*Jon Jackson, Newsweek:* *NATO Has Already Crossed Vladimir Putin's 'Red Line'* Russian President Vladimir Putin has repeatedly warned NATO about interfering in the Ukraine war, even going so far as to bring up retaliation if Ukraine becomes a threat to Russia because of Western help. According to some experts, NATO has already crossed the line that Putin has said would justify an attack from Russian forces. Last week, the Russian leader said during an address to lawmakers that any countries that "create a strategic threat to Russia" in Ukraine can expect "retaliatory strik... read more
THERE'S A THIN LINE BETWEEN BEING A NATIONAL CONSERVATIVE INTELLECTUAL AND BEING A HIGH SCHOOL BULLY
Here's Matt Gaetz, a shallow jerk: How many of the women rallying against overturning Roe are over-educated, under-loved millennials who sadly return from protests to a lonely microwave dinner with their cats, and no bumble matches? — Matt Gaetz (@mattgaetz) May 4, 2022 And here's J.D. Vance, an intellectual and deeply cerebral "national conservative" thought leader: Vance ... for a solid week in July kept using the term “childless” in an effort to insult his foes on the left. “We’re effectively run in this country, via the Democrats, via our corporate oligarchs, by a bunch of ch... read more

to control both Church abd Pope
You must place supreme value upon your emergent Christhood. Treat it as a diamond that must be cut and polished and treasured, beloved. Through these shepherds we may yet hold the balance. We repeat the message, for some have not understood—or in hearing their ears are waxed dull and they do not interpret right action from their hearing! Let the Christed ones then be concerned with their future and the future of the Earth. Let them gather in the heart of Mount Zion-- that is, in the consciousness of God. And in that consciousness let them choose the land we have prepared. And without... read more
MSNBC’s Squinty & Meat Puppet's Joe Scarborough Advising Vice President Train Wreck
According to a new book about the Biden administration, New York Times reporters Jonathan Martin and Alex Burns document the general consensus among Democrats that Kamala Harris's tenure as vice president has been, in the words of a former Senate colleague, "a slow-rolling Greek tragedy.

A Monetary Reset Where The Rich Don’t Own Everything
In ancient Mesopotamia, it was called a Jubilee. When debts at interest grew too high to be repaid, the slate was wiped clean. Debts were forgiven, the debtors’ prisons were opened, and the serfs returned to work their plots of land. This could be done because the king was the representative of the gods who were said to own the land, and thus was the creditor to whom the debts were owed. The same policy was advocated in the Book of Leviticus, though it is unclear to what extent this biblical Jubilee was implemented. That sort of across-the-board debt forgiveness can’t be done toda... read more

Marking Workers’ Day In Dispiriting Times
Most young people in South Africa do not have a job and are, under current circumstances, unlikely to ever have one. For years, deindustrialization and the collapse of mining laid waste to unionized jobs. Now state austerity is hacking away at the public sector. Many of the few new jobs that are being created are poorly paid, precarious and not well unionized. Some of this can be ascribed to powerful global forces that are difficult for any state to resist. And the deep structural features of our society were built by colonialism and are so entrenched that they cannot easily be ch... read more

Cost Of The Ukraine War Felt In Africa, Global South
While international news headlines remain largely focused on the war in Ukraine, little attention is given to the horrific consequences of the war which are felt in many regions around the world. Even when these repercussions are discussed, disproportionate coverage is allocated to European countries, like Germany and Austria, due to their heavy reliance on Russian energy sources. The horrific scenario, however, awaits countries in the Global South which, unlike Germany, will not be able to eventually substitute Russian raw material from elsewhere.

L.A. County To Bring High-Speed Internet To Poor Black, Latino Areas
Post-pandemic, there is near universal agreement that fast reliable internet is as essential as electricity or water, but the debate over who should provide it and how is still heated.

Even in California — where legislators lifted a restriction on public broadband in rural areas in 2018 — publicly owned networks are still rare. Now, however, $65 billio... read more
Democrats: The Ukraine War Is Over
The emotional outrage of the Democrats has now been redirected to the Supreme Court.

Elon Musk: Champion of Free Speech or Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing?
It’s quite clear that Musk is on board with the whole technocratic/transhumanist agenda, so why is he all of a sudden being cast as a champion of democracy and free speech? Simple. The globalists are playing “good cop, bad cop”. Klaus Schwab, Bill Gates, the Rockefellers, etc are the “bad guys” and Musk is the “good guy” who has come along to offer humanity a better way forward. There’s only one problem.
