Hunter Biden Sues Giuliani For 'Hacking' His Abandoned Laptop

 

According to the complaint, Giuliani and Costello broke the law when they accessed the data given them to by the owner of said shop, John Paul Mac Isaac - who Hunter sued in March. More recently, the younger Biden also sued a former Trump White House aide for publishing the contents of his laptop on his website, Marco Polo. (Mac Isaac sued Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), CNN, Politico and the Daily Beast in May of 2022 for suggesting he was a Kremlin operative. The case is still pending in Sussex County, Del.).

 

"In light of the foregoing illegal activities by Defendants, their refusals to cease and desist in their unlawful behavior, and their apparent intention to continue violating the law in the future, Plaintiff has no alternative but to commence this lawsuit," Biden's attorney wrote in the suit filed on Tuesday in Los Angeles federal court.

 

Giuliani and his allies have long argued that the purported laptop was fair game because it was allegedly abandoned. But at the heart of the lawsuit is the argument that regardless of where any piece of computer hardware was located, Hunter Biden’s data still belongs to him alone. A member of his legal team, granted anonymity to discuss his newly aggressive legal strategy, put it this way: “If you take your coat to the dry cleaner and leave your wallet in it, and you forget to pick it up, it doesn’t mean the dry cleaner gets the wallet and all your money. It’s just common sense.” -Politico

 

"Everyone involved in stealing and manipulating Hunter’s data should be hearing footsteps right about now," said a member of Hunter's legal team who hinted that more litigation could follow.

Endless Money: Biden Administration Awards $2 Billion Loan for Poland to Modernize Its Army – Move Comes as Scandal Shows Squalid, Grotesque Conditions in Some American Military Installations

 

When it comes to funding foreign armies around the world, US money is seemingly endless – but for the basic, everyday needs of the American military itself, apparently there’s never much funds.

 

The Biden administration announced Monday (25) that it is offering a $2 billion loan to Poland, an important ally which has been a ‘hub’ for weapons going into Ukraine, to support the ally’s defense modernization.

 

Associated Press reported:

 

“The State Department said in a statement that Poland is a ‘stalwart’ ally of the U.S. whose ‘security is vital to the collective defense” of NATO ’s eastern flank, and that such funding is reserved for Washington’s most important security partners’.”

 

It has also been a ‘hub’ for most of the Western weapons that are going to Kiev regime.

 

Now, Poland is in a process of modernization to replace the old Soviet material given. It is putting in orders with U.S. and South Korean defense companies.

 

“Recently the Polish-Ukrainian relationship has seen strains due to a trade dispute centered on Ukrainian grain entering the Polish market and driving down the prices Polish farmers can get. Amid the spat Poland’s Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said his country was no longer sending any more weapons to Ukraine.

 

The comment created some confusion. Analysts noted that Poland has already in fact given Ukraine most of what it has to give, and the statement was made ahead of a Polish election and did not mean much. But it also raised concerns that Western support for Ukraine could be weakening.”

 

U.S. officials have downplayed the spat, and praised Poland’s role in helping Ukraine.

 

State Department: “In addition to its central support role in facilitating international assistance to neighboring Ukraine, Poland has demonstrated its ironclad commitment to strengthening regional security through its robust investments in defense spending,”

 

Poland is now on the road to spend 4% of its budget on defense this year — that is, twice the mark set by NATO.

 

The loan to Poland comes right as a scandal broke in a new report published by the Government Accountability Office, showing how inspections of 12 military installations found squalid conditions, ‘confirming complaints made by many service members for many years’.

 

The report detailed grotesque conditions that some of the American troops face: mold, sewage, brown water, bedbugs and even squatters.

JPMorgan Settles Jeffrey Epstein Case For $75 Million, Avoiding Trial

 

JPMorgan Chase has agreed to pay the US Virgin Islands (USVI) a scant $75 million to settle a lawsuit alleging that the bank knowingly aided Jeffrey Epstein's underage sex-trafficking operation, ending a legal battle that exposed all sorts of embarrassing ties between the bank and the dead pedophile.

