1st UK government minister quits IN PROTEST over Cummings lockdown violation saga

The under-secretary of state for Scotland has become the first UK government minister to resign from cabinet after PM Boris Johnson’s chief adviser Dominic Cummings allegedly broke lockdown rules at the height of Covid-19 crisis.

In his resignation letter, published on social media on Monday morning, junior minister Douglas Ross insisted that he had constituents who had not been able to say “goodbye to loved ones” and were not allowed to “mourn together” as a family during the coronavirus pandemic.

I cannot in good faith tell them they were all wrong and one senior adviser to the government was right.

Ross wrote that while Cummings’ “intentions may have been well meaning,” the vast majority of Brits do not agree with his interpretation of the lockdown rules – measures the public has had to strictly abide by.

During his press conference on Monday, Cummings offered a lengthy defense of his 260-mile lockdown trip across England – from his primary residence in London to his parents’ estate in Durham in the north east of the country. His lack of apology has sparked fury across the political spectrum and left many asking more questions.

The 48-year-old claims the journey was justified because he was worried that his ill wife and he – who had been in close working contact with Covid-19-infected Downing Street figures such as the UK PM, could become too incapacitated to look after their four-year-old child.

Reacting to the resignation, a Downing Street spokesman it would not be drawn on the precise nature of Ross’ protestations, but did say that “The Prime Minister would like to thank Douglas Ross for his service to government and regrets his decision to stand down as Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Scotland.”

New data shows 42% of all COVID-19 deaths have been in nursing homes. When NY is excluded, the rate jumps to 52%.

Disproportionate

One of the long-running debates over the ongoing coronavirus lockdowns has been the disproportionate number of COVID-19 deaths in America's nursing homes and how those deaths have skewed the data used to set public policy.

It seems that everyone understands that residents of nursing homes and assisted living facilities are the most vulnerable among us. But now we have research that shows just how vulnerable they have been.

New data from the Foundation for Research on Equal Opportunity has revealed that an estimated 42.4% of all COVID-19 deaths have been in nursing homes and assisted living facilities (or residential care homes).

To show how disproportionate those deaths are compared to the rest of the country, the report points out that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says 5.1 million people live in those types of facilities and represent only 1.6% of the total U.S. population.

Yes, 1.6% of the population accounts for 42.4% of all COVID deaths in the U.S. From FREOPP:

Among states reporting nursing home fatalities, death from COVID-19 has struck 0.64% of U.S. residents of nursing homes and residential care facilities. We estimate that 5.1 million Americans over 65 live in nursing homes and residential care facilities; by extrapolating 0.64% across the entire U.S. nursing and residential care home population, we estimate that nursing homes account for 42.4% of COVID-19 fatalities.

The rates are even more disproportionate if you remove New York state's data, which is an outlier because of the state's high share of overall coronavirus cases and deaths as well as its data reporting methods.

When New York's COVID-19 deaths are removed from the equation, nursing homes account for 51.8% of all COVID-19 deaths. More from FREOPP:

This estimate excludes New York State, which is an outlier in terms of its reported share of COVID-19 deaths in nursing homes. A number of policymakers in New York have alleged that nursing home facilities in that state have been underreporting their COVID-19 fatality figures, possibly because New York State counts as hospital deaths those of nursing home residents who die in a hospital. It could also be that the high number of non-long-term care deaths in New York explain the lower percentage (i.e., a much larger denominator).

What about the rest of the world?

The report noted that the United States' experience with nursing home COVID-19 deaths is not unique.

A study from the International Long Term Care Policy Network looked at deaths in Austria, Australia, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Hungary, Ireland, Israel, Norway, Portugal, Singapore, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom, FREOPP said.

According to the international study, 40.8% of reported COVID-19 deaths occurred in nursing homes.

Taxpayers to Be Held Liable for On-Duty Cop Accused of Kidnapping, Raping Over a Dozen Woman

Phoenix, AZ — As the Free Thought Project frequently reports, when most people see police lights in their rear view mirror, the last thing they feel is “protected.” When a cop is pulling you over it most likely means that you are about to be extorted for a victimless crime. However, if the cop in the story below was pulling you over, it meant something much worse than mere extortion. If you are a woman, it meant you were about to be kidnapped and raped.

As tFTP previously reported, Arizona Department of Public Safety Trooper Tremaine Jackson, 43, was arrested last year on a whopping 61 charges of everything from kidnapping to sexual assault. The trooper, who’d been with the department for 13 years is accused of pulling women over and sexually assaulting them.

Now, the taxpayers of Maricopa County are about to be held liable for his sick acts. The lawsuit states that Arizona should be held liable for the wrongful conduct of its officers, employees, agents, districts, divisions, and subdivisions.

