The Biden regime knew Ukraine was planning an attack on the Nord Stream pipelines supplying Germany with Russian gas months before they were sabotaged, according to the Discord leaks allegedly released by Air National Guard member Jack Teixeira.
The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) was apparently warned by an unnamed European government agency about a six-person, Ukrainian special forces team planning the attack.
“Biden administration officials now privately concede there is no evidence that conclusively points to Moscow’s involvement” in the attack on Nord Stream, the Washington Post admitted on Tuesday, despite the outlet blasting former President Donald Trump for his assertion on the matter in April.
Investigators believe six people used fake passports, rented a yacht, and embarked from Germany on a mission to plant explosives. Explosive residue found on the pipeline matched residue inside the cabin of the yacht, Andromeda. WaPo claims investigators suspect at least one of the divers serves in the Ukrainian military.

An advisor to the UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has warned that Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems will become powerful enough to “kill many humans” within the next two years.
Matt Clifford, an advisor to the UK government’s Advanced Research and Invention Agency (Aria) AI Taskforce, called the rapid development of AI “striking” and argued that policymakers should prepare themselves for threats “ranging from cyberattacks to the creation of bioweapons.”
“If we try and create artificial intelligence that is more intelligent than humans and we don’t know how to control it, then that’s going to create a potential for all sorts of risks now and in the future,” Clifford explained.
“You can have really very dangerous threats to humans that could kill many humans, not all humans, simply from where we’d expect models to be in two years time,” he added.

UPDATE: Per The National Pulse’s story yesterday, below, CNN’s Chris Licht has now been terminated.
“I met with Chris and he will be leaving CNN,” Warner Bros Discovery CEO David Zaslav told CNN employees on the company’s editorial call on Wednesday.
Zaslav told staff that Licht would be replaced by interim leaders Amy Entelis, Virginia Mosely, and Eric Sherling, effective immediately. “I have great confidence in this group,” Zaslav said.
ORIGINAL REPORT FROM JUN 6 2023:
CNN’s relatively new CEO, Chris Licht, is “a dead man talking” according to “dozens of CNN on-air talent, producers, and journalists.” Staff are irate with Licht after The Atlanticpublished a critique of his premiership at the network, which dominated the corporate media news cycle this past week.
“Inside the Meltdown at CNN,” was largely critical of Licht’s leadership strategies for “rescuing the network,” and includes complaints about his decision to hold a town hall event with former President Donald Trump.
Licht apologized to CNN employees on Monday, telling them, “CNN is not about me.” Network big shots like Jake Tapper, Wolf Blitzer, and Erin Burnett are said to have lost faith in Licht.
Meanwhile, David Zaslav, the CEO of CNN’s parent company Warner Bros Discovery also appears to be showing signs CEO fatigue. Zaslav recently appointed long-time colleague David Leavy to Chief Operating Officer (COO) at CNN to rebuild the network.
Zaslav recently commented on ousted anchor Brian Stelter’s Instagram page: “Looking great buddy….miss u.” This apparently has sparked rumors of Stelter’s return to the newsroom, inside the organization.

The destruction of a Ukrainian dam approaching the scale of America’s Hoover Dam has unleashed a devastating torrent of water in the country’s south. Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky blamed Russia for damage to the Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant.
Russian officials, however, say the attack on the dam was a “deliberate act of sabotage” by Ukraine, “linked to the fact that, having begun large-scale offensive operations two days ago, the Ukrainian armed forces are not achieving their aims.”
The BBC opines that Ukraine’s claims are “plausible” given major flooding in the region could hinder a Ukrainian counter-offensive – but the Ukrainians told The Washington Post in December that they had been considered blowing the dam, and even conducted a successful HIMARS test strike on its floodgates:
“The Ukrainians… even conducted a test strike with a HIMARS launcher on one of the floodgates at the Nova Kakhovka dam, making three holes in the metal to see if the Dnieper’s water could be raised enough to stymie Russian crossings but not flood nearby villages.”
– Washington Post, December 29 2022
Several villages are currently believe to be submerged. The dam held back a volume of water roughly equivalent to the Great Salt Lake in Utah.