 

The settlement was reached one month before the sides were scheduled to go to trial in Manhattan, where the USVI sought $190 million from the bank.

 

JPMorgan admitted no wrongdoing in the settlement.

 

Earlier this month we learned that JPMorgan flagged over $1 billion in suspicious transactions linked to Epstein, which they claimed to have reported to the US government, according to a filing by the USVI.

 

"JPMorgan was a full-service bank for Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking," said Mimi Liu, an attorney for the USVI, which said that the enormous sum bolsters key allegations in their legal action against the bank. According to the lawsuit, JPMorgan knowingly benefited from Epstein's wrongdoing, Bloomberg reports, noting that this is the first time in the case that the 'sheer volume of Epstein's financial activity at JPMorgan over a 16-year period has been disclosed.'

 

The suspicious activity was detailed in a 2019 filing to the US Department of Treasury, according to the lawsuit. The report was made after Epstein died in a Manhattan jail cell a month after his arrest on sex trafficking charges. Epstein had been with the bank from the late 1990s through 2013, when they finally cut ties with him.

 

Epstein notoriously trafficked some of his victims to a private island in the USVI.

 

JPMorgan denies that it let Epstein's activities slide, and says it reported around 150 cash transactions to a federal regulator between 2002 and 2013.

Russian Black Sea Commander Seen In Video The Day After Ukraine Said It Killed Him

 

On Monday Ukraine’s Special Operations Forces announced in a Telegram post that "the commander" of the Black Sea Fleet was among 34 officers killed in last Friday's attack on the fleet’s headquarters in Sevastopol. The fleet's commander is Viktor Sokolov. The statement claimed that he was killed, and that there were additionally "dozens of dead and wounded occupants, including the senior leadership of the fleet."

 

But on Tuesday Russian television aired fresh images of Viktor Sokolov attending a meeting of military leaders, the day after Ukraine announced he supposedly died. "In video and photographs released by the Russian defense ministry and shown on state television on Tuesday, Sokolov is seen taking part in a video conference with Defense Minister Sergey Shoigu and other top admirals and army chiefs," Al Jazeera writes.

Pennsylvania State Lawmakers Were Paid $25 Million in Salary for 50 Days of Session

 

According to the Inquirer, Pennsylvania has the largest full-time legislature in the country with 253 members of the state House and Senate. This is substantially more than states with similar populations, like Illinois, which only has 177 legislators.

 

They are also some of the best-paid legislators, with all members making at least $100,000 per year. Only two other states, California and New York, pay their legislators over $100,000 per year. New York and California both have a higher cost of living.

Reading Rainbow’s LeVar Burton Claims Blocking Children’s Access to Explicit Books is ‘White Supremacy’

 

Reading Rainbow’s LeVar Burton has signed a letter with 175 other artists denouncing efforts to block children’s access to sexually explicit books as “white supremacy.”

 

Other signatories of the letter include the usual suspects, such as Bravo’s Andy Cohen, Alyssa Milano, Ariana Grande, Bill Nye, Chelsea Handler, Judd Apatow, Judy Blume, Mark Ruffalo, Zooey Deschanel, and Ron Perlman.

 

The campaign is being run by far-left organization MoveOn.

 

“Far-right politicians like Ron DeSantis are championing draconian laws to ban books and the teaching of accurate multicultural American history in favor of upholding a homophobic, transphobic, and white supremacist vision of our nation,” the group’s website states.

 

The letter states, “This restrictive behavior is not just antithetical to free speech and expression but has a chilling effect on the broader creative field. The government cannot and should not create any interference or dictate what people can produce, write, generate, read, listen to, or consume.”

