CV NEWS FEED // Days after Vice President Kamala Harris was named the Democratic presidential nominee, a July 2023 video clip of her advocating “reducing population” made its rounds on social media. “When we invest in clean energy and electric vehicles and reduce population, more of our children can breathe clean air and drink clean water,” Harris clearly said in the clip. The vice president delivered the remarks on July 14, 2023, at Coppin State University in Baltimore, Maryland as part of a speech on “Combatting Climate Change and Building a Clean Energy Economy.” At the time, critics quickly took...

Jens Stoltenberg, the 13th secretary general of NATO, says that the alliance is in talks to deploy more nuclear weapons and modernize their delivery systems. Stoltenberg told the Telegraph in the UK: “I won’t go into operational details about how many nuclear warheads should be operational and which should be stored, but we need to consult on these issues. That’s exactly what we’re doing.” Stoltenberg emphasized that NATO is a “nuclear alliance.” He explained: “N​ATO’s aim is, of course, a world without nuclear weapons. But as long as nuclear weapons exist we will remain a nuclear alliance, because a world...

The “father of the abortion movement,” Larry Lader, was heavily influenced by Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger, about whom he wrote a biography. Planned Parenthood was also steeped in eugenics from its beginning, and boasted a list of eugenics proponents as its board members. Although the two shared a eugenics ideology, Lader would eventually part ways with Sanger over abortion. But it was perhaps Sanger’s warped eugenic ideology that motivated Lader to manipulate the 1960s women’s movement to push for abortion legalization. Lader wasn’t interested in equal rights… just ‘abortion rights’ “Larry never seemed to be interested in the rest...

The Population Council, the eugenics organization credited with bringing the abortion pill (RU-486) to the United States, turns 65 this month — but it is nothing to celebrate. In 1952, John D. Rockefeller III founded the Population Council and served as the organization’s first president. According to the Rockefeller Foundation, the Population Council, Inc., was incorporated following Rockefeller’s Conference on Population Problems, “…to stimulate, encourage, promote, conduct and support significant activities in the broad field of population.” Like its founder, the Population Council’s other members were concerned about population issues — and, like other population organizations such as Planned Parenthood,...

It’s November 2023, and, following the October 7 attacks by Hamas terrorists that killed some 1,400 Israelis and at least 31 Americans, thousands of demonstrators march through New York City, calling for the destruction of the Jewish state. Chants of “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” echo through the streets, along with “there is only one solution: intifada revolution.” Among the crowd is the infamous Palestinian American activist Linda Sarsour, who warns through a megaphone that a cabal of wily Jews has conspired to place “their little posters” (of kidnapped Israeli civilians) across the city, seeking...

Whether it is the fountain of youth or the elixir of life, men have travelled the world looking for the key to increasing their longevity. They should be looking a bit closer to home, according to one leading researcher – although after they do, they might end up taking the years God intended for them. When it comes to increasing the lifespan of any male mammal, “there is one way you can intervene”: castration. Cat Bohannon, the celebrated author of Eve: How the Female Body Drove 200 Million Years of Human Evolution, said men went through life “smuggling two little...

At the behest of a Republican governor, a renowned interventional radiologist in perhaps the most conservative state in the nation has resigned from its Board of Medicine because he publicly opposed gender-related medical interventions for minors. Last year, Mark Gordon, the Republican governor of Wyoming, confirmed Casper radiologist Dr. Eric Cubin to serve on the state's Board of Medicine, which mainly grants and renews the licenses of Wyoming physicians and physician assistants. Cubin was then reconfirmed earlier this year for a term that was scheduled to end in 2028, the Cowboy State Daily reported. Likewise earlier this year, Wyoming lawmakers...

For months, scientists have worried that drought around Mexico City, which has over 22 million residues, would cause the city to run out of water. That day is approaching fast, and there is no alternative. Some groups of people in the city or some set of essential services will suffer within a few months or even weeks. The reservoirs of the Cutzamala water system, which provide about one-fifth of the city’s water, are essentially dry. The only available option is to attempt to take water from the aquifers below the city. There is not a large enough supply, and as...

Professor Bill McGuire is a well-known vulcanologist and climate scientist who doesn't care much for humanity. He tweeted out a scathingly brilliant idea if you're in the mortuary business or work as a grave digger. "If I am brutally honest, the only realistic way I see emissions falling as fast as they need to, to avoid catastrophic #climate breakdown, is the culling of the human population by a pandemic with a very high fatality rate." https://t.co/hzga69EhV3— Bill McGuire (@ProfBillMcGuire) May 11, 2024Ooopsie. McGuire deleted the tweet a few hours later but had no regrets. The trouble is, we just don't...

