Pentagon ‘Accounting Error’ Magically Finds Extra $6.2bn… for Ukraine.

The Pentagon has revalued the cost of arms, ammunition, and vehicles sent to Ukraine to find an additional $6.2 billion for the war effort, doubling the $3 billion sum it thought it could come up with in May.

Initially, weapons and munitions donated from American stocks had been valued in terms of their replacement cost, but revaluing them in terms of their purchase cost instead has reduced their worth substantially.

The accounting trick is not being used to save American taxpayers money: “It’s just going to go back into the pot of money that we have allocated for the future Pentagon stock drawdowns,” confirmed Pentagon spokeswoman Sabrina Singh.

Ukrainian forces have suffered “heavy losses” after launching a counter-offensive that has made only minimal gains, and reports indicate a large portion of their U.S.-made Bradley Infantry Fighting Vehicles (IFVs), for example, have been destroyed. The additional $6.2 billion the Pentagon has discovered will allow some of their losses to be replaced without increasing the a

mount of money American taxpayers have spent on the war, at least on paper.

FLASHBACK: DeSantis Admits SLOWER COVID Reopening Than Trump White House Suggested.

Governor of Florida Ron DeSantis admitted that it took him longer to fully re-open the state of Florida than former President Donald Trump recommended during the COVID-19 pandemic, archive video from the Governor’s social media has revealed.

Last month, DeSantis attacked Trump’s record on COVID after the former President called the Governor of Florida’s pandemic response “average.” However, at the height of the pandemic in 2020, DeSantis accepted that he didn’t listen to the White House’s advice, keeping Florida closed for longer than was necessary.

“When we announced phase one, we followed the White House’s guidelines, but we didn’t even do everything they said we could do in Phase 1… so it was a limited Phase 1, it was a safe Phase 1, it was a smart step, but it was done step by step,” DeSantis argued.

Phase 1 meant that restaurants, barber shops, and retail stores, among others, could only open to 50 percent capacity.

Indeed, Florida was one of the later Republican states to lift lockdown restrictions. In fact, Mississippi, Tennessee, Alaska, Georgia, Oklahoma, Alabama, Indiana, Montana, South Carolina, and Texas all began opening up before DeSantis’s home state.

POLITICO Says Satanists Are ‘People of Faith’ Like Jews or Unitarians, Fighting Abortion Restrictions.

Restricted access to abortions infringes upon the religious rights of Satanists, as well as “other people of faith” including Jews, Episcopalians, and Unitarians, argues POLITICO. The wildly offensive comparison between Satanists and others comes almost a year after the Supreme Court’s decision to strike down Roe v Wade.

Challenges against the decision by “clergy members and practitioners of everything from Judaism to Satanism” are being launched in state and federal courts, POLITICO notes, claiming Satanists in Texas, Idaho, and Louisiana, argue “the laws infringe upon their congregants’ belief in bodily autonomy and right to practice abortion as a religious ritual.”

Jewish challengers in Kentucky are citing religious texts that say life begins when a baby takes its first breath, while in Florida, the Episcopal Church, the United Church of Christ, and the Unitarian Universalist Church sued to overturn a recent 15-week abortion ban.

The Satanic Temple’s religious abortion ritual involves, “the recitation of two of our Tenets and a personal affirmation that is ceremoniously intertwined with the abortion.” The affirmation requires a member to say: “By my body, my blood, by my will, it is done.”

By pursuing legal action against abortion bans, Satanists are “chip[ping] away at the assumption that all religious people oppose abortion,” POLITICO states.

OMG: BlackRock Staff Boasts ‘Control of President’s Wallet’, Says He ‘Buys Senators’.

The investment firm BlackRock has been profiting from the war in Ukraine and uses its $20 trillion in assets to ‘buy people,’ including U.S. senators for as little as $10,000, claims an employee of the company in hidden camera footage obtained by James O’Keefe’s OMG Media group.

Serge Varlay, a recruiter at BlackRock, explained to an undercover reporter “it’s not who the president is, it’s who is controlling the wallet of the president. The hedge funds, Blackrock, the banks.” The brag comes as President Joe Biden faces questions about Ukrainian bribes and mystery money.

