Clinton Foundation Auditor Sanctioned – Numerous Material Issues Including the Clinton Foundation and Its Auditor Ignoring $483 Million Error

Arkansas Sanctions Clinton Foundation’s Auditor in Landmark Case

Guest post by Bob Bishop

The Clinton Foundation is America’s largest unprosecuted racketeering and charity fraud case. Investigations of the Clinton Foundation, shelved by the corrupt and partisan DOJ, FBI, and IRS leadership, demonstrate a two-tier justice system with exemptions for the political elite.

The only remaining pathway for due process was petitioning the Arkansas State Board of Public Accountancy to enforce AICPA professional standards against the Foundation’s former national audit firm BKD, LLP (BKD has since merged with another national firm forming Forvis, LLP).

BKD issued slapdash audits and tax returns (under penalties of perjury) for 13 years. By dismissing AICPA professional standards and IRS compliance, the firm created a veneer of legitimacy for the Clinton Foundation. BKD’s main fiduciary obligation is to serve and protect public interest, not the Clinton Foundation.

I filed a complaint with the Arkansas Board against BKD, LLP. The complaint (59 allegations), relying on public documents, charged BKD with professional misconduct and failure to comply with the following AICPA standards and the IRS Code. The complaint’s primary focus is the Clinton Foundation’s 2011 amended IRS Form 990 tax return dated November 16, 2015, and the underlying 2011 audited financial statements.

The firm filed a condescending and indefensible response dismissing the allegations and smearing me as a “conspiracy theorist.” The reply crossed a bright-line including a veiled threat of AICPA disciplinary action against me. BKD’s Chief Operating Officer Eric Hansen served at the time as the AICPA Chairman.

Rampant Irregularities

The complaint covered substantial irregularities and documented a culture of deceit, with the more flagrant irregularities abstracted below.

Trustee Oversight & Control Failures

The Foundation’s Board of Trustees engaged Simpson Thacher & Bartlett, LLP, to review its “decadal” (Or is it decadent?) governance. Their report was issued in late December 2011. WikiLeaks released the draft document widely covered in media outlets. The governance review found severe organizational and internal control weaknesses jeopardizing the Foundation’s tax-exempt status. Why did BKD ignore the flashing warning signals?

The reported historical construction cost of the Clinton Library is $171.3 million or $1,332 per gross square foot. The Library cost is scandalously high when compared to equivalent high-quality Little Rock commercial buildings. The Heifer International and Arkansas Study Institute construction cost per gross square foot is $198 and $238, respectively, a flashing warning sign of possible construction fraud.

Failure to Audit Clinton Global Initiative

The Clintons have resurrected the disreputable Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) six-year hiatus. Last week it held an annual conference in New York City coinciding with the UN General Assembly. Vampires require a host.

Screen Capture: CGI 2022 website

According to the 1023 Application for Recognition of Exemption Under Section 501(c)(3), BKD advised CGI “in complying with relevant laws, regulations, and standards.” It failed to audit the pay-for-play subsidiary that made up over 20% of the consolidated revenue. Numerous states, including Arkansas, required CGI to be audited.

Arkansas Consent Order

BKD signed the Arkansas State Board of Public Accountancy Consent Order acknowledging that it failed to “exercise due professional care in the performance of professional services,” and that a licensee who performs auditing, review, compilation, management consulting, tax or other professional services shall comply with professional standards as defined in Board Rule 8.2.”

BKD also acknowledged it was first licensed with Arkansas in 2003, meaning it operated unlawfully for more than two years while providing services to the Clinton Foundation.

Kudos to the Arkansas Accountancy State Board for pursuing and disciplining BKD, but the firm’s acknowledgment without severe penalties is insufficient. Ethically, BKD should have pulled its audit opinions.

Tucker Carlson attends funeral of Hells Angels leader

The Fox News host paid tribute to the founder and president of the famous motorcycle club, Sonny Barger

Tucker Carlson has paid his respects to the founder and longtime president of the notorious Hells Angels motorcycle club, Sonny Barger, who passed away this summer aged 83 after a battle with throat cancer.

The prominent Fox News host was among more than 7,000 people who gathered at the Stockton 99 Speedway in California on Saturday to attend a six-hour-long service dedicated to Barger, who had been a counterculture icon since the 1960s.

Speaking to the crowd of leather-clad mourners, Carlson began his speech by admitting that he had never met Barger personally, but had always been a fan of the notorious outlaw biker. Carlson noted, however, that he had only discovered the biker’s personal views when he read the letter Barger released after his passing.

“The letter, if I can summarize it from memory, was: ‘Always stand tall, stay loyal… remain free, and always value honor,’” Carlson recited, telling the crowd that just reading these words made him “emotional.”

“And I thought to myself, if there is a phrase that sums up more perfectly what I want to be, what I aspire to be, and the kind of man I respect, I can’t think of a phrase that sums it up more perfectly than that,” the TV host added, drawing applause from the crowd.

Carlson went on to question why such values were not shared by those who sit in Washington and pointed out that it should be the president of the United States who repeats those words everyday, not just the leader of a notorious motorcycle club.

Barger rose to prominence in the US after he became one of the founding members of the first Oakland chapter of the Hells Angels motorcycle club in 1957. He went on to become the public face of the group, which is currently believed to have up to 3,600 members with chapters spread across the world.

Throughout his life, Barger had numerous run-ins with the law and had been arrested on charges ranging from possession of narcotics to attempted murder, and had served several prison sentences.

