Machines Stole Another Race in Colorado – Flipped Vote Totals from GOP Grassroots Favorite Lynda Wilson After Election Called and Gave Them to RINO Lundeen — BRAZEN FRAUD!

Lynda Zamora Wilson is a retired US Air Force officer with a PhD in Economics, an MS in Mathematics, MA in International Economics, and an MA in Education.

She was a senior economist at the Pentagon and an f-22 Flight Test Analyst.

Earlier this year Lynda jumped into the Republican primary race against incumbent state Senator Paul Lundeen.

Paul Lundeen, the GOP Minority Whip, is known as a RINO and Lynda Zamora Lundeen was new to politics.

Lynda was a grassroots favorite.

Via Colorado Politics — In April at the Colorado State Republican Party assembly Lynda Zamora Wilson won more votes than Lundeen. Wilson secured 52% compared to Lundeen’s 48%, the Glendale Cherry Creek Chronicle reported.

Lynda was on fire!

More from Colorado Politics —

Political newcomer and retired Air Force Lt. Col. Lynda Zamora Wilson is taking on the district’s incumbent and a GOP leader, Minority Whip Sen. Paul Lundeen, R-Monument.

This is the first time Lundeen — who is a favorite to become Senate president if Republicans flip the chamber — has faced a primary challenge during his nearly eight-year career in the Colorado legislature. Lundeen ran unopposed in the Republican primaries for the 2014 and 2016 House elections, as well as in his most recent 2018 Senate election.

Even more surprisingly, Wilson won more votes than Lundeen during the Colorado Republican Party’s state assembly on April 9. Though both candidates received more than 30% of the votes and, therefore, made it to the ballot, Wilson secured 52% compared to Lundeen’s 48%, the Glendale Cherry Creek Chronicle reported.

This victory came less than two weeks after Wilson entered the race, while standing at a significant fundraising disadvantage. As of Friday, her campaign raised just over $870 in contributions, while Lundeen’s campaign hauled in more than $73,000, according to data from the Secretary of State’s Office.

The winner of this Republican primary will likely go on to win the general election, given the dominance of Republican voters in the district — though the GOP victor will still need to defeat Democratic candidate Arik Dougherty, who is running uncontested in his party’s primary, in November.

The primary elections in Colorado were held on June 28, 2022.

It was a big night for Lynda Zamora Wilson.

At 8:12 she held a significant lead over incumbent Paul Ledeen.

Wilson was at 15,385 votes to Lundeen’s 6,675 votes — more than twice his total!

FBI Agent Who Covered For Hunter Biden is Russia Collusion Hoaxer – Per Sen. Grassley – The DOJ and FBI Are “Institutionally Corrupted to Their Very Core”

Senator Grassley outed dirty cops at the FBI of which there are many, if not all at this point. These crooks have been protecting their criminal handlers in the corrupt DNC while persecuting conservatives like the Jan 6ers locked up for over a year in the DC jail for protesting the stolen election.

Senator Grassley did what should have been done years ago. The DOJ and FBI are not criminal enterprises led by political crooks behind the Democrat party and its socialist agenda. These people are terrible people.

Grassley outed out a man by the name of Timothy Thibault in his first sentence:

On May 31, 2022, I wrote to you regarding likely violations of Federal laws, regulations and Federal Bureau of Investigation (“FBI”) guidelines by Assistant Special Agent in Charge (“ASAC”) Timothy Thibault of the Washington Field Office (“WFO”) based on a pattern of active public partisanship in his then public social media content.

Next, Grassley went on to discuss another FBI dirty cop by the name of Brian Auten:

First, it’s been alleged that the FBI developed information in 2020 about Hunter Biden’s criminal financial and related activity. It is further alleged that in August 2020, FBI Supervisory Intelligence Analyst Brian Auten opened an assessment which was used by a FBI Headquarters(“FBI HQ”) team to improperly discredit negative Hunter Biden information as disinformation and caused investigative activity to cease.

Senator Grassley released his letter today to the FBI stating that multiple whistleblowers have given him documentary evidence to buttress their allegations of criminal misconduct by the specific FBI personnel identified in his letter.

These two dirty cops working for dirty cop Chris Wray, Director of the FBI, have horrible track records. Thibault likely broke the Hatch Act and Auten was involved in the Russia collusion scam.

Real Clear Investigations shared on Auten:

“So with respect to the Steele reporting,” Auten told the committee, “the actual allegations and the actions described in those reports could not be corroborated.”

After years of digging, Auten conceded that the only material in the dossier that he could verify was information that was already publicly available, such as names, entities, and positions held by persons mentioned in the document.

These pieces of work have been hiding the truth from the American people for years. Always siding with Obama Democrats and against God-loving and America-loving conservatives. Grassley actually summed it up, years late, but nicely done:

The aforementioned allegations put a finer point on concerns that I have raised for many years about political considerations infecting the decision-making process at the JusticeDepartment and FBI. If these allegations are true and accurate, the Justice Department and FBI are – and have been – institutionally corrupted to their very core to the point in which the United States Congress and the American people will have no confidence in the equal application of the law. Attorney General Garland and Director Wray, simply put, based on the allegations that I’ve received from numerous whistleblowers, you have systemic and existential problems within your agencies.

Yes, the DOJ and FBI are totally corrupted from within. Congratulations lefties and Barack Obama. You rotted justice in America.

Russia Will Now Help Ukrainians "Get Rid Of Regime," Lavrov Says

Russia has for the first time stated as among its ultimate war aims achieving regime change in Ukraine. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said in Sunday remarks which were publicized Monday that Moscow will help the Ukrainian people "get rid of the regime" in Kiev.

