West silences activists at home while promoting rights abroad – report

Democratic governments suppress protests at home but preach human rights abroad, Climate Rights International has said

The 70-page report entitled “On Thin Ice: Disproportionate Responses to Climate Change Protesters in Democratic Countries”

According to the study, the drastic steps taken by governments in nations perceived as democratic include lengthy prison terms, preventive detention, and intimidation and harassment online and in the media.

“Governments too often take such a strong and principled view about the right to peaceful protest in other countries – but when they don’t like certain kinds of protests at home they pass laws and deploy the police to stop them,” the executive director of Climate Rights International, Brad Adams, told The Guardian.

Biggest Ukrainian Drone Attack Of War Hits Moscow International Airport, Unleashes Panic

A Ukrainian drone swarm sent against Russia is being widely seen as one of the largest single drone attacks from Ukraine of the war, if not the biggest. Early on Tuesday drones slammed into regions across Russia, including reaching the capital of Moscow.

One Russian woman was killed when a drone directly hit her apartment complex just outside Moscow. The drone smashed into a 17-floor high rise where her residence was, and significant damage was later seen to the 10th through 12th floors where the woman's residence was. Several others were injured in the early dark hours drone assault.

UK starts releasing thousands of prisoners early – media

The emergency measure is aimed at averting a “disaster” amid a jail overcrowding crisis, the justice secretary has said

UK prisons have begun releasing offenders early as part of a government scheme to deal with jail overcrowding across the country, according to media reports. The plan will reportedly see 5,500 people receive early release in September and October alone.

Over 1,700 convicts are set to be let out on Tuesday in England and Wales, where the prison population hit an all-time high of 88,521 last week.

Report: Over 140,000 in Wisconsin Can Vote Without ID in 2024 Through Loophole

A loophole in Wisconsin election laws poses a significant risk to election integrity, a report finds.

More than 140,000 Wisconsinites can vote in the 2024 election without proving their identify by self-identifying as “Indefinitely Confined,” a new report by the Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty reveals. Through the loophole, voters can receive an absentee ballot indefinitely without ever showing an ID.

The “Indefinitely Confined” exception has skyrocketed since 2016, when approximately 66,000 voters registered under the status. In 2020 amid the pandemic, 265,979 registered under the exemption, when clerks in Democratic strongholds encouraged voters to exploit the loophole to circumvent Wisconsin’s voter ID requirements in 2020 – a practice later rebuked unanimously by the Supreme Court.

Joe Biden defeated Donald Trump in the state by just over 20,000 votes, in a swing of around 48,000 votes to Democrats from the 2016 election when Trump carried the state.

“Confidence in our elections continues to be dangerously low in Wisconsin and across the country,” WILL Research Director Will Flanders said in a statement. “Voter ID is a popular and well-executed way to keep our elections secure and free of fraud. While the Governor refused to fix this loophole in the years since 2020, efforts must be made by local election clerks to resolve it as much as possible.”

Wisconsin voter ID laws require citizens to show ID to vote in most circumstances. However, ID is not required simply to register to vote.

The “Indefinitely Confined” exception provides a loophole for potential voters to avoid ever showing an ID.

“The indefinitely confined status was designed to provide those who are elderly, sick, or physically unable to get to the polls with an opportunity to vote,” WILL Policy Director Kyle Koenen added. “Although designed with good intentions, as our report shows, the system has a few key flaws that should be resolved.”

State laws require the removal of voters from the indefinitely confined list under specified circumstances. According to WILL, “if a voter does not return an absentee ballot after receiving one, the municipal clerk must notify them that they will be removed from the absentee mailing list unless they renew their application within 30 days. Voters can also be removed upon their request or if reliable information indicates they are no longer eligible, such as when a voter casts a ballot in person.”

However, not all counties comply with state law, WILL alleges. The number of voters using the exemption remains about 144,347.

Polls show Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris neck-and-neck in Wisconsin less than two months from Election Day.

Google Growth Strategist Exposes Google’s Search Engine Manipulation for Kamala Harris Campaign, Revenue-Driven Political Bias

"Google was essentially promoting through its ads rhetoric that was very pro-Kamala,” admits Dakota Leazer (@dakotaleazer), a Growth Strategist at

@Google

, during an undercover date with an OMG American Swiper journalist. Leazer reveals that Google has been actively coordinating with the Kamala Harris campaign, manipulating its search engine advertisements to favor her in the 2024 election. He explains, “It seemed to link out to legitimate news publication sites. So, it seemed like it was an ad from PBS, but it was really an ad for the Kamala campaign,” making users believe they were reading unbiased reports from reputable sources.

Leazer also confesses that Google’s primary objective is to generate ad revenue through fear-based content, explaining, “I think whatever demographic is most fearful is going to be most profitable.” According to Leazer, the left currently represents the most fearful demographic, which is why Google has been pushing pro-Kamala narratives for profit, explaining “I think right now the left is more fearful than the right is.”

He further states, “It's all about the share of the stock price,” revealing that Google’s liberal bias is not just political, but tied to financial gain. He adds, “I think Google has a belief that one side will allow them to make more money,” revealing Google’s profit motives through driving political manipulation.

