...UK Biobank scanned over 40,000 participants before the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, making it possible to invite back in 2021 hundreds of previously-imaged participants for a second imaging visit. Here, we studied the effects of the disease in the brain using multimodal data from 782 participants from the UK Biobank COVID-19 re-imaging study, with 394 participants having tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 infection between their two scans. We used structural and functional brain scans from before and after infection, to compare longitudinal brain changes between these 394 COVID-19 patients and 388 controls who were matched for age, sex, ethnicity and interval between scans. We identified significant effects of COVID-19 in the brain with a loss of grey matter in the left parahippocampal gyrus, the left lateral orbitofrontal cortex and the left insula. When looking over the entire cortical surface, these results extended to the anterior cingulate cortex, supramarginal gyrus and temporal pole.
...Unlike in post hoc disease studies, the availability of pre-infection imaging data helps avoid the danger of pre-existing risk factors or clinical conditions being mis-interpreted as disease effects.
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] A ‘ghost armada’ of sanctions-busting tankers carrying black-market oil to China is bankrolling Iran’s secret nuclear programme, The Mail on Sunday can reveal.
The rogue state has almost doubled its fleet sailing under other countries’ flags to 123 in the past year, letting China smuggle in up to a million barrels of oil per day – or two-thirds of the UK’s daily use.
Intelligence experts warn that the expanded fleet shows Iran, which announced hardliner Ebrahim Raisi as its president yesterday, is boosting development of its nuclear capability despite international curbs.
The fleet uses a string of techniques to evade sanctions as it sails the globe with its illegal cargo, including registering vessels in small nations without the ability to monitor tankers flying their flag.
Iranian vessels are also ‘spoofing’ – manipulating the GPS that reports a vessel’s position so it appears to be elsewhere when it docks undetected in prohibited areas.
Satellite imagery provided to the The Mail on Sunday shows ships in the illegal armada allegedly spoofing last month, and others travelling to load oil on to Chinese ships in the South China Sea.
Ships also use ‘flag hopping’ to switch their registration between nations and mask their identity.
US sanctions designed to stop Iran financing international terrorism and developing its nuclear programme ban the Middle East state from selling oil abroad.
But China has flouted the ban and increased its secret dealings at sea over the past six months to help bankroll Iran’s nuclear activity, according to United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI), an international not-for-profit group led by former US ambassador to the UN Mark Wallace.
It used satellite imagery and round-the-clock tracking to monitor the illicit trade.
China was reportedly buying an average of 700,000 barrels of illegal Iranian oil a day up to April, peaking at a million barrels, making it Tehran’s main customer.
Ghost armada ships carrying 18 million barrels are currently thought to be in the South China Sea.
Between February and May, UANI successfully applied for seven ships in the fleet, which includes 20 supertankers able to carry more than two million barrels of oil, to have their flags deregistered after alerting national authorities and insurers.
The armada can transport almost 100 million barrels of crude or fuel oil and nearly 12 million barrels of liquefied petroleum gas – worth a total of £5.5 billion.
Other countries that buy from Iran include Syria and the United Arab Emirates.
UANI senior adviser Sir Ivor Roberts, a former Foreign Office counter-terrorism chief, said that if only a sixth of the armada’s tankers evaded detection and completed a shipment each week, Iran would be exporting 2.4 million barrels a day – 300,000 more than before sanctions were reimposed in 2018.
He added: ‘The volume of black-market oil China is buying from Iran is staggering. That gives the regime in Tehran the foreign currency it needs to build up its reserves, ramp up its nuclear programme in the face of international sanctions and pursue its terror-sponsoring agenda abroad.
'This shadowy alliance is a challenge to the West and… has potentially huge implications for our security.’
Iran and China did not respond to requests to comment last night.

Democratic leaders kneeled in the halls of Congress for about 9 minutes to honor the Blessed Martyr St. George Floyd. Pelosi, 3rd in line to the presidency, presented this POS's brother a folded American flag that was flown above the Capitol in his honor -- in an elegant triangular presentation case.
This is who our leaders chose to hold up as the highest and best of our nation.
A repulsive, violent savage who was arrested nine times; who was a convicted drug dealer; who held a gun to the belly of a pregnant woman while his five fellow thugs ransacked her home; who did three prison terms totaling eight years; who (like Hunter Biden) made a foray into pr0n flicks alongside his garbage occupations of thieving, abusing drugs and knocking up women; who continued this life of depravity and violence and drug dealing and drug abuse up to and including the day he died, while at a drug deal, in the most despicable way: resisting arrest and stuffing fentanyl up his rectum.
This we are told is the national hero whom our children should emulate.
This is the feral specimen that our elected leaders from coast to are honoring with public statuary.
With public murals and commemorations.
With bended knee and tender statements and stirring speeches.
This is the disgusting deadbeat asshole whose neglected "family" -- including the children he never bothered to support, his brothers and sister, who had already siphoned over $14 MILLION (and counting) from idiotic saps via GoFundMe within one month of deadbeat's death.
The cherry on the shit sundae was the City of Minneapolis awarding this pathetic miserable band of lowlifes ANOTHER $27 MILLION from the public treasury -- even as that city has been utterly destroyed by St. George's holy BLM killers and looters.
And now America is memorializing this wretched excuse for a human in every possible way.
At the same time that our elected leaders and a small band of extortionists and thugs goes rampaging at night -- always in the dead of night -- across our parks and public spaces, pulling down every statue of the great men who built and inspired this country.
Replacing Lincoln with Douchebag Floyd.
Replacing Columbus with Simian Floyd.
Replacing Washington and Jefferson with Arse-Stuffing Fentanyl Floyd.
What a complete disgrace. What has this country descended to? Why are we allowing this to happen?

[Insider] Several children and relatives of President Joe Biden's top aides have secured jobs in the White House, according to The Washington Post.
At least five children of Biden's senior staff are now working in the administration, the paper reported.
Experts on ethics and diversity have expressed concern that this is a continuation of the sort of nepotism seen in former President Donald Trump's White House, they told the Post.
"While it may not be as bad as appointing your son or daughter to a top government post as Trump did with Jared and Ivanka, it is still bad," said Walter Shaub, who served as director of the Office of Government Ethics from 2013-2017. "'Not as bad as Trump' cannot be the new standard."

On Monday, the son of a trusted Biden counselor was hired to a junior-level position. J.J Richetti, a 2020 college graduate and the son of Steve Ricchetti, was hired as a special assistant in the Office of Legislative Affairs, the Post reported.
Richhetti's two other children also have jobs in the administration.
Daniel Ricchetti, the eldest child of the veteran White House staffer, is a senior adviser in the office of the undersecretary of state for arms control and international security. Shannon Ricchetti, the eldest daughter, works as the deputy associate director of the office of the White House social secretary.
A San Bernardino County Sheriff's deputy is under criminal investigation
Surveillance footage captured him kicking a man who appeared to have surrendered prior to being arrested
The deputy has been taken off duty and placed on administrative leave
Authorities say the 'use of force' occurred early Wednesday morning after a deputy attempted to pull over a motorcycle for 'various traffic violations'
Motorcyclist, Willie Jones, 32, rode at high speed through several traffic lights before entering Interstate 15 in the wrong direction and almost crashed
After dropping the bike at a car dealership, Jones fled on food
A deputy gave chase and just as Jones surrendered and lay down on the ground the cop could be seen kicking the man in the head and face several times

Homeowners could do more to clear deadwood near their properties, install fire breaks, and perhaps for the homes worth $1 million or more, install their own personal fire-suppression apparatus or devices. The millionaires could well afford that. People who choose to live in a tinderbox should expect fires now & then.

Old School is still the Best School.
Purchase a Manual thermostat $34.
Install it to BYPASS the Power companies remotely programmable unit to actually RUN the HVAC. But leave the power companies in place, but not in actual control of the HVAC.
While you are at it give this some deeper greater thought.SMART METERS
It means your Power companies communicate and control power flow and direction over the power lines themselves.
Note: Some of you might remember in the late 1990's early 2000's the power companies were even selling communication services and devices that used their power grid instead of Broadcast towers.
Which means your home or Business electrical power supply could also be a Communication Circuit. What does that open you up too?