Going into early summer, the Russian military had focused its battlefield goals on "liberating" the Donbas, but this latest Lavrov comment on removing Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky represents the most expansive war aim yet.

"We are determined to help the people of eastern Ukraine to liberate themselves from the burden of this absolutely unacceptable regime," Lavrov said while meeting with Arab League officials in Egypt.

He added for emphasis, "We will certainly help the Ukrainian people to get rid of the regime, which is absolutely anti-people and anti-historical," according to The Associated Press.

Though as yet unclear if Lavrov's provocative statements represent a change in official Kremlin policy, they do represent an about-face for the Russian top diplomat, given he early on in the invasion said that Russia was not looking to depose Zelensky.

The AP's reporting notes that "His remarks contrasted with the Kremlin’s line early in the war, when it repeatedly emphasized that Russia wasn’t seeking to overthrow Zelenskyy’s government, even as Moscow’s troops closed in on Kyiv. Russia later retreated from around the capital and turned its attention to capturing the Donbas."

A week ago Lavrov announced that Moscow has expanded its war aims, as FT recorded of his prior statement:

Sergei Lavrov said on Wednesday that Russia’s goals were more ambitious than Moscow had declared at the start of the war in February, when it claimed its goal was to "liberate" the eastern Donbas border region. Moscow’s war aims now extend to the provinces of Kherson and Zaporizhzhia in southern Ukraine, which are mostly occupied by Russian forces, Lavrov said.

Some political analysts in the West - the University of Chicago's John Mearsheimer foremost among them - have stated their belief that Moscow initially sought to limit operations to the East, in defense of the pro-Russian breakaway republics; however, Mearsheimer has argued that many variables have likely caused Putin to expand beyond these initial goals. Chief among the battlefield variables remains Washington and the West's continually escalating involvement, especially in weapons shipments - including longer range missile systems. Both sides keep escalating, with no signs that negotiations will happen anytime soon until something more decisive on the battlefield.

YouTuber Visited by Police for “Hate Crime” After Claiming Pedophiles Are Bad People

Kellie-Jay Keen, a women’s rights campaigner who often posts YouTube videos about child safeguarding and not wanting men to use women’s spaces, said she was visited by two Wiltshire Police officers after someone complained that one of her videos was being “being untoward about pedophiles.”

Keen said that when she questioned whether it’s a crime to be untoward about pedophiles, the police officers told her that it’s not a crime but “the person was offended” and the incident has been recorded as a “hate crime.”

Additionally, Keen claimed that the police officers told her they hadn’t even watched the video that was the subject of the complaint.

According to Keen, the complainant took issue with a segment in her “Thank you Marjorie Taylor Greene” video. In the segment, Keen read part of an article about Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene calling for children attending drag shows to be made illegal. She also read a section of the article that claimed “Greene is one of many conservatives to have recently railed against events like ‘Drag Queen Story Hour,’ while also saying that the LGBTQ community is attempting to ‘indoctrinate’ or ‘groom’ children.”

After reading these parts of the article, Keen said she agreed with Greene’s stance and that children attending drag shows is “grotesque.” Keen added, “It is often sexualized and I think that’s because with some men, more than some women, there is a disconnect between what is appropriate and what is inappropriate in front of children.”

Keen’s report of police visiting her over a YouTube video and recording it as a hate crime comes days after the UK’s College of Policing issued new guidance that told officers to focus on catching criminals instead of going after those that post social media content that’s deemed to be “offensive.”

And in her video about the incident, Keen accused her local police of ignoring burglary, theft, and other crimes in the area.

“I definitely know that there are people in this town, small town of mine, who will not have had any police response to being burgled or broken into or their bike being stolen or anti-social behavior,” Keen said. “There are people who go in local businesses and choose not to pay. The police don’t come. The police don’t care about any of that but they’ll knock on my door.”

The UK police have become infamous for investigating retweets, podcasts, and more and recording them as “non-crime hate incidents.” Over 120,000 non-crime incidents have been logged in the UK since 2014 but the UK Court of Appeals ruled that non-crime hate incidents were unlawful last year.

Despite non-crime hate incidents being ruled to be unlawful, the UK is still pushing a new “hate crime” strategy to encourage more people to report hate crimes. Campaigners have warned that this strategy could criminalize comedy.

The UK’s communications regulator, the Office of Communications (Ofcom) has also told tech platforms to protect women from “potential harms” – a term that it admits refers to something that may not cause any actual harm.

CCP Intelligence Recruits US Federal Reserve Economists, Congressional Investigators Reveal

Chinese intelligence has a systematic and well-funded campaign that successfully recruits U.S. Federal Reserve System economists and others to provide sensitive financial information and data in exchange for money and other benefits, according to Sen. Rob Portman (R-Ohio).

“This investigation makes clear that China’s malign efforts at influence and information theft are not limited to science and technology fields. American economic and monetary policy is also being targeted by the Chinese government,” Portman, the top Republican on the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs (HSGAC), said in a statement in conjunction with the release of a new report by congressional investigators.

The investigative report Portman made public on July 26 was prepared by the Republican staff of the Senate panel. The document updates a report on Chinese subversion in the United States released in 2019, when Portman was the committee’s chairman.

“As our investigation reveals, the Chinese government is using every tool at its disposal to infiltrate and steal valuable information. We cannot let the American taxpayer continue to unwittingly fund China’s military and economic rise, which is why our report makes strong recommendations to enhance and protect our Federal Reserve,” Portman said.

