Trump's 'colorblind' job boom continues

'Inclusive' Boom: It may be a surprise, but President Trump is nowhere near as unpopular among minority voters as the biased mainstream media suggest. Why is that? In a word, jobs.

Trump, it turns out, has been the most consequential president in history when it comes to minority employment. In June, for instance, the unemployment rate for Hispanics and Latinos 16 years and older fell to 4.6%, its lowest level ever, from 4.9% in May. The previous all-time low was 4.8%.

African-American unemployment bounced up from its all-time low of 5.9% in May to 6.5% in June. But that 6.5% still represents the second-lowest unemployment reading ever for Black Americans.

'No risk to public' but police shut down Salisbury anyway as man "falls ill" near restaurant where Skripals ate

© iCod/Twitter"Major activity in #Salisbury. Police and search and rescue running into the railway station. Sirens audible for ages. Road shut in city centre , tent being erected here."
A new incident has occurred in the British town of Salisbury that hit the news in relation to the poisoning of a Russian ex-spy and his daughter. A man has passed out in the town center, provoking an emergency response.

UK police have closed a road in Salisbury after a man "in his 30s" had reportedly "fallen ill" right outside the Zizzi restaurant in Wiltshire, where the former Russian double agent Sergei Skripal and his daughter, Yulia, had dined on the day of the chemical attack, in which a nerve agent -dubbed Novichok- was used.

Emergency services have been seen outside the restaurant as police cordoned off the area. The Police have confirmed the incident in a Twitter post but provided no details. The reasons behind it remain unknown.

Comment: If they carry on at this rate, British intelligence and the propaganda pushers will have a field day once flu season arrives.

Proof of blatant misinformation by mainstream media in 2018 Douma chemical weapons attack

Douma Attack
The following post will highlight the differences (misinformation) between what is presented in the official Wikipedia page on the April 7th, 2018 alleged chemical weapons attack in Dhouma, Syria and the official OPCW report (released July 6, 2018) in relation to MSM reporting and evidence at the Wikipedia page on the subject. The alleged attack was reported to the US authorities and mainstream media by the White Helmets who have been exposed as terrorists posing as humanitarian rescuers of small children. Extensive evidence proving the White Helmets are actually linked to al-Nusra Front, Al-Qaeda and ISIS terrorists will be provided at the conclusion of this post.

The following screenshots display what is currently, as of July 9, 2018, at the Wikipedia page on the April 7th, 2018 Dhouma alleged chemical weapons attack. Provided below the page screen shots will be additional extensive evidentiary material that has either been removed from the page previously or not included, thus proving that the page is highly inaccurate when it comes to what actually took place at Dhouma, Syria on April 7, 2018, and is presented by official Wikipedia editors. The additional non-included information brings the entire Wikipedia page and its 'official' sources into question and disrepute.

Link to page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douma_chemical_attack

Comment: As noted, Wikipedia is NOT a reliable source for information and is really just an establishment psyop. See also: Eyewitness in Douma: Syrian Civilians from Ground Zero Expose Chemical Weapons Hoax

Looking East: The West's answer to Liberalism gone mad lies in Russia

Just a few years ago, it would have been exceedingly difficult to imagine Russia serving as a model for not only civil society and common sense, but the very bedrock of conservative beliefs. And therein lays the reason, I suspect, for the West's extreme dislike for this sprawling landmass of 11 times zones: It holds up a large mirror to the ugly face of Liberalism itself.

As Liberals in the West continue to push their radical ideas to the breaking point, dabbling in social engineering projects that border on the insane, Russia has brushed off the ashes of its Soviet past and is restructuring its society along the line of conservative thinking. This chameleon act attests to the Russian peoples' deep-seeded need for normalcy, predictability and a smooth-functioning social and political system above all else. In fact, that largely explains why communism failed here in the first place. The Russian people were able to swallow their pride and admit that the Soviet system was broke and needed replaced.

Texas woman sentenced to 40 years in prison for trying to prostitute her 2 year old daughter

A 25-year-old woman from Texas has been sentenced to 40 years behind bars for attempting to sell her two-year-old daughter for a sex act, for $1,200, to an undercover police officer who impersonated a willing pedophile.

In a carefully devised sting operation targeting child exploitation and abuse, led by Detective Serratt of the Montgomery County Precinct 1 Constable's Office, officers managed to track down and arrest 25-year-old Sarah Peters, who in February this year planned to sell her two-year-old daughter online to someone desiring to "engage in sex acts with the child for a fee of $1,200.00."

Once Peters arranged to pimp out her daughter, she took the child to the drop off point in Conroe, Texas, north of Houston. When she and the toddler arrived at the Greyhound bus station she was immediately arrested by the Internet Crimes Against Children's Task Force and Department of Homeland Security officers.

