WATCH: Ukrainian Judge Says Bidens Accepted Bribes.

The former Ukrainian Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin believes that he was fired as a result of President Joe Biden’s pressure on the Ukrainian government, and says that Biden and his son Hunter were accepting Ukrainian bribes in connection with Burisma – the Ukrainian holdings firm for which Hunter Biden and his former best friend Devon Archer acted as executives.

Shokin, who was fired in 2016 by then-Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko, told Fox News in an interview on Saturday evening:

“I have said repeatedly in my previous interviews that Poroshenko fired me at the insistence of the then Vice President Biden because I was investigating Burisma.”

“There were no complaints whatsoever and no problems with how I was performing at my job. But because pressure was repeatedly put on [then-Ukrainian President Petro] Poroshenko, that is what ended up in him firing me,” Shokin added.

Shokin went on to explain that if he were allowed to continue his investigation into Burisma, he would have uncovered the various “corrupt activities that they [the Bidens and Devon Archer] were engaged in.”

Asked whether the Bidens were accepting bribes, Shokin responded, “I do not want to deal in unproven facts, but my firm personal conviction is that, yes, this was the case. They were being bribed.”

Shokin’s statements add further to the mountain of evidence against the Biden’s over their crooked financial affairs, the covering up of which likely swayed the 2020 presidential election.

Republican Debate Ratings Couldn’t Compare With 2016.

Roughly 12.8 million people tuned in to watch the first Republican primary debate on Fox News, Wednesday night – in line with expectations for the first debate of the 2024 presidential cycle. However, viewership fell far short of the 24 million people who watched the comparable debate eight years ago.

The debate, held in Milwaukee, saw frequent clashes between newcomer Vivek Ramaswamy and the other presidential hopefuls, particularly former Vice President Mike Pence and former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley. Despite its lower ratings, Fox News claimed that the debate was the most-watched non-sports cable broadcast of the year.

Former President Donald Trump, the Republican front-runner with a commanding poll lead, did not participate in the debate but instead had a pre-taped Twitter interview with former Fox News host Tucker Carlson, which had earned well over 250 million views as of the time of publication.

In an interview prior to the Fox News debate, co-moderator Bret Baier acknowledged that Trump’s presence may have boosted viewership.

Trump’s absence has impacted Fox News before, as his withdrawal from a Fox-hosted debate in 2016 resulted in lower viewership compared to the first debate of that cycle.

FBI Contractor Indicted on Child Sex Crimes.

Former FBI contractor Brett Janes, 26, has been indicted with multiple charges related to alleged sexual exploitation of children. The charges include two counts of sexual exploitation of children and production of child sexual abuse material, one count of attempted coercion and enticement, as well as one count of receipt of child pornography.

It is alleged that Janes groomed several young boys over the internet by contacting them through social media platforms like Discord and Snapchat. Janes purportedly posed as an intelligence agency worker and threatened self-harm if the boys did not comply with his demands.

He reportedly coerced and enticed minors to engage in sexual activities via live video calls, and also purchased numerous photos and videos depicting child sexual abuse. The case is being investigated jointly by the FBI and Arlington County Police, and will be prosecuted by Trial Attorney McKenzie Hightower of the Criminal Division’s Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section. If convicted, Janes will face a minimum sentence of 15 years in prison and a maximum sentence of life in prison.

aerosolized covid vaccine

Researchers Create Aerosolized COVID Vaccine.

Yale University researchers have created a new airborne method of delivery for mRNA vaccines which they believe will radicalize the way people are vaccinated in the near future. Their findings are detailed in a report published in the journal Science Translational Medicine. “In the new report, there is no intramuscular injection,” said Professor Mark Saltzman.

“We just gave two doses, a prime and a boost, intranasally, and we got a highly protective immune response. But we also showed that, generally, you can deliver different kinds of mRNA. So it’s not just good for a vaccine, but potentially also good for gene replacement therapy in diseases like cystic fibrosis and gene editing. We used a vaccine example to show that it works, but it opens the door to doing all these other kinds of interventions.”

– Prof. Mark Saltzman, 2023.

The news comes at a time when COVID is back in the headlines, with unearthed documents revealing the Department of Defense has spent millions of dollars on new COVID equipment contracts that due to begin in September and October 2023.

