    “Erika Badenhorts, 67, believes without her flu jab she would have died.”

    Flu. RSV. Sepsis. Oxygen.
    Three weeks in hospital, followed by more hospital stays while doctors worked out why she kept getting so sick. 🤒

    Eventually: immunocompromised, requiring lifelong treatment.

    She’s now featured on the news praising the flu jab, saying she “wouldn’t be alive without it.”
    Apparently this is what vaccine success looks like:

    Get hospitalised → get multiple infections → require ongoing treatment → become the advert for the jab that supposedly kept you out of hospital.

    Hundreds were supposedly “saved from hospital.”

    Erika? She was the marketing campaign. 🤣

    Nothing says “worked perfectly” quite like using someone who spent weeks in hospital as the testimonial for avoiding hospital.

    Sooo…now we’re at official ZERO Iranian oil, anywhere. (Bessant)

    MORE oil that before the conflict, is getting out. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Jj5S4VQfePE
    So NO oil shortage, whatsoever, anywhere. The appearance of shortage is 1) Newsom shutting his refineries for no reason 2) Europe shutting their refineries for plausible “Maintenance” – classic Enron move 3) Shutting down and blowing up all the refineries in Russia. Where Russia has a SURPLUS of diesel in some places. (And attacking a refinery in Venezuela, this morning)

    So all fake, ghey, and voluntary. All engineered by the usual suspects.

    So no wonder the $90 oil looked primed to collapse.

    42,000 job loss in Canada per month. Canada is selling oil TWENTY FIVE DOLLARS UNDER SPOT for their own oil. To Trump, to America. Because thanks to Carney, they have no pipeline. “When you want to win a trade war with a superpower, always sell your commodities at $25 under spot” – Sun Tzu.

    And Quebec has elected separatists who are voting to remove 9 million of the most productive people. So like I said ONLY YESTERDAY, there is no Canada. It’s already split. Alberta is also voting for the same, shortly, and you may think it matters if both decide to stay on these votes. It doesn’t. 1) That’s normal first vote even if they’re leaving, 2) More importantly, the UNCERTAINTY will erase the economy, the politics, and the nation. That happened to Quebec originally, (which was almost certainly encouraged with matches and gasoline by the CIA) and where the Quebec separation shifted the power from Quebec alone (remember, Toronto was barely a city) or a 50-50 Quebec-Ontario with everyone else being 5%, to the Entire nation being run by Ontario.

    And the devastation and ill will that arose from the Ontario-Ottawa monolith leading to several secessions today. As Ontario dgaf about anyone and a couple guys in Urban Toronto are shoving everything (that might make sense in a city) down everyone else’s throats in Moosehead.

    But it was not that QC actually left – it was only everyone being tired of the UNCERTAINTY, the talk, the loss of effort in politics.

    So here in two months since I started talking of it, Canada ALREADY is splitting QC off, some stunning, like 1/3rd of the nation, with ports, economy, culture, everything that makes that totally, completely possible, even advisable. And Alberta (plus more) ALSO easy to leave as U.S. territories maybe, as without Quebec, what power does Ontario alone have to make them? Not much. Okay, what is Ottawa going to do without Quebec on one side and Alberta on the other? Like, work to produce their own taxes? Hahahahahaha!! Surely you jest, sir. They can’t even get a bus to B.C, the other high-handed tax-hole.

    Man, Carney is the best American ever. I wouldn’t have even guessed you could speed run the delivery of a whole country to the U.S. and to Trump personally.

    On the other side? Carney is trying to give Canada to the EU, when they’re already down 17%. I mean, that’s the time to lash your ship, when the other ship is already 17% under and sinking fast. So what will happen? A: well the whole POINT of taking BRITISH North America is to DEVOUR it, eat it, sink it, to save themselves. That’s why Colonies exist – to be extracted. So that means Canada will be sunk RIGHT NOW, First! Why? If the point is to stop your sinking, and you have this means to stop, then you use it all, completely, first, and save England, Germany, France, etc, as Canadians are non-human non-peoples. Colonists. They exist to serve you, Europe, whether by life or by death.

    So THAT is an ominous thought, but at the rate they’re being Ukrainized, a true one. I mean we’ll know in a month, but they ALREADY are selling off their ports like Greece, Sri Lanka, and once the sales are inked, it’s a bit late, eh? You need to mobilize, act to STOP it happening.

