During the police suppression of post-election protest in Belarus, the authorities in Minsk bought surveillance drones with almost $900,000 of EU money. And it happened as Brussels publicly condemned the Lukashenko government. The funds to purchase the 15 drones was provided through a Latvia-Lithuania-Belarus cross-border cooperation program – part of the EU’s European Neighborhood Instrument, the mission of which is to promote human rights, development, and European Market integration in nearby countries. According to the country’s State Forensic Examination Committee, the drones will be used in Minsk, Vitebsk, and Grodno to help “in the inspection of man-made and natural disasters, and […]

Mounting skepticism around a Covid-19 vaccine in the US continues, with less than half of people saying they’d take one even if they were offered $100, according to a new poll. Of the 1000-plus adults who participated in the Axios-Ipsos poll, only 44 percent said they’d take a vaccine if offered the incentive of $100. They would be even less likely to get the vaccine if they were the ones who had to pay $100, with only 26 percent saying they’d be willing to take on the cost. More than half, however, said they’d be more “likely” to get it if […]
President Donald Trump denied a New York Times report suggesting he paid almost no federal income taxes over the past two decades, saying the truth will be revealed when an Internal Revenue Service audit of his returns is over. “It’s totally fake news – made-up, fake,” Trump told reporters Sunday in a White House briefing, noting that he had to deal with similar questions when the Times published a story on his taxes in 2016. He added that he will be “proud” to show his returns when an audit of his tax filings is finally finished, but “the IRS does not […]

Donald Trump paid just $750 in annual federal income taxes in 2016 and 2017, according to tax records obtained by The New York Times. But even that low sum is more than Trump paid the government in other recent years, according to the Times. In 10 out of the last 15 years, Trump paid no federal income tax, citing mammoth losses. The bombshell report offers new insight into Trump’s tax returns, which Trump has bucked presidential candidate tradition by refusing to release. Trump called the Times report “fake news” at a Sunday press conference. “The New York Times has been doing […]

VT is currently running study groups using leaks and whistleblowers. We know this: Trump knew COVID was a bio-weapon from day one. COVID entered the US bio-weapons arsenal in 2017 along with a vaccine, which is kept secret. Wonder why so few power players get COVID? They are all vaccinated starting with Donald Trump in November 2019 This is why we strongly suspect that Trump ordered the bioweapons attack on Wuhan, China during the military games in October 2019 And why me made sure it would come home, so he could blame China and rise to power as a “wartime president” […]

Donald Trump’s “official” super PAC has spent more than $25 million since last year to get the president re-elected. Now it’s trying a new tactic: the group, America First Action, has launched a news website. The site is called the American Herald, and it describes itself as “a conservative news platform designed to bring you all the news the liberal media doesn’t want you to know. We commit to cover national issues that impact all Americans, not just what fits the left’s political agenda.” The American Herald’s formation comes during an election cycle in which Trump’s political machine has sought to […]
The NYPD embedded at least one undercover informant among protesters demonstrating against police violence in the wake of George Floyd’s death, a newly unsealed court filing reveals. The disclosure was buried in an FBI affidavit in the case of Jeremy Trapp, 24, who was arrested by the NYPD on July 17, after he allegedly attempted to cut the brake lines on an NYPD van parked in Brooklyn. Unnamed police sources told the New York Daily News at the time that Trapp was part of Occupy City Hall, a group calling for the NYPD to be defunded. At the time of Trapp’s […]
St Louis, Missouri attorney Kim Gardner, probably best known for trying to prosecute the McCloskey couple, took trips paid for by a George Soros-backed group and never reported them, a local news outlet claims. The trips, according to an investigative report by KMOV-TV, were funded by Fair and Just Prosecution, an organization Soros has contributed to – he has also donated to Gardner’s political campaigns. Not reporting the funded trips could be a violation of state and city law. According to the report, the attorney’s trips were “problematic” beyond apparently just being kept in the dark from the public. During various […]

The prime minister’s chief adviser has declined to explain the reason for the payments to Faculty, made in instalments over two years, and the firm itself is also remaining tight-lipped on the question.

The New York Times is doubling down on claims that Russia offered bounties for the killing of US troops in Afghanistan, but now says local criminals and not the Taliban were the recipients, again offering no actual evidence. The new article, published Tuesday, says that “electronic data showing large financial transfers from a bank account controlled by Russia’s military intelligence agency to a Taliban-linked account” was intercepted by US spies and “bolsters suspicions” that Russia offered bounties to militants – as claimed by the Times last week.

A New York Times report has claimed, citing officials with knowledge of intelligence, that Trump had known for months but ignored briefings that Russia had offered cash rewards to Afghan militants for killing US troops. Both Russia and the Taliban denied the report, and the White House said Trump had not been aware of the information. Joe Biden has slammed Donald Trump over a report that the US president failed to act on intelligence “findings” about an alleged Russian plot against US troops in Afghanistan. “The truly shocking revelation that if the Times report is true…is that President Trump, the commander […]

In its final 20 minutes, the documentary film AKA Jane Roe delivers quite the blow to conservatives who have weaponized the story of Jane Roe herself—real name, Norma McCorvey—to argue that people with uteruses should have to carry any and all pregnancies to term. McCorvey, who died in 2017, became Jane Roe when, as a young homeless woman, she was unable to get a legal or safe abortion in the state of Texas. Her willingness to lend her experience to the legal case for abortion led to the passing of Roe v. Wade in 1973, which legalized abortions in all 50 […]
