Escobar: How Telegram Is Geopolitcs

 

From Trump to Crash Test Dummy, Hegemon’s “policies” have managed quite a feat.

It must have taken eons of Taoist patience for President Xi Jinping to tell a few self-evident facts of life to a mediocre imperial functionary such as U.S. National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan.

Unscrupulous NGOs Rake in Billions for Foreign Assistance

 

Between 2013 and 2022, 15 nonprofits each received over $1 billion from the federal government for foreign, nonmilitary projects, according to a new report from the Congressional Research Service.

 

Key facts: Six thousand non-governmental organizations, or NGOS, received grants and contracts from the U.S. Agency for International Development, but 20% of the money went to just 10 groups. Four of them are for-profit enterprises.

 

Almost $7 billion went to two particularly unworthy organizations.

 

Non-profit research group RTI International accepted $2.3 billion for humanitarian projects around the world, even though past reports have warned of issues with RTI’s spending.

 

Various audits from 2006 to 2014 claimed that RTI invented “fictional beneficiaries” to make an anti-malaria campaign seem more effective than it really was. They also sent computers to a Nicaraguan school that didn’t have electricity and billed the federal government for teacher salaries in Senegal that had already been paid, according to the audits.

 

Catholic Relief Services was the top recipient of federal money — $4.6 billion — singlehandedly accounting for more than half of the funds sent to faith-based organizations.

 

Six of their former board members were named by a Pennsylvania grand jury in 2019 for allowing sex abuse in the Catholic Church. Catholic Relief Services was also found guilty in 2022 of discriminating against a gay employee.

 

The federal government also sent $50 billion in foreign aid to groups whose names are redacted from public databases, according to the report. In total, Congress gave $66 billion in foreign assistance in FY2023.

‘I’m a whistleblower’: Trustee turns on Tiffany Henyard

 

Tiffany Henyard has enjoyed near-unanimous support on the Thornton Township board, but that’s now changing following a series of WGN Investigates’ reports on her spending.

 

“Today, I am breaking my silence and speaking out against Thornton Township Supervisor and Mayor of Dolton Tiffany Henyard, who I believe has engaged in unethical and predatory behavior throughout her tenure,” trustee Carmen Carlisle wrote in an emailed statement to WGN. “For the past two years, Henyard has manipulated employees, vendors, and residents, using her position to increase her influence, all while projecting a false image of success, funded by the hardworking taxpayers of Thornton Township and the Village of Dolton.”

 

Carlisle acknowledged at a recent board meeting that she rarely raised questions about lavish trips and other spending charged to township taxpayers.

 

“I trusted the administration,” Carlisle said on Aug. 15 while looking at Supervisor Henyard.

 

Carlisle and other township trustees then voted to put new restrictions on spending for special events and access to credit cards.

 

“I am standing up, not just for myself, but for others who have been affected by what I see as Henyard’s abusive leadership,” Carlisle’s statement said. “I believe there are many more victims who have been retaliated against, fired or lied to by Henyard, but have yet to speak out.”

 

Henyard ridiculed Carlisle’s new-found challenge at an August meeting.

 

“I think I’m going to get you a new nickname: ‘Lyin’ Carlisle,’” Henyard said in front of a packed audience. “I’m tired of everyone in here. There always has to be a show.”

 

In January, WGN Investigates reported Henyard and her entourage racked-up $67,000 in charges for trips to Portland, Austin, Atlanta and New York City in a five-month span. Carlisle was on at least one of the trips along with other trustees and township officials.

 

In Atlanta, the group stayed at the Four Seasons and brought home a bill of $9,347. However, WGN Investigates has learned the township spending is just the tip of the iceberg.

 

Watch WGN News at 9 p.m. Tuesday to see credit card charges billed to Dolton taxpayers that Henyard’s administration fought to keep hidden.

New Hampshire Supreme Court Rules Schools Can Keep Parents in the Dark About Their Children’s Gender Transitions

 

The New Hampshire Supreme Court has upheld a Manchester school district policy that allows schools to keep parents in the dark about their children’s gender transitions.

 

This ruling, which flies in the face of fundamental parenting rights, sends a dangerous message: that schools can prioritize the so-called “rights” of students over the rights of parents to know and participate in their children’s lives.

 

The court’s decision comes as part of the case Jane Doe v. Manchester School District, where the justices concluded that the policy does not infringe on parental rights.

 

The Doe v. Manchester School District involves a challenge to a policy implemented by the Manchester School District regarding the rights of transgender and gender-nonconforming students.

 

The plaintiff, known only as Jane Doe, who is the parent of a minor child (M.C.) enrolled in the district, argued that the district’s policy violated her constitutional rights as a parent by potentially allowing the school to withhold information about her child’s gender identity from her.

 

The policy in question allows students to keep their transgender status or gender nonconforming presentation private and requires school personnel to avoid disclosing this information to others, including parents, unless the student consents or it is legally required.