I have zero pity for them. From the source article:
in exchange for entering the contest, customers had to opt-into in to a program that allows power companies to remotely adjust web-connected 'smart' thermostats when energy demands are high, KHOU reported.
If above is true, the affected Texans GAVE their permission to have Smart thermostats do their thing.
Similar defects in judgment were noted last winter when so many Texans thought they were immune to the phenomenon of water freezing and pipes bursting in buildings that were unheated in freezing weather. Gods of the Copybook Headings covered this rather well, IMNSHO.

So would the residents holding a good old fashioned blanket party (followed by a good ole fashioned tar-and-feathering) be also considered a First Amendment Right?
Not advocating it but asking for a friend of a friend...
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.
[Hillsdale] Abigail Shrier - Author, Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing Our Daughters. This speech was given at a Hillsdale College National Leadership Seminar in Franklin, TN.
[EpochTimes] As a candidate, Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S. Sleazy Dem mschine politician, paterfamilias of the Biden Crime Family... ’s number one promise was to "unite" America. Yet in his first months as president, his number one priority has been to divide our country by race and gender at every turn.
There is no clearer example than the Biden administration ...knaves, footpads, and adjusters employed by the Biden Crime Family. They leave a trail of havoc everywhere they turn their attention, be it the nation's borders, the Keystone XL Pipeline, or epidemics, sometimes on purpose, most times through sheer arrogant ineptitude. They learnt this stuff in college, you know... ’s new effort aimed at indoctrinating America’s schoolchildren with some of the most toxic and anti-American theories ever conceived. It is vital for Americans to understand what this initiative would do, what drives it and, most importantly, how we can stop it.
For decades, the America-blaming Left has been relentlessly pushing a vision of America that casts our history, culture, traditions, and founding documents in the most negative possible light. Yet in recent years, this deeply unnatural effort has progressed from telling children that their history is evil to telling Americans that they are evil.
In classrooms across the nation, students are being subjected to a new curriculum designed to brainwash them with the ridiculous left-wing dogma known as "Critical Race Theory
...teaches that skin color is the most important characteristic of any person, which translates to separate but equal with a different bunch in charge. All whites and Asians are born racist and racism permeates every aspect of society, which should be dismantled and the remains turned over to the kind of dipshit who pushes this nonsense... ." The key fact about this twisted doctrine is that it is completely antithetical to everything that normal Americans of any color would wish to teach their children.
Instead of helping young people discover that America is the greatest, most tolerant, and most generous nation in history, it teaches them that America is systemically evil and that the hearts of our people are full of hatred and malice. Far from advancing the beautiful dream of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.—that our children should "not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character"—the Left’s vile new theory preaches that judging people by the color of their skin is actually a good idea.
Teaching even one child these divisive ...politicians call things divisive when when the other side sez something they don't like. Their own statements are never divisive, they're principled... messages would verge on psychological abuse. Indoctrinating generations of children with these extreme ideas is not just immoral—it is a program for national suicide. Yet that is exactly what the Biden administration endorsed recently in a rule published in the Federal Register aimed at inflicting a critical race theory-inspired curriculum on American schoolchildren.
The rule explicitly cites the New York Times
...which still proudly displays Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize... ’ discredited "1619 Project" as a motivation. The Times has described the goal of its endeavor as the "re-education" of the American people, and the project even includes a lesson plan that encourages students to practice "erasing" parts of the Declaration of Independence. The Biden rule also directly cites a left-wing activist and leading proponent of critical race theory whose textbook states, "The only remedy to past discrimination is present discrimination. The only remedy to present discrimination is future discrimination."
This is what the Biden administration wants to teach America’s children.
The Department of Education rule stems from an executive order Biden signed on his first day in office. Biden’s order abolished the President’s Advisory 1776 Commission I created to honor America’s founding principles, and reversed an executive action I took to stop these depraved theories from being imposed upon federal employees in workforce training sessions.
Thankfully, most Americans oppose this insanity. The Left has only gotten away with it until this point because not enough parents have been paying attention and speaking up. But that is quickly changing. From Loudoun County, Va., to Cupertino, Calif., parents are beginning to make their voices heard against the left-wing cultural revolution. What they need now is a plan to actually stop it.
Here are the reforms that every concerned parent in America should be demanding.
What follows is seven action steps, clearly and succinctly laid out without bombast or embroidery. Well thought and well written, Mr. President!
[Yahoo] As Putin massed attack helicopters and aircraft on the eastern Ukrainian border, Biden and NATO leaders condemned Russia and called for a drawdown but made no public offers of military assistance. Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky urgently called for entry into NATO and the military weaponry his country lacks.
"Russia is not the entity that takes words seriously," Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba told the Washington Examiner at a June 3 meeting in Kyiv. There is, at this time, uncertainty regarding the status of military assistance to the Ukraine. Some lower level Biden Admin officials deny 'the freeze', others say, 'it's a pause' others say 're evaluation'.

Hunter’s got some great artwork for sale I hear...
[The Last Refuge] With Joe Biden in the White House you can expect to hear the name "Blackrock" in the headlines connected to a variety of issues from real estate purchasing to green energy projects with massive domestic and international investments.
BlackRock, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries) is a massive publicly traded multinational investment firm with over $8.68 trillion in assets under management [December 31, 2020 financial statement] in more than 100 countries across the globe. To say that Blackrock is invested in globalism, climate change and leftist politics, would be a severe understatement {See Here}. Larry Fink is the CEO and people like Cheryl Mills, Hillary Clinton’s attorney of record, are on the board.
The Chairman of the BlackRock Investment Institute is Tom Donilon, President Obama’s former National Security Advisor (before Susan Rice), and a key advisor to Joe Biden throughout his career in politics.
Here’s where it really gets interesting.
♦Tom Donilon’s brother, Mike Donilon is a Senior Advisor to Joe Biden {link} providing guidance on what policies should be implemented within the administration. Mike Donilon guides the focus of spending, budgets, regulation and white house policy from his position of Senior Advisor to the President.
♦Tom Donilon’s wife, Catherine Russell, is the White House Personnel Director {link}. In that position Donilon’s wife controls every hire in the Office of the Presidency.
♦Tom Donilon’s daughter, Sarah Donilon, who graduated college in 2019, now works on the White House National Security Council {link}
So let me just summarize this.... The Chairman of the BlackRock Investment Institute, the guy who tells the $8.7 trillion investment firm BlackRock where to put their money, has a brother who is the Senior Advisor to Joe Biden; has a wife who is the White House Personnel Director; and has a daughter who is now on the National Security Council.

[IsraelTimes] Terror leader issues threat if Israel doesn’t stop retaliating for balloon-borne attacks, end blockade on enclave; says Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... groups have already formulated plan of action.
A senior member of Paleostinian Islamic Jihad ...created after many members of the Egyptian Moslem Brotherhood decided the organization was becoming too moderate. Operations were conducted out of Egypt until 1981 when the group was exiled after the assassination of President Anwar Sadat. They worked out of Gaza until they were exiled to Lebanon in 1987, where they clove tightly to Hezbollah. In 1989 they moved to Damascus, where they remain a subsidiary of Hezbollah... said Saturday that Gaza terror groups have sent a message to Egyptian mediators warning of a violent mostly peaceful response if Israel continues to carry out strikes on the Strip in response to balloon-borne attacks that have burned crops and open-land in southern Israel.
Khader Habib told the Al Ayam newspaper that if the retaliatory strikes continue, as well as the blockade on the Strip that Israel says is necessary to prevent terror groups from building up military capabilities, "the [terror] organizations will respond in a similar fashion."
[Yahoo] SINGAPORE; There is a significant risk of "vaccine breakthrough" with the Sinovac vaccine, or CoronaVac, with international evidence showing that many who had taken it were later infected with COVID-19, said the Ministry of Health's (MOH) director of medical services Kenneth Mak on Friday (18 June). vaccine breakthrough means you are infected despite vaccination
many countries are using the Sinovac; an example is Chile, which has become something of a economic colony of China. It has reached 60% vaccinated with Sinovac, but new infections are running about 10k/day and deaths about 100/day in a population of under 20M

[BREITBART] A man has been arrested on suspicion of assaulting Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, Gov. Gavin can't be Bee'd Newsom ...the Mitt Romneyesque mayor of San Francisco as it transformed itself into Poopville, currently governor of California as it transforms itself into Cinderland... (D) during his visit to downtown Oakland, authorities said Friday.
Newsom was walking to a barbershop and pizzeria on Washington Street in Old Oakland to promote small businesses when he was "approached by an aggressive individual," said Fran Clader, director of communications for the California Highway Patrol, which provides security for the governor.
Officers removed Newsom from the situation and arrested the 54-year-old man, she said.
Newsom did not appear injured, the East Bay Times reported, and quipped to news hounds that different people have different ways of saying hello. The assailant allegedly threw a water bottle at the governor, according to law enforcement sources who spoke to the East Bay Times.
The man was taken to Alameda County jail, where he was booked for investigation of resisting an executive officer and assaulting a public official.
Reached by phone, a woman who identified as the suspect’s sister described him as a homeless man with severe mental health problems. She said the allegation made by authorities was “consistent with his past behavior.”

