  • 1938: first 'pay for slay' Nazis/Fascists pay Arabs £5 to kill a Jew

    We should never have taken our marching orders from Signor Mussolini. We should have countered the proposals and the propaganda which Italy and Germany poured in to make the Arabs not anti-Jew but anti-British. The "Times" has informed us that for five pounds an Arab can be got to kill a Jew. I wonder where the money comes from?Parliamentary Debates: Official Report. United Kingdom: H.M.

    Russia launched its first huge missile wave on Ukrainian cities in weeks. The missiles killed at least nine civilians and cut electricity supplies in several cities. Ukraine’s military said its forces repelled over a hundred Russian attacks in Bakhmut in the past 24 hours. Meanwhile as the war rages on, the birth rate in Ukraine has dropped sharply since Russia’s invasion. Population of Ukraine is about 43 million and of these about 8 million left after the invasion. From the people who left almost all were women as men have limits on leaving due to conscription. CNBC-TV18’s Sanjay Suri gets...
  • GOSAR: Kevin McCarthy’s Removal From The Speakership Will Be Discussed If He Does Not Release Full January 6 Footage

    Gosar laid the epic gauntlet down on an appearance on the Stew Peters Show. Republican Arizona congressman Paul Gosar told Stew Peters on Monday that if House Speaker Kevin McCarthy does not release all of the January 6 footage in his possession then Gosar is “sure” that Republicans will discuss the possibility of removing McCarthy from the speakership with a motion for McCarthy to “vacate the chair.” Gosar made the comment in an appearance on The Stew Peters Show. Kevin McCarthy won the Speaker’s gavel after a contentious and historical 15-vote marathon during the first week of 2023. He only...
  • SVB had no risk chief through much of 2022, proxy statement shows; Last year, Silicon Valley Bank’s risk committee doubled the number of meetings it held, suggesting board-level concern over the bank’s financial position.

    The collapse of Silicon Valley Bank may have appeared sudden and unexpected on the outside. But the company and its chief risk officer parted ways in April 2022, and its risk committee more than doubled its meetings to 18, suggesting growing concern with the bank’s position, according to the company’s 2023 proxy statement. Depositors, advised by venture capital firms to pull their money after the company sought a $2.25 billion capital raise to shore up its equity position, withdrew some $42 billion in cash over 44 hours, creating the liquidity crisis that led the FDIC to take over the bank...
  • BIDEN CRISIS: Moody’s Downgrades Banking Segment to “Negative”, Assets in US Banks Are $2 Trillion LESS than Their Balances

    gateway pundit ^ | 3/14/2023 | joe hoft
    Biden couldn’t have done a better job destroying the US economy if he tried. Earlier today, Moody’s dropped its rating for the Banking SEGMENT from stable to negative. This was a huge event that those in the banking and finance areas know is a very big deal. Moody’s doesn’t downgrade entire segments without much thought and discussion on the matter. CNBC reported: “We have changed to negative from stable our outlook on the US banking system to reflect the rapid deterioration in the operating environment following deposit runs at Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), Silvergate Bank, and Signature Bank (SNY) and...
  • The Silicon Valley Bank collapse wasn’t unique, it was just first

    Boston Globe ^ | March 14, 2023 | Peter Schiff
    Last week Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell spent two days on Capitol Hill, fielding countless questions from members of Congress about monetary policy. Nowhere in that exercise in happy-talk and obfuscation did anyone mention the possibility of a banking collapse that in less than one week would delegitimize the entire exercise. There are some calamities that arise without warning, like tsunamis or World War I, but the sudden collapse of Silicon Valley Bank, and the government’s over-the-top reaction to it, should have been as predictable as February snow in Buffalo. While many are arguing that the collapse of SVB is...

    In a scathing opinion on Wednesday that questions the credibility of the Department of Homeland Security, U.S. District Court Judge T. Kent Wetherell II for the Northern District of Florida has ordered a stop to the Biden administration’s “Parole Plus Alternatives to Detention” (“Parole+ATD”) policy that has been illegally releasing hundreds of thousands of aliens into the U.S., concluding that it violates the Administrative Procedure Act, which governs rulemaking by federal agencies. In Florida v. U.S., the state of Florida is claiming that the DHS is violating the mandatory detention required in federal immigration law by releasing aliens “en masse...

