American cities are preparing for civil unrest during and after Election Day, as the specter of turmoil looms over a nation divided and President Trump reportedly plans to declare a premature victory Tuesday night if he’s “ahead,” despite uncounted ballots. Some urban areas readying for chaos include Minneapolis, where clashes erupted this summer after the killing of George Floyd, and Kenosha, Wisconsin, where 17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse fatally shot two protesters, and injured a third, during a fiery demonstration against the police shooting of Jacob Blake. The city of Kenosha—where Trump planned one final campaign rally Monday night—said it would install police […]

PayPal’s cryptocurrency service is going to expand rapidly in 2021, executives said on the payments giant’s third-quarter earnings call Monday evening.

There is no moral or ethical justification for the killing of innocent people, anywhere. Therefore, the murder of three people in the French city of Nice on October 29 must be wholly and unconditionally rejected as a hate crime, especially as it was carried out in a holy place, the Notre Dame Basilica. However, we would be remiss to ignore the political context that led a 21-year-old Tunisian refugee to allegedly stage a knife attack against peaceful worshippers in Nice. While it is fairly easy to recognize the individual culprit behind such a violent event, it takes much introspection, let alone […]
Multiple radio stations were forced to add a disclaimer to an advertisement sponsored by Maine Democrat Senate candidate Sara Gideon after it was brought to the radio stations’ attention that the advertisement, targeting Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME), was deceiving to the point that it could violate campaign laws.

Joe Biden’s Twitter account received a ‘sizable boost’ within two weeks of selecting Kamala Harris as his running mate on August 12 – thanks to ‘tens of thousands of fake followers’ purchased from rural Indian troll farms. According to Zenger News (via Newsweek), a large number of Biden follower accounts appear to have been created exclusively for that purpose – with many coming from small villages where English-speakers are rare. A Zenger News investigation reveals that Biden’s increasing social media footprint in India came from the country’s infamous troll farms boosting his candidacy.

The day before the 2016 election, Gordon Hintz remembers feeling insecure when it came to Hillary Clinton’s chances at winning Wisconsin.

He remembers knocking on doors and finding “gender bias, Clinton fatigue and a rawness in the electorate that Trump was exploiting.” And as Wisconsin prepares again to be a closely watched swing state on election night, Hintz is among the […]

A simple majority in the Senate is needed to pass reconciliation legislation, which makes it attractive for one party with complete power in Washington, though certain limitations apply. It can only be used to pass legislation that affects spending and revenues, while some areas like Social Security are off-limits. Democrats used the procedure to pass much of the Affordable Care Act. Republicans later made a failed attempt to repeal the health law through reconciliation, then used the procedure again to pass their 2017 tax overhaul, H.R. 1 (115).

For nearly two years, some Democrats have proposed packing the Court — that is, expanding the number of seats, and filling them with liberal justices — to overcome the current nominal conservative majority.

Authored by Charles Hugh Smith via OfTwoMinds blog, Wake up, America, and see the Fed for what it really is: a totalitarian tool of kleptocracy. You know what happens when fire suppression policies limit forest fires: deadwood piles up and all the trees killed by bark beetles are awaiting a spark to ignite. Sure enough, a random lightning strike provides the ignition, and the entire forest is consumed in an out-of-control conflagration made inevitable by the policy of suppressing fires as “bad” for lumber companies and tourism, i.e. the politically influential. This is a remarkably apt analogy for the central banks’ policy of suppressing business […]

Donald Trump loves his big political rallies and so do his supporters. Many people who have attended liken the rallies to music festivals or rock concerts. They’re also uniquely effective at garnering support, increasing turnout, and raising campaign contributions, according to a study by Harvard political scientist James Snyder and economist Hasin Yousaf of Australia’s University of New South Wales. No wonder Trump has been holding so many of them lately. “We find that Trump’s rallies produced a short-lived increase in his support over Clinton (especially among leaning Republicans), intention to vote (especially among strong Republicans), and individual campaign contributions for […]
WASHINGTON — Federal laws and long-standing custom generally leave the U.S. military out of the election process. But President Donald Trump’s unsubstantiated warnings about widespread voting irregularities have raised questions about a possible military role. If any element of the military were to get involved, it would likely be the National Guard under state control. These citizen soldiers could help state or local law enforcement with any major election-related violence. But the Guard’s more likely roles will be less visible — filling in as poll workers, out of uniform, and providing cybersecurity expertise in monitoring potential intrusions into election systems.