Twitter’s ‘Community Notes’ — a system which allows “fact checks” to be added beneath some tweets — are being weaponized in the run-up to the Republican presidential primary, with some users even having opinions fact-checked under the guise of adding ‘context.’
The outgoing CEO of Twitter, Elon Musk, initially introduced Community Notes “to create a better informed world by empowering people on Twitter to collaboratively add context to potentially misleading Tweets.”
The function has quickly begun to operate as a means of fact-checking posts that partisan readers disapprove of, whether inaccurate or not. One such example involves the “Trump War Room” account’s assertion that Florida Governor Ron DeSantis kept businesses closed until September 2020.
Notably, DeSantis lifted COVID restrictions on business, including bars and restaurants, in September 2020, as reported by Reuters at the time, yet Community Notes was quick to “add context,” which, in turn, implied the claim was false.
Another example concerns Chris Pavlovski, CEO of video platform Rumble, who was subjected to a Community Note after arguing:
“Community Notes on Twitter is a really bad idea. It’s a fancy word for fact checking, which will eventually be gamed, hijacked and/or cause more harm than good.”
Despite Pavlovski merely opining on the subject, Community Notes “added context” about the tweet. This encouraged another Republican primary hopeful, Vivek Ramaswamy, to tweet his fear that opinions becoming tagged by Community notes “is more eerie and Orwellian than what you’d expect from a “free speech platform.”
The Notes system is reliant on users, particular those who register, to add “fact checks” to tweets, which they are then circulating to friends to vote up. This adds a Note to a tweet, and is being used to try to deflect from criticism of their preferred candidate.
To date, the DeSantis campaign appears to be mass weaponising the system in the style of corporate media “fact checkers” in order to save their candidate from online criticism.

UPDATE: Slater Bayliss, a lobbyist for Anheuser-Busch (Bud Light) and former Jeb Bush Special Assistant has held his position as one of the top bundlers for the “DeSantis for President” campaign.
Bayliss’s name topped the charts for the second time, after he was originally spotted in the top five at DeSantis’s launch at the Four Seasons earlier in 2023.
His name was spotted in an Instagram reel posted by another DeSantis donor, Brooke Waltzer, as reported by investigative journalist Laura Looomer.
Bayliss’s employer, the Advocacy Group, is part of the larger Cardenas Partners former by Bush-Cheney co-chair Al Cardenas.
Additional screenshots I have exclusively obtained from the Instagram account of @TeamDeSantis bundler Brooke Waltzer sheds more light on just how sloppy the DeSantis campaign is.
An Anheuser-Busch (Bud Light) lobbyist is also a major bundler for Governor Ron DeSantis, POLITICO has revealed.
Slater Bayliss, a former Jeb Bush “bundler” was even the third-largest bundler for the DeSantis campaign at one point during his Four Seasons donor meet the day of his campaign launch. Bayliss had raised at least $242,600 for DeSantis.
Anheuser-Busch has seen $27bn wiped off its value since its endorsement from transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney.

Congressman Devin Nunes, the CEO of Truth Social, has described the primary campaigners against Donald Trump as “asinine and ass backwards” and reliant on Biden Department of Justice overreach to keep Trump out of the 2024 presidential race. His comments came in a fiery new episode of the Steak for Breakfast podcast (episode 244).
Nunes described the opposition with which Donald Trump is dealing as the “underbelly of the beast, the lobbyists, the Woke [corporations], and all of the so-called ‘right-wing’ consultants that have been out of the money during the Trump years” trying to field candidates who have no chance of winning despite spending up to $500 million against the former President.
The former Congressman also suggested some primary candidates should “get out of the Republican Party” if “you don’t see this corruption at the highest levels, how they are coordinating the Department of Justice, the Intelligence Agencies, the Democratic propaganda also with the fake news media. If you don’t see how that’s working, you are clueless, and I’m never voting for you.”
Nunes further expressed his incredulity at Republicans “running over to Zuckerberg and Facebook” or Twitter spaces and begging to be promoted or receive support from Big Tech. “You wanna lead this nation… and you don’t even understand the basic battlefield: it’s kinda sad and pathetic,” he added.
The Steak for Breakfast show is available here, or on Apple Podcasts, Google, Spotify, and all other major podcast platforms.