“This report shows that we cannot make any American taxpayer-funded investment in science, technology, or economic policy without including safeguarding and security protections like my proposed ‘Safeguarding American Innovation Act.‘”

While Portman’s proposal has 17 co-sponsors, including a dozen Republicans and five Democrats, the Democratic-controlled HSGAC hasn’t held a hearing or otherwise moved to consider the proposal. Sen. Gary Peters (D-Mich.) succeeded Portman as committee chairman in 2021.

“This investigation of the U.S. Federal Reserve shows how China has used a variety of tactics to recruit U.S.-based economists to provide China with knowledge and intellectual capital in exchange for monetary gain and other benefits,” the report says.

The report says Fed investigators have identified at least 13 individuals within the financial system who represent “stark examples of the ways in which the Chinese government has attempted to gain access to sensitive internal information and influence the Federal Reserve.”

Jill Biden’s Press Secretary Leaving White House

First lady Jill Biden’s longtime press secretary Michael LaRosa is leaving the White House, he confirmed Tuesday.

“For a kid from Easton, Pennsylvania, who only ever dreamed of stepping foot into this history-rich residence for a tour, working for First Lady Jill Biden in the White House has been the proudest and most rewarding experience of my life,” LaRosa said in a statement to The Washington Post about his departure. His last day is Friday.

LaRosa, a former MSNBC producer, joined Joe Biden’s campaign in 2019 as Jill Biden’s spokesman before he was named press secretary to the first lady in January of last year.

“I am forever grateful to her for taking a chance on me nearly three years ago, bringing me on this journey with her around the country, and the privilege of being a small part of the history,” he added to the paper.

Reports say LaRosa is planning to join Hamilton Place Strategies, a Washington-based public affairs company. It’s not clear who will be named to replace him as the first lady’s spokesperson.

“For nearly three years, from the campaign to the White House, Michael has brought an encyclopedic knowledge of politics and media to my team as my spokesperson and adviser,” Jill Biden told CNN. “On a small team, loyalty and friendship are lifelong—we will miss Michael. However, we are excited for him to begin a new chapter in his career.”

EXCLUSIVE DOCUMENTARY — NARCOFORNIA: How Progressives Sold Out Rural California To Drug Lords

The Daily Caller released a documentary Tuesday depicting the effects of California’s marijuana legalization on local communities.

“Narcofornia” documents two counties’ fights against drug cartels taking over their respective communities in Northern California. In Siskiyou County, the fight has pitted Californians against Asian refugees. Meanwhile, Lassen County residents scuffle with each other over whether they should embrace legal marijuana to weed out the illegal grows. Both counties’ conflicts highlight California’s legislative and legal failures and their abandonment of rural America.

IMF Slashes Global Growth Forecast: Teetering on the Edge of a Global Recession

The global economy may soon be teetering on the edge of a recession and will likely grow more slowly than previously expected this year and next year, the International Monetary Fund said Tuesday.

“The global economy is facing an increasingly gloomy and uncertain outlook. Many of the downside risks flagged in our April World Economic Outlook have begun to materialize,” International Monetary Fund (IMF) chief economist Pierre-Olivier Gourinchas said in a blogpost accompanying the Washington-based institute’s report.

The IMF now expects the world economy to grow 3.2 percent this year, down from the April projection of 3.6 percent. Next year, global growth is expected to slow to 2.9 percent, 0.7 percent below the earlier forecast.

“The outlook has darkened significantly since April. The world may soon be teetering on the edge of a global recession, only two years after the last one,” Gourinchas said.

A general rule of thumb is that global growth below two percent qualifies as a recession. While national recessions typically involve negative growth over two quarters, the global economy almost never shrinks so a very low level of growth is considered a slump.

The report cited central bank tightening, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and China’s Covid lockdowns as slowing economic growth.

“Higher-than-expected inflation, especially in the United States and major European economies, is triggering a tightening of global financial conditions. China’s slowdown has been worse than anticipated amid COVID-19 outbreaks and lockdowns, and there have been further negative spillovers from the war in Ukraine. As a result, global output contracted in the second quarter of this year,” Gourinchas said.

Advanced economies are expected to grow 2.5 percent this year and to slow to 1.4 percent next year. The IMF projects that Spanish GDP will grow 4.0 percent this year and 2.0 percent in 2023, the best growth among the the group. The U.S. economy is seen as growing 2.3 percent this year and 1.0 percent next year. Germany’s economy is seen as the weakest, growing just 1.2 percent this year and 0.8 percent next year.

Growth in emerging and developing economies is projected to hit 3.6 percent this year and rise to 3.9 percent next year. China is expected to grow 3.3 percent in 2022 and 4.6 percent next year.

W.H.O. Appoints Veteran Communist Party of Britain Member to Advisory Panel

A veteran Communist Party of Britain member has been appointed chair of a World Health Organisation (W.H.O.) lead advisory group.

Professor Susan Michie, director of the Centre for Behaviour Change at University College London (UCL), will head the W.H.O.’s Technical Advisory Group (TAG) on Behavioural Insights and Sciences for Health.

The Times reports the UCL academic, who is a frequent contributor on the BBC and ITV, has been a member of the Communist Party of Britain for more than 40 years.

Michie was propelled to public attention in 2021 when she said wearing masks and social distancing should continue for the “long term” to suppress the Chinese coronavirus and other diseases, as Breitbart London reported.

The academic was a member of the influential Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (SAGE) at the time which advised Downing Street on how to respond to the pandemic. She said “people’s behaviour” was key in controlling the pandemic.

