A Trudeau government funded outlet published an article claiming that legislation like Alberta’s ‘Bill 29 is based on a widespread myth that transgender women have an inherent biological advantage’ in sports.

The outlet argued that scientific studies which prove that biological men have an advantage are “often methodologically flawed and use limited biological data.” “For example, studies rarely adjust for height and lean body mass and make a false equivalency between testosterone levels and athletic performance despite there being?no consistent evidence?testosterone levels predict performance,” the article continued.

Additionally, the outlet determined that “Anti-trans sport policies are bound to fail because the idea of two sexes, like two genders, is a social construction and not a biological fact.”

Canada is doomed unless The Liberal Party is overwhelmingly defeated in the next election and their WEF sponsored woke policies  removed so that Canadian sovereignty gets restored! What a disgrace the entire Liberal party has become!

Russia’s foreign ministry on Wednesday further said the move “will not go answered”. It warned that it has “sufficient capacity and leverage to retaliate by seizing Western assets under its jurisdiction”.

This is all part of Biden and NATO allies’ efforts to ‘Trump proof’ future aid and support to Ukraine for years to come. Trump is expected to ‘probably’ reduce US defense aid to Ukraine. Trump officials have warned that Kiev would see funding greatly reduced or even pulled if it is unwilling to engage Moscow seriously at the negotiating table.

South Korea continues to be rocked by aftershocks in the wake of President Yoon Suk Yeol’s aborted declaration of marital law. In a trio of jarring new developments, the country’s top two law enforcement officers have been arrested, the former defense chief attempted suicide in detention, and police raided the president’s office — all while a second impeachment vote looms this weekend with greater prospects for success.

“All responsibility for this situation lies solely with me. My subordinates were simply faithful in following my orders and the missions that were given to them. I ask for leniency for them.”  South Korea’s former Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun

Sorry Elon, there is no stopping this train…

We thought last month’s US budget deficit was bad. Boy, were we wrong.

It is only fitting that the twilight days of the Biden admin would exhibit more of the same fakeness that defined not only all of the past four years, but certainly the fakeness of that Kamala Harris presidential campaign which had a billion dollars a month ago and ended up in failure, broke… and millions in debt. We are talking, of course, about the relentless debt-funded spree that somehow became synonymous with economic success in the US.

According to the latest Treasury data released today, in November – the second month of fiscal 2025 – the US spent a massive $584.2 billion, a 14% increase from the prior year, and a record for the month of November. For those who remember out outrage from a month ago, will also remember that the latest deficit number follows what was also a record government outlay for the month of October.

A new study finds nearly a billion people are dealing with a painful and socially traumatizing infection that has no cure. With a new infection happening every single second — translating to 42 million new cases annually. Despite its prevalence, most people experience few or no symptoms, making the virus a “silent” health issue that often goes undetected and unaddressed.

This is the 12th extension of the liability shield for COVID-19 countermeasures since January 2020, when HHS declared a public health emergency under the Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act, or PREP Act.

HHS Secretary Xavier Beccera said the extension is needed because COVID-19 poses a “credible risk” to public health now and in the future. “I have determined that the spread of SARS-CoV-2 or a virus mutating therefrom and the resulting disease COVID-19 constitutes a credible risk of a future public health emergency,” “Development of and stockpiling vaccines, therapeutics, devices, and diagnostics for COVID-19 continues to be needed for U.S. preparedness against the credible threat of a public health emergency due to outbreaks of COVID-19,”

Kim Mack Rosenberg, general counsel for Children’s Health Defense (CHD), called the last-minute move by the Biden administration “very concerning” because it protects industry and the government and “allows for largely unfettered product development.”

We’re all familiar with the AISC metric for PM miners which had me thinking about the same for Bitcoin.

From 2021 but still relevant today.  The True Cost Of Bitcoin

BTC Average Mining Costs  << of course halvings will cause these to rise w/ more (mostly fossil fuel) energy to create the same unit of BTC.

Bitcoin Energy Consumption in tWh

Also BTC won’t stop halving until around 2140 (no one currently living will witness this).  IMO – quite literally a ‘waste of energy’ not to mention having aspects of a Ponzi scheme – success of early adopters dependent on new recruits.

Timely Announcement

https://x.com/BRICSinfo/status/1866920744158126260

The House and Senate Armed Services Committees have released an 1,813-page bill, reconciling their differing National Defense Authorization Act proposals. The House of Representatives could vote this week……..

The House and Senate Armed Services Committees released the new compromise bill on Dec. 7.

It allocates $849.9 billion for programs under the Department of Defense (DOD), another $33.3 billion for defense programs run through the Department of Energy and its Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board, and $512.4 million for defense-related activities.

https://www.zerohedge.com/political/heres-whats-895-billion-defense-authorization-bill

So lets understand this — a bill for almost $1 TRILLION of spending was introduced last SATURDAY and will be voted upon by this coming FRIDAY. It is 1,813 pages long — HOW MANY CONGRESS REPS will be able to read, analyze, digest and understand what they are voting for by then? How much PORK is contained therein?????

The Italian government has scrapped fines on people who refused to get mandatory COVID-19 jabs, it said in a statement late on Monday, after they were introduced to boost vaccinations with the country struggling to curb the pandemic.

“Taking away the fines from those who have not been vaccinated is a way of winking at no-vaccination plotters and deniers,” said Riccardo Magi, a lawmaker from the small +Europa party.

The ‘Werewolf Division’, a group which operated on Telegram, sought to establish an authoritarian regime ‘centered on the Aryan race’, and planned violent attacks on high-ranking officials to achieve this, according to police.

Raids took place across the country targeting the group on Wednesday, with a total of 25 homes searched and cops uncovering Nazi insignia, fascist flags and zombie knives.
