Alameda wallets become active days after SBF bail, community mulls foul play

 

The recent movement of funds from Alameda wallets just days after Sam Bankman Fried was released on bail raised many eyebrows about the timing.

 

The crypto wallets associated with now-bankrupt trading firm Alameda Research, the sister company of FTX, were seen transferring out funds just days after the former CEO Sam Bankman Fried was released on a $250 million bond.

 

The transfer of funds from Alameda wallets raised community curiosity, but more than that, the way in which these funds were transferred grabbed the community’s attention. The Alameda wallet was found to be swapping bits of ERC-20s for Ether

, and then the ETH and USDT were funneled through instant exchangers and mixers.

 

For example, a wallet address that starts with 0x64e9 received over 600 ETH from wallets that belong to Alameda, part of it was swapped to USDT while the other part of the transaction was sent to ChangeNow.

 

On-chain analyst ZachXBT noted that the Alameda wallet was eventually swapping the funds for Bitcoin

using decentralized exchanges such as FixedFloat and ChangeNow. These platforms are often used by hackers and exploiters to hide their transaction routes.

 

he never-ending FTX saga sees a new twist every day, and the latest transfer of funds to scoop out whatever is left in those crypto wallets is worrying for the community.

 

Many speculated that the pattern in which these funds are being swapped looks like an exploiter, but given Bankman-Fried’s known criminal past now, many speculated it could be an insider job to take out whatever is left in those wallets.

Ukrainian MP fakes ‘victim’ of Russian strike

 

Lesia Vasilenko posted a photo of a boy from a 2013 book cover

 

A Ukrainian lawmaker has posted a photo of a sad-looking, dirt-covered boy, claiming that he is an eight-year-old named Mark, who “just survived” a Russian artillery strike. However, the claim didn’t hold water, since the same image had been used on a book cover in 2013, as people swiftly pointed out.

 

The false claim came from Lesia Vasilenko, a Ukrainian MP from the relatively small Golos (Voice) Party, who has a background in law and human rights campaigning. She shared the photo and the purported story of “Marc, 8 yo” with her 330,000 followers on her English-language Twitter feed on Tuesday.

 

The photo is nowhere close to being new and does not appear to have any relation to Ukraine. The 2013 Spanish-language edition of the book “The Misremembered Man” by Irish novelist Christina McKenna featured the very same picture on the cover, skeptics pointed out. At the time of the writing, the tweet remained on the platform, though Twitter added a notice about its questionable veracity.

 

The Ukrainian MP, who states that she studied at University College London, is regularly invited by leading Western media, such as France’s BFM TV or the BBC, to comment on Ukrainian affairs.

 

The latest UN casualty report for Ukraine on Tuesday said that its mission had recorded 429 deaths of children since hostilities with Russia started in late February. A watchdog operating in Russia’s Donetsk and Lugansk people's republics reported earlier this month that 154 minors had been killed by strikes it attributed to Ukrainian troops during roughly the same timeframe. The UN considers Donbass as part of Ukraine and counts civilian deaths taking place there as Ukrainian.

 

Between 2014, when Kiev deployed troops against the rebellious republics in Donbass, in the wake of an armed coup in the Ukrainian capital, and the beginning of Russia’s operation this year, some 150 children were killed in the region, according to UN estimates.

Lavrov Says Pentagon Threatening To Assassinate Putin

 

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov on Tuesday lashed out at what he described as threats coming out of the US to assassinate President Vladimir Putin, apparently in response to a slew of anonymously sourced reports.

 

"There are some 'anonymous officials' from the Pentagon who have actually enunciated threats to deliver a 'decapitating strike' on the Kremlin, which is in fact an assassination threat against the Russian president," Lavrov said, according to TASS.

 

"If someone really has such ideas, then this someone should think long and hard about the possible consequences of such plans," the top Russian diplomat warned.

 

The condemnation also came less than a week after Senator Lindsey Graham called for someone to "take out" the Russian president for the war in Ukraine to end.

 

But it appears Lavrov specifically had in mind a September report published in Newsweek which relied on anonymous US defense officials describing that the Biden administration was mulling plans for a "decapitation strike to kill Putin in the heart of the Kremlin."

 

Below is the relevant section from that September 29 Newsweek article:

 

Details about what "decisively" means have not been publicly revealed. The military sources tell Newsweek that there are subtle moves being made with regard to nuclear threats, including moving submarines and aircraft and drilling B-52 bombers. But they stress that non-nuclear military options—the use of conventional weapons and special operations, as well as cyber and space attack—are front and center, to include a decapitation strike to kill Putin in the heart of the Kremlin.

