Trump Breaks Silence on Alexei Navalny’s Death by John Symank

February 19, 2024 – On Monday, former President Donald Trump issued his first comment on the death of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny, comparing the lawyer’s death to his legal problems and saying it made him “more aware” of what is happening in America.

Trump was quiet on Navalny’s passing over the weekend, after he died under mysterious circumstances in a remote Russian prison. President Joe Biden has blamed the death on Russian President Vladimir Putin.

However, on Monday, Trump issued remarks on Truth Social. He did not mention Putin by name, instead issuing complaints about prosecutors, judges and Democrats conspiring against him, just days after he was ordered to pay $354 million as part of a civil fraud trial decision.

“The sudden death of Alexei Navalny has made me more and more aware of what is happening in our Country,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “It is a slow, steady progression, with CROOKED, Radical Left Politicians, Prosecutors, and Judges leading us down a path to destruction. Open Borders, Rigged Elections, and Grossly Unfair Courtroom Decisions are DESTROYING AMERICA. WE ARE A NATION IN DECLINE, A FAILING NATION!”

Trump, the leading candidate in the GOP presidential primary, has previously held relatively good relations with Putin, and has expressed a desire to have a closer relationship with Russia. Democrats have been highly critical of his rhetoric, and some Republicans have accused him of cozying up with dictators.

The Lankford-McConnell Immigration Bill Provided $7 Billion to Keep the Border Open and the Human Pipeline into the US Cranking Away By Jim Hoft

Feb. 19, 2024 9:00 am – The James Lankford-Mitch McConnell immigration bill provided $7 billion to keep the border open and the human pipeline cranking away.

These same people won’t vote to fund a border wall – But they will vote to send $7 billion to NGOs to keep the the border open to illegal aliens.

Steve Bannon added this: “McConnell/Lankford Bill Provided $7 Billion for NG0s and Local Governments to Process Illegal Aliens Faster.”

This bill was supported by several Republicans.

They need to be turfed out of office

The Center for Immigration Studies reported:

The Senate bill included appropriations of huge sums of money — nearly $7 billion — to support a continuation of the Biden administration’s disastrous policies facilitating illegal migration with taxpayer funds.

The beneficiaries of this congressional largesse would be the contractors, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and state and local agencies that provide housing, transportation, medical care, and other services to the migrants, and even foreign governments. This funding would enable the migration machine to keep humming, and greatly assuage the complaints of the state and local governments in places like New York, Massachusetts, Illinois, Maine, Colorado, and other places that have given a warm welcome to the migrants (at least at first), and who seem to be fine with the situation, as long as the federal government covers most of the cost.

The following provisions were in the Senate bill, and could potentially be reprised in the next spending bills, which Congress eventually will have to pass to fund the government in 2024.

$2.334 billion, available until 2025 to the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to distribute to state governments and NGOs for “refugee and entrant assistance programs”, such as youth and family services, housing, medical care, and legal counseling (p. 32 of the bill).
$36 million for the Department of Justice (DOJ) to fund lawyers for “certain incompetent adults” in immigration proceedings. The bill also would have authorized taxpayer-funded counsel for unaccompanied illegal alien minors, but no amount was specified for that program. (p. 62 and p 338).
$1.4 billion from the budget for Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to be transferred to the Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA) Shelter and Services Program, to be awarded to NGOs for providing shelter and other services to illegal migrants. Of this total, $933,333,333 million would be available immediately. An additional $350,000 could be spent if ICE is able to acquire detention capacity for 46,500 aliens and if DHS hires 200 CBP officers, 200 deportation officers, and 800 asylum officers. An additional $116 million could be spend if ICE conducts 1,500 removal flights and if 75 percent of Border Patrol officers are trained on asylum claims. (p. 67 and p. 82).
$350 million to HHS to award grants and contracts to NGOs or state and local government agencies for additional “Refugee and Entrant Assistance” services to unaccompanied minors. (p. 84).
$850 million to the State Department for “International Disaster Assistance”, to spend on unspecified “humanitarian needs in the Western Hemisphere”. Typically, much of this money is re-distributed to NGOs and contractors who apply for the funds in competitive and non-competitive programs (p. 85).
$415 million to the State Department, available until 2026, to be paid to foreign governments. Of the total, $230 million is to increase the ability of grantee countries to “accept and integrate deportees”. Another $185 million is awarded to countries in the Western Hemisphere to reduce illegal migration. (p. 85).
$1.287 billion to ICE to pay contractors to administer a greatly enlarged Alternatives to Detention Program (ATD) to lightly monitor illegal migrants who have been caught and released. For more on this provision, see here.
The bill would have allowed international or American NGOs, or other agencies, to become approved fingerprint collection contractors, apparently in addition to the current contractor, Amentum, which specializes in security-oriented contracts with U.S. military and intelligence agencies, among other government business. (p. 275).

