By Jp Cortez Last year was a good year for state-level sound money legislation across the United States. 2022 could be even better. Building on the success enjoyed by sound money advocates in Arkansas and Ohio last year, more than a half dozen states are now considering legislation that rolls back discriminatory taxes and regulations on the sale, use, and purchase of gold and silver. More States Are Removing Sales Taxes on Gold & Silver To date, 42 states have removed some or all taxes from the purchase of gold and silver. And there are new bills pending now in five […]

(Natural News) We are all created in the image of God. Some of the gifts from God include consciousness, your soul and the very gift of life itself. God put you here in this time for a reason. Suffering is not the reason. While you may need to endure suffering, your purpose transcends the suffering and serves a higher purpose that is aligned with God’s mission. God is the creator and protector of Life. Satan is the destroyer of life, and all those who are with Satan relish in the destruction of human babies (abortion), human economies (destitution), human […]

Authored by Michael Snyder via The Economic Collapse, The term “return to normal” is being thrown around a lot these days, but will things ever truly return to the way that they were before the pandemic came along? I don’t think so. From an economic standpoint, an extraordinary amount of lasting damage has been done over the past two years.

Despite significant growth in recent years, the Lightning Network still faces challenges to overcome if it wants to solve bitcoin’s scalability issues. The most demanding issue is security. Because nodes on the Lightning Network are required to always be online, they become more vulnerable to attacks. And while the network aims to reduce fees incurred from processing transactions on bitcoin’s main network, it includes its own set of additional costs for opening and closing channels, along with routing fees. These are issues that will likely be solved with time, as its technology develops and becomes fully optimized. Source link

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korea fired two suspected ballistic missiles into the sea Monday in its fourth weapons launch this month, South Korea’s military said, with the apparent goal of demonstrating its military might amid paused diplomacy with the United States and pandemic border closures.

The missiles were launched four minutes apart Monday morning and flew around 236 miles on a maximum altitude of 26 miles before landing in waters off the country’s […]
The latest research out of Israel appears to confirm what skeptics have long feared: even two or three booster shots aren’t enough to protect somebody – even those who are perfectly healthy – from being infected with the omicron variant. Sheba Hospital in Tel Aviv last month tested a fourth jab given to more than 270 medical workers; 154 got the Pfizer jab, and 120 received Moderna’s jab. The researchers’ conclusions, revealed Monday, found that both groups showed a “slightly higher” increase in antibodies following the fourth injection than they saw after the third. Unfortunately, the levels produced still weren’t high […]

ARLINGTON, Va. — A study on amphibious warship requirements that will help inform upcoming budgets is looking less likely to yield the results the U.S. Marine Corps wants. The amphibious portfolio is at the heart of naval integration between the Marine Corps and the Navy. The Corps relies on these ships to carry Marine expeditionary units around the globe, and the service partly plans its force structure around how many amphibious ready groups will be ready to support those units. But it’s Navy sailors who crew the amphibious ready groups’ ships, and the service is tasked with buying and maintaining them. […]

Continue reading below Our Featured Videos The company aims to solve four challenges within the construction industry. The first: lack of workers. Currently, countless construction jobs remain vacant, which means construction is slowed or halted altogether. 3D printing technology supplements this labor shortage by requiring 90% to 95% less labor.

By Peter Cordi Campus Reform spoke with students in California and New York who detailed their experiences on campus during the pandemic. The students criticized many restrictions including online instruction and mandatory masking. This month, college students across America are experiencing reversions to online learning and COVID-19 vaccine or booster mandates. But they are also dealing with surveillance testing and systems in place on campus. Campus Reform spoke to a number of students about their school’s COVID restrictions and health surveillance measures. Daniel Cona, a junior at College at Brockport, State University of New York (SUNY Brockport) told Campus Reform, “Having to submit […]
The relentless selling in rates has resumed after the Monday’s US holiday, with violent bear-flattening in UST curves (although off worst levels now), as our belief that an aggressive Fed tightening will coincide with lower long-term growth spreads across trading desks, and as the front-end succumbs to another blistering escalation of FOMC hiking expectations (which according to Nomura’s Charlie McElligott earlier priced a touch over four hikes in ’22, up from 3.5x’s just mid- / late- last week), while Brent Crude surges to fresh 8 year highs, and European Gas Prices again jump higher on Ukraine / Russia geopolitical stress (also […]
By Glenn Diesen, a Professor at the University of South-Eastern Norway, and an editor at the Russia in Global Affairs journal. Follow him on Twitter @glenn_diesen. The EU has hit out after it was effectively excluded from security talks between Russia and the US. The fate of the world may have once been decided in Western European capitals, but now it seems to be out of their hands. However, it seems increasingly clear that the bloc only has itself to blame for the fact its members no longer have a seat at the top table, leaving them the subject of discussions, rather than […]
(Natural News) Scientists at the University of Georgia‘s Center for Food Safety (CFS) have found that sewage water throughout the Atlanta metropolitan area is contaminated with an antibiotic-resistant gene that threatens to unleash a public health crisis. The gene is resistant to colistin, also known as polymyxin E, an antibiotic used as a last-resort treatment for infections. Colistin is currently prohibited for use in livestock in the United States as part of an effort to slow antimicrobial resistance to the antibiotic. However, the new findings reveal that this mitigation effort may already be a failure as resistance to colistin […]