Since we reported on the original story, a total of 15 victims have come forward, alleging sex abuse, kidnapping and fraud.

At the time, police expected there to be more victims, so they setup a form for victims to fill out. If you or someone you know was abused by this man, you can fill out a complaint form here.

“This event started on May 19th where we received an initial complaint about some inappropriate comments by Trooper Jackson to a female motorist,” said DPS Director Col. Frank Milstead. But this was only the tip of the iceberg.

“While we were investigating that May complaint, on June 11th, we received a second complaint. This one also alleging inappropriate commentary and then also criminal behavior to the extent of sexual abuse,” Milstead said. “Trooper Jackson was using his position as Arizona State Trooper to bargain leniency for favor.”

In other words, this “hero” officer was pulling women over and forcing them to give him sexual favors or face being kidnapped—a situation that only works if you have a badge.

“The Arizona Department of Public Safety is a proud and venerable organization with a storied past,” Milstead said last year. “Most of the employees serve Arizona with pride and integrity. … When one of our own betrays public trust or breaks the law, we respond swiftly and without regret.”

In October, Jackson was booked on multiple counts of sexual abuse, attempted sexual abuse, sexual extortion, unlawful imprisonment, kidnapping, harassment, forgery, and tampering with a public record, among other charges.

In early September, a total of eight women had come forward with allegations of abuse by this cop. And now that number is 15.

Supreme Court Allows Trans Prisoner’s Gender Surgery to Move Ahead as Lawsuit Continues

The U.S. Supreme Court on Thursday allowed an Idaho prison inmate to continue with gender surgery at state taxpayers’ expense while the lawsuit over the procedure continues.

According to the Associated Press (AP), Justice Elena Kagan gave the order denying Idaho’s request for a stay, without explanation, but noted that Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito would have sided with the state.

Gov. Brad Little (R) had appealed to the Supreme Court in early May to overturn the decision of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit that ordered state taxpayer dollars to pay for the gender surgery of Mason Edmo, a 32-year-old man who is serving a sentence for sexual assault of a 15-year-old boy in 2011.

The state also asked for a hold on the Ninth Circuit’s order requiring the surgery at the state’s expense to move forward pending the appeal.

“The Ninth Circuit’s decision goes against the text and original meaning of the Eighth Amendment and contradicts more than four decades of Supreme Court precedent,” Little said when he announced filing the appeal to the high Court. “We will vigorously litigate the Ninth Circuit’s unprecedented ruling at the Supreme Court because the taxpayers of Idaho should not have to pay for a procedure that is not medically necessary.”

Edmo’s surgery is scheduled for July while the Supreme Court weighs whether to hear the state’s appeal, reported CBS2 News and AP.

The surgery is expected to cost Idaho taxpayers between $20,000 and $30,000. Afterward, Edmo would be placed in a women’s prison until his scheduled release in July 2021.

Edmo sued the state three years ago, claiming rejection of his state-funded gender surgery caused him distress.

According to the news report, attorney Lori Rifkin said Edmo was in such distress that he “twice tried to cut off [his] testicles in [his] prison cell.”

However, James Shupe, the man who became the first person to obtain a legal sex designation of “non-binary” and now asserts the transgender lifestyle is a “fraud,” told Breitbart News in comments he believes Edmo’s claims are false.

“The ACLU argues Edmo attempted to castrate himself because is a female trapped in a male body,” Shupe explained. “The truth is its self-hatred of his genitals because of the behaviors they’ve fueled and sexual paraphilias at work. Or in the case of pedophiles, they’re so distressed about the urges to harm others, they’re willing to engage in self-harm or chemical castration to turn off the dangerous urges. Transgenderism works the same way for males.”

Donald Trump Warns of ‘Rigged Election’ with ‘Fraudulent’ Mail-in Ballots

President Donald Trump warned Tuesday the 2020 election would be “rigged” thanks to Democrats pushing mail-in ballots during the coronavirus pandemic.

“This will be a Rigged Election. No way!” Trump wrote on Twitter and Facebook.

The president predicted mass voter fraud in 2020, thanks to Democrat officials using the pandemic to institute mail-in voting.

“There is NO WAY (ZERO!) that Mail-In Ballots will be anything less than substantially fraudulent,” he wrote.

The president pointed to California’s governor Gavin Newsom who signed an executive order to mail ballots to all voters in the November 3 general election.

“Mail boxes will be robbed, ballots will be forged and even illegally printed out and fraudulently signed,” Trump said.

The Republican National Committee, National Republican Congressional Committee, and California Republican Party have filed a lawsuit to block the action, arguing that it is unconstitutional.

Trump warned that Democrat activists would use the mail-in vote option to generate more votes for their party.