 

“We cannot stress enough how these censorious efforts will not end with book bans. It’s only a matter of time before regressive, suppressive ideologues will shift their focus toward other forms of art and entertainment, to further their attacks and efforts to scapegoat marginalized communities, particularly BIPOC and LGBTQ+ folks,” the letter continues. “We refuse to remain silent as one creative field is subjected to oppressive bans. As artists, we must band together, because a threat to one form of art is a threat to us all.”

 

The letter concludes by saying, “We are calling on everyone to join us in pushing back against these book bans, support free and open creative industries—regardless of personal or ideological disagreements—and use their voice at the local level to stop these bans in their school districts. There is power in artistic freedom, and we refuse to allow draconian politicians to take that from us.”

 

Burton also wrote his own statement about the letter, saying, “It’s embarrassing that we are banning books in this country, in this culture, in this day and age. And it’s dangerous that a handful of individuals are deciding that any book with Black and queer people is divisive. I’m proud to be surrounded by hundreds of artists and millions of MoveOn members who are solidly against this type of censorship. We are calling on everyone to join us in raising their voices to uphold artistic freedom, embrace multicultural history, and put a stop once and for all to book bans.”

 

Burton has previously urged children to read banned books, saying on The Daily Show in 2002 that “that’s where the good stuff is.”

Tech CEO Pava LaPere, 26, found dead with blunt-force trauma inside her apartment

 

A female tech CEO who appeared on the Forbes 30 under 30 list has been found dead in her Baltimore apartment with blunt-force trauma after being reported missing.

 

Pava LaPere, 26, was found inside her luxury Mount Vernon apartment by police Monday morning shortly after she was reported missing.

 

The EcoMap founder was found with blunt-force trauma, according to police.

 

The medical examiner’s office “took possession of the victim’s body,” police said.

 

It is unknown whether LaPere had any guests over prior to her death. It appeared she was single on her social media pages.

 

“That’s pretty horrifying,” building tenant Chris McNees told CBS News Baltimore.

 

“I mean, just for that to happen anywhere in the city is obviously a bad thing, but it’s hard to imagine why this would happen specifically in this building.”

 

The Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree lived in the former Congress Hotel, which has since been renovated into apartments. One-bedroom apartments go for around $1,500 per month, according to the building’s management company Zahlco.

 

LaPere started her eco company from her dorm room at Johns Hopkins University. The purpose of her company is to make ecosystems information accessible to everyone along with “powerful technology to digitize ecosystems,” according to the company’s website.

 

“Whether you’re talking about a college alumni network or an entire industry, ecosystems are largely invisible. When ecosystems are invisible, they are inaccessible. When they are inaccessible, they are inequitable. When they are inequitable, they are inefficient. We’re making the invisible, visible so that all ecosystems can thrive,” it said.

 

LaPere’s company has managed to raise $7 million in funding in the last year and a half.

FTC and 17 States Sue Amazon Alleging Monopolistic Practices

 

Amazon finds itself in the crosshairs of the FTC and 17 states, facing accusations of engaging in illegal conduct and monopolistic practices within its online store and merchant services.

 

According to the FTC, “The complaint alleges that Amazon violates the law not because it is big, but because it engages in a course of exclusionary conduct that prevents current competitors from growing and new competitors from emerging. By stifling competition on price, product selection, quality, and by preventing its current or future rivals from attracting a critical mass of shoppers and sellers, Amazon ensures that no current or future rival can threaten its dominance. Amazon’s far-reaching schemes impact hundreds of billions of dollars in retail sales every year, touch hundreds of thousands of products sold by businesses big and small and affect over a hundred million shoppers.”

 

Amazon has evolved from a modest online bookseller to a sprawling conglomerate with significant stakes in retail, entertainment, and internet infrastructure with a market cap of more than $1.3 trillion. The company’s extensive marketplace, popular with consumers for its diverse product range and swift delivery services, has been a focal point of its power, impacting merchants globally and even influencing the operational dynamics of the U.S. Postal Service.

 

The states that have joined the FTC lawsuit include: Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, New Hampshire, New Mexico, Nevada, New York, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin.