Michie told Channel 5, according to the Daily Telegraph: “That is the behaviour of social distancing, of when you’re indoors, making sure there’s good ventilation or if it’s not, wearing face masks, of hands and surface hygiene.

“We will need to keep this going in the long term and that will be good not only for Covid, but also to reduce others [sic] diseases.”

What is this ‘rules-based international order’ that Western elites keep talking about?

US President Joe Biden has beaten the drum that Americans will have to pay high prices for energy for “as long as it takes” to stick it to Russia in Ukraine. A couple of months ago, when one of Biden’s advisors, Brian Deese, was quizzed about the president’s response to the price hikes on CNN, he replied: “This is about the future of the liberal world order and we have to stand firm."

In 2016, then Vice-President Joe Biden said to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau during a visit to Ottawa: “The world is going to spend a lot of time looking to you Mr. Prime Minister as we see more and more challenges to the liberal international order than any time since the end of World War Two.”

French President Emmanuel Macron invoked a similar concept of fighting to maintain a certain “world order” during his press conference at the conclusion of the G7 Summit this June in Germany, when he said that the Russia-Ukraine conflict upsets the principles of international rules that have been established since 1945. Macron didn’t elaborate, but that was the year the United Nations was created and France was given a permanent seat on its security council alongside the US, Russia, the UK, and China.

Also in June, when European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen visited New Zealand’s Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, both leaders issued a joint statement that “reaffirmed New Zealand's and the European Union's strong commitment to multilateralism and the rules based international order.”

CIA Director "Very Proud" Of Afghanistan Analysis That Led To Disastrous Withdrawal

Close enough for government work’ has taken on a whole new dimension in the Biden era with the remarks reportedly delivered by CIA Director William Burns Wednesday at an Aspen Security Forum discussion. Jerry Dunleavy of the Washington Examiner has the story.

CIA Director William Burns said he is “very proud” of the agency’s analysis in Afghanistan in 2021 despite being blindsided by the swift collapse of the Afghan government and failing to predict how quickly the Taliban would take Kabul. (snip)

Burns said Wednesday during an Aspen Security Forum discussion that he was “very proud … of the analysis, with all of its imperfections, that we tried to provide to policymakers over the six months leading up to the withdrawal.”

The CIA director prefaced this by admitting the agency had not predicted the Taliban would take over the country as fast as they did and that “all of us have lessons to learn from experiences like that.” He suggested that the CIA had at least gotten it less wrong than other parts of the U.S. government.

“As the president has said publicly, none of us anticipated that the Afghan government was going to flee as quickly as it did, that the Afghan military was going to collapse as fast as it did,” Burns said.

“Having said that, I think CIA at least was always on the more pessimistic end of the spectrum in terms of highlighting, you know, over the course of the spring and the summer, the obvious ways in which the Taliban were advancing rapidly and how this was hollowing out in many ways, not just the political leadership but also the military.”

Burns shared the CIA’s assessment in July 2021, when he did not say he believed the country would fall in half a year, let alone in less than a month.

“Less wrong” than other parts of the government is not exactly a standard of excellence.

How can one be very proud of being “less wrong”?

Russia pulls out from ISS to enter ROSS

The main priority for Roscosmos now is to provide the Russian economy with required space services, such as navigation, communications, data transmission, meteorological and geodetic information, etc.

As for manned space exploration, Roscosmos will deal with the creation of the Russian Orbital Service Station (ROSS). This project is to replace the ISS for Russia.

Earlier in July, Roscosmos press service chief Dmitry Strugovets said that without Russia the ISS would last for no more than five years.

Cosmonaut Andrei Borisenko believes that Russia's decision to exit the ISS project is not going to lead to critical consequences. Russian cosmonauts will continue working under another domestic program.

"Russian cosmonauts will no longer be delivered to the ISS. They will work under a different program,” Borisenko told lenta.ru. "It goes about the creation of our own national orbital station. I think that any decision of this kind was made on thew basis of all aspects of life around us. The decision was made, and one shall assume that there was solid ground for it," he said.

However, not earlier than six months ago, former Roscosmos chief Dmitry Rogozin assured that it was too early to write the ISS off.

Russia has been developing the National Space Station since the mid-2000s. It is believed that the new station will be called ROSS. It will not just replace the ISS, but will serve as a base for the Russian lunar program.

The United States also eyes on flights to the Moon. Astronauts from Europe, Japan, Great Britain and other countries are to take part in the Artemis program. Apparently, Russia will be working alone in this direction, Andrey Ionin, a corresponding member of the Tsiolkovsky Russian Academy of Cosmonautics believes.

"Any international project means a tight deadline. In any national project, the timeline will shift to the right. It transported that the station bears a name that excludes international cooperation. I would very much like the project to be initially established as an international one. It is up to the president to make such an announcement. May I be excused, but this is not a prerogative of the chief of Roscosmos or the vice prime minister,” Andrey Ionin said, The Kommersant wrote.

Reports about technical problems on board the International Space Station have become more frequent lately. Moreover, the service life of the station has been extended repeatedly. Foreign states have not abandoned the ISS project yet. NASA, for example, plans to lease its compartments to private companies.

By and large, the ISS will continue to operate. Cracks and holes in ISS modules are simply used as a convenient excuse. Experts believe that Russia's decision to pull out from the project comes as a wish to get rid of ties with the United States in space.

Chabad demands return of the Schneerson library archives from Russia

Chabad’s approach to Israel’s government is: Don’t give the Russians control over the Jerusalem compound without demanding the return of the Schneerson library archives.

