-stage cancer patients.

House Passes $850 Billion NDAA, Adding $37 Billion More Than Biden Requested

The Senate still has to pass its own version, which will be even bigger, then the two chambers will negotiate the final bill

The House on Thursday passed its version of the 2023 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) that authorizes $850.3 billion for military spending, increasing President Biden’s requested budget by $37 billion.

The massive spending bill passed in a vote of 329-101, with 62 Republicans and 39 Democrats voting nay. The Senate still has to pass its version of the NDAA, which is even bigger than the House one at $858.5 billion. Once it passes the Senate, the two chambers will then negotiate the final version.

Lawmakers in the House attached hundreds of amendments to the NDAA, including some that could restrict arms sales if they make it to the final version.

Two amendments aimed at limiting arms sales to Saudi Arabia were added to the bill. One, offered by Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-VA), would prohibit the sale of what would be considered “offensive” to Saudi Arabia over Riyadh’s harsh treatment of dissidents.

The other Saudi amendment, offered by Reps. Ted Lieu (D-CA) and Ro Khanna (D-CA), would require an investigation into the use of US-provided arms by the Saudi-led coalition in Yemen. The coalition is notorious for hitting civilian targets with US-made weapons. According to Amnesty International, the coalition used a US-made precision-guided munition to bomb a migrant detention center in January, which killed at least 91 civilians.

President Biden is due to visit Saudi Arabia this weekend as his administration is reportedly considering expanding arms sales to the Kingdom.

Another amendment would block the sale of 40 F-16s to Turkey unless the president got assurances they wouldn’t be used to violate Greek airspace. The Biden administration came out in favor of the F-16 deal after Ankara lifted its objection to Finland and Sweden joining NATO.

UK Outraged After British Volunteer Dies In Russian Custody In Ukraine, Summons Ambassador

A British volunteer who had been arrested in April in the Russian-held southern Ukrainian city of Zaporizhzhia has died in captivity. He was being held by pro-Russian forces of the Donetsk People’s Republic (DNR) for "mercenary" activity.

British media and the UK government have long maintained that the 45-year old Paul Urey was an aid worker and was illegally detained. UK officials are outraged and are pressing the issue with Russian counterparts. "We are urgently raising this with our Ukrainian allies and the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs," the UK's Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office announced Friday.

Local media cited that his mother is "distraught and still in shock" after the foreign office notified her of his death. Authorities are still seeking "clarification" as to his fate, however.

22-year old Dylan Healy, of whom less is known at this point, had been arrested and detained alongside Urey. Russian media reports have accused the men of either being mercenaries or spies. The DNR has recently declared that foreign fighters will be sentenced to death if captured fighting on behalf of the Ukrainians.

In early June, a pair of Britons who were fighting as foreign volunteers for the Ukrainian army, 48-year old Shaun Pinner and 28-year old Aiden Aslin - were sentenced to death by a pro-Russian Donetsk court. They had been captured and Mariupol as it fell.

"Preparing To Apply For Membership" - Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Egypt Plan To Join BRICS

BRICS is the acronym coined over two decades ago that is associated with five major emerging markets: Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa. BRICS members account for over 40% of the global population and nearly a quarter of global GDP. The expansion of BRICS could be imminent as Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Egypt are in discussions to join the group of emerging market economies.

"All these countries [Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Egypt] have shown their interest in joining [BRICS] and are preparing to apply for membership. I believe this is a good step, because expansion is always looked upon favorably, it will definitely bolster BRICS' global influence," BRICS International Forum President Purnima Anand told Russian newspaper Izvestia.

Anand said that the group's 14th summit last month in China held expansion talks. Adding Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Egypt could open up a new era for global development as they would boost multilateral cooperation and comes at a time when the US and its Western partners are rebelling against globalization.

In May, Chinese President Xi Jinping said BRICS members have to "reject Cold War mentality and bloc confrontation, and work together to build a global community of security for all."

"I hope that these countries will join the BRICS quite shortly, as all the representatives of core members are interested in expansion. So it will come very soon," Anand added.

None of the BRICS leaders have publicly condemned Russian President Putin for his invasion of Ukraine earlier this year.

