Inner core rotation, wait, the planet’s core is rotating? The inner core is spinning faster than the mantle and even faster than the Earth as a whole. So why is that happening?

Crazy talks on Israeli-Palestinian conflict prove US is enemy of world peace: Since the latest bloody conflict broke out between Israel and Palestine, voices calling for restraint or a cease-fire are hard to find in Washington.

The US is sending an aircraft carrier strike group to the Mediterranean to be Israel’s cheer leader and is exploiting the conflict. It is disheartening to witness such politicians and political advisors prevailing in Washington.

Google User Data Has Become a Favorite Police Shortcut: Google maintains one of the world’s most comprehensive repositories of location information. Drawing from phones’ GPS coordinates, plus connections to Wi-Fi networks and cellular towers, it can often estimate a person’s whereabouts to within several feet. It gathers this information in part to sell advertising, but police routinely dip into the data to further their investigations. Rather than naming a suspect, law enforcement identifies basic parameters, a set of geographic coordinates or search terms,  and asks Google to provide hits, essentially generating a list of leads. By their very nature, these Google warrants often return information on people who haven’t been suspected of a crime.

They Promised “Advanced Recycling” for Plastics and Delivered Toxic Waste: Plastic giants have gone so far as to dub the process “advanced recycling,” but environmentalists say this is a misnomer because the majority of the plastic processed at such facilities is not recycled at all. In fact, researchers have found that the process uses more energy and has a worse overall environmental impact than virgin plastic production. Despite these challenges, lawmakers nationwide are now embracing the technology, thanks to a massive lobbying push from petrochemical groups

Joe Biden, Who Promised Not to Resume Trump’s Border Wall, Is Doing Just That: Fast forward two and a half years, and the Biden administration is now waiving 26 federal regulations to resume construction of Donald Trump’s border wall in Starr County, Texas. The administration claimed that the move is “mandated by law.” But what about the dozens of other laws Biden is waiving to continue construction?

COVID Masking Hysteria Was Never About Following the Science: On my return to the Capitol after recovering from COVID, I was met by a gaggle of young journalists. They barreled up to me with multiple masks on their twenty-something-year-old faces and demanded to know why I wasn’t wearing a mask.  Reporters, none of whom had a science degree (nor had any of them likely even passed an advanced science course), angrily and self-righteously excoriated me for my ‘ignorance’ and my ‘dangerous noncompliance.’ What they did not do was challenge my position in any meaningful way by citing scientific studies based on randomized controlled trials showing any efficacy of masking for viral infection. No. The ignorance of today’s ‘journalists’ is staggering. They only repeat the dogma fed to them.

Donald Trump’s Israel Intel Leak Under Scrutiny After Hamas Attack: Donald Trump’s sharing of alleged classified intelligence to Russian officials in the White House has come under scrutiny amid a large-scale attack by the Hamas Islamist military group against Israel. In May 2017, the former president defended his actions after he was found to have discussed sensitive details about an alleged Islamic State (ISIS) plot with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Ambassador Sergey Kislyak in the Oval Office. Trump said he had an absolute right to do so. The intel was said to have been provided to the U.S. from Israel.

The incredible, unbelievable crusade against children: The undeclared goal of the Agenda is the transition to a transhumanist dictatorship via full-scale refashioning of society which entails the complete eradication of all that is normal and natural, from food and medicine to human reproduction and interaction, including the sexualization of children. The UN publishes the International Technical Guidance on sexuality education under its Global Education Agenda 2030; the latest edition can be summarized as follows: “Children are sexual beings who must have sexual partners and begin having sex as soon as possible. For this reason, kindergartens and elementary schools must teach children to develop lust and sexual desire, learn masturbation, build same-sex relationships, use online pornography, and learn different sexual techniques such as oral sex.”

Unique ‘fingerprints’ of laboratory manipulation in the Covid virus: In the summer of 2020 a paper describing the findings of an Anglo-Norwegian team of scientists who had demonstrated unique ‘fingerprints’ of laboratory manipulation in the Covid virus, was suppressed in both the US and UK. Vaccine travelled throughout the body. First the ‘vaccine’ did not stay at the site of injection as promised but travelled throughout the body and were found at post-mortems to be everywhere. A German biologist whistleblower has found contamination rates of up to 354 times the recommended limit. All this has been reported to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). It is highly significant.

Primary Aldosteronism also called Conn’s syndrome, is a disorder in which your adrenal glands make too much of a hormone called aldosterone. Aldosterone helps regulate your blood pressure by balancing sodium and potassium levels in your body. Because it largely goes undiagnosed, new guidelines from the Endocrine Society suggest patients be screened if they have: blood pressure readings over 150/100 taken on three different days, sleep apnea, or family history of early-onset hypertension or hypertension that is resistant to conventional drugs.