Leazer’s admission mirrors past media motives, including CNN Technical Director Charlie Chester’s claim that “fear sells,” reinforcing the role of big tech and media in shaping public perception through fear and bias.

USDA colluding with China to build bird flu BIOWEAPON with gain-of-function research

The United States government is once again colluding with communist China to build a deadly bioweapon, this time from circulating strains of avian flu.

The White Coat Waste Project (WCW Project) recently obtained Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) documents showing that U.S. taxpayer money is being funneled to a Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) laboratory on mainland China that is tampering with bird flu through highly controversial gain-of-function research.

Before the proof came out, career politician Tom Vilsack, who currently holds the title of secretary of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), lied under oath by claiming that the U.S. is not colluding with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to build more deadly bioweapons.

Back in March during an exchange with Congressman Ben Cline, Vilsack vehemently denied any notion of "collaboration" taking place between the CCP and Washington. Vilsack said all U.S. data has been "basically walled off," the suggestion being that the Chinese government has no access to it.

"It's really not a collaboration per se," Vilsack said. "To my knowledge, there is not [data] sharing … all of this is basically walled off, so everything we're doing stays with us; it doesn't necessarily go to the UK or to China."

Billions of people now deficient in critical life-supporting micronutrients, study finds

New research published in the Lancet Global Health journal reveals that more than half of the world's population is severely lacking in micronutrients like vitamins and minerals.

An astounding 99.3 percent of the entire global population, including some wealthy one-percenters, is lacking in at least one vital nutrient the body needs for wellness, the paper explains.

Researchers collected data from 31 countries and used methodology to extrapolate it as an estimate for micronutrient intake across 185 countries. They looked at 15 micronutrients in particular that are recognized as critical for human health.

The team identified seven common micronutrients that people are most deficient in: calcium, iodine, vitamin E, iron, riboflavin (vitamin B2), vitamin C, and folate. In the United States, vitamin E, iodine, and vitamin C are among the most common micronutrient deficiencies.

Throughout the world, children younger than five years old are generally lacking in iron, zinc, and / or vitamin A.

"Our study is a big step forward," commented Chris Free, a research professor and the study's lead co-author.

"Not only because it is the first to estimate inadequate micronutrient intakes for 34 age-sex groups in nearly every country, but also because it makes these methods and results easily accessible to researchers and practitioners."

Ty Beal, another lead author, called the findings "alarming," adding that these major "gaps" in micronutrient levels are compromising public health and "limit[ing] human potential on a global scale."

Taiwan FM to 'Post': Intel, tech exchanges a 'must' between Taiwan and Israel - interview

Taiwan's Foreign Minister Lin Chia-Lung emphasized the critical importance of intelligence sharing and technology cooperation with Israel amid rising threats from China.

“For Taiwan’s relations with Israel, intelligence exchanges are a must, and technology cooperation is very important between the two countries, especially technology related to national defense and security,” Lin stated at a meeting in the Asian island’s capital of Taipei.

Taiwan is grappling with increasing aggression from China regarding the island’s sovereignty as Beijing looks to extend its control over the Taiwan Strait and South China Sea. Tensions have recently increased too between China and the Philippines, with China being accused of “dangerous actions” as heightened maritime confrontations between ships and aircraft escalate.

USGOV rejects calls to investigate Israel’s deliberate murder of American citizen while also warning against ‘conflating’ her murder with killing of American Jew Hersh Goldberg-Polin

Officials in the United States have said that Washington still does not ‘know with full certainty what transpired’ when a US citizen was killed by Israeli forces in the occupied West Bank last week, stressing that they were waiting for the findings of an Israeli investigation.

The US on Monday also rejected calls for an independent investigation into the fatal shooting of Aysenur Ezgi Eygi. State Department spokesperson Vedant Patel declined to acknowledge that Eygi was killed by an Israeli soldier, but he called for the process to ‘play out and for the facts to be gathered’.

He also urged Israel to ‘quickly and robustly conduct’ its probe and make the findings public, but confirmed the administration is not planning to independently investigate the killing.

House Foreign Affairs Chairman: Biden-Harris Admin Obstructed Afghanistan Investigation

House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Michael McCaul (R-TX) said over the weekend that his committee was delayed in releasing its long-awaited report about the Biden-Harris administration’s disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan because the administration obstructed the investigation.

The damning 353-page report lays bare the administration’s failures as well as the ways that it “misled and, in some instances, directly lied to the American people at every stage of the withdrawal, from before the go-to-zero order until today.”

McCaul was asked by CBS News’ Margaret Brennan on “Face The Nation” on Sunday if the timing of the report’s release was related to the upcoming election.

“No,” McCaul responded. “It’s taken me two years to get to this point because of the obstruction. I’ve had to sort of subpoena after subpoena, move to compel, threaten to, you know, hold the secretary in contempt to get information, like after action reports, all these documents, testimonies that we finally got to.”

“Why is it important right now, Margaret? Because of the foreign policy is at stake,” he said. “What happened after Afghanistan impacted the world. Why? Because Putin responded by invading Ukraine two months after Afghanistan fell. Chairman Xi, Putin made an unwholly alliance in Beijing threatening the Pacific now. And then the Ayatollah reared his ugly head in the Middle East. And we’re seeing this.”

