The Pentagon has finally published its first Airpower Summary since President Biden took office nearly a year ago. These monthly reports have been published since 2007 to document the number of bombs and missiles dropped by U.S.-led air forces in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria since 2004. But President Trump stopped publishing them after February 2020, shrouding continued U.S. bombing in secrecy. Over the past 20 years, as documented in the table below, U.S. and allied air forces have dropped over 337,000 bombs and missiles on other […]

A group of 200 artists and 30 rights groups has penned an open letter demanding the Red Rocks amphitheater, its ticketing provider AXS and AEG (AXS’ parent company) “immediately cancel” contracts to use Amazon One scanning at any venue. They also want the firms to ban all biometric surveillance at those events. The opponents to Amazon’s palm tech include figures you’d recognize, such as Rage Against the Machine’s Tom Morello and Bikini Kill’s Kathleen Hanna. The groups include organizations ranging from the immigrant-oriented United We Dream through […]

Anishinaabe Akiing, Minnesota – Today, defendants arrested while opposing the construction of Enbridge’s Line 3 tar sands pipeline launched a campaign calling on Minnesota’s elected leadership to drop all criminal charges against over 700 water protectors. A Drop the Charges petition to MN Governor Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison has already garnered over 13,000 signatures. Organizers of the campaign describe the charges as unjust based on the brutal policing tactics that the Enbridge corporation directly funded, the violation of Anishinaabe treaty rights, and the project’s contribution to catastrophic climate change.

After spending hours swatting away Democratic questions about her personal judicial views, Judge Amy Coney Barrett made a significant admission on Tuesday afternoon: that she did not consider the landmark Roe v. Wade abortion ruling to a settled legal matter, or a “super-precedent,” at the U.S. Supreme Court. While Barrett did not signal that she intends to vote to undo Roe if given the opportunity, she opened a door that President Trump’s previous two nominees to the U.S. Supreme Court did not. In 2018, Judge Brett Kavanaugh said in his confirmation hearing that Roe was “precedent on precedent” and “settled as […]

The next time you’re in the presence of someone who tries to tell you that Donald Trump is a political genius, I’d like you to grab the nearest copy of Men’s Hairstyles magazine and whack them upside the head. Maybe not too many people are saying that these days, as he’s clearly in the early stages of a ’roid-driven meltdown. But people have remarked many times on Trump’s supposed genius. It has never been true. He didn’t win his massive following by being a political genius. He won it by lying his ass off and being a racist. That’s not political […]

Democratic Senate candidate Cal Cunningham, a married father of two, admitted to the text messages after a report revealed screenshots of the exchanges. The messages were between Cunningham and Arlene Guzman Todd, a public relations strategist who is also married, and included the two talking about kissing and making plans to see each other.

The text screenshots revealed that the Senate candidate discussed “kisses” and an intimate relationship with a public relations strategist from California, though he is actually married and a father of two. North Carolina Democratic Senate candidate Cal Cunningham has admitted to sending text messages of intriguing content to California strategist Arlene Guzman Todd. “I have hurt my family, disappointed my friends, and am deeply sorry”, Cunningham said in a statement on Friday. “The first step in repairing those relationships is taking complete responsibility, which I do.” The National File published the texts first, in which Cunningham describes Todd as “historically sexy” and tells her about […]
Many relationships face the most passion and temper in the beginning, but for some people, things become most dramatic only after the love is gone and the couple splits up. A Northampton County man named Jason Muzzicato, suspected for launching a drone to drop bombs near the house of his ex-girlfriend, has received a five-year sentence on weapons charges, according to federal court documents. The series of small blasts that the community of Bangor, Maine, saw last year appeared to be a squabble between ex-lovebirds becoming way too passionate. After being arrested during an investigation into the blasts, Muzzicato was charged […]
As European Union ministers met in Brussels on Monday ahead of a summit of heads of government later this week, the UK Parliament pressed on with draft legislation to override the Northern Ireland Protocol of the EU Withdrawal Agreement.

