We’ve just come across a document hosted by the Department of Homeland Security, posted March 2023, but written in 2007, that amounts to a full-blown corporatist imposition on the US, abolishing anything remotely resembling the Bill of Rights and Constitutional law. It is right there in plain sight for anyone curious enough to dig.
There is nothing in it that you haven’t already experienced with lockdowns. What makes it interesting are the participants in the forging of the plan, which is pretty much the whole of corporate America as it stood in 2007. It was a George W. Bush initiative. The conclusions are startling.

Media reports suggest that Trump’s would-be assassin is dead.
That is simply not true. Trump’s assassin is not dead.
The name of Trump’s assassin is the CIA. If it is not the CIA proper, it is some similarly vile governmental entity that operates in the shadows to undermine the interests of the American dinner table.
Trump’s assassin is not dead. They are very much alive.

The proliferation of wireless communications, which has led to an unprecedented rise in ambient radiofrequency radiation, could be the cause of decreasing insect populations, researchers say.
Scientific literature suggests that the rapid decline of global insect populations may be a blaring indicator of the potentially catastrophic consequences of rising radiofrequency (RF) radiation levels.

NIMA ROSTAMI ALKHORSHID: Michael, let’s get started with the SCO summit. And right after that, we’re having the NATO summit. It seems that NATO is fighting on behalf of the United States to try to preserve the U.S. unipolar hegemony over Eurasia and the Global South, isn’t it?
MICHAEL HUDSON: Well, for the last few months, we’ve been discussing how the United States and its allied Western neoliberal economies have driven the non-Western world, the global majority, into protecting themselves and breaking away. And they’ve been developing a whole array of how they’re going to go about splitting.

There is only one major social media platform that is relatively free of censorship. That is X, once known as Twitter, and owned by Elon Musk, who has preached free speech for years and sacrificed billions in advertising dollars in order to protect it. If we don’t have that, he says, we lose freedom itself. He also maintains that it is the best path to finding the truth.
The crisis that broke out after the attempt on Donald Trump’s life put the principle in motion. I was posting regular updates and never censored. I’m not aware of anyone who was. We were getting second-by-second updates in real time. The videos were flying along with every conceivable rumor, many false and then corrected, alongside free speech “spaces” in which everyone was sharing their views.
During this time, Facebook and its suite of services fell silent, consistent with the new ethos of all these platforms. The idea is to censor all speech until it is absolutely confirmed by officials and then permit only that which is consistent with the press releases.

Embattled President Biden opened up a meeting with a group of Democratic US representatives by challenging them to ask him “hard questions” about his candidacy and his fitness to serve — only to jump down the throat of a member who sought reassurance about the 81-year-old’s ability to serve as a strong commander-in-chief. His loss of temper and ill-preparedness for the meeting reportedly did nothing to bolster his audience’s confidence.

The people that guard our leaders are supposed to be the most highly trained security personnel in the world. So how could something like this have happened? As I mentioned in a previous article, I have been trying to put the pieces together. To me, it appears that we either just witnessed incompetence on an epic scale or something more insidious was going on out there. The American people deserve answers, and hopefully we will get them. But I think that one thing is clear. I don’t see any possible way that the head of the Secret Service, Kimberly Cheatle, can be allowed to keep her job. There is no way that this shooting would have happened the way that it did if competent people were running the show.

The more we learn about the attempt to kill Donald Trump, the more questions we have. Over the past couple of days, I have been digging very deeply into what just happened. To be honest, what I have discovered is extremely alarming. At this point, there is a growing consensus that either the Secret Service was grossly incompetent or some sort of very insidious plan was being carried out. I am going to share facts that have been documented, and I will allow my readers to come to their own conclusions.

Israel’s inability to solve the Palestinian issue except by apartheid and massacres has fostered a fascistic and racist political culture in the country. But this truth must be kept from Americans.
Several left-wing voices have said lately that Israel is falling apart. The society is torn over the war, the government is dominated by brutal racists, and the country’s only answer to the fundamental question – half the population is Palestinian – is apartheid and rolling massacres.

At least two infant deaths reported to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) as occurring after the babies mistakenly received Pfizer’s adult respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccine were likely caused instead by nirsevimab, the monoclonal antibody shot approved for infants and meant to prevent RSV.

The results from the first immunization campaign for nirsevimab, the monoclonal antibody shot approved to protect infants from RSV-related illness, raise questions about mass infant vaccination with the drug, according to a new preprint study.
The study by French scientist Hélène Banoun, Ph.D., which analyzed outcomes from the 2023-2024 respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) immunization campaign in the U.S., France, Spain and Luxembourg, contradicts some claims of success by U.S. public health agencies and medical associations.
