BILL III, Virus & Vaccines Emperor, Lobbied US-EU Govts with $8.3 Million Through His NGOs: Intrigues, secrets and mysteries not yet revealed by the big investigation by Politico and Welt journalists on Gates’ Lobbying to US and EU Governments. The investigation by American and German journalists is for now only a stone against the pigeon house because it would be interesting to know who, according to their sources, are the American and European officials or politicians who have received part of $8.3 million to support Gates’ plans and of its NGOs.

Sen. Kaine says Mountain Valley Pipeline provision in Manchin bill ‘could open the door to serious abuse and even corruption’: The bill would require the federal government to issue outstanding permits for the project within 30 days, including authorizations from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to protect endangered species, from the Bureau of Land Management to allow the pipeline to cross the Jefferson National Forest in Virginia, and from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to approve its remaining crossing of federal waters. The legislation says that none of those actions would be subject to review by the courts. Additionally, it would transfer any legal action related to the pipeline or challenges to the act itself from the 4th Circuit to the D.C. Circuit.

Trouble bubbles up in newly formed Alaskan lakes. Scientists are worried. Lakes appearing in Alaska because of melting permafrost are “belching” methane into the atmosphere, a scientist working with NASA said. These lakes, called thermokarsts, are so full of the climate-damaging gas that it can be seen bubbling to the surface.

How close is the Amazon tipping point? Forest loss in the east changes the equation: Scientists warn that the Amazon is approaching a tipping point beyond which it would begin to transition from a lush tropical forest into a dry, degraded savanna. This point may be reached when 25% of the forest is lost. In a newly released report, the Monitoring of the Andean Amazon Project (MAAP) estimates that 13.2% of the original Amazon forest biome has been lost due to deforestation and other causes.

Why is corn syrup in so many American infant formulas? “When we look on the scale, it’s roughly two out of 100 children who received this formula with corn syrup solids were obese compared to those who received the other formulas. And that was consistent at ages two, three, and four years,” Goran explained. “Of WIC participants, roughly 15 out of 100 will be obese by the time they age out of eligibility” at age four, said Christopher Anderson

Formulas for toddlers are a burgeoning business in the United States: Sales of the drinks more than doubled in recent years as companies convinced parents that their little ones needed the liquid boost. But many experts warn that these products, designed for children ages 1 to 3, fill no nutritional needs beyond what is available in a typical toddler diet, are subject to less regulation than infant formula, and are expensive.

Former President Trump launched a fresh attack on New York attorney general Letitia James: Trump attacks ‘racist’ New York AG Letitia James for her $250 million ‘witch hunt’ lawsuit, claims she is the fraud and wouldn’t have sued him if it wasn’t for her ‘really bad’ poll numbers in her reelection campaign. ‘I never thought this case would be brought, until I saw her really bad poll numbers. She is a fraud who campaigned on a ‘get Trump’ platform,” Trump said. “James is spending her time fighting for very powerful and well represented banks and insurance companies instead of fighting murder and violent crime.”

DeSantis pushing Christian nationalism has Florida newspaper warning of white supremacy: Florida governor Ron DeSantis campaigning for president by pushing Christian nationalism was the focus of a new editorial published online by the Miami Herald on Saturday afternoon. “Is America a Christian nation? The United States is a secular nation with no official religion, so the answer is No,” the editorial board wrote. “But to Republicans such as Florida Gov. DeSantis, simplifying the answer to a Yes is a powerful tool. They’ve found a political gold mine in pitting Christians against the so-called evils of the left, gay and transgender people and teachers accused of pushing a ‘woke’ agenda.”

Trump’s team was happy — until the 11th circuit derailed them on Wednesday: “The most serious parts of that criminal investigation — the obstruction of justice element and the violation of the Espionage Act, the willful retention of national defense information — those are really, really serious potential charges. The fact the Justice Department has those materials means that Trump’s effort to delay this has been effectively stymied.”

Watch: Nazis and Proud Boys clash with anti-fascists outside Texas church hosting drag queen bingo: Under the blazing sun outside, the scene at First Christian Church felt chaotic – and angry.

The counter-protestors believed it was important to create a space that felt safe. Some on both sides hid their faces. Some on both sides displayed big guns.

How an addicted brain works: Addiction is now understood to be a brain disease. Whether it’s alcohol, prescription pain pills, nicotine, gambling, or something else, overcoming an addiction isn’t as simple as just stopping or exercising greater control over impulses. This is what’s at play when you hear about reward “systems” or “pathways” and the role of dopamine when it comes to addiction. But what does any of that really mean?