 

Continuing his Tuesday response to this and more recent threats emanating from the West, Lavrov said that "It seems that they have shed all vestiges of respectability."

 

He added: "The notorious [ex-British PM] Liz Truss is a vivid example given that she directly and publicly said during her pre-election campaign that she was ready to order a nuclear strike," he recalled.

No 'dedicated funding': Air Force scraps spy planes used to fight border drug war

 

No current plan exists to replace the RC-26 aircraft despite the Air Force speeding up the program's dismantling, as reported by CNN.

 

Even though the spy planes are relied on heavily to monitor fentanyl smuggling across the U.S./Mexico border, National Guard pilots are being told to scrap the aircraft earlier than expected. Originally reported to face an April 2023 retirement for the planes, pilots received new orders in November 2022 to ditch them before the end of the year.

 

Representative Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) who is also a pilot in the Air National Guard, told CNN that he has been fighting to have the program replaced or extended.

 

“Law enforcement lives have been saved by having this asset available,” Kinzinger told the outlet. “We can see anything weird that’s going to happen,” he added.

 

Rep. Kinzinger, whose profile was elevated drastically after being one of two Republicans in favor of the January 6 committee, says he met with Air Force Secretary Frank Kendall but was essentially told there was no way the program would continue.

 

Kinzinger claims that the secretary made it clear "that DoD business is not, in essence, domestic drug issues even though DoD is one of the primary people responsible."

 

Air Force officials have countered the narrative by stating their drones will fill the void of any manned planes. Using the drones “leaves no capability gap," an official told CNN.

 

“Given there is no Air Force specific RC-26B validated requirements nor dedicated funding to support sustainment of the weapons system,” Air Force spokesperson Ann Stefanek told CNN, “the Air Force is moving forward with the retirement of the aircraft.”

 

In November 2022, the planes were used in three separate fentanyl busts, totaling approximately 22,500 pills each, according to data provided by CNN.

 

According to U.S. Customs and Border Protection, fiscal year 2022 saw nearly 15,000 pounds of fentanyl seized at the southern border, the fifth-highest seizure rate of any one drug, with methamphetamine and khat tied for the highest at 175,000 pounds.

 

However, if fiscal year 2023 numbers continue on their average, fentanyl seizures will more than double their 2022 totals.

 

Rep. Kinzinger wrote for the Air Force Times in 2019 criticizing the eventual decision, stating that it "undermines Trump's border security priorities."

Ukrainian Law Firm Uses Stasi Tactics to ‘Cleanse’ Europe of Suspected ‘Russians’

 

A left-wing Ukrainian law firm is taking their war to Western Europe, where they claim they'll 'cleanse' the land of 'Russians' and 'fascists.' Their Stasi tactics are being employed on unsuspecting non-Russians to destroy their lives.

 

A left-wing Ukrainian law firm is vowing to “cleanse” Western European nations far away from their own of “Russians” and others they claim to be “fascist,” encouraging citizens of Western nations to surveil their neighbors and report anyone they believe to be an undercover Russian directly to the Lviv-based law firm. They’ve even coined a new, dehumanizing term for Russians and their supposed sympathizers, calling them “rashists,” a combination of the words Russian and fascist.

 

T&M, a “boutique” Ukrainian law firm with ties to globalist NGOs, has launched a Stasi-like program to root Russians, or those they claim to be Russians, out of Western European nations far away from their Lviv, Ukraine office.

 

Under the program, the name of which has been crudely translated to English under the title “Give in charge rashist,” Europeans who believe their neighbors or internet enemies have ties to Russia can turn them into the Ukrainian law firm, which will then launch an online investigation and turn their findings into whatever governing body has the authority to expel the “rashist” from Western Europe.

 

“Give in charge rashist,” a T&M webpage dedicated to the Stasi-like program reads, before throwing around multiple buzzwords that have been associated with genocide for the past century.

 

“Do you want to cleanse Europe of rashists?” the web page asks. “Tired of potential invaders living near you? Let us know and we will try to solve this issue in the legal field,” the webpage reads, along with a depiction of a military tank and a map of Europe.

Joe Biden’s Top 15 Most Outlandish Lies

 

1) Law School Grades

Biden claimed in 1987 he graduated in the top half of his class at Syracuse College of Law. He was 76th in a class of 85.

 

2) Arrested in South Africa

Biden falsely claimed in 2022 he was arrested for trying to see Nelson Mandela in South Africa. The Washington Post marks this claim as false.