    (P.S. STOP SCREWING ALBERTA. They won’t stay until you stop screwing them.)

    “To Limit Immigration, Japan Hikes Residency App Fee 20-Fold, Requires Incomes Higher Than National Average

    That’s silly: everyone knows the minute your airplane lands, you become as completely, totally Japanese as if your family were there 5,000 years. That’s how Culture and Immigration works. You touch their magic sand and the full knowledge of Japanese language and etiquette comes upon you.

    “Socialist Americans are promising affordable housing through rent controls and government intervention. The evidence shows that these policies deliver the opposite…”

    P.S. Progressive, Helpful France which has done everything for migrants is entirely on fire by the 100,000s. So I can probably stop saying things about Socialists now. The warning period is over, so no use: Everybody knows and can see with their own eyes now they don’t need me.

    If they’re like England, they’ll house-arrest every citizen and keep bringing more migrants. WHILE they are setting their boats on fire and attacking police, at the landing site. “No! You don’t understand! Free hotels! Free Rapes! Here’s my 14 year old daughter!” they will yell through police bullhorns, as Lot did in Sodom before him.

    The NEA is the Political Action Commitee for the education management industry. The education management industry is the parallel to the prison management industry. The school board is the public facing branch of the education management industry that is there to convince you that you and your fellow ad valorem tax payers own the school system.

    Now that we have headlines designed to mislead your two question.
    Is there a public library system where you live?
    Does your child or you have a library membership?
    a third question
    Have you ever purposefully consumed any information that was not pre-selected to propagandize you?

    The teachers that are members of the state education associations and The NEA are not members because they politicized, they are members simply to protect their pension plan. Put plainly they are networking just as the movers and shakers in the next tier do.

    to paraphrase Smith:

    Today:
    Merz: Well it’s not entirely fair. EVERYONE in Germany is related to a Nazi official or they would have been shot in 1943. While the impulse is admirable, it can’t be put into practice. Who are they NOW? Do they applaud Waffen SS members on the floor of Parliament, for example?

    “Microsoft agreed to restart Three Mile Island in September 2024, when nuclear names surged across the board”

    Turns out we CAN Have cheap energy! All we had to do was turn it on. Shucks. …Oh wait, no: YOU still can’t have cheap energy, but super-expensive ones, while BILLIONAIRE CORPORATIONS get the cheap energy, silly. To track you on Flock Cameras so you can be in a Prison Planet. Infinity money for that! Thanks, Elon.

    “arguably motivated at least in part by the tantalizing possibility of reaching big-ticket resource deals with the US after the conflict ends,”

    What the heck. ‘Cause Putin is a capitalist and Russia is well-known for engaging in the world this way. NO. Putin didn’t have the war FOR THE MONEY. He’s not ending the war FOR THE MONEY. That’s something Europe and the West do. It will seem similar, yes, but you’re not going to understand anything until you put yourself in the space Putin actually works from. This is – to join the trend – “civilizational.” There are a lot of co-equal considerations he’s promoting at all times, that we might make surplus BTUs (profits) is one of 20, or like 5%. Not being nuked from Poland is significantly higher.

    America does this too despite all the false and empty blather about ‘free markets’, because all nations do it. They will point and say “Un-American” despite that we were never founded on this idea, never did it at any time from 1776 to now, and “The American Plan” is basically the opposite of this. But pointing out this the author’s assumption of some norm.

    Thanks, Chicago School, air dropped/injected by Rockefeller himself. All imported Germans.

    Back to the article, if it’s NOT that (As none of us know, but I’m proposing) then what IS Putin’s strategy and goals here? I’ve already stated it’s they knew NATO was trying for a war, that war would make the US fight it while they sat around, and that the impulse was unstoppable, so Russia needed to methodically weaken, and awaken, Europe, the U.S. until the war was not able to be run by them. …You know, like when they’re broke, have no economy, no energy, and all the war-diesel they stockpiled mysteriously is consumed. THEN the war can end.

    …While we buy Russian crude and Belarusian Potash because we were never their enemy in the first place.

    But maybe Fox News and the Alexes are right and Putin has no idea who he’s fighting. The FSB are a bunch of mindless incompetents, well-known. And Putin’s in it for the money.