Israel is getting ever more concerned about the result of the US election tomorrow. It fears a win for Democrat candidate Joe Biden and the loss of its ally Donald Trump. In preparation for a Democrat victory, it is seeking closer cooperation with regional countries, greater influence within the Democratic Party, and positive contacts with Biden’s campaign team to negate the possibility of an anti-Israel foreign policy in Washington and an end to the US-Israel honeymoon. Among the Israeli concerns about a President Biden in the White House is that he may take the US back into the Iran nuclear deal […]

The president is barnstorming the country in the last days until the election, hitting critical swing-states important to his re-election.

Authored by Yves Smith via NakedCapitalism.com, I’m of two minds in writing this post, since anything short of Trump demonization is bizarrely treated as if it were support. And in the closing hours of the 2020 campaign, it’s managing to get even more fever-swampy out there. One curious element, at least if you are a news junkie, is how Trump fans don’t seem deterred by his poor poll numbers or the way the new Covid wave seems primed to cut even further into his backing. So the question then becomes is this seemingly misplaced optimism merely diehards being in their own […]
PARIS (Sputnik) – French Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin has specified that he will pay a visit to Moscow, during which he is expected to focus on possible deportation of Russia-born supporters of radical Islam, in two weeks.

France plans to ban Turkish far-right nationalist group the Grey Wolves, Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin said on Monday. A ban on the “particularly aggressive” Grey Wolves would be submitted to the French Cabinet on Wednesday, Darmanin told a National Assembly hearing on France’s fight against Islamist militants. The ban follows recent incidents in France involving the Grey Wolves group amid growing tensions between France and Turkey and over the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. In one incident last weekend, France 3 television reported that the Armenian memorial near Lyon was tagged with pro-Turkish slogans and inscriptions with the Grey Wolves’ name.

The United States and our allies are increasingly dependent on unfettered access to space. However, it has become abundantly clear that our space systems have significant cybersecurity vulnerabilities that our adversaries are eager to exploit. Earlier this year, William Akoto wrote about the growing constellations of satellites operated by private industry, led by SpaceX, Blue Origin and others: “If hackers were to take control of these satellites, the consequences could be dire. On the mundane end of scale, hackers could simply shut satellites down, denying access to their services. Hackers could also jam or spoof the signals from satellites, creating havoc […]
Gray wolves are left vulnerable after the Trump administration removed their protections. The species has been listed as endangered for over 45 years; this listing has been instrumental in protecting the animals from hunting and helping to recover dwindling population numbers. But last year, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service proposed to have the gray wolf removed from the Endangered Species Act. Following that proposal, the government took action in delisting the gray wolf as an endangered species last week. Continue reading below Our Featured Videos “Today’s action reflects the Trump Administration’s continued commitment to species conservation based on the parameters of the law […]
The Trump campaign released a statement Monday warning of the Democrats’ plot to “delegitimize” the election using propaganda and lawfare to compromise its integrity. Trump’s deputy campaign manager Justin Clark explained that the combination of low enthusiasm for Biden, virtually no ground game or field operations, and Democrat voters’ fears of voting in person spells trouble for Biden. “Democrats are panicking because Joe Biden has not run up a large enough lead in early votes in battleground states and they know that President Trump’s in-person votes on Election Day will make up the difference and propel him to victory,” Clark stated.

While the Wall Street crowd has since moved on from shorting malls, aka the “Big Short 2.0”, in some distinct cases with massive profits, to shorting hotels which as we first presented here earlier this year has emerged as the “Big Short 3.0” trade, this weekend we got a vivid reminder of what Bloomberg dubbed “carnage” among mall tenants when two major mall landlords filed for bankruptcy this weekend, following their constantly growing list of bankrupt clients into Chapter 11 protection. Two mall REITs, Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust and CBL & Associates Properties filed for Chapter 11 protection on Sunday, […]
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has taken aim at the country’s establishment, calling Constitutional Court decisions against anti-corruption legislation a “conspiracy of old elites” to help the nation’s “untouchable caste.” On October 27, Ukraine’s Constitutional Court struck down a law that would punish government officials for inaccurately declaring personal assets, meaning that civil servants can no longer be criminally prosecuted for lying about their income. Zelensky believes that the judges were acting in their own private interests. “I know for sure that the demarche of the Constitutional Court is a public manifestation of a conspiracy of some of the old elites and oligarchs, […]
(Natural News) The Texas Army National Guard announced the deployment of up to 1,000 troops to five cities across the state ahead of the Nov. 3 elections. However, the Guard denied plans of sending them to polling places. The Guard’s activation was for post-election support for local law enforcement and the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) “to deter any civil disturbance,” retired Maj. Gen. James K. “Red” Brown told the San Antonio Express-News Oct. 26. Brown serves as the chief of staff to the Texas National Guard commander.