Huang Yanzhong, a senior fellow for global health at the Council on Foreign Relations, recently told Al Jazeera that BRICS is a "kind of diplomatic counteroffensive by China to both the revival of NATO and the increase in Indo-Pacific mechanisms that are designed to keep its power in check."

The announcement comes when President Biden is scheduled to meet with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MbS) without Saudi King Salman present. We correctly pointed out that Saudi Arabia's intention to join BRICS would be announced ahead of the Biden and MbS meeting.

The future and what appears to be an imminent expansion of BRICS is more evidence the world is transitioning into a multi-polar world that will challenge the US' dollar-based system for global trade.

Ex-CIA Agent Who Exposed How CIA Spies on Your TV, Phone, PC, & Mac — Convicted Of Biggest Theft In Agency History

A former CIA software engineer who leaked the so-called “Vault 7” tools was convicted Wednesday of causing the largest theft of classified information in the history of the agency.

Joshua Schulte, who has been sitting behind bars without bail since 2018 and chose to defend himself at trial, told the jury that the CIA and FBI made him a scapegoat for the 2017 WikiLeaks release of up to 34 terabytes of information.

Separately, Schulte awaits trial on possession of child pornography and transport charges, which he has pleaded not guilty to, according to Military.com.

As part of his defense, Schulte claimed he was singled out because “hundreds of people had access to (the information),” adding “Hundreds of people could have stolen it.”

“The government’s case is riddled with reasonable doubt,” he said. “There’s simply no motive here.”

Assistant U.S. Attorney David Denton countered that there was plenty of proof that Schulte pilfered a sensitive backup computer file.

“He’s the one who broke into that system,” Denton said. “He’s the one who took that backup, the backup he sent to WikiLeaks.”

The prosecutor also encouraged jurors to consider evidence of an attempted cover-up, including a list of chores Schulte drew up that had an entry reading, “Delete suspicious emails.”

“This is someone who’s hiding the things that he’s done wrong,” Denton said.

Once the jury got the case, Furman complimented Schulte on his closing argument. -Military.com

The judge complimented Schulte on his defense, saying “that was impressively done.”

Labour Party Blocks Public Inquiry Into Child Rape Grooming Gangs and Local Failures to Protect Girls

The local Labour Party-run council in Oldham rejected a motion to launch a public inquiry into the grooming gang sexual exploitation of children and the failures of local officials and police to protect them.

Following the release of a report on child sexual exploitation (CSE) in Oldham last month, which found that girls were failed by the very social services meant to protect them and failings among the local police and council, the Failsworth Independent Group (FIP) of local councillors introduced a motion to petition the government to establish an independent public inquiry into the failings.

The left-wing Labour Party introduced an amendment to strip the call for a public inquiry, neutering the motion, sparking fury from local observers of the town hall meeting, some of whom shouted “paedophile protesters” at the councillors, according to footage posted on social media. Due to the overwhelming majority they hold on the body, Labour was able to pass the amendment despite all members of the Failsworth Independents, Conservatives, and Liberal Democrats voting in opposition, the Manchester Evening News reported.

Conservative councillor Robert Barnes called the move a “travesty” and that it was “the night that democracy died in Oldham”.

Councillor Brian Hobin, from Failsworth Independents, said: “We can’t move on. Multiple failings have happened – general apologies; no good.

“We need a public inquiry, an independent one to tell us who failed and why, to tell us who knew and why and who did nothing about it and why.”

The Labour Party argue that instead of establishing an independent inquiry, funds should be directed to the ongoing police investigation into historical child sex abuse, Operation Sherwood.

‘Outrageous’: EU Commission Found Guilty for Refusing to Release Texts with COVID Vaxx Boss – Ombudsman

The European Commission is guilty of “maladministration” for its refusal to release text messages sent between the EU President and the head of vaxx company Pfizer, the bloc’s ombudsman has found.

A failure on the end of the European Commission to release text messages sent between President Ursula von der Leyen and the head of Pfizer constitutes “maladministration”, the bloc’s own ombudsman has found.

The commission had previously rebuffed any suggestion that it was obliged to release correspondence between the two leaders, despite MEPs calling on the Commission President to resign over the scandal after the ombudsman initially found EU tsars guilty of wrongdoing.

