As more rapid at-home COVID tests are approved by American regulators, the Biden Administration is reportedly preparing another “investment” in rapid at-home tests (despite lingering criticisms about the frequency of false positives produced by these tests, helping to contribute to America’s COVID “casedemic”). According to Bloomberg, the Biden Administration is preparing to announce a $1 billion purchase of rapid at-home COVID tests with the intention of “expanding the availability of such products in the coming months”. Of course, as we have reported time and time again, the more testing, the more cases. With this latest investment (which has yet to be officially announced) the US will be on […]

One of the catalysts behind crypto’s impressive surge in the past week emerged last Friday, when the WSJ reported that the Biden admin was seeking to regulate stablecoin issuers as banks and was “considering ways to impose bank-like regulation on the cryptocurrency companies that issue stablecoins, including prodding the firms to register as banks.” Coming at the same time as both Jerome Powell and Gary Gensler said they did not seek to bank crypto, the news was confirmation that the regulatory apparatus was seeking to integrate the crypto space within the confines of the state – especially since taxes on cryptos […]
The Brazilian footballer who faces an attempted murder charge after kicking a referee in the back of the head has reportedly been temporarily released from prison, with local media claiming he had a history of violence. William Ribeiro caused outrage on Monday when footage of him attacking official Rodrigo Crivellaro after being booked for a foul in the second half went viral. The match between Sao Paulo-RS and Guarani, in Brazil’s southernmost state of Rio Grande do Sul, had to be called off as an unconscious Crivellaro was taken to hospital and Ribeiro was arrested. The referee was later released, and […]
(Natural News) In the latest installment of its “Covid-19 Vaccine Exposed” series, Project Veritas released a new 10-minute video depicting a Pfizer scientist telling the disturbing truth about his company’s Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) “vaccines.” Nick Karl explains to the interviewer that people’s natural antibodies are “probably better” than Pfizer’s mRNA injections at protecting against Chinese Virus infection – watch below: “When somebody is naturally immune – like they got covid – they probably have more antibodies against the virus,” Karl admitted. “When you actually get the virus, you’re going to start producing antibodies against multiple pieces of the virus […]

The strike is being led by the National Union of Metalworkers of South Africa. The refusal by employers to address the demands for a wage hike is being seen as a betrayal by the workers who had foregone last year’s wage hike to cushion the industry during the COVID-induced lockdown. The first day of the indefinite strike in South Africa’s engineering sector on Tuesday, October 5, saw workers in red T-shirts hit the streets in thousands demanding a wage hike. Marches and […]

NATO is taking the extraordinary step of kicking out eight members of Russia’s delegation to the military alliance over allegations that those supposed diplomats were acting as spies for the Kremlin. The officials, operating as representatives for Russia’s Mission to NATO, were actually undeclared Russian intelligence officers, a NATO official told The Daily Beast. The officials must leave their posts by October 31. The decision to remove the alleged spies from the alliance is in retaliation for Russia’s brazen activities in recent years, including conducting espionage and state-sanctioned killing operations, according to Sky News, which first reported the decision. “NATO’s policy […]

According to the Centers for Disease Control, the U.S. has recorded the highest homicide rate increase in modern history. One of the primary drivers for that spike is the demonization and defunding of police departments across the country. And when it comes to the demonization of police, the NFL’s hands are dirty. According to the CDC, the homicide rate for the U.S. rose 30 percent between 2019 and 2020, the highest jump in history. The previous high was the 20 percent hike seen from 2000 to 2001, but that was because of the horrendous terror attacks on the nation on Sept. […]

President Joe Biden on Wednesday hoped relief was coming for Americans still suffering from the coronavirus pandemic, even as the country passed a grim milestone for deaths from the virus in 2021. “God willing, I think we’re just about to turn the corner again on the pandemic,” Biden said during an event on the White House complex. Biden spoke about the pandemic as more than 353,000 coronavirus deaths have been reported since January 1, 2020, according to an ABC News story citing data from Johns Hopkins University, which is more than the 352,000 deaths in 2020. The news breaks as fewer […]
By Tyler Durden An accidentally unsealed court document reveals that the federal government secretly ordered Google to provide data on people searching specific search words or phrases, otherwise known as “keyword warrants,” according to Forbes.