SHOCK VIDEO: Huge Line of Illegals “As Far as the Eye Can See” Traverse Down Steep, Rocky Mountain After Crossing Into San Diego [VIDEOS] By Cristina Laila

Feb. 19, 2024 6:00 pm – Joe Biden’s America.

A huge line of illegal aliens traversed down a steep, rocky mountain after illegally crossing into Jacumba, California on Monday.

Hundreds of thousands of illegal migrants from all over the world are traveling through the Darien Gap en route to the United States every month.

Illegals from Africa, the Middle East, Asia, and South and Central America are making the trek to the United States.

Jacumba, which is about 75 miles east of San Diego, has been a hangout for thousands of illegals after crossing the border. The high desert has been a drop-off location for smugglers for illegals to live in makeshift camps.

The group Border Kindness, which is a non-governmental organization that helps provide resources for illegals, has provided food and water in areas where terrain is difficult to traverse in the San Diego mountains.

A large group of illegals crossed through the open gaps on the border wall in Jacumba and traversed down the rocky mountain.

The line of invaders goes up the mountain “as far as the eye can see.”

“There is currently a huge line of illegal immigrants coming down a steep, rocky mountain after crossing into Jacumba, CA. The line appears to go up the mountain as far as the eye can see. Three men made it down already and told us they’re from Kazakhstan,” Fox News reporter Bill Melugin said.

DUTCH CULTURAL ENRICHMENT: Eritrean Migrant Gangs Cause Major Riot, Burn Police Cars – Geert Wilders: ‘I’ll Become the Prime Minister Who Finally Puts Things in Order’ By Paul Serran

Feb. 19, 2024 1:40 pm – Unchecked mass migration is the scourge of all Western developed nations, and the Netherlands is by no means an exception.

While the political elite is paralyzed, negotiating for months the formation of the new cabinet expected to be led by Geert Wilders, the country is still bound to the same failed Globalist policies imposed by Brussels bureaucracy.

While the migrants cause a whole host of problems for the Dutch economy and cohesion of its social fabric, in some aspects, the security problem is becoming the worst of them.

The rioting that broke out between two rival groups of Eritreans in the Netherlands a couple of days ago is a perfect example.

Police officers had to resort to tear gas to tackle the unrest in The Hague. Migrants torched police cars and a bus.

Biden’s War on Domestic Energy Intensifies by Matt Egan & Brent Bennett

Feb. 19, 2024 5:00 pm – On Jan. 26, President Joe Biden took an aggressive step forward in his war on American energy by halting the permitting of new liquified natural gas (LNG) export terminals. This action has massive global implications, as TPPF’s Mark Mills laid out when the decision was publicly announced.

It also has the added benefit for the president of attacking primarily Texas and Louisiana, red states that account for the bulk of U.S. LNG exports. This decision comes on the heels of Texas taking steps to secure its border with Mexico, putting the state directly at odds with the administration—once again.

But the president’s politically motivated actions will reverberate far beyond America’s natural gas producing regions. By locking global supply and demand imbalances in place for longer, this decision will send billions of dollars to foreign producers and raise the cost of energy globally. Any short-term drop in domestic prices will ultimately be negated by reductions in future domestic production.

If this decision doesn’t help Americans and hurts our allies, why do it? Politics, of course, primarily appeasing the radical green cartel that forms a key part of the president’s base, and, perhaps to the surprise of a casual observer, rent-seeking industries looking to hoard short-term supply.

President Biden’s environmental extremism means our allies will become more reliant on our adversaries. For context, 87% of US LNG exports went primarily to U.S. allies in Europe and Asia. The Biden administration blunting America’s ability to participate on the world energy stage creates a vacuum that will undoubtedly be filled by the other major natural gas exporting countries—Russia, Qatar, and Iran—who are certainly not friends of the U.S.

Four Illegal Aliens Arrested, Charged with Strangling, Robbing Chicago Man on Train By Cristina Laila

Feb. 19, 2024 4:00 pm – Joe Biden’s America.

Four illegal aliens living in a migrant shelter in Chicago were arrested and charged for robbing and strangling a man on the Pink Line on Saturday.

According to police, the four illegals identified as Fernando Loyo-Rodriguez, 22, Wilker Gutierrez Sierra, 21, Carlos Carreno-Carreno, 20, and 18-year-old Yonnier Guasamucare Garcia, attacked and robbed a 48-year-old passenger near the Kostner station Saturday afternoon.

Excerpt from CWB:

Four men who live at a migrant shelter in downtown Chicago have been charged with robbing and strangling a passenger on the Pink Line, officials say.

The foursome attacked and robbed the 48-year-old man while riding a train near the Kostner station around 4:45 p.m. on Saturday, a CPD news release said. Chicago cops swooped in and arrested the suspects about 45 minutes later at the Pulaski station.