...homeless man with severe mental health problems
If the definition of "mental health issues" is consistently making irrational decisions, trying to bean Governor Hairgel doesn't rise to that standard.
[Town Hall] As the media laments being totally wrong about the COVID lab leak theory, more details are coming out about the Chinese defector who has been taken into US custody. The man alleges that he has knowledge about a slew of Chinese bioweapons programs and COVID. He alleges that the current pandemic was caused by a lab leak, and that bats were the real cover-up story. The defector alleges that while the lab leak was an accident, it was allowed to spread.
In addition, Dong Jingwei has provided DIA with the following information:
Early pathogenic studies of the virus we now know as SARS-CoV-2
Models of predicted COVID-19 spread and damage to the US and the world
Financial records detailing which exact organizations and governments funded the research on SARS-CoV-2 and other biological warfare research
Names of US citizens who provide intel to China
Names of Chinese spies working in the US or attending US universities
Financial records showing US businessmen and public officials who’ve received money from the Chinese government
Details of meetings US government officials had (perhaps unwittingly) with Chinese spies and members of Russia’s SVR
How the Chinese government gained access to a CIA communications system, leading to the death of dozens of Chinese people who were working with the CIA
Okay, so this goes well beyond COVID and bioweapons. It's a window into the extensive and entrenched intelligence network China has established here. He knows the spies, who's getting paid to be a rat, and much more. The alleged studies showing the damage COVID can inflict on the world only bolsters the lab leak theory. That it was intentional to curb China getting rolled in the socioeconomic arena. Trump had them on their heels, and this pandemic gave them breathing room. If China couldn't win or succeed, then no one can. A totalitarian government that is conducting a high-tech genocide against the Uighur population is bound to do anything to accomplish its nefarious goals. Oh, and the Bidens are in this intelligence dump as well. As Jen noted, "Dong also has provided DIA with copies of the contents of the hard drive on Hunter Biden's laptop, showing the information the Chinese government has about Hunter's pornography problem and about his (and Joe's) business dealings with Chinese entities."

[New York Post] It's a late-breaking case of electoral bondage.
Zack Weiner, 26, a City Council candidate running in Manhattan, has found his campaign tied up after video of him enjoying a sadomasochism session found its way onto Twitter. (Isn't there another Weiner in that town - wonder if they are related...hmmm) What is it with Noo Yawk Weiners?
"My magnificent domme friend played with Upper West Side city council candidate Zack Weiner and I’m the only one who has the footage," reads a tweet from the anonymous account which posted the video last week.
The footage — flagged to The Post by Weiner’s own campaign manager — shows a gagged Weiner, unable to speak, subjecting himself to various abuses by a leather-bound woman who pours wax on him and clips his nipples with clothespins.
The footage was filmed at Parthenon studio in Midtown — which is known for its high-quality BDSM dungeons.

[AMERICANTHINKER] Newsmax released an article this week that gives voice to further distrust of America’s once-premiere law enforcement agency. The column was based on a series of questions and concerns presented by Representative Matt Gaetz (R-FL) regarding the still murky details around the January 6th storming of the Winter Palace Capitol building. Two questions lobbed at the FBI ...Formerly one of the world's premier criminal investigation organizations, something for a nation to be proud of. Now it's a political arm of the Deep State oligarchy that is willing to trump up charges, suppress evidence, or take out insurance policies come election time... are both haunting and disheartening:
"What did the FBI know? And when did they know it?"
The fact that the agency responsible for investigating the lawlessness of that date is itself under scrutiny is alarming. Regardless of how one feels about Americans -- patriots or paid agitators -- entering the Capitol building illegally is not germane to the questions surrounding the supposedly objective pursuit of justice by sworn law enforcement officers. Gaetz’s most damning volley came when he suggested the FBI is no longer acting under the auspices of their original mission and has taken the dubious position of engaging in political policing. If remotely true, it would seem to represent the final nail in the coffin for any chance at repairing the integrity of a federal investigative agency.
And that sentiment is not solely the domain of the congressman from Florida. A Pew Research study released last month demonstrated a sharp decline in trust in the government from a high of seventy-seven percent in 1964 to a low that has remained under twenty-five percent since 2007. If three-quarters of Americans have spent the last fourteen years distrusting the government on the lam, what does that say about the agencies entrusted with justice and public safety? Former FBI Director JamesThe spine of the FBI is the rule of law Comey The disgraced, except in his own mind, former head of the FBI... attempted to lay the mistrust at President Trump’s doorstep. Perhaps, Slim Jim should have waited for the Pew Research findings before running his mouth again. The data shows the Truth Train left the station ten years before Forty-Five took office.

Some Suggestions
Establish a CLEAR Code of Conduct.
Establish a Internal Affairs Special Prosecutor dept. that rotates the director position every 3 years (between national elections) with a Victim Civil Right to review.
Minimum 10 year sentencing for any violations.
100% adherence to US LAW.
ZERO POLITICAL AGENDA based Investigations.
Victims to be awarded $1M tax free per False charge filed and or arrest made using illegally obtain items or planted items. Congress NOT to setup a SPECIAL OPPS Award fund. Award to come from that years FBI Fiscal Year Budgeted funds.
It's not just the bureau. It's also all those federal laws that Congress thinks we need to be saddled with. See - FBI warning on the start of any video you purchase. When you have too many jobs and too few assets, the management gets to pick and choose what they're going to spend their time doing and not doing. Can you say rogue?
#8
start by firing or retiring the entire top floor. Rename it (JEH Dept of Investigation?). Give it a simple concise mission Limit its activities to those requested in writing by the governors of the States.
#10
Corruption will have to be cleaned out of the DOJ as well. I don't see that happening any time soon. Some of the Constitutional efforts that currently seem to have favor in some counties and States will probably be neutered and fail because of Federal preemption law and the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution.
#11
But, but... if you disband the FBI, who will enforce the new Domestic Terrorist Identification and Elimination program (DIE) that Biden announced last Tuesday?
#16
^^^^^^
clean out the DoJ, including every single person inthe Civil Rights Dicison In the Bureau redo the lifestyle polygraph to include questions about associations and hard assessments regarding the agents opinion of individual rights and free speech. Move the Headquarters to Ft Leavenworth, right next to the Federal Detention facility, with the Top Floor looking directly into the exercise yard!
[ToloNews] The centers of two districts in northern Afghanistan have fallen to the Taliban ...mindless ferocity in a turban... following festivities in the last 12 hours with sources reporting high casualties among Afghan forces in Jawzjan province.
Amruddin Danishjo, the deputy head of the Jawzjan provincial council, said the center of the Mardian district in Jawzjan fell to the Taliban on Saturday morning.
He said that at least 16 security force members were killed and 14 more captured by the Taliban in festivities in the district.
Officials in Jawzjan have not commented on the fall of the district to the Taliban.
Meanwhile, ...back at the shootout, Butch cautiously raised his hat over the edge of the horse trough on the end of a stick...... Abdul Ahad Ail Bek, a member of the Faryab provincial council, said that the center of Khwaja Sabz Posh district in Faryab fell to the Taliban on Friday night.
He said that Gul Ekhtiar Arab, a security forces commander in Faryab, has surrendered to the Taliban with his personnel after they did not receive support.
Faryab officials have not commented on the report.
This comes as the 209 Shaheen Corps in a statement on Saturday said that Mawlawi Sunnatullah, head of Taliban’s military commission, and eight others were killed in the Afghan Army’s operation in Qosh Tepa district in Jawzjan on Friday.
Sources have said that more than 30 districts have fallen to the Taliban in the last two months. The Defense Ministry reported festivities in 13 provinces on Friday.
[JPost] hell, by then, he may be staying
The departure will take place nearly a month after Bennett began the premiership last week.
Opposition leader Benjamin Netanyahu will leave the Prime Minister’s Residence on Balfour Street in Jerusalem by July 10, after reaching an agreement with Prime Minister Naftali Bennett on Saturday.
The departure will take place nearly a month after Bennett began his premiership last week, shorter than the six-weeks it took Netanyahu to leave the Balfour residence after losing an election to Ehud Barak in 1999.
Netanyahu also agreed to not to hold official meetings in the residence. The day after Bennett was sworn in as prime minister, Netanyahu hosted former US ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley and Christians United for Israel leader Pastor John Hagee in the Prime Minister’s Residence.
Bennett is not expected to move into the Balfour residence full-time, but to use it mostly for official meetings. His wife and four children, aged 9, 12, 14 and 16, are expected to remain in their home in Ra’anana.