    “• White House Declassifies DOJ and FBI Documents of Susie Wiles Targeting (CTH)

    See this with the above article on tracking Baron and Melania. I mean: the Secret Service knows where they are already! And the FBI needs to know, so calm down. But! That was Jack Smith. So and why? A: To track the Trump campaign, get an edge and beat him, hopefully find a scandal or something. Same here. They tracked every person 6 levels deep and found NOTHING. (Mr. Reid). He’s so dirty they’ve had 100 investigators on him for 20 years and still find nothing. Again this week. Discuss? Explain. Bad man is so Bad, he never seems to do any prosecutable crimes at all ever, because that’s what “Bad” means?

    Yes, it’s election tampering. But having hard work, patience, honesty, and forbearance, we won anyway. As Christians do. They want us to lose our temper and start shooting instead. Uh, no.

    “It’s as if the whole region has been going through its own version of Trump’s 2024 reelection over the past two years.”

    I mean, it’s a mixed bag, but they were Socialist – the whole world was Socialist NeoLibs for decades – and the alternative is to just keep going like France, Ireland, UK? Its not working. Maybe like a diet, they just need a break, stop the momentum, pick your head up, nothing to do with Left or Right, which have no meaning anyway. (Trump is strongly to the Left of Bill Clinton for example). Latin America can just stop before the cliff, try something else.

    “• Brazil Votes: CIA Cultivated Evangelical Churches ‘For Decades’ – (Pepe Escobar)

    They certainly cultivated them here as well. They want non-Christian pastors to be famous, and genuine people scandalized and killed. Then they use them in the news, to get out the Socialist vote, although they have very little actual membership, and very little influence. The CIA turned 100 elections, but the very first elections they tampered with were ours. Truman. Ike. Kennedy. Ike told you on (Inter)National TV. To your face.

    What Pepe keeps missing, or remembering then un-remembering, is the CIA has nothing to do with the United States and is in fact our sworn enemy. They are the enemy of the government, the People, and our Principles. From Day One, which is why they are British OSS doing an internal takeover, well-confirmed in every book. So his error is CIA=America when it’s CIA = ANTI-America. They do everything we tell them not to.

    I refer you to the Bush’s “Businessman’s Coup” HW Bush, and his best friends like PNAC’s Dick Cheney.

    • Assange Created The ‘Fifth Estate’ – Ex-CIA Analyst (RT)

    He’s part of it, I wouldn’t say he created it though. It’s always been running with the Village Voice running articles on the Contras, School of Americas, and Ollie Iran-Contra later among many things (Often Palestinian). That’s why we have free speech. The problem is the Population was derelict of duty, not that the papers didn’t exist.

    “It’s very clear that the intelligence services have a lot of influence over what goes out into the media.”

    He should keep up. It’s very important that like Tim Pool last week, there is NO readership. Without USAID, all of it vanished. That proves what McGovern is saying, and that’s great, but really it’s important that WE’RE WINNING. Bigly. Let’s see, we have the most Free Speech, the most media protection, the most availability of Guns UNDER ORANGE HITLER, ‘cause, you know, that’s what Hitler does/is. While places of Non-Hitler, of Moral majesty, arrest 50 people a day for speech and de-bank them if they visit Ottawa in the winter. That’s what non-fascists, non-Hitlers do. Say on TV, as Rees-Mogg did, that if they don’t like a pointless war with Russia, we will conscript and jail as many as necessary until they have an expansive war of aggression, anti-Hitler style, and divide and define everyone according to race, anti-Hitler style, and make them all carry (Vaccine, Digitial) I.D. cards, anti-Hitler style. That’s anti-Hitler.

    But Hitler is when you don’t do all, enforce the law but leave people alone.

    So McGovern could be doing a victory lap here in a dozen ways, we have turned the tide and while a long march to Berlin, got them on the run. The CIA, our sworn enemy of the American People, is losing everywhere but especially in the media. …And not because of Assange. Because of Assange PLUS everyone else, thousands of us. You too, because you are on this site, reading this section.

    Again, They’re not Mad. If they didn’t like it, they’d be mad and fix it. They’re not mad at all, so they DO like it. They do NOT want any one – even children – educated, and have clearly taken every dollar of that fortune from the state to prevent any education at all. …As competency at graduation in a dozen (Blue) cities is ZERO. Even randomly you’d do far better than that!