He said that the ISIS terrorist suspects who were arrested on U.S. soil after illegally crossing the southern border were released from Bagram prison during the withdrawal.

Reporter: "The president said, 'If you harm an American, we will respond.' Does that apply in this case, or are we talking about a different standard?"

Vedant Patel: "What the president was talking about was a terrorist attack or a direct attack from a state or non-state actor"

Reporter: "but do you have doubt that it was an Israeli bullet?"

Vedant Patel: "I’m not going to get ahead of the process. There's been a lot of open source and eyewitness reporting"

United Nations legal officer is caught on camera stating the UN’s ambition to become a world government

At the end of last month, Mug Club Undercover recorded Jorge Paoletti, a self-described “Globalist” and a legal affairs official in the UN Treaty Section, saying: “They created this institution [the UN] which is the closest we’ve ever got to kind of like a world government. A world state,” Paoletti said.

“Like a one-world government?” the undercover reporter asked. “Exactly,” Paoletti responded.

In Paoletti’s words, the UN aspires to be a globalist world government that rules over Earth’s citizens, all of whom would be forced to adhere to a uniform identity.

“One of the objectives of the UN is to create an identity of a global citizen … of someone who shares an identity, a political identity, with everyone on this planet,” he said.

Forged Hamas documents leaked to shape public opinion, report says

Israel's Yedioth Ahronoth reports that leaked Hamas documents that purported to show plans to smuggle Israeli captives out of Gaza were forged.

Speaking to military officials, the Israeli outlet says the documents were leaked in an attempt to influence public opinion and present a view that Hamas and its leader, Yahya Sinwar, were uninterested in a ceasefire deal and attempting to pin the failure to reach an agreement on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

The documents were used by the UK's Jewish Chronicle and Germany's Bild.

Fraud Grips $112.8 Billion U.S. Food Stamp Program, $61.5 Million in Stolen Benefits Replaced

Fraud in the government’s food stamp program is so pervasive that the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), the agency that administers it, launched a special system to facilitate the replacement of the welfare benefit when recipients claim it stolen. In the two years since the Biden administration created the program, the government has doled out a hefty $61.5 million to replace pilfered food stamps—rebranded Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) by the Obama administration to eliminate stigma—in 127,290 cases. Keep in mind, this is in addition to the staggering $112.8 billion that Uncle Sam spends to provide 42.1 million with free groceries, according to the latest government figures.

The USDA’s SNAP Replacement of Stolen Benefits Dashboard reveals that 79% of claims were approved by the agency and that 339,269 fraudulent transactions were identified through approved stolen benefits claims. Recipients in every state in the nation have submitted claims and New York has by far the most food stamp fraud cases—50,678. Maryland is second with 33,509, followed by Illinois (16,369), Texas (11,633), Washington State (4,208), New Jersey (3,630), Arizona (3,541), North Carolina (3,434), Indiana (3,309) and New Mexico (3,027). Three states have reported over 2,000 cases and more than half a dozen have over 1,000. The federal government allows states to replace benefits stolen as far back as October 2022, according to the USDA dashboard.

“The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) is aware of increased reports of Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) theft due to card skimming, cloning, and similar fraudulent methods,” the agency announced in January 2023, revealing that at the end of 2022 President Biden signed a measure that includes a provision for the replacement of stolen food stamp benefits with federal funds. The USDA cites the section of the law that requires it to issue guidance to state agencies and “promulgate regulations to protect and replace SNAP benefits stolen via card skimming, card cloning, and other similar fraudulent methods.” Other similar fraudulent methods may include, but are not limited to, scamming through deceitful phone calls or text messaging that mimics official state agency messaging and phishing. “A theft that resulted from any of these methods would be eligible for replacement,” according to the USDA.

Rather than so easily replacing the stolen benefit, perhaps the government should create a system to crack down on the rampant fraud. Besides saving American taxpayers tens of millions of dollars, it seems like a more efficient way to operate. Afterall, the nation’s bloated food stamp program has long been plagued by problems that have fleeced the system out of large sums. A few years ago, the USDA disclosed that it sees over a billion dollars annually in food stamp fraud. Many of the retailers authorized by the government to accept food stamps also engage in illegal practices, the agency has found. A few years ago, nearly 200 people were arrested in Florida for operating a sophisticated ring in which 22,000 fraudulent food stamp transactions totaling $3.7 million were recorded by a task force of local and federal authorities. In 2016 the feds busted the largest food stamp fraud operation in history, a $13 million scheme run by flea market retailers in the largely black and Hispanic areas of south Florida’s Miami-Dade County known as Opa-Locka and Hialeah.

Tom Fitton: Hope you’re having a good holiday. Congress is out for six weeks. They won’t get back until September eighth. In the meantime, we faced a crisis with the Biden-Harris regime trying to jail Trump.

Aliens likely will able to vote without much pushback.

So they need to get back, deal with the government funding measure, and ensure that the government doesn’t get any money until the Republic is protected.