We are witnessing an explosion of cancer in the United States that is absolutely unprecedented. As you will see below, it is being projected that the number of new cases of cancer in the U.S. will hit a brand new record high this year, and cancer rates are rising particularly rapidly among our young people. There have been so many prominent individuals in the news that have been diagnosed with cancer recently, and so many people that I personally know have also been diagnosed with cancer recently. I am sure that most of you also personally know people that have...

A new Iranian law that raises the prospect of the death penalty for abortion has been condemned by independent human rights experts, who have declared that is in “clear contravention of international law”. In a statement released on Tuesday, the experts called on the Iranian authorities to repeal the ‘Youthful Population and Protection of the Family’ law, which was ratified by Iran’s Guardian Council on the first of November. The law, said the experts, severely restricts access to abortion, contraception, voluntary sterilization services and related information, in direct violation of women’s human rights under international law, and contains a provision...

Open Your Mind, and Your Mouth You might think of eating insects as something kids do on a dare. But some of these little animals are popular around the world for their nutritional value -- and they’re starting to catch on in the U.S. Not long ago, sushi and lobster didn’t seem all that appetizing to Americans, so it’s not as far-fetched as it sounds.

A physically healthy 28-year-old Dutch woman has decided to legally end her life due to her struggles with crippling depression, autism and borderline personality disorder, according to a report. Zoraya ter Beek, who lives in a small village in the Netherlands near the German border, is scheduled to be euthanized in May — despite being in love with her 40-year-old boyfriend and living with two cats. Ter Beek, who once aspired to be a psychiatrist, has been dealing with mental health struggles throughout her life.

Amazon founder and billionaire Jeff Bezos has joined Bill Gates in pouring tens of millions into developing synthetic meat while bankrupting farmers across the U.S. in the process. Bezos’ charitable organization, the Bezos Earth Fund (BEF), announced this week that it will spend a whopping $60 million on research and development of “alternative proteins,” or “plant-based and food-technology alternatives to animal protein.” The BEF’s new funding commitment is part of its $1 billion campaign to transform food systems to “fight climate change.”

New data from the Japanese government shows that Japan’s population is continuing to spiral into an unsustainable meltdown. Japan’s birth data for 2023 has just been published by the government and it shows the shocking crisis of the nation’s falling population appears to be accelerating. As Slay News has previously reported, experts had already been warning that Japan was facing a critical situation as birth rates have been plummeting to unsustainable levels. The data for 2022 revealed that the ratio of births to deaths had reached a point that is a long way from the level that is required to...

The Biden administration plans to use American tax dollars to convince people across the United States that “eating more bugs” will not only help “save the planet” but also a cost-efficient alternative to meat, falling in line with the World Economic Forum (WEF) ‘Great Reset’ agenda. The new push for a “meatless future” came after the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) began pouring hundreds of thousands of tax dollars into researching trash-fed crickets as an alternative to “unsustainable” protein production.

Wesley J. Smith wrote an excellent article that was published by the Epoch Times on February 5, 2024 on how states that have legalized assisted suicide have almost universally passed new expansive legislation, including the removal of state residency requirements that permit suicide tourism. For instance, Oregon and Vermont have removed their state assisted suicide residency requirement, permitting people to travel from anywhere to die by assisted suicide in those states. A recent court case is challenging the New Jersey assisted suicide law residency requirement, and an assisted suicide expansion bill in Colorado seeks to permit suicide tourism in that...

Atheist Vatican appointee says pro-abortion UN goals should form basis of ‘common good’Pontifical Academy for Life member Mariana Mazzucato suggested a redefined 'framework' for the common good aligning with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and echoing globalist sentiments expressed by Pope Francis.VATICAN CITY (LifeSiteNews) — The controversial member of the Pontifical Academy for Life, Mariana Mazzucato, told the academy yesterday that society’s “common good” must be based on the United Nations’ pro-abortion Sustainable Development Goals and that Christianity’s teaching contributed to “climate change.”Mazzucato’s striking statements came during her February 12 presentation at the annual assembly of the Pontifical Academy for...

The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, which has a history of providing financial support to left-wing groups, announced on Monday that it would spend billions of dollars in 2024. The Gates Foundation’s board of trustees has approved a record $8.6 billion budget for 2024, up from $8.3 billion in 2023 and $7 billion in 2022, the charity announced from Davos, Switzerland, where the World Economic Forum is hosting its annual meeting. Over the years, the charity has poured tens of millions of dollars into pro-abortion groups, Democrat-aligned nonprofits and Chinese government organizations, among other causes. The foundation works in areas...

In the bizarre world of the World Economic Forum (WEF), a speaker has boldly declared farming and fishing as “ecocide,” pushing for its recognition as a “serious crime.” Welcome to WEF Davos 2024, where the seemingly rational takes a backseat. The claim that the path to peace involves more weapons, more war, and inevitably more death is nothing short of mind-boggling. These declarations sound like a script from a dystopian novel rather than a serious discourse on global issues.