Varlav also says the war in Ukraine is “f***ing good for business,” due to Ukrainian commodities such as wheat and bread being affected, creating an opportunity for profit.

BlackRock is one of the world’s largest asset management firms, owning shares in corporate giants such as Apple, Amazon, Microsoft, Anheuser-Busch, Meta, Pfizer, CNN, and Fox News. Its influence, however, is seldom mentioned by the media.

Varlay suggests this is because “it’s easier to do things when people aren’t thinking about it,” adding, “[t]hey [BlackRock] want don’t to be in the news. They don’t want people to talk about them. They don’t want to be anywhere near the radar.”

Instead, BlackRock asserts its influence by buying U.S. politicians who do the company’s bidding on its behalf. Varlay tells the undercover reporter: “You can buy your candidates… first, there’s the Senators. These guys are f**king cheap. You got 10 grand? You can buy a Senator… [i]t doesn’t matter who wins, they’re in my pocket.”

Farage: Kids Being Poisoned by ‘Modern Fascism’ of Gender Theory.

Nigel Farage argues that the LGBTQIA+ movement’s attempted indoctrination of children in schools is “probably the biggest single battle” our societies are currently facing. The intervention from “Mr. Brexit” comes after footage of a school teacher berating her pupils for questioning gender theory was released to the British public.

In the clip, tha teacher at Rye College suggests that the pupils should go to another school if they are not willing to accept far-left gender theory allowing people to “identify” as whatever they wanted, including animals.

Addressing the news, Farage stated: “[T]hese sorts of things go on in classrooms every day in my country [the UK], America, and I bet it’s happening in Australia, too, and very rarely does any of this actually have documentary evidence.”

“Our kids are being literally poisoned by intolerance. She wasn’t allowed that 13-year-old to have a different point of view: it’s a sort of modern form of fascism,” continues Farage.

“I actually think long-term this is probably the biggest single battle are societies face, if we’re turning out indoctrinated children, not capable of free thinking, not capable of understanding that different people have different points of view…if we can’t stop that, then goodness knows where we’re gonna be in 20 years time,” he added.

WATCH: ‘OceanGate’ CEO’s DEI Rant – Hiring ‘Old White Guys Not Inspirational’

Stockton Rush, CEO of the OceanGate company responsible for a Titanic exploration submarine currently lost at sea, prioritized diversity over experience when putting together crews. “When I started business… other sub operators [were] out there but they typically [had] gentlemen who are ex-military submariners… a whole bunch of 50-year-old white guys,” he said during a 2020 interview.

“I wanted our team to be younger, to be inspirational… [A] 25-year-old who’s a sub pilot or a platform operator or one of our techs can be inspirational,” he said while an image of a female crew member showed on screen, adding: “We also want our team to have a variety of different backgrounds.”

When OceanGate submarine Titan went down on June 18th, the man at the helm was reportedly Paul-Henry Nargeolet, a 77-year-old Frenchman who does have a military background. Rush, who has led many dives himself, was also on board.

Sonar searches for the Titan have detected banging sounds, meaning the sumarine’s five passengers could still be alive.

‘Cisgender’ a ‘Slur’ Says Musk.

Elon Musk has declared that “the words ‘cis’ or ‘cisgender’ are considered slurs” on his Twitter platform. The Silicon Valley billionaire says the originator of these terms – used for people whose gender identity matches their sex – is a “contemptible creep”.

Musk made the comments in response to a user who complained of receiving “a slew of messages from trans activists calling me ‘cissy’ and telling me that I am ‘cis’ ‘whether or not I like it’.”

“Repeated, targeted harassment against any account will cause the harassing accounts to receive, at minimum, temporary suspensions. The words ‘cis’ or ‘cisgender’ are considered slurs on this platform,” Musk said.

He added that “the contemptible creep that manufactured the term ‘cis’ has serious problems,” referring to German sexologist Volkmar Sigusch, who argued in the 1970s that “children would not suffer from sexual relations with adults and that those relations should not be punished”.

