Make of this whatever you will….but…It ain’t over until it’s over!

…a few days ago I posted that Some dude said he had knowledge that during and under the cover of the eclipse there would be two planes spraying a dry powder bacterial bio-weapon, and 7 -10 days later people would begin getting sick….and this would give the UN/WHO etc the excuse to call a new pandemic. Take a look at where I started this video at 6:14:10. It shows two chemtrails that have been made as the moon goes into full eclipse over Detroit Michigan.

Now it’s a waiting game to see if people begin getting sick in 7-10 days and by coincidence the sickness just happens to follow and spread from the  path of the eclipse. FWIW but it ain’t over until its over! www

Insurers Spy On Houses Via Aerial Imagery, Seeking Reasons To Cancel Coverage

Insurance companies across the country are using satellites, drones, manned airplanes and even high-altitude balloons to spy on properties they cover with homeowners policies — and using the findings to drop customers, often without giving any opportunity to address alleged shortcomings.

NetZero And Human Rights Are Mutually Exclusive

Everybody talks a good game when asked about environmental concerns. But they underestimate what real “climate action” will cost them, personally, and they’re prone to balking when they figure it out…

The unpleasant truth is – if policy makers are serious about achieving netzero, it will require a massive policy of degrowth that will impoverish the masses and demolish the economy – none of which is conducive to being re-elected. Which means: if world governments are serious about climate action, they will have to impose a totalitarian dictatorship to achieve it.

The coming Climate Authoritarianism will make COVID tyranny seem like a libertarian paradise.

Germany Reportedly Goes On Military Spending Spree To Hit NATO Spending Minimums For First Time

In 2006, NATO defense ministers agreed that each member country would commit at least 2% of its GDP to defense spending. Nearly two decades later, some member countries have not met the target, only to be recently reminded by former President Trump to ramp up defense spending or face severe consequences.

Perhaps Germany’s ruling coalition heard Trump’s warning loud and clear

More Russian LNG Being Exported To Europe Than Asia

Decline Of The EU Center, Pro-Russia Candidate Elected President Of Slovakia

The EU further splinters.

Slovak nationalist-left pro-Russia government candidate Peter Pellegrini won the country’s presidential election on Saturday, cementing the grip of pro-Russian Prime Minister Robert Fico over the country.

The EU is increasingly dysfunctional. Rules make it near impossible to implement any major changes on the Euro, trade policy, and fiscal policy rules, areas that require unanimity to make changes. In areas where countries can decide individual actions such as support for Ukraine, Slovokia now firmly joins Germany and Hungary in a pro-Russia stance.

Yellen Dispatched to Beg China for Face-Saving Slowdown

SIPLICIUS THE THINKER

The U.S.’ growing urgency in ‘containing’ China’s development was thrown in sharp relief this week as Janet Yellen arrived in Beijing for what turned out to be an execrable beggar’s tour. Just days prior to her arrival, she had buzzed the punditry with her historically memorable exclamation that China was now operating at “overcapacity”(!!).

What is overcapacity, you ask? It’s a new word for me, too—so let’s look it up together:

overcapacity
noun
o·?ver·?ca·?pac·?i·?ty: ??v?r-k?-?pa-s?-t?
1: When an insolent upstart nation’s surging economic activity totally humiliates the reigning hegemon’s own faltering economy, causing the many expensive dentures and porcelain veneers of the ruling class gerontocracy to jiggle and grate with moral outrage and jealousy.

1b: An undesirable situation causing Janet Yellen and Nancy Pelosi’s stock portfolio to droop like a pair of botox-sapped jowls.

Are we on the same page? Good.

……………

First and foremost, it’s become almost a passe bromide to observe: “The U.S. funds wars, while China funds development.” But it really is true. Think about this for a moment:

Esquire reported that a Brown University investigation found the U.S. has spent an ineffable $14T on wars since 9/11:

And yes, the current U.S. debt is a massive $34T. That means quite literally almost half of the entire current U.S. debt was blown on endless, mindless, genocidal wars in the Middle East.