 

3) First Job

In 2021, Biden claimed in Idaho his “first job offer” was from a local lumber and wood products business, Boise Cascade. The company said there is “no record” of Biden’s claim.

 

4) Visiting a Synagogue

Biden claimed in 2021 he visited Pittsburgh’s Tree of Life synagogue, where 11 people were murdered in 2018. Biden did speak to the Tree of Life rabbi. He never visited the synagogue, as he claimed.

 

5) Unemployment Numbers

Biden claimed in 2022 unemployment was the lowest in 50 years, down from 6.5 percent to 3.5 percent. Biden’s claim was false. The unemployment rate was 3.5 percent under his predecessor

 

6) Visited Afghanistan

Biden claimed in 2022 he had visited Afghanistan and Iraq twice as president. The New York Post marked Biden’s claim as false.

 

7) Naval Academy Appointment

Biden claimed in 2022 claimed he was appointed to the Naval Academy in 1965 by the late Sen. J. Caleb Boggs (R-DE). A search of Boggs’ records fails to produce evidence to support Biden’s claim.

 

8) Beau Died in Iraq

Biden has falsely claimed twice in 2022 that his late son Beau died in Iraq. Beau died at a Maryland hospital.

 

9) Never Spoken to Hunter About Family Business

Joe Biden falsely claimed in 2019 that he never discussed business deals with Hunter. But Joe Biden left Hunter a voicemail in 2018 about a business deal with Chinese energy giant CEFC, directly contradicting Joe Biden’s statement in 2019.

 

“Hey pal, it’s Dad. It’s 8:15 on Wednesday night. If you get a chance just give me a call. Nothing urgent. I just wanted to talk to you,” Joe Biden said. “I thought the article released online, it’s going to be printed tomorrow in the Times, was good. I think you’re clear. And anyway if you get a chance give me a call, I love you.”

 

10) Visited 54 States

Biden falsely claimed in 2022 he campaigned in all 54 states. There are only 50 states in the union.

 

11) Passing Student Loan Legislation

Biden falsely claimed in 2022 he passed “student loan forgiveness.” But no student loan legislation has been passed through Congress.

 

12) Raised by Puerto Ricans

Biden claimed in 2022 he was “sort of raised in the Puerto Rican community at home, politically.” But Biden told the BBC he is Irish. Media reports suggest Biden is five-eighths Irish, stemming from two Irish families.

 

13) Gas Prices

Biden falsely claimed the price of gas is “down from over $5 when I took office.” The day before former President Donald Trump left office, the national average price of gas was $2.38.

 

14) Biden Traveling 17,000 Miles with Chinese President

Biden claimed in 2021 he ‘traveled 17,000 miles with’ Chinese President Xi Jinping. The Washington Post marked Biden’s claims with three Pinocchios.

 

15) Inflation Is Temporary

Biden claimed in 2022 that inflation was only temporary. Before his statement, inflation had raged for months. About six months later, inflation is still soaring at 7.1%.

Zelensky Says Ukraine Ready to Join WEF Meeting in Davos as It Seeks Postwar Funding

 

When the global elites of business, finance, banking, and big government convene in Davos next month at the World Economic Forum (WEF) annual meeting, Ukraine will be amongst them.

 

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed Wednesday his government will be at the meeting in Switzerland, revealing he also spoke again with BlackRock Inc CEO Larry Fink about financing the postwar rebuilding effort.

 

“Specialists of this company are already helping Ukraine to structure the fund for the reconstruction of our state,” Zelensky, who had a video call with Fink in September, said in his evening address to the nation, according to Bloomberg.

 

He didn’t say whether he would attend the January 16-20 WEF in person or participate virtually, although in the past he has been a regular attendee at the elite gathering.

 

Bloomberg reports Zelensky also said he spoke to Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and raised the prospect of Italy contributing to the strengthening of Ukraine’s air defences.

 

Zelensky made an appearance via video at the last meeting back in May when he compared his country to Israel in conversation with WEF boss Klaus Schwab.

 

The Ukrainian leader told the Davos organiser that, whatever happens in the present conflict, “with a neighbour like this” — namely Russia — “anything can happen anytime, and the war may repeat itself,” as Breitbart News reported.

 

Zelensky said that, over the longer term, the Ukrainian government would have to “create such conditions that people and businesses would not be afraid to exist in this country, to thrive in this country.”

 

He then asked the gathering to consider the “example of Israel”, which finds itself in a similarly hostile environment — but has managed to establish itself as a relatively prosperous economy with a thriving tech industry despite existing in a near-constant state of low-level conflict, or worse.