“That will be followed up with professionals telling all of these people, many of whom have never even thought of voting before, how, and for whom, to vote,” he wrote.

Afghan Truce Holds, Government Releases 100 Prisoners

President Ghani promises to expedite the releases

The Eid al-Fitr holiday began on Monday, and so did the Afghanistan ceasefire announced by the Taliban. Early signs are very promising, and everything seems to be holding. The Ghani government even released 100 prisoners as part of the process.

This is just a small number of prisoners, part of what President Ghani says will be 2,000. Officials reportedly plan to release 100 prisoners per day, and there is hope that the ceasefire will be extended beyond the 3-day truce.

The ceasefire seems to be following the similar path of the Eid al-Fitr ceasefire in 2018. That ended after three days, though the release of prisoners could go a long way toward extending the ceasefire as part of a bid for outright peace.

This is the most progress toward intra-Afghan peace since the US and Taliban signed a peace deal. This is a big chance to make up for lost time from past refusals to meet prisoner release expectations, and get the process going in a big way.

Your “Immunity Passport” Future Begins To Materialize As Airlines Call For Digital ID Tracking Systems

The world’s largest airline trade group has called for immunity passports, thermal screening, masks, and physical distancing to be a part of the industry’s strategy for returning to “normal” operations.

The International Air Transport Association (IATA), which represents 299 airlines, recently issued their publication, Biosecurity for Air Transport A Roadmap for Restarting Aviation, which outlines their strategy to open up air travel as governments begin to lift travel restrictions.

Under a section titled, “The passenger experience” and “Temporary biosecurity measures,” the IATA describes their vision of post-COVID-19 flights. The organization calls for contact tracing, a controversial method of tracking the civilian population to track the spread of COVID-19.

“We foresee the need to collect more detailed passenger contact information which can be used for tracing purposes,” the report states. “Where possible, the data should be collected in electronic form, and in advance of the passenger arriving at the airport including through eVisa and electronic travel authorization platforms.”

Interestingly, this call for pre-boarding check-in using “electronic travel authorization platforms” coincides with the recent announcement of the Covi-Pass and the Health Pass from Clear, both of which call for a digital ID system using biometrics and storing travel, health, and identification data.

Alexandre de Juniac, IATA’s CEO, told Arabian Industry that “a layered approach” combining multiple measures which are “globally implemented and mutually recognized by governments” are “the way forward for biosecurity.”

The IATA also calls for temperature screening at entry points to airport terminals. They envision the airline experience involving physical distancing of 3-6 feet throughout the airport. The group believes changes to the airport buildings to allow for physical distancing may be necessary. The IATA also recommended “face coverings” for passengers and protective equipment for airline and airport staff.

Grenell declassifies slew of Russia probe files, as Ratcliffe takes helm as DNI

Richard Grenell has declassified a new batch of Russia probe documents on his way out as acting director of national intelligence, leaving the decision on whether to make those files public up to newly sworn-in Director John Ratcliffe.

The documents include transcripts of phone calls that then-incoming National Security Adviser Michael Flynn and then-Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak had in December 2016, during the presidential transition period. Grenell said publicly last week that he was in the process of declassifying those files, after House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., asked that he do so.

Fox News has learned that the declassification review of those transcripts is now complete, and it will be left up to Ratcliffe on whether to release them publicly.

Fox News has learned that Grenell also completed the declassification review of other documents related to the origins of the Russia probe — including one that a senior intelligence official told Fox News was “very significant in understanding how intelligence was manipulated to support launching the Russia investigation.”

The official could not provide further details on that newly declassified document, but said that it will also be up to Ratcliffe to decide whether to make it public.

The declassification comes after Grenell, who served as acting director while simultaneously serving as the U.S. ambassador to Germany, made waves with previous declassifications related to the Russia investigation, as well as other actions during his three months on the job.

China Builds Massive Spying Capacity in Africa

State-linked firms have built almost 200 government buildings on the continent

The Chinese government has established an unparalleled spying capacity in Africa by encouraging Chinese companies such as Huawei to construct government buildings across the continent, according to a recent report.

The report, published by the conservative Heritage Foundation, found that Chinese firms—many of which are state-owned or linked to the government—have built or renovated 186 government buildings in Africa. Many were constructed in the last two decades. Senior Policy Analyst Joshua Meservey, the report's author, said the buildings are "a likely vector for Chinese spying," given the Chinese government's history of using such buildings to spy on its inhabitants.

"Beijing may have better surveillance access to Africa than anywhere else in the world," the report reads. "The Chinese government could use the information it harvests to advantage its companies competing against American and other firms, glean insights into U.S. security assistance and counterterrorism programs, and recruit or influence senior African government officials."