The U.S. has wasted its entire blood and treasure on war. Imagine what the U.S. could have built with $14 trillion dollars? Where the U.S. could have been in relation to China for that amount? As someone else noted, the U.S. could have very well built its own “one belt and road” project for that money, connecting the world and reaping untold benefits.

China hasn’t spent a cent on war, and puts everything right back into economic development and wellbeing for its own people.

…………….

One big difference between China and the U.S. is that China is open to sharing the earth, willing to co-prosper with the U.S. Conversely, the U.S. is unwilling to abdicate its global domination:

I know many here are reluctant to see China as anything other than the Bad Guys BUT ….seriously

It’s tie to get over the old “Red” China Evil Empire paradigm …Just like we have gotten over the Evil Commie Russia paradigm . The world has changed…Have you noticed ?

NAIA bans transgender (male) athletes from competing in women’s sports.

The National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) governs 241 small colleges. Vote was unanimous, 20-0.

The NAIA Council of Presidents approved the policy in a 20-0 vote. The NAIA, which oversees some 83,000 athletes at schools across the country, is believed to be the first college sports organization to take such a step.

According to the transgender participation policy, all athletes may participate in NAIA-sponsored male sports but only athletes whose biological sex assigned at birth is female and who have not begun hormone therapy will be allowed to participate in women’s sports.

Havekost expects lawsuits will follow and challenge the NAIA policy on the basis of Title IX laws. “I feel like at some point, it will have to be addressed,” she said. “It’s a really complex issue. It might take a Supreme Court ruling.”

China Paid $250,000 To “Threat Actors” In Canada In 2018 And 2019

A new document given to Canada’s Foreign Interference Commission suggests that Chinese officials may have offered $250,000 to “threat actors” in 2018 and 2019, according to a new report from The Globe and Mail.

The Canadian Security Intelligence Service document on election interference said that prior to and during the 2019 election “a group of known and suspected People’s Republic of China related threat actors in Canada, including PRC officials, worked in loose coordination with one another to covertly advance PRC interests though Canadian democratic institutions.”

“Some of these threat actors received financial support from the PRC,” and says “reporting indicated that 11 political candidates and 13 political staff members were assessed to be either implicated in or impacted by this group of threat actors,” the document says.

GOOGLE WON’T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT ISRAEL USING ITS PHOTO SOFTWARE TO CREATE GAZA “HIT LIST”

Google prohibits using its tech for “immediate harm,” but Israel is harnessing its facial recognition to set up a dragnet of Palestinians.

THE ISRAELI MILITARY has reportedly implemented a facial recognition dragnet across the Gaza Strip, scanning ordinary Palestinians as they move throughout the ravaged territory, attempting to flee the ongoing bombardment and seeking sustenance for their families.

The program relies on two different facial recognition tools, according to the New York Times: one made by the Israeli contractor Corsight, and the other built into the popular consumer image organization platform offered through Google Photos. An anonymous Israeli official told the Times that Google Photos worked better than any of the alternative facial recognition tech, helping the Israelis make a “hit list” of alleged Hamas fighters who participated in the October 7 attack.

“It is an understatement to say that aiding and abetting a genocide constitutes a violation of Google’s AI principles and terms of service,” Koren, now an organizer with No Tech for Apartheid, told The Intercept. “Even in the absence of public comment, Google’s actions have made it clear that the company’s public AI ethics principles hold no bearing or weight in Google Cloud’s business decisions, and that even complicity in genocide is not a barrier to the company’s ruthless pursuit of profit at any cost.”

Hyper-sexual “zombie cicadas” that are infected with sexually transmitted fungus expected to emerge this year

Periodical cicadas spend most of their lives underground and only emerge after 13 or 17 years. This year, two broods of cicadas will emerge: Brood XIX, which comes out every 13 years, will emerge in the Georgia and Southeast, and Brood XIII, which emerges every 17 years, will appear in Illinois. With this convergence, Trillions of cicadas will emerge across several U.S. states this spring in an event one expert dubbed “cicada-geddon.” The bugs will arrive in numbers that have not been seen in generations.