    However bad he’s saying, it’s worse. School is where you meet your drug dealer, your pedophile, your OnlyFans instructor, and are daily bullied and abused, mostly by the staff but at least with their lavish approval of abuse. It’s quite possible prison itself is preferable. Having sub-zero education is actually the least of their crimes.

    Britain leads Western media’s demise through ‘fear porn’ narrative
    Contact us: info@strategic-culture.su

    Ian Proud’s arrest by secret police at a London airport marks a new low in how far the deep state can go to control a false narrative. But it also shows a new level of fear.

    As mad as it sounds, it does appear that Western European nations at least are preparing themselves to go to war with Russia at some point in the not-too-distant future. What is particularly worrying is there seems to be a distinct vacuum in all areas of what we could broadly call ‘media’ in questioning this narrative. Thirty years ago it was considered normal for journalists to be the source of vexing questions towards state actors and to generally be a pain in the arse as they questioned every decision made and every idea presented. It was our job to be anti-establishment and to take a very cynical view of “policy”. There was nothing remarkable about this. It was what we did. Being despised by the greater powers was part of the job; working anti-social hours and having few friends also came with it.

    Today there are no journalists in what we call ‘mainstream’ media doing this. They have been replaced by younger, more social-media-savvy ‘content creators’ who believe that journalism is more or less a grammatical role, where the raw material is handed to you with all the information therein, and the role of the journalist is simply to refine it to the style of the day for mass consumption.

    The danger of this transition is that nearly all of what we are being presented with as news is actually fake, or at best heavily redacted to keep the masses where the elite want them to be: restrained, prepped and misinformed.

    The Ukraine war is an excellent example. The main reason why people in the U.S. and UK are so fabulously biased against Russia and are so sympathetic towards the corrupt elite in Kiev is that for years they have been brainwashed with ‘news’ about Russia which has been negative and which cunningly feeds a racist bias – a prejudice which has been cultivated over at least a decade, if not more. The result is that now a number of lies have become established in newsrooms where journalists, even those who know, simply navigate around nuance and present a fairy-tale story, designed to be understood by the masses who have no other sources of information to even question it.

    Just recently, Western news outlets reported a “plague” in Russia, with stories about a “lockdown”, following a case of a worker in a laboratory dying of pneumonia in circumstances which are still not certain. Western media, as part of their role to keep Russia-phobia at its peak, are so locked and loaded that their ‘hair-trigger’ reactions to bad news stories from Russia are understandable. They are also hungry for clickbait, and such stories feed a starved audience which has already had its first fix of such COVID hysteria stories and wants more. The truth is entirely immaterial. Hysteria and lies are what’s being fed at a feverish rate by ‘content creators’ red in tooth and claw, foaming at the mouth with their desire to serve the deep state and the elites who have invested so much in an agenda.

    The contrast between Russia and the West is interesting, though, when we look at media. In Russia just recently, the BBC correspondent based in Moscow made the internet buzz on social media with his short interview with Russia’s foreign minister, who was kind enough to answer his loaded question about Russia’s war ideology with Ukraine. What absolutely no one noted was how Russia is happy to accommodate foreign journalists who have such a distinct agenda to feed the Russia-phobia back home, while Russian journalists have been banned in those EU capitals for years. Old Europe, which once held such values as a free press so dearly, has adopted the Soviet model, while Russia is actually more advanced when it comes to such tenets of what we expect in a democracy. Russia has no fear of the awkward questions, unlike the West.

    We should be asking ourselves who really benefits from a war with Russia.

    Is it too sceptical and ‘conspiracy theorising’ to assume that the industrial military complex has been successfully lobbying for such a war for AT LEAST a decade, and critically, it succeeded in convincing the intelligence and military establishment in the UK to use its leverage with media to provide journalists with the raw material which enhances a prejudice against Russia?

    Normally such an idea could be dismissed as pure nonsense. But just consider how far the UK, for example, has gone to eradicate all media coverage which could be deemed as at least leaning towards Russia – or even simply just holding the UK government to account by asking the questions that British journalists have stopped asking. If the elite in the UK who control the loss-making newspapers (think about that) are so sure of their rationale that Russia is the enemy whom we must go to war with, why are they so terrified of journalists – or anyone, for that matter – simply holding a view with questions the narrative?