While many police and international intelligence agencies, including the US Justice Department and Europol, consider the Hells Angels to be an organized crime syndicate, Barger always maintained that the club only consists of motorcycle enthusiasts and that responsibility for criminal activities lies with individual members and not the club as a whole.

Putin Gives Edward Snowden Russian Citizenship: State Media

Within months after the Russian invasion of Ukraine, some in the US media began to question, "Where is Edward Snowden? Whistleblower Silent Since Russia Invaded Ukraine" - as one April Newsweek headline read. The Ukraine offensive had clearly put the NSA whistleblower in a deeply awkward position, and thus he went relatively silent on Twitter. The Russian government had provided him asylum since he fled there from Hong Kong in June of 2013 - as he was a "wanted" man for exposing illegal mass domestic spying by the NSA and US intelligence.

On Monday, Russian state media is out with an explosive headline and new development regarding Snowden's fate: "Putin signs decree granting Snowden Russian citizenship," according to state-run RIA Novosti. TASS too is reporting that Putin has given Edward Snowden Russian citizenship.

Per the official Russian presidential decree…

"In accordance with paragraph 'a' of Article 89 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, I decide: to accept the following persons in the citizenship of the Russian Federation: Edward Joseph Snowden, born June 21, 1983, in the United States of America."

This is an absolutely huge development and big and consequential Kremlin thumb in the eye to Washington at a moment the two sides are inching closer to direct confrontation and war in Ukraine. The decree is sure to spiral tensions further already at a moment Washington is mulling yet more expanded sanctions.

According to Russia's Sputnik, "Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has also confirmed that Russian citizenship was granted to Snowden at the latter's request."

Green Group Behind Biden’s Radical Green Agenda Has Deep Ties to Communist China

The Democrat Party – Purposefully destroying America one policy decision at a time

The Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) is a major environmental group with deep ties to China and the Communist Party.

Democrats are pushing their agenda in order to move America to dependence on China windmills and solar panels.

Meanwhile, China continues to use oil, gas, and coal to power its economy.

It’s the Democrat Party’s way to destroy America.

A new study finds that the NRDC has found that several of its top officials have worked for the Communist Chinese Party (CCP).

Meanwhile, Socialist Democrats led by economic illiterate Alexandria Ocasio Cortez continue to push the dangerous green policies to destroy the American middle class.

FOX News reported:

The Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), a major U.S. green group that has influenced Biden administration policymaking, has deep ties to the Chinese government.

The NRDC, a non-profit organization based in New York City with total assets exceeding $450 million, has worked on climate issues extensively in China since the mid-1990s and several of its top officials have worked for the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) or government-sponsored institutions.

The NRDC also maintains a close working relationship with President Biden’s administration. The NRDC’s former president, Gina McCarthy, served as Biden’s climate czar up from January 2021 until earlier this month. Current president, Manish Bapna, has attended at least two White House meetings, visitor logs reviewed by Fox News Digital show.

The NRDC regularly communicates with Special Presidential Envoy for Climate John Kerry’s office on policy issues, according to internal State Department emails obtained by the watchdog group Protect the Public’s Trust and shared with Fox News Digital.

On its website, the NRDC highlights its collaboration with a “wide range of Chinese and international partners” to boost green policies and “fortify” environmental regulations in the country.

Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom Signs Law Allowing Illegal Immigrants to Obtain California IDs

Meanwhile in the Democrat hellhole of California…

On Friday, Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom signed a new bill that will make it possible for illegal immigrants to obtain state IDs into law.

The new law, AB 1766 mandates that “by no later than July 1, 2027,” the DMV must “issue a restricted identification card to an eligible applicant who is unable to submit satisfactory proof that their presence in the United States is authorized under federal law if they provide satisfactory proof of identity and California residency, as specified.”

Also, AB 1766 would forbid any government agency or department, law enforcement agency, business company, or another person from obtaining, accessing, utilizing, or disclosing, noncriminal background information stored by the department for the purpose of immigration enforcement.

“That means criminals who are illegally in the country might not be reported; it also means that despite California’s aggressive lockdown policies in the coronavirus pandemic, the state may not be allowed to provide information about illegal aliens to the federal government in future public health crises,” Breitbart reported.

Some of the new legislation bills that aimed toward helping illegal aliens in California, aside from AB 1766, are AB 1232, AB 2068, and AB 2193.

More from Patch:

AB 1232 will give immigrant students improved access to in-state tuition at public colleges and universities, as well as ESL courses at community colleges.

Occupational safety and health are included in AB 2068, meaning that undocumented people will have access to community health workers and promoters who can facilitate and provide culturally and linguistically responsive care.

AB 2193 deals with providing low-income Californians eligibility for legal assistance in civil matters that affect basic human needs, regardless of a persons immigration status.

“California is expanding opportunity for everyone, regardless of immigration status… We’re a state of refuge – a majority-minority state, where 27 percent of us are immigrants,” Newsom said after signing the new law. “That’s why I’m proud to announce the signing of today’s bills to further support our immigrant community, which makes our state stronger every single day.”

Almost 3 million people in California are living in the shadows without proper documentation in 2019, according to the census from the Migration Policy Institute. It is even worst right now as a result of of Biden’s open border policy.

Currently, illegal immigrants are allowed to obtain an AB60 driver’s license in California.

Laws allowing undocumented immigrants to get driver’s licenses have been passed in 17 states and District of Columbia. States included in this group are: California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Maryland, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, and Washington.

Pelosi Unilaterally Extends Unconstitutional Proxy Voting Scheme AGAIN Through November Despite Biden Declaring Pandemic is Over

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Friday unilaterally extended her unconstitutional proxy voting scheme again due to COVID-19, despite Biden’s declaration that the pandemic is over.