Lockdown measures imposed in March 2020 had a ‘negligible impact’ on the number of deaths from COVID-19, according to a landmark study by researchers at John Hopkins University and Lund University in Sweden.
According to the research, which analyzed some 19,646 studies, Britain’s national lockdown measures prevented as few as 1,700 deaths in England and Wales. Notably, the number of weekly deaths in England and Wales is around 11,000. The study infers that European countries which embraced lockdown had just 6,000 fewer deaths than those that did not, while “the US could have seen 4,000 fewer deaths.”
Indeed, the researchers argue that the COVID-19 lockdowns were “a global policy failure of gigantic proportions” as the “draconian policy failed to significantly reduce deaths while imposing substantial social, cultural, and economic costs.”
“The science of lockdowns is clear; the data are in: the deaths saved were a drop in the bucket compared to the staggering collateral costs imposed,” the authors of the study concluded.

A school district serving 74,000 children in Utah has banned the Bible in response to a liberal parent’s efforts to subvert legislation aimed at keeping inappropriate books out of schools.
“You’ll no doubt find that the Bible, under Utah Code Ann. § 76-10-1227, has ‘no serious values for minors’ because it’s pornographic by our new definition,” asserted the anonymous parent in an eight-page complaint to the Davis School District.
A district review committee upheld the complaint, deciding it would “retain the book in school library circulation only at the high school level based on age appropriateness due to vulgarity or violence” – despite the parent openly admitting that his complaint was made in “bad faith”.
“I thank the Utah Legislature and Utah Parents United for making this bad faith process so much easier and way more efficient,” they wrote, referring to the conservative lawmakers and parents who pioneered news legislation allowing parents to challenge “pornographic” materials.
The Bible ban is being appealed to a full panel of the Board of Education – but it may not have much practical effect either way.
Davis School District spokesman Christopher Williams says fewer than ten school libraries even stocked a Bible, and that it does not feature in the curriculum, despite Utah’s status as a stronghold of Mormon Christianity. A ban on the Book of Mormon is also under consideration.

Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), hit out at former Trump strategist Stephen K. Bannon for refusing to support Speaker Kevin McCarthy over the debt ceiling increase. Last week, Bannon called for Greene (or ‘MTG’) “to be primaried” by someone who is “REAL MAGA” due to her shift away from her formerly staunch support of the grassroots movement.
In response, Greene leaked her own text messages with colleague Rep. Matt Gaetz to the far-left Daily Beast website, in which she states:
“…And Bannon, who was senior counsel to Trump in the WH and responsible for the first debt ceiling increase bc Bannon is reckless and no where near fiscally responsible, is now telling everyone I should be primaried… Steve and I aren’t getting back together. And if he keeps it up I’ll take the house and kids. I hope you send it to Steve. Because I’m done.”
– MTG texts to Matt Gaetz.
Greene’s rise to fame on the MAGA right was, in fact, due to her early appearances on Bannon’s War Room show that she now claims to be “done” with. Greene – who has been advised by former Breitbart blogger and pederast apologist Milo Yiannopolous – did not seem to grasp that Bannon worked with Trump appointees to avoid any needless debt ceiling increases before he left his post in 2017.
In attacking Republican debt ceiling measures in 2017, 2018, and 2019, Greene is effectively attacking her Congressional colleagues, as well as former President Trump. According to ProPublica, Greene has voted with Speaker McCarthy 94 percent of the time in the 118th Congress (2023-2024).