Comment: This pure evil was stopped by law enforcement, but how many parents - doing the same thing - go unstopped??

Australia will start fining parents every two weeks if they don't vaccinate their children

no jab no pay
Australia's "No Jab, No Pay" policy just got a little stronger, or at least more insistent. Under the previous policy, parents who did not keep their children up to date on vaccinations would miss out on a one-time, end-of-the-year tax benefit called Family Tax Benefit Part A, valued at AU$737. Under the updated policy, those same parents will instead lose AU$28 every two weeks while their child is not up to date.

Australia's Minister for Social Services, Dan Tehan, said in a statement:
Immunization is the safest way to protect children from vaccine-preventable diseases. Parents who don't immunize their children are putting their own kids at risk as well as the children of other people."
The expanded No Jab, No Pay policy went into effect on July 1, 2018.

The American Jews have abandoned Gaza and the Truth

"In our time," wrote George Orwell in 1946, "political speech and writing are largely the defense of the indefensible." British colonialism, the Soviet gulag and America's dropping of an atomic bomb, he argued, "can indeed be defended, but only by arguments which are too brutal for most people to face." So how do people defend the indefensible? Through "euphemism, question-begging and sheer cloudy vagueness." By obscuring the truth.

So it is, more than 70 years later, with Israeli policy toward the Gaza Strip. The truth is too brutal to honestly defend. Why are thousands of Palestinians risking their lives by running toward the Israeli snipers who guard the fence that encloses Gaza? Because Gaza is becoming uninhabitable. That's not hyperbole. The United Nations says that Gaza will be "unlivable" by 2020, maybe sooner.

Hamas bears some of the blame for that: Its refusal to recognize Israel, its decades of terrorist attacks and its authoritarianism have all worsened Gaza's plight. Mahmoud Abbas's Palestinian Authority bears some of the blame too. So does Egypt.

But the actor with the greatest power over Gaza is Israel. Israeli policies are instrumental in denying Gaza's people the water, electricity, education and food they need to live decent lives.

How do kind, respectable, well-meaning American Jews defend this? How do they endorse the strangulation of 2 million human beings? Orwell provided the answer. They do so because Jewish leaders, in both Israel and the United States, encase Israel's actions in a fog of euphemism and lies.

The fog consists, above all, of three words - "withdrew," "security" and "Hamas" - which appear to absolve Israel of responsibility for the horror it oversees.

Comment: Whether Israel lives in such hostile conditions that condone the genocide of another population is a big part of the debate - swayed to its benefit with messaging and persuasion techniques that hamstring (sorry not kosher) the thinking of those who have fealty, or lineage, or sympathy, or religious beliefs concerning Israel. Israel has created 'sides' and American Jews are forced to choose or be ostracized from their American Jewish communities. Those who have the capacity to allow independent thinking without prejudice see a different construct in Israel than is popularly projected.

Trump demands NATO allies to spend more, meanwhile Pentagon buys $1.2K mugs, $10K toilet seats

Toilet seat covers that cost $10,000? Coffee mugs for $1,200 apiece? No wonder NATO countries aren't too keen to follow US military spending benchmarks. Even the Pentagon is looking for better deals and 3D printing for savings.

While President Donald Trump browbeats NATO allies into increasing their military spending, the US Department of Defense is spending untold amounts of taxpayer money on common items it could buy off the shelf or even make in-house, were the military actually allowed to do so.


In one recently reported example, crews of the air tankers and cargo planes based at the Travis Air Force Base in southern California live in dread of dropping the special cups designed to reheat coffee or tea on long flights. The metal cup's fragile plastic handle is prone to breaking, and there are no replacements to be found, requiring the Air Force to spend up to $1,220 for an entirely new mug.

Comment: $10K for a replacement toilet seat lid is a crappy deal.

The world is running out of gold with no substitute, says experts

People responsible for supplying the world with gold are sounding the alarm, saying discoveries of the precious metal are shrinking and there's no reasonable substitute.

Mining companies are no longer finding new deposits of gold to replace their aging mines. South Africa's 140-year-old gold industry - which was once the world's largest - is currently facing a major crisis. The country's mineral council says 75 percent of gold mines are unprofitable or barely making money.

"We were all talking about how production was going to increase every year. I think those days are probably gone," said Nick Holland, CEO of South Africa's largest gold producer Gold Fields.

He was echoed by Rudy Fronk, chairman and CEO of Seabridge Gold, who noted that "Peak gold is the new reality in the gold business with reserves now being mined much faster than they are being replaced."

According to Kevin Dushnisky, president of mining giant Barrick Gold, "Falling grades and production levels, a lack of new discoveries, and extended project development timelines are bullish for the medium and long-term gold price outlook."

Comment: 'Goldzinger!' Run out of nuggets and up goes gold's valuation and prices. Is it truly tapping out?