 

Schwab, founder and executive chairman of the WEF had earlier greeted members with the salute: “the future is built by us… by a powerful community… as you here in this room.”

 

“History at a Turning Point: Government and Business Strategies” was the theme for the 2022 edition of the 51-year-old NGO lobbying organization founded by the German engineer and economist.

 

The WEF annual meeting for 2023 will take place in Davos, Klosters from 16-20 January.

 

The theme of the meeting is “Cooperation in a Fragmented World” and some 2,500 people are expected to fly in from around the world to talk as they discuss the future of the planet.

Fmr. DNI Ratcliffe: I Confirmed Hunter Laptop Was Legitimate in 2020, But There Was ‘a Disinformation Campaign on Behalf of Joe Biden’

 

On Tuesday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Ingraham Angle,” former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe reacted to disclosures in the Twitter files about the Hunter Biden laptop story by pointing out that, back in 2020, he clearly rebutted claims that the laptop story was Russian misinformation, but there was “essentially a disinformation campaign on behalf of Joe Biden that involved many people,” and “a suppression of that truth and amplification of a lie that it was Russian disinformation.”

 

Ratcliffe said, [relevant remarks begin around 1:55] “The New York Post broke that story, but I was the one that verified it. I was the one that said, no, despite what a lot of former intelligence officials are saying and Democratic officials like Adam Schiff are saying, it’s not Russian disinformation. And, unfortunately, what we’ve seen and some of what’s now been talked about in the Twitter files is that there was a suppression, essentially a disinformation campaign on behalf of Joe Biden that involved many people, and as a result, some of that information was suppressed from the American voters, even though, as you correctly point out, Jason, that, as the voice of the intelligence people — or as the voice of the intelligence community, I said that this was not Russian disinformation and yet, there was a suppression of that truth and amplification of a lie that it was Russian disinformation.”

Glasgow Sex Trafficker Jagpal Singh was BBC Reality News Show Star

 

International sex trafficker Jagpal Singh starred in a BBC reality show in which “real people” were invited to give “real opinions” on the news of the day.

 

Singh, 52, was part of the regular cast of Common Sense, which purported to feature “real” members of the public “chosen for their sharp wit and humorous take on life, [to] discuss the week’s news” in 2017.

 

Last month, however, he was imprisoned alongside Chinese national Donglin Zhang, 49, Albanian national Vlassis Ntaoulias, 33, and Thai national Boonsong Wannas, 63, for trafficking women to Scotland and forcing them into prostitution.

 

In an article titled ‘The sex traffickers hiding in plain sight’, BBC Scotland social affairs correspondent Chris Clements recalled that, in addition to providing hot takes on U.S. President Donald Trump’s border wall and The Emoji Movie, the predator was invited to opine on the relationship between the sexes.

 

“Men like sex”, Singh said. “I’m not saying women don’t like sex. I think men like sex better. Women are always tired.”

 

Singh’s view of women on this topic may have been coloured by his relationships with his victims, such as a Chinese national described by Scotland’s Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service (COPFS) as having been “brought to Glasgow on the promise of paid employment” only to be “locked in [to a property owned by Ntaoulias] and compelled to work as a prostitute for [Ntaoulias and Singh], seeing as many as 10 customers per day.”

 

“The accused sentenced today exploited vulnerable women for their own financial benefit without any regard to the suffering they caused. Women were trafficked into Scotland to be used as prostitutes and moved around residential properties across the city of Glasgow,” commented Scottish procurator fiscal (prosecutor) Laura Buchan after Singh and his accomplices were sentenced for trafficking and brothel keeping — none to a sentence exceeding ten years, which they are unlikely to serve in full.

 

The BBC article on Singh’s time as an allegedly humourous everyman commentator on current affairs noted that human trafficking crimes like his are currently at a record high.

 

All told, people flagged as possible victims by the Home Office’s National Referral Mechanism (NRM) has increased by around 700 per cent since 2014.

 

“It is predominantly labour exploitation, or exploitation for forced criminality… followed by sexual exploitation,” that victims are drawn into, said Police Scotland’s National Human Trafficking Unit leader, Detective Superintendent Fil Capaldi.

 

“Some are hiding in plain sight,” he said of the exploiters.

 

“There are a number of cases we’ve had recently where members of the public have seen comings and goings at a strange hour, or seen a steady stream of men going to a particular door, and they’ve called that in.”

 

He explained that there is “a real international dimension” to the crimes, referencing collaborations with law enforcement in Continental European countries including Albania, Romania, and Hungary.