However, despite protests from EU bigwigs, the bloc’s ombudsman has now doubled down on its initial decision, saying that the whole scandal represented a wake-up call on the issue of accountability within Europe.

“One year after the initial request by a journalist, the Commission has still not clarified whether messages reported to concern major vaccine procurement deals exist and whether the public is entitled to see them,” a press release by the organisation released on Thursday read.

However, while the ombudsman has ruled against the Commission, questions still remain as to what good such a ruling it is not backed up with consequences, with Romanian MEP Cristian Terhes slamming Europe for its lack of accountability.

“Ursula von der Leyen’s cabinet has been found responsible for maladministration but there have not been any practical consequences. All the unelected bureaucrats keep their job, while von der Leyen remains unaccountable for her acts, behaving with blatant transparency deficit,” the elected representative told Breitbart Europe.

“It’s outrageous that von der Leyen and her bureaucrats are lecturing EU member states on rule of law, while they despise any sense of transparency and accountability,” he continued. “To save Europe the Europeans must vote out of office all the politicians and parties who are supporting these autocrats.”

“At the end of the day, they are in those high offices to serve the people, not that the people would serve them,” the European Conservatives and Reformists Group member went on to say.

The issue of transparency, or more specifically, a significant lack of it, has become a central issue in regard to the EU’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, with elected officials in Brussels repeated complaining of how little the bloc revealed in regards to its dealings with vaccine companies.

“Is this the kind of Europe that we want? Where an unelected by the people president of the European Commission is ‘negotiating’ — personally — with the head of a private company that will affect our basic fundamental human rights?” Terhes himself previously asked during a press conference on the issue, at which he showed off a contract between the EU and a vaccine manufacturer that was released with so many redactions that the majority of text on many pages was completely blacked out.

“This is the great transparency of the European Union,” he said, holding the pages up to those present, before saying that the bloc was in a “deep crisis” over a lack of transparency.

Another MEP, Ivan Vilibor Sinčić of Croatia, meanwhile emphasised that Europe had found itself in a “pandemic of corruption”.

Research Org Working With Wuhan Lab Tried To Use Jan 6 Riot To Stymie Covid Investigation

Attorneys for EcoHealth Alliance, the nonprofit group that funneled taxpayer money to the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) for dangerous bat virus experiments, argued in emails that it should not have to turn over records because of the “Jan. 6 disturbance.”

Peter Daszak, the head of EcoHealth Alliance, told the National Institutes of Health (NIH) he could not provide records about his research requested by the agency because of “intense geopolitical pressure” around the WIV and COVID-19, according to new emails obtained by Judicial Watch. Additionally, attorneys representing EcoHealth said a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request should be denied because of the Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021.

“[A]s demonstrated by the recent attack on the U.S. Capitol fueled by disinformation and conspiracy theories, the need to protect the privacy of EcoHealth Alliance’s employees and affiliates is more important than ever,” the law firm’s representative wrote.

NIH sought EcoHealth’s assistance in fulfilling a FOIA request, prompting the Jan. 6 excuse for not complying. Daszak’s deflection to “intense geopolitical pressure” came in response to an NIH request to provide all WIV biosafety reports from June 1, 2014 to May 31, 2019.

“Given the intense geopolitical pressure around the accusations that WIV intentionally or accidentally released SARS-CoV-2 (something which the WHO mission deemed ‘extremely unlikely’), obtaining such information is not a plausible option at present,” Daszak wrote in an email.

Daszak led the initial World Health Organization (WHO) investigation that determined a lab leak of COVID-19 from the WIV was “unlikely,” leading some observers to allege a conflict of interest.

Daszak’s organization has come under scrutiny for helping facilitate gain-of-function research at the WIV. These experiments make bat-based coronaviruses more transmissible and dangerous. EcoHealth Alliance has continuously denied any connection to the COVID-19 outbreak.

After Appearing to Be Reporting Live from Ukraine War Zone, Former CNN Host Chris Cuomo Spotted 24 Hours Later in the Hamptons

A couple of days ago, former CNN host Chris Cuomo appeared to be reporting live from Ukraine. 24 hours later he’s spotted in the Hamptons. What gives?

TGP reported two days ago that Chris Cuomo reported as if he was in the Ukraine reporting as an independent reporter.

