Pentagon confirms myocarditis cases in troops spiked after COVID vax rollout

 

Myocarditis diagnoses skyrocketed among U.S. troops after the COVID-19 vaccine was rolled out, according to a top Defense Department official.

 

Gilbert Cisneros Jr., undersecretary of defense for personnel and readiness, confirmed the annual average of myocarditis cases soared 151% in 2021 in the wake of the COVID-19 vaccine rollout, Epoch Times reported.

 

Myocarditis is inflammation of the heart muscle, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

 

“When reported, the cases have especially been in adolescents and young adult males within several days after mRNA COVID-19 vaccination (Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna),” the CDC’s website states.

Russia plans to start testing its digital ruble CBDC this summer

 

Russian lawmakers have approved the development of a digital ruble, and it could begin testing later this summer. While the bill has already passed through Russia's higher legislative body, it must obtain a signature from President Vladimir Putin before it can go into effect.

 

The Russian central bank reportedly plans to launch a test of the digital ruble involving 15 lenders. Businesses and consumers alike will be given the ability to open a digital wallet using the central bank's platform that they can access through Russian banks.

 

As a central bank digital currency, or CBDC, the digital ruble would be a centralized token whose value is tied to the country's fiat currency.

 

The digital ruble pilot comes against the landscape of ongoing economic sanctions against the country due to its war with Ukraine that are making it challenging to conduct business. For example, major corporations like Visa and MasterCard have cut ties with Russia. Meanwhile, its domestic payment system, which is known as Mir, is only accepted by a few countries.

 

Although the digital ruble's original planned use was for retail purposes, testing is expected to focus on cross-border payments as Russia looks for ways to skirt economic sanctions.

 

The Russian central bank first signaled its interest in developing a digital currency in 2017, but it was not considered a major priority at the time. However, in 2022, the Russian central bank announced that it would be introducing a digital ruble by 2024, implementing the currency in stages with the support of thorough testing and the development of appropriate infrastructure. The central bank indicated that the digital ruble would coexist with traditional non-cash and cash payment systems so that consumers would have greater flexibility.

 

An earlier launch of the pilot was delayed, and the bill was amended so the digital ruble could be used by foreigners rather than being limited to residents. The current framework gives the Russian central bank the position of primary operator of the infrastructure as well as responsibility for keeping stored assets secure.

 

Those who use the digital ruble will not be able to open savings accounts with it as it is intended to serve as a method of making transfers and payments. While individual customers will not be charged for payments or transfers with the CBDC, corporate clients will be charged a 0.3 percent fee.

 

Bank of Russia First Deputy Governor Olga Skorobogatova said every citizen should have access to digital rubles sometime between 2025 and 2027, with a more specific timeline depending on how prepared individual banks are to adopt the required infrastructure.

Hunter Biden’s attorney files ethics complaint against Marjorie Taylor Greene for showing sexual images

 

Hunter Biden’s lawyer filed an ethics complaint against Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) Friday, requesting that an ethics watchdog “immediately” initiate a review of Greene’s conduct after she showed sexually explicit photos of Biden at a congressional hearing this week.

 

In a letter to the Office of Congressional Ethics (OCE), Biden attorney Abbe David Lowell slammed Greene’s actions as “abhorrent behavior that blatantly violates House Ethics rules and standards of official conduct.”

 

“Now more than ever, the House has a duty to make loud and clear that it does not endorse, condone, or agree with her outrageous, undignified conduct and brazen violations of the standards of official conduct that do not reflect creditably on the House of Representatives,” Lowell wrote.

 

The OCE is a non-partisan, independent entity previously established by the House that reviews allegations of misconduct involving lawmakers, officers and House staffers and, if warranted, refers matters to the Ethics Committee.

 

Greene and the OCE did not immediately respond to requests for comment

 

The episode in question took place Wednesday during a House Oversight and Accountability Committee hearing that featured testimony from two IRS whistleblowers who allege that prosecutors slow-walked the investigation into Hunter Biden.

 

During her time to question the witnesses, Greene held up posters that showed graphic sexual photos from the laptop hard drive that allegedly belonged to Hunter Biden. The faces of other individuals involved in the sex acts were censored with black boxes, but Biden’s face was visible in the photos.