The report comes at a time of heightened U.S. interest in China’s activities in Africa, where the communist regime has undertaken hundreds of infrastructure projects in a bid for influence. The U.S.-China Economy and Security Review Commission—a bipartisan body sanctioned by Congress to research China-related issues—held a full-day hearing earlier this month to evaluate China’s strategic aims in Africa.

"The Chinese development model [in Africa] often serves to enrich the PRC and expand its perceived sphere of influence," Christopher Maloney, a senior official at the U.S. Agency for International Development, said during the hearing.

Concerns about China-built government buildings first surfaced in 2018, after reports that the African Union headquarters' China-built databank was sending all of its stored information to a Shanghai server every evening. The database was built by Huawei, a federally indicted Chinese tech giant widely accused of acting as a Trojan horse for Chinese spying.

Other government buildings constructed by Chinese companies might serve as conduits of Chinese espionage, according to the report. Some of the possibly compromised buildings include key establishments, such as Guinea-Bissau’s Palace of Justice, which houses not only the country's supreme court, but also administrative courts and the attorney general’s office.

"[Chinese construction projects in Africa] have waxed and waned, but we've definitely been in a waxing period these last few decades," Meservey told the Washington Free Beacon. "It's really since Tiananmen Square in 1989, when China was increasingly isolated internationally and Africa was a strong source of support, and helped break that isolation."

Justice Department Files Statement of Interest Regarding Section 201 of the Voting Rights Act

The Department of Justice filed a Statement of Interest Monday in an Alabama federal court to promote the proper and uniform interpretation of the Voting Rights Act. The Statement of Interest is part of the Department of Justice’s continuing efforts around the country to enforce our nation’s federal voting rights laws.

The lawsuit in question, brought by private plaintiffs, includes constitutional and statutory challenges to Alabama’s witness requirement for absentee ballots. Although certain of private plaintiffs’ claims relate to the COVID-19 pandemic, plaintiffs have also asked the court to enjoin Alabama’s witness requirement permanently as a violation of Section 201 of the Voting Rights Act.

The Statement of Interest explains that Section 201 prohibits denial of the right to vote to citizens who fail to prove their qualifications by the voucher of registered voters or members of any other class. Alabama’s absentee witness requirement, however, does not violate Section 201. The Statement of Interest does not take a position on any of the private plaintiffs’ other claims.

“The Voting Rights Act outlaws certain practices that deprive Americans of the right to vote because of race and other protected traits. The Voting Rights Act does not outlaw all voting-related requirements enacted by the States,” said Assistant Attorney General Eric Dreiband for the Civil Rights Division. “Congress has entrusted the U.S. Department of Justice with enforcement of the Voting Rights Act and the other federal voting rights laws. These laws protect the right of Americans to vote for their preferred candidates. We will continue to enforce them fairly, including by explaining to courts the legal framework that governs challenges to the voting laws enacted by the States.”

Section 201 of the Voting Rights Act is a permanent, nationwide prohibition on the use of tests and devices in our elections. These unlawful procedures include literacy tests, educational achievement or knowledge tests, good moral character requirements, and voucher requirements.

More information about the Voting Rights Act and other federal voting rights laws is available on the Department of Justice website at https://www.justice.gov/crt/voting-section. Complaints about possible violations of the federal voting rights laws may be reported to the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division at 1-800-253-3931.

Pentagon watchdog sidelined by Trump resigns

The Pentagon’s former top watchdog, whom President Trump replaced last month, has resigned from the inspector general’s office, officials announced on Tuesday.

Glenn Fine submitted his resignation Tuesday morning as the Pentagon’s principal deputy inspector general, saying in a statement that he believes “the time has come for me to step down and allow others to perform this vital role” after several years at the Department of Defense (DOD) and Justice Department.

"It has been an honor to serve in the inspector general community, both as the inspector general of the Department of Justice and the DoD acting inspector general and principal deputy inspector general performing the duties of the DoD inspector general,” Fine said in a statement.

“The role of inspectors general is a strength of our system of government,” he continued. “They provide independent oversight to help improve government operations in a transparent way. They are a vital component of our system of checks and balances, and I am grateful to have been part of that system.”

He added that he wishes the “men and women of the DoD [Office of Inspector General] and the inspector general community continued success in these important responsibilities."

Fine had been serving as the Pentagon’s acting inspector general since 2016, after coming to the watchdog’s office in 2015. He also served as the Justice Department’s inspector general from 2000 to 2011.

In April, Trump named a new acting inspector general, as well as nominated someone to take on the job permanently. The move meant Fine reverted to his previous position as the Pentagon’s principal deputy inspector general.