    Riot police took down Antifa surrounding a UC Davis Charlie Kirk event sponsored by TPUSA on Tuesday evening. Antifa members were spotted smashing windows and doors on campus and vandalizing the campus. The militants also blocked students and members of the public from entering the university to attend the event.
  • The Biden Justice Department Stands Accused of Hiding This Evidence of Biden-China Corruption

    The Justice Department is not disclosing to the public or Congress links between President Biden’s son Hunter and brother James and a corrupt Chinese government agent who doled out millions of dollars in bribes. It has scrubbed the connections from court documents and is suggesting it doesn’t have evidence clearly in its possession. In addition, the department appears to be trying to silence another disreputable partner from coming forward to tell what he knows about the Bidens' Chinese connection. In 2016, FBI counterespionage agents began collecting voluminous evidence against Chinese national Chi Ping “Patrick” Ho, who was suspected of paying...

    President Joe Biden apparently plans to make gun control a campaign issue, even if he doesn’t have the votes to pass more gun control laws. On Tuesday, Biden will announce an executive order intended to control the availability of guns as much as he can without going through Congress. He’ll make the announcement in Monterey Park, California, where 72-year-old Huu Can Tran shot and killed eleven people with a semi-automatic pistol in January, during Lunar New Year celebrations. […] President Biden continues to insist on passage of an “assault weapons” ban, a blanket term that could cover many of the...

    The Republican Party is once again in a war of words with itself over the war in Ukraine — this time because of Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida.In a statement submitted to Tucker Carlson's Fox News show, DeSantis said that the war in Ukraine was not among the United States' "many vital national interests," adding that "becoming further entangled in a territorial dispute between Ukraine and Russia is not one of them.""The Biden administration's virtual 'blank check' funding of this conflict for 'as long as it takes,' without any defined objectives or accountability, distracts from our country's most pressing challenges,"...
  • Not every Ukrainian wants to join the army: "I stay at home for fear of mobilization'

    NOS News Netherlands ^ | 3/14/2023 | Chiem Balduk
    The Ukrainian army is finding it increasingly difficult to recruit new men. Not all men want to serve at the front, because of moral objections or because they want to dedicate themselves to the country in a different way. At least 26 Telegram groups that helped men escape mobilization have been banned by the Ukrainian security service. A few hours after the Russian invasion last year, martial law was declared. Since then, men between the ages of 18 and 60 are no longer allowed to leave the country. They are subject to compulsory military service, with exceptions for, for example,...
  • Whose ‘Stalingrad’ will Bakhmut be?

    Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft, Inc ^ | MARCH 14, 2023 | Geoffrey Roberts
    Is the epic battle for Bakhmut turning into the Stalingrad of the Russia-Ukraine war? Would the city’s capture by Russian forces swing the war decisively in Putin’s favor? On the other hand, would a successful Ukrainian defense of the city provide the springboard for a tide-turning counter offensive to push back Putin’s invasion? Like Bakhmut, the Battle of Stalingrad of 1942-1943 was a prolonged war of attrition — 200 days of fire as the Soviets liked to say — albeit on a much larger scale. Casualty figures are hard to pin down but scholars have generally estimated 850,000 Axis soldiers...
  • ‘Proponent of Hate:’ UC Davis Chancellor Freaks Out over Charlie Kirk Event

    Breitbart ^ | 14 Mar 2023 | ALANA MASTRANGELO
    UC Davis Chancellor Gary S. May called Turning Point USA (TPUSA) founder Charlie Kirk a “proponent of hate” on Tuesday, ahead of Kirk’s speaking event at the school, and encouraged students to “neutralize and negate” TPUSA’s influence on campus. In a video message responding to students who are allegedly in “distress” over the upcoming event on campus, May bizarrely referred to Kirk as “a well-documented proponent of misinformation and hate,” and claimed he has “advocated for violence against transgender individuals.”
  • Protest In Bnai Brak: Police use violence to disperse haredi counter-protesters Anti-judicial reform protesters flew LGBT flags, brandished a mock Ten Commandments (Israel)

    A protest and counter-protest held in Bnai Brak on Tuesday evening turned ugly after one person allegedly pepper spray at a police officer, and police used force in an attempt to disperse haredi protesters from the scene. On Monday, organizers of the anti-government protests against judicial reform announced that they would be demonstration outside the home of MK Moshe Gafni, a member of the United Torah Judaism party (UTJ). "The demonstration will be the opening salvo in a broad process against the involvement of haredi Knesset members in advancing laws to create a coup d'état, and we will first be...

    Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Tuesday warned the U.S. against turning its back on Ukraine, after Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) suggested that Russia’s war in Ukraine should not be one of America’s “vital national interests.”“If [Russian President Vladimir] Putin loses in Ukraine, then the world resets in all the right ways,” Graham tweeted. “If he wins in Ukraine and the west capitulates just like in the past, more conflict is coming.”“When it comes to Putin, you either pay now or pay later,” Graham said, adding, “If you do not understand that success by Putin in Russia invites aggression by...
