Why Is Biden Giving Amnesty to 700,000 Migrants? Joe Biden reversed the border policies of his predecessor, former President Donald Trump, and thereby created a historic disaster. Migrants are flooding into the country illegally and overwhelming U.S. facilities.

Scientists ‘shocked’ and ‘alarmed’ at what’s in the mRNA shots: While running an experiment in his Boston lab, McKernan used some vials of mRNA Pfizer and Moderna Covid vaccines as controls. He was ‘shocked’ to find that they were allegedly contaminated with tiny fragments of plasmid DNA. McKernan, who has 25 years’ experience in his field, ran the experiment again, confirming that the vials contained up to 18-70 times more DNA contamination than the legal limits allowed by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Rise of the RoboTruck Lobby: Gov. Gavin Newsom vetoes driverless truck safety bill after autonomous vehicle interests spent big on lobbying and wined and dined his top aides. The veto delivered a massive win to Big Tech and a major blow to labor unions and road safety advocates, since backers of the bill say the rapid rise of driverless trucks may jeopardize trucking jobs and make public roadways more dangerous.

The Menendez scandal reflects the world that SCOTUS built: Gold bars, guns, cash stuffed into a coat, and favors for a foreign government, the new indictment of U.S. Sen. Bob Menendez reads like the plot of a cheap pulp novel satirizing political graft. The allegations against the longtime lawmaker are too real, and the purported scheme too predictable, in a country whose judiciary has been effectively telling politicians corruption is perfectly legal.

‘The Cash Monster Was Insatiable’: How Insurers Exploited Medicare for Billions: A New York Times review of dozens of fraud lawsuits, inspector general audits and investigations by watchdogs shows how major health insurers exploited the program to inflate their profits by billions of dollars.

ProPublica and the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette have filed suit against the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in federal court in New York, accusing the agency of holding back records related to the sweeping recall of breathing machines that were sold around the world. In June 2021, Philips Respironics acknowledged that an industrial foam fitted inside its popular DreamStation continuous positive airway pressure, or CPAP, machines and other devices could break down and send particles and fumes into the masks worn by patients. Health risks include headaches, respiratory conditions, nausea and “possible toxic and carcinogenic effects,” the company said.

How CIA Supplies Ukraine With White Phosphorus: Today we’d like to talk about Bulgaria again and shed light on another CIA gray scheme for arms smuggling. American intelligence services managed to establish an unofficial channel for the procurement and supply of arms and ammunition from Bulgaria to Ukraine, bypassing the U.S. Congress as well as ignoring the opinions of ordinary Americans.

WW3 Nightmare: British Defense Chief wants to send UK Troops to Ukraine: The newly-appointed Defence Secretary, Grant Shapps, has unveiled ongoing discussions about expanding the UK-led training program for Ukrainian troops and potentially relocating British instructors into the country itself, as well as offering Kiev unspecified naval support in the Black Sea. “I was talking today about eventually getting the training brought closer and actually into Ukraine as well,” Shapps told The Telegraph after a visit to a Salisbury Plain training ground, on Friday.

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

On March 12, 2022, in the area of the town of Popasna, in the Luhansk region and under the control of Ukrainian forces, the use of incendiary ammunition was recorded. This effect could also be seen in other regions of Ukraine during the war.