CPD identified the men as Fernando Loyo-Rodriguez, 22, Wilker Gutierrez Sierra, 21, Carlos Carreno-Carreno, 20, and 18-year-old Yonnier Guasamucare Garcia. They all list home addresses in the 300 block of South Plymouth, home to the Standard Club migrant shelter.

Prosecutors charged each man with robbery and aggravated battery by strangulation.

More than 11 million illegal aliens – mainly military-age men from Africa, Latin America, China and the Middle East have invaded the US on Joe Biden’s open border invitation.

Venezuela is emptying its prisons and sending their most hardened criminals and dangerous gang members to the United States.

Terrorists, MS-13 gang members and murderers are invading the US and unleashing hell on American citizens thanks to Joe Biden.

A little truth… TIERNEY’S REAL NEWS

FEB 19, 2024 – There is way too much fake news floating around right now and way too much real news being hidden. People are buying into several different CIA ops and the trolls are out hot and heavy…so on this President’s Day here are a few of the most accurate posts I found to demonstrate the truth behind the lies they are pedaling. Hugs!

Putin didn’t kill his so-called rival Navalny – the CIA did. He was likely a CIA operative like Epstein and had to be taken out.

The Truth is Coming Out Brownstone Institute

February 19, 2024 – These are tough times for the “great reset.” The broad and global EV market is failing, mRNA shots are in disrepute, the reality of surveillance and censorship is getting media attention, and public anger at the whole of the wild push to wreck freedom and rights is rising quickly all over the world.

The more time has passed since lockdowns, the more clear it becomes that this was part of a much larger agenda. But here’s the problem. They are not giving up, not even close. The reason there have been no apologies is that they are not sorry. They are more determined than ever.

The one path of resistance is the creation of new information infrastructures such as Brownstone Institute. It’s our hope to shine a light on truth, protect the rights of serious research and commentary, and use every freedom we have left to highlight genuine science, logic, and enlightenment ideals.

In passing, our supper clubs are now selling out completely. This has to be a good sign!

We deeply appreciate your support. Given the odds, we certainly need it!

Here is some content since our last email:

Pfizer Never Stops Gaslighting Us By Lori Weintz. Pfizer’s cheery Super Bowl ad cannot change the fact that they never tested their BNT162b2 vaccine during clinical trials to see if it prevented transmission of Covid-19. Nor did Pfizer stop distribution when 90 days into the vaccination campaign, there had already been 1,123 vaccine-related deaths, and over 40,000 vaccine injuries.

Florida Still Stands Alone By Steve Templeton. Florida might be the only state investigating the truth about the US Covid response, but it’s still important that these efforts continue. The actions of the grand jury, the integrity committee, the surgeon general, and the governor might provide only a spotlight on the systemic problems and corruption of US public agencies. But it’s a necessary one. Even if people of all political persuasions don’t want to hear the truth, and try to bury it, throw it into a volcano, or shoot it into the sun, it’s still the truth, waiting for a chance to be seen, heard, spoken, and believed once again.

‘Experts’ Continue to Spread Misinformation By Ian Miller. Their proposed changes center around very basic guidance on isolation due to a Covid infection. You’d think that a very mild alteration to a policy so small would be widely celebrated, considering most members of the general public have long since abandoned isolation guidelines anyway. But that assumption rests on a misguided understanding of how committed Covid extremists are to pushing endless panic. And some of those extremists happen to work at the New York Times.

France’s “Pfizer Amendment” Could Turn mRNA Critics into Criminals By Sonia Elijah. On Wednesday, February 14th a highly controversial law was pushed through the National Assembly in France, potentially turning a critic of mRNA treatment into a criminal. The draconian law, which was quietly passed with virtually no debate, could throw anyone who advises against the use of therapeutic or prophylactic treatment (including experimental mRNA gene therapy) into prison for up to 3 years and pay a hefty fine of 45,000 euros.

The Covid Resistance Deserves the Nobel Peace Prize By Ramesh Thakur. It’s hard to see the Norwegian Nobel Committee defying the suffocating Covid narrative that took over the Western world, with a very few honourable exceptions. Of course if they were to do so, that would really stir things up and help to dismantle the narrative. One can but hope for the best while expecting otherwise.

The Wuhan Cover-Up by RFK, Jr.: Review and Analysis By Debbie Lerman. The Wuhan Cover-Up does a better job than any other book or article I have read at exposing the trends, forces, and institutions that brought us the Covid catastrophe – with hundreds of pages of notes and references. What’s frightening is that the enormity of the problem is beyond the scope of the book, not just to solve, but even to fully acknowledge.

The Great Reset Didn’t Work: The Case of EVs By Jeffrey Tucker. It turns out that the entire bit, including the fake prosperity of the lockdown economy, made possible by money printing and grotesque levels of government spending, was unsustainable. Even sophisticated car companies bought into the nonsense. Now they are paying a very heavy price. The new market depended on a panic of buying that turned out to be temporary.

