Foreign Correspondent: Rightwing Populism Will Make You Sick-- Really... The World’s Worst Outbreaks Are Occurring In Nations With Authoritarian Leaders, Like Trump.
DownWithTyranny, DownWithTyranny! - 19 minutes ago
*-by Reese Erlich* @ReeseErlich The four countries with the most confirmed COVID-19 infections in the world are all led by rightwing populists: the US, India, Brazil, and Russia. Throw in the United Kingdom, which has the largest infection rate in Europe, and you have a common pattern. Leaders of these countries pose as men of the people battling the elites. In reality, they channel people’s darkest fears and prejudices into policies that benefit the ultra wealthy. Rightwing populists initially downplayed the seriousness of the coronavirus, adopting dangerous public health po...

I Called Everyone in Jeffrey Epstein’s Little Black Book: What I Learned from 2000 Phone Calls
Brian-Admin, Medical Kidnap - 34 minutes ago
Leland Nally, writing for Mother Jones, has just published an article about his efforts in calling everyone in Jeffrey Epstein’s "Little Black Book" - an effort that ended with nearly 2000 phone calls. Given what has happened to Jeffrey Epstein and the inability for all the alleged victims to face him in a court of law, we are reproducing Leland's entire article here under the Fair Use doctrine. It is already being republished across the Internet, helping to ensure that this information does not disappear. But as long as it is still up at Mother Jones, please go read it there and s...

Policymakers Must Look Beyond China in the ‘Race to 5G’
Colby Humphrey, The National Interest - 50 minutes ago
*Colby Humphrey* *Security, World* What if focusing on the global ramifications of the technology misses the internal divisions in the United States threatening the work being done to advance 5G’s growth? For many these days, America has an obligation to beat China—in everything. That, of course, doesn’t exclude the “race to 5G,” given the dire warnings that China, in particular, is racing ahead of America and Europe on a number of fronts. Certainly, there’s reason to worry. The global risks are real, as are the security and economic concerns should America fall behind on 5G dev...
Too Late to Fight: Meet the Douglas XB-19 World War II Bomber

However, it was outdated and only one was ever produced. What was the largest American bomber built during World War II?

However, that answer isn't technically the correc...
On The Vedic Devas
Unknown, The Conservative Socrates - 1 hour ago
We can make the *a priori* assumption that the Vedic *devas *(gods) predate the *Vedas*. Since the *Rigveda *is dated between twelfth and ninth centuries B.C., the conception of *devas *must have originated a few centuries before the twelfth B.C.—if the first Vedic sages didn’t have a prior knowledge of the *devas*, they could not have created the hymns on the divine attributes and actions of the *devas*. The word “*devas*” relates to beings who are connected to *swargloka *(heaven); they exist to counter the influence of the demons for whom the *Vedas *use words like “*Dasyus*” ...

Handgun Duel: Can Sig Sauer's P320 Take Down Glock?
Charlie Gao, The National Interest - 50 minutes ago
*Charlie Gao* *Security, * The P320’s primary difference from the Glock lies in it’s “fire control group”, a metal component that lays within the plastic frame that houses the trigger, sear, and parts that interface with safeties in the slide and the striker. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *Sig Sauer has also been more responsive to industry trends, utilizing more popular cuts and systems for attaching optics to handguns.

Why Does Africa Have Such a Low Coronavirus Death Rate?
Kevin Marsh, Moses Alobo, The National Interest - 50 minutes ago
*Kevin Marsh, Moses Alobo* *Coronavirus, Africa* [image: Reuters] What appeared at first to be a mystery looks less puzzling as more and more research evidence emerges. As the threat of a COVID-19 pandemic emerged earlier this year, many felt a sense of apprehension about what would happen when it reached Africa. Concerns over the combination of overstretched and underfunded health systems and the existing load of infectious and non-infectious diseases often led to it being talked about in apocalyptic terms. However, it has not turned out quite that way. On September 29th, the wo...
Why No One Wants a Iranian-Israeli War

*Robert Farley* *Security, Middle East* [image: https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?id=tag%3Areuters.com%2C2020%3Anewsml_RC2RHI9XN1BE&share=true] It would be bad for the entire region. *Key point: *This conflict would spill over and cost a lot of lives. Here is how bad it could get. Worries over war in the Middle East have largely shifted away from the tense relationship between Iran and Israel. Turkey’s ongoing conflict with the Kurds and Iran’s own jousting with Saudi Arabia have taken center stage, although Israel’s concern over growing Iranian influence has not abated. In su...

DownWithTyranny, DownWithTyranny! - 4 hours ago

What *The New York Times* reports tonight is mind-boggling: In several phone calls last weekend from the presidential suite at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, Mr. Trump shared an idea he was considering: When he left the hospital, he wanted to appear frail at first when people saw him, according to people with knowledge of the conversations. But underneath his button-down dress shirt, he would wear a Superman T-shirt, which he would reveal as a symbol of strength when he ripped open the top layer. He ultimately did not go ahead with the stunt. Is this true? Would Trump...