German media published an interview with Sigusch in 2011 in which he said it was “very important to approach pedophiles and pedosexuals and offer them therapy.” He said those who cannot be reached by therapy should be dealt with in “accordance with the law” but added that “[w]e are all potential murderers, and we are all potential rapists and abusers.”

Musk recently accepted that Twitter would abide by the European Union’s speech rules.

AI is Worth $4.4 Trillion to the Elite. So, More Than You.

Artificial intelligence (AI) could be worth up to $4.4 trillion to multi-national corporations and their bosses amidst an ongoing race to implement AI tools across business models.

Generative AI, such as ChatGPT, which can create data including videos, pictures, and music, has the potential to automate up to 70 percent of tasks that take up the average workers’ time, which will “add” between $2.6 to $4.4 trillion to the global economy and increase the impact of AI by up to 40 percent, according to a report from consulting firm McKinsey.

AI is expected to be instrumental across a number of industries, from banking to pharmaceuticals. Its uses could range from “automating conversations with customers, to creating personalized messages for customers, generating code, and even ‘generative design’ which is ‘accelerating the process of developing new drugs and materials,’ states the report.

As a result, advances in AI will quickly enable elites to “transform worker productivity” and, therefore, cut costs and maximize profit. The report makes almost no reference to jobs or employment as a result of the deployment of AI technologies – a curiously downplayed discussion point in most current mainstream conversations about the emerging technologies.

This is merely the beginning, argues McKinsey. The industry is likely to grow from $40 billion in 2022 to $1.3 trillion by 2032 at a compounded rate of 42 percent per annum.

‘Conservative’ Party Expels Mayor for ‘Repenting’ Over Gay Pride Event.

A mayor for Britain’s governing Conservative Party has been forced out after apologizing for attending a Pride ceremony. Mohammed Nazam had attended the raising of a “progress flag”, which includes extra stripes for minorities and transgenders. But he later publicly “repented”, saying he had “reflected deeply on the consequences of my actions” and “wholeheartedly apologized” for them.

For this apology, Mayor Nazam was forced by the “Conservative Party” to resign.

“The role of the town mayor is to represent everyone within the community and therefore it was deeply disheartening to read the mayor’s statement,” complained Conservative Member of Parliament (MP) Robbie Moore, who also attended the flag raising.

Nazam has issued another apology since his ouster, saying his participation in a pride event “did not conform to my religious beliefs and hence I offered an apology to the Muslim community,” adding: “All elected Muslim representatives would be in the same position.”

“By my apology I did not mean any harm to the LGBTQ community,” he said, insisting Islam “teaches respect and tolerance for all and the law of the land.” The Conservative Party legalized gay marriage in 2015, and have been accused of “going far left” by Donald Trump.

fauci lied

POLL: Most Believe ‘Fauci Lied, People Died’.

A plurality of Americans – 47 percent – believe that former COVID task-force member and National Institutes of Health (NIH) boss Anthony Fauci lied about the U.S. government’s role in gain-of-function research, which potentially led to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. The new data from Rasmussen Reports shows more than two-thirds of Republicans – 67 percent – believe Fauci lied, with just 25 percent of Democrats concurring.

Rasmussen also asked the 1,051 likely U.S. voters: “How likely is it that some U.S. officials were involved in a cover-up of China’s role in the COVID-19 pandemic?”

The vast majority – 66 percent – responded that a cover-up was likely, with 45 percent believing it was “very likely” and another 21 percent “somewhat likely.” Moreover, 54 percent of Democrat voters believe that a cover-up was likely, with a whopping 77 percent of Republicans concurring. Only 25 percent of the American electorate answered that a cover-up was either “not very likely” or “not at all likely.”

Lastly, Rasmussen asked whether voters agreed with the statement “China lied. Fauci lied. People died,” – a quote used by Republicans such as Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene.

A majority of 60 percent either “strongly agreed” or “somewhat agreed,” including 45 percent of Democrats and more than three-quarters of Republicans – 76 percent.

Fewer than one-third – 32 percent – disagreed with the statement, with 44 percent of Democrats and only 20 percent of Republicans.