"I think I'll leave the suits in the wardrobe, if that's all right with you."
[Gateway] Former Trump Chief Strategist Steve Bannon offered Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger some sage advice on Wednesday — Lawyer up!
And while you’re at it, look for a criminal lawyer. You’re going to need it!
Bannon offered Raffensperger this bit of wisdom after news broke this week that 24% of ballots in Fulton County Georgia are missing their chain of custody documentation.

I don't believe a word of this B.S., the Dems write this shit and get some past has been to mouth it, so they can be on record as saying "well, we tried to tell the Leader of our Party he was on the wrong political track', and all the while they stoke the fires in another part of the country.
In my nearly 50 years of operating with both parties, I see the insincerity...

The Dems from 2008 on have been the most corrupt in American History, frankly, in comparison they make the Nixon Administration look like "Choir Boys".
[AnNahar] Lebanese authorities seized Friday millions of Captagon pills in the port of Beirut, placed in two containers loaded with stones and prepared for smuggling to Saudi Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. Fifteen of the nineteen WTC hijackers were Saudis, and most major jihadi commanders were Saudis, to include Osama bin Laden. Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman quietly folded that tent in 2016, doing terrible things to the guys running it, and has since been dragging the kingdom into the current century... Caretaker Minister of Interior Mohammed Fahmi on Friday revealed that the shipment was bound for Jeddah.
Security forces have doubled down to prevent smuggling from Leb ...an Iranian colony situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozeen flavors of Christians. It is the home of Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers, a practice dating back to the heady human sacrifice days of Baal Moloch... , regularly carrying out drug busts on its soil.
Fahmi asked all countries to have trust in Lebanon and asked the citizens in Lebanon to join their efforts with security forces in order to help restore confidence in Lebanon.
He congratulated the port’s Customs on seizing millions of Captagon pills, pointing to coordination between all security agencies, contributing to curbing the scourge of smuggling.
He stated that security agencies arrested the criminal masterminds involved in drug smuggling, and that efforts are ongoing to track more sides involved.
In May, Saudi Arabia banned Lebanese fruit and vegetable imports after seizing 5.3 million banned Captagon pills hidden in a consignment of pomegranates reportedly from Lebanon.
A strong motivator to ignore bribes long since spent...
Lebanon urged Saudi Arabia to rethink the ban on Lebanese fruit and vegetable imports.
That is, he rejects the idea that there are Taliban sanctuaries in Pakistan. The reality he is quietly happy about. The honourable foreign minister of Pakistan has much else to say as well, and Tolo News transcribed it all.
[ToloNews] Pakistain Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Wormtongue Qureshi ...a Pak political shape-changer. He is undistinguished except for his habit of periodically needing to have his lips reattached... said the only way forward toward peace in Afghanistan is through reconciliation, coexistence and talks among Afghans, and he reiterated that Islamabad’s approach toward its neighbor has changed and it will favor a future arrangement that is acceptable for all Afghans.
Talking to TOLOnews in an exclusive interview at his office in Islamabad last week, Qureshi said there is a need for flexibility from Afghan leaders to move the grinding of the peace processor forward.

He's not blind and he wasn't dropped on his head.
[ToloNews] Abdullah Abdullah ...the former foreign minister of the Northern Alliance government, advisor to Masood, and candidate for president against both Karzai and Ghani. Dr. Abdullah was born in Kabul and is half Tadjik and half Pashtun. He also held the meaningless salaried sop position as CEO of Afghanistan, while Ghani was president... , the chairman of the High Council for National Reconciliation, has said that he has grave concerns that the Taliban ...mindless ferocity in a turban... will not show any flexibility for a political agreement with the Islamic Theocratic Republic of Afghanistan once the US troops leave the country.
Abdullah said there clear are indications that show that the Taliban are trying to advance militarily before the withdrawal of foreign forces from the country.
"The point is that it will have an implication, an impact on the negotiations with the Taliban. Taliban may find themselves further emboldened and they may think, some of them at least, that with the withdrawal they can take advantage of the situation militarily, so why to get seriously into the negotiations?"," said Abdullah in an interview with AP.
Abdullah however warned the Taliban not to miscalculate the situation, saying that no one will be able to win militarily.
"It will be a big miscalculation on part of the Taliban should they think that they can win militarily, and I repeat that there are no winners through the continuation of the war," he added in the interview.
Meanwhile, ...back at the shouting match, the spittle had reached unprecedented levels... Qatar ...an emirate on the east coast of the Arabian Peninsula. It sits on some really productive gas and oil deposits, which produces the highest per capita income in the world. They piss it all away on religion, financing the Moslem Brotherhood and several al-Qaeda affiliates. Home of nutbag holy manYusuf al-Qaradawi... ’s Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al-Thani said that there has been no breakthrough in the peace negotiations between the Afghan parties so far.
"The announcement of the withdrawal of the US forces that will be in September 2021, which is in three months from now, and yet there is not an Afghan consensus how the future of Afghanistan will look like," he said. "Our main goals now is to achieve a ceasefire between the government and the Taliban and to achieve a consensus among the different Afghan parties."
In an address to Antalya Diplomacy Forum in The Sick Man of Europe Turkey ...just another cheapjack Moslem dictatorship, brought to you by the Moslem Brüderbund... on Friday, Abdullah called on the Taliban to engage in talks, reiterating that there is a "real opportunity" for peace in the country that should be utilized.
This comes amid reports that a six-member team from the Afghan Republic comprising key politicians, including Abdullah Abdullah and former president Hamid Maybe I'll join the Taliban Karzai ...A product, and probably the sole product, of the Southern Alliance... , is expected to travel to Doha within the next few days to hold talks with the Taliban. The delegation is expected to visit Doha on Wednesday.
The Taliban has said that they welcome the delegation’s efforts for peace.
Just in case local Law Enforcement decides to resign or can no longer handle the job. Not the first time Posse Comitatis Act has been set aside:

Subject: FCA Colors Casing and Inactivation Ceremony (7 July 2021)
Greetings SOD/FCA alumni. As always, you can count on me to send the mass emails out with bad/sad news. As the title of the email reflects, I believe this to be truly one of the emails I never thought I’d be sending out.
After 47 years, the United States Foreign Counterintelligence Activity will case its colors and officially be inactivated as an Army organization on Wednesday, 7 July 2021.
This will be the first of three unit inactivations over the next 12 months, coinciding with the scheduled unit changes of commands, concluding with the 902d casing its colors in the summer of 2022. As part of the G-2 directed CI Reformation, the 902d will transform into new Army CI Command, led by a yet unnamed 1-star General Officer. While the Army will keep the capability and mission that FCA had these past decades, it will look a bit different with mission execution being pushed out to additional locations in CONUS, and keeping the x2 overseas locations.

What's supposed to be upsetting about this? All I see is a statement that someone with law enforcement credentials can carry concealed. I don't see a blanket issuance of law enforcement credentials to those in US Army CI.