Authority Isn’t What It Used to Be By Bert Olivier. My final rejection of ‘mainstream’ claims to authority happened during the Covid debacle. Whether a new, revitalised sense of legitimate authority could eventually be generated in the place of the spurious claims to authority on the part of those representatives of the supposed ‘New World Order’ who still wield power, only time will tell.

Rational Policy Over Panic By REPPARE. In view of their influence, international health agencies have a particular responsibility to ensure their policies are well-grounded in data and objective analysis. Moreover, governments have a responsibility to take the time, and effort, to ensure that their populations are well-served. It is hoped that the evaluation in the REPPARE report Rational Policy Over Panic presented with this article will contribute to this effort.

New Media Sues the State Department Over Censorship By Robert Malone. According to a new lawsuit filed in December on behalf of two media organizations, those being The Daily Wire and The Federalist, as well as the State of Texas and AG Ken Paxton versus the US Department of State (the State Department) through its Global Engagement Center (GEC) and various US government officials, it is alleged that the defendants are actively intervening in the news media market to both censor and limit the circulation of disfavored press outlets.

Gears of the Refugee Machine By Spike Hampson. In short, Americans (indeed, the entire world) now realize that the Biden administration is dedicated to getting as many illegal aliens into the country as possible. This is, of course, aiding and abetting illegal behavior, but rampant corruption in the media, academia, and politics ignores or dismisses it.

Conspiracy Theory Debunker Finds Real Conspiracies By Doran Howitt. The 2023 book Misbelief by Dan Ariely belongs to a genre I would label “debunking Covid conspiracy theories.” The book is meant to explore the thought process of people who subscribe to conspiracy theories, especially about Covid and the Covid vaccines. Thus I was surprised to encounter in the book two stories in which the author uncovered real conspiracies to hide information about Covid from the public.

Trump’s Covid Response Casts a Long Shadow By Thomas Buckley. Neither candidate has any reason to bring up the issue of the pandemic response. The situation is somewhat akin to the Mutually Assured Destruction doctrine of the Cold War – we won’t push the button if you don’t push the button and neither of us should push the button because we’re both going to die if we do.

Foxes and Hedgehogs By Julie Ponesse. The philosopher Isaiah Berlin starts his 1953 essay, “The Hedgehog and the Fox,” with this perplexing proverb attributed to the Greek poet Archilochus. Berlin goes on to explain that there are two types of thinkers: hedgehogs, who see the world through the lens of a “single central vision,” and foxes, who pursue many different ideas, seizing upon a variety of experiences and explanations simultaneously.

Political Shrinkflation By El Gato Malo. And his ruinous speech/diatribe defending himself that came off more like “old man yells at clouds” than “elder statesman,” Senor Biden is taking big hits left and right. And the knives are fully out for him and in plain view. No one is hiding anymore.

Intellectuals for Sale By Jeffrey Tucker. We’ve lived through this and seen too much to have the same level of trust we once had. What can we do? We can rebuild the ideal as it existed in the old world. The kind of genius we know was on display in a place like Salamanca, or in interwar Vienna, or even in the coffee houses of London in the 18th century, can return, even if on a small level. They have to, simply because the shape of the world around us depends fundamentally on the ideas we hold about ourselves and the world around us. Those should not be for sale to the highest bidder.

Another Variant, Another Desperate Cry for Masks By Ian Miller. Those who were responsible for incalculable damage will continue to skate scot free, while the cycle of unnecessary panic, inaccurate predictions, and the call for more masking rears its ugly head every few months as new variants emerge. Although it’s frustratingly predictable and infuriatingly obvious, best to prepare for a whole lot more of it.

Hamas: Palestinian Civilians Are Also Terrorists by Khaled Abu Toameh
February 19, 2024 at 5:00 am

When Hamas decided to drag the entire population of the Gaza Strip into another war with Israel on October 7, it did not care what would happen to Palestinian civilians.
If the hostages were indeed held in an apartment of a Palestinian family, this shows that Hamas has no problem placing Palestinian civilians in harm’s way.
Consequently, Hamas has no right to complain about the death of civilians in the war it initiated against Israel while it uses its own people to hold innocent kidnapped Israelis.
Hamas leaders leading lavish lives in Qatar and Lebanon do not care about the two million Palestinians of the Gaza Strip, nor do the leaders of the terrorist organization who are hiding in the vast network of sophisticated tunnels in the Gaza Strip. All they care about is their own survival
“The humanitarian aid is being stolen by those who call themselves resistance fighters. They claim they are defending us, but they are stealing all the aid coming into the Gaza Strip and then they sell it to the people for a very high price.” — Palestinian man in Gaza, X (twitter.com), February 16, 2024.
On February 15, sources in the Gaza Strip reported that Hamas terrorists killed Ahmed Abu al-Arja, a Palestinian boy, while he was trying to get food for his family.
[T]he participation of some Palestinian civilians in the October 7 massacre and the kidnapping of Israelis is extremely worrying: it illustrates that a large number of people in the Gaza Strip actually do support Hamas and its terrorism against Israel.