The issue also raises questions aerosolized vaccines being deployed without people’s consent or awareness. Biotechnologists have argued for years in respectable academic publications that “compulsory moral bioenhancement should be covert”.

As reported by the National Pulse, mRNA vaccines have been used on pig herds in the US since at least 2018, with only farmers and vaccine manufacturers generally aware of it.

The Missouri state senate took up legislation to ensure clear labelling of products containing “gene therapy” technology this year, receiving ferocious attacks from “Big Agriculture” and its representatives in the chamber. The bill was defeated.

Biden Govt Sues Hooters Alleging ‘Racial Discrimination’.

A Hooters restaurant in Greensboro, North Carolina is facing a lawsuit by the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) for alleged racial discrimination against its employees. According to the EEOC, the franchise location temporarily terminated Black and darker-skinned staff members, also known as “Hooters girls,” during the early months of the pandemic in March 2020. The agency stated that 43 employees were laid off during this period, and when the establishment recalled employees in May 2020, mostly white or light-skinned employees were brought back.

The EEOC’s lawsuit, filed in the US District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina, claims a marked shift in the racial composition of the restaurant’s Hooters Girls workforce. Out of the 13 employees recalled, 12 were reported to be white and/or have light skin tones (whatever the latter means).

Additionally, the EEOC reported a 43 percent decrease in dark-skinned and/or Black employees from before the layoffs until after rehiring. The complaint also alleges racial hostility and preferential treatment of white employees by dark-skinned and/or Black employees while they were working at the establishment.

The plaintiffs argue Hooters’ actions violated Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which protects employees from workplace discrimination and harassment. The EEOC seeks monetary relief, including back pay, compensatory and punitive damages, and injunctive relief against the Hooters franchise. Neither Hooters nor the EEOC have provided comments on the lawsuit at this time.

‘Single-Digit Midget’ DeSantis Collapses Into 4th in New Hampshire.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has fallen behind both Chris Christie and Vivek Ramaswamy in the early GOP battleground state of New Hampshire, dropping to just 9 percent of the vote as former President Donald Trump continues to dominate the field.

A poll by Echelon Insights, quizzing 800 likely Republican Primary Voters, puts Chris Christie in second at 14 percent. Previously little-known Ohio businessman Vivek Ramaswamy is also in double digits at 11 percent – putting him in third place. Senator Tim Scott (R-S.C.) is polling at 7 percent, just two points behind the Florida Governor.

Donald Trump stands at 34 percent in the Granite State.

Interestingly, New Hampshire voters listed “political corruption” as their number one issue, with the cost of living in second, jobs and the economy in third, immigration in fourth, and national security fifth.

The DeSantis campaign continues to slump in both state and national polling while bleeding cash – despite multiple attempts to reboot the campaign. Seemingly unable to gain traction in the polls or raise campaign cash, DeSantis have increasingly become reliant on support from the Never Back Down SuperPAC which The National Pulse has exposed for being a hive of Never Trumpers and actual Democrats. The Echelon Insights poll is just the latest to show DeSantis being overtaken by Ramaswamy.

Bob Barker, Longtime ‘The Price Is Right’ Host, Dies at 99.

Bob Barker, the iconic host of America’s TV game show “The Price Is Right,” has died at the age of 99, according to his longtime publicist Roger Neal. Barker hosted the popular game show for 35 years, from 1972 to 2007, and gained a loyal following. His career spanned over half a century, starting as the host of “Truth or Consequences” in 1956, and retiring from “The Price Is Right” in 2007.

Born on December 12, 1923, in Darrington, Washington, Barker moved to a Sioux Indian reservation in Mission, South Dakota, at the age of six. After serving in the U.S. Navy during World War II, he attended Drury College and graduated with a degree in economics. Barker’s broadcasting career began in Florida, where he hosted his own radio program before moving to California in 1950.

Barker became the host of “The Price Is Right” in 1972, breathing life into the show and helping it become the longest-running daytime game show in TV history. He also hosted the Miss Universe and Miss America pageants for 20 years, as well as the New Year’s Day Tournament of Roses Parade.

Despite a scandal involving a former model accusing him of impropriety in 1994, Barker’s TV legacy remained strong, and he received an Emmy Award for Lifetime Achievement. He retired from television in 2007 but continued his activism for animals until his death.

climate change wildfires

NOT Climate Change. Greece Arrests 79 ‘Arsonist Scum’ for Wildfires.

