British ports could face up to 7,000 lorry queues if businesses do not cooperate and get proper paperwork to make it through the county of Kent, according Minister for Cabinet Office Michael Gove. “The biggest potential cause of disruption are traders not being ready for controls implemented by EU Member States on 1 January 2021,” Gove wrote to British businesses in a letter leaked this week, laying out a “worst case scenario” for Brexit. It is essential that traders act now and get ready for new formalities. These formalities will include an internal border of sorts, that will sport police and […]

The recently formed US Space Force has deployed troops to the Arabian Peninsula as its first foreign mission. Earlier this month a squadron of 20 “core space operators” were stationed at the Al-Udeid Air Base in Qatar. Enlisted and commissioned officers assigned to the 16th Expeditionary Space Control Flight and the 609th Air Operations Centre joined the US Space Force during ceremonies at the base. Several more squadrons are expected to arrive at the base and US Air Force Secretary Barbara Barrett said the Space Force would comprise about 16,000 air force and civilian personnel. The bases’ Director, Colonel Todd Benson, […]
“That’s an ongoing challenge. Public information is probably the best inoculator against the effectiveness of this. But we have to balance that with not losing access to information,” Rubio said after a two-hour Intelligence Committee briefing with Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe and William Evanina, the nation’s top counterintelligence official. “The difference is that the victim here is the American public,” Rubio added. “So it’s a different balance. It’s a struggle. It’s a brand new challenge.” Both Rubio and Warner have pushed the intelligence community to reveal more information publicly about foreign election meddling, but in a way that does […]
Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron has warned the public to ignore the celebrities, online influencers, and other activists who are attempting to shape public opinion on the Breonna Taylor controversy, saying that they don’t know the facts of the case. Daniel Cameron said during a press conference Wednesday that Hollywood stars will try to influence the public’s feelings about the explosive case. “There will be celebrities, influencers, and activists who having never lived in Kentucky, will try to tell us how to feel, suggesting they understand the facts of this case and that they know our community and the commonwealth better […]
Authored by Ryan McMaken via The Mises Institute, The United States has always had a love affair with certain generals. George Washington, of course, was immensely popular, and thirteen US presidents were generals before they were president. But prior to the Second World War, generals as a group were not revered or treated with any particular veneration or respect. In fact, in the nineteenth century, full-time US military officers were often treated with suspicion and contempt. While state militia officers were regarded as indispensable night watchmen who preserved order, the full-time government employees who served in the federal military were often derided as lazy […]
On Wednesday, a hotly anticipated probe by Senate Republicans into corruption allegations against Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden and his son, Hunter, reported no evidence of wrongdoing. However, one analyst told Sputnik that investigators arrived at this conclusion by “moving the goalposts. The white-hot core of the impeachment of US President Donald Trump last December was his pushing the Ukrainian president to investigate the Bidens’ potentially corrupt behavior. Hunter Biden had become a board member of natural gas company Burisma Holdings, which does business in Ukraine, in the aftermath of the 2014 coup d’etat against Ukrainian President Vyktor Yanukovych, which was […]
As the U.S. Senate barrels toward confirming a new Supreme Court justice before Election Day, Senate Democrats face mounting pressure from their party’s activist base to take drastic measures to not only to fight the confirmation process but literally not partake in it. A boycott of all hearings for President Trump’s nominee to the high court is currently a pipe dream among a cadre of prominent progressives. But as elected Democrats weigh all of the available options to resist Republicans’ Supreme Court pick, Hill aides say that there has been talk about the idea. The notion hasn’t been discussed formally by […]