 

The plaintiff discovered that her child was being addressed by a name and pronouns different from those assigned at birth, which the school had not disclosed to her due to the policy.

 

The plaintiff’s lawsuit sought a declaratory judgment that the policy violated her constitutional rights, was beyond the school’s legal authority (ultra vires), and violated federal laws like the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and the Protection of Pupil Rights Act (PPRA).

Kamala Harris’s Campaign Claims It Has a ‘Digital Army’ of Over 175 Staffers.

 

Vice President Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign has deployed a massive digital operation, with over 175 staffers dedicated to flooding social media with pro-Harris, anti-Trump content.

 

What Axios referred to as her Gen Z “mobilization team” is at the heart of a strategy that prioritizes memes, online taunts, and TikTok trends over traditional political campaigning. Despite the aggressive tactics, Donald Trump has over twice as many TikTok followers as Harris and almost five times as many X (formerly Twitter) followers.

 

The Harris campaign’s focus on rapid response and real-time content creation has often allowed it to dominate fleeting, hyper-online conversations. But her reliance on inexperienced, “vibes-focused” staffers has also led to some embarrassment, with her latest video about making an incorrect collard greens recipe in her bathtub attracting a social media “ratio.”

 

“From palm trees and coconut emojis to Charlie XCX’s ‘brat’ endorsement, online memes supporting Vice President Harris have taken on a life of their own and have been adopted – with a wink and a nod – by our campaign account @KamalaHQ, which has more than tripled its following since the switch,” a campaign spokesman told Axios.But much like her in-person campaign activities, the digital domination appears to have waned since the Democratic National Convention, with many tiring of the “sneering” schtick.

Bank of England Staff Told to Share Pronouns and Use “Gender Neutral” Language

 

Bank of England staff have been told to share their pronouns at the start of meetings and use “gender neutral” language when speaking to customers. The Telegraph has the details.

 

Threadneedle Street employees were also advised that it is a “microaggression” to state that “everyone is born a man or a woman, it’s science”.

 

The lessons, delivered to staff as part of a “trans inclusion” training session, also encouraged the Bank of England to promote a “trans day of visibility”, a “trans day of remembrance” and a “trans awareness week”.

 

Toby Young, General Secretary of the Free Speech Union, has written to Andrew Bailey, the Bank of England’s Governor, about the training.

 

He told Mr. Bailey that “while fostering a sense of inclusion among employees is, of course, a worthwhile objective”, he believed that training courses like the one given to Bank staff are “ideologically driven”.

 

“As a result, they may have the unintended effect of fostering an intolerant workplace culture in which some employees feel they cannot express certain, perfectly legitimate points of view,” the letter said.

 

“Our primary concern is that the ‘Trans Inclusion’ course appears to promote gender identity ideology while stigmatising gender critical beliefs, which are protected under the Equality Act 2010.”

 

The FSU’s letter highlighted a part of the training that stated “using the wrong pronouns” is another example of a “microaggression”.

 

It also mentioned the section telling staff to use language such as “cisgender” to refer to an individual who identifies as the sex they were assigned at birth, or “Enby” to describe people who do not identify exclusively as a man or woman.

 

The Bank of England defended the training, with a spokesman saying: “Our objective is to ensure monetary and financial stability for the UK. We encourage a welcoming environment for our colleagues working hard to achieve this – as such, we offer inclusion training on an optional basis.”

 

Mr. Young said: “The Bank of England, like so many other pillars of the British establishment, has been infected by the woke mind virus.”

 

“This kind of training creates the impression that believing in the biological reality of sex is discriminatory, when in fact it’s a belief that’s protected by the Equality Act and the reality is that any employer punishing an employee for expressing such a view would themselves be guilty of discrimination.”

Berkeley Law School Dean: Constitution ‘Outdated,’ ‘Threatens the United States’

 

Berkeley Law School Dean Erwin Chemerinsky, promoting his very patriotic book “No Democracy Lasts Forever: How the Constitution Threatens the United States,” recently penned an op-ed and appeared on MSNBC to float the idea that we need to toss out the United States Constitution — arguably the most eloquent and functional if imperfect governing document ever written, which every Western nation has modeled their own on — and replace it with something a little more Democratic™.

 

Here the psychopathic cross-eyed nerd — who would be the first to go in the kind of French Revolution-style chaos he’s fomenting, like Piggy in Lord of the Flies — explains.

 

Via Los Angeles Times (emphasis added):

 

“No matter the outcome of the November elections, it is urgent that there be a widespread recognition that American democracy is in danger and that reforms are essential. No form of government lasts forever, and it would be foolhardy to believe that the United States cannot fall prey to the forces that have ended democracies in many other countries.

 

Although the causes are complex, many of today’s problems can be traced back to choices made in drafting the Constitution, choices that are increasingly haunting us. After 200 years, it is time to begin thinking of drafting a new Constitution to create a more effective, more democratic government.