Here is a video of Cuomo reporting ‘from Ukraine’.

This video reminded us of MSNBC nutjob Malcolm Nance putting on a helmet and claiming he was fighting alongside Ukraine against the Russians.

Daily Mail reports today that Cuomo was spotted in the Hamptons yesterday, one day after releasing his reports from Ukraine.

Former CNN anchor Chris Cuomo was spotted out in the Hamptons just a day after he appeared to be reporting live from Ukraine while rebranding himself as a ‘free agent’ in an effort to rehabilitate his career.

Cuomo looked relaxed in a casual t-shirt and ball cap as he strolled around Sag Harbor, New York on Tuesday with actor Gregg Bello, a friend who has supported the ousted anchor since his December 4 firing from CNN.

Cuomo, 51, announced on Instagram Monday that he was rebranding himself as a ‘free agent’ and shared videos of his reporting from Ukraine while plugging merchandise – including a ‘Free Agent’ shirt that his friend Bello was seen wearing on Tuesday.

Canadian government invests $8.5 million in insect production

LONDON, ONTARIO — Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada revealed June 27 an $8.5 million investment to Aspire, an insect agricultural company, to build a new production facility in Canada. The facility will process cricket-based protein, helping to advance the use of insect proteins in human and pet food products.

According to Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, food-grade processing of insects is relatively new in Canada, however insect-based proteins create an opportunity for the country’s agri-food industry to develop more sustainable products.

"The strength of Canadian agriculture has always been its openness to new ideas and new approaches,” said Peter Fragiskatos, parliamentary secretary to the Minister of National Revenue and member of Parliament for London North Center. “Aspire is helping to re-shape how we think about agriculture and opening the door to new product and market opportunities."

Founded in 2013, Aspire strives to tackle worldwide food scarcity with a focus on edible insect production, therefore developing highly nutritious foods and lowering its environmental impact. Currently, the company has production facilities in London, Ontario, and Austin, Texas. In 2020, Aspire purchased 12 acres of land in Ontario to construct what it expects to be the largest automated, food-grade cricket processing facility in the world.

"Aspire is re-imagining what it means to sustainably produce food, and how smart technology can turn that vision into a reality,” said Francious Drouin, parliamentary secretary to the Minister of Agriculture and Agri-food Canada. “Aspire's innovative facility will help further establish London's reputation as a hub for cutting-edge technology, strongly contributing to Ontario and Canada's position as an innovator in agriculture and agri-food."

Apsire plans to use the investment, as well as smart technology, to build its first commercial insect production facility in Ontario. The facility will boost Aspire’s insect farming capabilities, providing it with the ability to grow and monitor billions of crickets, which will be used to create nutrient-rich protein ingredients for use in the human and pet food industries.

"Aspire is grateful to Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada for its support of our first commercial facility,” said Mohammed Ashour, co-founder and chief executive officer of Aspire. “A growing population and increasing demand for food and material requires sustainable, scalable solutions that keep our world healthy."

The company plans to use technology to its advantage, significantly decreasing production costs, which will make its products more affordable to both Canada’s and the world’s food industries.

Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada’s investment comes from the AgriInnovate Program, an initiative committed to accelerating the commercialization of innovative products, technologies and processes that increase Canada’s competitiveness in the agriculture market.

"London attracts leaders and pioneers in technological innovation who are dedicated to making the world a better place,” said Arielle Kayabaga, member of Parliament London West. “Aspire will be at home here as the company re-defines what is possible in the insect protein sector, creating new solutions for sustainable food production."

Leaked Docs: Facebook ‘Bot’ Adviser Secretly in Pay of US Regime Change Agency

Documents shared with MintPress reveal that Valent Projects – a shadowy communications firm that advises social media platforms such as Facebook on alleged state-backed online influence campaigns – has itself received $1.2 million from U.S. intelligence front USAID, for “counter disinformation and communications support.”

This relationship has hitherto never been publicly acknowledged, and the resulting income is not reflected in the company’s published accounts.

On Valent’s direction, Facebook has purged huge numbers of Sudanese accounts and pages critical of the Western-backed government, helping to keep a controversial civilian and military administration in power. There are also suspicions the company may have played a role in the mass suppression of Ethiopian voices online supporting the government of Abiy Ahmed, and opposing U.S. attempts to overthrow him.