In several instances, law enforcement investigators asked Google to identify anyone searching for specific keywords. The first case was in 2019 when federal investigators were on the hunt for men they believed sex-trafficked a minor. According to a search warrant, the minor went missing […]

FEMA can temporarily freeze the Constitution. If there were a nuclear […]

Turkey's presence in Syria's Idlib Governorate saved the lives of millions of civilians and prevented them from becoming displaced, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said yesterday. In an interview with a local magazine, Erdogan added that the international community cannot allow the Syrian crisis to continue more than the 10 years it has already lasted, stressing that there is a need to show a stronger will to find a political solution to the problem based on UN Security Council Resolution 2254, and in a way that meets the Syrian people's aspirations. Erdogan said Turkey's priority in Syria is combating terrorism and cleansing the region of "terrorist organisations". Turkey […]
WASHINGTON (AP) — Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell on Wednesday told Democrats he would allow an emergency debt limit extension into December, edging back from a perilous standoff by offering a potential path to avoid a federal default. A procedural vote on legislation that would suspend the debt limit for two years was abruptly delayed, and the Senate recessed so lawmakers could discuss next steps. “This will moot Democrats’ excuses about the time crunch they created and give the unified Democratic government more than enough time to pass standalone debt limit legislation through reconciliation,” McConnell said. It also will allow Republicans […]
ST. LOUIS, Mo. — The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency has a new strategy for tackling the torrent of data pouring into the organization from all over the world, and it relies on automation, artificial intelligence and improving access to information.

Hamas, the other Palestinian factions, civil society, public figures and writers who oppose the idea of having partial local elections are right to do so, because such polls seek to evade a comprehensive approach. They would also break the law, which requires elections for all municipal and village councils to be held on the same day, and not in stages unless there is a valid reason for doing otherwise. It is unacceptable for the Palestinian Authority to claim that the coronavirus is such a reason. Holding the elections in stages does not make it easier to fight the pandemic. The real […]

Why does the dollar bill in our pockets have value? According to some commentators, money has value because the government in power says so.

Obviously, this is not a good explanation of why money has value.1 The difference between Money and Other Goods Now, demand for a good arises from its perceived benefit. For instance, people demand food because of the nourishment it offers them once consumed. […]

The Mexican Stock Exchange (BMV) is considering listing crypto futures on its derivatives exchange, CEO José-Oriol Bosch said. In an official interview published by the exchange on Monday, the executive said the initiative was analyzed and discussed with the financial authorities that regulate the BMV. “I understand that financial authorities want to be careful and prevent us from having a boom like the one we had with dot-coms,” Bosch said, adding that the BMV could follow the lead of exchanges in other countries that list cryptocurrency futures. On Sept. 30, Bosch said at a forum the BMV was seeking authorization to […]

