    A Chinese warship in seas facing the Taiwan Strait began live-fire drills on Saturday as Beijing launched military exercises it calls a warning against what it considers pro-independence forces in Taiwan. The amphibious landing ship - capable of carrying troops and vehicles - fired multiple artillery rounds in the Luoyan Bay area on the coast of Fujian province, about 50 km (30 miles) northwest of the Matsu islands near the mainland that are controlled by Taiwan. China views the democratically governed island of Taiwan as its own territory and has never renounced the use of force to bring it under...

    Yuval Noah Harari is a leading ideologue of the wannabe one-world government criminal cartel and the WEF’s favorite mouthpiece. His main message seems to be that humans can be technologically captured, controlled, and “hacked” or manipulated and thus enslaved to serve the WEF/WHO controlling uber-class. I was alerted to this video by a reader. In this TED talk from 2015 Harari postulatesthat humans, as opposed to animals, are unique in their capacity to believe fictional stories, and thus can be controlled via the narrative, via fiction, as long as everyone believes the same story. According to him, the idea of...

    Podcast Transcript The movie The Purge depicts a fictitious world where one night a year, there is a war of all against all. If you look back in history, you will find a time when something similar happened. Except it wasn’t a case of everyone against everyone, it was a case of everyone against a few. For those who were the victim of this, it was terrifying. Learn more about proscription lists and why you never wanted to be on one on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily. Before I get started, I should note that I’m talking about ‘proscriptions’,...

    Last week a member of the trans community unleashed a wave of devastation upon Christians in Nashville that ended the lives of six of our brothers and sisters in Christ including three young children. I noted in my last post on this subject how we must learn to hate evil again as it continues to creep up in the world around us being endorsed and praised by the mainstream press, academics, culture, and major multi-national corporations.Since the shooting took place we have seen a massive wave of endorsement and support of the trans community. We’ve seen a male transgender golfer...

  • Mary Pickford – America’s Sweetheart – Just Like A Woman – The Girl With The Curls

    Mary Pickford was America’s Sweetheart in the silent movies of a distant departed world. Mary was famous as The Girl With The Curls ....... In 1912, Mary Pickford starred in a movie called “Just Like A Woman” again long before Bob Dylan wrote his strangely passionate, haunting 1966 song: "Nobody feels any pain Tonight as I stand inside the rain Ev’rybody knows That Baby’s got new clothes But lately I see her ribbons and her bows Have fallen from her curls ……" Perhaps, like Dylan in 1966, we still yearn for the type of woman that Mary Pickford, The Girl...

    A metro area woman said her car and dog were stolen by individuals experiencing homelessness. “They took off with my car and my dog,” Julie Oliva said. Oliva said in late March, she stopped to help a man experiencing homelessness. She admits to letting him inside her Alfa Romeo to warm up. Soon after that man got out of her car, she said she noticed her cell phone was missing. Oliva said she then made contact with a group of people, also experiencing homelessness, who claimed to know the man in question. What can legally be done with a meth-contaminated...

Chloe-Elizabeth Elliot from Pontefract raises her daughter Elizabeth-Hope on a rigorous diet of oats, yoghurt and homemade pasta, as well as a fresh serving of fruits every day. So manicured are her baby's taste buds that on her first birthday, the tot ate the fruit around her cake and skipped the carby treat completely. And the 19-year-old content creator is totally headstrong about her choices, claiming other people's opinions don't bother her. 'I just...

    A woman on Chicago’s South Side is sharing her story in hopes to find her beloved puppy after it was stolen from her at gunpoint. She said her Cane Corso was stolen at gunpoint Wednesday night in the city's East Chatham neighborhood. “He’s a hyper little two-month-old puppy, dark gray coat, big blue eyes,” the victim said. “He’s just the sweetest. He whimpers when he sees me because he knows who I am.” Just days after receiving him as a birthday gift, the owner of the two-month-old Cane Corso is now making an emotional plea to find him. “You can...
  • Vegan activist Joaquin Phoenix gets back in the saddle for Napoleon - five years after sharing his 'regret' at riding horses for movie roles

    Ardent vegan activist Joaquin Phoenix finds himself uncomfortably on horseback in the new Napoleon film by British director Ridley Scott. Indeed, you can see in Phoenix's face just how much he enjoys it.. the answer being, not a lot. Phoenix will have found himself horribly conflicted when forced to get back in the saddle. He has been vegan since the age of three and believes that using any animal products — or using animals full stop — is a 'gross abuse of power'. In 2018 he talked about having to ride horses in The Sisters Brothers — and how he...

Military documents containing sensitive information about U.S. and NATO material supporting the Ukraine military in their fight against Russian forces began appearing on social media. "We are aware of the reports of social media posts, and the Department is reviewing the matter," Sabrina Singh, Pentagon deputy press secretary, said Friday morning. Friday night, Singh said the DOD has made a referral to the DOJ regarding the leak.
  • 21 million Americans may take a hypothyroidism drug they don't need (90% don’t need levothyroxine (Synthroid))

    Medical Xpress / Yale University / Clinical Chemistry ^ | April 6, 2023 | Isabella Backman / Joe M El-Khoury et al
    As many as 90% of those who take levothyroxine [Synthroid] may have been unnecessarily prescribed the hypothyroidism medication. Providers diagnose hypothyroidism by first measuring TSH levels in the blood. If the level is elevated, they will conduct a second test examining Free T4 levels. If TSH is high and Free T4 is low, the provider diagnoses the patient with hypothyroidism. Levothyroxine works by supplementing low hormone levels with exogenous T4. Some patients, however, have mildly elevated TSH and normal Free T4. Providers diagnose this as subclinical hypothyroidism, and sometimes this is also treated with levothyroxine to lower TSH. This practice...

    Italian former prime minister Silvio Berlusconi vowed on Friday (Apr 7) to survive another stint in hospital, as the 86-year-old media mogul showed signs of improvement following treatment for leukaemia and a lung infection. The billionaire, a larger-than-life figure who has dominated Italian public life for decades, was admitted Wednesday to the intensive care cardiac unit at Milan's San Raffaele Hospital. On Friday, the Berlusconi-owned newspaper, Il Giornale, ran a front-page photo of a younger, beaming "Cavaliere" from a past election campaign, with the headline, "I won't give in".
  • Appeals court ruling puts hundreds of Jan. 6 felony cases in limbo

    Politico ^ | 4/7/23 | KYLE CHENEY and JOSH GERSTEIN
    Hundreds of Jan. 6 obstruction cases — one of the most commonly charged felonies against those who breached the Capitol or confronted police that day — are facing new uncertainty after a divided appeals court ruling Friday. The three-judge panel spared the Justice Department an immediate disaster by agreeing to permit three challenged Jan. 6 obstruction cases to continue. But the judges — one liberal and two conservatives — all raised serious questions about whether other Jan. 6 obstruction cases might face legitimate challenges. At the heart of the conflict is how to measure whether Jan. 6 rioters acted with...

    A group of experts has discovered proof that people during the Bronze Age used drugs in their ceremonies. By examining hair strands from a burial location in Menorca, Spain, researchers have learned that our ancestors took in hallucinogenic drugs derived from plants. This new information presents the initial clear evidence of drug use in olden Europe. These drugs may have been an important part of their traditional events and practices, according to the researchers. The scientists identified three specific substances, scopolamine, ephedrine, and atropine, in three separate hair samples that they replicated. The researchers noted that due to the dangerous...