Valent Projects is the creation of Amil Khan, a veteran BBC and Reuters journalist turned British intelligence-adjacent information warfare professional. For many years, Khan worked on secret Foreign Office projects in Syria. There, he ran covert psyops campaigns targeting domestic and international audiences, trained ostensibly independent opposition journalists and activists to communicate effectively with the media, and provided propaganda support to numerous armed groups trained, funded, and armed by London and Washington.

Perversely, but perhaps unsurprisingly given his professional history, Khan is now an influential and well-remunerated component of the international counter-disinformation industry. He and his company receive vast sums from an assortment of prominent clients – not all of whom are advertised – for a variety of dubious services, including managing online astroturf campaigns, and identifying alleged foreign-borne propaganda and enemy government-backed “information operations” online.

Khan bills Valent Projects as “an integrated digital agency that works with clients who want to do good in the world.” But internal company documents passed to this journalist anonymously reveal that his disinformation busting efforts amount to a deeply sinister arm’s length state censorship mechanism.

There is no indication that Khan apprised social networks of his commercial connections to USAID when making representations to them about purported “inauthentic behavior”, “coordinated activity” and troll and bot accounts on their platforms – representations that result in independent activists, journalists and others being permanently suspended, and dissent crushed online.

By definition, this activity poses a grave, unseen, and wholly unaccountable threat to the ability of independent journalists, academics, activists, and regular citizens the world over to be heard online, if their perspectives contravene established Western narratives. And it represents yet another ominous example of how major social media platforms have been insidiously coopted and corrupted by national security interests.

The secret Ukrainian military programs

In 2016, the United States committed to arming Ukraine to fight and win a war against Russia. Subsequently, the US Department of Defense organized a biological research program in Ukraine, and then huge amounts of nuclear fuel were secretly transferred to the country. These data change the interpretation of this war: it was not wanted and prepared by Moscow, but by Washington.

Throughout this series of articles, which began a month and a half before the war in Ukraine, I have been developing the idea that the Straussians, the small group of Leo Strauss followers in the US administration, were planning a confrontation against Russia and China. However, in the tenth episode of this series, I related how the Azov regiment became the paramilitary pillar of the Ukrainian Banderists by referring to the visit of Senator John McCain to it in 2016 [1]. However, the latter is not a Straussian, but was advised by Robert Kagan during his presidential election campaign in 2008, a central thinker among the Straussians [2], even though he has always cautiously denied his membership in this sect.

The planning of the war against Russia

A video, filmed during John McCain’s visit to Ukraine in 2016, has resurfaced. It shows the senator accompanied by his colleague and friend, Senator Lindsey Graham, and Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko. The two Americans are traveling on a Senate mission. But McCain is also the president of the IRI (International Republican Institute), the Republican branch of the NED (National Endowment for Democracy). It is known that the IRI has conducted about 100 seminars for the leaders of Ukrainian political parties classified as right-wing, including for the Banderists. The senators are addressing officers of the Azov regiment, the main Banderist paramilitary formation. This should come as no surprise. John McCain has always maintained that the United States should rely on the enemies of its enemies, whoever they may be. Thus, he has publicly claimed responsibility for his contacts with Daesh against the Syrian Arab Republic [3]

At East Jerusalem hospital, Biden pledges $100 million for Palestinian health care

The US president stops at Augusta Victoria before traveling to meet Palestinian leader Abbas in Bethlehem; will take off for Saudi Arabia in the afternoon

US President Joe Biden on Friday announced an infusion of American assistance for six East Jerusalem hospitals that he said serve as “the backbone” of health care for Palestinians.

During a visit to Augusta Victoria Hospital on the third day of his trip to the region, Biden said that Palestinians and Israelis “deserve equal measures of freedom, security, prosperity and dignity, and access to health care when you need it is essential to living a life of dignity for all of us.”

Biden, in his speech, praised nurses and other health care workers for providing care and hope to the sick, and announced a commitment of $100 million by the US to Palestinian hospitals in East Jerusalem.