The Greek government has confirmed it has arrested 79 people for arson amid a spate of devasting wildfires, suggesting that, as in Italy and Spain, the disasters are being caused by criminals rather than climate change, despite the globalist press calling such ideas a “conspiracy theory”.

“You are committing a crime against the country,” railed Civil Protection Minister Vassilis Kikilias, warning that arsonists have attempted to set a number of new fires on Mount Parnitha, which lies north-west of Athens and hosts monuments including a Byzantine monasery and several Ancient Greek fortresses.

“Arsonist scum are setting fires that threaten forests, property and, most of all, human lives,” Kikilias continued, vowing: “You will not get away with it, we will find you, you will be held accountable.”

Greece, as a European Union (EU) border state, bore the brunt of the migrant crisis in 2015, and continues to play host to many mostly African, Middle Eastern, and South Asian migrants who became stuck in the country after Germany and other westerly EU member-states grew less enthusiastic about opening their borders to all comers.

Asylum seekers disgruntled about being stuck in Greece have been known to burn down the camps where they are looked after in hopes of being moved into better accommodation or allowed to move on to another country – but officials have avoided giving any information on the background of the arsonists responsible for the current spate of blazes.

There have been cases of Greek vigilantes targeting migrants since the fires began, with one video showing a man with several Syrians and Pakistanis detained in a trailer and urging others to “round them up” or “they will burn us.”

quran burning

Denmark Announces Ban on ‘Uncivilized’ Quran Burnings.

Denmark is bringing forward legislation to criminalize burning the Islamic Quran as a form of protest, after demonstrations caused Muslims to riot and angered the Islamist Turkish government.

“The government will propose legislation that prohibits the inappropriate handling of objects with essential religious significance for a religious community,” Justice Minister Peter Hummelgaard confirmed.

“The proposal will thus make it punishable to, for example, in public burn a Quran, Bible or Torah,” he added – although it is protests involving the burning of the Quran, specifically, which have been causing unrest in Denmark and especially neighboring Sweden recently.

Hummelgaard brushed off concerns that the effective reintroduction of blasphemy laws in the European Union would infringe on freedom of expression, saying: “I fundamentally believe there are more civilized ways to express one’s views than burning things.”

Many of the recent protests have been organized or inspired by Rasmus Paludan, a Danish-Swedish dual national and leader of the Stram Kurs (Hard Line) party.

Muslims responded to a Quran burning organized by Paludan over Easter 2022 in Sweden by engaging in violent riots, injuring dozens of police officers.

Several of the protests have taken place in the vicinity of Turkish embassies and consulates, infuriating the Turkish government and prompting Turkish leader Recep Tayyip Erdoğan to order Sweden to pass laws banning Quran burnings as a condition of approving its application for NATO.

Top Ukraine Officials Embezzled Funds Meant for ‘Humanitarian Aid’.

Ukraine’s First Deputy Minister of Agrarian Policy and Food, as well as the Former Deputy Minister of Economy, have been accused of misappropriating UAH 62.5 million (nearly $1.7 million USD) “…during Ukrzaliznytsia’s (Ukrainian Railways) procurement of food supplies for the population in a state of war,” according to the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU).

The two officials are believed to have purposefully overpaid for food and supplies via companies controlled by associates or family members who then turned around, using an intermediary company, and purchased the actual goods at fair-market-value – with the controlled company pocketing the difference. NABU notes that the government officials made no efforts to work with Ukrainian suppliers.

This isn’t the first time high ranking officials in the President Volodymyr Zelensky have used the ongoing conflict with Russia to line their pockets. Several weeks ago, Zelensky was forced to remove all regional heads of military enlistment amid an ongoing investigation into military recruitment corruption, announcing that army veterans will become responsible for drafting new troops.

The National Pulse previously reported that the decision came after accusations of corruption by way of “draft evasion” among military recruiters, who were seen to be enriching themselves at the expense of the Ukrainian armed forces. There are now 112 criminal proceedings and 33 ‘suspicions’ against enlistment office officials for their involvement in the scheme.

Recent polling indicates the Ukrainian people blame the rampant incidents of public corruption on President Zelensky directly. According to the Democratic Initiatives Foundation (DIF) and the Kyiv International Sociological Institute (KIIS), over 75 percent of Ukrainians believe Zelensky himself is to blame for increasing corruption in the government and military.
