ghislaine maxwell wants to testify publicly in front of congress....

Donald Trump and his team reveal how panicked they are over surging Epstein cover up backlash and Congress seeking to have Ghislaine Maxwell testify publicly as they announce plans to set up meeting between Maxwell and the DOJ to get more information, which proves the DOJ closed the Epstein investigation without ever talking to his top accomplice. John Iadarola and Luke Beasley break it down on The Damage Report.

UH OH! Trump Team Goes FULL PANIC As Ghislaine Maxwell Meeting Reveals Brutal Truth

 

 

YOURDEMOCRACY.NET RECORDS HISTORY AS IT SHOULD BE — NOT AS THE WESTERN MEDIA WRONGLY REPORTS IT.

french bankers and industrialists who helped hitler.....

In these times when the weather is turning crap, it's salutary to review history, that of our pre-war capitalists who, even before Hitler was chancellor, chose Nazism. Annie Lacroix-Riz is a historian incapable of leaving history alone. While the story of our past is engraved in stone by historical newsprints, she must erase, add, and shake things up. 

 

This book won't be a hit. Annie Lacroix-Riz* is sidelined by the Bolloré and Co. media.

wrong from the beginning....

I spent several years in a movement that goes by many names: the New Right, the populist right, Trumpism, postliberalism, national conservatism, working-class conservatism, common-good conservatism, and so on. Amid the chaos set off by the 2016 election, a set of writers, wonks, and political staffers spanning Washington D.C., New York, and Silicon Valley rushed to build an “intellectual” version of pro-Trump conservatism.

don't you believe it — or not....

 

WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - US President Donald Trump wants to distance himself from the conflict in Ukraine both diplomatically and militarily, Trump's former National Security Adviser John Bolton believes.

"Unfortunately, Mr. Trump seems more interested in extricating himself from Ukraine, diplomatically and militarily. And his decision highlights larger concerns about America’s lackluster defense spending and its economic readiness to boost military production," Bolton wrote in an op-ed for the Wall Street Journal.

"Mr. Trump is building his own off-ramp from Ukraine. He satisfied immediate demands for aid by Ukraine’s beleaguered defenders but avoided long-term commitments," Bolton added.

forever chemicals....

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a diverse group of thousands of chemicals used in hundreds of types of products. PFAS in the environment can enter the food supply through crops and animals grown, raised, or processed in contaminated areas. It is also possible for very small amounts of PFAS to enter foods through food packaging, processing, and cookware.

Because exposure to some types of PFAS have been linked to serious health effects, we are working to better understand PFAS in foods. Since 2019, we have:

veritas imperfecta

It’s a platitude that war kills not only people but truth. And as all platitudes, the statement is true, boring, and misleading. Because it omits the real murderers: “War” does not, actually, kill truth; people kill truth. War just tempts them to do so as few other things – such as job applications or marriage – can. The flipside of that fact is that it is perfectly possible to stick to the truth – or at least make an honest effort to do so – in war, too.

the murdoch media HATE our very successful prime minister....

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese's recent Six-day visit to China was important. China is Australia's largest trading partner.
From Beijing perspective it was certainly a success.
As the Communist Party's propaganda sheet, the Global Times, observed  "the relationship is now flying in the stratosphere" after years of strained ties under the previous Morrison government.

 

MAURICE NEWMAN, THE DAILY TELEGRAPH

sad boris and devilish ursula....

Former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has said he is “quite sad” about what he describes as waning interest in the UK in supporting Ukraine.

Speaking to The Telegraph at the Ukrainian embassy in London on Saturday, he lamented that support for Ukraine in the UK is declining.

“The interest in Ukraine and the appetite is so low nowadays. I find it quite sad,” Johnson said.

When asked to evaluate how well current Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s administration has handled the Ukraine conflict, he responded: “There are a lot of domestic issues that are very difficult right now, and you can see why they’re distracted.”

Support among the British public for aid to Ukraine has fallen in recent years, polls suggest.

quit aukus....

Australians who have been critical of AUKUS have tended to focus on Australian problems with it – it’s too dear, we have neither a nuclear industry nor a nuclear workforce, etc.

But very recent events and reported remarks by US Defence official Elbridge Colby show how much of a problem it — or at least the nuclear submarine aspect of it — is for the US.

The plan for that part of AUKUS envisages the US selling or leasing three Virginia-class nuclear-powered submarines to Australia in the 2030s. But

pope demands a “peaceful resolution to the conflict"...

Pope Leo XIV said the Israeli military’s deadly attack on Gaza’s sole Catholic Church was “just one of the continuous military attacks against the civilian population and places of worship” in the Palestinian enclave.

Pope Leo XIV on Sunday called for “immediate halt to the barbarity of the war” on the  Gaza Strip as Israel’s military carried out fresh massacres of Palestinians seeking food aid.

le creme de la crème…

They lie… We lie and all is well…

…. We justify our existence with unbelievable beliefs… The main question is “are we the only species trying to make sense (nonsense) about what we are?” 

“Are we the only species that can imagine the future beyond our next meal because of hunger or beyond the next session of nit-picking because we itch?”

From time to time, we explore our delusions and aspirations, hopefully in order to avoid stupidity and pain, while creating comfort and maintain a certain mental stability… It’s getting more difficult in the political mess we are bombarded with, though there is a bit more sanity in Australia than America, we could say… 

MAHAahahahahahaaaa....

ONE OF THE BIGGEST ADVANCES in public health from the last few years is one that you’ve probably never heard about—and one that now may be in jeopardy thanks to the Trump administration.

I’m talking about a dramatic turnaround in America’s opioid crisis, the epidemic that began in the late 1990s with an explosion in the use of addictive prescription painkillers, and then got even worse with a surge in the use of heroin and its synthetic alternative, fentanyl. The effects have left families, communities, and in some cases whole regions of the country reeling, and more than 700,000 Americans dead from overdoses.

the next ruthless control mechanisms.....

 

For the past 500 years, the West has reigned as the world’s dominant civilization. Though its grip has loosened in recent years, the West – especially the United States – remains the most powerful force in global politics and the international economy. This power, while capable of building plenty, also carries the potential to destroy a lot.

 

The ideology behind the ‘New America’ is more dangerous than it looks
The superhumans are coming – and so is the danger
By Artyom Lukin

 

Today, a new ideology is taking shape in the West, particularly in the US. Under the right conditions, it could prove as dangerous to humanity as fascism and Nazism were in the last century. The reelection of Donald Trump may mark a decisive turning point, transferring power to people and ideas that are, at best, deeply ambiguous.