United States Sees LARGEST Population Increase in History in 2023 – Thanks to Joe Biden’s Open Borders By Jim Hoft

Feb. 18, 2024 4:20 pm – The United States saw its LARGEST population increase in its 247 year history in 2023 thanks to Joe Biden’s open borders.

The US saw an increase of 3.8 million people in 2023 exceeding any previous year in population growth.

You can thank Joe Biden and his open borders for this historic number.

Kanekoa the Great reported:

The United States has just undergone its most substantial one-year population increase in history, with growth exceeding 3.8 million people in 2023, primarily attributed to illegal immigration, according to a recent report by John Burns Research and Consulting.

Under President Biden’s leadership, over 8 million people have entered the country illegally.

On Biden’s inaugural day, he signed executive orders that incentivize illegal immigration:

• Paused Deportations
• Suspended “Remain in Mexico”
• Stopped Border Wall Construction

As the nation grapples with the rising costs linked to illegal immigration, major cities are making budget cuts to essential services such as fire, police, sanitation, libraries, and education.

Despite facing these domestic challenges, President Biden and Washington D.C. politicians are advocating for allocating an additional hundred billion dollars to protect foreign borders from distant invasions.

The John Burns Research and Consulting Company recently released this report:

Population growth will rise to 1.8 million annually.
We expect the US population will increase by over 1.8 million annually through 2033, 400K more per year than recent Census projections.

We believe future immigration will resemble 2014–2017 more than the lower levels of 2019–2021 caused by the pandemic and restrictive government policies.

Immigration is key to driving population growth when births are falling, and deaths are rising.
Net immigration will account for 67% of population growth in the next 10 years, a significant jump from 54% since 2013.

A tight job market will attract foreign workers. Low unemployment rates and a slower-growing working-age population will draw more foreign workers into the US.

Lower fertility rates and an aging population will narrow the gap between births and deaths, reducing the contribution of natural population change.

Biden Border Crisis: Military-Age Syrian Men Illegally Cross Into San Diego (VIDEO) By David Greyson

Feb. 18, 2024 9:40 pm – Joe Biden’s America.

Three Syrian men were encountered by Griff Jenkins of Fox News at the southern border. The invasion of illegals has spiked in Jacumba (east San Diego County) since Texas has locked up the border.

“Where are you from?” Griff Jenkins asked.

“From Syria,” the illegal said.

“Why are you coming to the US?” Jenkins continued.

“Cause we love America, and we need a nice life,” the illegal replied.

“Come here for jobs?” Jenkins asked.

“Ya, a nice job,” the illegal responded.

Venezuela Gangs in the Chicago Suburbs? By Terry Newsome – @terrynewsome357 and Paul Drabik @iampauldrabik

February 18, 2024 – In December of 2023, parental activist and host of the podcast Behind Enemy Lines, Terry Newsome, reported on migrant buses arriving to drop off illegals at suburban Chicago train stations. In Newsome’s reporting, he has uncovered evidence of possible Venezuelan gang members arriving in the suburbs and city of Chicago. Previously, bus routes were direct to Chicago. However, radical leftist Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson directed Chicago law enforcement to pull over these buses and either ticket or impound the buses delivering illegals to the city. This act of overt political posturing was a signal by Johnson, admittedly, to call attention to Governor Abbott of Texas and his continuous export of illegals to sanctuary states and cities. The implication is that Abbott is the perpetrator of an inhumane project directed at overloading these states and cities with illegals.

The reality, however, is that Johnson has used women and children as political pawns during the coldest months of the year in the Chicago land area. Temperatures in January 2024 had reached as low as 20 below zero. Illegals by the hundreds were delivered to train stations across the suburbs in the frigid January temperatures. Effectively, Johnson created a logistical catastrophe that not only put illegals – including women and children – at risk of health issues in the frigid temperatures, but he also increased the burden of the taxpayer by adding layers to the illegal entitlement program in effect throughout the sanctuary state of Illinois. The result has been yet another $17 million of taxpayer funds earmarked by Governor Pritzker to address the migrant crisis in the suburbs. Meanwhile, many suburbs, such as Schaumburg and Elk Grove Village, are passing ordinances to deny bus drop-offs in their jurisdictions.

Given the recent reporting of Behind Enemy Lines and Terry Newsome, it is no wonder why many Illinois suburbs are enacting ordinances to keep illegals out. In a recent article by the New York Post, it was noted that the notorious Venezuelan gang, Tren de Aragua, has established a presence in the U.S. by migrating through the open border. Along with such transnational criminal organizations as MS-13, these gangs are proving to be a danger to citizens in many cities across the country.

Among the revelations about Tren de Aragua in the New York Post article was their commonly used hand sign. As Behind Enemy Lines was covering the migrant drop-offs in Downers Grove, Illinois, Newsome approached a group of military-aged young men from Venezuela. Shockingly, as observable in the screenshots, young men can be seen flashing the very hand signs referenced in the New York Post article.

