Free trade is much ballyhooed by the US and the capitalist world, but critics have been skeptical as to whether such trade freely takes place.

Investopedia provides a useful definition of free trade:

A free trade agreement is a pact between two or more nations to reduce barriers to imports and exports among them. Under a free trade policy, goods and services can be bought and sold across international borders with little or no government tariffs, quotas, subsidies, or prohibitions to inhibit their exchange.

The concept of free trade is the opposite of trade protectionism or economic isolationism.

In the eyes of the US, China is threateningly making major headway in 6G, AI, robotics, supercomputing among other technology fields. This has scared the Biden administration, so Biden has sought to cut off Chinese access to semiconductor chips below 14 nanometers. Foreign Policy called it going for Chinas jugular after one term of ex-US president Donald Trump inflicting flesh wounds to China.

This is economic coercion and is unacceptable, said Chinas foreign ministry spokesperson Mao Ning of the US actions. China did not stand idly by; it banned the US memory chip Micron on security grounds.

China, correspondingly, has reduced its import of chips by $129.1 billion since 2022, harming US, Taiwanese, and Korean exporters and giving Shanghais SMIC a shot in the arm.

The Supreme Court is effectively axing a major component of the Clean Water Act, rolling back 50 years of wetland protection in a declaration of war against nature by changing a word in the text of the Clean Water Act.

Seldom, if ever, will repercussions of a Supreme Court decision be so far-reaching and detrimental to life for the planet. Its a dagger strike deep into the heart of the worlds most significant life source. Sauel Alito changing the text of the Clean Water Act is guaranteed to bring forth much, much worse flooding, especially along coastlines as sea levels rise from global warming; itll engender new sources of pollution of streams and lakes and bring on huge losses in biodiversity and crush the beauty of nature displaced by concrete, asphalt and development. Most importantly, aquifers depend upon wetlands for replenishment.

The Supreme Ct ruling in Sackett v. EPA effectively reverses what the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change -IPCC- stands for in its fight against climate change and global warmings impact on the planets life support ecosystems.

Wetlands are warriors. By far, the most effective fighters against the ravages of climate change, for example, they are: (1) carbon sinks that sequester 10 times more carbon than mature tropical forests; studies show they outperform lame, insufficient carbon capture and sequestration machines, which will never get the job done (2) natural line of defense against flooding (3) home to 40% of all the worlds species (4) a major component for natures hydrology system, filtering/cleansing water for streams and lakes and most significantly, replenishing aquifers. Without wetlands, rainfall follows concrete, asphalt, development channels away from aquifers. NASA claims 1/3rd of the worlds largest aquifers to be dangerously stressed, e.g., portions of the Ogallala aquifer in the Texas Panhandle have gone dry and in west-central Kansas the Ogallala aquifer has gone dry. The Ogallala is the largest aquifer, by volume, in the world, underlying 8 states.

Turkey elections: Five urgent challenges Erdogan will face in his third term

The International North-South Transport Corridor (INSTC), a significant transport initiative spanning more than 7,200 kilometers, is a clear illustration of the resilience and desire to enhance global interconnectedness in Eurasian trade. Designed to facilitate efficient cargo transportation between India, Russia, Iran, and Azerbaijan, among others, the INSTC has evolved into a critical geopolitical hub with serious implications for each participant and their respective regions.

Recent dialogue between Indias Defense Minister Rajnath Singh and his Iranian counterpart, Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Gharaei Ashtiyani, has refocused attention on this corridor. This backgrounder will consider the distinct roles and interests of the corridors four primary participants: India, Iran, Russia, and Azerbaijan. Special attention will be given to Indias current presidency of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) and the intent to further develop the INSTC in line with the economic and geopolitical interests of these four nations.

Background of the INSTC

The INSTC was established in 2000 and ratified by India, Iran, and Russia in 2002. Its primary purpose was to provide an efficient trade route connecting the Indian Ocean and Persian Gulf with the Caspian Sea, extending further to Northern Europe. The corridor offers an attractive alternative to the traditional Suez Canal route, with the potential to reduce transit times by 40% and freight costs by 30%.

Understanding the strategic importance of the project, India views the INSTC as pivotal to the strengthening of ties with Central Asia, a region rich in hydrocarbons and of key geopolitical significance. That move was followed up by Indias ascension to full membership in the SCO. However, the projects implementation was delayed due to sanctions imposed on Iran.

