France's largest employers' federation on Monday urged companies to "resist the blackmail" over a product boycott by Arab countries as a backlash widens over Paris's hardened stance against radical Islam.

French President Emmanuel Macron has vowed to take the fight to Islamic radicals after the October 16 beheading of a history teacher who had shown cartoons of the Prophet Mohamed to pupils in a class discussion on free speech.

But his comments triggered protests in Muslim-majority countries at the weekend, with people burning pictures of Macron in Syria and setting fire to French flags in the Libyan capital Tripoli.

Emails reveal Biden family lobbied for 'nepotistic' presidential appointments AND received them

After the announcement of Schwerin's appointment to the Commission for the Preservation of America's Heritage Abroad, Owens emailed with Hunter to enquire if it was the same person. Or as she put it: "our Eric."

She followed up by asking how she could secure a position for herself or her mother, Valerie Biden Owens, to which Hunter replied:

"I don't know how much 2016 and nepotism plays into" the selection process.

Hunter Biden then pledged to consult with Joe Biden's Chief of Staff Steve Richetti about a potential appointment for his family members.

Roughly one year later, Valerie Owens was nominated by the Obama-Biden administration to be an Alternate Representative of the United States to the 71st Session of the General Assembly of the United Nations.

The news flies in the face of the idea that Hunter Biden remained separate and apart from his father's work as Vice President - a claim often made by Joe Biden and his campaign.

Owens is the niece of Joe Biden, who, after a brief stint in the Obama White House joined Coca-Cola as a multi-million dollar lobbyist and government relations specialist.

Comment: It's Hillary Clinton all over again. Trust the media, Joe Biden is "not" a crook.

Venezuela announces effective medicine against Covid-19, UK's vaccine will not be ready for Christmas

Authorities said that the drug "has shown 100 percent inhibition of virus replication in vitro."

Venezuela's President Nicolas Maduro Sunday announced the discovery of a high-effective treatment capable of eliminating COVID-19 and pointed out that a drug will be presented to the World Health Organization (WHO) for certification.

The treatment, based on a molecule called TR-10, was designed by the Venezuelan Institute for Scientific Research (IVIC), which had been working on a cure for the past six months.

"this molecule has been tested for COVID-19, all the research has been done. This study lasted 6 months, resulting in 100 percent annihilation of the virus", Maduro said.

Comment: RT reports on the UK health ministers announcement that the vaccine is 'not there yet' - with one death and a number of people who fell ill during the trials, this announcement was predictable. This also means it's highly likely local lockdowns - or worse - will continue through the Christmas holidays:
The British minister of health has rebuffed claims that a UK vaccine could be widely distributed in 2020, adding that his "central expectation" is for roll-out in the first half of 2021.

Speaking on Monday, UK Health Minister Matt Hancock told BBC Radio 4 that he did not anticipate a vaccine to be ready by the end of 2020, dispelling hopes that life could return to normal by Christmas.

"We want to be ready in case everything goes perfectly but it's not my central expectation that we'll be doing that this year, but the programme is progressing well, we're not there yet. "


It already has proven to be far from 'perfect'.


The minister was responding to reports in the Sun that National Health Service (NHS) staff could be vaccinated with the AstraZeneca shot in the coming weeks and that a London NHS trust is preparing to receive stocks of the vaccine from November 2.

When pushed on whether NHS staff could receive the vaccine this year, he said: "I don't rule that out but that is not my central expectation."

The Mail on Sunday also claimed that the government was readying itself for mass roll-out before Christmas.

Hancock claimed that preparing to roll out the vaccine and actually having an approved vaccine ready were two very different things. "I would expect the bulk of the roll out to be in the first half of next year."

As yet, no jab, including the one developed by scientists at the University of Oxford and British pharmaceutical giant AstraZeneca, has been declared safe and effective in Europe or America.

The UK, like many countries, has prior agreements with AstraZeneca, securing access to the vaccine in the event it passes the required trials. The company announced on Monday that their vaccine had generated a strong immune response in elderly trial participants, increasing hopes that the AstraZeneca vaccine will be effective for the most vulnerable.

The world's first Covid-19 vaccine, developed by Moscow's Gamaleya Research Institute of Epidemiology and Microbiology, entered circulation in Russia in September.
Bear in mind, if the UK's aim was to help people through vaccines then both Russia and China have one available. There's also the medication hydroxychloroquine. But this isn't about helping people, this is about a much more nefarious agenda: And check out SOTT radio's:

Yesterday we reported on former VP Joe Biden who snapped at a reporter who dared to ask him about his son Hunter. But VP Biden can't get out of this one.

Biden did not let WYOU reporter Andy Mehalshick get through his question before snapping during an event on Saturday.

"Questions and controversy continue today about Hunter Biden, your son," Mehalshick began.

Comment: Of course the Bidens Sr. would want to quash the situation, consequences to children be damned. He was their principle bagman for all the shady foreign deals Creepy Joe was making.

Putin says American presence in Afghanistan is beneficial to Moscow's interests, rubbishes claims of 'Russian bounties to Taliban'

Moscow has long been supportive of the presence of American troops in Afghanistan as it believes they contribute to the region's stability and ultimately aid Russia's national interests, President Vladimir Putin said on Sunday.

"I'll say it once again: we have no need to fight the American presence [in Afghanistan]," Putin said in an interview aired on the Rossiya-1 TV channel.

The president was responding to a reporter's question about assertions in US media, using anonymous sources, insisting Russia had paid bounties to Taliban militants to kill American soldiers. The interview was recorded for a show called 'Moscow, Kremlin, Putin.'