Detransitioned boy castrated by doctors warns kids about perils of gender ideology: 'Patient for life'

 

Kobe said, 'I was expecting it to help me help my mental health, and it didn't do anything. I just wasted so much time and all I did really was become a medical patient for life'

 

A young male, who formerly identified as a transwoman, who was castrated and became a "patient for life" as part of "gender-affirming care," wants to warn others not to follow in his footsteps. He discussed his story of resilience and learning to accept himself for who he is for the first time with Fox News Digital.

 

Kobe, whose name is being withheld for privacy reasons, had "checked every box for what they call a trans adolescent." He was always "effeminate" and loved pink and playing with Barbies. If he was never exposed to gender ideology, he says he'd probably "would have just stayed a feminine boy. And there's nothing wrong with that."

 

"I felt unlovable as an effeminate man in society and everything. A feminine boy, actually. I was never a man, I'm trying to reclaim my manhood now and everything. It's hard. I have breasts, I have the hip development of a woman because I started the estrogen young. I have no gonads. You know, it's hard. My skull never really masculinized."

 

Kobe, in retrospect, looks back at the medical interventions as a subconscious use of "self-harm." During his early teenage years, he was struggling with internalized homophobia. "I mean, I saw it as a way out of my homosexuality if that makes any sense."

 

However, he didn't realize these truths until he got his surgery.

 

"I was like, 'Oh, wow, this is so great. I'm locked in my transition… But then everything started to crack and I couldn't ignore the complications," Kobe said. "I couldn't ignore that I mutilated myself pretty much with the permission of a psychiatrist. It's insane now, looking back. It's just self-harm, you know."

 

Kobe first encountered the idea of switching genders on YouTube.

 

"And I said, ‘Oh, you can do this.’ You know, I don't have to be a gay guy. I don't have to be an embarrassment. And all this horrible stuff that I thought about my homosexuality, and it was like a light bulb. It was like, this is a way out," he said. "I thought it was."

 

Kobe told his parents that he was transgender at age 11. At 13, Kobe said that older trans people online instructed him, as well as other kids, to "play the suicide card" in order to get chemical interventions.

Prosecutors accuse FTX's Bankman-Fried of witness tampering

 

The prosecutors argued that Bankman-Fried was trying to malign Ellison's credibility, and that such conduct could chill witnesses from testifying and taint the jury pool.

 

US prosecutors have accused FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried of witness tampering and asked a federal judge to issue an order that would bar the former billionaire and other parties from making public statements likely to interfere with a fair trial.

 

The prosecutors wrote to US District Judge Lewis Kaplan on Thursday referencing a New York Times article titled "Inside the Private Writings of Caroline Ellison, Star Witness in the FTX Case".

 

The article reported excerpts from Ellison's personal Google documents from before the collapse of FTX in which she spoke about being "pretty unhappy and overwhelmed" with her job and feeling "hurt/rejected" from her breakup with Bankman-Fried.

 

Ellison led Bankman-Fried's Alameda Research hedge fund and has pleaded guilty to defrauding investors and agreed to cooperate with prosecutors. In December, Bankman-Fried said he and Ellison had been in a relationship but gave no further details.

 

Prosecutors said it was apparent Bankman-Fried shared documents with the New York Times and that his lawyers have since confirmed to the government that he met with one of the article's authors in person and shared documents "that were not part of the government's discovery material."

 

Bankman-Fried's spokesperson and lawyers did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Neither New York Times nor Ellison's lawyers responded to Reuters' requests for comment.

Attempting to malign Ellison's credibility

 

The prosecutors argued that by sharing these documents, Bankman-Fried was trying to malign Ellison's credibility, and that such conduct could chill witnesses from testifying and taint the jury pool.

 

"By selectively sharing certain private documents with the New York Times, the defendant is attempting to discredit a witness, cast Ellison in a poor light, and advance his defense through the press and outside the constraints of the courtroom and rules of evidence: that Ellison was a jilted lover who perpetrated these crimes alone", prosecutors wrote in the letter.

 

Earlier on Thursday, FTX Trading sued founder Bankman-Fried and other former executives of the cryptocurrency exchange, seeking to recoup more than $1 billion they allegedly misappropriated before FTX went bankrupt.