Paul Walter Hauser had an epic online meltdown Monday night, threatening to break people’s arms as he went on an unhinged rant about cancel culture before deleting his Twitter account entirely. The Cobra Kai actor’s spiral was sparked by a recent New York Times spread in which the publication’s acclaimed film critics Manohla Dargis and A.O. Scott listed who they believe should be nominated for this year’s Academy Awards. Their predictions included several international titles and female-directed films, including Drive My Car by Japanese director Ryusuke Hamaguchi, Rebecca Hall’s Passing, and The Souvenir Part II by British filmmaker Joanna Hogg. But […]
Given that consumers hold only small amounts in cash, there would be greater convenience in switching a current account into Britcoins, BoA said. That could be an area of concern for commercial banks. Checking accounts, or current accounts as they are called in the U.K., are the lifeblood of commercial banks’ business models, providing them with stable funding over a long term. Source link
A young, beautiful woman was brutally stabbed to death by a ‘homeless man’ in broad daylight at a Los Angeles furniture store where she worked. 24-year-old Brianna Kupfer was stabbed to death at Croft House, a luxury furniture store on North La Brea Avenue last week.

“President Biden’s learned a valuable lesson: Be careful who you criticize and what you criticize them for, because it may come back to you,” Rep. Rodney Davis (R-Ill.) said. But going on offense against Biden isn’t the same as building an election-year message around his handling of Covid. And the GOP likely won’t do that for several reasons: Members say it wouldn’t resonate well with their base, compared with issues like the economy, education and national security. Republicans also see it as a tough point to underscore given their broad dismissal of Covid precautions after the nation’s first round of vaccinations, […]
Alabama Sheriff’s Association director Robert ‘Bobby’ Timmons is reportedly working with Mike Bloomberg-affiliated Moms Demand Action to defeat the constitutional carry legislation before legislators this session. The NRA-ILA, the lobbying arm of the National Rifle Association of America (NRA), points to a report by 1819 News wherein Timmons is quoted explaining his disappointment that the Supreme Court of the United States had not issued a ruling limiting Second Amendment rights to the exercise of self-defense in one’s home. 1819 News asked Timmons if he would support an amendment to the Constitution explicitly limiting Second Amendment rights to the home and he said, […]
KABUL, Afghanistan — Months before President Joe Biden announced the U.S.’s complete withdrawal from Afghanistan last year, Washington’s watchdog warned that the Afghan air force would collapse without critical American aid, training and maintenance. The report was declassified Tuesday. The report by the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction John Sopko, submitted to the Department of Defense in January 2021, underscores that American authorities had been alerted that Afghanistan’s air force did not have the capabilities to survive after a U.S. withdrawal. In particular, the report points to U.S. failure to train Afghan support staff, leaving the air force unable to […]
By Lipton Matthews When assailing global governance, pundits rarely comment on its impact on small countries. Yet the degree to which small countries are ignored by global institutions—like the G7, the International Monetary Fund, and the World Bank—helps to illustrate how institutions of global governance tend to primarily reflect the values of managerial elites from large and wealthy states. That is, global policies are earnestly tailored by rich states in the West in response to specific challenges. In Western countries leaders have expressed concern that major corporations use tax havens as a mechanism to lower their tax burden. Therefore, to rectify […]
STORY AT-A-GLANCE Omicron is rapidly overtaking other SARS-CoV-2 variants and currently accounts for 95% of all COVID cases in the U.S. Research shows current COVID shots cease to provide any protection against Omicron 30 days’ post-injection, and at 90 days offers negative protection, actually making you more prone to Omicron infection This effectively makes COVID jab mandates obsolete, yet government and health authorities are still pushing Americans to get jabbed, and if already jabbed, to get a third booster Pfizer is now saying it will have an Omicron-specific shot ready in March 2022, at which point Americans will undoubtedly be told […]
A CEO whose company aims to “advance humanity by solving the world’s hardest problems” said “nobody cares about what’s happening to the Uyghurs,” a Muslim minority group facing potential genocide in China. Chamath Palihapitiya is also a co-owner of a NBA team, the Golden State Warriors – and the NBA has recently courted controversy over its relationship to China. “Nobody cares about what’s happening to the Uyghurs okay?” Palihapitiya told podcaster David Sacks, who was shocked by the statement. “You bring it up because you really care, and I think it’s nice that you care, but… the rest of us don’t […]

