More than 870 types of military gear seized by Russian forces over the past year are on display
Hundreds of pieces of heavy military equipment seized by Russian troops during the campaign against Ukraine have been put on display as part of a massive open-air exhibition just outside of Moscow. Visitors are able to view both Ukrainian-made weapons and those provided to Kiev by the West.

Videos published in Russian media showed dozens of trophy weapons lined up at the 'Patriot Park' venue located west of the Russian capital. The exhibition is part of the international military and technical forum 'Army-2023'.

The Russian Defense Ministry, which organized the event, said the exhibition includes everything from American M-113 armored personnel carriers and Swedish CV90-40's to French wheeled AMX-10RCR tanks and Australian Bushmaster armored vehicles.

Medical board suspends license of doctor critical of COVID-19 vaccines

ohio medical board
The State Medical Board of Ohio has suspended the license of a doctor who has offered criticism of COVID-19 vaccines.

The board suspended Dr. Sherri Tenpenny's license and fined her $3,000 because she allegedly refused to respond properly to complaints that poured in after she testified to state lawmakers.

The suspension is for an indefinite period.

"In short, Dr. Tenpenny did not simply fail to cooperate with a Board investigation, she refused to cooperate. And that refusal was based on her unsupported and subjective belief regarding the Board's motive for the investigation," Kimberly Lee, a state official, said in the suspension order.

"Licensees of the Board cannot simply refuse to cooperate in investigations because they decide they do not like what they assume is the reason for the investigation," Ms. Lee said.

State law enables the board to discipline medical professionals for "failure to cooperate in an investigation conducted by the board."

Former Virgin Islands Attorney General Denise George revealed in testimony last month that infamous financier Jeffrey Epstein had "political influence over or with the Governor" of the Caribbean territory.

In a July 20 testimony given in the case of Gov US Virgin Islands vJPMorgan Chase, she said, "Because not every sexual offender or any person, you know, are in the position to have the Governor make the request to the Attorney General rather than just coming and making it on their own directly to the Attorney General."

gay netflix cartoon
Netflix released a children's animated movie, Nimoa, In June, which features an LGBT agenda that was so blatant even Disney, which is very well-known for its tendency to promote such viewpoints, dropped Nimona entirely upon previously assuming ownership.

Left-wing magazine Slate is now questioning if things have gone too far, even saying that Nimona appears to assume that having a focus on diversity excuses it from "train[ing] its creative energies on any other area."

As Slate's Sam Adams details, two of the movie's main characters, Ballister Blackheart and Ambrosius Goldenloin, are former gay lovers who can be seen holding hands as well as kissing. The other major character, Nimona, is a shape-shifting magical being that is implicitly some kind of "gender-fluid" creature.

San Francisco retailers continue to abandon the city in droves

san francisco store closing
Remember when San Francisco officials and the media denied that retailers were leaving metro areas? Then they claimed that the businesses leaving were not leaving because of rising crime? Remember when the government tried to institute a law which would allow them to continue taxing people and businesses up to ten years after they moved out of the state? Remember when CNN reporters did a story on the crime epidemic in San Francisco and they got robbed in the process? It's hard to hide the economic consequences of bad policies and ignorant ideology. Eventually, the effects become undeniable.

"Families are invited to create a vessel to trap the demon"

An arts and culture center in Minneapolis has received backlash after it promoted an event encouraging families to attend a "ceremony to summon and befriend" a demon of their choosing.

Yes, really.

Alpha News reports that the Walker Art Center held a pagan ritual geared toward families last weekend, with a performance called "Lilit the Empathic Demon."

Best of the Web: 'Crash coming this year', Big Short investor who called 2008 crisis

The 'Big Short' investor who called the 2008 stock market has made a $1.6bn (£1.3bn) bet on a second crisis by the end of this year.

Michael Burry, the Wall Street trader who predicted America's subprime mortgage crisis in the 2000s, the spark which ignited a global financial meltdown, has made a bet against the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 stock indices, according to filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the American financial regulator.

Mr Burry's firm, Scion Asset Management, has bought $866m in "put options" against a fund that tracks the S&P 500, the American benchmark index. These give investors the right to sell shares at a fixed price in the future and means that he could make a profit if shares fall.

Comment: Whilst it is indeed clear a crash is on the cards - both by looking at economies themselves, as well as moves and meetings in the political sphere - there are also immensely powerful forces engaged in rigging markets - which Burry, and Buffett, may not fully be aware of, or may even be working in league with.

And so when markets do crash, it's possible that these same forces may, yet again, revive these zombie economies with taxpayer bailouts, even if this works only temporarily:

Whenever I talk about the need to dismantle government secrecy I always get some know-it-all empire simp going "Without secrecy we wouldn't be able to wage wars and coordinate against our enemies and have nukes, you idiot."

And it's like, uh, yeah. That's kind of my point. They only use secrecy to do evil things and act against the interests of normal human beings.

The lie is that the government uses secrecy in order to counter its enemies and win wars, when in reality the government uses secrecy to make enemies and start wars.

How do mobilized soldiers feel about the war, their enemy, and civilian life?

Almost a year has passed since partial mobilization was announced in Russia. In September of last year, around 300,000 men were called to the front. Although all of them had previously done their army service, they were ordinary workers, office clerks, managers, and businessmen before being conscripted. A soldier with the military call sign 'Ural', who used to work in the entertainment industry, was one of the first to receive a military summons.

In an interview with RT, he talked about how he and his fellow soldiers accepted the challenge to take up arms, the difference between conscripts from Russia and Ukraine, what happens to someone who switches from a civilian lifestyle to a military one, and what Russian soldiers are fighting for.

Feminist director of mental health says trans kids identifying as 'minotaurs' are part of 'gender revolution'

Diane Ehrensaft claims children can identify as "minotaurs."
A California hospital executive and professor claimed children can identify as a mythology-inspired creature and claimed that this category of children love mermaids, according to a presentation reviewed by Fox News Digital.

Diane Ehrensaft, a self-identified "feminist" who supports a "gender revolution," is the director of mental health and chief psychologist at the UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital gender development center. She is also a professor at UCSF School of Medicine. The developmental and clinical psychologist specializes in pediatric "gender-affirmative care for transgender and gender-expansive patients."

Her biography paged reflected that Ehrensaft focuses her research on how genders before puberty develop as well as the mental health effects of puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones, which are part of chemical sex changes, on children.

Ehrensaft made what some may consider fringe claims about gender ideology, including that kids can identify as "gender hybrids" which include a mythology-inspired creature called a "gender Minotaur," and that kids can change their genders by season and can have different identities depending on their location.