He began very personal remarks by asking, “Are there any nurses in the room?” and went on, amid laughter: “Because if not, I’m going home… If there are any angels in heaven – no, no, no, I mean this sincerely, from the bottom of my heart…

“My wife and daughter were killed and my boys were trapped in a vehicle for three hours when a tractor-trailer hit them; the doctor saved their lives, but the nurses made them want to live, cared for them every day,” he went on. He added: “I don’t think you nurses are nearly appreciated enough.”

He also discussed his own health problems, and the death of his son Beau.

Returning to more formal remarks, Biden promised, “The US will continue to work with the Palestinian leadership and the government of Israel and all our international partners to ensure that East Jerusalem’s hospital network remains sustainable and available, and is able to provide high-quality care the Palestinian people deserve,” he said.

The six East Jerusalem hospitals, emblematic of the Palestinian presence in the city, have faced a funding crisis in recent years, as the cash-strapped Palestinian Authority has struggled to pay for advanced treatment for Palestinians.

Augusta Victoria, which is operated by the Lutheran World Federation, ended 2021 in severe debt, with more than $70 million owed by the PA, according to a letter sent to US lawmakers in May. The hospital provides advanced medical care, including radiation treatment for cancer patients and pediatric kidney dialysis, to Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza.

Groups launched to help Jewish couples with IVF face uncertainty after Roe reversal

Organizations providing fertility services must navigate carefully when Jewish law seeks to protect the mother’s life but contravenes local statutes prohibiting abortion

Kristin had been trying to conceive for two years before learning that she had two blood-clotting conditions that increased her risk of miscarriage and could make pregnancy and childbirth dangerous or even fatal.

So she and her husband Shai moved to a contingency plan: seeking a surrogate to carry their baby. The Jewish couple assumed they would work with someone near their home state of Ohio, like Illinois or Minnesota, where surrogacy and termination laws are more lenient.

But then the US Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, ending abortion rights in the United States. Suddenly, Ohio prohibited abortion after just six weeks, and the prospect of new restrictions in other nearby states grew more real.

So with the support of Hasidah, a nonprofit that gives grants and guidance to Jewish families dealing with infertility, Kristin and Shai decided to seek a surrogate in Canada instead.

“It just made the most sense to protect the safety of a surrogate who’s doing this wonderful thing, this beautiful gift for us and making sure that her life can be protected above the life of a fetus or a clump of cells that is not even a child yet,” Kristin told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency. She asked that her last name be withheld for her privacy.

Ukraine Has Received First M270 Multiple Launch Rocket System From Its Western Allies

Ukraine has received the first M270 Multiple Launch Rocket System (MLRS) from its Western allies, the country’s defense minister, Oleksiy Reznikov, announced on July 15.

“Long Hand Family of Ukrainian army has been enlarged: the first MLRS M270 have arrived … They will be good company for [M142] HIMARS on the battlefield … Thank you to our partners,” Reznikov said on Twitter, without clarifying how many MLRS have been received.

Ukraine is set to receive a total of nine MLRSs from its Western allies. The UK will provide three M270B1 MLRS launchers, Norway will supply three outdated M270 launchers, which will be upgraded in the UK, and Germany will supply three M270A1 MARS II launchers.

In addition, the US has committed to supply a total of the very similar 12 HIMARS systems to Ukraine. Most of these systems have been already delivered.

Just like the HIMARS systems, the MLRS supplied to Ukraine will be armed with M30/M31 series GMLRS precision-guided rockets, which have a range of more than 70 kilometers. GMLRS rockets are guided by a GPS-aided inertial navigation system and a have a circular error probable of one meter.

The heavier tracked MLRS is slower and less mobile than the HIMARS. However, it has more fire power. Each MLRS can be loaded with two pods each armed with six GMLRS rockets.

While both the HIMARS and the MLRS are highly effective rocket artillery systems, they will not likely have any real impact on the conflict in Ukraine. Kiev’s Western allies hope that these systems will at least slow down the Russian special military operation in the country.

Hezbollah Smuggled Anti-Aircraft Missiles Into Syria In Trucks Carrying UN Marks – Report

Lebanon’s Hezbollah had smuggled man-portable air-defense systems (MANPADs) into Syria in trucks carrying the symbol of the United Nationals (UN), the Syrian pro-opposition Thiqa News Agency reported on July 12.