US envoy Friedman meets Gantz’s rightist allies Handel and Hauser on annexation

Members of Derech Eretz faction are considered allied with Blue and White, but are expected to back West Bank sovereignty bid even without bloc’s approval

Envoy Friedman meets Gantz’s rightist allies Handel and Hauser on annexation

US Ambassador to Israel David Friedman meets with the members of the tiny right-wing Derech Eretz faction to discuss preparations for Israeli annexation of West Bank land.

Derech Eretz is comprised of Communications Minister Yoaz Handel and MK Zvi Hauser. Both are part of Defense Minister Benny Gantz’s bloc in the government. However, despite Gantz’s likely opposition to the annexation push, the two are expected to support it and vote alongside Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud party on any such proposal.

The coalition deal between Netanyahu and Gantz allows the former to pass annexation with a Knesset majority even without Blue and White’s support. Netanyahu has said he plans to do so in early July.

WATCH: Microsoft Co-Founder Paul Allen’s Dark Revelations: ‘Bill Gates Tried to Rip Me Off When I Was In Cancer Radiation’ — Working with Gates “Was Like Being in Hell”

“I felt like when I wrote it I should just tell it like it happened in an unvarnished way …” Miicrosoft co-founder Paul Allen said of his relationship with Bill Gates.

Gates is in the news now for his controversial and maniacal stance and financial support for mandatory vaccines and Allen is now deceased.

But Allen’s telling and dark ’60 Minutes’ tell-all about Gates remains. And it is worth watching now more than ever. Allen said he wanted to go public with the dirt on Gates before he died and has provided a rare glimpse into who Gates really is.

Republicans SUE California Governor Over MANDATORY Mail-In Voting Executive Order

He’s at it again. California liberal governor Gavin Newsom is once again trying to seize power in the state, this time by making mail in balloting MANDATORY.

The Republican Party has now filed a massive lawsuit in federal court over it.

Newsom of course is claiming that by doing this he will help slow the spread of Covid-19, which is already declining across the nation at a rapid rate as states open up.

Newsom, a Democrat who frequently spars with President Donald Trump on a host of issues, signed Executive Order N-64-20 on May 8. The order requires officials in all 58 of the Golden State’s counties to send all registered voters vote-by-mail ballots for the Nov. 3 general election whether they want them or not. In-person voting also will be available.

“Elections and the right to vote are foundational to our democracy,” Newsom said when he issued his order. “No Californian should be forced to risk their health in order to exercise their right to vote.”

The President and conservatives are strongly against mail-in voting and rightly so. The Democrats are notorious for screwing up election counting and election meddling.

Mail-in voting is particularly susceptible to fraud, experts say.

“The consensus, among people who study fraud carefully, is that voting by mail is a much more fertile area for fraud than voting in person,” Charles Stewart, a political science professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, previously told NPR.

Republican stalwart Tom Del Beccaro told The Epoch Times that Newsom clearly overstepped his authority as governor.

“Existing California law allows for an absentee ballot process not mail-in voting. No constitutional power nor any law permits Newsom to change duly authorized law let alone reshape our voting system on his own,” said Del Beccaro, a former chairman of the California Republican Party and author of “The Divided Era: How We Got Here and the Keys to America’s Reconciliation.” Del Beccaro is an occasional contributor to The Epoch Times.

“That is one of the many power grabs by Newsom that must be pursued in the courts and undone lest it becomes practice and encourages more lawless behavior.

Court rules alleged child sex abuser Leifer fit to be extradited for trial

Judge says former school principal feigned mental illness to avoid facing 74 counts of child sex abuse in Australia; defense plans appeal after July 20 extradition hearing

In a major ruling, the Jerusalem District Court has determined that alleged serial pedophile Malka Leifer is mentally fit for extradition to Australia to stand trial on charges of 74 counts of child sex abuse.

The decision handed down by Judge Chana Miriam Lomp to reject Leifer’s claims that she was unfit to stand trial seemingly caps a years-long struggle by Leifer’s alleged victims and Australian authorities to see her returned to face justice.

“I decided to accept the expert panel’s opinion,” Lomp announced at the start of the hearing, referring to a psychiatric board that unanimously ruled in January that Leifer has been feigning mental illness in order to avoid extradition, and assessed her as fit to stand trial.

Lomp scheduled the extradition hearing for July 20, after Leifer attorney Tal Gabay requested additional time to prepare for the session.

Leifer’s alleged victims and supporters celebrated the ruling, along with Australian officials who had fumed over what they saw as Israeli foot-dragging in the case.

“This abusive woman has been exploiting Israeli courts for 6 years! Intentionally creating obstacles, endless vexatious arguments – only lengthening our ongoing trauma!” said one of Leifer’s alleged victims, Dassi Erlich, in a statement immediately after the ruling. “Too many emotions to process!!! This is huge!”