MISSION, Texas — Governor Greg Abbott joins nine Republican governors along the Rio Grande border with Mexico following a briefing by state officials and the National Border Patrol Council. The state executives are gathering at what has become “ground-zero” for the massive surge of migrants illegally crossing the border following President Joe Biden’s changes in immigration and border security policies in January. Abbott joined Arizona Governor Doug Ducey, Georgia Governor Brian Kemp, Idaho Governor Brad Little, Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds, Montana Governor Greg Gianforte, Nebraska Governor Pete Ricketts, Ohio Governor Mike DeWine, Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt, and Wyoming Governor Mark Gordon for […]
WASHINGTON — Austal USA has received its first contract to build a steel ship after revamping its aluminum-only construction yard in Alabama, with the U.S. Navy awarding the company $144 million to design and build two towing, salvage, and rescue ships (T-ATS). The Mobile shipyard announced in June 2020 it would take $50 million in federal government funds and an equal amount of its own money to upgrade the yard to build steel ships, which is primarily what the Navy fields. Austal has built aluminum Independence-variant littoral combat ships and expeditionary fast transport ships (EPF), but the LCS line is coming […]
Pig farmers in Britain have started culling their healthy pigs due to a lack of workers. Pig slaughterhouses lack workers, who are instrumental in ensuring a continuous process of production. As a result, farmers are slaughtering some of their pigs on the farms to create a conducive environment for the other animals. Continue reading below Our Featured Videos Reports of pigs being slaughtered come several weeks after farmers started issuing warnings. Earlier, pig farmers lamented a backlog of about 120,000 pigs stranded on farms due to a shortage of workers. After Brexit, the meat industry was among the most affected sectors […]
By Katelynn Richardson Many universities supply tools that allow students to report their peers for incidents involving speech or COVID-19 protocols. Several American colleges also use digital technology to track students’ social media activity and COVID-19 testing frequencies. Michigan State University provides students with reporting system to achieve what the school describes as a “safe and supportive environment” for its community members. The school’s Culturally Inclusive College Sharing System (CIC) is an online submission form allows the university to “track and respond to behaviors and situations that work to support or detract from [its] goals of a safe and supportive environment.” […]
Former U.S. Border Patrol chief Rodney Scott sounded the alarm over the Biden administration’s open border policies, claiming about 400,000 migrants from 150 countries escaped into the U.S. over the last year. Scott explained that the massive concentration of 15,000 Haitian migrants invading Del Rio, Texas in September baited the border patrol into abandoning large swaths of the border for the cartels to exploit. “It’s basically, just think like football. Basically, they fake a play over here and the real plays go into the left,” Scott told Fox News anchor Bret Baier. “So when we get distracted with 15,000 to 20,000 […]
There is a reason why top Senate republican Mitch McConnell may be about to cave and offer democrats a short-term debt limit increase through November – aka lifting the limit until December – in order to give Dems enough time to begin a debt ceiling hike via a reconciliation process (which Dems won’t do and instead will punt on the Republicans again). That reason, as a just released note from Goldman calculates, is that “a debt limit hike now looks unlikely before the last minute… and maybe not until after” by which they refer to the “drop-dead date” which Janet Yellen […]
A WNBA star has apologized after her team reportedly axed her and a teammate following a scandal over a video she shared of herself in a brawl at a food truck. Atlanta Dream guard Courtney Williams has taken to social media to apologize for a near 40-minute video she posted on Sunday which featured a wild fight she was involved in earlier in 2021. The video, which showed chaotic scenes as a mob of people launched punches at each other outside what was described as a daytime club, seems to have cost Williams and teammate Crystal Bradford their futures with the Dream, according to the pair’s […]
(Natural News) If someone would have told you a year ago that the democratic government of Australia would become tyrannical over COVID-19, you likely would not have believed them. But that’s exactly what has happened. Australians have been virtually locked down for months though the virus is not an issue in the country — and that’s not because of the lockdowns. But even if it were, at some point Australian leaders, like leftists throughout the West, let go of their fears of being ‘too tyrannical’ and have let the true authoritarianism within them run rampant. The result: Once-free people […]
Above Photo: Boston Pro-Palestine Rally in May (Lea Kayali) Are Massachusetts activists successfully moving local politicians on Palestine? Pro-Israel groups sure think so. Rep. Betty McCollum’s (D-MN) historic Palestinian Children & Families Act still lacks a companion bill in the Senate. At a recent event local JVP Action leader named Jill urged Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) to introduce the legislation. Here’s her question: I am Jewish and, like you, I am passionate about justice for all. You probably know that the U.S. government sends about $3.8 billion a year in military funding to the Israeli government. Massachusetts sends $1.3 million a year and Massachusetts […]

Weapons worth $15 million have been stolen from Israeli army bases, including rockets, rocket launchers, mines and machine guns, local media revealed yesterday. A report published by the Israeli newspaper Haaretz showed that hundreds of guns, nearly 50 rocket launchers and numerous other types of weaponry were stolen between 2013 and 2020. Citing official figures obtained via a freedom of information request, the report stated that among the weapons stolen were assault rifles and machine guns, various types of grenades, rocket launchers and explosives and over 150,000 bullets. The actual losses are expected to be much greater as the army could not account […]
A default could occur by Oct. 18, the Treasury Department has warned, if the borrowing limit isn’t raised. Democrats and Republicans are at loggerheads as the default looms, with Senate GOP Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky so far refusing to back off his position of blocking a swift debt limit boost. If the federal government is unable to borrow money to finance its debt and operations, Austin said pay and benefits for millions would be at risk and “seriously harm our service members and their families.” “[A]s Secretary, I would have no authority or ability to ensure that our service members, […]