This is pure lawlessness and unprecedented corruption.

In a letter addressed to the members of the House of Representatives, Pelosi cited COVID and said that a “public health emergency is in effect” in her announcement extending proxy voting.

It will be extended until November 10, 2022.

“In light of the attached notification by the Sergeant-at-Arms, in consultation with the Office of Attending Physician, that a public health emergency is in effect due to a novel coronavirus, I am hereby extending the “covered period” designated on January 4, 2021, pursuant to section 3(s) of House Resolution 8, until November 10, 2022,” Pelosi said in a statement.

Pelosi first began the scheme on May 27, 2020.

Pelosi unilaterally extended her proxy voting scheme several times over the last couple of years. The proxy scheme was supposed to end today, September 26th.

Pelosi’s decision to extend proxy voting comes after President Joe Biden said that the COVID pandemic was over.

Joe Biden declared the COVID pandemic is over in a sit-down interview with “60 Minutes” that aired last week.

This was Joe Biden’s first interview with an American outlet in more than 7 months.

“The pandemic is over. We still have a problem with Covid. We’re still doing a lot of work on it. It’s – but the pandemic is over,” Biden said to Scott Pelley.

WI Republican Representative Mike Gallagher issued a statement Friday condemning the letter.

“Earlier this week, President Biden claimed that the pandemic was over. It seems everyone but Speaker Pelosi agrees. By extending proxy voting, Speaker Pelosi continues to allow members to forgo the most important component of their job – voting – and lie to their constituents in the process. The day when Republicans take back the House and eliminate this unconstitutional and unethical practice can’t come soon enough.”

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) also reacted to Pelosi’s decision to extend proxy voting in an op-ed for the New York Post.

“The Commitment to America champions policies to restore voters’ confidence in Congress, starting with ending Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s proxy-voting abuse of power that allowed 90% of House Democrats to get paid without needing to show up for work.”

Last year, GOP Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy asked the US Supreme Court to overturn Speaker Pelosi’s House proxy voting.

“Although the Constitution allows Congress to write its own rules, those rules cannot violate the Constitution itself, including the requirement to actually assemble in person. Since its adoption 14 months ago, proxy voting has shattered 231 years of legislative precedent and shielded the majority from substantive policy debates and questions, effectively silencing the voices of millions of Americans,” McCarthy wrote to the Supreme Court justices.

The US Supreme Court in January declined to hear GOP Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy’s challenge to Speaker Pelosi’s proxy voting.

Congressman Greg Pence of Indiana’s Sixth Congressional District also demanded an end to this unconstitutional proxy voting.

Tesla's German Gigafactory Catches Fire, Prompting Local Protestors To Call For Production Shut Down

A major fire appears to have broken out at Tesla's Berlin recycling plant, prompting a local group of environmentalists who have been fighting the company to call for Tesla to stop production.

Overnight electrek reported that Tesla's on-site fire brigade called in help from the local fire department for an incident that took place at Gigafactory Berlin in the municipality of Grünheide.

Local news reported that a "a large pile of cardboard and wood caught on fire at the recycling facility located at the factory". The report said that 800 cubic meters of paper, cardboard and wood caught fire.

The blaze took 50 firefighters "hours" to get under control. 12 firefighters from Tesla's own brigade assisted with the fire. No injuries were reported and the fire did not spread to elsewhere on the facility.

But one blaze set off another: environmentalists, who have been fighting Tesla every step of the way on the German plant, are now calling for a stop in production. A group called the citizens’ initiative Grünheide (BI) is calling for an "immediate stop" to production, electrek writes.

A representative from the group commented: "Our worst fears have come true. We demand a production stop until the causes and circumstances have been clarified and all safety-related measures in the water protection area have been implemented."

Tesla has not issued an official comment as of yet.

Spanish government official reportedly claims 'children … can love or have sexual relations with whomever they want'

A member of the Spanish government recently caught the attention of the international community after she made controversial statements regarding children and sexual consent.

Irene Montero, the 34-year-old minister of equality in Spain, recently said in Spanish at a recent legislative meeting: "All girls, boys, childrenx in this country have the right to know their own body, to know that no adult can touch their body if they don't want to and that is a form of violence, they have the right to know that they can love or have sexual relations with whoever they want, based on consent."

A video of her comments went viral on social media late last week.

It is unclear when she actually made the statement.

The age of sexual consent in Spain is 16, and Montero later clarified that, with her statements, she was merely advocating for the right of children to receive comprehensive sex education "which allows them to have lives free of violence and that allows them in the future to freely live their sexuality."

However, her critics, whom she called members of "the extreme right," have argued that her comments have endangered children, and many have now called for her resignation as a result.

US Military Has a Mass Monitoring Tool that can Spy on 93% of ALL Internet Traffic, Including Email, Browser Data

The tool reportedly covers 93% of the world's internet traffic and can easily defeat VPNs.

Senator Ron Wyden (D-OR) has revealed that the US Naval Investigative Service (NCIS) has a contract for “Augury” – a mass monitoring tool that reportedly covers 93% of the world’s internet traffic and provides access to petabytes of current and historical data.

Wyden made the revelation in a recent letter that urged officials at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Department of Defense (DOD), and Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate their department’s “warrantless purchase and use of records revealing the websites Americans have accessed online.”

The Senator wrote that public contracting records show that NCIS has a contract for Augury and that these records show that Augury provides access to network data “from over 550 collection points worldwide.” Wyden added that these records show Augury “is updated with at least 100 billion new records each day” and “confirm that Augury provides access to email data…and data about web browser activity.”