7 Ways the DNC Will Use Contact Tracers for Biden’s Campaign to Oust Trump

The Democrat Party’s GOTV (Get Out the Vote) program relies on labor unions and the NGO sector. Those who organized these directly as this writer has, or those who have been on the receiving end of it, will understand how this zeal, backed by the force of law under the auspices of Contact Tracers/Compliance Officers, will change the electoral outcome.

Contact Tracers are Compliance Officers Backed by Police and Operating under Governor’s Orders

Contact Tracers are based on public sector workers in the area of public health, or NGO’s that rely on funding from DNC backed philanthropy and state budgets. They all rely on their relationship to the DNC to exist.

Among the first NGO’s to receive grants to carry out Contact Tracing work is PIH – Partners In Health. This group, funded by the Clinton Foundation, worked in Rwanda and Haiti and may have been involved in unspeakable crimes. Chelsea Clinton sits on the governing board, and other prominent backers and allies include Rahm Emanuel, Epstein, and Gates.

An investigative report by Raul Diego for Mint Press gives a comprehensive outline of just how Contact Tracers as a type of Compliance Officers from PIH, will work. From his journalism, we see components of the program and how they are meant to dovetail as part of the coming 2020 electoral strategy.

Clinton tweeted in mid-May, urging other governors in the country to follow California governor Newsom’s order for mail-in ballots.

Contact tracers as part of the NGO Industrial Complex, as a private-charter variation of the public sector, only less accountable, will become a new layer of society invested in preserving their work by voting to maintain their budget.

Because Contact Tracers can enter the homes and because some voting polls may also be closed, we can see where Contact Tracers will ‘assist’ voters in their homes with their mail-in ballots. We can predict that in Democrat voting households there will be a disproportionate increase in ballots that actually wind up being counted.

While there has been focus on HR 6666 that adds financing for Contact Tracers, there are ways these can be financed (as they already are) anyway. The ‘bailouts’ at the end of March included massive provisions for the NGO sector dealing in areas of civil society ranging from immigration to public education and healthcare.

These were the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA), and the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act.

At-home methods of electronic voting and mail-in that do away with exit-poll cross-checks, is the preferred general strategy the Democrat Party will use to steal the election.

Polls showing Biden ahead should be discounted prima facie, as these are the polls before that intentionally projected Hillary Clinton despite unpublished polls used by the campaigns to the contrary. Both campaigns had a clear understanding that Trump had a very strong chance of winning on that decisive night. This is why ‘insurance policies’ were openly discussed by team Clinton as the election approached.

The fake polls will be used to show that Biden had a strong chance of winning all along. That’s pertinent to the strategy to oust Trump by way of coup tactics.

The strategy to remove Trump is designed to work as follows:

Brazil. Almost 100 Officers Publish Letter Warning Of Civil War

A letter signed by almost 100 military personnel of the Army’s reserve forces (the vast majority colonels who graduated from the military academy in the early 1970’s) was sent to the head of the Office of Institutional Security (GSI – responsible for the national intelligence agency), General Augusto Heleno, in which they warned of the imminent risk of ‘civil war’ in Brazil and expressed their absolute support for and loyalty to their former commander. According to a report published by Resumen Latinoamericano on 24 May, the letter was first reported at the UOL portal, a Brazilian news agency

This has occurred as legal and political pressure continue to build on Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, who is facing calls for his impeachment by the Congress or indictment by the courts. Although the president can still count on the active support of his core constituency (accounting for around 30% of Brazilians), and most of the larger political parties in the Congress remain reluctant to commit themselves one way or the other over impeachment proceedings, the proportion of Brazilians who disapprove of his presidency has risen steadily and is now over 50% and the formal requests for his impeachment are multiplying.

The resignation of Justice Minister Sergio Moro last month, in part at least on the basis that the president intervened in the management of the Federal Police in order to protect his children from legal and judicial investigations, has been a particularly damaging development for the president. After dismissing the director-general of the Federal Police, Bolsonaro then attempted to appoint a close family friend as director-general, a measure which the Supreme Federal Tribunal has provisionally suspended. Moro’s allegations resulted in the opening of a judicial investigation against the president. The magistrate with primary responsibility for the case, Celso de Mello, must also determine the validity of a request that the Chamber of Deputies begin an impeachment proceeding against the president.

The magistrate also ordered the release of a video of a Cabinet meeting in which Bolsonaro describes his reasons for intervening in the management of the Federal Police. The release of the video has sent shockwaves throughout the State and Brazilian society more generally, and was probably the trigger event for the letter sent by the military officers to Heleno.

Netanyahu Says Annexation Of West Bank To Happen By July 1st In “Historic Opportunity”

On May 25th, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pledged to annex parts of the West Bank in the coming months.