    I can’t be the only Western pundit who believes that double agents Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia were not poisoned with nerve agent Novichok in Salisbury in 2018, which was reported at the time as “sparking a huge diplomatic crisis between Britain and Russia”. Isn’t the real story that British security chiefs decided, upon discovering that Sergei Skripal was actually a triple agent who was feeding information back to Moscow, that he was dispensable? And what better way to supposedly teach the Russians a lesson, while blaming Moscow for his death, than to murder him and his daughter using a nerve agent which either was Novichok – which a British lab just down the road from where the Skripals lived had conveniently sitting in a fridge – or a similar poison? What’s important to note about Novichok is that the victims usually die instantly upon contact with it. What is likely is that the Skripals were not poisoned by the Russian drug but a British version of another nerve agent. It is a shocking example of how poor British journalism is that hacks in the UK simply report the Skripal incident of Novichok poisoning without a single shred of evidence to back it up. They don’t even add a note of scepticism in their reporting about the drug and who is “claiming” that it is Novichok.

    We see the same shocking level of atrocious, biased reporting about the Ukraine war, which the British public were simply told through the media narrative was an “invasion” by Putin’s army. No background, no nuance, no glimpse of Russia’s perspective, as no one can cope, it would seem, with the story being clouded by facts.

    And it’s the same with the Russia “plague” story, as it was with the RAF base “attack” story recently, which was probably just local thieves buying contraband gasoline from corrupt U.S./UK soldiers looking to make a quick buck at the UK base. Notice how quickly Trump used the story as a basis to move all U.S. bombers off the base and back to U.S. soil, where they are completely useless in his so-called Middle East war. For Trump it was an opportunity for another media stunt which keeps him on the front pages and everyone guessing. He was probably grateful to the British for being offered the raw material. Another problem of this new generation of journalists is how compliant they are to report “news” which isn’t news at all, but just material used as a distraction, one day at a time. Trump is a master at manipulating media with this game, usually saying something so stupid and so controversial, which draws journalists away from doing real journalism. If you can occupy journalists with writing up stories about the latest idiotic comment or statement by Trump, then you control them as you control their time.

    Just look at how the Epstein story is not being reported and investigated. How Trump got off scot-free, as since February 28th journalists’ attention was diverted to the war with Iran – which is one of the reasons why Trump keeps this story alive with constant troop movements and talk of a massive attack after midterms. People have not made the link with the Epstein material being leaked and the war with Iran kicking off practically on the same day.

    For the British, the “Russians are coming” story has no cynical write-up by journalists who are 100 percent compliant with its erroneous narrative. The fear of elites in London is palpable, though, that it will always be questioned by fringe actors taking up bandwidth on social media. In the past this was the RT correspondent in London, who was able to ask difficult questions and generally be a thorn in the side of the Westminster village which controlled journalists like rats held in a basket. The main reason why RT was kicked out of the UK was that it offered a style of reporting on UK politics which had since left us thirty years ago – such is the murky world of the deep state and how it saw how in Brussels journalists could be manipulated until they become stenographers for it.

    Yet even with this new Stalinist style of media control in the UK, the state is wobbly. Even with the impressive set-up it has now of total media dominance, where journalists pump out total garbage about the Ukraine war or what they are told to write about the Middle East, still the fear is there.

    The example of video blogger Ian Proud, a former UK diplomat once based in Moscow, is worrying but poignant. Simply going to Moscow to attend a conference where Putin was speaking was enough to have him get the full Stasi treatment at Heathrow airport – detained and all digital content seized.

    Proud’s YouTube interviews, with his dowdy style of presenting, are proving to be popular as he simply offers a more sober view of both Russia and the UK Foreign Office, his former employer. These interviews are getting the attention of UK spooks, who are so nervous about the truth getting out about Russia and the shameful lies which are being packaged now for the British public, that they had to give Proud the American prison ‘shake down’ routine. Britain, a country which once was a beacon for the world with its view of liberty and in particular its passion for free speech, has fallen to a level which we can only compare to a West African country which has just had a new dictator installed, complete with black aviators and epaulettes. What the Proud Heathrow airport case shows is that this new regime in power will stop at nothing to control a narrative, and that the last bastion of free speech – YouTube podcasts – is the next target. The more successful Proud’s channel becomes, the more inevitable it is that he will be forced to leave the UK and settle in Russia to continue practising free speech. The shoulder tassels of Britain’s deep state will not sleep well until the country has a media narrative which would make Joe Stalin blush – and British journalists are helping them with this goal.