It would seem that the former Army CI cadre is being repackaged for the FBI's domestic role.
[THEHILL] Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker signed a law on Thursday expanding curbside voting and establishing permanent vote by mail.
Senate Bill 825 lays out procedures for election authorities to establish curbside voting during early voting or on Election Day. The measure also establishes permanent voting lists that voters can choose to opt-in or opt-out of at any time.
The bill also directs authorities to establish central polling places where "all voters in its jurisdiction are allowed to vote on election day ... regardless of the precinct in which they are registered," according to its text.
The measure also allows sheriffs to establish temporary polling locations at county jails. These sites would be available to people who live in the county and are in jug, but have not been convicted of the offense for which they are detained.
Pritzker’s office said that the practice is already in place in Cook County.
The legislation also establishes June 28, 2022, as the new date of the state's primary election.
The measure passed the Illinois general assembly on May 31, according to records on its website.
Pritzker said on Twitter "with attacks on voting rights on the rise in states across the nation, Illinois is proud to stand up for a strong, secure and accessible democracy."
"The legislation I'm signing today further expands access to the ballot box — ensuring all Illinoisans’ voices are heard."
[Pacific Pundit] Lingerie entrepreneur Zoe Kestan, is just one of the shady characters involved in Hunter Biden’s sudden interest in selling "art."
Hunter Biden’s connections to the New York art scene reportedly go through lingerie entrepreneur Zoe Kestan, otherwise known as @weed_slut_420 on Instagram.
President Joe Biden’s 51-year-old scandal-plagued son is venturing into the art world, with Soho art dealer Georges Bergès, who reportedly has some ties to China [Opening galleries in China. Looks like Hunter will be the Next Big Thing on CCP officials' walls, next to Mao and Xi.]
holding a private viewing for Hunter’s artwork in Los Angeles, followed by an art exhibition in New York in the fall. Hunter has reportedly been working on his art full time, and his pieces, Bergès told Artnet, will "range from $75,000 for works on paper to $500,000 for large-scale paintings."
However, Hunter’s new venture has sparked growing concerns about the potential for pay-for-play corruption in light of the fact that the buyers will remain anonymous, and the shadowy nature of the art world is a notorious avenue for money laundering. Last year, a bipartisan report by the U.S. Senate’s Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations found that "secrecy, anonymity, and a lack of regulation create an environment ripe for laundering money and evading sanctions" in the art world.
[FOX] The city of Evanston, Illinois, located just north of Chicago, joined communities across the U.S. in celebrating their first in-person Juneteenth parade Saturday, but some have been left wondering why celebrations for the nation’s Independence Day have been canceled. 13 percent of the population bullying the other 87 percent.
The Evanston Fourth of July Association voted to cancel the town’s Independence Day events earlier in 2020 and opt for a virtual celebration instead -- citing concerns over the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
"Based on concern for public health due to the unpredictability of the pandemic’s impact, vaccination rates, and in cooperation with our local authorities, the Trustees...voted to cancel the Fun Run, Parade, Palatine Concert Band performance and Lakefront Fireworks show on July 4, 2021," the board wrote in a statement.
But some took to social media to voice their frustration over the decision.
"My home town of Evanston, Illinois is having a Juneteenth Parade and a Gay Pride Parade, but is canceling the 4th of July Parade & Fireworks," Tom Bevan, co-founder and president of Real Clear Politics, wrote on Twitter.

This country is sick. Our leaders applaud mobs that kill, burn and loot, even as they put up monuments to violent criminal drug addict lowlifes while they tear down statues of our beloved national heroes.
They denigrate our most important events and holidays and create bullshit meme-days in their stead.
This is intolerable. Maybe one should ask, How much longer will Americans tolerate this disgusting lunacy?

If the concern really is spreading Covid, then by allowing Pride and Juneteenth gatherings they’re showing they’re evil white supremacists who want those two populations dead.
If, in the other hand, that’s just a convenient excuse, they’re showing something else equally despicable.
[FOXNEWS] Wisconsin Republican Rep. Glenn Grothman introduced a bill Friday that would ban Washington, D.C. public schools from teaching critical race theory — a controversial doctrine that assumes systematic racism is a defining feature of U.S. history and society.
Grothman said that critical race theory teaches children "to hate each other and hate their country."
"In other words, students being taught that they are defined by the color of their skin, not the content of their character," he said in a statement.
Congressional politicians have the jurisdiction to enact laws that affect the nation’s capital, as D.C. is not a state.
Fox News could not immediately reach Mayor Muriel Bowser for comment on the legislation.
Bowser has consistently pushed for statehood to circumvent the long-held congressional power that politicians wield over the city's nearly 700,000 residents.
The "Ending Critical Race Theory in D.C. Public Schools Act" was backed by four GOP congressmen, including Reps. Bob Gibbs of Ohio, Ralph Norman of South Carolina, and Texas politicians Pat Fallon and Ronny Jackson.
The interim report of the UN Secretary General on the situation with human rights in Crimea will be presented at the session of the UN Human Rights Council, starting on Monday. This was stated by the first deputy foreign minister of Ukraine Emine Djeppar on Facebook on Saturday, June 19.
"The report records the continuing practices of illegal persecution of Crimeans, the use of torture for self-incrimination, the transfer of illegally convicted persons to the territory of Russia, the impunity of the bodies of the Russian occupation authorities, including the FSB," Geppar said.
In addition, the retrospective application of Russian legislation is noted, in particular for the attack on freedom of the media and deprivation of housing for Crimeans, which is actually one of the forms of forced change in the demographic composition of the population.
Finally, the lawlessness of the "authorities" of the annexed peninsula also includes an attack on religious freedom, in particular, it is about the persecution of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine.
"These are the practices in violation of international law that Russia brought with it as an occupation power in the Ukrainian lands of Crimea and Donbass," Jappar summed up.
Recall that earlier in Crimea, a sentence was passed in absentia to Refat Chubarov . The head of the Mejlis was accused of riots near the building of the Supreme Council of Crimea in February 2014, during which two people were killed.
It was also reported that Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba called on the OSCE to pay more attention to Crimea . The OSCE Special Monitoring Mission should increase the number of its efforts in the Crimean direction.
[Rudaw] Two members of the Kurdistan Workers' Party have been confirmed killed and one injured in a Ottoman TurkishArclight airstrike ...KABOOM!... on a vehicle in the Sharbazher area of Sulaimani province, a local mayor has confirmed to Rudaw.
The airstrike took place in Galala village, according to Kamaran Hassan, the mayor of the nearby town of Mawat.
A fire has broken out in the village, according to footage submitted to Rudaw by a local resident, who said the PKK vehicle was passing through the area at the time of the attack and was struck just before 7pm.
It comes less than a week after four people were killed in a Ottoman Turkish airstrike on a vehicle in Sulaimani’s Halsho subdistrict.
Ottoman Turkish airstrikes have time and time again targeted mountains near the Sharbazher area.
The strike on Saturday comes amid ongoing Ottoman Turkish operations in Duhok province targeting the PKK.
[AnNahar] The Pentagon said Friday it was cutting the number of troops and air defense units deployed to the Middle East, confirming a Wall Street Journal report that eight Patriot batteries were being moved out from the region.

[AmThinker] Two maps that will infuriate progs and demonstrate the foundational wisdom of federalism.
Don Surber posted an amazing pair of maps yesterday, showing the way that federalism is working to enable citizens to defend themselves with firearms. While the federal Constitution guarantees the right to bear arms, states regulate firearms licensing, and in the past 35 years, a landslide of states has recognized the right to carry a firearm. Check out the night and day contrast between 1986 and 2021:
Heartening graphics can be seen at the link.
Don comments:
Without firing a shot (except at the firing range), Americans have won a revolution -- state by state.
This is correct. The "no issue" red states have gone from predominant to zero. The "may issue" states, where the right to carry (i.e., bear) arms can be infringed, are now confined to the coastal progressive enclaves of the Northeast (except the far NE) and Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, and Hawaii. They are small islands of repression in a sea of liberty.

Its a reflection of the breaking of trust from the FBI and Federales - they have shown themselves to be untrustworthy, and it means individuals must provide for their own defense against criminals - and against a corrupt FBI/Federal-Government and its agencies and agents.
Simple as that - people opened their eyes to what started at Waco and Ruby Ridge: lawless actions by the very agency that was supposed to uphold the law and bear fidelity to it.