 

Breitbart News has reported extensively on the investigations into how Amazon treats sellers that use the platform. As early as 2019, regulators were talking to sellers who were impacted by Amazon’s policies:

 

Bloomberg states that the nature of the current inquiries imply that the FTC is performing a sweeping investigation of Amazon’s business rather than responding to complaints on a case by case basis. Michael Kades, who spent 20 years at the FTC stated: “Early in an investigation, that’s a sign of staff doing a serious job. They’re spending lots of time with witnesses and trying to really understand what they’re saying.”

 

Jennifer Rie, an analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence who specializes in antitrust litigation, commented on the investigation stating: “They’re trying to learn as much as they can about the industry from people who aren’t the target of their investigation. They’re in a background phase.” Chris McCabe, a former Amazon employee who now runs a service which helps Amazon merchants stated: “These conversations are going to keep happening. I’ve had several people ask me how to go to the FTC. I give them an email, and the FTC is taking their calls.”

 

Despite the intensifying scrutiny, Amazon continues to expand its empire, generating more than $500 billion in annual revenue and acquiring companies like One Medical, iRobot, and Metro-Goldwyn Mayer, further solidifying its presence in various sectors including online retail, cloud computing, and streaming services.

NYC to pay over $1 billion in hotel costs for migrants

 

New York City is bracing for the impact of the continuing illegal immigrant crisis, with an extended contract deal with local hotels to house migrants over the next three years at a significant cost of over $1 billion.

 

According to The New York Post, the revised contract, with a value of approximately $1.365 billion, is set to cover the rental charges for over 100 hotels repurposed into emergency shelters for migrants over the next three years. The new cost is about five times the cost of the city’s original hotel contract for housing migrants.

 

The $1.365 billion contract also does not cover expenses associated with city facilities or other sites accommodating the steady influx of homeless illegal immigrants in New York City.

 

The city’s move is under scrutiny, with claims of fiscal recklessness being voiced from both Republicans and Democrats, raising questions about the best path forward for New York City.

 

Nicole Gelinas, Senior Fellow at The Manhattan Institute, expressed concerns over the long-term extension, suggesting it might give an impression of a lack of intent to decrease the migrant populace.

 

“The city created one big monopoly,” Gelinas argued, pointing out the absence of competitive bids, which might have resulted in cost savings.

 

Democrat Queens Councilman Robert Holden stated, “The migrant crisis has evolved into a financial boondoggle, with quietly extended contracts fattening the pockets of a few at the taxpayer’s expense. It’s time to halt this fiscal recklessness.”

 

Holden also called into question NYC’s “Right to Shelter” law, which ensures shelter to the homeless, including self-described asylum seekers. The Democrat councilman warned that the “Right to Shelter” law should not be “misconstrued as a global entitlement.”

Drug shortages reported at 96% of U.S. pharmacies as Big Pharma’s supply chain begins to fail

 

The Pharmacy Technician Certification Board (PTCB) conducted a survey recently which found that 96 percent of pharmacy technicians across the country are reporting shortages of what are considered "essential" pharmaceutical drugs.

 

Everything from chemotherapy and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) drugs to weight loss medications and everything in between is currently in short supply due to lingering supply chain problems stemming from the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) "pandemic."

 

"Drug shortages are affecting many areas of pharmacy practice, such as retail, compounding and hospitals," said Anthony Longo, a doctor of pharmacy and director of pharmacy at Northwell Long Island Jewish Forest Hills in Queens, New York.

 

 

Eventually, the drug supply will run completely dry – then what?

 

In nine out of 10 cases, surveyed technicians indicated that they offer substitute drugs whenever possible, though nearly half of the time, around 45 percent, patients still end up leaving the pharmacy without their needed medications.

 

This can be particularly devastating for patients with cancer and other serious illnesses that require steady and regular treatment. When they are unable to get their prescribed drugs, patients are increasingly turning to alternatives, which can be really good or really bad, depending on what that entails.