    Injecting Policy into Mass Ferment

    Injecting Policy into Mass Ferment

    In Italy, farmers, fishermen, and truck drivers have launched a national protest over the deadly economic conditions they face as a result of the European Union’s war-friendly policies, which are geared to bail out the bankrupt City of London and Wall Street banks. The Schiller Institute today sent a letter of support to the Italian strikers, noting that in France, Spain, Germany, and other countries across Europe, people are also taking to the streets “with different demands, but they are all united by opposition to policies that divert resources away from social services and production, while allocating more and more to rearmament and the financing of the war in Ukraine.” The Schiller Institute message adds: “We demand that resources be redirected away from rearmament and war, and toward adequate support for producers; and that we return to stable, low-cost energy supplies.”

    In Brazil, a boisterous youth movement quickly took to the streets after President Lula’s setback in the first round of that country’s presidential elections on Oct. 4, to mobilize to make sure that Lula wins the Oct. 25 second-round vote against Trump-backed neo-con Flávio Bolsonaro. A national wave of student protests is in the offing, with a major demonstration scheduled for tomorrow in Rio de Janeiro. Denouncing Flávio’s austerity and privatization policies, one graduate student group wrote: “Let’s take the public debate by storm and make sure Brazilian science is heard in this runoff election. We need to prevent what could be the greatest blackout of science the country has ever experienced.”

    The Schiller Institute’s International Youth Movement, which includes a number of Brazilian members, promptly sent a message of greetings and support to the planned demonstrations, stating that a defeat of Lula would be a defeat for the BRICS and for the entire Global South in its struggle to end 500 years of neo-colonialism once and for all. Lula made Brazil a founding member of the BRICS, and Flávio has announced he will pull the country out of the BRICS if he is elected. “For Brazil, the Global South, and humanity to prosper, we need a new international security and development architecture, one that will be win-win for all participants—and a permanent end to the austerity and attacks on sovereignty that Wall Street and the City of London are imposing everywhere,” the message states.

    In country after country, people are up in arms and searching for solutions. They know in Europe that their highly unpopular political leaders (such as Merz and Macron) are dragging them into a war with Russia that only a lunatic would want. They see that the banks and the hedge funds are evicting vulnerable seniors out of their apartments after tripling and quadrupling their rent, as is happening in Spain, and that millions of people can no longer afford to pay for both their rent and their food. In Brazil, they know that austerity and privatizations will only make things worse. In the United States, the skyrocketing price of diesel is making it likely that farmers will simply not bother planting wheat this season, because they lose money for every ton they produce. And measles, a disease which was officially declared eliminated in the United States in 2000, has now exploded in New York State, Pennsylvania, and elsewhere, thanks to the medievalist anti-science and budget-cutting policies coming from Washington.

    All of this ferment is very dangerous… and at the same time an opportunity not to be missed. As Lyndon LaRouche repeatedly explained, for example in a March 2, 2011 speech headlined “The Mass Strike Calls For Real Solutions:” “When you have a mass-strike phenomenon, it can go bad, too. One case, for example, the French Revolution, was a mass-strike phenomenon, which went bad…. So, when you get a mass strike like this, a movement which we’re having now, which is coming on, if the nation-state system does not respond to the demands of the mass-strike movement, the mass-strike will turn into an obscene mass…. So therefore, we better listen to the mass-strike voices now, while there’s still time to do so. We now have to offer real solutions.”

    What the Schiller Institute, and other organizations associated with the thinking of Lyndon LaRouche, are now doing, is injecting the urgently needed real solutions into this ferment, to make sure humanity arrives in the safe port of a new international security and development architecture.

    Dear D:

    Is this what your Trump is up to?
    austerity and attacks on sovereignty that Wall Street and the City of London are imposing everywhere

    Are you sure he is working for the benefit of America?

    We have been brainwashed

    The result is that now a number of lies have become established in newsrooms where journalists, even those who know, simply navigate around nuance and present a fairy-tale story, designed to be understood by the masses who have no other sources of information to even question it.