The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), signed by Iran and several world powers, including the US, in July 2015, momentarily alleviated these difficulties by lifting some sanctions and boosting prospects of the INSTC. However, the US withdrawal from the JCPOA in 2018, followed by the imposition of stricter sanctions on Iran, introduced new challenges, causing significant delays in infrastructure projects related to the INSTC.

BY BILL RICE, JR. | MAY 26, 2023

If you have an hour to spare, I highly recommend reading this document, which summarizes and debunks many of the false and counterproductive mandates. This 22,000-word paper was produced by authors from the Isle of Man of all places.

It is divided into five sections including in-depth treatment of virus origins, iatrogenic deaths, lockdowns, mandated masking and vaccines. I think it might be the most impressive and persuasive piece of Covid writing Ive read.

After reading the document, I was struck by the sheer number of massive scandals that have overlapped and cascaded like a series of tsunamis on the world in the past three-plus years.

By orders of magnitude, every one of these scandals dwarfs Watergate. As the authors point out, all are horrific and nightmarish.

Building upon the authors arguments and adding a few of my own scandals that werent highlighted in this paper, Ive identified 10 of these scandals. Again, each one by itself would probably qualify as the greatest scandal and outrage of our lifetimes.

When listed one after the other, readers are left with overwhelming evidence that our world must have gone completely mad. These scandals, roughly in chronological order, include:

(Mad) Scientists funded and encouraged by our own government probably created this virus.

The above  possibility is not discussed in the document. However, from my perspective, I see only three virus-origin possibilities:

1. The virus crossed over into the human population via bats and then other animals.
2. The virus was created or modified in a lab and either accidentally escaped or was intentionally released.
3. And a theory that is embraced by a growing number of people there was no new novel coronavirus.

The latter two possibilities should, of course, qualify as massive, historic scandals.

If government-funded scientists (in America and China and perhaps other countries) created this virus, all they did was turn the world upside down and kill and sicken tens of millions of people (either from said lab-created virus and/or from the response to the alleged pandemic.)

Similarly, if one is convinced there was no new novel virus, our scientific experts and authorities would ha...

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov. Click to enlarge

The US and its allies are playing with fire by doubling down on their support for Kiev amid the conflict with Moscow, including by planning to provide Ukraine with F-16 fighter jets, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said.

Of course, its an unacceptable escalation, Lavrov stated regarding potential deliveries of American-made warplanes to Kiev in an interview with Russia 1 TV on Sunday.

I think there are reasonable people in the West who understand this. But everything is being dictated by Washington, London, and their satellites inside the EU,

According to the minister, it is Poland and the Baltic States Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia that are executing on the ground the aim set by the US to weaken Russia, deliver it a strategic defeat.

Some in the West are already discussing decolonization of Russia, meaning the dismembering of our country, Lavrov said, warning that this is playing with fire. There can be no doubts about that.

I hope reasonable people will step away from unconditional support for the neo-Nazi regime that the West itself created, he added.

The foreign minister suggested that the words of the chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Mark Milley, who acknowledged earlier this week that in the near term, Ukraine will not be able to recapture the territories it lost to Russia, were a step forward to understanding the reality on the ground.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has been pressing his Western backers for F-16 warplanes for months, arguing they are crucial for defending Ukrainian airspace amid Russias missile campaign targeting military facilities and energy infrastructure.

At the G20 summit last week, US President Biden Joe Biden said that Washington would support efforts by the UK, the Netherlands, and other European countries to train Ukrainian pilots to fly the F-16. White House National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan stated at the event that the US will work with our allies to determine when planes will be delivered, who will be...

Dog Poet Transmitting.

We have entered an age of staged and manufactured bullshit. From Photoshop to holograms to AI the means are there. I dont know whats at the source of this particular bullshit, but I can tell when somethings off, and I get that sensation in near continuous fashion these days.

Apparently after 4 years in the cemetery, they had a CUSTOMARY transfer of the body from where they first planted it to a space under the altar. Then The Mother Abbess looked through a crack in the coffin and saw that the body was not decomposed. It seems they could have saved themselves a great deal of trouble to begin with, but then they wouldnt have their miracle.

Now it sits in the main concourse of the church where people get to do a bit of laying on the hands cure their Bursitis commune with dead relatives or simply get a photo taken with the dead AND DEPARTED nun.

Here we encounter one of those demonic peculiarities of Religion, where people worship old bones and kneel before the priestly celebrities, in their coffin-bound glitter suits, who carry official and approved scepters; wear magic rings and funny hats, and ramble on about how God fits between designated parameters. These parameters have been defined by the priests themselves on Gods behalf. How can we not be grateful for the intercession of priests?