 

When no alternative drug exists, nearly one in three pharmacy technicians resorts to in-house compounding, meaning they mix drugs themselves to come up with something that patients can use. Just six percent of pharmacy technicians seek out external pharmacies to fill missing prescriptions.

 

"In-house compounding of drugs refers to the practice of preparing customized medications within a healthcare facility, such as a hospital, pharmacy, or medical clinic, rather than obtaining commercially available medications," explains The Epoch Times.

 

In some cases, desperate pharmacy technicians are collaborating with other pharmacy teams to try to seek out other ways of getting the drugs they need.

 

"We run weekly shortage calls as a system to address shortages," one said in a statement.

 

Another indicated in the survey that some pharmacy technicians and their teams are even going so far as to contact drug representatives to try to locate missing medications for their patients.

 

"It's no surprise that pharmacy technicians are actively working on solutions to mitigate drug shortages for their patients," said PTCB CEO William Schimmel in a statement.

 

"I'm impressed by the spirit of collaboration, even outside of the pharmacy where they work."

 

Further compounding the problem is the fact that there is also a nationwide shortage of pharmacy technicians. Persistent staffing shortages combined with persistent drug shortages is creating "an unsustainable reality for the entire health care system," Schimmel warned.

 

The PTCB survey findings reflect those of a similar survey conducted by the American Society of Health System Pharmacists (ASHP), which is now recommending policy solutions that target what it says are the key drivers of generic drug shortages: quality control, supply chain disruptions, and extreme price competition.

 

"This issue requires quick action from Congress to address the underlying causes of shortages and ensure patients have the medications they need," said ASHP CEO Paul W. Abramowitz in a statement.

 

In the comments, numerous readers pointed out that this may actually be a good thing in the long run because nearly all prescription drugs come with "dramatic side effects," wrote one, rendering them not worth using.

 

"Veterinary drug shortages are involved, too," wrote another about how many animal medicines are also in seriously short supply, putting people's pets at risk.

For Egypt, Menendez Was Key to Access to Billions in U.S. Aid

 

After decades as one of the world’s largest recipients of United States foreign aid, the Egyptian government was nervous about how long the largess would continue at that level. But when the United States cut a sliver of the aid in 2017 over Egypt’s grim human rights record, stunning Cairo, Egyptian officials found an ally in Senator Robert J. Menendez of New Jersey.

 

He happened to be the top-ranking Democrat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, a position that Egypt evidently felt could help its footing in Washington. And even as he accused the Trump administration of being lax when it came to Egypt, prosecutors say he was doing favors for Egyptian officials who had gotten to know him through his then-girlfriend — signing off on arms sales and secretly helping it lobby Washington to release funding.

 

In return, according to a federal indictment of Mr. Menendez unsealed on Friday, Mr. Menendez and his wife, Nadine Menendez, received hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash, checks and bars of gold.

 

It was a price that Egyptian officials clearly felt was worth paying.

 

Since the late 1970s, Washington has sent Cairo up to $1.3 billion each year as a legacy of Egypt’s peace agreement with Israel in the Camp David Accords — money that Egypt treasures as a sign of its strategic importance, and which has paid for its ever-growing military arsenal.

 

For Egypt, the United States is an indispensable patron, one that it constantly tries to convince of its value on issues like terrorism, security for Israel and migration to Europe. Sitting in the southeastern Mediterranean on Israel’s western border, it paints itself as an island of stability in a turbulent region that includes Sudan and Libya.

 

Egypt’s strategic hand also includes the Suez Canal, which is crucial to world trade, and liquid-natural-gas facilities that send energy to Europe. And in a reflection of Egyptian recognition that American aid is not guaranteed, Egypt has successfully played the United States against its rivals by pursuing arms or business deals with Russia and China.

 

Successive administrations in Washington have bought Egypt’s argument, approving all but $85 million of its $1.3 billion package this year. Although Egypt is not the only undemocratic state that receives American aid, the package has especially incensed rights advocates, members of Congress and other critics who question why the United States is supporting an authoritarian, corruption-riddled regime.

