https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/12/detectives-uncover-chilling-clue-unitedhealthcare-ceos-murder-shell/

Detectives investigating the assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson have uncovered a potential motive: shell casings at the crime scene were inscribed with words.

This discovery suggests the murder was a targeted act. Thompson, who earned nearly $9.9 million annually, had been with the company since 2004 and served as CEO for over three years.

Thompson, 50, was fatally shot on December 4, 2024, outside the New York Hilton Midtown hotel, where he was scheduled to host an investor conference. 'Continue…

Hohmann: The War Whores of the Military-Industrial Complex are Lighting the World on Fire

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/12/hohmann-war-whores-military-industrial-complex-are-lighting/

The Biden administration has triggered another proxy war for Donald Trump to deal with when he becomes president next month. The U.S. deep state is fighting a proxy war in Syria, which appears to be waged with the intention of further destabilizing the Middle East and stirring up another front in World War III.

Syria is collapsing under the weight of another U.S.-sponsored proxy Civil War, with the US, Israel and Sunni jihadists on one side and Russia, Iran, Assad, and Shiite jihadists on the other.

Al Nusra (which is comprised of Al-Qaida and ISIS affiliates) is taking over the country with the help of Turkey, a U.S. ally and key member of the NATO military alliance. These rebels have seized the city of Aleppo and many smaller towns and villages.

M. Dowling at The Independent Sentinel notes that “Jake Sullivan has said Al-Qaida is on our side in Syria.”

Jake Sullivan is Biden’s national security adviser and a key enabler, along with Secretary of State Antony Blinken, of the anti-Russia obsessed deep-state club that shares one thing in common. They all belong to the Trilateral Commission and the Council on Foreign Relations. Continue…

Milei speaks about the unity of freedom defenders

https://gatewayhispanic.com/video/milei-speaks-about-the-unity-of-freedom-defenders/

In this sense, by believing that liberals fall into the trap of not organizing, it was intended to combat an anarchic group of free thinkers. They thought that was what being liberal meant.

The only thing achieved with that was an endless series of noble defeats so that coffeehouse liberals could have a clear conscience. But mainly, it cost us 100 years of violations of individual liberties.

We can never again afford the luxury of making that mistake. I have already said that I have come to awaken lions. And lions, precisely, hunt in groups.

While all Europe is engaged in dealing with the tragic fallout from the demented policies that allowed unchecked mass migration to wreck most societies in the continent, perhaps no other country has a government so engaged in tackling the issue as the Netherlands – after all, to curb migration is almost the whole raison d’étre of the current governing coalition.

So, in an expected move, The Dutch government announced that it means to cap the population of the country at 20 million people by 2050.

To achieve this goal, the Dutch will have to cut immigration numbers by no less than 100,000 people a year.

In 2008, China accounted for more than 90 percent of the world production of REEs, and by 2011, China accounted for 97 percent of the world production of rare earth minerals.

Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) Heads Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to Address Members of Congress Thursday on Capitol Hill – GOP Lawmakers Form DOGE Caucus and DOGE Committee

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/12/doge-heads-elon-musk-vivek-ramaswamy-address-members/

Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) co-leaders, Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, are scheduled to meet with Republican lawmakers on Capitol Hill Thursday to discuss the new program aimed at cutting government waste.

Last month, it was reported that Congressmen Aaron Bean (R-FL) and Pete Sessions (R-TX) launched a new congressional DOGE Caucus aimed at helping Musk and Ramaswamy accomplish their goals. Reps. Jeff Van Drew (R-NJ) and Ralph Norman (R-SC) have also joined the caucus. Even Democrat Representative Jared Moskowitz (D-FL) has reportedly agreed that “reducing ineffective government spending should not be a partisan issue,” vowing to join the Republican caucus.

Separately, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) plans to chair a DOGE House Oversight Subcommittee to “identify and investigate the waste, corruption, and absolutely useless parts of our federal government,” said Greene.

Senator Joni Ernst (R-IA) has also launched the Senate Doge Caucus. Senators John Cornyn (R-TX), Ted Budd (R-NC), Mike Lee (R-UT), Rick Scott (R-FL), Roger Marshall (R-KS), Eric Schmitt (R-MO), and James Lankford (R-OK) have signed on to join the new caucus.

Chinese Illegal Immigrant Shipped Weapons From California To North Korea: DOJ

https://www.zerohedge.com/political/chinese-illegal-immigrant-shipped-weapons-california-north-korea-doj

A Chinese national illegally residing in Southern California was arrested on Dec. 3 for allegedly exporting firearms, ammunition, and other military items to North Korea.

According to the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), 41-year-old Shenghua Wen and his co-conspirators allegedly sent at least two shipments of the weapons inside shipping containers from Long Beach through Hong Kong to North Korea.

“During a series of Mirandized interviews, Wen admitted to exporting firearms and ammunition to North Korea at the direction of the North Korean government,” according to the affidavit filed on Nov. 26.

Wen, who arrived in the United States in 2012, has been living here illegally since overstaying his student visa, and is therefore prohibited from possessing any firearms or ammunition, according to court documents.