Is America being left behind? China is on the verge of issuing a central bank digital currency (CBDC) while America twiddles its thumbs. America needn’t worry. While it may look like a slacker, its approach to digital currency is probably the right one. J.P. Koning, a CoinDesk columnist, worked as an equity researcher at a Canadian brokerage firm and a financial writer at a large Canadian bank. He runs the popular Moneyness blog. That’s because there is no first-mover advantage to issuing a central bank digital currency. With many products, being the first out the door is important to achieving brand […]
PA AG Josh Shapiro The Democrats know President Trump is doing well in the battleground state of Pennsylvania which is why they are fighting to count ballots for up to three days after Election Day. Pennsylvania Republicans took the fight all the way up to the Supreme Court and last week the highest court of the land said that it will not fast track Republicans’ challenge to Pennsylvania’s extended deadline for absentee ballots. The justices did leave open the possibility that they would ultimately rule in favor of Pennsylvania Republicans. Justice Amy Coney Barrett, who was just sworn in, did not […]
As part of its global response to the coronavirus outbreak, the European Union (EU) donated €10 million ($11.6 million) to the Palestinian Authority (PA), the Office of the EU Representative said yesterday.

The EU said in a statement that this contribution is a clear message of the EU’s strong commitment to the Palestinian people at this critical time. “Over the years, the EU has invested in building the institutions of the future independent Palestinian state.

By Janet Phelan Mark Crispin Miller, who teaches a course on propaganda at New York University in the Media, Culture and Communication Department, has been notified that he is to undergo a review board hearing after one of his students called for his firing due to his comments about masks. According to Professor Miller, the student, Julia Jackson, only joined Miller’s course when it was into its second week.

On September 20, Jackson tweeted: @nyuniversity: an […]
The World Health Organization (WHO) recently admitted that lockdowns cause more harm than good. Following this announcement, one would have expected American politicians to immediately end the lockdowns. After all, the WHO ‘s pronouncements are considered infallible, so much so that social media sites silence anyone who dares challenge the great and powerful WHO. Yet, governors, mayors, and other government officials across the country are ignoring the WHO’s anti-lockdown position. Instead of admitting that the lockdowns were a mistake, many in the political class, which includes a disturbing number of medical professionals whose positions and prestige depend on government, claim that […]
An apparent paradox is emerging in the world of futures positioning. According to the latest CFTC Commitment of Traders data, after being stuck in a tight range for much of 2020, speculative investors boosted bullish wagers on S&P emini futures to the highest level in almost two years, a that most professional investors saw the potential for the S&P 500 index to bounce back from a two-month slump. As Bloomberg notes, net long positions in S&P 500 e-mini futures in the week to Oct. 27 were the most since January 2019. Unfortunately, as we have discussed in recently, looking at futures […]
The New York Times has unveiled the results of a super-scientific poll revealing who voters with a given name are likely to vote for in the US presidential election, one-upping its earlier poll on the contents of voters’ fridges. The Times data-mined two months’ worth of election polling conducted in partnership with Siena College on Monday to determine which first names made voters most likely to support incumbent Republican President Donald Trump or Democratic challenger Joe Biden. Rather than simply present the results, the paper of record plunged further into Buzzfeed territory by asking readers to guess at the “patterns that […]

Florida Sen. Marco Rubio has seemingly joined Donald Trump in endorsing vehicular intimidation of political rivals just days before the presidential election. Hours after President Trump defended a group of his supporters who were seen swarming a Biden campaign bus in Texas over the weekend, forcing the Democratic nominee to cancel a rally event, the Republican lawmaker also threw in his support of the harassment—and stressing “we love what they did.” At a Sunday night rally for Trump’s re-election campaign at Miami-Opa-Locka Executive Airport, Rubio brought up the video that shows a blockade of pro-Trump demonstrators ambushing a Biden-Harris campaign bus […]

Twitter has waged a jihad against conservatives and a jihad against the truth since Donald Trump won the election in 2016. Since that time, it has been well documented that Twitter has silenced, censored and banned conservative content. Meanwhile, violent content and threats by radical far left extremists like Antifa and Black Lives Matter goes mostly untouched. Two weeks ago Twitter censored a report by The New York Post on Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden’s questionable and likely corrupt international business dealings.

There is no doubt that Emmanuel Macron is in a crisis with his racist self, first and foremost, followed by a crisis with his people. The former is deep rooted.

He made false promises, including a guarantee that they could practice their religion freely and enjoy freedom of expression. When he was asked on TV for his view of veiled Muslim women, he answered that he respects and appreciates them and that it is a personal […]