According to the report, the missiles were transported from Lebanon to the town of al-Qusayr in the southern countryside of Syria’s Homs in three Hyundai trucks covered in canvas emblazoned with UN symbols and in crates labeled humanitarian aid to prevent them from being attacked by the Israeli Air Force.

The news agency went on to claim that Hezbollah also deployed Iranian-made MANPADs in the Syrian mountainous region of Qalamun which lays right along the border with Lebanon.

Hezbollah will allegedly train its members on the use of these MANPADs “to repel any attack by the Israeli or American air forces” very soon.

Despite the lack of any evidence, the Thiqa News Agency’s report was quickly picked up by many Israeli outlets, including the Jewish News Syndicate and Israel Hayom.

The report is the most recent in a series of Israeli and Arab publications claiming that Iran and its allies are working to deploy air-defense systems in Syria. The lack of any evidence confirming the deployment of such Iranian systems in Syria suggests that the recent claims are just a coordinated propaganda campaign meant to provide a pretext for more Israeli attacks on the war-torn country.

11 arrests in Germany, Poland and the UK for smuggling migrants from Belarus into the EU

Europol’s Operational Task Force Flow targets the increase of migrant smuggling activities along the EU-Belarus border

A cross-border operation, coordinated by Europol and involving law enforcement authorities from Estonia, Germany, Lithuania, Poland and the UK, has led to the dismantling of an organised crime network smuggling migrants from Belarus into the EU. In addition to the arrests and house searches carried out during the action day, Estonian and Lithuanian law enforcement authorities carried out checks on vehicles travelling on internal roads and crossing external borders. The operational activities were carried out in the framework of Europol’s Operational Task Force Flow, set up to tackle migrant smuggling networks active along the EU-Belarus border.

The action day on 13 July led to:

Operational activities, checks and preventive measure in Estonia, Germany, Lithuania and Poland;

11 arrests (10 in Poland and 1 in the UK based on a German warrant);

1 high-value target arrested in the UK based on a German warrant;

28 locations searched (2 in Germany, 4 in Lithuania and 22 in Poland);

11 transfers detected with 11 facilitators and 60 migrants;

7 in Lithuania with 7 facilitators (nationals of Georgia, Latvia, Lithuania, Syria, Ukraine and Uzbekistan) and 44 migrants, all Iraqi nationals;

4 in Poland with 4 facilitators (nationals of Georgia, Syria and Ukraine) and 16 migrants (2 Afghan, 2 Indian, 8 Iraqi and 4 Syrian nationals);

Seizures include electronic equipment, various documents, evidence of money transfers, and cash.

Up to EUR 13 000 to be smuggled from Iraq to the EU via Belarus

The investigation detected 99 incidents of the illegal transportation of migrants and discovered 662 migrants smuggled by the targeted network, part of which was uncovered during the action day on 13 July. The same criminal network had previously taken a hit in January 2022, when Polish authorities arrested 20 suspects and seized more than the equivalent of EUR 500 000 cash in euros and dollars. The criminal group consisted of Syrian and Turkish nationals. They recruited the migrants from Iraq and arranged their transportation from Iraq/Baghdad into the EU.

The members of the criminal network were based in and acting from the countries across the smuggling route. Their tasks were divided hierarchically, with the majority of the individuals acting at different levels not knowing each other personally. The migrants paid between EUR 10 000 and EUR 13 000 for a full smuggling service from their country of origin, via Belarus, to Germany generating an estimated turnover of at least EUR 7 million for the criminal network. These payments were made via the hawala underground financial system. Hawaladars with residence in Berlin (Germany) also executed the payments for the drivers after receiving a proof of completion, such as pictures of migrants after arrival in their final destination.

The criminal network used Turkey as a transit country and logistical hub. Once in Turkey, the migrants legally travelled to Moscow with tourist visas, from where they were then transferred to the Belarusian capital Minsk, or Grodno, a city near the borders with Lithuania and Poland. From there, the migrants were then smuggled to Germany via Poland and Lithuania.

