SOTT Focus: NewsReal: USAID DOGE'd: Undertaking Open-Heart Surgery on the US Empire is Risky Business

USAID DOGE Musk NewsReal
© Sott.net
All week long, US government agency USAID's 'charity work' has been laid bare, revealing (to those who've never seen it before) rank corruption at the heart of the US empire. Next week, the Federal Reserve? The Pentagon? Or will this 'line-by-line auditing' of the US government's bloated budget be limited to relatively tame items like small grants for 'trans operas'? If the Trump Avengers are serious about it, there are trillion$ to go!

In the meantime, what will conducting such open-heart surgery on the organs of US empire mean for that empire? For the US homeland? For global economic supply chains? Can it be 'saved'? Will it crash and burn? And the US' relationship with that godforsaken country in the Middle East; is it as cosy and eternal as it seemed when wanted war criminal Netanyahu became Trump's first head-of-state to visit DC last week?

SOTT Focus: NewsReal: Trump's Golden Era Begins: Western Civilization Ends?

Week one of Trump's second term has been a doozy! This week on NewsReal, we look at the good, the bad, and the ugly developments in Trump's 'tornado' of activity. Internationally, with his shocking insistence on returning to "100% tariffs" rather than so-called free trade, and that Denmark "hand over Greenland" to the USA while "Canada has no sovereignty so it may as well become the 51st US state," Trump appears determined to end NATO and return to 19th century 'pre-globalization' trade.

And that would be a good thing, right, given the destructive war-machine NATO has become, and the mad schemes of the internationalist Davos Set? The problem with pulling out one of the pillars of 'international order' and 'cutting loose the vassal states' is that you run the risk of causing great instability, which said internationalists could exploit to maximum effect.

The world awaits the return of Donald Trump as president of the USA. Will the champion of free speech stop the banning of social media app TikTok? Assuming he wants to, can he stop Israel's genocide of Palestinians?

SOTT Focus: SOTT Earth Changes Summary - December 2024: Extreme Weather, Planetary Upheaval, Meteor Fireballs

ecs1224
December closed a year of significant extreme weather events, with an interesting increase since the Solar Cycle 25 peak officially started in October.

To this point, Solar Cycle 25 with its 191.44 confirmed sunspots will break recent records of activity, even the one of 1954-1958 Solar Cycle 19 with 285 sunspots.

Interestingly enough, Solar Cycle 24, was one of the weakest solar cycles in the last century, with a peak sunspot number of 116.4. This is an unusual activity difference and has sparked interest and research within the scientific community. Some hypotheses suggest that this could be part of a longer-term solar cycle variation or an extended solar minimum with a few peaks before a stark decrease.

SOTT Focus: NewsReal: Los Angeles Fires, Pedos in Power, and the 'Conservative Backlash'

Two major brush fires in the Greater Los Angeles Area have turned suburbs into war zones, and current weather conditions mean they could continue burning for another week. Amid reports of arson, looting and incompetence, many are wondering whether this natural disaster was entirely natural.

Meanwhile the British government is still feeling the heat over its handling of the 'grooming gangs' scandal, the French government is trying to silence Candace Owens for digging into the past of France's 'First Lady', and the incoming Trump administration is signalling a whole new direction for the American empire.

Following a decade of 'woke' and other absurdities, are we on the cusp of a 'conservative backlash'?

SOTT Focus: NewsReal: New Year's Day Twin Terror Attacks in New Orleans and Las Vegas: Connecting the Dots

vegas orleans terror newsreal

Pure coincidence that two trucks were rented by two military guys and used to commit terror attacks in two US cities late on New Year's Eve? We think not!

This week on NewsReal, Joe, Niall and guest Adam review the farce of an 'investigation' into the sickening 'crowd-plow' in New Orleans - blamed on 'ISIS' - and the equally nonsensical explanations for why an active-duty Green Beret super-soldier rented a Cybertruck and detonated it outside Trump Hotel on the Las Vegas Strip. If it looks and feels like a psy-op, that's because it probably is! But WHAT message was being sent here, presumably to Trump (and Musk)? And does this twin attack give us any clues about the System's plans in 2025?

Last half-hour: what is Musk up to, bashing the British government and sparking a furor over 'ethnic-specific grooming gangs' in England? Final word on the FOG of information war: the likely reasons for widespread, persistent, 'chemical-smelling' fog currently being observed across North America.

SOTT Focus: Investigative Documentary on Pakistani Child-Rape Gangs in England - "Grooming Gangs: Britain's Shame"

Grooming gangs_1
Britain's grooming gangs scandal is attracting attention. It's happened before, but now it seems different.

I've dedicated most of my career in journalism to covering it. Because it's the most appalling atrocity in modern British history.

In this thread, I'll tell you what I know about the crisis, what I've uncovered, and what is yet to be revealed...

SOTT Focus: The Abandonment of Our Children: How The Pakistani Child-Rape Gangs Were Protected by The British Government

grooming gangs pakistanis
Safeguarding minister Jess Phillips' decision to block a public inquiry into the Oldham grooming gangs seems, from the outside, to be almost inexplicable. Children were raped and abused by gangs of men while the authorities failed to protect them.

A review of the abuse in Oldham was released in 2022, but its terms of reference only stretched from 2011-2014. Survivors from the town said that they wanted a government-led inquiry to cover a longer period, and catch what the previous review had missed. In Jess Phillips's letter to the council, revealed by GB News, she said she understood the strength of feeling in the town, but thought it best for another local review to take place.

This is a scandal that should be rooted out entirely, and investigated by the full might of the British state. Voices ranging from Elon Musk to Kemi Badenoch have joined the calls for an inquiry. Yet the Government seems curiously reluctant to dig into the failings of officials.

This reluctance is not new. Across the country, in towns and in cities, on our streets and in the state institutions designed to protect the most vulnerable members of our society, authorities deliberately turned a blind eye to horrific abuse of largely white children by gangs of men predominantly of Pakistani heritage.

SOTT Focus: Disturbing Questions About the New Orleans and Cyber Truck Attacks

Was it just a coincidence that 2025 started with "ISIS" attacking New Orleans and blowing up a Tesla Cybertruck outside a Trump hotel? The message is clear, but who is sending it?