He said that the plan was to do so in by July 1st, and that there were no plans to delay it any further.

Netanyahu said that Israel will not miss what he called a “historic opportunity” to extend its sovereignty to Palestinian lands, calling the move one of his newly sworn-in government’s top priorities.

“We have an opportunity that hasn’t existed since 1948 to apply sovereignty in a wise way and as a diplomatic step in Judea and Samaria, and we will not let this opportunity pass,” the PM said, referring to the year Israel was established and using the biblical names for the West Bank.

“We have a target date in July to apply sovereignty and we will not change it,” Netanyahu later told the gathered member of Knesset (Parliament), during a part of the meeting that was closed to media, Israeli media reported.

Israel’s ambassador to the U.S., Ron Dermer, has been lobbying American officials in recent weeks to back annexation, fearing that the plan could be derailed if Joe Biden wins the presidency in November.

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said last week that the Palestinian Authority considers itself free of all agreements and understandings with both Israel and the U.S. — including on security matters — because of Israel’s annexation plans.

On the US side, the White House and the US Department of State said that the deadline provided by Netanyahu isn’t “sacred” and that annexation would be supported by Washington only if it was in the framework of Palestinian-Israeli peace talks.

Still, the move follows US President Donald Trump’s “Deal of the century.”

The deal essentially lets Israel impose sovereignty all the way to Jordan while Palestinians are granted a disjointed and demilitarised entity. The Palestinian state’s capital would be on the outskirts of Jerusalem, the disputed city that would remain fully under Israeli sovereignty.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan rejected Israel’s plans and gave his support to Palestinians in a video statement to U.S. Muslims on Eid al-Fitr, the holiday marking the end of the holy month of Ramadan.

“We will not allow the Palestinian lands to be offered to anyone else. I would like to reiterate that Al Quds Al-Sharif, the holy site of three religions and our first kiblah, is a red line for all Muslims in the world,” Erdogan said, referring to Jerusalem by its Arabic name.

The EU’s foreign policy chief, Josep Borrell, has said annexation would violate international law and vowed to use “all our diplomatic capacities” to stop it.

Bill Gates later went on CNN to praise China’s handling of the disease that had killed tens of thousands of people across the globe.

On Monday news broke that the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation Trust placed big bets on technology titans in the first quarter, according to a recent Securities and Exchange Commission filing.

Salvini Migrant Trial Postponed After Leaked Chats and Coronavirus

The trial of populist Italian Senator Matteo Salvini for allegedly kidnapping migrants has been postponed following leaks of Whatsapp chats between Italian magistrates last week and the Wuhan coronavirus outbreak.

The trial of Senator Salvini was set to begin proceedings in July relating to the Gregoretti affair, in which he is accused of kidnapping migrants aboard the Gregoretti coastguard vessel while serving as the country’s interior minister in July of last year.

Salvini had ordered the craft not to allow the migrants to disembark until the European Union had agreed to relocate the migrants aboard the vessel as part of his anti-mass migration policy that also closed Italian ports to migrant transport NGO ships. The allegation is his actions to protect the Italian nation from immigration amounts to kidnapping.

The hearing has now been postponed until October, according to a Monday report from newspaper La Repubblica, with the judge in the case, Nunzio Sarpietro, blaming the Wuhan coronavirus outbreak for the delay.

“Our roles have been overwhelmed by the lockdown for the coronavirus emergency. There are thousands of postponed trials that take precedence, and I had to postpone the start of the trial that sees Senator Salvini accused in October,” he said.

Salvini has previously expressed concern about impartiality in the case after Whatsapp messages between Italian magistrates Luca Palamara and Paolo Auriemma were leaked last week in which the officials claimed to agree that Salvini’s migrant policies were legal and correct but noted they had to attack him anyway.

“This affects the principle of separation of powers and gives me real concern about the lack of unbiased judgement that affects the outcome of the procedure against me,” Salvini wrote in a letter to Italian President Sergio Mattarella.

Judge Sarpietro, however, dismissed the League leader’s concerns saying: “Don’t worry Senator Salvini, you will have a fair and impartial trial like all citizens. Neither I nor any judge who dealt with this file has anything to do with Palamara. And I agree with him: those interceptions between magistrates are shameful.”

Grenell Takes Dem Senator Mark Warner to the Woodshed in Response to Complaints About Declassification of List of Flynn Unmaskers

Acting DNI Ric Grenell blasted Vice Chair of the Senate Intel Committee Mark Warner (D-VA) in response to the Democrat’s complaints over the declassification of the identities of people who sought to unmask General Flynn.

Recall, Grenell declassified the list of Obama officials involved in the unmasking of General Mike Flynn in his conversations with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak.