Medicare Advantage Is a Massive Scam: The program rips off both the taxpayer and its own enrollees. The sales pitch is an abject lie. Medicare Advantage is much worse than traditional Medicare for people on the program and costs a great deal more to boot. But unless the Biden administration changes course, private companies will soon devour the rest of the program. One would think that the Biden administration would be looking to reverse course, but it isn’t. On the contrary, it has proceeded with a Trump-era plan to privatize the remaining shreds of Medicare by letting private companies serve as payment middlemen through something the Trump team called “direct contracting.”

However, this year’s figures show encounters increased significantly from March to April and remained high throughout May and June, before rising again in July—with 6,158 encounters nationwide in a single month. “We know that China is using everything that they have, every bit of espionage, to spy on our military and our high technology,” said Rebecca Grant, Ph.D., a national security analyst at IRIS Independent Research. “And we know China’s government is not our friend, so this dramatic upswing, I think it could definitely present a potential national security risk.”

How Polarization Sent Washington to the Brink of a Shutdown: Lawmakers are less reliant on political parties for money. Greene, for example, was the ninth-largest fundraiser in the 2022 election cycle among current House members, and 98% of her money came from individual donors rather than party, corporate or political-action committee sources, data from the nonpartisan group OpenSecrets shows. Ocasio-Cortez ranked 10th, and essentially all of her money came from individual donors.

# Covid / Pandemics / Biologicals
The real data behind the new COVID vaccines the White House is pushing: What if I told you one in 50 people who took a new medication had a “medically attended adverse event” and the manufacturer refused to disclose what exactly the complication was, would you take it? The Food and Drug Administration cleared it without any human-outcomes data and European regulators are not universally recommending it as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is?
COVID vaccines are very different from flu vaccines. COVID vaccines have higher complication rates, including severe and life-threatening cardiac reactions.

Britain All Out of Arms to Give to Ukraine: A U.K. military chief said the country has “run dry” of the artillery shells and air defense assets Ukraine needs. “We’ve given away just about as much as we can afford,” the official was quoted as saying. “We will continue to source equipment to provide for Ukraine, but what they need now is things like air [defense] assets and artillery ammunition and we’ve run dry on all that.”

Trump is ramping up his threats and provocations. Even if one or two of his followers act on them, the result would be tragic: One day after he posted “IF YOU GO AFTER ME, I’M COMING FOR YOU!,” a woman called the chambers of U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan, who has been assigned to the election fraud case against Trump, and said that if Trump is not reelected next year, “we are coming to kill you.” (The woman was later charged with making the call.) The top prosecutors on the four criminal cases against Mr. Trump, two brought by the Justice Department and one each in Georgia and New York, now require round-the-clock protection.

The very first beat: how a heart starts to pulse: Hours of footage of zebrafish embryos let researchers capture and study this key moment in development. One moment there’s nothing, the next … a heartbeat. As a vertebrate embryo grows, its heart tissue starts to pulse well before it’s needed. But how does the developing heart actually coordinate that very first beat? Using microscopes and glowing fluorescent proteins, researchers have been able to watch zebrafish embryos during this key point in development and examine the process in real time.

Rising inflation [has] hobbled many households.

George W. Bush Is Building a Memorial to the War on Terror. He Wants Your Feedback: Over 4.5 million people will not be submitting comments because they are dead.The global war on terror memorial will be located on the National Mall near the memorial to the Vietnam War, which lists the names of over 58,000 American dead. It might be nice to do the same kind of thing here but include the names of everyone from every country who died thanks to the global war on terror.

How Russia’s Hybrid Warfare is Changing: Russia’s approach to hybrid warfare has undergone a shift, moving away from primarily relying on nonconventional measures and tactics towards a greater emphasis on conventional methods. The framework of the argument is constructed through an analysis of Russia’s experiences in hybrid warfare across various conflicts such as the Afghan War, Chechnya, Georgia, Syria, and Ukraine. Methodologically, the analysis is based on the non-linear concept of hybrid warfare, commonly referred to as the “Gerasimov doctrine.” This concept acknowledges the utilization of both conventional military tactics and nonconventional tactics, emphasizing the use of nonconventional as primary measures

FEMA is planning to test its alert system October 4th; why
it’s dangerous to some people: The test will consist of two
parts: The WEA alerts will go to all cell phones, and the EAS
alerts will go to radios and televisions. FEMA and the FCC
are coordinating with wireless providers and other
emergency managers to make sure confusion is minimized
and public safety is elevated. Victims who keep a “domestic
violence phone” make sure it is turned off at 2:20 p.m. in
the afternoon when the emergency alerts go out. This will
prevent the alarm from sounding off and alerting the
abuser of the lifeline’s existence, a warning that should have
been added to FEMA and FCC’s communications.