[Foundation for Economic Education] The pandemic has undoubtedly hastened the shift to remote work.
Many workers and companies have now embraced remote work in previously office-based positions, and this is continuing even as the economy reopens and new jobs are posted.
Many new remote positions are being posted advertising that applicants can live anywhere in the US—except Colorado.
Here’s why.
“A new Colorado law… requires companies with even a few employees in the state to disclose the expected salary or pay range for each open role they advertise, including remote positions,” the Wall Street Journal reports. “The rule’s aim is to narrow gender wage gaps and provide greater pay transparency for employees.”
The result?
“To avoid having to disclose that information, though, some employers seeking remote workers nationwide are saying that those living in Colorado need not apply,” the Journal notes.

[JustTheNews] Biden has made clear his opposition to raising taxes on people making less than $400,000 a year.
The White House made clear Friday that President Biden is opposed to tying the federal gasoline tax to inflation to help pay for a $579 billion infrastructure package – dashing a bipartisan Senate plan on how to pay for the measure but keeping his campaign promise of no tax increases on most Americans.
The gas tax increase was part of the group’s early package, which called new spending on roads, bridges, rail and public transit.
The plan by the bipartisan group of 21 senators is one a several in Washington including House Democrats’ $1.9 trillion package.
"The president has been clear throughout these negotiations: He is adamantly opposed to raising taxes on people making less than $400,000 a year," White House spokesman Andrew Bates said Friday. "After the extraordinarily hard times that ordinary Americans endured in 2020 – job losses, shrinking incomes, squeezed budgets – he is simply not going to allow Congress to raise taxes on those who suffered the most."
The federal gas tax is now at 18.4 cents a gallon and has not increased since 1993. It helps pay for highways and mass transit programs around the country, according to the Associated Press.
Congress has traditionally relied on the user-pay principle to pay for road and bridge work, use as tolls, but is increasingly relying on general funds to accomplish that task.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer says fellow Democrats don’t believe the $579 billion package does enough on such concerns as climate and priorities like paid family leave.
As a result, he is expected to lead his party on two tracks that include a reconciliation package going beyond what’s in the small, bipartisan plan.
Leaders of the group are expected to meet Monday with Biden on the matter, the wire service also reports.

[The Federalist] The Tolkien Society, a literary organization founded in 1969 and dedicated to promoting the works of J.R.R Tolkien, has held an annual academic conference for decades. This year’s conference, to be held virtually via Zoom on July 3 and 4, is on the theme of "Tolkien and Diversity."
Before we go on, understand that the Tolkien Society’s president was, and formally remains, the great J.R.R. Tolkien himself. His daughter, Priscilla, currently serves as the vice president. At its annual seminar, scholars present academic papers, archival materials are sometimes displayed and discussed, and a serious effort is generally made to understand and appreciate Tolkien’s unique genius. In other words, it’s not some ramshackle fan club for Middle Earth LARPers.
But this year, seminar attendees will be subjected to something different. Papers to be presented include, "Gondor in Transition: A Brief Introduction to Transgender Realities in The Lord of the Rings," "The Lossoth: Indigeneity, Identity, and Antiracism," and "’Something Mighty Queer’: Destabilizing Cishetero Amatonormativity in the Works of Tolkien." Pretty much the entire program is like this.
The best thing we can say about a Tolkien conference that presents papers on, say, "Pardoning Saruman?: The Queer in Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings," or "The Invisible Other: Tolkien’s Dwarf-Women and the ’Feminine Lack,’" is that the scholars in question do not know the first thing about Tolkien or the meaning of his work.

Color me Plebian, I appreciate the writing, the structuring and the imagination, but I never really got the point of elevating such literature to anything beyond clean entertainment.
When fantasy becomes a high enough intellectual precipice for christian society, and people are presenting academic papers on 'Dwarf-Elf relations', reality blindness and madness are not far.

I seldom tire of reading concepts, ideas, differing insight and opinions. Not much for 'alternative histories.' Perhaps that points to a contradiction.
#3
Alternate histories are good when there's a point to be made, I guess. Like 'be thankful for this here mess, it could be worse'. It's the fantastic utopias of far out fiction I just fail to see. And way unlikely causalities, things that could not possibly happen given how it's going.
[IsraelTimes] Saudi air defenses intercepted and destroyed 10 drones fired at the kingdom by Iran's Houthi sock puppets ...a Zaidi Shia insurgent group operating in Yemen. They have also been referred to as the Believing Youth. Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi is said to be the spiritual leader of the group and most of the military leaders are his relatives. The legitimate Yemeni government has accused the them of having ties to the Iranian government. Honest they did. The group has managed to gain control over all of Saada Governorate and parts of Amran, Al Jawf and Hajjah Governorates. Its slogan is God is Great, Death to America™, Death to Israel, a curse on the Jews They like shooting off... ummm... missiles that they would have us believe they make at home in their basements. On the plus side, they did murder Ali Abdullah Saleh, which was the only way the country was ever going to be rid of him... rebels in Yemen ...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of... , state media reports, quoting the Saudi-led military coalition battling the bad boys.
The official Saudi Press Agency reports that seven of the drones targeted regions in southern Saudi Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. Fifteen of the nineteen WTC hijackers were Saudis, and most major jihadi commanders were Saudis, to include Osama bin Laden. Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman quietly folded that tent in 2016, doing terrible things to the guys running it, and has since been dragging the kingdom into the current century... . Three targeted the Khamis Mushait region, also in the south and home to military installations, it said.
"The interception operations were successful," the coalition says in a statement, adding that the drones were packed with explosives and seven were knocked out in Yemeni air space.
Earlier today the Iran-backed Houthi rebels tweeted that one drone was launched in the morning towards the King Khaled air base in Khamis Mushait.
The developments come as a diplomatic push by the United Nations ...a formerly good idea gone bad... , the United States and regional countries to secure a ceasefire in Yemen after more than six years of devastating conflict have failed.
[WASHINGTONEXAMINER] Pennsylvania appears to be on the precipice of initiating an Arizona-style audit of the 2020 election.State Sen. David Argall, who heads a committee that oversees elections, told local news outlets he favors a forensic audit of the contest that state and federal officials insist was secure.
The Republican, under pressure by former President Donald Trump ...Oh, noze! Not him!... to take action, told the Capital-Star the audit is now a "very real possibility." The report said he is considering subpoenas for ballot information and which jurisdictions to send them.
"There are a lot of things under consideration right now, and I told them to check back in a week or two, and we hope to have some more detail," he told the outlet after meeting with audit-supporting activists on Thursday.
Pennsylvania and Arizona are two states won by President Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S. Sleazy Dem mschine politician, paterfamilias of the Biden Crime Family... last year in which post-election audits showed no widespread fraud.
But after dozens of lawsuits with election fraud allegations and voting irregularities were rejected by courts around the country, the audit in Maricopa County, commissioned by the GOP-led Arizona Senate, has become a beacon of hope for Trump and his supporters who herald the legislature-backed review as a model for other states to replicate.

(Headline USA) A judge in Kansas’s most populous county reauthorized landlords to evict tenants who are behind on rent in advance of a federal moratorium expiring at the end of the month.
Johnson County Magistrate Judge Daniel Vokins explained this week during a Zoom eviction hearing that he doesn’t think the moratorium that was issued last year by the the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is enforceable.
The federal moratorium, implemented as part of a massive bureaucratic power-grab in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic, has prevented many tenants from being evicted, although those who failed to pay still owe back rent.
With the policy set to expire, more than 4 million people nationally face being evicted or foreclosed upon in the coming months, census data show.
It comes as many who received exceedingly generous unemployment benefits during lockdowns to entice them to stay home now remain reluctant to reenter the job market, and massive new government spending proposals for entitlement programs threaten to send inflation skyrocketing.
Making matters worse, the tens of billions of dollars in federal emergency rental assistance that was supposed to solve the problem has not reached most tenants.
Ironically, the policies and rhetoric that Democrats used to install President Joe Biden into office and regain control of the Senate are now coming back to bite the party in power.
Both the White House and Congress have seen their approval ratings plummet as reality—and, with it, buyer’s remorse—sets in.