Once the cicadas emerge from the ground, they molt into adults, and within a week to 10 days, the fungus causes the backside of their abdomens open up. A chalky, white plug erupts out, taking over their bodies and making their genitals fall off.  “Because this is such a bizarre life cycle for an insect, the fungus has had to change its strategy. So, it basically keeps the host alive long enough to maximize dispersal,”

It is unclear how the fungus would affect other wildlife or humans, but Kasson said in his research, he’s observed thousands of compounds in infected cicadas and some could be toxic……….Yes, it is possible.” But, he said, less than 5% of cicadas are infected with the fungus and researchers have yet to observe any impact on other wildlife.

Nevertheless, 5% of Trillions is still a lot of infected bugs…….

NATO has absolutely zero interest in admitting Ukraine. NATO Wants to Show Support for Ukraine, but Only So Much

Admitting Kyiv is a nonstarter as long as the war with Russia is raging. That has sent NATO searching for some middle ground, something short of membership but meaty enough to show that it is backing Ukraine “for the long haul,”

What Ukraine wants, ultimately, is a formal invitation to join NATO. But alliance officials agree that is not going to happen at the festivities planned for Washington in July. NATO has no appetite for taking on a new member that, because of the alliance’s covenant of collective security, would draw it into the biggest land war in Europe since 1945.

An undercurrent to the urgency is NATO’s desire to “Trump-proof” — as it has been called in recent months — Western support for Ukraine should former President Donald J. Trump be re-elected in November. Mr. Trump has long disdained NATO, deriding its members for not paying a “fair share” of security costs and, in February, suggesting that if a European member of the alliance were attacked by Russia, he would not help defend it if it had not been paying its share.

Russia Is Preparing For A Gasoline Shortage

Russia is seeking to import gasoline from Kazakhstan in case shortages occur on the Russian market because of the diminished refining capacity due to maintenance and damages from Ukrainian drone attacks.

Russia has seen its refining capacity diminished in recent weeks, due to seasonal maintenance, but most of all due to drone attacks from Ukraine, which have damaged several refineries that have shut down for repairs.

Taiwanese Chip-Making Giant TSMC Gets Billions In US Grants, Loans For Third Arizona Chip Factory

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), the world’s largest contract chip maker, plans to build a third chip factory in Arizona after receiving $6.6 billion in grants and $5 billion in loans through US government subsidies. This is part of a massive effort led by the Biden administration to make America’s semiconductor manufacturing industry great again.

“Today, we continue building on that historic progress, with the Department of Commerce announcing a preliminary agreement with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) to support the construction of leading-edge semiconductor manufacturing facilities right here in the United States,” the White House wrote in a press release.

The White House said, “Thanks to this investment, TSMC will also build a third chip factory in Phoenix, increasing its total investment in Arizona to $65 billion and creating over 25,000 direct construction and manufacturing jobs, along with thousands of indirect jobs.”

China’s Police Officers Invited To Patrol NATO Member’s Streets

Chinese police will soon be patrolling streets alongside local counterparts in Hungarian cities, according to a new agreement inked last month by Hungarian Minister of the Interior Sandor Pinter and Chinese Minister for Public Safety Wang Xiaohong. It’s aim is to boosting security in well-trafficked tourist areas, the Ministry of the Interior told Hungarian news portal Telex last week.

This official law enforcement presence follows allegations that China has been operating clandestine “police stations” in dozens of cities worldwide. In a 2022 report, Spain-based human rights organization Safeguard Defenders detailed how this shadowy network, believed to be part of the Chinese Communist Party’s United Front influence apparatus, intimidate and surveil dissidents, asylum-seekers, and ethnic minorities living abroad.