Israel helps Ukraine whitewash its Nazis

 

Representatives of Ukraine’s neo-Nazi Azov Battalion have been touring Israel to drum up support for the unit’s imprisoned fighters. They have been meeting with Israeli politicians and soldiers.

 

Azov intelligence officer Illia Samoilenko was released in a prisoner exchange with Russia in September.

 

He had been one of the hundreds of Azov fighters who surrendered in May at the end of the long Russian siege of the eastern city of Mariupol.

 

“Israel values freedom, values strength, Israel values honor. It’s the same things that we also value,” he told Israeli newspaper Haaretz this week.

 

Samoilenko also told The Times of Israel that “he sees Israel and Ukraine on the same side, the civilized battling the uncivilized in a struggle for the future of humanity,” the outlet summarized.

 

“We have prosperity, beautiful, prosperous, beautiful civilization, and they have medieval cavemen,” he said. It seems the “they” in this case are the Palestinians and the Russians, who Samoilenko regards as “uncivilized.”

 

Along for the Israeli tour with Samoilenko is Yulia Fedosiuk, the wife of an imprisoned Azov fighter and a far-right activist in her own right.

 

Both were on a charm offensive this week, as part of a wider push to whitewash Azov’s image in the West.

 

Documented ties to Nazism

 

During the meeting with Lazimi, Samoilenko “debunked the myths created by Russian propaganda about the Azov regiment,” the Azovstal association claimed on its Telegram channel.

 

This seems to be a reference to the Russian government’s accurate claim since the start of its invasion of Ukraine in February that the Azov Battalion is a Nazi organization.

 

But recall that this wasn’t only a claim from Russia, it was widely acknowledged and reported in Western media, including by the EU-funded “investigative” website Bellingcat.

 

In 2019, Bellingcat extensively documented the battalion’s international outreach to white supremacist groups, noting that “Azov’s interest in reaching American extremists and the Ukrainian group’s comfort in cooperating with neo-Nazis in the US and West was on display” until at least 2018 – four years after the Azov battalion was integrated into Ukraine’s national guard.

 

But as the US, UK and EU wage their proxy war against Russia in Ukraine, Western media have largely fallen in line, portraying Azov sympathetically as the “defenders of Mariupol,” as misunderstood nationalists and as the victims of “Putin’s propaganda.”

 

Even the Anti-Defamation League, which previously condemned Azov’s Nazi ties, is falling into line.

 

After the Russian invasion, the ADL engaged in blatant Holocaust revisionism in order to whitewash Hitler’s wartime collaborators who are today venerated as national heroes in Ukraine even though they helped the German leader murder hundreds of thousands of Poles and Jews during World War II.

 

The ADL is now also helping to airbrush Azov. Recently, the Israel lobby group claimed that the Azov Battalion’s 2014 integration into Ukraine’s national guard meant that the Azov military unit had split from the broader far-right Azov political movement and from the movement’s founder Andriy Biletsky.

 

As a consequence, the ADL now says that it “does not see Azov Regiment as the far-right group it once was.”

World Economic Forum cancels Twitter, directs followers to Chinese social media apps

 

The WEF and the CCP are close allies.

 

Prior to its upcoming conference in Davos next month, the World Economic Forum (WEF) appears to have joined the cancel campaign against Twitter, taking to recommending Chinese state-controlled social media apps to “follow along” with Davos Man into the future.

 

Twitter is noticeably absent from the entities listed on the organization’s “How to follow Davos 2023” social media pamphlet, and that appears to be no accident.

 

To stay up to speed with all that is happening within the invite-only doors of the ruling class confab, the WEF recommends following along through a handful of social media sites. They include the U.S.-based narrative-compliant Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, and YouTube, along with the Chinese social media apps TikTok WeChat, and Weibo. Twitter, which has freed itself from the grasp of the WEF-endorsed censorship-compliant social apps, is no longer included.

 

Through its founder Klaus Schwab and partner organizations, the WEF has a very cozy relationship with the Chinese government. Davos recently revealed that their China office now has 40 full time staffers. Moreover, every year in Beijing, the WEF hosts its “Annual Meeting of the New Champions,” which facilitates partnerships between international businesses and the Chinese Community Party. In 2018, the CCP awarded Klaus Schwab with its China Reform Friendship Medal, a medal for non-Chinese people who do the CCP’s bidding overseas.

 

Davos 2023 will feature Shou Zi Chew, the CEO of TikTok, on stage. First reported by The Dossier, he will appear at an event titled “Tackling Harm in The Digital Era.”

