Australian mining company European Lithium is in the process of securing two promising lithium deposits in Ukraine, aiming to become the largest lithium supplier in Europe and an essential part of an integrated European battery supply chain. The two deposits, discovered and subsequently explored in the 1980s and 1990s, are located in Shevchenkivske in the Donetsk region and in Dobra in the Kirovograd region of western Ukraine. Both sites are said to be “under-explored” according to modern methods and “contain significant expected resources”, according to a statement by the Australian company, who have so far made a name for themselves...

Outlines First Whole-of-Government Strategy to Protect Consumers, Financial Stability, National Security, and Address Climate Risks Digital assets, including cryptocurrencies, have seen explosive growth in recent years, surpassing a $3 trillion market cap last November and up from $14 billion just five years prior. Surveys suggest that around 16 percent of adult Americans – approximately 40 million people – have invested in, traded, or used cryptocurrencies. Over 100 countries are exploring or piloting Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), a digital form of a country’s sovereign currency. The rise in digital assets creates an opportunity to reinforce American leadership in the global...

A new study, however, finally confirms what anecdotal evidence and other research have long suggested – these animals do slumber, just as we do. "We have provided the first physiological evidence of sleep in sharks," the team writes in their paper, led by ecophysiologist Michael Kelly from the University of Western Australia. Two sleep phases are well known in birds and mammals, and even octopus – suggesting each stage plays an important role in our physiology, but little is known about this process in cold-blooded back-boned animals. So the team investigated signs of sleep in the draughtsboard shark (Cephaloscyllium isabellum),...

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - With Republicans exploiting soaring gasoline prices to gain political ground ahead of this year's congressional elections, President Joe Biden's team is pursuing a counter-narrative strategy: blame it on Russian President Vladimir Putin. Biden and his administration have coalesced around the phrase "Putin price hike" to describe the energy inflation challenges created by Russia's invasion of Ukraine and retaliatory Western sanctions, White House officials said. The administration has already begun looking at scenarios in which oil tops $200 a barrel, a senior administration official told Reuters. The White House is counting on Americans, appalled by images of Ukrainian...

On Tuesday’s broadcast of CNBC’s “Closing Bell,” Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm said that it’s possible Iranian oil might come back on the global market if a nuclear deal is reached, and if increased Iranian oil is a byproduct of the deal, “so be it.” Granholm stated, “I know that the Biden administration has conversations with allies and adversaries all the time. I know that we are looking to create partnerships with countries that may be unusual in the broader spectrum of energy, including energy technologies. I’ve been meeting with folks…who are from all manner of countries who also want to...

The Pentagon on Tuesday evening shot down a Polish proposal to transfer their MiG-29 fighter aircraft to Ukraine and receive replacement aircraft from the United States. The Pentagon said in a statement that the plan was not “tenable.” Pentagon Press Secretary John Kirby said: As we have said, the decision about whether to transfer Polish-owned planes to Ukraine is ultimately one for the Polish government. We will continue consulting with our Allies and partners about our ongoing security assistance to Ukraine, because, in fact, Poland’s proposal shows just some of the complexities this issue presents. The prospect of fighter jets...

After announcing a ban on American imports of Russian energy, President Biden's decision to turn to Venezuela, Saudi Arabia, and even Iran as potential substitutes to fill the void in the global marketplace has raised a question within the U.S. oil and gas industry: Why not look to domestic producers first? "You have two options," said Tim Stewart, president of the U.S. Oil and Gas Association. "One, you import from the Iranians and the Venezuelans, two terrorism-sponsoring states. Or you open up the U.S. domestic production. And for whatever reason, the [Biden] administration seems to think that the Iranian and...

On Tuesday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Your World,” Sen. Pat Toomey (R-PA) argued that we need to put secondary sanctions on Russian banks to keep China from undercutting American sanctions. Toomey stated, “Well, there’s an easy way to prevent that…to impose secondary sanctions on Russian banks. And what — the way the secondary sanction works is, it’s a very simple proposition that we establish — we, the United States. And that is, if you’re a bank anywhere in the world, you can do business with Russia if you want, but then you can’t do business with the United...

WASHINGTON (AP) — Congressional leaders reached a bipartisan deal early Wednesday providing $13.6 billion to help Ukraine and European allies plus billions more to battle the pandemic as part of an overdue $1.5 trillion measure financing federal agencies for the rest of this year. Though a tiny fraction of the massive bill, the money countering a Russian blitzkrieg that’s devastated parts of Ukraine and prompted Europe’s worst refugee crisis since World War II ensured the measure would pass with robust bipartisan support. President Joe Biden requested $10 billion for military, humanitarian and economic aid last week, and Democratic and Republican...

VIDEO AT LINK............................ Joe Biden traveled to Fort Worth, Texas on Tuesday to visit the VA. Biden is visiting the VA clinic to “to speak with veterans, caregivers, and survivors about addressing the health effects of environmental exposures such as burn pits,” the White House said. Three Texas Congressmen joined Biden on Tuesday – Rep. Colin Allred (D), Rep. Marc Veasey (D) and Rep. Jake Ellzey (R). Joe Biden went off-script at one point during his speech and that’s when things got awkward. “The three congressman you have here, two of them look like they really could and did play...

Senate Bill 669 could be interpreted to allow for abortions through the first month after the baby is born, a legal analyst says. Featured Image ANNAPOLIS, Maryland (LifeSiteNews) – Legislation proposed in the Maryland Senate would allow babies to be left to die for as long as the first 28 days after birth, according to analysis from a pro-life attorney. Senate Bill 669 is also known as the Pregnant Person’s Freedom Act of 2022, but the problems go beyond the use of “person” in place of accurate references to women having babies. Senator William Smith, a Democrat, sponsored the legislation,...

PARIS, March 9. /TASS/. If the EU is going to embargo supplies of Russian oil that would be the equivalent of "committing harakiri," French lawmaker and presidential candidate Marine Le Pen told the France-2 TV channel. "Trying to harm Russia by committing harakiri is a poor method," she said, commenting on the EU’s proposal to impose an embargo on the deliveries of Russian oil. "In this case, our economy is running the risk of dying first and it seems like nowadays that’s what we are aspiring to do," she insisted. "The use of this instrument would mean sanctioning the French...