The Chabad Hasidic movement has begun legal proceedings against Russia and urged Israeli authorities to only give Russia control of the Alexander Courtyard church compound in Jerusalem - if they return the Schneerson library archives.

Russia’s intentions to close down the activities of the Jewish Agency throughout the country have brought about another crisis as well. The Chabad movement in the US has begun legal proceedings against Russia. Representatives of Chabad appealed to Attorney-General Gali Baharav-Miara, demanding that the process for the transfer of ownership of real estate in Jerusalem (and, particularly, the Alexander Courtyard church) to the Russian government be frozen.

Israeli attorney Uri Keidar, who is representing Chabad in this legal battle, sent a letter to Baharav-Miara on Sunday.

In the letter, it is explained that the “Schneerson Library” is a historical collection of the global Chabad movement and that the collection includes approximately 12,000 books and original writings, which were gradually collected and preserved since the end of the 18th century.

The Schneerson library is a unique collection of books that belonged to the dynasty of Lubavitch rabbis before the Russian Revolution and was nationalized by the Soviet Government in the 1920s.

New Zealand: Social Media Companies Agree to Censor “misinformation” and “harmful” Content

Giant social networks operating in New Zealand will from now on “voluntarily” self-regulate to further suppress content considered misinformation and hate speech.

Those signing up to what’s known as Aotearoa (New Zealand) Code of Practice for Online Safety and Harms include Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Amazon’s Twitch, Twitter, and TikTok.

The initiative comes from Netsafe – a New Zealand non-profit that describes itself as having “unrelenting focus on online safety.” Under the terms of the code they just agreed to, these social media heavy-hitters are expected to “actively” work on reducing “harmful” content.

It is not stated what type of action the platforms will now be taking in order to achieve that goal, but the companies behind them will be publishing reports each year to demonstrate compliance, and will detail what tools, policies, processes and systems are being used to this end.

The full list of areas where censorship will be tightened includes child sexual exploitation and abuse, bullying or harassment, hate speech, incitement of violence, violent or graphic content, misinformation, and disinformation.

The code itself is said to be modeled after the EU Code of Practice on Disinformation, the EU Code of Conduct on Countering Illegal Hate Speech Online and the Australian Code of Practice on Disinformation and Misinformation. Netsafe considers the code as a way to fill “regulatory gaps” around misinformation and hate speech.

Members of the public will be able to report a social media company if they “believe” the code has been broken on its platform, and file complaints. One of the punitive measures is apparently asking these tech giants to “leave the agreement.”

The only criticism heard so far of the code is that it is a way to avoid government regulation and thus any “real change and accountability,” as well as that in drafting the code, Netsafe worked with the industry first instead of with the communities that are considered most at risk to said online harm.

At the same time, New Zealand is preparing to adopt actual new laws that would impose further censorship of content labeled as misinformation or hate speech.

AIPAC-funded Michigan Democrat may overthrow Jewish political dynasty

Lobby group prefers the non-Jewish Haley Stevens, seen as more likely to fulfill its vision of US-Israel ties, to Andy Levin, who believes in conditioning funds to the Jewish state

The Democratic primary next week in Michigan’s newly redrawn 11th District could end a four-decade Jewish political dynasty — and spending by the country’s biggest pro-Israel lobby is playing a significant role.

Because of redistricting, the race pits two incumbent Democrats against each other: Representative Andy Levin, a Jewish Democrat who favors conditioning aid to Israel and counts some of Congress’s most outspoken Israel critics as his friends, and Representative Haley Stevens, a non-Jewish centrist whose Israel commitments lie mainly in assuring its military security.

Stevens has been the recipient of millions of dollars in outside funding far from United Democracy Project, the political action committee launched last year by AIPAC, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee. She is polling over 20 points ahead of Levin.

AIPAC broke from 70 years of studious avoidance of electoral politics when it launched the PAC, in a sign that the group no longer believed that its traditional activities were sufficient to guarantee that its vision of Israel support would prevail in Congress.

Now, the group is testing its theory in multiple primaries where progressive candidates are seen as vulnerable. Through Sunday, AIPAC’s PAC had spent $3,178,469 supporting Stevens’ candidacy and another $174,437 opposing Levin’s, according to federal election data collected by Open Secrets, a website that tracks political spending. AIPAC’s giving has made up nearly 60% of outside spending on behalf of Stevens, according to federal data.

All in the Family: Biden Admin Loans Billions to Company Repped by Top Aide’s Lobbyist Brother

The Biden administration is loaning billions of dollars to General Motors to make electric car batteries after months of lobbying from a top Biden adviser's brother.

The Department of Energy announced it will lend $2.5 billion to the auto giant to manufacture lithium-ion batteries for electric cars, part of President Biden's goal to make the U.S. auto fleet 50 percent electric by the end of the decade. The loan is the latest Biden-era windfall for General Motors, which over the past year has paid Beltway lobbyist Jeff Ricchetti nearly $350,000 to lobby the government on federal subsidies for electric vehicles and charging stations. Ricchetti is the younger brother and former lobbying partner of White House adviser Steve Ricchetti. The longtime Biden aide, who lobbied for GM until 2008, has been directly involved in discussions with Congress about funding for electric vehicles and charging stations.

The Ricchetti relationship has long raised ethics concerns in Washington. White House ethics lawyers forced Steve Ricchetti to recuse himself from matters involving four of his brother's clients, though not GM. The Washington Post reported last year that Ricchetti's work on issues related to GM undercut Biden's pledge to "restore ethics in government."