Names included former CIA Director John Brennan, Ambassador to the UN Samantha Power, former DNI chief James Clapper, former FBI Director James Comey and even Joe Biden!

Mark Warner sent Grenell a letter last week accusing the DNI of compromising sources and methods in his decision to declassify the list of people who unmasked General Flynn.

And Grenell responded with fire.

“As you well know, the decision to declassify the names of individuals who sought to unmask the identity of General Flynn poses no risk of compromise of either sources or methods. Additionally, far from undermining the credibility of the Intelligence Community, the utmost transparency in this matter builds public trust and confidence in the Community and ensures the IC will not conceal potential abuse behind unnecessary security classification,” Grenell wrote.

Grenell continued, “I find it puzzling that your letter initially complains about the declassification of the identities of unmaskers, a declassification that posed no conceivable risk to sources or methods, only to then request the declassification of actual intelligence reports. Cherry picking certain documents for release, while attacking the release of others that don’t fit your political narrative, is part of the problem the American people have with Washington DC politicians. I would appreciate it if you would explain your philosophy on transparency as it appears to be based soley on political advantage.”

Grenell’s closing is gonna leave a mark.

“Lastly, I should add, I gladly would have discussed this and other intelligence matters with you directly had you not chosen to cancel our planned call and then ignored subsequent requests by my office to reschedule.”

Mossad brought 80 million coronavirus masks to Israel

Knesset closes in on new Shin Bet coronavirus surveillance law

The Mossad’s full list of medical supplies which it helped bring to Israel during the crisis was reported by Ynet on Tuesday.

With Mossad Director Yossi Cohen exiting the picture and turning things over to the Health Ministry, it was revealed that the Mossad brought 80 million masks with another 14 million on the way, 180 million gloves and hundreds of millions of medical drugs to help ailing persons.

In addition, the Mossad brought 1,300 ventilators and with another 4,700 on the way between June and October – in time for the potential Winter second wave.

Finally, the spy agency brought around two million coronavirus test kits, specifically noting that most of them were from China and South Korea.

Cohen, IDF Chief of Staff Aviv Kochavi, Health Ministry chairman Moshe Bar Siman Tov and other officials attended a ceremony on Tuesday marking the end of the IDF’s involvement with the National Coronavirus Control Center at Sheba Medical Center.

The press release stated that the IDF will continue to give all needed help to fight the coronavirus. Kochavi called all the people involved with the center “an amazing group."

Cohen said that while he and his agents "don’t have any medical expertise,” they were able to bring “the spirit of the Mossad” into the daily operations undertaken to curb the health threat coronavirus posed.

The Shin Bet also had its coronavirus activity reduced on Tuesday. The Knesset Intelligence Subcommittee extended the agency's surveillance of coronavirus-infected citizens for an additional three weeks as the government closes in on passing a new law to regulate the issue.

By a vote of 2-1, the committee gave the government until June 8 to submit its proposed bill and until June 16 before another oversight hearing on the issue.

According to the schedule outlined by government representatives, they would hope to fast-track the new bill and pass it into law by early or mid-July.

A Satanist Dogma, "Creative Destruction," is Behind Virus Hoax

Our "leaders" are all Cabalists (Freemasons)

The Cabalist dogma of "Creative Destruction"

explains why humanity seems cursed by never-ending catastrophes like the current coronavirus hoax.

They are engineered by the Illuminati to

attack and destroy anything that smacks of the healthy divine order – spiritual or natural. They must destroy the old order before they can install their satanist tyranny.

(Makow- Satanism Explained)

The mass media is responsible for spreading this hoax. Therefore it is significant that Monday a senior CBC reporter Don Pittis actually referenced this satanic dogma:

"According to the theory of creative destruction derived by Austrian economist Joseph Schumpeter in 1942 from ideas proposed by Karl Marx, economic and technological progress demands that businesses must die and industries and paradigms must be swept away to make room for new ones."

Karl Marx was the father of Communism, a Cabalist and a Satanist. "Creative destruction" is the same rationale they use for the devastation of war. In the article, Pittis speculates that the coronavirus may have a beneficial effect if it transforms society and the economy. Storefront retail and fossil fuels were already getting long in the tooth. Clearly the hidden agenda behind the #scamdemic is social and economic change. Thanks to Satanists controlling the banking system, society is under relentless satanic attack. We are satanically possessed.

The Cabalist Doctrine of Destruction provides a key to understanding world events.

According to the Cabala, which is the secret doctrine of Judaism and Freemasonry, "Evil and catastrophe [are] endemic factors in the process of creation. Without evil there could be no good, without destruction, creation could not take place." (Kabbalah: An Introduction to Jewish Mysticism, by Byron L. Sherwin, p. 72.)