Not only does Wyden’s letter highlight this Augury contract but it also reveals that Wyden’s department was recently contacted by a whistleblower who had filed formal complaints “regarding the warrantless purchase and use of netflow data by the Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS).” This whistleblower told Wyden’s department that NCIS is “purchasing access to data, which includes netflow records and some ‘communications content” from Team Cymru – a data broker that offers access to Augury.

Wyden’s letter also notes that other government agencies, including US Cyber Command, the Army, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and the US Secret Service, have contracts with Argonne Ridge Group – an affiliate of Team Cymru that has previously managed contracts with public agencies.

Motherboard, which reviewed several of the contracts referenced in Wyden’s letter, added that while these contracts don’t mention Augury, one of the FBI contracts does say “it will secure funding approval to buy net flow from one commercial vendor and integrating it into existing sources of net flow available to cyber intelligence analysts to analyze as a proof of concept.”

We obtained a copy of Senator Wyden’s letter for you here.

Online promotional materials for Augury and online procurement records that were reviewed by Motherboard suggest that the platform provides access to access to a wide range of online data insights.

Cosive, a security company that claims its team are “experts at the setup and optimisation of Team Cymru Augury at organisations throughout Australia and New Zealand,” states that Augury gives “visibility into 93% of the internet traffic” and claims that Augury provides direct access to more than 50 different categories of data insights which include:

Gates Foundation Funds Clinton Initiative to Force China Reliance On Developing World.

The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation is funding a Clinton Health Access Initiative aimed at making developing countries reliant on China for healthcare and medical products, The National Pulse can reveal.

The Microsoft co-founder’s foundation authorized a $560,021 grant to the Clinton Health Access Initiative in September, which will run for 18 months.

The Clinton Health Access Initiative was originally a part of the controversial Clinton Foundation started by former President Bill Clinton but spun off into a separate organization in 2010 though Chelsea Clinton – the daughter of the former president and his wife Hillary – joined the initiative’s board in 2011.

The purpose of the grant is “to leverage manufacturing capabilities in China to increase supply security and enhance the supply of key health commodities in low- and middle-income countries.”

While the foundation omitted any further details on how the objective would be accomplished, the grant will likely boost China’s manufacturing capabilities and make countries reliant on the communist nation for “key” healthcare items.

The grant comes amidst China rolling out its controversial “Belt and Road” initiative, a key component of the regime’s efforts to expand its control globally through predatory infrastructure loans.

As the U.S. State Department has warned, Beijing “uses the Belt and Road Initiative and other undertakings to expand foreign markets for Chinese companies and as a means of drawing nations, particularly their political and economic elites, into Beijing’s geopolitical orbit.”

China has been accused of using similar tactics amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, engaging in “healthcare diplomacy” to broaden its influence over developing countries. Products manufactured in the country also often have poor efficacy and are tainted with toxic chemicals.

The Gates Foundation grant appears to aid the Chinese Communist Party’s ambitions to intertwine itself within the healthcare infrastructure of countries across the world.

The unearthed grant follows Bill Gates’s long history of working with the Chinese Communist Party on business and philanthropic ventures. His foundation appears to demonstrate a similar affinity for the Communist regime, sending sizable grants to additional Chinese entities, including those with ties to the lab believed to be the birthplace of COVID-19.

Swastika-Wearing Gunman Kills 15 in Russian School Shooting

MOSCOW—A gunman with a swastika on his teeshirt killed 15 people, including 11 children, and wounded 24 at a school in Russia on Monday before committing suicide, investigators said.

The attacker, a man in his early thirties who was named by authorities as Artem Kazantsev, killed two security guards and then opened fire on students and teachers at School Number 88 in Izhevsk, where he had once been a pupil.

Russia’s Investigative Committee, which handles major crimes, said it was looking into the perpetrator’s suspected neo-Nazi links.

“Currently investigators … are conducting a search of his residence and studying the personality of the attacker, his views and surrounding milieu,” the committee said in a statement. “Checks are being made into his adherence to neo-fascist views and Nazi ideology.”

Investigators released a video showing the man’s body lying in a classroom with overturned furniture and papers strewn on the bloodstained floor. He was dressed all in black, with a red swastika in a circle drawn on his teeshirt.

The Investigative Committee said that of the 24 people wounded, all but two were children. Regional governor Alexander Brechalov said surgeons had carried out a number of operations.

He said the attacker had been registered with a “psycho-neurological” treatment facility. Investigators said the man was armed with two pistols and a large supply of ammunition.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said President Vladimir Putin “deeply mourns” the deaths. He described the incident as “a terrorist act by a person who apparently belongs to a neo-fascist organization or group.”

He said doctors, psychologists and neurosurgeons had been sent on Putin’s orders to the location of the shooting in Izhevsk, about 970 kilometers (600 miles) east of Moscow.

Russia has seen several school shootings in recent years.

In May 2021, a teenage gunman killed seven children and two adults in the city of Kazan. In September last year, a student armed with a hunting rifle shot dead at least six people at a university in the Urals city of Perm.

In April 2022, an armed man killed two children and a teacher at a kindergarten in the central Ulyanovsk region before committing suicide.

In 2018, an 18-year-old student killed 20 people, mostly fellow pupils, in a mass shooting at a college in Russian-occupied Crimea, which Moscow seized from Ukraine in 2014.

EU will be ‘Vigilant’ Towards Any Threat to Abortion After Italy Election, French PM Threatens

France’s Prime Minister has threatened that the EU will be “vigilant” towards any threat to its pro-abortion regime after Italy’s historic general election.