EU Commission vice-president Maros Sefcovic said that Brussels would not accept any changes to the agreement, a position backed by French and German Europe ministers. “The EU believes in calm, constructive cooperation through the channels created through the Withdrawal Agreement,” Sefcovic said before a meeting […]

Last month, a Bloomberg analysis said that the Fed’s decision to reduce interest rates to rock bottom levels helped wipe out the dollar’s advantage against the euro and the yuan, the currency sliding to its lowest valuation in 27 months while Congress is stuck in gridlock on a stimulus bill aimed at reducing the economic fallout from COVID-19. The US dollar could drop by up to 36 percent against the euro in the coming year or so, Ulf Lindahl, chief investment officer at A.G. Bisset, a hedge fund specializing in currency management, predicts. Speaking to Reuters, the finance specialist said that […]

The fatality rate associated with COVID-19 is falling in most US states, according to an analysis by The Hill. According to the outlet, the case fatality rate of COVID-19 has been declining for weeks in most US states. In Arizona, for instance, around 5% of people who tested positive for COVID-19 by the end of May died; however, the state’s case fatality rate is currently around half that value. The case fatality rate in California was around 4% in late May but is now around 1.6%. In Minnesota, the case fatality rate was 7.5% in April and has since fallen to […]

China’s southwestern Sichuan province, a mountainous region that is estimated to have over 50% of Bitcoin network’s total computing power, has been hit by heavy rainstorms since last week, which peaked over the last two days.

Russia’s crypto industry is pushing back against a set of bills that would make it more difficult to operate in the Eurasian country. Russian lawmakers introduced a set of draft bills regulating digital assets earlier this month, which would effectively ban any transactions using crypto within the country’s borders. In response, the crypto community has filed a number of protest letters. If the proposed regulation is passed, the Russian economy could lose up to $10 billion in taxes annually, which the crypto industry would otherwise be able to pay if it could operate legally, says a letter by crypto lobbying group […]
The Senior Editor We expect Julian Assange, if he even exists, to disappear. He is an embarrassment to his masters though we think the Mossad can get more mileage out of him. Right now, they are running scared, trying to cover up the inexorable fact now available to all (all that pay attention) that Russiagate is now Israelgate to more than just VT and intelligence insiders. It begins in the highly financed fake alternative media, as usual. By our analysis, Max Blumenthal of The Gray Zone has been burned to the ground. His work is often very good and his site […]
Bitcoin’s third halving, the network’s quadrennial landmark and the most anticipated event this year in the cryptocurrency industry, has finally happened. Miners racing on the network to compete for freshly minted bitcoin produced the 630,000th block at 19:23 UTC on May 11, which triggered the programmed halving event, marking another milestone in the currency’s 11-year history. The first block in the new 6.25-bitcoin-per-block mining cycle was mined and relayed by China-based Antpool, the fourth-largest mining pool by total computing power. In an homage to Satoshi Nakamoto’s iconic “brink of a second bailout” message in the 2009 genesis block, f2pool, which mined […]
the Senior Editor They decided to kill the cow. Moooo A reminder, whenever you see Zuckstein or the Google boys addressing a room full of uniformed types, you are getting a peek at the enemy. Are we being subjected to a population reduction program joined with eugenics and wrapped in regime change, rigged elections and color revolutions? Yup. Is it Bill Gates? (Not fucking hardly) When children began dying in New York of a new CV syndrome, this became terrorism and not a pandemic. You know who kills the children, who always kills the children, this is and has been the […]

In late April Dr. Tony Fauci made it clear he opposed the decision by Georgia Governor Brian Kemp to lift the lockdown orders in his state. “If I were advising the governor, I would tell him he should be careful. Going ahead and leapfrogging into phases where you should not be … I would advise him not to do that.” But Dr. Fauci was wrong again.In fact, it starting to look like this guy is NEVER right about anything?It must be nice having a government job and not have to worry about getting fired!

CNN does news 24/7/365. But the uber-liberal network couldn’t find one second — not a single second — to cover the credible sexual assault accusation against presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden. Tara Reade, who says Biden accosted her in 1993 and inserted a finger into her vagina, appeared online on Fox News on Thursday — her first public appearance since her making her allegations. Not interested, CNN said. TRENDING: So Good!

By Gordon Duff The folks in the White House mostly went to business school. They had statistics classes and they all know numbers. You can’t steal without being able to count or at least without being able to hire someone who counts, as in Trump’s case. We began with 2000 predicted deaths from COVID. Then it went to 3000 then to 30,000. All the while they knew, it was 500,000 and that number is dependent on broad testing and a vaccine along with other treatments. Each of these factors was supposed to massage the curve but, due to Trump’s food dragging, […]