Hundreds dead from dengue fever in war-torn Sudan: medics

 

Outbreaks of dengue fever and acute watery diarrhoea have "killed hundreds" in war-torn Sudan, medics reported on Monday, warning of "catastrophic spreads" that could overwhelm the country's decimated health system.

 

In a statement, the Sudanese doctors' union warned that the health situation in the southeastern state of Gedaref, on the border with Ethiopia, "is deteriorating at a horrific rate", with thousands infected with dengue fever.

 

Although Gedaref has been spared the direct effects of the brutal war between the regular army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF), it has nonetheless been impacted by mass displacement and other humanitarian crises.

 

More than five months into the war, 80 percent of the hospitals in Sudan are out of service, according to the United Nations.

 

Even before the war, the fragile healthcare system struggled to contain the annual disease outbreaks that accompany the country's rainy season starting in June, including malaria endemic in Sudan and dengue fever.

 

This year, with Gedaref hosting upwards of 250,000 internally displaced persons according to the UN, the situation is much worse.

 

"The hospital's beds are all full but the cases keep coming in, particularly children," a medical source told AFP from Gedaref Hospital, requesting anonymity out of concern for his safety.

 

"But the number of those receiving treatment at home are much more than those at the hospital," he said.

 

Gedaref resident Amal Hussein told AFP that "in each home, there are at least three people sick with dengue".

 

Dengue is a mosquito-borne disease that causes high fever, headaches, nausea, vomiting, muscle pain and, in the most serious cases, bleeding that can lead to death.

 

Medics and the UN have repeatedly warned that the violence in Sudan, combined with the rainy season and devastated infrastructure, would cause disease outbreaks.

 

More than 1,200 children have died in refugee camps since May, due in part to a measles outbreak, according to the UN refugee agency.

 

  • 'Disaster is knocking' -

 

In El Fasher, the capital of North Darfur state, "13 cases of malaria were reported in one week", the health ministry said.

 

In Khartoum, "three people died of acute watery diarrhoea" suspected cases of cholera in the Hajj Youssef district in the east of the capital, the local resistance committee said on Monday.

 

"Take precautions to avoid infection," urged the committee – one of many that used to organise pro-democracy demonstrations before the war and that now volunteers to help those caught in the crossfire.

 

Health crises have compounded the dire humanitarian situation in Sudan, where half of the population of 48 million relies on aid to survive and with six million on the brink of starvation, according to the UN.

 

Clementine Nkweta-Salami, the UN's humanitarian representative in Sudan, warned on Monday that "disaster is knocking on the door in Sudan".

 

She urged "donors to immediately disburse pledged funds to sustain life-saving humanitarian aid".

Photos show Ambassador Yovanovitch met twice with Burisma official after being told firm was corrupt

 

Yovanovitch previously called Burisma and Hunter Biden not “a front burner issue” during her time as ambassador.

 

Photos deleted from the now-defunct Burisma Holdings website show former U.S. Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch met with Vadim Pozharskyi—the Burisma official who worked closely with Hunter Biden—at two separate events after she had been told the Ukrainian energy company was considered corrupt by the State Department.

 

The photos are likely to raise fresh questions about parts of Yovanovitch's testimony to Congress during former President Donald Trump’s first impeachment. It also raises the question of why the U.S. embassy in Ukraine engaged with company representatives in a public relations campaign with the U.S. government at the same time that internal embassy communications focused on the company’s corruption.

 

Photos obtained from the now-deleted Burisma website and the U.S.-Ukraine Business Council (USUBC) show that Yovanovitch attended two meetings hosted by the USUBC in Kyiv with Vadim Pozharskyi, the Burisma executive who met with then-Vice President Joe Biden and appears frequently in Hunter Biden's emails.