Democrats plan to spend large amounts of taxpayer cash in preparation for the 2022 midterm elections, a Tuesday report in the Washington Post outlined. While adverse momentum is diminishing Democrats’ hopes of maintaining control of the Senate and House in November, they are planning to spend large amounts of money to galvanize voters in swing states and competitive districts, the Post reported. Rumors have been building since early January another coronavirus stimulus package may be coaxed into a legislative proposal, but Tuesday’s report indicated the spending could be in the form of passing Biden’s “Build Back Better” agenda in smaller parts to […]

The news for Peloton Interactive, Inc. continues to worsen this week as CNBC reveals the company (known for slapping an iPad on a stationary bike and charging thousands of dollars) is working with management consulting group McKinsey & Co. to analyze cost structure and potentially slash jobs. CNBC obtained a recording of a recent call of Peloton’s management team discussing job cuts. There was an emphasis on reducing staff in its apparel division due to underperforming sales. One Peloton executive was heard saying as many as 12% of all brick-and-mortar retail stores (about 12 out of 123 showrooms worldwide) are “on the cut […]
Natural gas reserves in Germany, which has one of the highest underground gas storage capacities in Europe, have fallen to historically low levels compared with previous years. “According to the consolidated register of gas storage facilities of the European association Gas Infrastructure Europe, Germany’s gas storage facilities are 50.6% full (as of January 11, 2022),” the German Ministry of Economy said in response to a deputy’s request as quoted by RIA. “This corresponds to a theoretical working gas availability of 17.7 days,” it added. This comes as Russian energy giant Gazprom said on Monday it has not booked any capacity to […]

Less than a week after exiting her role as digital editor-in-chief of the New York Post, Michelle Gotthelf has filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against the paper alleging her boss editor-in-chief pushed her out after she revealed she was sexually harassed by Col Allan, the paper’s previous longtime boss. In the complaint, filed Tuesday by law firm Wigdor LLP, Gotthelf claimed that in the fall of 2015, Allan, then the Post’s editor-in-chief, sexually propositioned her during one dinner meeting and then retaliated against her for rejecting his advances. “When the two were alone,” the complaint alleged, “Mr. Allan steered the conversation […]

UK citizen Malik Faisal Akram, who had a known history of extreme behaviour stretching back over 20 years was known to British spy agency MI5 but had been judged as no longer posing a threat to the public in 2020, reports in UK media claim.

He was shot dead by law enforcement officials at the scene. Yet questions remain unanswered over how Akram was able to travel and gain access to a handgun given his long […]
Inflation is harming Navy readiness and unpredictable funding from extending a delayed defense spending bill will thwart deterrence against near peer competitors like China, according to Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Mike Gilday. “The price of Fleet readiness is going up,” Gilday said in his written testimony the House Appropriations Committee on Jan. 12. “Manpower, operations, and maintenance costs — which make up almost 60 percent of our budget — continue to grow above the rate of inflation. Making matters worse, inflation rose and remains at 6-8 percent, well above the historical average. This will likely exacerbate all of our readiness […]
By Matt Agorist Though the fact checking madness began long before COVID-19, over the last two years, fact checking has seemingly been weaponized to defend the establishment’s narrative only. Challenge the status quo and you will be censored into oblivion by the system’s praetorian guard — never mind the fact that they have been wrong countless times. One of the most egregious “fact checks” happened recently after Pfizer’s CEO Albert Bourla made a statement during an interview with Yahoo Finance on January 10. Speaking in reference to the Omicron variant of COVID-19, Bourla said, “We know that the two doses of […]
Authored by Lance Roberts via RealInvestmentAdvice.com, The market selloff into January rattled investors as concerns of “So Goes January, So Goes The Year” began to dampen expectations. Combined with a more aggressive stance from the Federal Reserve, rising inflation, and a reduction in liquidity, investor concerns seem to be well-founded. As discussed last week in “Passive ETFs Are Hiding A Bear Market,” the “blood bath” in the high-beta stocks is particularly humbling for the retail crowd that piled into risk with reckless abandon last year. “Probably one of the best representations of the disparity between what you see ‘above’ and ‘below’ the surface is the ARKK Innovation Fund (ARKK).