    No background, no nuance, no glimpse of Russia’s perspective, as no one can cope, it would seem, with the story being clouded by facts.

    And it’s the same with the Russia “plague” story,

    as it was with the RAF base “attack” story recently, which was probably just local thieves buying contraband gasoline from corrupt U.S./UK soldiers looking to make a quick buck at the UK base.
    Notice how quickly Trump used the story as a basis to move all U.S. bombers off the base and back to U.S. soil,
    where they are completely useless in his so-called Middle East war.
    For Trump it was an opportunity for another media stunt which keeps him on the front pages and everyone guessing.
    He was probably grateful to the British for being offered the raw material.
    Another problem of this new generation of journalists is how compliant they are to report “news” which isn’t news at all, but just material used as a distraction, one day at a time.

    Trump is a master at manipulating media with this game, usually saying something so stupid and so controversial, which draws journalists away from doing real journalism.
    If you can occupy journalists with writing up stories about the latest idiotic comment or statement by Trump, then you control them as you control their time.

    across Europe, people are also taking to the streets “with different demands,
    but they are all united by opposition to policies that divert resources away from social services and production,
    while allocating more and more to rearmament and the financing of the war in Ukraine.”
    The Schiller Institute message adds: “We demand that resources be redirected away from rearmament and war, and toward adequate support for producers; and that we return to stable, low-cost energy supplies.”

    In country after country, people are up in arms and searching for solutions.

    What the Schiller Institute, and other organizations associated with the thinking of Lyndon LaRouche, are now doing, is injecting the urgently needed real solutions into this ferment, to make sure humanity arrives in the safe port of a new international security and development architecture.

    “Is this what your Trump is up to?”

    I don’t understand. We’re getting rich AF. So is Venezuela. Mexico is getting the cartels kicked out. Russia gets high oil prices to fund the war, China gets no war at all.

    The only people suffering and on austerity is not JUST those who sacked and pillaged their own people and played the fool these 30 years, but are STILL doing it. They’re welcome to work and not arson. We won’t mind!

    I mean, if we can do it, so can you. Steel mills, jobs, “Not Arson” these are not some strange alien tech. It’s not a secret but open source knowledge that you too can take advantage of. Stop Stealing. That’s it. Then everything works instantly.

    So I mean, if your house and family suck, what does that have to do with me? I ain’t you daddy. Figure it out. Ignore us and clean your own room, guy. Canada is worse than even Europe, which seems a nearly impossible achievement. Grow cows, don’t kill them. Build plants, don’t level and shutter them. Do work, don’t demand handouts. Result: $3.99 Porterhouse steak. By the dozens.

    Interesting that I got the %20 in the copy and paste of the comment from D
    I usually only see this from international sources like Pepe

    Anyway my response to D is yes someone is robbing us here as the price of beef here is only affordable for the Epstein class and minions

    The Epic of Gilgamesh is the oldest surviving story in human history. Written in ancient Mesopotamia more than four thousand years ago, it tells of a tyrannical king of the city of Uruk, and the wild man Enkidu who was created to bring him to his knees. What followed was a friendship that would take both men to the very ends of the earth, in search of the one thing no king can ever claim: eternal life.

    It predates Homer by more than a thousand years, and it was already ancient when the earliest books of the Bible were being written. It also contains the earliest known account of a great flood, a story that would later find its echo in the tale of Noah. Lost for two thousand years beneath the sands of Mesopotamia, the epic was recovered by chance in the nineteenth century among the ruins of the Assyrian city of Nineveh, preserved on twelve clay tablets in the wreckage of a burned library.

    In this video, we tell the entire story of the Epic of Gilgamesh from beginning to end. The tyranny of a king who worked his own people to death. The creation of Enkidu from clay and sent to humble him. The friendship that changed both men forever. The journey through mountains no mortal had ever crossed. And the desperate quest for a life beyond death itself.

    A blonde raccoon? No I haven’t!

    But do blonde raccoons have more fun?

    But we did have a black and white squirrel named “Percey” for a few years though!

    How is the moose hunt going?

    Moose meat is healthier than beef too!

    The closest moose around here lives in Algonquin Park!

    I would think after 100 years, the moose in Newfoundland are genetically disposed to disappear during hunting season!