 

The Burisma website also referenced one other meeting, though no photos were provided. Pozharksyi—the corporate secretary who ran the day to day operations with the board of the company—was at the epicenter of Burisma’s public relations campaign to close down investigations into the company by former Ukraine Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin.

 

Yovanovitch testified at Trump’s first impeachment because she served as the U.S. ambassador to Ukraine when Trump made the infamous phone call to the newly inaugurated Ukrainian President, Volodymr Zelensky.

 

In her October 2019 testimony as part of the first Trump impeachment inquiry, Yovanovitch told congressional investigators that Burisma—and Hunter Biden’s role with the company—was not a focus during her time at the embassy.

 

At a November 7, 2017 gathering, Yovanovitch "commented on the recent developments in U.S.-Ukraine relations and emphasized the need for consistent efforts in implementing key reforms" in the country, according to the event page posted by the USUBC. The ambassador also addressed Ukraine’s anti-corruption efforts and reform in the energy sector. The panel, which included Pozharksyi (pictured far left), answered questions from business leaders in a roundtable format.

 

According to a post about the event on Burisma's now-defunct website, Pozharskyi praised U.S. efforts to "increase the amount of energy produced in Ukraine" through its approximately $60 million in aid and positioned his company as a key player in Ukraine’s aspirations for energy independence.

 

Yovanovitch also met with Pozharskyi at least two other times at separate USUBC events, one in December 2016 and another in April 2017, according to two posts on Burisma's website, obtained via internet archives. Both meetings focused on Ukraine’s energy security and independence as well as the broader economic reforms that the U.S. embassy was promoting in the country.

Russian Bombs, Missiles, Drones Pounding Ukrainian Military Infrastructure

 

On the night of September 26, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation launched another wave of massive strikes with kamikaze drones and missiles throughout Ukraine. According to the official data published by the Air Force of Ukraine, Ukrainian air defenses shot down 26 Russian UAVs out of 38 that targeted the Ukrainian territory. Kiev decided not to declare that all targets were destroyed, as it did before, but the data of the Ukrainian military also does not correspond to reality. Major damage to Ukrainian military and infrastructure facilities was confirmed in different regions. The attacks ere carried out both by drones and missiles, which Kiev is silent about in its reports.

 

The Odessa region, where the Kiev regime attempts to coordinate its own save corridor for export of its grain, remains one of the most often targeted regions in Ukraine. Last night was no exception. Russian forces launched another wave of strikes on the Ukrainian port infrastructure on the Danube river. The town of Reni, which is currently used as a major Ukrainian hub, came under fire. Ыщьу warehouses and several dozens of trucks were destroyed. Large explosions thundered in the port. Russian UAVs also struck the Orlovka — Isakcha ferry crossing used for the export of Ukrainian grain and supply of foreign weapons to the war-torn country. As a result of hte attack, the operation of the Orlovka checkpoint was suspended.

 

Since Kiev prohibited its citizens to film Russian attacks to hide the damage, footage of explosions in the Odessa region is provided by the Romanians :

 

Another important target that was struck on the evening of September 25 is the Kulbakino airfield in the Mykolaiv region. Footage from the Russian reconnaissance UAV, which provided coordination of the attack, confirmed the destruction of at least one MiG-29 fighter of the Ukrainian Air Force. This is the third such aircraft, destruction of which was confirmed in the last few days by footage from Ukrainian airfields. Two other aircraft of this type were hit at the Dolgintsevo airfield near Krivoy Rog. The Soviet MiG-29 was upgraded for the American JDAM and HARM missiles.

 

‘The Russian aerospace forces destroyed a Mig-29 fighter of the Ukrainian Air Force at the Kulbakino airfield in the Mykolaiv region’ – the Russian Ministry of Defense confirmed the successful attack.

 

Huge fire was reported in the region last night. According to some reports, it was the result of the Russian strikes on a large fuel depot on the outskirts of the city, near the airfield.

South Carolina Professor finds 200 billion pieces of DNA contaminating a single dose of Pfizer's COVID injection

 

This DNA, in my view, it could be causing some of the rare, but serious, side effects like death from cardiac arrest.