 

In case you missed it, The Dossier has obtained an early, partial list of both events and confirmed speakers for Davos 2023. On the agenda for the 2023 conference includes event titles such as Why We Need Battery Passports, Leading The Charge Through Earth’s New Normal, A Living Wage For All, Enabling An Equitable Transition, and Beyond The Rainbow: Advancing LGBTQ Rights, among others.

 

The Bird App has faced a ferocious cancel campaign following its change of management. Elon Musk’s pledge to turn Twitter into a free speech platform has met major resistance from the institutional corporate and governmental ruling class. Several WEF partners, such as BlackRock, have joined the attacks against Twitter, boycotting the platform in protest of its “content moderation” policies. It should come as no surprise that the ruling class’s favorite narrative and ideas shop for technocratic tyranny has come after Twitter, given that the latter app is now serving as the one major global social media platform for open debate and dialogue.

Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt is helping to fund the salaries of dozens of Biden officials

 

Some of these officials have been placed with the goal of focusing on AI and clean energy — two areas where Schmidt has investments.

 

Eric Schmidt, a former Google CEO who has also advised the United States (US) Congress and the White House, has helped to pay the salaries of more than 24 Biden administration officials via donations from his research and investment firm, Schmidt Futures, to the nonprofit research and advocacy organization, the Federation of American Scientists (FAS).

 

Schmidt Futures and other organizations help to pay the salaries of these officials by providing funding to a “Talent Hub” which is part of a FAS “Day One Project.” This Day One Project runs a FAS “Impact Fellowship” program that places “Impact Fellows” in influential government posts.

 

Not only has Schmidt Futures contributed to FAS but Schmidt has considerable ties to top FAS leadership and one of the Impact Fellows who was placed in a federal government role was also listed as an adviser to Schmidt Futures.

 

Additionally, some of the Impact Fellows are placed in federal departments to focus on areas such as clean energy and artificial intelligence (AI) — fields that Schmidt and the ventures he supports have significant investments in.

 

For example, FAS’s 2021 Annual Report states that some Impact Fellows were “deployed at or being recruited to enter” the Department of Energy “to support the Undersecretary for Science’s office in driving critical market-based efforts to spur a clean energy revolution” and US Citizenship and Immigration Services “to focus on the intersection of immigration policy & artificial intelligence in advancing the nation’s national security and economic growth.”

 

Schmidt and the ventures he supports have investments in the clean energy companies WattBuy (an energy marketplace) and Amprius (a high-energy battery company) and the AI company Rebellion Defense (which builds mission-focused AI for national defense and security).

 

And some of these Schmidt-backed companies have ties to the federal government departments where Impact Fellows have been placed. For example, WattBuy has partnered with the Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory and Amprius has received a funding grant from the Department of Energy.

 

The Tech Transparency Project (TTP), a nonprofit watchdog organization, reported that Schmidt is “a primary benefactor” of this FAS initiative “that has placed at least 24 fellows in influential government posts, many of which align with Eric Schmidt’s private financial interests.”

 

According to TTP, two of the fellows placed in the federal government “explicitly identify themselves as Schmidt fellows.”

 

One Impact Fellow at the Department of Education, John Whitmer, is listed as a “Schmidt Impact Fellow” and an adviser to Schmidt Futures in his speaker bio at the annual Arizona State University and Global Silicon Valley summit.

 

Another Impact Fellow, Jonathan Lipman, was listed as being deployed to the General Services Administration on March 23 but this listing was removed by March 29. At the same time, Lipman was also working as an Associated Product Manager at Schmidt Futures.

Geoengineering: Startup Company Says It’s Already Begun Releasing Particles Into Atmosphere

 

A startup claims it has launched weather balloons that may have released reflective sulfur particles in the stratosphere, potentially crossing a controversial barrier in the field of solar geoengineering.

 

Geoengineering refers to deliberate efforts to manipulate the climate by reflecting more sunlight back into space, mimicking a natural process that occurs in the aftermath of large volcanic eruptions. In theory, spraying sulfur and similar particles in sufficient quantities could potentially ease global warming.

 

It’s not technically difficult to release such compounds into the stratosphere. But scientists have mostly (though not entirely) refrained from carrying out even small-scale outdoor experiments. And it’s not clear that any have yet injected materials into that specific layer of the atmosphere in the context of geoengineering-related research.

 

That’s in part because it’s highly controversial. Little is known about the real-world effect of such deliberate interventions at large scales, but they could have dangerous side effects. The impacts could also be worse in some regions than others, which could provoke geopolitical conflicts.