The European Union will be “vigilant” of any threats to “human rights”, especially in regards to its pro-abortion regime, after the Italian public decided to hand the country’s right-wing a sizable victory during the country’s general election on Sunday.

While the exact results of the snap election remain unknown, it is expected from exit polls that a coalition of three conservative and nationalist parties will end up spearheading a new Italian government, with Fratelli D’Italia (Brothers of Italy) head Giorgia Meloni expected to become the country’s first woman Prime Minister.

European bigwigs have responded with hostility to the projected election result, with Commission President Ursula von der Leyen threatening that the bloc has certain “tools” it could use to attack Italy should it deviate from the Brussels agenda.

Such threats have now been echoed by France’s Prime Minister, Elisabeth Borne, who told broadcaster BFMTV that the EU would be watching closely to see if any “human rights” were being put under threat following Sunday’s vote.

Though saying that she would not comment on “the democratic choice of the Italian people”, she emphasised that in the area of abortion, in particular, the powers that be in Europe would be extremely “vigilant”.

“In Europe, we have a set of values ​​and, of course, we will be mindful that these values ​​are respected by everyone when it comes to human rights and the right to abortion,” the French bigwig is reported as saying.

Meloni, while a Catholic, has promised that she would not crack down on abortion in the country, though has reportedly expressed the desire to see alternatives offered to women wherever possible.

Borne’s comments echo those made by Ursula von der Leyen, who threatened last week that Brussels could crack down on any right-wing government in Italy should it feels its actions run contrary to the agenda of her transnational bloc.

“My approach is that whatever democratic government is willing to work with us, we’re working together,” von der Leyen said.

“If things go in a difficult direction, I’ve spoken about Hungary and Poland, we have tools,” she went on to threaten.

Von der Leyen’s evocation of Hungary and Poland appears to be in reference to the legal measures Brussels has been taking against both countries, with the bloc making attempts to pull funding from both nations after their governments took actions perceived as being against the EU’s values.

The threat was slammed by Lega (The League) head Matteo Salvini — whose party is expected to be a coalition partner in the Meloni government — with the politician saying that the EU leader should stick to worrying about energy bills.

“These are disgusting words, the threatening tone is unacceptable,” he said.

“Our parliamentary group will present a motion of censure,” he continued, emphasising that it was up to the Italian public to vote, and not “the Brussels bureaucrats”.

New UK PM to Import Even More Migrants Despite Inter-Ethnic Violence

Prime Minister Liz Truss is set to further accelerate mass immigration in the name of GDP growth, despite visas already being issued at record levels and communal violence between Muslims and Hindus in English cities.

Truss has an unusual political background, having first been a leftist Liberal Democrat, then an anti-Brexit minister in the Conservative Party government of David Cameron, and finally the supposedly “right-wing” candidate favoured by Brexiteer MPs to replace Boris Johnson as Conservative leader.

Her decision to embrace even more immigration, opposed by most Conservative voters, is nothing new, however, with party grandee George Osborne having revealed after the Brexit referendum that senior Tories never intended to keep election promises — fully dropped by open-borders Boris in 2019 — to reduce immigration “from the hundreds of thousands to the tens of thousands”.

The Times reports that the Truss’s Chancellor of the Exchequer, Kwasi Kwarteng, appears to share her belief in Treasury orthodoxy that “migration is good for growth.”

The new home secretary Suella Braverman is reportedly gearing up for a fight with Truss over border control, but in a battle between Prime Minister and treasury against home secretary — assuming this challenge isn’t just for show — it seems unlikely that Braverman is likely to prevail.

“Immigration has added [seven] million people to the population in 20 years. So why are we all not richer?” complained Migration Watch, Britain’s leading migration-sceptic think tank, of Truss’s plan.

“It’s all very well to have a bigger cake driven by cheap labour but what’s the point if we each end up with a smaller slice…?”

Speaking on the subject at more length on TalkTV, the chairman of Migration Watch, Alp Mehment, said the move to further boost mass immigration was “shocking coming from a Conservative Government” — although, as Migration Watch has itself documented, the Conservatives have been increasing immigration for well over a decade by now.

Brexit leader Nigel Farage has stressed that “immigration running legally and illegally” at current levels has an impact beyond the economic, undermining social cohesion.

“I’ll be condemned for saying this… but [with mass immigration] you break down our communities, you break down the civilised order that we’ve been used to; you have a recipe for lawlessness, a recipe for an unhappy society,” he warned.

“There is no prospect, no hope of community cohesion, of integration actually going on.”

Some evidence of this has been seen in Leicester and other urban centres in the Midlands over recent weeks, with Muslims chanting “Allahu Akbar!” and Hindus chanting “Jai Shri Ram!” clashing in English streets over issues on the Indian sub-continent.

Russia Says It’s Not Threatening Anyone With Nukes

Russia's deputy FM says a direct conflict with the US and NATO is not in Moscow's interest

On Friday, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said that Russia wasn’t threatening anyone with nuclear weapons and said Moscow doesn’t want a direct conflict with the US and NATO.

“We are not threatening anyone with nuclear weapons,” Ryabkov said. “The criteria for their use are outlined in Russia’s military doctrine.”

Russia’s doctrine is that it could use nuclear weapons if it is facing an “existential threat,” and Russian officials have made clear throughout the current war in Ukraine that this is still the policy.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said last week that Moscow could use nuclear weapons to defend its “territorial integrity.” While his comments were a more explicit warning, it still falls in line with the doctrine.