 

"This DNA can and likely will integrate into the genomic DNA of cells that got transfected with the vaccine mix … we do this in the lab all the time; we take pieces of DNA, we mix them up with a lipid complex like the Pfizer vaccine is in, we pour it onto cells and a lot of it gets into the cells. And a lot of it gets into the DNA of those cells and it becomes a permanent fixture of the cell. It's not just a temporary thing. It is in that cell from now on and all of its progeny from now on and forever more … So, that's why I'm kind of alarmed about this DNA being in the vaccine. It's different from RNA because it can be permanent."

This war isn't about Nazis. It's about Zionist world supremacy.

 

MOSCOW – Russian President Vladimir Putin earlier this month let loose a fresh tirade against Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, who is Jewish and many of whose relatives were killed by the Nazis.

 

"The Western masters," Putin told Russian television, growing visibly angry, "put a person at the head of modern Ukraine an ethnic Jew, with Jewish roots, with Jewish origins" to cover up "the anti-human essence that is the foundation … of the modern Ukrainian state" and "the glorification of Nazism."

World Economic Forum with John Kerry’s Daughter Vanessa Suggests Using “Emotion” from Pandemic and “Storytelling” To Advance Climate Crisis Narrative

 

Biden Climate Czar John Kerry’s daughter Vanessa Kerry has clearly learned a great deal about manipulating the public from dear old dad.

 

Vanessa, the World Health Organization’s special envoy for climate change, spoke on a World Economic Forum panel to discuss how to successfully prey on the public’s fear and emotions following the pandemic to push the “climate crisis” narrative.

 

World Economic Forum agenda contributor Jemilah Mahmood also spoke on the panel.

 

Mahmood: The pandemic was an opportunity, I think all over the world, people realize how important health was…..how now do we take that emotion…of the health factors so critical but guess what guys, the climate crisis is creating more health issues than you can ever imagine, but no one has been able to make that link in the past.

 

I think we are living in an age now, a time now, were we need to grasp this opportunity and work together and really build on that, right?

 

Kerry: And I want to ask you a question about that for a moment though…because you’re right…I feel the same way about Covid taught us all these lessons learned and we should be incorporating that….and the climate crisis is going to be so much worse.

 

But I believe we were talking a little before we started the panel that people have forgotten….

 

Mahmood: People have forgotten.

 

Kerry: …that people have forgotten and don’t care. How do we keep that front and center?

 

(Crosstalk)

 

Mahmood: Absolutely right and we were just talking about it earlier ‘have people have forgotten about Covid?’

 

So I think it’s about the storytelling element. I think that a lot of the things we see on health are very doom and gloom very very much, even on the climate issue, right, the extent that people feel ‘I can’t deal with this anymore …I can’t do this.’

 

But telling, you know, really inspiring stories about what is possible if we work together.

Tasmania's commission of inquiry into child sexual abuse finds children 'disbelieved' and failed by state institutions

 

In short: Tasmania's commission of inquiry examined the responses of the government institutions to allegations of child sexual abuse dating back more than 20 years.

In some cases, abusers in schools, hospitals and in the out-of-home care system were left to prey upon children after failures to take action.

The 3,500-page report has recommended significant changes to the way child sexual abuse allegations are reported and handled.

What's next? The closing of the state's troubled youth detention centre as soon as possible is just one of the 191 recommendations that the premier has said he will accept in full.

 

Tasmania's children have been abused in the government's institutions — from hospitals to schools — and failed by a state response that has "too often been inadequate", a commission of inquiry has found.

 

Premier Jeremy Rockliff addressed parliament after the tabling of the long-awaited commission of inquiry report — a hefty document that makes 191 recommendations across eight volumes and 3,500 pages.

 

The moment is a turning point in the long road for justice for the many victim-survivors who have come forward to tell their stories of abuse at the hands of teachers, nurses, carers or others working within state institutions.