Russian Legendary Military Commander Igor Strelkov Arrested In Moscow

 

Igor Strelkov once said that if he was allowed to go fighting on the Ukrainian frontlines, then (the Kremlin) made the decision to fight until Russia wins the war. If he is jailed, i.e. that the “surrender party” definitely won in Russia.

 

On July 21, former DPR Defense Minister, Russian military and political activist, Igor Girkin (Strelkov) was arrested. He is charged with public calls to extremist activities through Internet.

 

The court arrested the former head of the DPR Defense Ministry until September 18 after a case was launched against him under Part 2 of Article 280 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (public calls for extremism using the Internet). Strelkov faces a sentence of up to five years in prison.

 

The prosecutor noted that Strelkov served in the operational unit of the special services and has the skills of conspiracy, insisting on his arrest. In his turn, Strelkov claimed that he had no intentions to leave the country or escape from the investigation.

 

“I have been living permanently in Moscow for 9 years, I have never been hiding from the FSB and other services… The investigator’s statement that I can hide abroad is ridiculous. Because I am wanted in many countries and sentenced to life by The Hague Court,” Strelkov reportedly claimed.

 

Strelkov reportedly said that he has angor pectoris of the second degree and asked for house arrest. In addition, he has three children, including one minor child, whom he supports financially. He added that he still has a grandmother who has a chronic illness. However, he was sent to a detention center until September 18.

 

Strelkov’s lawyer explained that the ex-minister of the DPR recognized the publication of two posts in his telegram channel.

 

On May 25, he expressed his opinion on the possible surrender of Crimea, calling it state treason. The second post, which led to the launch of the criminal case, told about the non-payments to the Russian military.

 

“It’s a disgrace if they don’t pay money to the assault regiment. And I agree with that,” Strelkov’s lawyer, commented on the issue.

 

Strelkov’s posts were reportedly checked by an “expert”. According to the lawyer, this is an unacceptable proof, since there are at least no necessary signatures and it is unclear who this expert is. In the case file there is a survey of a resident of the Crimea, which says that he read Strelkov’s post and felt indignation.

 

The case was initiated on July 18. According to preliminary data, it was launched at the request of a former employee of the Wagner PMC. Igor Strelkov had a conflict with Wagner’s Group. In particular, after the mutiny on June 24, Strelkov consistently sought condemnation of the actions of the PMC and its leader Yevgeny Prigozhin.

 

Strelkov was one of the leaders of the militia in the Donbass in 2014. From May 15 to August 14 of the same year, he served as the Minister of Defense of the DPR. After his retirement, Strelkov did not take part in military operations but attempted to come back to the front lines several times.

 

Strelkov recently created a so-called Club of Angry Patriots, and was considered one of the leaders of Russian patriotic opposition. His arrest may mark the beginning of a larger campaign against Russian patriotic opinion leaders. Moreover, Moscow’s campaign against Strelkov may also signal the change in the Russian policy and any new “goodwill gestures” by the Kremlin and the Russian military can be expected.

Climate engineering is already having severe negative impacts on our weather, food supplies, biodiversity and health

 

US presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. recently interviewed Dane Wigington, founder of Geoengineering Watch, about climate engineering and its hidden role in climate change.

 

According to Wigington, geoengineering projects of various kinds are already having severe impacts on weather patterns, our ability to grow food, biodiversity and human health.

 

The White House is considering a plan to block sunlight from hitting the surface of the earth in a bid to halt global warming, a process known as solar radiation modification (“SRM”). A supercomputer called Derecho is analysing the effects of solar geoengineering to help climate scientists decide whether SRM will be a good idea.

 

Intentional climate engineering or geoengineering – including solar dimming – has been going on for more than 70 years.

Is Climate Engineering Real?

In the video above, US presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. interviews Dane Wigington, founder of GeoengineeringWatch.org, about climate engineering and its hidden role in climate change. Wigington also produced the documentary ‘The Dimming’.

 

While Wigington has tried to raise awareness about the reality of climate engineering for the last two decades, his work is now gaining traction after the White House announced it’s backing a plan to block sunlight in a climate engineering effort.

White House Considers Measure to Block Sunlight

 

As reported by the Daily Mail, July 1, 2023:1

 

The White House has opened the door to an audacious plan to block sunlight from hitting the surface of the Earth in a bid to halt global warming.