But Russian territory is set to expand into Ukraine after referendums that are being held in the Donbas, Kherson, and Zaporizhzhia. Ukraine is planning to launch more counter-offensives against these territories using weapons and intelligence provided by the US and other NATO countries.

Ryabkov said that it’s not in Russia’s interest to be in a direct conflict with the US and NATO. “A face-off with the United States and NATO, which is fraught with an open armed conflict, is not in our interests,” he said.

“We hope that the Biden administration understands the risks of uncontrolled escalation of the conflict in Ukraine, given the repeated statements by their officials that they don’t plan to send American servicemen to Ukraine,” Ryabkov added.

President Biden has repeatedly stated that he won’t send US troops into Ukraine to fight Russia, although there is a CIA presence on the ground, according to a report from The New York Times that was published in June. The report also said special operations forces from Britain, France, Canada, and Lithuania are on the ground in Ukraine.

Fourteen people have been indicted for the 2020 killing of a top nuclear scientist in an attack Tehran has blamed on Israel, an Iranian state news agency reports.

According to the report, Tehran's Chief Prosecutor, Ali Salehi, announced that "14 people were indicted" in the case, aimed at disrupting Iran's security.

Iran claims that the bombing and shooting attack that killed Fakhrizadeh was carried out by a remote-controlled machine gun.

In 2018, former Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, charged that Fakhrizadeh had led Iran's efforts to build an atomic bomb, a claim Iran has always vehemently denied.

Tunisia: Mayor arrested over the suicide of a street vendor

The Head of the Tunisian Federation of Municipalities, Adnan Bouassida, said that the authorities arrested the Mayor of Mornag, Omar Al-Herbawi, at midnight on Saturday/Sunday, over the suicide of a street vendor in the city of Mornag, south of the capital.

The suicide of this young man has a special impact on Tunisians, where the suicide of a young street vendor in 2010 sparked popular protests that, on January 14, 2011, overthrew former President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali.

In statements to Anadolu Agency, Bouassida denied any responsibility by the Mayor of Mornag for the suicide of the street vendor.

He explained that "any mayor who implements regulatory measures (regulating markets) is dismissed since this legitimises chaos," as he said.

He called for "the release of Al-Herbawi and revealing the truth to the people."

He added that the Ministry of Interior said, in a statement on Saturday that "the suicide occurred as a result of severe family disputes the young man has been living through … but the Mayor of Mornag was arrested without explaining the reasons."

Bouassida considered that "what happened is an indication that the mayors have to stop their activities … and the chaotic allocation (setting street vendors' places) is the responsibility of the State."

He added: "The Municipality suggested to the street vendor to stand in the organised market and to choose any place, but he refused and stood on the public road."

He went on: "On Thursday, the municipal police took his weighing machine, and he met the Mayor, who told him the same thing, but the young man refused and returned to stand on Saturday."

On Saturday, the Ministry of Interior said that "contrary to what was circulated on social media pages about the circumstances and causes that led to the suicide of the concerned young man, preliminary investigations based on the hearings of the witnesses showed that the deceased was experiencing severe family disputes."

"As for the chaotic standing, its circumstances date back to Thursday, 22 September, 2022, when the dead young man was exploiting a chaotic standing place outside the municipal market in Mornag," the Ministry added.

The Ministry continued: "Within the framework of implementing a municipal decision to prevent random standing on both sides of Hassan Hosni Abdel Wahab Street, and the decision No 7 issued by the Mayor on 21 September, 2022, which stipulates the removal of a chaotic standing point without a license belonging to the deceased in the relevant place, he was warned and the police satisfied to confiscate his electronic weighing machine and recommending him to settle his status with the relevant municipal department in the place."

This incident comes at a time when Tunisia is suffering from an economic crisis that has been exacerbated due to the repercussions of the Covid-19 pandemic, and the ongoing Russian war in Ukraine since 24 February.

Former US Congressman Ron Paul mocks US neocon ties to Iran riots 'leader'

Former US Congressman Ron Paul has mocked the claim that a US-government-hired Iranian opposition figure is “leading” what Washington is projecting as a “freedom” movement in Iran amid deadly riots over the death of a young woman.

In a Twitter post on Monday, Paul pointed to the close ties between Masih Alinejad – a commentator for Washington’s official Persian language propaganda network Voice of America (VOA) – and the ultra-rightwing neoconservative elements (neocons) in US politics and ridiculed the notion as “totally legit.”

“Doesn’t it strike anyone as strange that the “leader” of this “freedom” movement in Iran is a US government employee and bosom buddy of the neocons? But hey, sure, it’s totally legit…,” the ex-lawmaker wrote, posting a photo of Alinejad with former hawkish US Secretary of State and CIA Director, Mike Pompeo.

Biden Corruption Update, Another Hunter Cover-Up, Vaccine-China Ties EXPOSED!

Bill Gates brags about ordering Trump not to investigate covid vaccine dangers – TWICE

On not one but two separate occasions, billionaire eugenicist Bill Gates ordered then-President Donald Trump not to investigate the potential dangers associated with mRNA (messenger RNA) covid “vaccines.”

The Microsoft co-founder turned “philanthropist” bragged – watch below – that his Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation heavily lobbied Trump against his proposed vaccine safety research project.

“In both of those two meetings [with Donald Trump], he asked me if vaccines weren’t a bad thing, because he was considering a commission to look into ill-effects of vaccines … And I said, ‘No … that would be a bad thing, don’t do that,'” Gates said about his interactions with Trump.