NYPD Faces Unprecedented Surge in Violence: Over 5,300 Officers Assaulted in 2023 and 1,200 Injured in Just 90 Days By Sharika Soal

Feb. 18, 2024 12:20 pm – In news that should be heard all around the world, liberals are hurting cops, and no one is being forced to apologize.

Over the last quarter of 2023, 1,286 NYPD officers were injured in physical altercations with suspects. This brought the total to 5,363 cops wounded in 2023.

The New York Post reports,

The 40th Precinct in Mott Haven, the Bronx, was the most dangerous battleground, where 135 cops were injured during struggles with lawbreakers, the stats show.

Next, with 129 injuries, was the 75th Precinct in Brooklyn, which covers East New York and Cypress Hills.

“No real surprises here – all very busy commands where perps are emboldened to fight,” observed one law enforcement source.

Radical protests, an influx of criminal migrants, bail reform, anti-cop rhetoric and soft-on-crime prosecutors is the brew that fuels the dangerous and disturbing trend, experts told The Post.

Police Benevolent Association President Patrick Hendry called the assaults on NYPD cops a “full-blown epidemic.” He added: “Even the simplest summonses are turning into all-out brawls. Our justice system needs to send a clear message, once and for all — is you assault a police officer, you will stay in jail.”

The number of uniformed officers injured in attacks by suspects increased by 20% in 2022, from 3,933 in 2021 to 4,724 in 2022. A total of 5,363 attacks were reported in 2023, a 13% increase over last year (4,737)

LAWRENCE SELLIN EXCLUSIVE: Biden’s Department of Agriculture Is Conducting Bird Flu Research with a Chinese Scientist Linked to People’s Liberation Army by Lawrence Sellin, Ph.D

Feb. 18, 2024 3:00 pm – In a letter to Tom Vilsack, Secretary of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Senator Joni Ernst (R-Iowa) demanded answers to why the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) is funding a collaboration with a Chinese Communist Party (CCP)-linked researcher involving dangerous bird flu experiments.

Senator Ernst pointed out that the researcher involved with those experiments is affiliated with China’s infamous Wuhan Institute of Virology, from where the COVID-19 pandemic is believed to have started. Like the dangerous experiments on coronaviruses conducted in unsafe laboratories in Wuhan, this collaboration will involve a form of gain-of-function research that could make the virus more infectious.

What Senator Ernst failed to notice was that the Chinese scientist she identified, Wenjun Liu, is also a frequent research collaborator with scientists from China’s People’s Liberation Army (PLA).

Wenjun Liu, who is now Deputy Director of the Key Laboratory of Pathogenic Microbiology of Immunology, Institute of Microbiology, Chinese Academy of Science, received a Ph.D. from the University of Florida in 1996. Between 1996 and 2000, he was a postdoctoral fellow at the Howard Hughes Medical institute/Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation and became a Senior Scientist at Genzyme Corporation until he returned to China in 2004.

The five-year Department of Agriculture project with China, “US-UK-China Collab: Predictive Phylogenetics For Evolutionary and Transmission Dynamics of Newly Emerging Avian Influenza Viruses,” began in 2021 and costs $1 million.

While the Department of Agriculture project has been underway, Wenjun Liu was conducting research on the COVID-19 virus (SARS-CoV-2) in 2022 with PLA scientists like Guangyu Zhao from the Academy of Military Medical Sciences in Beijing, China.

Incidentally, another participant in the above-mentioned PLA study on the COVID-19 virus was Penghua Wang, a Chinese scientist at the University of Connecticut, who is funded by Anthony Fauci’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID). Oddly, it appears that Penghua Wang has not yet reported his collaboration with the PLA to NIAID.

EU “Suicide Pact” Threatens To Flood Continent With 75 Million More Migrants by Paul Joseph Watson

SATURDAY, FEB 17, 2024 – 07:00 AM – The EU has passed a migration pact dubbed “the suicide of Europe” which could lead to the continent being flooded with as many as 75 million new migrants.

The European Parliament’s LIBE committee passed the act on Wednesday, which formalizes the distribution of migrants to member states and punishes those that refuse to take them.

Because cultural enrichment and diversity is “our greatest strength,” countries that try to maintain their national identity without being subsumed by migrants will be hit with severe financial penalties.

Marine Le Pen, the leader of National Rally’s parliamentary wing, previously said the pact would lead to “the suicide of Europe,” adding that it was a deal with the devil and represents an “organized plan of submersion of Europe and the nations which compose it.”

WATCH: UN Kidnappers, Rapists, Murderers (Video) By Pamela Geller

February 17, 2024 – UNRWA is a Terrorist Organization

Our taxpayer dollars at work. Here is a video of an UNRWA employee kidnapping a Jew out of Israel on October 7.