WASHINGTON — Using a little known contracting method, the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency is now able to test out the commercial capabilities it’s interested in before it buys them. NGA Head of Commercial GEOINT Dave Gauthier says the use of bailment agreements is helping the service get access to commercial solutions and integrate them with existing systems and processes faster. Bailment agreements are a contracting tool that essentially allows the agency to purchase commercial services for a brief period of time, test them out, and provide feedback to the provider. Bailment agreements can be set up in less than two to three […]

The resolution backs a report from the Parliament’s EP Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs, and, according to the Reclaim Your Face initiative, represents “a historic moment.” Ella Jakubowska, policy advisor with European Digital Rights (EDRi), a member of the Reclaim Your Face campaign, explained in a Wednesday blog post: The report on Artificial intelligence in criminal law is what’s known as an “INI,” or own-initiative, report, which means that the Parliament decided to put forward their position on uses of AI in criminal law and justice, but without this being legally-binding.

(Natural News) How convenient that the vaccine industry and the CDC are engaged in labeling vaccine deaths during the first two weeks as “unvaccinated,” so it will look like Covid caused the death instead of the blood-clotting, heart-inflaming China Flu jabs. This is the pharma-vax-damage cover story for the unraveling mayhem and genocide wave being caused DIRECTLY by spike protein injections. Dating all the way back to November of 2020, we see the weekly trend of coronavirus jabs killing nearly 1,000 people, and still they want to blame it on people who choose not to get stuck and stabbed […]

U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chairman Gary Gensler was in the hot seat on Tuesday during a House Financial Services Committee oversight hearing, and many committee members – 19 of them – took the opportunity to ask Gensler about crypto regulation. The Committee’s focus on crypto revealed the pent-up fascination – and frustration – with the growing crypto industry and the SEC’s role in regulating it. Gensler’s testimony covered crypto exchanges, stablecoins, decentralized finance (DeFi) and more. CoinDesk breaks it down below. The SEC’s regulatory authority Rep. Patrick McHenry (R-N.C.), the Committee’s top Republican, questioned Gensler about his “concerning and contradictory” statements about […]

“Democrats have been clear from the start, we’ll do the responsible thing,” Schumer said ahead of the vote. “Republican obstruction on the debt ceiling has been reckless, irresponsible, but nonetheless today Republicans will have an opportunity to get what they’ve been asking for … simply get out of the way and we can agree to skip the filibuster vote and so we can proceed to final passage of this bill.” With time running short and neither side showing cracks in their resolve, Democrats are mulling a number of off-ramps, including making an exception to the filibuster rules for debt ceiling legislation, […]
President Joe Biden floated the proposal Tuesday of getting rid of the filibuster rules in the Senate to raise the debt limit. “Oh, I think that’s a real possibility,” Biden replied when asked by reporters if he would consider the idea to prevent the country from defaulting on the nation’s debt. The president commented shortly as he returned to the White House from Michigan, where he campaigned for his multitrillion-dollar entitlement spending agenda. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and Senate Republicans oppose raising the debt ceiling, demanding that Democrats raise the debt limit by themselves using budget reconciliation. Senate Minority Leader […]
By MassPrivateI The War on Terror has a new target: distrustful Americans. The absurdity of Homeland Security’s creation of another ‘domestic extremist group’ is countered only by the mass media’s pandering of anything terror related. The FBI describes how they allegedly investigate terrorism in America by mentioning domestic extremism 5 times on their website. “The Bureau works closely with its partners to neutralize terrorist cells and operatives here in the United States, to help dismantle extremist networks worldwide, and to cut off financing and other forms of support provided to foreign terrorist organizations.” The word extremist, according to the Cambridge Dictionary, means […]

The Lithuanian government has proposed dishing out €100 payments to vaccine-wary pensioners aged 75 and over in a bid to motivate the age group to get jabbed against Covid, as their inoculation rate remains low. Speaking in a televised government meeting on Wednesday, Prime Minister Ingrida Simonyte said that Vilnius is “unable to convince them to vaccinate otherwise.” She went on to say that if a jab-for-cash scheme “helps at least some people to take the right decision and avoid [a] severe form of the disease, or death – this is an investment worth doing.” Social Security and Labor Minister Monika […]