The loan to GM is the first the Department of Energy has made since 2010 under its Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing Loan Program. The controversial initiative has been marred by a series of ill-advised loans, including $530 million to Fisker Automotive, a now-defunct hybrid car maker, and $50 million to a van company linked to a prominent Obama donor.

GM has enjoyed extensive access to the Biden administration. Biden in November visited a GM plant and in January praised the company for announcing plans to build a $7 billion battery manufacturing plant, the same facility now slated to receive the Department of Energy loan. The head of GM's public policy unit and its general counsel in March met at the White House with Steve Ricchetti, the Washington Free Beacon reported.

Jeff Ricchetti's firm and the White House did not respond to requests for comment. The brothers have previously denied that they discuss matters involving Jeff's lobbying clients.

Blackstone Prepares A Record $50 Billion To Snap Up Real Estate During The Coming Crash

The past two months have seen a barrage of negative news coverage focusing on the US housing market…

Is The Housing Crash Starting?

Why The Housing Bubble Bust Is Baked-In

The One Housing Chart That Shows A 'Buyer's Market' Has Returned

As Mortgage Rates Explode Price Cuts Soar And Buyer Demand Collapses

Housing Market Peaks: Home Prices Finally Drop From All-Time Highs

… which is predictable: after all, with mortgage rates soaring at the fastest pace on record to decade highs, and sending US housing affordability to the lowest in history…

.. only a handful of the "1%" can afford the American Dream.

Alas, it also means that just like in 2007, a housing crash is now just a matter of time.

That much is known. What is also know, is that once housing craters, the largest US residential and commercial landlord - private equity giant Blackstone - is about to get even bigger. That's when it will deploy some (or all) of the record $50 billion in dry powder it has raised to prepare for just the coming housing crash.

According to the WSJ, Blackstone is the final stages of raising a new real-estate fund that would set a record as the biggest vehicle of its kind, defying market volatility and a crowded landscape for fundraising.

The private-equity giant said in a regulatory filing Wednesday it has closed on commitments totaling $24.1 billion for Blackstone Real Estate Partners X, the latest iteration of its main real-estate fund.

According to the WSJ, Blackstone is committing about $300 million of its own capital and has allocated an additional $5.9 billion to investors, which will bring the fund to $30.3 billion when it is finalized. The firm raised the fund, expected to be the largest traditional private-equity vehicle in history, in just three month. It was also Blackstone that set the prior record, with the $26 billion buyout fund it raised in 2019. The new real-estate fund will be 50% larger than its predecessor, a $20.5 billion pool raised in 2019.

Together with funds dedicated to real estate in Asia and Europe, Blackstone will have a war chest of more than $50 billion to do so-called opportunistic investments, which tend to be higher-risk deals with the potential for higher returns.

Israel Caught Concealing Children’s Vaccine Injuries

Israel’s Ministry of Health commissioned a study analyzing reports of adverse events from Pfizer’s COVID vaccine to Israel’s vaccine database, known as the Nahlieli system, between December 2021 and May 2022. The research team was headed by Professor Matti Berkowitz, director of the Clinical Pharmacology and Toxicology Unit at Assaf Harofeh Hospital (Shamir).

Prof. Berkowitz’s team found that children in the 5-11-year age group had twice to four times as many adverse events following the Pfizer shot as children in the 12-17 age group. This doubling of vaccine injuries is, in itself, extremely disturbing — and should have been immediately brought to the attention of the nation’s parents.

The parents were not informed. What’s more, the Ministry officials recommended booster shots for youngsters aged 5-11—thereby increasing the risk for serious harm.

Furthermore, the doubling of adverse events is only the beginning of the bad news.

As Dr. Yaffa Shir-Raz, a health and risk communication researcher at the University of Haifa and at Reichman University, explained: the 2-dose immunization rate for 5 to 11-year-olds is less than 18%, while older children have rates of 55-72% (3-4 times higher).

“That means that the young children would thus be expected to have ⅓-¼ of the number of adverse events experienced by the older children, not twice as many. This means that the adverse event rate for young children is actually 6-8 times that of the older children, i.e., at 600-800% of the baseline injury rate!”

It is unconscionable that the Israeli Health Ministry knew about the serious risks of harm posed to young children, concealed the evidence, and further expanded the ever-increasing risk for children by authorizing the use of these UNSAFE and medically unjustifiable genetically manipulated injections for infants and toddlers!

The exposure of children to unjustifiable risks constitutes — as the late Dr. Vladimir Zelenko fearlessly categorized diabolical child sacrifice.

The disturbing findings by Prof. Berkowitz and his team are not the first warning signal regarding the safety of Pfizers’ COVID vaccine in children.

Active monitoring for adverse events was conducted by the HMOs in Israel for about four months among 172 children aged 5-11, who were vaccinated as an initial group outside the label (under the authorization of the vaccine for kids 12-15 years old), also demonstrated acute safety signals (Ministry of Health circular: “Vaccination of kids aged 5-11 years against the new Coronavirus – an exception for individual cases from 27.7.21”, reference 548562821). Another flashing warning light rises from the gap found among vaccinated kids aged 5-11 years old between the number of those who received the first dose and the number of those who received the second dose. According to data from the Ministry of Health, there is a gap of 92,000 children.

Australian rugby players boycott game after team unveils LGBT ‘pride’ jersey

Neither the players nor the team’s stakeholders were informed of the jersey until it was announced Sunday.

Seven players from a Sydney-based rugby team told the team coach that they would not participate in a recent game since the team’s new jersey incorporated the LGBT flag.