MakerDAO will not compensate victims of March 12’s “Black Thursday” flash crash that left some of the decentralized finance (DeFi) platform’s investors out $8.33 million, according to a vote that closed Tuesday. The Maker community had initially voted in early April to refund sunken investors. Nearly six months later and the community – represented by current holders of Maker’s MKR governance tokens – concluded a final vote to give zero compensation for lost funds. Some 65% of votes opted for zero compensation, with the next two options for partial compensation receiving 18% and 15%, respectively. The vote itself was dominated by large […]
The Florida Attorney General on Wednesday ordered an investigation into Mike Bloomberg for pledging $16 million to help convicted felons vote in the November election. This comes after a request from Republican Governor Ron DeSantis to review the “recent allegations” found in a WaPo article. Billionaire and failed presidential hopeful Michael Bloomberg raised $16 million to help pay the fines for 32,000 black and Hispanic felons so they can vote for Joe Biden in the 2020 election. In 2018, Florida voted to allow for felons who have completed their sentences to regain their voting rights back, however they must pay outstanding […]
Iranian military spokesman Abolfazi Shekarchi said that his country has transferred its expertise in defence technology to Yemen so that the Yemeni people can make missiles and drones by themselves. “We do not send missiles to Yemen but they can now make them themselves to fire them on their enemies’ heads,” Shekarchi said during a televised programme. He added that his country supports Yemen and the Yemeni people and all those who confront the United States and Israel. The Iranian official noted that the economic situation does not allow his country to offer everything for free to its allies, and that […]
“The hits just keep coming,” said Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas), who said trying to follow the frenetic news cycles has been like “drinking out of a water hose.” “Just when you think you have it figured out, something happens,” added Sen.

Dr. Anthony Fauci appeared visibly shaken after Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky.) called out his sycophantic praise of New York Governor Andrew Cuomo’s coronavirus response.

Authored by Chris Martenson via PeakProsperity.com, How does one ‘get ahead’ during hard times? Look, I’m a systems guy. I think in systems terms. You should as well. Why? Because we’re entering a period of time when the major systems that have supported humanity are going to fail. Or, put more accurately: they are already failing.

Outraged that Kentucky authorities did not charge anyone with murdering Breonna Taylor, activists have egged on Black Lives Matter protesters with incendiary messages and called for riots in other cities – while blaming Russia. Taylor, 26, was shot and killed in March, during what was reported to be a “no-knock” drug raid. On Wednesday, however, Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron said the police had properly introduced themselves before Taylor’s boyfriend opened fire on them. One former officer was charged for recklessly shooting through walls, but the crossfire that killed Taylor was ruled justified. It did not take long for outraged activists […]
(Natural News) A bombshell US Senate report based on months of investigations has now been released, detailing the Biden family’s extensive ties to a “vast financial network” that the Bidens had put in place during the Obama administration, involving hundreds of millions of dollars in illicit financial transactions that tie the Bidens to extortion, bribery, kickbacks, money laundering and numerous international crimes.

The right of the Palestinian people to have a state with Jerusalem as its capital is not subject to bargain, the Algerian president said on Wednesday, Anadolu reports.

On Sept. 15, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain signed US-brokered normalization agreements with Israel at […]
The social media giants — Facebook, Google’s YouTube, and Twitter — have, under pressure from the advertising industry, agreed to a set of “common definitions” for allegedly “hateful” and “harmful” content and to “harmonize” reporting standards for such content across the industry.

WASHINGTON — While the phrase “tsunami of data” seems to have exited everyday use by Defense Department officials, the problem remains the same: The Pentagon simply cannot exploit the sheer amount of information that comes in every day to its fullest. It’s a challenge that will only get worse as more sources of information come online, with each branch having its own data sets, which often don’t talk to each other. At the same time, the lack of ability to properly sort, catalog and exploit the data means the department cannot fully achieve its goals of using artificial intelligence to its […]

Sharpton said, “I think it’s grossly insufficient. It does not deal with the fact that the life of Breonna Taylor was taken. It does not address her being a victim of being killed. The value of her life is not at all addressed in these charges. You could get endangerment if you shot in the air at nothing. You took a woman’s life. A woman who was in no way should […]
WASHINGTON ― The Pentagon’s shared supply chains with the battered commercial aviation side will suffer if Washington doesn’t provide it with aid soon, the Aerospace Industries Association warned Wednesday. The trade group released its recovery plan for the broad aerospace and defense sector as Congress has begun a fierce Supreme Court replacement battle, shifting attention away from passing another stimulus package to defray the impact of the coronavirus pandemic. But AIA President and CEO Eric Fanning suggested some aviation companies have little time to wait. “If the commercial side doesn’t get some relief, you are going to see companies in the […]

