The director of the IMF and any number of central bankers met in Davos last week to discuss their plans to set citizens across the world on a path to a “sustainable” future. Central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) are a major part of this agenda. Proponents of CBDC’s maintain they are a necessary mechanism for increased ‘global cooperation.’ Continue reading “CBDC’s and the Fed”
The US Supreme Court ruled recently on the government’s use of the state secrets doctrine in an opinion that will make it easier for intelligence agencies to evade accountability in future individual rights cases. In US v. Zubaydah, government torture policy and state secrets converge. A torture victim requested information related to his treatment at a CIA “black site,” and the government blocked that request, citing national security interests. Seven members of the Court joined parts of an opinion siding with the government, with only Justices Sotomayor and Gorsuch dissenting. The case has implications for other torture-related cases and for government accountability more broadly as it expands state secrecy powers based on a doctrine that was already overbroad, and suspect in its origins.

Bill Gates appears to be behind the push to stop breastfeeding and encourage uptake of BIOMILQ, a cell-cultured “human milk” made in a lab, along with other varieties of fake food. Synthetic, lab-made food can’t compare to food that comes from nature in terms of nutrition or environmental protection. And when you’re dependent on fake food, your very survival is also dependent on the handful of companies that manufacture them. Continue reading “The Guardian Partners with Bill Gates to Push Lab-Made Baby Formula Plus Other Things You Should Know About Fake Food”

President Joe Biden is overzealously targeting firearm retailers to drive them out of business. Federal firearm license revocations for retailers have increased 500 from previous years. That’s got gun control groups excited, but it is casting a pall over the cooperative relationship firearm retailers maintain with law enforcement. Continue reading “500 Percent Spike In Biden Administration Shutting Down Gun Retailers Over Typos”

The topic of inflation is in the news nearly every day and is now the top concern among voters in most polls. Things are likely to get even worse.
Most Americans are familiar with the all items Consumer Price Index (CPI). This metric is based on changes for all consumer goods and services. However, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Economic Research Service measures the changes to retail food prices only. The agency’s May Food Price Outlook should add to voter concerns.

Late last month, the United Senate overwhelmingly approved a $40 billion emergency military and humanitarian aid package for Ukraine as part of the effort to support the country in its ongoing war with Russia.

Inflationary and stagflationary crisis events open up a lot of doors and create a lot of convenient opportunities for globalists obsessed with the ideology of total centralization. A key aspect of the “Shared Economy” agenda put forward by the WEF is the concept of UBI (Universal Basic Income). If the government becomes the primary pillar of the economy and the primary source of necessities for a large portion of the population, then this makes public defiance of government mandates much less likely. Continue reading “Universal Basic Income? IMF Calls For Governments To Subsidize Food And Energy”
President Biden stated that the Second Amendment is “not absolute,” then segued into a gun control push that included at least eight different gun law proposals.

The Chinese Communist Party’s all-out effort to gaslight the world into forgetting about its human rights abuses continued Wednesday with a bizarre state media editorial urging the entire world to sue the United States for supporting terrorism.

Two days following a mass shooting at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, Rep. Carolyn B. Maloney (D-NY), chairwoman of the U.S. House Committee on Oversight and Reform, sent a set of questions to the five leading manufacturers of AR-style semi-automatic rifles, including Bryan County-based Daniel Defense – maker of the DDM4 V7 AR15-style rifle used by the shooter to kill 19 fourth-graders and two teachers. Continue reading “Congressional Committee demands answers from Daniel Defense, other gun manufacturers”
Taser and surveillance vendor Axon has proposed what it claims to be the solution to the epidemic of school shootings in the United States: a remote-controlled flying drone armed with a taser. For many many reasons, this is a dangerous idea. Armed drones would mission-creep their way into more every-day policing. We must oppose a process of normalizing the arming of drones and robots.
