The world wants no part of Woke, but it's glad we do

China can likely sink any $12 billion American aircraft carrier and its 5,000 diverse "they/them" crew that dares to venture into the Taiwan strait.

The United States obsesses over whether biological men can compete in women's sports as transgendered males.

Crime is spiking at levels not seen in 40 years. But it is considered racist to suggest that arrests, indictments, convictions, and incarcerations deter crime.

Major U.S. downtowns almost overnight went from mostly safe and clean to terrifying and toxic — and we brag that we are at least "tolerant" of the medieval conditions.

The Pentagon and CIA put out recruitment videos that sound like kindergarten diversity, equity, and inclusion programming. Yet the military is less eager to explain why the United States met utter humiliation in Afghanistan or why the army only has met about 50 percent of its scheduled recruitment targets.

'$2 Billion Daily': Potential rail strike threatens weakened economy

A group of freight unions representing 90,000 workers could strike next week, potentially exasperating supply chain issues in an already weakened market.

Strike concerns came to a head in July when President Joe Biden implemented a "cooling off period," which mandated a 60-day delay in striking for negotiations to occur, CNN reported. The mandate runs out Sept 16, and a strike on that day would lead to the immediate stoppage of 40% of all freight lines in the nation unless Congress extends the moratorium.

"The fact is [the railroads] are counting on Congress to act," said Dennis Pierce, president of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen, according to CNN. "We've let [Congress] know we need them to stay out of it."

Part of the president's "cooling off period" also implemented a panel known as a Presidential Emergency Board (PEB), which recommended a compromise contract, according to CNN. The PEB recommended a 14% raise, including back pay for hours worked since 2020, annual bonuses of $1,000 and raises that combine to a 24% pay increase over the next five years.

EU proposes ban on crucial exports from China's Xinjiang over bogus claims of human rights abuses

In a move that could cause new fissures in already fraught trade ties with China, the European Commission is set to propose banning products involving forced labour from being sold in the single market.

But Brussels' pitch next week will adopt a dramatically different approach to the United States in the blocking of such goods, due to concerns about breaching World Trade Organization rules and over appearing to directly target Beijing.

The European Union ban would not be location specific, and would apply to goods made both inside and outside the bloc, according to officials involved in the planning.

Washington, by contrast, has banned all goods from the western Chinese region of Xinjiang, unless importers can prove the products did not involve forced labour. Businesses say that standard is almost impossible to meet.

Comment: As Tweeter Arnaud Bertrand notes below, Xinjiang produces 50% of the world's polysilicon, the base material for solar panels. That said, it's pretty clear that the West has every plan to drive its people into ruin, and depriving them of energy generation in every form possible seems to fulfill that agenda:

Bermuda is on the brink of a constitutional crisis after Britain blocked the Government's flagship legislation to legalise the use and sale of cannabis.

In a landmark move, Rena Lalgie, the Governor, said yesterday she had been "instructed" by the UK's foreign secretary to refuse to give royal assent to the Progressive Labour Party's Cannabis Licensing Bill.

Ms Lalgie previously reserved assent on the legislation in May and called for dialogue between Hamilton and London on the matter.

David Burt, the Premier, said last year that if royal assent was not given to the Bill it would "destroy" relations between Bermuda and Britain.

Comment: Thanks to the multipolar world, maintaining ties with one's overlords is increasingly becoming optional: China to sign a pact with 10 Pacific island nations on matters of security, policing, data and trade

The following interview snippet from the BBC with the Prime Minister of Barbados is rather revealing:

Leaked video suggests Israeli health officials covered up serious safety problems with Pfizer COVID vaccine

A leaked video recording reveals researchers in June shared data with the Israeli Ministry of Health (MOH) showing serious and long-term side effects associated with Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine.

However, the MOH did not disclose the researchers' findings to the expert committee that met later that month to decide on recommending the vaccine for children under age 5, or with leaders of Israel's COVID-19 vaccine booster program.

Additionally, the MOH on Aug. 2 issued a report — on adverse events following the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine from Dec. 9, 2021, to May 31, 2022 — that contradicted the data presented during the early-June meeting.

A majority overall would like to see Biden impeached.

A new Rasmussen poll has found that for the first time a majority of voters want to see Joe Biden impeached. Perhaps the most startling aspect of the survey is that almost a third of Democrats either strongly or somewhat support the notion.

Less than half of Democrats surveyed strongly oppose the idea, with a total of 32 percent expressing support for impeachment.

Anger at plans to roll back Covid vaccines to under-11s in England

© Jeff Spicer/PAThe proportion of children who have been vaccinated against Covid in England has been small.
Children aged 5-11 will no longer be offered Covid jabs, except those in clinical risk groups, UKHSA confirms.

The decision to reduce the number of children who are offered Covid jabs has prompted outcry from parent groups and academics.

The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) said children who had not turned five by the end of last month would not be offered a vaccination, in line with advice published by the UK's Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) in February 2022. UKHSA said the offer of Covid jabs to healthy five to 11-year-olds was always meant to be temporary.

Comment:
Despite the recent spate of news articles revealing the detrimental effects mRNA shots can have on children, the fearful masses are lamenting their inability to inject their kids. It's enough to make you sick.

Authorities in Arizona released security video Friday showing a gunman in tactical gear fire dozens of rounds in a motel parking lot last month in a shooting spree that left two people dead and several injured, including two police officers.

Investigators who processed the aftermath of the Aug. 28 incident north of downtown Phoenix found 200 spent rifle casings, five magazine cartridges, unused flash bangs and a Molotov cocktail, Phoenix Police Sgt. Vincent Cole said in a recorded statement.

Officers responding to the scene found the gunman had died by suicide, Cole said.

Inflation causing hardship for majority in US, Gallup poll reveals

A majority of Americans, 56%, now say price increases are causing financial hardship for their household, up from 49% in January and 45% in November.

The latest reading includes 12% who describe the hardship as severe and 44% as moderate.

The results are based on an Aug. 1-22 web survey that interviewed over 1,500 members of Gallup's probability-based panel.

Although more Americans now than last fall say they are experiencing hardship, the percentage who are suffering severe hardship has held relatively steady at around 10%. Lower-income Americans are more likely than others to be experiencing severe hardship -- 26% of those whose annual household income is less than $48,000 say prices are causing severe hardship for their families. That compares with 12% of middle-income Americans and 4% of upper-income Americans.