 

Signs abound that American democracy is in serious trouble. Confidence in the institutions of American government is at an all-time low. The Pew Research Center has been tracking public trust in government since 1958. It has gone from a high-water mark of 77% in 1964 to our contemporary 20%.* A poll in September 2023 indicated that only 4% of U.S. adults said the American political system worked “extremely or very well.” A recent Gallup poll had only 16% of Americans expressing approval for how Congress is performing its job.

 

Especially individuals in their 20s and 30s are losing faith in democracy. A Brookings Institution study found that 29% of “young Americans say that democracy is not always preferable to other political forms.””

UPDATED: NOT STATE GUARD, FEDERAL TROOPS ! ! ! ! Reports: New York Deploying National Guard for Trump Sentencing on Sept 18 - CLAIM Trump to be IMPRISONED that day - Fear Riots to ensue

 

Word came from a federal law enforcement source saying New York State Judge Juan Merchan, whose daughter collected hundreds-of-thousands of dollars in political consulting work from Democrats during the Trump Trial, will order Trump taken to jail at the Sentencing on September 18. Trump will reportedly be taken to Riker's Island jail at that time.

 

Additional claims from that same federal law enforcement source say New York City Mayor Eric Adams, and New York Governor Kathy Hochul, fear that New York Police will engage in a "Sick Out" on that date, because all the police officers KNOW the trial was a complete sham, they want no part in persecuting Trump.

Big Tech liable for breaking promises to users that led to suicide, death threats: appeals court

 

Ninth Circuit rejects 'free-wheeling' Section 230 immunity for Snapchat-integrated anonymous messaging app with 10 million users, overseen by 10 staff, that promised to ban and unmask users for bad behavior.

 

Days before the Philadelphia-based 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals sent Big Tech lawyers scrambling by upending three decades of judicial precedents on Section 230 immunity from liability, its West Coast counterpart warned platforms their immunity had limits, too.

 

While far smaller in scope than the 3rd Circuit's ruling that TikTok could be held liable for a little girl's death by algorithmically recommending the video she fatally copied, likely to provoke Supreme Court intervention, the 9th Circuit ruling Aug. 22 against third-party Snapchat app developer Yolo also suggests judges are growing skeptical of maximalist views of the 1996 law.

 

Both cases stem from minors who died following their use of the apps – 10-year-old Nylah Anderson by asphyxiation from participating in TikTok's "Blackout Challenge," and 16-year-old Carson Bride by suicide after sustained cyberbullying through Yolo, which lets Snapchat users "ask public questions and send and receive anonymous responses," the 9th Circuit said.

 

The primary difference is the 3rd Circuit withheld immunity for TikTok's design – algorithmic recommendation – while the 9th Circuit faulted Yolo's promises to users but approved immunity for its anonymous design.

 

While the misrepresentation claims against Yolo are going forward, the 9th Circuit panel emphasized the opinion does not "expand liability for internet companies or make all violations of their own terms of service into actionable claims," but also does not "create a free-wheeling immunity for tech companies that is not enjoyed by other players in the economy."

 

The San Francisco-based appeals court struck down legislative regulation of tech design the week before the Yolo ruling, upholding part of a preliminary injunction against California's two-year-old Age-Appropriate Design Code Act.

 

Intended to ensure the design of online products "likely to be accessed by children" recognizes their "distinct needs," the law likely "facially violates" the First Amendment by requiring covered businesses to "opine on and mitigate the risk that children may be exposed to harmful or potentially harmful materials," according to the Democratic nominee-majority panel.

 

Yolo's terms of service promised users "it would reveal the identities of, and ban, anyone who engaged in bullying or harassing behavior" but it "never did so, and may have never intended to," for Bride or three other anonymous minors who are plaintiffs along with Bride's mother, according to the Aug. 22 ruling.

 

Two days after Kristin Bride sued Yolo, which had already drawn many negative Apple App Store reviews as a haven for bullying and harassment, Snapchat owner Snap cut off Yolo integration and later banned all anonymous messaging apps.

 

Yolo marketed itself "mainly" toward teenagers and quickly surged to the top of download charts, letting users respond to others' public questions and polls without divulging any "identifying data," the 9th Circuit said.

The "savior" of Argentina just stole the entire gold reserve of the nation

 

Transferred 1.5 billion in gold to his bosses in London

 

"I say stole, because Argentines are saying it, for to remove the entire gold reserve without the consent of the nation is a theft; and clearly this action is indefensible, because if you promised to get the nation out of debt, you certainly are obliged not only not to take on more loans, but to not give up the nation's gold reserve to secure more loans. Instead, Javier Milei could have issued gold back notes and gradually replaced the worthless currency of Argentina with real money, thus saving the economy and giving the people a way out of the endless cycle of inflation which has robbed them of their savings, salaries and wealth. Now, however, Argentina is stripped entirely bare and will become the total plaything of international banksters."

Lyon was 14 when Lolita was made in 1962. This movie was written and directed by Jews. How did it and Woody Allen's Manhatten slip under the pedophile radar???