The Smithsonian has a body that is called, Soapman. He was turned into soap when alkaline water from the soil leaked into his coffin. There are all kinds of anomalies of this sort. Lord Nelson was killed at The Battle of Trafalgar and preserved in a cask of rum for the journey home. Theres a rum called, Nelsons Blood. Some say it was a cask of brandy yadda-yadda not the point.

Female members of The Royal Family have been known to pickle themselves in gin. There are all kinds of reasons besides God deciding to that could account for the disinterred nuns condition. Heaven doesnt operate this way. People looking to make a buck operate this way. Personally, Ive no interest in the toenail clippings of a saint or a splinter of The True Cross; no such thing could exist as a power because The True Cross is SOMETHING OTHER THAN THAT!

Why does something like this bear writing about? It is because yo...

This article, first posted in 2009, inspired a eureka moment. Of course!

This is why so many politicians are gay, why heterosexuality is being repressed and homosexuality and pederasty foisted on us instead.

It explains why the elite is gay, and phallic obelisks are everywhere.  Humanity has been inducted into a pagan sex cult that involves gendercide i.e. gender genocide.

Pike states that an initiate commemorates in sacramental observance this mysterious passion; and while partaking of the raw flesh of the victim, seems to be invigorated by a fresh draught from the fountain of universal life.Hence the significance of the phallus. (p.393)

The Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) mRNA vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna have DNA contamination.

Microbiologist Dr. Kevin McKernan has discovered unacceptable levels of double-stranded DNA plasmids floating around Pfizer and Moderna vaccines. Pharmaceutical and medical device R&D executive Sasha Latypova expounded on McKernans findings in an interview with The Freedom Corner with Peter Sweden.

Latypova said the DNA contamination is a significant problem because the replicable DNA plasmids can invade human cells and bacteria in the gut. This invasion can lead to the replication of antibiotic-resistant genes, sepsis, cancer and other health issues.

Experts at the World Council for Health (WCH) also confirmed that DNA contamination in mRNA vaccines is a global risk. They said the presence of replicable DNA plasmids in both the monovalent and bivalent vaccines is unacceptable, and called for an immediate halt to the COVID-19 vaccine program.

Besides the DNA contamination, McKernan also discovered the presence of Simian virus (SV40) promoters in Pfizers mRNA vaccine. The SV40 found in the vaccine is just a viral piece not the whole virus. However, it still presents a risk of driving cancer.

SV40 was initially found in rhesus monkey kidney cells used to produce both inactivated polio vaccine (IPV) and oral polio vaccine (OPV.) When it was discovered to be an animal carcinogen, a law was passed in 1961 to prohibit its presence in vaccines. (Related: The true story of SV40, the cancer-causing virus hidden in polio vaccines.)

COVID-19 vaccines are disarming peoples immune systems 

McKernan warned that there is a lack of quality control in the manufacturing process of Moderna and Pfizer vaccines, and it could pose risks such as anaphylaxis, blood clotting, antibiotic resistance, gene integration and long-term production of spike protein in the body.

Dr. Mark Trozzi, a Canadian physician and medical researcher, supported McKernans findings about the high concentrations of bacterial DNA in P...

A while ago, we stated that there were MPs who were doing the job they were elected to do.

One of them is the Right Hon. Esther McVey MP, who continues to ask questions prompting now routine escape and evasion answers from HMG. They must have taken a master class from the Great Houdini or undergone SAS selection, where you must withstand interrogation if caught.

Here is the latest example answered by no less than the MP who openly persecuted us on a website because, amongst other peccadillos, we dared to question the rules of six (remember that?).

HMG and Mr OBrien MP announced that they have absolutely no intention of investigating the causes of excess mortality in England and Wales. Instead, they ran for cover behind the usual waffle of F&C words and sundry conditions and will set out a strategy. A bit too late for those who have left us; the Minister, however, was careful not to mention statin starvation and lack of BP monitoring, so at least they have stopped making fools of themselves. Maybe.

But there you have it, young or old, black or white, poor, very poor or very very poor, hot or cold, you can die before your time, and its ok with HMG.

A truly democratic set of principles.

Despite the official attitude, we will continue to keep this public health drama in the public eye, but we need your help, all of you, your friends and your contacts.

Think of what we have been through in the last three years and what the families of those who died must feel.
