Kamala Harris locked up a THOUSAND Californians for pot possession as state AG Vice President Kamala Harris has been slammed online as a hypocrite after she condemned Russian officials for sentencing basketball star Brittney Griner to nine years in prison for drug smuggling. The WNBA star was found guilty on Thursday by a judge who rejected her claim she accidentally brought a marijuana pen into the country. Prosecutors had asked that she be jailed for nine-and-a-half years, six months less than the maximum of 10 years in prison. Her attorneys say they have ten days to appeal the verdict and sentencing, and that the typical sentence handed down for such a crime is six years. Following ...

Amnesty International has in a surprise shift placed its human rights scrutiny on Ukraine in a fresh report released Thursday. It immediately sparked a firestorm of criticism as both Western pundits and Kiev officials themselves blasted the findings as "unfair". The Amnesty report said investigators had "found evidence of Ukrainian forces launching strikes from within populated residential areas, as well as basing themselves in civilian buildings in 19 towns and villages" in three war-torn regions of the country from April through July. The report detailed that schools and hospitals, as well as people's homes, were put in harm's way, suggesting 'human ...
How America’s Economy Was Destroyed

In 1945 the United States emerged from a world war with the only intact industrial economy in the world. The British, European, Soviet, and Japanese economies were in ruins. China and the rest of Asia, Africa, and South America had undeveloped economies, later renamed third world economies. Additionally, the US held most of the world’s gold reserves. President Franklin D. Roosevelt had used WW II to destroy Britain’s control of international trade and the British pound as the world reserve currency. The US forced breakup of the British system of trade preferences and the coerced Bretton Woods Agreement gave those roles to the United States. Four years of war production gave the ...
"Widespread Civil Unrest" Looming In UK Over Cost-Of-Living Crisis

Authored by Paul Joseph Watson via Summit News, The chance of “widespread civil unrest” occurring in the UK as a result of people being unable to afford to pay their bills due to the cost of living crisis is “inevitable,” according to one campaigner. With energy prices set to soar even higher in October as a result of the sanctions on Russia, many Brits have resolved to refuse to pay their bills as part of a growing backlash some are comparing to the poll tax riots. London was hit with violent riots back in 1990 in response to the government’s efforts to introduce the poll tax, and the new levy was eventually scrapped after a coalition of interest groups amongst ...

An official in Yemen's Houthi-led government has claimed that the Saudi-led coalition and their proxies have "looted" more than $13 billion in Yemeni oil revenues between 2016 and 2021. Abdul Malik Al-Ajri, who is a member of the National Negotiation Delegation said in a tweet yesterday, citing what he said were figures in a report by OAPEC [Organisation of Arab Petroleum Exporting Countries] and "in addition to our findings through the Marine Traffic website, which specialises in monitoring maritime traffic". Al-Ajri also described the Saudi-based Yemeni government as "mercenaries" who generated the revenues. Local news website 26sept.net noted that the ...

Another attack from Kiev has hit central Donetsk, targeting a funeral and a hotel where numerous reporters stay and work At 10:13 am today (Thursday), Ukraine began shelling central Donetsk. There were five powerful blasts in the space of ten minutes. The last explosion blew out my hotel's ground-floor glass, including a sitting room - where journalists often congregate before and after going out to do field reporting - and the lobby. About one minute earlier, I had passed through the latter. A cameraman's assistant who was there at the time of that fifth explosion suffered a concussion from the force of the blast. A woman walking outside the building was killed, as were at least ...

By Rachel Premack of FreightWaves For today’s MODES, I called up FreightWaves Editor-at-Large John Kingston to find out what the heck is happening with diesel prices recently. I learned a lot, but the most important takeaway was the World Oil Market Waterbed Theory. FREIGHTWAVES: Just to start off pretty broad, the macro conditions are pretty much the same from what we saw earlier this year to what’s happening now. Obviously, we haven’t built any new refineries in the past few months. There’s still a war in Ukraine. Why is it that future prices are going down, and maybe not as quickly, but retail gasoline and diesel prices are also going down? KINGSTON: ...