Law enforcement searched his home in Ontario, California, on Aug. 14 and seized two devices they say Wen had admitted were to be used militarily by North Korea, “a chemical threat identification device and a hand-held broadband receiver that detects eavesdropping devices.” On Sept. 6, authorities also seized about 50,000 rounds of 9mm ammunition that they alleged Wen intended to send to North Korea.

Where US Troops Are Based Around The World

https://www.zerohedge.com/military/where-us-troops-are-based-around-world

It remains unclear what last night’s political upheaval in South Korea will mean for the country and region. Six opposition parties have submitted a motion to impeach President Yoon Suk Yeol after he called for martial law and then rescinded the order. According to the Washington Post, Yoon’s televised announcement came as a surprise to the U.S. administration, with the Pentagon having since declared that it “had nothing to do with events there.”

The U.S. has a heavy military presence in South Korea, including both personnel and weapons. The base is considered tactically important, both from the U.S. side, as it gives the country influence in the region, as well as for Korea, in terms of having a strong deterrence to nuclear-armed North Korea.

According to data from the Defense Manpower Data Center, South Korea has the third highest number of active U.S. troops deployed of any country outside of the contiguous U.S., at over 23,000 personnel.

It follows only after Japan (52,852) and Germany (34,894). As of June 2024, there are 165,830 active personnel overseas, rising to 1,294,191 active personnel when including those in the U.S. Continue…

Blinken Ramps Up Pressure For Zelensky To 'Get Younger People Into The Fight'

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/blinken-ramps-pressure-zelensky-get-younger-people-fight

It's no secret that the Biden administration has been pressuring Ukraine's Zelensky behind the scenes to drop the age of conscription down to 18 from the current age of 25. But now the White House is becoming much more direct and out in the open about it.

With less than 50 days to go of Biden in office, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has called on Kiev to make "hard decisions" about expanding mobilization efforts to fight the Russians. He's urging that younger men be forced into the fight.

"Getting younger people into the fight, we think, many of us think, is necessary" Blinken stated in a NATO press conference on Wednesday. "Right now, 18- to 25-year-olds are not in the fight," he explained. Continue…

Quebec launches inquiry into campus safety following Middle East conflict tensions

https://tnc.news/2024/12/05/qc-inquiry-campus-safety-middle-east-tensions/

Quebec Premier François Legault has warned against bringing foreign tensions into his province.

“The Quebec government will not tolerate the Middle East conflict to be imported into Quebec,” he wrote in a post to X on Tuesday.

Legault shared an article to accompany his statement, highlighting that Quebec Minister of Higher Education Pascale Déry launched an administrative inquiry into two of the province’s anglophone post-secondary institutions.

Déry confirmed in her own post to X that the ministry had received reports from students citing insecurity and unease on these campuses.

“We know that the conflict in the Middle East generates its share of emotions, but institutions have an obligation to take all necessary steps to ensure a safe and healthy environment for all students,” said Déry.

She added that she had instructed the ministry to investigate whether Dawson College and Vanier College had taken all the necessary measures to guarantee students’ physical and psychological safety.

Vanier College told True North it was surprised at Déry’s announcement, considering it had not received any internal complaints that would warrant any such investigation. Continue…

https://tnc.news/2024/12/05/np-trump-trolls-canada1/

It’s become quite clear that U.S. President-elect Donald Trump is trolling Canada. From telling Prime Minister Justin Trudeau that Canada should become the 51st state of the US to posting AI-generated images of himself, Canadians are getting a taste of Trump diplomacy. Will the U.S. follow through with these tariffs? How should Canadians respond to this epic-level of trolling?

Plus, it looks like the Trudeau Liberals have a new line of attack against Pierre Poilievre.

And, to nobody’s surprise, Canada’s state broadcaster comes to the rescue of Trudeau.

The Great Game in the Arctic: Why the region is the next flashpoint between superpowers

https://www.rt.com/india/608765-great-game-in-arctic-russia-india/

As global powers compete for dominance over vast resources and strategic routes, China and India too are eager to take on a larger role in this pivotal region

The Arctic region, still relatively unexplored, is recognized as a rich repository of untapped natural resources, particularly oil, gas, and marine life. It is also historically viewed as a potential flashpoint for great-power conflict.

Russia has long maintained a dominant presence in the area. However, NATO’s expansion northward has compelled Moscow to significantly increase its military footprint. Growing superpower China has shown an escalating interest in Arctic affairs, while India, despite its geographical distance, has also established a foothold in the region.

With increased US confrontation with both China and Russia, these two powers have fostered greater cooperation and coordination in Arctic matters.

Covering over one sixth of the Earth’s landmass, the Arctic region encompasses the North Pole and is characterized by vast expanses of floating ice, with ridges that can reach up to 20 meters thick. It is estimated to hold nearly 22% of the world’s undiscovered oil and natural gas reserves, with Russia accounting for 52% of the Arctic’s total energy resources and Norway holding 12%.

Global industrialization and rising emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases have resulted in increased temperatures, leading to rapid glacial melting. In 2024, the minimum extent of Arctic sea ice was recorded at 4.28 million square kilometers – approximately 1.8 million square kilometers below the long-term average. The rate of sea ice reduction is nearly 13% per decade, suggesting that the Arctic could become ice-free during the summer by 2040. Continue…