 

Despite some scientists warning the effort could have untold side effects from altering the chemical makeup of the atmosphere, President Joe Biden’s administration has admitted they’re open to the idea, which has never been attempted before.

 

In a report2 released Friday by the White House, officials suggested limiting sunlight to rapidly cool the planet, a process known as solar radiation modification (SRM) …

 

The report noted several ways authorities could look to achieve SRM, all of which come with potentially devastating consequences if they backfire … undertaking the mammoth task could have severe ramifications for weather patterns and food supplies, which would in turn impact biodiversity, geopolitics, and health.

 

Policymakers in the European Union recently called for an international assessment of geoengineering risks, noting that:3

 

These technologies introduce new risks to people and ecosystems, while they could also increase power imbalances between nations, spark conflicts and raises a myriad of ethical, legal, governance and political issues.

ESG Pioneer Blackrock Names CEO of World’s Largest Oil Company to Its Board

 

Asset management giant BlackRock announced on Monday that it had named the CEO of Saudi Aramco, the world’s largest oil company, to its board of directors.

 

The CEO of Blackrock, Larry Fink, praised his Aramco counterpart Amin Nasser for his “understanding” of the “shift towards a low carbon economy” and “unique perspective” on issues of importance to the corporation in a statement on Monday, according to CNBC.

 

The choice of elevating the head of a fossil fuel giant with profits larger than corporations such as Apple and Facebook to the board of the company appeared to defy BlackRock’s reputation as one of the world’s most aggressive proponents of “Environmental, Social, and Governance” (ESG) standards for corporations – political goals meant to advance goals surrounding climate change, racism, and other left-wing political topics of interest. It also follows a similarly curious decision on behalf of the United Nations, which regularly champions climate alarmism, to grant leadership of its COP28 climate conference to Sultan al-Jaber, the CEO of the Abu Dhabi National Oil Co. – the United Arab Emirates (UAE) state oil company.

 

In his announcement on Monday, Fink emphasized that Nasser, the Aramco CEO, would fit in well with BlackRock’s corporate values.

 

“Amin’s distinguished career at Aramco, spanning more than four decades, gives him a unique perspective on many of the key issues facing our firm and our clients,” CNBC quoted Fink as saying. “His leadership experience, understanding of the global energy industry and the drivers of the shift towards a low carbon economy, as well as his knowledge of the Middle East region, will all contribute meaningfully to the BlackRock Board dialogue.”

 

Fink has for years suggested using BlackRock’s influence to further left-wing ESG goals.

Warnbro 'child abduction': Girl found 'with her hands bound' outside an IGA in Perth after stranger took her from school

 

A nine-year-old girl got into a stranger's car Friday morning

She was found outside an IGA in Port Kennedy, south Perth

A man in his 30s was arrested

 

A nine-year-old girl was found barefoot and crying with her hands bound by zip-ties after she was allegedly abducted by a stranger on her way to school, a witness said.

 

The little girl was allegedly snatched by a mystery man while heading into school in Warnbro, south Perth, at about 8.45am on Friday.

 

A concerned parent spotted the girl getting inside a silver ute and reported it to the school who in turn reported the suspicious encounter to police.

 

'They thought that was suspicious and immediately reported it to the school,' Acting Det-Insp. Scott Johnson from the sex crimes division said.

 

'The school did their due diligence in checking to see if the child was at school and contacted the parents and she wasn't so police responded.'

 

The nine-year-old was quickly declared missing and police launched a large-scale search.

 

The girl's mother also shared a desperate plea online, writing 'someone has taken [my daughter] from school'.

 

'She was seen being picked up by a man in a grey/silver ute at 8.25am outside of [the primary school] in Warnbro.'

 

The little girl was found a short time later alone outside an IGA in nearby Port Kennedy.

 

Det-Insp Johnson said staff spotted her 'in distress and contacted police'.

 

'Shortly afterwards, police from a number of different units swarmed the Rockingham area and located a male in his 30s and what we believe is the vehicle used to take the child,' he said.

 

Witnesses told The West Australian the girl's hands had been bound with zip-ties.

 

Worker Alicia Janse Van Vuuren said the girl was taken from the small shopping centre in an ambulance.