Speaking at a press conference Monday, Manly Warringah Sea Eagles coach Des Hasler said that seven players – Josh Aloiai, Jason Saab, Christian Tuipulotu, Josh Schuster, Haumole Olakau’atu, Tolutau Koula and Toafofoa Sipley – chose not to play for cultural and religious reasons. The Daily Telegraph reported that several first-time players also declined to play in Thursday’s upcoming game against the Sydney Roosters.

Hasler told reporters Tuesday that he respects the players’ decision not to play. “The players will not play on Thursday and we accept their decision,” Hasler said. “These young men are strong in their beliefs and convictions and we will give them the space and support they require.”

Peter V’landys, chairman of the Australian Rugby League Commission, told reporters that while he also respects the players’ choice, he still desires to push inclusion in the sport. “One thing I take pride in with rugby league is we treat everyone the same,” V’landys said. “It doesn’t matter your color, sexual orientation or race. We’re all equal.”

“We’ll never take a backward step in having our sport inclusive. But at the same time we will not disrespect our players’ freedoms,” he added.

National Rugby League (NRL) regulations dictate that all players wear matching uniforms, preventing the players from wearing alternate jerseys for the match against the Roosters. Manly was the only team that announced that it would use a pride-themed jersey this year, the Associated Press reported.

Following their announcement, the players have been subject to criticism online, being branded as bigoted and homophobic.

Dynasty Sport, the jersey’s designer, sold out of men’s and women’s sizes within a day of the announcement. A statement made Monday by the Sea Eagles stated that the two companies desired to use a pride-themed jersey for years.

“The ‘Everyone in League’ Jersey is something we’ve wanted to do for a number of years now,” said Dynasty Sport founder and director Tyler Rakich. “As soon as we got the concept locked in, all parties have contributed to make it what it is and it’s something we’re all really proud of.”

FBI’s False Labeling Of Biden Laptop As Disinformation Is Even Worse Than It Seems. Here’s Why

FBI whistleblowers claim that agents opened a sham investigation into Hunter Biden to brand reliable and verifiable derogatory evidence as “disinformation,” according to an explosive news release issued yesterday by Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa.

If true, beyond exposing the FBI’s role in running cover for the Biden family, the whistleblowers’ claims prove significant for a second reason: By failing to thoroughly vet the evidence in its possession related to Hunter Biden — which included the hard drive for the MacBook Hunter had abandoned at a repair shop — the intelligence community ignored a momentous national security threat, namely that the Russians potentially possessed a second Hunter Biden laptop.

Late Monday, Grassley issued a news release citing “multiple FBI whistleblowers, including those in senior positions,” who raised “the alarm about tampering by senior FBI and Justice Department officials in politically sensitive investigations,” including “investigative activity involving derogatory information on Hunter Biden’s financial and foreign business activities.” According to the Iowa Republican, the whistleblowers alleged that Washington Field Office Assistant Special Agent in Charge Timothy “Thibault and other FBI officials sought to falsely portray as disinformation evidence acquired from multiple sources that provided the FBI derogatory information related to Hunter Biden’s financial and foreign business activities, even though some of that information had already been or could be verified.”

The news release added that “in August of 2020, FBI supervisory intelligence analyst Brian Auten opened an assessment, which was used by a team of agents at FBI headquarters to improperly discredit and falsely claim that derogatory information about Biden’s activities was disinformation, causing investigative activity and sourcing to be shut down.” “The FBI headquarters team allegedly placed their assessment findings in a restricted access subfolder, effectively flagging sources and derogatory evidence related to Hunter Biden as disinformation while shielding the justification for such findings from scrutiny,” according to Grassley.

The Iowa senator claimed that “Thibault also reportedly ordered the closure of a stream of information related to Hunter Biden and sought to improperly mark the matter within FBI systems in a way that would prevent it from being re-opened in the future.” “The FBI headquarters team allegedly claimed that reporting from the stream was at risk of disinformation,” but the whistleblowers told Grassley, “that all of the information obtained through that stream was already verified or verifiable.”

This scandal is no longer just about the Biden family; it is about every member of the law enforcement and intelligence communities who put our country at risk by failing to do their jobs.

Ukraine Issues Blacklist Of 'Russian Propagandists', Includes US Senator & Prominent Journalists

The Ukrainian government has published a list of politicians, academics, and activists who it claims promote "Russian propaganda". Absurdly, it includes high American officials - even a sitting US senator - and a Pulitzer Price winning journalist.

A Kiev government-linked agency called the Ukrainian Center for Countering Disinformation released the list earlier this month, identifying figures such as Republican Senator Rand Paul, former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI), military analyst Edward Luttwak, University of Chicago professor and international relations theorist John Mearsheimer, and award-winning journalist Glenn Greenwald, formerly of The Intercept, among many others.

A number of notable international names are on the list as well, such as French populist political leader Marine Le Pen, or even an Italian General named General Leonardo Tricarico, who blames Ukraine for Russia's invasion and has urged immediate negotiations to end the war.

Some of those on the list, such as Edward Luttwak, have actually loudly supported sending Western arms to Ukraine's military. In Luttwak's case, he was apparently deemed by Ukrainian officials a 'pro-Russian propagandist' merely for proposing a war-time compromise of allowing referendums in the breakaway Donetsk and Luhansk regions.

According to Unheard, the criteria for making the list has not been revealed:

The exact criteria for inclusion are also unclear, although next to each name the report lists the "pro Russian" opinions the individual promotes. For example, Edward Luttwak’s breach was to suggest that "referendums should be held in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions"; Mearsheimer’s breach is recorded as him saying that "NATO has been in Ukraine since 2014” and that "NATO provoked Putin."