Northeastern U. Prof Says White People Responsible for ‘Religious Appropriation’

“…whiteness is behind ‘every case of borrowing [she] looked at and white supremacy in some form was a reason why the borrowing was harmful.'”

Man, white people suck. Guess I’ll have to tell my rheumatologist I have to stop doing yoga even though it helps with my RA.

Do you know what’s funny? The professor is a yoga teacher.

From The College Fix:

A professor at Northeastern University says that, like with cultural appropriation, “whiteness” also is behind religious appropriation.

According to Liz Bucar, whiteness becomes apparent when “practices associated with bodies of color are adopted by white agents, when histories of racism are erased, and when forms of appropriation position white Americans as the proper interpreters of the ‘true’ meaning of a practice.”

Bucar (pictured) told Religion & Politics that progressives aren’t as in tune with appropriation of a religious nature as they are with that pertaining to culture.

“Religious combining is not only common, but also encouraged [as] a method to get the spiritual benefits of religions without losing individual autonomy,” Bucar said.

In her book “Stealing My Religion,” Bucar argued whiteness is behind “every case of borrowing [she] looked at and white supremacy in some form was a reason why the borrowing was harmful.”

The book looks at three cases in particular: Showing “solidarity” with a religion (like wearing a hijab), “learning about a religious rite of passage through firsthand experience,” and therapy based on a religion, like yoga.

—

When it comes to yoga, Bucar argued in order for it to become “mainstream” it had to be “scrubbed of its devotional meanings and presented in spaces that are comfortable for white people”:

For example, when my mom discovered yoga in the early 1970s it wasn’t from an Indian guru, but Lilias Folan, a white woman in a leotard whose popular PBS show introduced yoga to a generation of white American women. Folan’s postures and simple meditation techniques seemed slightly exotic at the time, which was part of their appeal, but they were also packaged in way that was accessible and comfortable for my white Protestant mother.

Rumya Putcha, a South Asian scholar of performance studies, shares a powerful story on her research blog, Namaste Nation, that illustrates the role of yoga in creating public white spaces. When Putcha lived in Texas, she was a member of a local yoga studio. Another member who was a white woman used a pun, “Namastay together,” which offended Putcha as a desi woman. But when she voiced her concerns, the white member tattled to the studio owner, and Putcha was asked to leave the studio. This illustrates what can happen when white privilege is triggered.

Pfizer asks FDA for authorization of new booster for children, ages 5-11

The booster is already available to those who are 12 years old and up.

Pfizer announced Monday that it submitted an application to the Food and Drug Administration for the authorization of its bivalent COVID-19 booster shot for children ages 5 to 11.

The company says it has requested the federal agency authorize a 10-microgram dose of its omicron-specific booster for those ages. The bivalent booster shot is currently authorized for those 12 and older. This dosage is one-third of the 30 microgram dose for adults that was authorized in August, The Hill reported.

Pfizer is requesting authorization base off of "safety and immunogenicity data" and "non-clinical" and "pre-clinical" data. The FDA didn't wait for the completion of full human clinical trials before authorizing the bivalent boosters, basing its authorization only on animal data.

In the company's announcement, Pfizer said it has begun a Phase 1/2/3 to determine the "safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity" of varying doses of its omicron booster shot. Sub-studies are examining using the vaccine in children as young as 6 months old, including those who haven’t received the original COVID vaccine.

Pfizer’s authorization request comes days after Moderna also asked the FDA to authorize its updated dose for administration to children as young as six years of age. Currently, Moderna’s booster shots are only authorized for adults.

Greenwald: 'Democratic politics is about criminalizing opposition'

"Dissenting ideas are 'disinformation' and must be censored by Big Tech," Greenwald says.

Journalist Glenn Greenwald is criticized the Democratic Party, calling members authoritarians trying to criminalize their opposition.

After The Prospect managing editor Ryan Cooper complained about Florida GOP Rep. Matt Gaetz not being indicted with in a sex-trafficking probe, Greenwald, co-founder of The Intercept, responded with his criticism.

"Chickens*** club," Cooper tweeted.

Greenwald replied in a retweet: "This is a perfect illustration of how authoritarian so many Democrats are.

"This Democrat doesn't know or care why career DOJ prosecutors decided the evidence was insufficient to prosecute Matt Gaetz. What he knows is that Gaetz supports Trump and thus wants him imprisoned:

"I can't stress this enough: at its core, Democratic politics is about criminalizing opposition to their party and ideology. Dissenting ideas are 'disinformation' and must be censored by Big Tech. Trump voters are inherently criminal ('insurrectionists') and should be imprisoned."

He also wrote that October 2021 he and others produced a video to assemble the "mountain of polling data and other quantifiable evidence demonstrating how Democratic Party loyalists and liberal activists are now classic authoritarians."

Greenwald is now an independent journalist following his departure from The Intercept.

He left the publication after he wrote an article about the switch in COVID-19 messaging during the George Floyd protests in summer 2020. The Intercept then planned on having another article posted the same day "to argue racism, not COVID, was the greatest health crisis, so everyone should go protest," Greenwald explained.

After he left, Greenwald said The Intercept also censored his articles about Hunter Biden, President Joe Biden, and the president's past dealings with China and Ukraine, according to The Daily Wire.

Spanish Government Refuses to Disclose Vaccine Contracts Despite Court Ruling

On 28 July 2022, the Administrative Chamber of the High Court of Justice of the Balearic Islands granted a request by the Asociación Liberum and ordered the Spanish Ministry of Health and the pharmaceutical agency AEMPS to disclose the vaccine contracts with the pharmaceutical companies Pfizer/BioNTech, Moderna, AstraZeneca and Janssen.