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) is one of the most corrupt, sinister, and dishonest organizations of any kind operating anywhere in the world today, and finally the West appears to be waking to that: it has just lost over eighty percent of the funding it has received for its $1.1 billion budget in the wake of revelations that its employees have been actively aiding Hamas, or are even outright Hamas jihadis. Some short-sighted and vociferously antisemitic leftists, however, are determined to go down with the UNRWA ship: in an insane act of far-left tone-deafness and/or defiance, a Norwegian MP has just nominated the group for the Nobel Peace Prize.

Victims of October 7 demand declaration of UNRWA as terror group By PressNewsAgency

February 13, 2024 – An initiative to declare UNRWA a terrorist group is being spearheaded by the Shurat HaDin Legislation Middle, representing dozens of October 7 bloodbath victims.

Shurat HaDin’s initiative is focused towards the Protection Ministry. The group argues that there’s a stable authorized foundation for such a designation. Their opinion, comprised of arguments that stretch over eight pages, was submitted to Protection Minister Yoav Gallant.

The President of the Legislation Middle, legal professional Nitsana Darshan-Leitner, commented, “Now it’s clear to everybody that UNRWA has opened its doorways to Hamas terrorists in an unprecedented manner. Within the guise of a humanitarian group that perpetuates a false and harmful historic narrative, they’ve themselves develop into a central headquarters of a terrorist group, a few of whose workers murdered harmless Jews with their very own palms.”

The present initiative is available in gentle of the IDF’s latest revelation of the Hamas command middle within the Hamas tunnels under UNRWA’s headquarters, which operates on behalf of the UN within the Gaza Strip.

Darshan-Leitner continued, “UNRWA is not a humanitarian company – its develop into a full-scale jihadi group. This gives all of the grounds and authorized proof for the Protection Minister to declare them a terrorist group. This designation is the need of the hour in an effort to forestall the subsequent victims of terrorist violence and expedite the collapse of Hamas rule within the Gaza Strip.”

SICK: Funeral of Transgender Activist and Atheist Prostitute Faces Backlash for Including Prayers for Sex Change and Celebrating ‘Whoredom’ at Catholic Cathedral in NYC (VIDEO) By Jim Hᴏft

Feb. 17, 2024 1:40 pm – A funeral liturgy held on Thursday at St. Patrick’s Cathedral for Cecilia Gentili, a prominent “transgender activist and actress, former sex worker and self-professed atheist,” has ignited a firestorm of controversy.

The service, which took place in one of the most revered Catholic churches in the United States, has drawn intense criticism on social media.

The service, which took place in the hallowed halls of St. Patrick’s Cathedral in Manhattan, has been criticized for the misuse of the iconic church, challenging Catholic teachings.

Gentili, an Argentinian transgender activist and self-proclaimed atheist, was a leading figure in efforts to decriminalize sex work in New York and championed the inclusion of “gender identity” as a protected classification under state human rights law, according to Post Millennial.

Gentili was also a significant fundraiser for transgender causes and had received a $540,000 grant from the Biden administration for transgender outreach related to HIV.

The funeral was organized by Ceyenne Doroshow, founder of Gays and Lesbians Living in a Transgender Society (GLITS), who saw St. Patrick’s Cathedral as a fitting venue for Gentili’s “iconic status.”

However, Doroshow admitted to the New York Times not disclosing Gentili’s transgender identity to the church officials, stating, “I kind of kept it under wraps.”

The funeral service itself included prayers for access to sex-change surgery. A particularly provocative farewell message described Gentili as “puta,” which means whore in English.

“This whore. This great whore. St. Cecilia, Mother of all Whores!” said one of the activists.

BREAKING REPORT: Truckers Plan to Stop Shipments to NYC in Response to Political Hack Judge Engoron’s $238 Million Ruling Against Trump and His Sons (VIDEO) By Patty Mcmurray

Feb. 17, 2024 5:20 pm – Truckers to the rescue—again.

Truckers bravely exposed some of the worst COVID shutdowns in the world when they parked their trucks in Ottowa to protest the iron-fisted approach used against citizens by the Justin Trudeau regime. Truckers in the US showed solidarity for their Canadian neighbors and helped block shipping between the US and Canada in Detroit, Michigan. Democrat Governor Gretchen Whitmer, who was being considered for Joe Biden’s VP, quickly threatened arrest for truckers who dared to block the Ambassador Bridge.

American truckers are now reportedly threatening to stop deliveries into New York City over the grotesque $364 million judgment against President Trump and his sons Don Jr. and Eric by partisan hack Judge Engoron on Friday.

Aside from first responders, is there another profession in the United States that proudly wears patriotism on its sleeves like the American trucker?

An American trucker who goes by “Chicago Ray” had this to say in a video he shared on social media, where he explained why truckers across America are planning to stop delivering to NYC.