The New York Times initially published the claim about the 'rewards' - only to eventually admit it has zero evidence to prove its accusations. The Pentagon has repeatedly said it has found no proof of such a practice, it had said it planned to "get to the bottom" of the 'story.'

However, the lack of evidence did not stop some US politicians, including Democratic Party presidential candidate Joe Biden, from reasserting the allegations. He revisited them during his latest - and final - debate with President Donald Trump on Thursday night.

It was "strange" to hear such assertions, Putin said, given that harming US troops in Afghanistan would, in the end, harm Russia's own interests.
We have supported the US presence in Afghanistan from the very outset. We supported the UN Security Council's corresponding resolution.
"The US presence in Afghanistan still contributes ... to stability in that country," the president said, adding that, in this sense, it does not run counter to Russia's own priorities. On the contrary, the withdrawal of American personnel could lead to "many risks," even if it created conditions for an intra-Afghan reconciliation, he opined.

Merkel's CDU party postpone conference to elect leader claiming 'coronavirus surge'

German Chancellor Angela Merkel's CDU party said Monday it would push back a congress planned for early December to elect a new leader due to a surge in coronavirus infections.

The conservative party's top brass will reexamine the situation in mid-December to determine its next steps, general secretary Paul Ziemiak said.

"Going by the current situation, a congress with attendees on December 4th would not be allowed," said Ziemiak.

The CDU was still hoping to hold an in-person congress at a later date rather than a video conference, but acknowledged that the online format might be the only option if the pandemic cannot be brought under control.

Comment: The US is going ahead with its voting for the Presidential election, and Russia was able to proceed with its regional elections, so it's odd that these elections are being postponed. Or could it be that the coronavirus hysteria is simply providing them with a convenient excuse for delaying them?

Trump to 'immediately fire' three top US officials if he wins re-election: Report

Trump you're fired
President Donald Trump will reportedly move to "immediately fire" three top U.S. officials if he wins re-election next month and has additional planned replacements after those three are gone.

The three officials who Trump wants to immediately remove include FBI Director Christopher Wray, CIA Director Gina Haspel, and Defense Secretary Mark Esper, according to Axios. Wray and Haspel are reportedly "despised and distrusted" by the administration, and the president would have already fired both — starting with Wray — if not for politically damaging headlines in the run-up to next month's elections.

"The view of Haspel in the West Wing is that she still sees her job as manipulating people and outcomes, the way she must have when she was working assets in the field," a source told Axios. "It's bred a lot of suspicion of her motives."


Comment: Haspel is as dirty as they come, so this suspicion isn't misplaced.


Fox News host Tucker Carlson reported last month that Haspel was blocking the release of documents critical to understanding the origins of the FBI's counterintelligence investigation into the Trump campaign in 2016. Multiple sources have told The Daily Wire the same thing.

The news comes as Trump signed a new executive order last week that will make it significantly easier for the administration to remove individuals in the federal service who are "constraining him from enacting desired policies or going after perceived enemies," Axios added.

Reddit censors alleged Hunter Biden 'sex tape' shared on video hosting subsidiary of Chinese firm co-founded by Steve Bannon

Social media websites, including Reddit, have taken to censoring the sharing of an alleged Hunter Biden sex tape published on the platform of a Chinese media company connected to Steve Bannon.

Joe Biden's son Hunter has become even more of a focus for critics after an alleged sex tape involving "crack" usage was published on Saturday night.

The video, along with several images, were put out through GTV, a subsidiary of GTV Media Group, which was founded in April of this year by Chinese billionaire Guo Wengui, a fugitive in China for fraud, and Steve Bannon, a former advisor to President Donald Trump.

Comment: Twitterati have also been keeping the video from Chinese billionaire Guo Wengui available, for everyone to form their own opinion. For some strange reason though, Youtube has yet to censor it.

Gateway Pundit has posted a link to the original video on their website. Steve Bannon called it over a year ago:

Steve Bannon: 'Joe Biden is the hand grenade, Hunter Biden is the pin' to blow up the Democratic establishment

All this has the makings of another 'Russigate'; only with 'Chinagate', there's at least some substance to the Bidens' dodgy business ties to Chinese govt figures. Still, the notion that a President Joe Biden would therefore be 'owned' by the CCP is ludicrous.

Twice-failed Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton called most Republicans "cowards" and "spineless enablers" for supporting President Donald Trump, who defeated Clinton during the 2016 presidential election with zero political experience.

According to a report by Axios, Clinton told New York Times Opinion podcast host Kara Swisher on Sunday that "most Republicans are going to want to close the page" and "want to see [Trump] gone as much as we do, but they can't say it publicly."

Most Republicans, Clinton claimed, "have been cowards, spineless enablers" of the president.

Biden says in video he has created 'voter fraud organization'

Democratic nominee Joe Biden said his team has created "the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics" in a recent video.

"We have put together, I think, the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics," Biden said in the video.

Republicans were quick to point out his misspoken claim.

Comment: From RT:
...


While Democrats and much of the mainstream media have brushed off concerns over potential voter and election fraud in a year when mail-in voting will be used on a far larger scale than usual, Trump has repeatedly taken aim at universal mail-in voting, deeming it highly vulnerable to abuse and errors. The president even went as far as to allege that the system could tip the scales in the 2020 election - a notion that the Democrats have vehemently rejected.

Biden's blunder provided comic relief for conservatives on Twitter, many portraying the lapse as a "Freudian slip."



"Seems that Joe Biden has some explaining to do," Mike Kelly, Republican representative for Pennsylvania's 16th congressional district, tweeted.