Asociación Liberum, a national human rights association, had requested this evidence as part of its lawsuit against the Covid passport, but both the Ministry of Health and the drug agency have refused to comply with this court order by the deadline set. Asociación Liberum announced this on 6 September.

The government’s justification for the contracts were confidential because they were drawn up by a coordination committee and were part of the “pre-contractual agreements concluded by the European Commission” with the pharmaceutical companies. Moreover, the publication of the data could harm the vaccine market.

In an interview, Ascociación Liberum spokesperson Luis Maria Pardo said: “Can you imagine the Guardia Civil entering the Ministry of Health to seize these documents?”

Because this is exactly what has to happen now, he said, since the Supreme Court’s decision is legally binding. Added to this is the fact that the government had not appealed against this order. The Ministry of Health and the AEMPS are obliged to hand over the original documents to the judiciary.

There was no discussion about this, Pardo stressed. That is why his organisation has again demanded that the Supreme Court of the Balearic Islands implement the ruling. The lawyer hopes that this request will be granted as soon as possible.

In addition, Pardo pointed out that those responsible in the Ministry of Health and the Medicines Agency could be prosecuted “for disregarding the court’s decision”. In that case, the state security forces would indeed have to be deployed – and the Guardia Civil would have to storm the Ministry of Health to seize the documents.

Canada Removes All COVID Border Requirements for All Travelers Including Proof of Vaccination and Suspends Plane and Train Mask Requirements

Canada has lifted all COVID-related border requirements, including proof of vaccination, undergoing quarantine or isolation, and airline and train mask mandate for all travelers entering Canada starting October 1, 2022.

The Canadian Minister of Health, Jean-Yves Duclos, made the announcement on Monday.

“We are announcing that the government of Canada will not renew the order in council that expires on September 30th and will therefore remove all Covid 19 border requirements for all travelers entering Canada. This includes the removal of all federal testing, quarantine and isolation requirements, as well as the mandatory submission of health information in ArriveCAN,” said Duclos during the press conference.

Effective October 1, 2022, all travelers, regardless of citizenship, will no longer have to:

submit public health information through the ArriveCAN app or website;

provide proof of vaccination;

undergo pre- or on-arrival testing;

carry out COVID-19-related quarantine or isolation;

monitor and report if they develop signs or symptoms of COVID-19 upon arriving in Canada.

Transport Canada is also removing existing travel requirements. As of October 1, 2022, travelers will no longer be required to:

undergo health checks for travel on air and rail; or

wear masks on planes and trains.

“Cruise measures are also being lifted, and travelers will no longer be required to have pre-board tests, be vaccinated, or use ArriveCAN. A set of guidelines will remain to protect passengers and crew, which will align with the approach used in the United States,” according to the news release.

Jean-Yves Duclos said in a tweet that the removal of border measures was due to Canada’s high vaccination rate and other factors.

Joe Biden While Hosting Atlanta Braves at White House: “Everybody Under 15, Come Here, Come on Honey”

Joe Biden on Monday welcomed the Atlanta Braves to the White House to celebrate the team’s 2021 World Series victory.

The team gave Joe Biden a Braves jersey.

Of course Joe Biden talked about himself and cracked stupid jokes.

“I was telling the guys back in the other side of the building that I married a Philly girl and she’s smarter than I am and she’s a hell of a lot better looking, and like every Philly fan she’s convinced she knows more about everything in sports than anybody else,” Biden said. “And these guys beat the Phillies.”

Biden took a photo with the entire team and invited the young children to stand next to him.

Of course.

“Everybody under 15, come here, come on honey,” creepy Biden said.

Russia Declares Japanese Diplomat Persona Non Grata Over Espionage Attempt

According to the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB), the Japanese consul was caught in Vladivostok when he tried to obtain restricted information.

"The Federal Security Service in the Primorsky Krai stopped the espionage action of the consul of the Consulate General of Japan in Vladivostok, Motoka Tatsunori. A Japanese diplomat was detained red-handed while receiving restricted information for a monetary reward about topical aspects of Russia's cooperation with one of the countries of the Asia-Pacific region, the impact of the sanctions policy of the West on the economic situation in Primorsky Krai," the FSB said.

Authorities published a video showing him during the act, in which he can be seen at a restaurant with a Russian citizen. He later admitted that he understood it was a transgression.

Moscow voiced protest to Tokyo and the diplomat was declared a persona non grata. He was ordered to leave the country in 48 hours.

"On September 26, the Minister-Counselor of the Japanese Embassy in Moscow was summoned to the Russian Foreign Ministry, and was informed that for activities incompatible with the status of a consular official and detrimental to Russia's security interests, the consul of the Japanese Consulate General in Vladivostok had been declared persona non grata and must leave the Russian Federation within 48 hours," the ministry said in a statement.

A strong protest was expressed to the Japanese side in connection with the actions of the employee of the Consulate General and a note of the corresponding content was handed over to him, the ministry added.

Florida National Guard General: We Will Be Activating Unvaccinated Service Members in Response to Hurricane Ian

Florida National Guard General James Eifert on Monday said the vaccine mandate does not impact his ability to activate unvaccinated service members to help with Hurricane Ian response efforts.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis declared a state of emergency on Sunday.

“This storm has the potential to strengthen into a major hurricane and we encourage all Floridians to make their preparations,” DeSantis said in a statement. “We are coordinating with all state and local government partners to track potential impacts of this storm.”

“The vaccine mandate does not impact our ability to bring people in on state active duty… We will be activating all of those people [who are unvaccinated].” Eifert said.
