Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe on Monday said law enforcement should take an upcoming right-wing rally, which is being planned to support jailed Jan. 6 rioters, "very seriously."

McCabe, a CNN contributor, said during an appearance on the network's Erin Burnett OutFront:
"I think they should take it very seriously. In fact, they should take it more seriously than they took the same sort of intelligence that they likely saw on January 5."
The "Justice for J6" rally — planned by Look Ahead America, a nonprofit founded and led by former Trump campaign staffer Matt Braynard — is scheduled to take place on Sept. 18 in Washington, D.C., in support of rioters who have been charged in connection to the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.

The rally is scheduled for a Saturday, when the House will still be on recess, so a smaller number of lawmakers and staff will be around compared to the Jan. 6 riot.

Comment: McCabe is helping create an atmosphere of tension and reaction to preface the event. Will this be a case of history repeats?

Senator Lindsey Graham
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) predicted an eventual return to Afghanistan as well as for the country to become a hotbed for Islamic terrorism yet again under Taliban rule. In a BBC interview, the South Carolina senator said the Taliban has not reformed over the past 20 years and will not ensure stability and security in Afghanistan.

Graham stressed al Qaeda and other terror groups would likely reestablish presence in Afghanistan. He stated out of all recent U.S. leaders, only President Trump was able to reduce the terror threat.
"He destroyed the Caliphate. It rose on Obama and Biden's watch and Trump sent the military in to destroy it...ISIS will come after the Taliban large and the entire country is going to fracture in the next year, creating a perfect storm for western interest to become attacked."

Comment: 'A perfect storm for western interest to become attacked'...or, more likely, another opportunity for the West to capitalize on the rape and pillage of Afghanistan. Taking bets.

Pfizer creating COVID pills taken daily + vaccine

mandatory vaccination
Pfizer is now looking to come out with a pill you take daily in addition to your vaccine for COVID. Clearly, this virus has been so exploited it is amazing. At least Europe tracks the death from their vaccines and those injured. So, what is the objective here? The vaccines do not work so we now also take pills?

If Bill Gates gets just $1 from every shot and pill, he is on his way to becoming not just the richest man now, but the richest man in 6,000 years of recorded history. He will indeed become the global czar of health without ever having to go to medical school. Doctors bow to kiss his feet and listen to every word he says for obviously, he knows more about health and viruses than anyone else on the planet ever in all recorded history.

Top government health officials are warning the White House to scale back a plan to offer coronavirus booster shots beginning Sept. 20, contending that regulators need more time to collect and review necessary data for a third dose, sources confirm to Axios.

Why it matters: Officials are now weighing whether the plan will have to be modified as the Delta variant makes up for the majority of COVID-19 cases in U.S. and hospitals fill up with coronavirus patients, the New York Times reports.

The escalation of hostilities in Yemen is a fact, as Ansar Allah are attempting to capture Marib city once again.

On September 5th, the Houthis (as Ansar Allah are known) claimed they had attacked several targets in eastern, western and southern Saudi Arabia as part of a large-scale operation.

A total of 16 missiles and drones were launched during the course of the operation.

Specifically, eight Samad-3 suicide drones and a Zulfiqar ballistic missile targeted vital facilities of oil giant Aramco at Ras Tanura, Saudi Arabia's main oil port on the Persian Gulf, in the Eastern province.

Screenshot: Army soldiers stand at a checkpoint a day after the putsch that led to the toppling of President Alpha Conde in Conakry, Guinea on September 6, 2021.
The colonel behind a putsch in Guinea promised investors on Monday that business deals would not be affected by the country's latest coup and vowed to form a "government of national union" to oversee a political transition.

In a speech the day after his men arrested the 83-year-old president, opening a new chapter in Guinea's long history of turmoil, Colonel Mamady Doumbouya also declared there would be no "witch hunt" against members of the former government.

Doumbouya, with an eye to the mining industry that is the backbone of the economy, said "activities in the country are continuing as normal."

Comment: The real intentions and allegiances of those involved in the coup will likely become clearer in the coming weeks; as just one example, who stands to gain from these business deals will be informative:

How (and why) Israel changed what "fully vaccinated" means

israel
Israel has been at the forefront of the vaccination push ever since November 2020, when they signed agreements with Pfizer to run what were essentially medical experiments on their civilian population.

They were the first country to roll out the Pfizer vaccine. They were the first country to try out the (since abandoned) "Green passes" system of medical segregation. And now they're the first country to change the terms of the "get vaccinated and get your freedom back" contract.