Michelle Obama’s Changing Sexual Identity

In promoting my new film and accompanying book, Michelle Obama 2024: Her Real Life Story and Plan for Power, I am asked one question far more often than any other. Is Michelle Obama a dude? In fact, it’s everywhere! Here is a sample of reader comments from Jack Cashill’s recent review of my film in WND:

Big Mike's born-with XY chromosomes

Michelle Obama IS NOT A WOMAN but a Man in Drag

Blatantly obvious Trannie

A drag queen President? Are you kidding?

Michael LaVaugtin Robinson, he still has his man parts

In my research on Barack and Michelle Obama, an exercise the major media have avoided, I find myself having to deal with this rumor as well as those about Barack’s sexual orientation. In 2014, comedienne Joan Rivers fueled both rumors in responding to a TMZ reporter who innocently asked her whether the U.S. would ever elect a gay president.

“We already have it with Obama, so let’s just calm down,” said Rivers, before adding, “You know Michelle is a tranny.” When asked to clarify her shocking remark, she articulated slowly, “A trans-gen-der. We all know.” River’s comments quickly fueled social media postings of photos depicting Michelle as a man, and close-up slow-motion videos of her dancing on The Ellen DeGeneres Show purporting to show something suspicious in her pants. Less than two months later, Rivers died as a result of what was supposed to be a minor throat procedure. Needless to say, her death cranked up the rumor mill, which quickly produced “Michelle and Barack are homosexual men with adopted children” and “Michelle Robinson was once a college football linebacker for the Colorado Buffalos”. At the time, I thought it was all mean-spirited nonsense, perhaps out of frustration over Michelle Obama’s America bashing politics.

Having recently obtained official documents from the state of Illinois, here is what I can say with assurance: I found proof in official documents that Michelle Obama registered to vote as a man in 1994. I also have official proof that, after 14 years of voting as a man, Michelle Obama changed her sex in 2008 from male to female. This is not more social media silliness, this is fact. I obtained the documents from the Illinois State Board of Elections only last week. Here is Michelle Obama’s official voter registration card from 1994 when she registered to vote as a man. The letter M is circled under Sex.

Then, on July 14, 2008, with her husband about to be nominated by the Democrats for the presidency, she changed her sex from male to female.

Why A Federal Judge Shouldn’t Toss The Case Enabling Stefan Halper To Pretend Russia Collusion Was Real

Hiding behind his lawyers and hoping to avoid questioning about his role in SpyGate, former confidential human source Stefan Halper implies in his most recent court filing that the Russia collusion story peddled during the 2016 election and after was “substantially truth.”

Later this morning, a federal judge in Virginia will consider Halper’s latest attempt to toss the lawsuit Svetlana Lokhova filed against him in December of 2020, which claims that the former confidential human source defamed her and alleges tortiously interference with a book contract she had.

This lawsuit represents the second case Lokhova filed against Halper, with her earlier defamation case against Halper and numerous media outlets dismissed because she waited too long to sue the majority of the defendants; the two timely claims failed because one isolated article was not defamatory and the final defendant was not responsible for a non-employee’s tweets.

After the district court dismissed her first lawsuit, Lokhova filed a second complaint in December 2020 against only Halper. In her second case, branded Lokhova II, the Russian-born British citizen, author, and academic again alleged defamation and tortious interference with contract claims.

Specifically, Lokhova’s second lawsuit alleged that “in March 2020, when Halper learned of the book” Lokhova was writing about Halper, “he directed his counsel, Terry Reed, to contact Post Hill Press and Simon & Schuster solely for the purposes of ‘quash[ing] publication and cancel[ling] the Book Contract.’” Reed then allegedly “contacted [Simon & Schuster] and [Post Hill Press] and falsely accused [them] of defaming Halper in the marketing materials.”

The complaint further alleged that through the letters, Halper “defamed and disparaged” Lokhova to the publishers and falsely accused her of “knowingly publishing” statements that were “false.” Additionally, it alleged that “Halper escalated the threats and intimidation to [Simon & Schuster’s] parent company, CBS Corporation.” The complaint in Lokhova II concluded that Halper’s accusations were untrue and that “[t]he sole purpose of Halper’s actions was to interfere with [Lokhova’s] Book Contract and induce [Post Hill Press] to terminate the Contract,” which it ultimately did after facing irresistible pressure from Simon & Schuster.