 

'We saw her coming out of IGA and saw her being taken into the ambulance,' she said.

Former US President Clinton visits Albania, urges solution to crisis in northern Kosovo

 

Former U.S. President Bill Clinton, during a visit to Albania, called for a solution to the crisis in northern Kosovo that has ratcheted up tensions between the Pristina government and the country’s Serb minority and Belgrade.

 

In a speech in Tirana on July 3, Clinton directly addressed the tensions that have boiled over following the election of ethnic Albanian mayors in four Serb-majority towns after Serbian leaders called for a boycott of the votes.

 

“There is a dispute going on in Kosovo that I wish had never happened,” Clinton said during the first day of a two-day visit.

 

With the Serb boycott, minority Albanian candidates were able to win the mayoral posts with a minimum number of votes, leading to violent protests by many local Serbs after Kosovar authorities defied Western warnings and used force to install the winners in city halls.

 

Clinton said the Kosovo people “created those four towns for the benefit of the Serbs….So I think that they [Serb residents] made a mistake not to vote,” Clinton said.

 

“I think it is easy for the Albanians, now in the majority [in Kosovo], to try to take advantage of the moment to make their point, but the real thing we need to do is to stop this nonsense…What big political issue can be advanced by having these tensions? The people in those municipalities need decent government and citizens need to vote,” he said.

 

The protests, which turned violent and led to injuries among NATO-led KFOR peacekeepers and demonstrators, took place after Western-backed Pristina ignored pleas to avoid escalation and instead tried to forcibly seat the ethnic Albanian mayors after the boycotted elections.

 

U.S. and EU diplomats told Kosovar Prime Minister Albin Kurti that he needed to calm the situation in the north, hold new municipal elections, and return to dialogue with Serbia on normalizing relations. Diplomats have also long urged Belgrade to take steps to normalize relations with Kosovo, which it refuses to recognize.

 

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic has refused to meet directly with Kurti in efforts to simmer tensions, which also rose when three Kosovar police officers were detained by Serbian authorities last month.

Christian Woman Gang-Raped and Paraded Naked in India: ‘The Police Were There with the Mob’

 

Huge protests erupted in the conflicted Indian state of Manipur on Friday after a viral video showed two women from the Christian Kuki tribe being paraded naked and sexually assaulted by a howling mob of men.

 

The horrifying video has brought the steadily escalating Manipur crisis to the point of explosion and finally forced Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to speak about the situation.

 

https://youtu.be/a2FlGGWXUjE

 

Manipur’s mix of hill-dwelling Christian tribes and majority-Hindu lowland villagers has been restless for quite some time, but the current crisis kicked into high gear in May when the Meitei villagers demanded the same special benefits extended to the much smaller and poorer Kuki and Naga tribal minorities. The tribes were outraged by this demand, and the argument soon led to vandalism and riots.

 

The Indian central government, which is dominated by Modi’s BJP party, strove to avoid getting pulled into the Manipur crisis. Opposition parties, especially the Indian National Congress (INC), leaped on the opportunity to portray BJP as callous and negligent. The opposition hinted that BJP’s Hindu nationalist character made it reluctant to protect Manipur’s Christian minority from Hindu mobs.

 

BJP, in turn, accused INC of milking the crisis for political gain and pulling stunts that made the conflict worse, such as INC leader Rahul Gandhi making a showy visit to Manipur villages in late June.

 

The viral video threatening to set Manipur ablaze was actually filmed on May 4 in the Thoubal district, but was not made public until Wednesday because the Indian government long ago blacked out Internet coverage in Manipur.

 

In the video clip, which is less than 30 seconds long, two nude Kuki women – one in her 20s, the other in her 40s – were dragged toward an open field by a large mob of men who screamed insults at them. Some of the men groped the victims as they were pulled along.

 

The clip ends with a group of men raping the younger woman. According to police reports, a third woman in her 50s was also assaulted and the youngest victim’s father and brother were killed by the mob, which numbered close to a thousand men, many of them armed with rifles.

 

The mob looted and burned the village where the victims lived. According to the police complaint, the three women and the two men who were killed had actually fled the village and were under police protection when the mob took them away from the police. The father of the family was murdered instantly, while his son was killed while attempting to protect the women. The three women survived the assault and made their way to a relief camp.