The relevant intellectuals were surprised and concerned to be included on a government blacklist in this way.

So it seems merely straying in any small way from the point of view of Ukrainian leadership gets one branded a "pro-Russian" propagandist.

Assimilate & Destroy: The Rockefeller Foundation’s Role in Exploiting Then Suppressing Natural Medicine

Born in New York, John Davison Rockefeller (1839-1937) was the world’s first billionaire1 (he’d be worth around $13.7 billion in today’s money). As a Republican, Rockefeller supported Abolition, back when southern Democrat-voting industrialists profited from their human property. He was also a Methodist/Baptist Christian who believed that god had made him rich.

In 1864, he founded the grain and produce company, Clark, Rockefeller, & Co., with business partner, Maurice Clark (1827-1901). The company profited from the American Civil War (1861-65)2 and Rockefeller used his money to establish the company that made him his fortune: Standard Oil of California. With notions of the Protestant work ethic and Christian charity, Rockefeller and his employees attempted to craft an image of the family dynasty as philanthropic.

Rockefeller’s various institutes and foundations spawned other entities, including the University of Chicago, the General Education Board, and the eponymous Institute for Medical Research. But diary entries, papers, letters, and memos from the time confirm that the motive was primarily to make the public healthier and more educated in order to get them to work for the businesses in which Rockefeller had invested. By the mid-20th century, it was clear that “philanthropy” was also a massive, legal tax dodge.3

Rockefeller’s profit-making agenda included the promotion of so-called “scientific medicine,” which has now become the norm. Although Rockefeller personally championed natural remedies, including homeopathy, publicly he funded allopathic medicine and was a major cog in the machine that brought America’s medical practices up to Europe’s technological standards. But institutions, be they religious, corporate, or national, are not self-containing. They expand. Rockefeller’s philanthropy was de facto colonialism in countries including China and the Philippines, where the offshoots of his Foundation trained indigenous elites to use Western “scientific medicines” and lessen their traditional, natural cures.

THE FOUNDATION AT HOME: “HEALTH IS PROFITABLE”

Former US President Bill Clinton (in office 1993-2001) says: “The academic study of public health owes its origins to Rockefeller, who financed the earliest programs at institutions like Johns Hopkins and Harvard [Universities].”4

Not all 19th century US physicians had formal qualifications. Founded in 1846-47, the American Medical Association lobbied to ensure that physicians were qualified and trained up to particular standards.5 But the formalisation of healthcare training reinforced the race, gender, and class structure in that females, poor people, and non-whites were typically excluded.6 In addition to producing young, white, male doctors from the middle- and upper-classes, the system also battled natural health in favour of the new “scientific medicine.”7 By contrast, the Popular Health Movement was a natural health lobby which, in the 1850s, sought to remove legal protections for reckless physicians.

Senate Moves to Advance $52 Billion Chips Funding Bill

The U.S. Senate voted to advance its Chips and Science Bill on July 26, which is aimed at boosting domestic semiconductor production and improving technological competitiveness with China.

The Senate voted to limit debate on the so-called “Chips and Science Bill,” in a 64-32 vote. It will now head to a vote and is likely be passed by the Senate, and then move to the House for a vote before going to the President’s desk for signature.

The bill is a compromise version of two bills that members of Congress have been working on for more than a year. It will provide funding to spur domestic semiconductor production.

“This morning, the Senate will draw a clear line in the sand that America’s chip crisis, and America’s dwindling commitment to science and innovation will not continue under our watch,” said Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) on the Senate floor prior to the cloture vote.

“It’s a major step for our economic security, our national security, our supply chains, and, in fact, for America’s future.”

It is believed Congress will act swiftly in order to pass the bill before adjourning for its annual August recess.

Semiconductors, which are used in the production of everything from personal computers to hypersonic missiles, have become a key point of anxiety in the past two years as a global supply chain crisis has wreaked havoc on the United States’ ability to obtain the chips.

If passed by the House, the legislation will provide $52 billion for semiconductor manufacturing to help re-shore development of the vital technology. It will also spend billions more to stimulate research and development on associated technologies.

Congress passed the Creating Helpful Incentives to Produce Semiconductors (CHIPS) Act in January 2021. Since then, however, Democrats and Republicans have failed to reach an agreement on how to appropriate funding for the initiative, with Republicans pushing for new corporate tax credits and Democrats pushing for green energy and research funding to be included.

That stalemate led to the creation of two stalled bills, the Republican-backed Innovation and Competition Act (USICA) and the Democrat-backed America COMPETES Act, which have now been combined into the Chips and Science Bill.

America’s VP: “I Am Kamala Harris, My Pronouns are She and Her, and I am a Woman Sitting at the Table Wearing a Blue Suit”

What did we just watch?

Kamala Harris on Tuesday met with disability rights leaders to discuss ‘access to reproductive health care,’ AKA abortion.

Harris kicked off the meeting by announcing her pronouns.

“I am Kamala Harris, my pronouns are she and her, and I am a woman sitting at the table wearing a blue suit,” Kamala Harris said.

Is Kamala Harris a biologist too?

Harris described herself to people tuning in with visual impairments, but why the woke pronoun announcement?

Kamala Harris argued that women with disabilities are 11 times more likely to die before, during and after childbirth.

Then she dropped this word salad:

“The act of the Supreme Court to take away a Constitutional right they didn’t recognize from the people of America will impact a lot of people and differently in some situations and we need to be responsive to these issues and also lift up the voices of all people who will be impacted in the way that they will be impacted…and I will add a couple of points in terms of the direct impact,” Harris said.