Poster Comment:Gonzalo Lira is from Chile. He is of Italian and German descent and went to school in the US. In this video, he tells us that in Allende's regime they rationed food. But a local committee would decide if they approved of your behavior. If they didn't, you would get nothing to eat. He says they are burning down food plants and trying to get food rationing here. It will be a digital card and you will have a social rating like in China.
Hunger In Africa: The Situation Is Serious

According to Welthungerhilfe, the main drivers of hunger include wars, climate change and the Covid-19 pandemic. Most recently, the Russian attack on Ukraine further exacerbated food supply problems. Even before that though, the situation in many African countries was serious, as this map based on the 2021 World Hunger Index illustrates. The index "annually measures and compares the severity of hunger and malnutrition in the world, different regions and individual countries." The situation is particularly dire in Somalia, with seven other countries rated as "very serious" - Chad, the Democratic Republic of Congo, South Sudan, Burundi, the Central African Republic the ...

Never before have so many athletes dropped dead than since early 2021 when Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) “vaccines” were first unleashed under Operation Warp Speed. According to the data, athlete deaths are up 1,700 percent compared to the monthly averages recorded since 1966. And if things continue on their current trajectory, the 2022 data will show upwards of a 4,120 percent increase in athlete deaths. In March of this year alone, three times as many athletes died compared to the previous annual average. That increase shows no signs of slowing as the full impact of Fauci Flu shots on public health is only just getting started. (Related: Check out our earlier coverage about ...

As in the USA, the governments of Euroland have declared war on their own people…. Boston, Massachusetts, may be even more Woked-up than the Pacific Coast cities. By “Woked-up” I mean susceptible to a quasi-religious frenzy that compels the performance of moral atonement scripts with an emphasis on obeisance to “experts” (credentialed hierophants) — such as Dr. Anthony Fauci, Dr. Rochelle Walensky, Dr. Klaus Schwab, and the various distinguished authors of Critical Race Theory. But it was still a bit of a shock last week to see the Boston Red Sox playing in sky blue and yellow uniforms in solidarity with the neo-Nazi failing state, Ukraine. I’d be ...
How a Missile in Kabul Connects to a Speaker in Taipei

This is the way the “Global War on Terror” (GWOT) ends, over and over again: not with a bang, but a whimper. Two Hellfire R9-X missiles launched from a MQ9 Reaper drone on the balcony of a house in Kabul. The target was Ayman Al-Zawahiri with a $25 million bounty on his head. The once invisible leader of ‘historic’ Al- Qaeda since 2011, is finally terminated. All of us who spent years of our lives, especially throughout the 2000s, writing about and tracking Al-Zawahiri know how US ‘intel’ played every trick in the book – and outside the book – to find him. Well, he never exposed himself on the balcony of a house, much less in Kabul. Another ...

Gonzalo Lira lives in Kharkov Ukraine. The Ukrainians have taken 60,000 ethnic Russian children away from the Donbass back behind their frontlines. They might be being held as hostages. The local people in the Ukraine fear that the children might be trafficked to sexual predators, never to return. This is not an unreasonable fear as 300,000 women and children are trafficked from Slavic countries every year. None are ever returned. Many are killed in snuff films. The word slave comes from the word Slav. Please help these children by making everyone you know aware of what happened to them. Demand that these children be allowed to contact their parents and families. Demand that independent ...

What if the purpose of sending nearly $60 billion in cash and military aid to Ukraine is to extend the war Ukraine can only win if American troops become involved? What if the government is giving Ukraine more borrowed federal dollars in six months than Ukraine’s entire annual budget? What if the government wants American troops in this war to take the minds of American voters off the dismal economic, cultural and social mess that America has become? What if American troops are present on the ground in Ukraine today? What if they are out of uniform so that the government has plausible deniability when asked if troops are fighting there? What if troops not in uniform who are captured ...

More than $5 billion in sales for "key Middle East partners"... Poster Comment:A sucker is born every minute. The Israelis thought the Patriot system sucked. It is no match for Iran's S-300 which should be upgraded to S-400. Iran is joining SCO and they did sell Russia 300 drones. The Iranians are Asians and won't tell anyone until the upgrade is complete. They might want to buy some of those Brahmos cruise missiles made by Russia and India for the export market. Mach 3, warhead 440 pounds, range - varies by sea 370 miles, land launch 430 miles. Russia will be deploying a new cruise missile in 2023 with Mach 10 speed and will upgrade the Brahmos to Mach 7.

Poster Comment:The woman in the end is Alina Lipp, a German journalist with relatives in Crimea. She has been charged in absence in Germany for allegedly supporting Russia and facing up to three years of jail if found guilty. As things are in Germany I cannot imagine the court not finding her guilty, but the sentence might be lower. Either way, it is a political persecution.