“I’ve been on the radio talking to drivers for the last hour and fifteen minutes, and I’ve talked to at least ten drivers going the other way. I’m heading down from South Wisconsin. And they’re [other truckers] gonna start refusing loads to New York City, starting on Monday for NYC. I talked to about three guys that I work with who texted the boss and told him they’re not going to New York City.

I don’t know how far across the country this is or how many truckers are gonna start denying loads to go to New York City, but I’ll tell you what—you f**k around and find out!”

Okay? We’re tired of you motherf**kin’ leftists f**king around with Donald Trump.

You know, motherf**kers are starting to get tired of this shit—and our bosses don’t care if we’re denying the loads into New York; we’ll go somewhere else.”

I don’t wish nothin’ on nobody, but what I’m hearing—this is real!

Ya, know—we’ll see. Leave Trump the f**k alone with the bullshit! Alright? You know you ain’t got shit on Trump, so cut the bullshit! He’s gonna win this motherf**ker on appeal, but it’s still—you know how bullshit! It’s election interference.

I hate to say it, but Truckers are for Trump. We’re like 95% – 96% out here—-all Trump. Ain’t no motherf**kers for Biden!

“I’ll let ya know what else I hear by the time Monday rolls around,” he said, adding, “I’ll see ya down the road!”

Amazon Facing Massive Lawsuit: Prime Video Accused of Misleading Subscribers By Bryan Chai

February 17, 2024 at 12:44am – Remember when streaming was championed as a cheaper, ad-free alternative to traditional cable?

Those were the days.

Those days appear long gone… and Amazon Prime Video may be the first to pay the price for this at least based on a potential lawsuit that the tech titan could be facing.

According to a report from The Hollywood Reporter, a proposed class action lawsuit against Amazon was filed on Feb. 9 in a California federal court.

The source of the grievance? Money and ads.

The lawsuit alleges that Amazon misled Prime subscribers by including an additional fee to watch movies and television shows on the service without ads.

The issue arose when Amazon made the controversial decision to flip all Prime subscribers to their ad-supported tier.

Before that change, which was implemented in 2023, Amazon’s 100 million-plus Prime subscriber base had default access to the ad-free tier of streaming.

Prime subscribers (for the unaware, that service tier was originally meant to expedite shipping before it began to include the video streaming) now have to pay an additional $2.99 per month to have ads removed.

Scheme Uncovered to Announce Palestinian ‘State’ RIGHT AWAY! by Bob Unruh

But draws chorus of objections

Feb. 16, 2024 6:40 pm – A scheme has been uncovered that apparently would involve announcing – unilaterally – a Palestinian state right away, and it is drawing a chorus of objections.

The Algemeiner website reported the proposed plan, described by the Washington Post, calls for “the withdrawal of many, if not all, settler communities on the West Bank; a Palestinian capital in east Jerusalem; the reconstruction of Gaza; and security and governance arrangements for a combined West Bank and Gaza.”

Stunningly, the action could involve “early U.S. recognition of a Palestinian state – even as elements of political reform, security guarantees for both Israel and the Palestinians, normalization and reconstruction are being implemented.”

The discussion is stunning in that only in October, terrorists from Hamas, which works out of the Palestinian-controlled Gaza, invaded Israel and butchered some 1,200 civilians.

The scheme apparently is the work of the U.S. and several Arab states.

“In my speech yesterday in Berlin, I warned against the dangerous plan that is taking shape for unilateral international recognition of a Palestinian state,” said Gideon Sa’ar, an Israeli lawmaker who is not part of the government coalition.

“This plan will not only not resolve the conflict but will make it intractable. The Palestinians will receive state recognition without paying the the price of compromise and they will continue the conflict from an upgraded position that will harm Israel’s right to self-defense.”

Israel, according to reports, would be left out of the process entirely.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been opposed to such a move.

“1,400 murdered and the world wants to give them a state. It won’t happen,” National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir said on social media.

“The intention of the U.S., together with the Arab states, to establish a terror state alongside the state of Israel is delusional and part of the misguided conception that there is a partner for peace on the other side… While we are in the government, no Palestinian state will be established.”

The report said Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich also said, “We will in no way agree to this plan, which actually says that the Palestinians deserve a reward for the terrible massacre they did to us: a Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital. The message is that it pays very well to massacre Israeli citizens. A Palestinian state is an existential threat to the state of Israel as was proven on October 7, Kfar Saba will not be Kfar Aza!”

The news site also warned, the “overlooked ‘elephant in the room’: polls show that most of the Palestinian people don’t actually want a two state solution at all, on any terms, or in any borders.”

Hamas leaders have said it is unacceptable for them to be expected to recognize Israel in any form.

The report said “74.7% of Palestinians desire a Palestinian-only state that entirely supplants Israel, while 72% support the October 7 massacre, which, to be clear, included burning Israeli babies, beheading, mass rape, mass murder, and large scale kidnapping.”

[Ed.: They’re going to announce it any moment now! I hereby announce that they are in for a bit of a let down.]