I paid off my mortgage in February (Thank you Donald Trump!) and now have a cash glut. Whatever shall I do with it???
[NYPOST] Mayhem erupted in beleaguered Washington Square Park early Saturday when a taser-waving madman armed with a knife sent park dwellers running out of the park — trampling a woman in the process.The woman was left covered in blood after she was "run over" in the stampede to safety, police said. Dramatic images show the victim, 43, bleeding from her face. She was taken to Bellevue Hospital in stable, pH balanced condition with cuts, scrapes and bruises, cops said.
Police collared a 42-year-old Manhattan man following the chaos. Jason McDermott is charged with menacing, reckless endangerment and criminal possession of a weapon.
The latest havoc in the famed park comes amid increasing outrage over repeated incidents of violence. Hundreds of locals packed the basement of a Greenwich Village church this week for an emergency meeting about the problems — as police officials promised to "address" their growing concerns.
It’s unclear what sparked the allegedly unhinged McDermott, 42, to begin waving a taser near a group of revelers gathered inside the park at around 12:40 a.m. He was also carrying a large knife.
Good. Maybe they'll quit calling me now.
[WND] Police organizations around the world have succeeded in closing down thousands of fake online pharmacies — and confiscating millions of products like face masks — in a coordinated enforcement effort orchestrated by INTERPOL.
Officials in La Belle France explained the program was called Operation Pangea XIV and targeted the sale of counterfeit and illicit medicines and medical products.
Among the items withdrawn from circulation were home COVID tests, sedatives, masks, syringes, catheters and surgical devices, painkillers, steroids, antiseptics, anti-cancer medication, anti-malarials and more.
The effort was supported by the Pharmaceutical Security Institute, the United Nations ...a formerly good idea gone bad... Office on Drugs and Crime/World Customs Organization’s Container Control Program and Europol.

[IsraelTimes] A high-level Paleostinian security delegation arrived in Washington this week for consultations with their American counterparts, two sources familiar with the matter told The Times of Israel Saturday.
They were the first such meetings since US President Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S. You're a lyin' dog-faced pony soldier... took office five months ago.
The delegation from Ramallah was headed by Paleostinian Authority General Intelligence Services chief Majed Faraj.
Faraj was one of the only PA officials to maintain contact with the US during the previous administration, which Ramallah boycotted in 2017 after former president Donald Trump ...Perhaps no man has ever had as much fun being president of the US... recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.
The Biden administration ...knaves, footpads, and adjusters employed by the Biden Crime Family. They leave a trail of havoc everywhere they turn their attention, be it the nation's borders, the Keystone XL Pipeline, or epidemics, sometimes on purpose, most times through sheer arrogant ineptitude. They learnt this stuff in college, you know... has restored relations with the PA, announcing the return of hundreds of millions of dollars in humanitarian assistance. Last month US Secretary of State Antony Blinken notified then-prime minister Benjamin Netanahu of the intention to reopen a consulate in Jerusalem that historically served as the de-facto representative to the Paleostinians before being shuttered by Trump.
The PA delegation’s meetings this week included ones with counterparts at the Central Intelligence Agency, the sources said, adding that the sides discussed maintaining calm in the West Bank against the backdrop of last month’s war in Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... A spokesperson for the PA General Intelligence Service declined to comment, and the CIA Public Affairs Office did not immediately respond to a query on the matter.
During the 11-day conflict in the coastal enclave, Biden asked PA President the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas ...aka Abu Mazen, a graduate of the prestigious unaccredited Patrice Lumumba University in Moscow with a doctorate in Holocaust Denial. While no Yasser Arafat, he has his own brand of evil, just a little more lowercase.... to prevent the West Bank from turning into a "second front," a US official said.

"The PA delegation’s meetings this week included ones with counterparts at the Central Intelligence Agency..." Does anyone anywhere trust the CIA? Should anyone?
[FOXNEWS] A Justice Department dossier called the "National Strategy for Countering Domestic Terrorism" was released this week with much fanfare by Attorney General Merrick B. Garland, but one political scientist warns the actual text proves even the most casual critic of the Biden administration ...knaves, footpads, and adjusters employed by the Biden Crime Family. They leave a trail of havoc everywhere they turn their attention, be it the nation's borders, the Keystone XL Pipeline, or epidemics, sometimes on purpose, most times through sheer arrogant ineptitude. They learnt this stuff in college, you know... could be ensnared in its definition, and therefore face punishment.
On "Tucker Carlson Tonight," Nicholas Giordano — whom host Tucker Carlson described as a government document expert — and who is also a professor at Suffolk Community College in Selden, N.Y., warned that Garland's document is "one of the most concerning" he has ever studied.
"When you look at it, it is clear the [legal] analysts in the field didn't write this document, it was the political appointees trying to push an agenda. They list three factors to drive domestic terrorism: the first is racism," he said.
Extrapolating from the fact the term "racism" is never formally defined in the document outside of the idea of White supremacy, Giordano noted that the Biden administration and its political allies include people who believe racism is "inherent" from birth.
"The question then is, are we born 'domestic terrorists'" under this new agenda, Giordano questioned.
Another tenet of what the document describes as "domestic terrorism" is "anti-government sentiment."

It's supposedly worth 1.5 trillion, which works out to, I think, about 230,000 dollars per dead victim, but I'm not sure how much living-but-crippled people should get.
That's why the flags of two other countries emulate it.

The 'I Try' singer said the flag needs to be redesigned to represent all Americans, arguing the symbolism of Old Glory was harmed during the Capitol riot
Gray argued that the stars on the flag fail to represent Washington D.C. and Puerto Rico, which have both seen failed attempts at gaining statehood
She went on to claim that the 'white' stripes meant to represent purity and innocence are not an accurate way to depict the country

Fight back and bring this idiocy to a conclusion.
That will mean sacrifice and a willingness to be vicious. Coordination with capable people, recruiting, supply, funding. And a prolonged guerilla warfare in urban zones. Not that it can't be done, it can I'm sure. Anything groups of weed addled, ritalin raised misfits can do, well adjusted healthy people can accomplish in months. But it would entail going up against the laws, that beloved constitution, everything even the Republicans hold dear. A strong enough statement of disobedience and rebellion, and the pols will have to relent in their campaign to alter America piecemeal. A momentum of violence will have to be maintained too, with liquidations of people like that Cullors woman, maybe some antifa heroes offed on the street, voices like this one testing people's tolerance silenced abruptly.
This sort of thing has already been anticipated by the deepState strategists; hence the move to weed out nationalists and unwoke people not on the same page, from the military and law enforcement. The campaign on thought policing and anti-government ideas. The hullabaloo about 'domestic terrorists', because they know such a reaction is imminent. Theirs were logical steps toward preemptive disempowerment of the people. Concurrent to it they have their assault on the 2A in various forms and stages of success. Because intelligent, war experienced vets, LEOs leading disgruntled citizens against their ANTIFA and black supremacist goons is what they fear. If that happens, raw power will transfer back into people's hands, making the administrations finally answerable, the socialist elite an endangered species and the dysfunctional democracy a Republic.

^ A purge? Long term deterrence and enslavement? Let the hordes of criminals and sociopaths cultivated by mayors and DAs loose on defenseless people. Not an all out assault. Violations of opportunity. Death to their pride and morale by a thousand cuts. Make it so any degree of atrocity is easily forgotten and people learn to live with it.
The power of such a setup has been seen in third world nations for years now. It has become the status quo that their pols and bureaucracies fight to protect, hailed as democracy and other lofty things. Make the people totally dependent on the State, at the mercy of the police. Their highest aspiration becomes mere survival and maybe doing business to pay off State extortion.
It's like the American Left studied the polities of these nations and decided that the severely emasculated majorities and forever desperate middle classes make for easy golden geese; and decided this is what they want for America. It'll take a generation to get there, but unchallenged they will.

No worries. When the left's militias finally get the balls to attack a suburban neighborhood where people actually live, not only will Antifa and BLM be utterly destroyed, the suburbanites will roll right on through city hall and the federal building taking into custody every politician and deep state turd and antifa punk until peace reigns supreme again. etc. etc. etc.