 

Some researchers who have long studied the technology are deeply troubled that the company, Make Sunsets, appears to have moved forward with launches from a site in Mexico without any public engagement or scientific scrutiny. It’s already attempting to sell “cooling credits” for future balloon flights that could carry larger payloads.

 

Several researchers MIT Technology Review spoke with condemned the effort to commercialize geoengineering at this early stage. Some potential investors and customers who have reviewed the company’s proposals say that it’s not a serious scientific effort or a credible business but more of an attention grab designed to stir up controversy in the field.

 

Luke Iseman, the cofounder and CEO of Make Sunsets, acknowledges that the effort is part entrepreneurial and part provocation, an act of geoengineering activism.

 

He hopes that by moving ahead in the controversial space, the startup will help drive the public debate and push forward a scientific field that has faced great difficulty carrying out small-scale field experiments amid criticism.

 

“We joke slash not joke that this is partly a company and partly a cult,” he says.

The Government lets slip a Tragic & Sinister Secret: COVID Vaccination is killing Thousands & is more dangerous than the Disease itself

 

The World Health Organization (WHO) states that “COVID-19 vaccines are one of the most successful and cost-effective public health interventions.”

 

But the UK Government has released shocking evidence that the Covid-19 vaccines are in fact deadly, causing thousands of deaths.

 

So does the WHO stand by this statement because Covid-19 injections are killing thousands and are, therefore, saving billions that would have otherwise been spent on healthcare throughout each person’s life?

 

Because an official UK Government report confirms that the unvaccinated population in every single age group in England has the lowest mortality rates per 100,000. The data also reveals that the gap in mortality rates between the vaccinated and unvaccinated populations is growing larger each month.

 

As of May 2022, the most recent month with available data, the partly vaccinated, double vaccinated, and triple vaccinated populations were all significantly more likely to die from any cause than the unvaccinated population.

 

That report was published the day before Boris Johnson announced he was resigning as Prime Minister of the UK, on the 6th of July, by the UK’s Office for National Statistics, which is a UK Government agency.

 

The report is titled ‘Deaths by Vaccination Status, England, 1 January 2021 to 31 May 2022‘, and it can be accessed on the ONS site here, and downloaded here.

'Natural Right to the Land of Israel': Netanyahu Lays Out Far-reaching West Bank Settlement Plans

 

The vague agreement says that incoming Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will advance a framework to annex the West Bank, taking into consideration national and international interests

 

Benjamin Netanyahu's incoming government's coalition agreement begins with a declaration that the Jewish people have a “natural right” to the Land of Israel. Regarding annexation of the West Bank, the agreement remains vague but says the prime minister will advance policies within whose framework the West Bank will be annexed, taking into consideration timing and both international and national interests.

 

Referring to the court appeal now underway concerning the evacuation of the Homesh outpost, the agreement says that in light of the appeal, the Disengagement Law will be amended to regularize the activities being conducted at the site (in practice, a yeshiva) and that the government will notify the High Court of Justice to that effect.

 

The agreement says that within 60 days a decision will be made pertaining to outposts established before February 2011 – including ensuring they have proper infrastructure, water, electricity, and public facilities. In addition, within six months, the cabinet will make a decision on illegal neighborhoods inside existing settlements.

 

The agreement also calls for changing the way in which building permits for settlements are approved. Today, each stage of the planning process requires prior approval by the defense minister – a step that can cause delays in construction due to domestic or international political considerations. The accord calls for a cabinet decision on changing the planning and approval process according to a proposal to be agreed upon between Netanyahu and Bezalel Smotrich. However, it doesn’t provide further details.

 

The goal behind this clause is to reduce interference by politicians in the process, including the defense minister and prime minister. According to a source involved in the wording of the agreement, the goal is to require approvals only at the start and end of the planning process, rather than at each stage in order to accelerate construction plans in the territories.

 

Another clause concerns the transfer of control of services provided to settlers from the Civil Administration to government ministries. Though vaguely worded, it says that the government will act to “optimize services” in the West Bank in coordination and with the consent of the prime minister, but the source involved in the talks said that it means transfer of control.

 

The cabinet is also obligated under the agreement to take measures against Palestinian construction in the West Bank’s Area C, which is referred to as "thwarting the effort at taking illegal control" of land that is being carried out with the help of international entities.

 

The agreement also states that the relevant ministries will act to ensure implementation of the Evyatar framework, under which the previous government committed itself to allowing an outpost to be established there if planning rules permit.