Competitors in the Covid-19 vaccine race are publishing clinical protocols in hopes of securing lucrative emergency approval, which Russia’s Sputnik V was previously attacked for seeking. This time, however, the media are quiet. The frontrunners in the US and western Europe’s quest to develop a coronavirus vaccine – Pfizer, AstraZeneca, and Moderna – have published their trial protocols in response to growing public unease over the rapid rollout of the promised coronavirus magic bullet. They reveal an overwhelming emphasis on being first to secure emergency approval from the relevant regulators, suggesting the companies’ goal is maximum profits rather than ensuring the […]
(Natural News) The home of a Utah man who hosts a popular YouTube channel for children was raided last week after local law enforcement officers arrested him on suspicion of trying to “have sex with children.” John Robert Krampf, 64, creator of “The Happy Scientist,” was reportedly found to be in possession of “thousands upon thousands” of child pornography images, which were saved on numerous hard drives found at his residence. Krampf, along with 11 other suspects, was arrested as part of a Craigslist sting in St. George, which later revealed that he was in possession of some 20 hard drives, […]

FranceONU / Martin Loper. The ‘western’ countries, i.e. the United States and its ‘allies’, love to speak of a ‘rules based international order’ which they say everyone should follow. That ‘rules based order’ is a way more vague concept than the actual rule of law: The G7 is united by its shared values and commitment to a rules based international order. That order is being challenged by […]
Amsterdam claims the Royal Netherlands Air Force (RNLAF) was unable to participate in the US’ NATO-inclusive Operation Allied Sky because its US-made F-35 Lightning II aircraft had vulnerable fuel tanks due to pipe damage of unexplained origins, making them unsafe to fly in thunderstorms. “Damaged pipes have been found on F-35A fighters. These are pipes from the On-Board Inert Gas Generation System (OBIGGS) in a fuel tank,” read a Friday release issued by the Dutch Ministry of Defense. “All countries with F-35As were advised to avoid flights near storm cells and to protect the aircraft on the ground by a shelter […]
A group of Saudi dissidents, most of them in exile, on Wednesday announced the formation of a party to push for political reform in Saudi Arabia in defiance of de facto ruler Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman who has moved to crush any dissent, Reuters reports. The world’s top oil exporter and US ally is an absolute monarchy without an elected parliament or political parties. Past attempts to organise politically in the Gulf state in 2007 and 2011 were suppressed and members arrested. The National Assembly Party (NAAS) declaration called for an elected parliament and constitutional safeguards to ensure separation of […]
Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron explained Wednesday afternoon that no police officers would be charged directly for the death of Breonna Taylor in Louisville in March because they knocked before entering her boyfriend’s apartment. Taylor, 26, an emergency medical technician, was killed in the crossfire when her boyfriend opened fire at police, thinking they were intruders. A grand jury indicted one officer, Brett Hankison, for wanton endangerment for allegedly firing into neighboring apartments. Two other officers involved, Sgt. Jonathan Mattingly and Detective Myles Cosgrove, were not charged. Cameron convened a special press conference to announce the grand jury’s decision, and to answer journalists’ […]
Airlines desperate to jumpstart business are pleading for universal coronavirus testing for departing passengers, according to the International Air Transport Association. They believe that the 100% adoption of rapid antigen tests could be the key to removing quarantines and getting more passengers flying again, according to Bloomberg. Currently, quarantine restrictions are what is “killing” the travel market, according to IATA chief Alexandre de Juniac. Heading into the fall, names like Lufthansa and Air France have warned of continued layoffs, removal of planes from their fleets and abbreviated flight schedules. The industry continues to seek a unified global solution to air travel that it […]
US President Donald Trump has repeatedly accused Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden and his son of engaging in corruption in Ukraine during the administration of US President Barack Obama, allegations that the Dem presidential hopeful rejects. Senate Republicans have issued a report lashing out at former vice president and current Democratic presidential hopeful Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, over his role on the board of a Ukrainian energy company, during the Obama administration. The report suggests that Hunter Biden’s position on the board of the Burisma company was “awkward” and “problematic”, and allegedly interfered with “efficient execution of policy”. At the […]

Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron has announced that there will be no charges filed against two of the Louisville police officers involved in the shooting of Breonna Taylor, while the third is being charged with “wanton endangerment.” Detective Brett Hankison has been indicted on three counts of “wanton endangerment in the first degree” by a grand jury. Following the announcement on Wednesday Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron told reporters that the night Breonna Taylor died, police did knock and announce themselves before Breonna’s boyfriend shot at them. This fact was verified by an independent witness to the events who lived nearby. […]

Army Futures Command shows off Project Convergence in new video Army Futures Command’s Project Convergence is AI and machine learning on the battlefield. WASHINGTON — The teaming of helicopters and unmanned aircraft just a few years ago meant that a pilot could control a drone to fly ahead to conduct reconnaissance.