[Headline USA] "We're finally now getting to the point where we're going to be addressing the original sin of this country, 400 years old," candidate Joe Biden told Wisconsin voters in September 2020, "slavery and all the vestiges of it."
On his first day in office, President Biden signed an executive order that cited "the Civil War and the abolition of slavery."
A presidential proclamation in March decried "the damaging legacy of slavery," while another, on June 1, lamented the "unconscionable hardships of slavery."
Joe Biden clearly opposes the slavery of 1619-1865. As well he should.
Too bad he facilitates the slavery of 2021.
"Biden's open-border policies have produced the largest human-trafficking operation since the international slave trade," Rep. Tom McClintock, R- Calif., told me. "To the extent that immigrants are forced to labor as indentured servants to the crime cartels, these policies have reintroduced slavery into the United States."
During a June 10 House Judiciary Committee hearing, McClintock asked FBI Director Christopher Wray, "So we basically, 170-plus years after the 13th Amendment have slavery burgeoning in this country as a result of these policies?"
"I do consider human trafficking a modern form of slavery," Wray agreed. "I mean, it's almost medieval."
The 13th Amendment to the Constitution was adopted in 1865. This provision drove the final stake into the heart of human bondage in America:
"Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction."
Today, 156 years after that language entered the Constitution, it's being trampled beneath a flow of humanity that resembles traffic on the northbound San Diego Freeway.
From Jan. 1 through May 31 (2021), Customs and Border Protection reported 711,567 land encounters with illegal aliens on the U.S. & Mexico border versus 148,075 during a similar time-span last year - an increase of 380.5%.

In the antebellum plantations, the owner had to carry the cost of clothing, feeding and housing his slaves. Today, the owners pawns that off on the welfare system and have others pay for it.
[Common Sense Show] I recently wrote an article in which I detailed the anticipated nine-pronged attack upon the United States by the combined forces of Russia, China and the United Nations.
Russia and China??? And the Blue Helmet troops
of the UN? But Russia and China don’t even do military exercises together, which surely would make staging an overseas invasion super interesting for all involved. As for the UN troops, aren’t they generally from Third World countries who need the income? I realize I’m not qualified to have an opinion, but when I consider the number of guns bought in this country over the past decade, the number of “shall issue” and right-to-carry states, and remember the encounter the Russians had with a small unit of our guys in Syria a few years back, a formal invasion strikes me as dangerous to invaders.
One of the elements of this attack consisted of the build up of 5th column forces designed to significantly weaken America prior to the actual invasion. This plot is currently in motion as we are seeing the manifestation of this portion of this nine-pronged attack upon America through the activation of 5th column forces designed to seriously weaken America and destroy citizen moral. The following was previously reported on the CSS:
A fifth column attack is already underway in America. It is largely compromised of Antifa and BLM. However, Sinaloas are crossing the border in force and are headed to pre-stored weapons caches and are apparently awaiting orders, along with ISIS and MS-13. These groups along with the level of their attacks, pales as what is coming to America. What is coming is an all out 5th column attack and it will be carried out by terrorists who have already gained entrance into the United States. Key assassinations and critical infrastructure sabotage will be carried out by these forces. The first casualty will be the grid. Random acts of violence will be perpetrated upon the American people including the slaughter of innocent Americans, the attack upon schools and malls will be common. I have often referred to this as the coming TET Offensive in which all the embedded terrorists will simultaneously attack America in dozens of locations. Many American communities will witness their communities rounded up and executed. That's what communists do.
Local and federal law enforcement will be a primary target if these terrorists. In a recent conversation with federal law enforcement agents, I learned that they are baffled at the lack of active Antifa in Portland. It just so happens that I recently learned the reason why.
"Many American communities will witness their communities rounded up and executed. "
Entire communities rounded up and executed? How many does he think there are versus all the local and state cops, guard, and armed citizens? Has he ever been to Texas? Or anywhere in most of suburban and all of rural America??
Tell us, sir, what color is the sky in your world?
This guy needs to stop watching Red Dawn as if it were a documentary, take his medications, and get professional help. Displaying his delusional paranoia for all to see is no way to go through life. Or else pandering to the mentally unstable to make a buck, which in some was is even more despicable.
The problem is, there are far more likely scenarios that deserve attention and effort rather than this collection of paranoid bullshit.
I wonder... is this author a false flag to make preppers look like mentally ill kooks, and pull effort away from legitimately needed resources and efforts to slow Antifa and BLM?
I half-way wonder when he will start yelling about "the purity and essence of our natural fluids"

the anticipated nine-pronged attack upon the United States by the combined forces of Russia, China and the United Nations.
I've always felt one big liability the Right accumulates over time is that the quality of voices that support it don't pose a challenge to the suave, intellectual elites they must contend with. There are gems like this, and that Marjorie Green lady to make us all look like snake handling retards from time to time.
Or, it could be as Forkbeard7574 says, a false flag kooky write-up to stereotype conservative concerns.
[NEWS.YAHOO] In late May and early June 2020, looters smashed storefronts in the Bronx and Manhattan boroughs of New York City.
Many were caught on tape, some with their faces visible. Others even posted their own videos of their actions those nights on social media. Hundreds were arrested.
But a review of NYPD data by the investigative team at WNBC, the NBC owned station in New York, shows that a large percentage of the cases — particularly in the Bronx — were dismissed, and that many convictions were for counts like trespassing that carry no jail time.
"I was in total shock that everything is being brushed off to the side," said Jessica Betancourt, who owns an eyeglass shop that was looted and destroyed along Burnside Avenue in the Bronx last June.
According to the data, 118 arrests were made in the Bronx during the worst of the looting in early June.
Since then, the NYPD says the Bronx district attorney
...that’d be Darcel Denise Clark, Democrat, a.k.a. Darcel Clark, who spent her entire career in the Bronx: first as a prosecutor, then as a judge, then twice elected as the Bronx district attorney because there are better opportunities for graft. Unusually, she grew up in the Bronx projects with both a father and a mother, so she should know better. If she is not a recipient of Progressive billionaire funding, it’s because she’s giving it away for free...
and the courts have dismissed most of those cases — 73 in all. Eighteen cases remain open and there have been 19 convictions for mostly lesser counts like trespassing, counts which carry no jail time.
Betancourt, who is also vice president of a local merchants 'association, called the numbers "disgusting." She said local business leaders are upset few are being held accountable for the destruction they caused.
In Manhattan, much of the looting occurred in the upscale neighborhood of Soho. Amid the Covid pandemic, mobs and organized criminals were taking advantage of huge protests in the city after the Minneapolis police killing of George Floyd.
The NYPD data shows there were 485 arrests in Manhattan. Of those cases, 222 were later dropped and 73 resulted in convictions for lesser counts like trespassing, which carries no jail time. Another 40 cases involved juveniles and were sent to family court; 128 cases remain open.
In NY, Looting is treated like a 2nd/3rd degree FELONY Burglary.
An according the NY Law. A person Jailed for or Convicted but still on probation for a Felony can't vote in NY.
So arresting and charging them for Looting is quite a serious problem for the Socialist-Democrat party. Because it would prohibit such persons from voting in 2022 & 2024 elections. ☺☻☻☻☺

Maher is a "politically schizophrenic opportunist", who has learned to "swim like a fish" (back and forth) in furtherance of his cause, money.
I must admit, he is very good at it, kind of like an old Soviet Commissar...comments, observations and orders, which contradict and undermine the orders he issued on the orders to support the present series of edicts pronounce by his comrades at CNN only weeks before.

[FOXNEWS] "Outnumbered" co-host Kayleigh McEnany slammed CNN ...the organization formerly known as the Cable News Network. Now who knows what it might stand for... anchor Don Lemon Friday over his "insidious" criticism of parents who oppose the teaching of Critical Race Theory
...teaches that skin color is the most important characteristic of any person, which translates to separate but equal with a different bunch in charge. All whites and Asians are born racist and racism permeates every aspect of society, which should be dismantled and the remains turned over to the kind of dipshit who pushes this nonsense... in schools.
McEnany, responding to Lemon's Thursday claim that parents who were against teaching critical race theory were showing their "privilege," defended the parents, arguing that regardless of race, they may not want their children being taught that they're either oppressed because they are Black or an oppressor because they are White.

"You have to be privileged and you don’t want your pleasant life interrupted if you're opposed to critical race theory. No, Don!" McEnany said.
"Maybe you're a father like Ty Smith who doesn’t want your little son or daughter to be taught that they are oppressed, that they will have to navigate a systemically racist country that is at its core rotten," she added, referring to the Black Illinois father who was seen in a viral video arguing against the teaching of critical race theory.
She argued that a White father or mother might also disapprove of their child being taught that they are an oppressor because they're white.
"And when it comes to painting with a broad brush, I'm sick of Don Lemon telling me who is opposed to critical race theory and who isn't. I'm sick of him telling me that Trump voters are rude ... Get rid of that broad brush, Don, because it’s not working for you, and it's insidious, and it's tearing us apart," McEnany said.