That's right. Just as "three weeks to flatten the curve" turned into around 18-months (and counting), "double jabbed" is now evolving into "triple jabbed".

Comment: Throughout this whole coronavirus disaster, language has been used to control the masses by promoting fear and panic, sowing discord, and enforcing obedience. To find out more, see below:

British govt plans October 'firebreak' lockdown, blames pressure on NHS and rising cases

The Government has drawn up plans for an October "firebreak" Covid lockdown should hospitalisations continue at their current level and threaten to overload the NHS, a senior Government scientist has told i.

The member of the Government's Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (Sage) said the UK is about to enter "an extended peak" of infections and hospitalisations, which are in danger of pushing the NHS beyond breaking point and could force the Government to re-introduce restrictions over the school half term period at the end of next month.

A full lockdown is unlikely and would be a last resort, but there are a range of measures the government could introduce.

Comment: If Britain's ponerized politicians are brazen enough to chance another lockdown, we can expect to see other countries taking part in the sinister agenda to act in lockstep anytime soon: Also check out SOTT radio's:

Nord Stream 2 to be completed in few days, America's efforts to stop it failed - Russian foreign minister

Construction on the controversial Nord Stream 2 natural gas pipeline took a major step to completion Monday.

According to the company, the final piece of piping has been welded together. It will then be lowered into place in the Baltic Sea. It must then be connected and will then be expected to begin operating.

Russia's state-owned energy company Gazprom said once the project has been completed the pipeline will begin supplying Germany in October. The €10 billion ($12 billion) project is expected to double the carrying capacity to Germany.

The construction of the pipeline has been dogged by delays and should have been completed by December 2019.

Comment: RT reports:
American efforts to stop Nord Stream 2 have failed & gas pipeline will be completed in next few days - Russian foreign minister

Years of economic sanctions and political efforts from Washington have come to nothing, and work on the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline is now nearing the final stages of completion, Russia's Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has said.

Speaking at a meeting in St. Petersburg on Monday, the veteran diplomat announced that final preparations are being made on the underwater link, which will connect the gas fields of Siberia to consumers in Western Europe. "It will be completed in a few days and will begin working," he said.

According to him, efforts by the US government to sink the pipeline now have no chance of success, despite the introduction of new sanctions in recent days. "There is still a full-frontal attack, in spite of everything, on Nord Stream 2," he said, despite the fact "everyone knows the Americans have realized [it will be completed.]"

Lavrov's comments came as Russia's state energy firm Gazprom announced that the final pipe of Nord Stream 2's second string was being welded into place. "The next step will be to connect the section of the gas pipeline from the coast of Germany," the company behind the project stated.

Last month, US President Joe Biden signed into force a new package of sanctions aimed at companies involved in the construction. In a letter sent to Congress, the White House said that "certain Russian energy pipeline projects" would expand Russia's influence in the region and weaken "Ukraine and Eastern flank NATO and EU countries," thereby threatening "the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States."

The news came as German Chancellor Angela Merkel arrived in Moscow to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Both countries have continued to back the scheme despite opposition from the US, and Biden had previously acknowledged that work on the gas link was at an advanced stage. Shortly after taking office, he said that "to go ahead and impose sanctions now, I think is counterproductive in terms of our European relations."

The month before, American and German officials reached a deal to allow the construction to go ahead in exchange for commitments from Berlin to support sanctions against Moscow if it shows "aggression" toward Ukraine. Kiev has warned that it could stand to lose billions of dollars in gas transit fees each year if Moscow turns off the taps on its Soviet-built overland network of pipelines after the completion of Nord Stream 2.

Germany's ambassador to China, Jan Hecker, has died suddenly at the age of 54, less than two weeks into his Beijing posting.

Hecker was a former foreign policy adviser to the German chancellor, Angela Merkel.

"We are deeply saddened and shocked to learn of the sudden death of the German ambassador to China," a statement on the embassy's website said. "Our hearts are with his family and his friends and colleagues at this time."

A cause of death has not been given. Hecker began his posting in Beijing on 24 August, having arrived earlier that month with his wife and three children, according to German media. Frank Rückert, Hecker's deputy, would take over his duties for the time being, Deutsche Welle reported.

Comment: It remains to be seen just what the cause of death was, but judging from the information provided, as well as ambassador Hecker's recent posting to China, it would appear that he was in overall good health and his death was unexpected.