But at Project Convergence at Yuma Proving Ground, Arizona, this month, manned-unmanned teaming became something much bigger and far more advanced. The Army’s Future Vertical Lift team rolled into the service’s weeks-long “campaign of learning” […]
A bombshell report from the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs (HSGAC) and the Committee on Finance makes a series of damning new allegations against Hunter Biden, the son of Democrat presidential nominee. The investigation launched after Finance Committee Chairman Charles Grassley (R-IA) publicly raised conflict-of-interest concerns about the sale of a U.S. company to a Chinese firm with ties to Hunter Biden a month before Congress was notified about a whistleblower complaint that was the catalyst for Democrats’ impeachment of President Donald Trump. The Senate’s investigation relied on records from the U.S. government, Democrat lobbying groups, and interviews of numerous […]
Could Tesla be The Big Short 2.0? In a series of Tweets that started early Monday morning, Michael Burry, M.D. – of “The Big Short” fame – appears to have a healthy and growing skepticism of Tesla brewing.

(Natural News) What has transpired over the past several months in far-left cities like Portland, Seattle and New York City is evidence that the governments in charge of these locales have allowed them to become anarchy zones, according to the Department of Justice (DOJ). In a Sept. 21 announcement, DOJ officials suggested that all the “protesting” – meaning chaos, looting and rioting – has so degraded the quality of life in these cities that they can no longer be regarded as existing under the rule of law, especially since government officials are doing nothing to clean up the streets. “When state […]

Long-time Trump ally and former Fox News regular Joe diGenova lashed out at the conservative-leaning network on Wednesday, claiming Fox News “fears George Soros” and wondering aloud what the liberal philanthropist “has on” Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott. For more than a week now, right-wing media outlets and pro-Trump pundits have railed against Fox News for an on-air segment that featured multiple hosts shutting down Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich just as he began a conspiratorial rant against Soros—who has long been the target of anti-Semitic tropes from the right. After Gingrich asked if the topic was “verboten,” the discussion […]

Algeria has accused the French media of attempting to tarnish the country’s image and weaken the people’s trust in state institutions every time an election approaches in the North African state. The accusation was made by the Ministry of Communications in response to a documentary, Algeria: Country of Revolutions, which aired last Sunday on French TV channel M6. The documentary depicted the 2019 popular movement in Algeria, with testimonies from two young men and a young woman about the country’s social, economic and political conditions. The three also talked about their aspirations, with one dreaming of the day when women’s rights […]
“She may think she has a quiver. We do too,” he added. When pressed this weekend on whether Democrats would try to use impeachment as a delay tactic in the Supreme Court battle, Pelosi didn’t shoot it down, telling ABC “This Week” that Democrats “have arrows in our quiver that I’m not about to discuss right now.” But it is not an idea being discussed by Democratic leadership, nor would it prevent the Senate from filling the vacancy left by late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. And the motion to vacate isn’t being seriously considered by GOP leadership, either. McCarthy, […]
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — A Kentucky grand jury on Wednesday indicted a single police officer for shooting into neighboring apartments but did not move forward with charges against any officers for their role in Breonna Taylor’s death. A grand jury announced that Officer Brett Hankison was charged with three counts of wanton endangerment in connection to the police raid on the night of March 13. Neither the grand jury nor the presiding judge elaborated on the charges. State Attorney General Daniel Cameron scheduled a news conference in the capital, Frankfort, to discuss the grand jury’s decision. Protesters have consistently pressured him […]

The man apparently became embroiled in an argument with a Starbucks employee after being told to wear a mask. The elderly man is seen remonstrating with officers as they put him in handcuffs.

The partisan rhetoric just went to ’11’ as House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy threatened to oust Nancy Pelosi from the speakership if Democrats try to impeach Trump (or any of his admin, such as AG Barr) in an attempt to delay the Supreme Court nomination process.

Feinstein sometimes gets confused by reporters’ questions, or will offer different answers to the same question depending on where or when she’s asked. Her appearance is frail.