Biden Cabinet Member’s Major Conflict Of Interest – Has Final Decision On Issue Daughter Is Lobbying For

 

The daughter of Biden’s Interior Secretary Deb Haaland went to Washington D.C. to lobby federal lawmakers for a moratorium on oil and gas leasing near a historical site in New Mexico.

 

She traveled with other climate activists arguing drilling near the Chaco Culture National Historical Park would do damage to local communities in the area.

 

According to the report, the Bureau of Land Management is set to agree to the demands made by activists.

 

The Bureau of Land Management is a sub-agency within the Department of Interior.

 

Those who oppose the mortarium claim that Haaland has completely ignored a compromise solution that was brought.

 

Fox News reported:

 

Interior Secretary Deb Haaland’s daughter Somah Haaland traveled to Washington, D.C., last week to lobby federal lawmakers to support a moratorium on oil and gas leasing near a historical site in New Mexico.

 

Somah Haaland – who is a media organizer for the Pueblo Action Alliance, a cultural and environmental group in New Mexico – traveled to Capitol Hill alongside a group of fellow climate activists, according to the environmental group WildEarth Guardians. The activists argued that drilling near the Chaco Culture National Historical Park in northwestern New Mexico would cause irreparable damage to local communities and the environment.

 

 

Meanwhile, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), a subagency within Secretary Deb Haaland’s Department of Interior (DOI) that is tasked with managing nearly 250 million acres of federal lands, is expected to soon finalize a rule acceding to activists’ demands. Earlier this month, the agency closed a comment period for its proposal to withdraw 351,500 acres of public lands within 10 miles of the Chaco site for 20 years.

 

 

“The department is completely ignoring a compromise solution advanced by the Navajo Nation, whose lands are directly affected by the decision, whereas the Puebloan people are hundreds of miles away,” Sgamma told Fox News Digital.

 

This presents a massive conflict of interest for Deb Haaland.

 

Legal Insurrection reported:

 

When the history of the Biden administration is written, it will be exceedingly difficult to determine which of his appointments have been most destructive to this nation.

 

One of the leading contenders must be Biden’s Department of the Interior Secretary Deb Haaland. The last time we checked in on her team of social-justice-focused, eco-activist-oriented bureaucrats, they walked back the required auctions for gas and oil leases necessary to this nation for its energy industry.

 

Now a significant conflict-of-interest issue has arisen as her daughter, Somah Haaland, is lobbying federal lawmakers to support a moratorium on oil and gas leasing near a historical site in New Mexico.

 

The GOP needs to look into this!

Fauci Argued Benefits of Gain-of-Function Research Outweighed Pandemic Risk in 2012 Paper

 

In a newly resurfaced paper from 2012, Dr. Anthony Fauci argued that the benefits of gain-of-function research are worth the increased risk of a potential pandemic-causing lab accident.

 

The Weekend Australian unearthed a paper Fauci wrote for the American Society for Microbiology in October 2012 in which he argued in support of gain-of-function research. Such research involves making viruses more infectious and/or deadly. Experts have raised the possibility that the COVID-19 pandemic could have originated from a potential lab leak at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in Wuhan, China, where gain-of-function experiments on bat coronaviruses have been conducted.

 

Despite the risks involved, Fauci called gain-of-function experiments “important work” in his 2012 writing:

 

In an unlikely but conceivable turn of events, what if that scientist becomes infected with the virus, which leads to an outbreak and ultimately triggers a pandemic? Many ask reasonable questions: given the possibility of such a scenario – however remote – should the initial experiments have been performed and/or published in the first place, and what were the processes involved in this decision?

 

Scientists working in this field might say – as indeed I have said – that the benefits of such experiments and the resulting knowledge outweigh the risks. It is more likely that a pandemic would occur in nature, and the need to stay ahead of such a threat is a primary reason for performing an experiment that might appear to be risky.

 

Within the research community, many have expressed concern that important research progress could come to a halt just because of the fear that someone, somewhere, might attempt to replicate these experiments sloppily. This is a valid concern.

The Weekend Australian report adds that Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, did not alert senior White House officials before lifting a ban on gain-of-function research in 2017.

 

In 2014, the Obama administration paused funding for gain-of-function experiments in 22 fields, including those involving SARS, influenza and MERS because of the increased risk such experimentation carries of causing a pandemic. In 2012, when Fauci authored the paper supporting gain-of-function research, there was a voluntary ban on such experiments related to highly infectious influenza viruses.

 

Yet the EcoHealth Alliance diverted $600,000 in grants from the NIH to the WIV in the form of sub-grants from 2014 through 2019, for the purpose of studying bat coronaviruses.
