British Intelligence Chiefs are concerned that Russian intelligence have obtained compromising material on Prince Andrew and that the Kremlin has its hands on the controversial Israeli spy Jeffrey Epstein ’ s blackmail sex tapes .
The details are revealed in the sensational new book “ EPSTEIN : DEAD MEN TELL NO TALES.

I hope the growing concerns and reports about Jeffrey Epstein ’ s international sex-trafficking empire , and his relationship with the rich and powerful people like the Duke of York , will generate official and news media investigations which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Dougan , a former U.S. Marine and Palm Beach County Florida Deputy Sheriff , is now living in Moscow where he was granted political asylum in 2016 .
“ I fled to Russia after American intelligence agencies raided my home because I had exposed the rampant corruption and racism within the Palm Beach County Sheriff ’ s Office , ” he has said .
Not long after releasing that statement , John Mark Dougan took matters into his own hands , inviting journalist Ron Chepesiuk to review the materials and confirm their existence @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Chepesiuk flew to Moscow on September 24 , 2019 .
There , according to Chepesiuk , Dougan cracked open the Epstein blackmail files for the very first time .
“ He just wanted to verify , ” Chepesiuk told our team .
“ He suggested it and I said , ‘ It ’ s to verify that they have something there.
’ He said , ‘ I ’ m not going to show it to you long.
’ ” What happened next shocked the journalist : less than five minutes , and a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
It was obviously surveillance tape of a bedroom and there were a couple of younger , may even have been underage , I don ’ t know , they were very young .
“ It was far away and it looked like it was coming from a wall .
The camera and all that .
It looked like surveillance in a TV show .
So I just assumed that it was coming from a camera probably facing , on a wall.
” “ And there was some older men and I didn @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was very hard to see it from afar .
I wanted to , but they were definitely dealing with some sex , you know ?
So that was it .
Then he closed it up , and took it again and saved whatever he was doing .
I didn ’ t want to know .
“ I didn ’ t want to have the responsibility of trying to identify people so I wasn ’ t really interested in trying to identify people .
I just wanted to look at it and verify that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ surveillance tapes .
“ Pretty disgusting .
Didn ’ t want to be a voyeur .
I ’ m not into that sort of thing .
That was it .
That was it .
It was verified , and that was it .
“ I guess he wanted to have somebody else say that he had them .
We had developed a good working relationship and he trusted me .
He just wanted to verify that , because I don ’ t think he ever looked at the tapes until that moment because @ @ @ @ @ @ @ law enforcement in Palm Beach .
He never , what I can gather , really was interested in the contents .
“ He was a straight shooter , he gave his word that he would take care of them , and that ’ s what he did .
But he wasn ’ t really interested in what was going on inside .
“ But he ’ s been forced to pay more attention to it because of what broke in England with the Prince Andrew connection.
” That ’ s also the reason @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his life .
“ Now I have the very peculiar problem of worrying about being hunted down by MI6 , ” he claimed .
Chepesiuk says that during his visit , there were indeed red flags .
“ John said that he noticed a car following him , ” he recalled .
“ Here in Moscow there ’ s a lot of twists and turns so if you ’ re moving , twisting and turning and here ’ s a car that ’ s always on your , always in sight , you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ following you.
” “ John said the car was behind him right back into the city .
It ’ s about 30 or 40 kilometers .
It ’ s way out there that the alternative airport route in Moscow .
So it was a long journey to have this car in the back of you all this way.
” Dougan says he ’ s right to be concerned .
Recarey ’ s sudden death in 2018 — at the age of 50 — shocked those who knew him , as well as those @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Few people have noted , however , that he was not the only mysterious death in the Palm Beach area during that period .
In April 2018 , almost exactly one month before Recarey ’ s death , attorney Alan Ross , who represented an Epstein victim in the early civil suits , died of a similarly fast-acting cancer at age 68 .
Before that , the houseman who cleaned Epstein ’ s sex toys , Alfredo Rodriguez , died of a fast-acting , six-month cancer in 2015 , almost exactly at the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s civil case brought the Epstein story — and Prince Andrew ’ s part in it — back into the open .
He was only 60 .
“ Of course , he knew all about Prince Andrew , ” Rodriguez ’ s widow , Patricia Dunn said at the time .
Recarey ’ s Floridian wife told “ EPSTEIN : DEAD MEN TELL NO TALES ” that he passed from cancer , too .
Was it just a coincidence that these three men , all in Florida , died similar deaths that seemed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ?
Poisoning by arsenic , heavy metals , and radioactive substances are all known to cause cancer in humans .
Dougan says he ’ s not taking any chances .
His family left behind in the United States , he wonders if he ’ ll ever see them again .
“ Look , somebody has to expose the evil people , I guess you would say .
Somebody ’ s got ta do it , right ?
And somebody has to pay the price .
Am I happy that I ’ ve done @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
I ’ m very happy with what I ’ ve done so far.
” “ But now you ’ re asking me , is it worth it for me to have lost my children ?
I don ’ t know , man .
I mean , no.
” With the blackmail tapes now in the Kremlin ’ s grasp and with the potential to circulate worldwide , some now have a lot more to lose .

“I will not be divulging any of the information I may know of or possess, because the secrecy of the data I have access ensures the safety of me and my loved ones. I hope the growing concerns and reports about Jeffrey Epstein’s international sex-trafficking empire, and his relationship with the rich and powerful people like the Duke of York, will generate official and news media investigations which will uncover all the facts….” John Dougan, a former U.S. Marine and Palm Beach County Florida Deputy Sheriff, is now living in Moscow where he was granted political asylum in 2016. “I fled to Russia after American intelligence agencies raided my home because I had exposed the rampant corruption and racism within the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office,” he has said.
Not long after releasing that statement, John Mark Dougan took matters into his own hands, inviting journalist Ron Chepesiuk to review the materials and confirm their existence. A longtime friend of Dougan, Chepesiuk flew to Moscow on September 24, 2019.
There, according to Chepesiuk, Dougan cracked open the Epstein blackmail files for the very first time.

“He just wanted to verify,” Chepesiuk told our team. “He suggested it and I said, ‘It’s to verify that they have something there.’ He said, ‘I’m not going to show it to you long.’”
What happened next shocked the journalist:
less than five minutes, and a couple of random scenes from the thing. It was obviously surveillance tape of a bedroom and there were a couple of younger, may even have been underage, I don’t know, they were very young. “It was far away and it looked like it was coming from a wall. The camera and all that. It looked like surveillance in a TV show.

But he wasn’t really interested in what was going on inside. “But he’s been forced to pay more attention to it because of what broke in England with the Prince Andrew connection.”
That’s also the reason, Dougan says that he fears for his life.

As the United States government suffers from losses incurred due to the coronavirus crisis; the local government of towns like Tenino in the state of Washington are coming up with innovate, revolutionary methods to combat and mitigate the impact of the pandemic. They have proposed a unique solution to enable its residents to fulfil their needs and to withstand and overcome their financial urgencies.
$25 local currency made of Wood
It was in a town meeting that Wayne Fournier, the mayor of Tenino, Washington was motivated to implement a big idea, that has so much prospect. Tenino started printing its own $25 local currency made of wood, reported Reuters. The currency has the name of the town, ‘Tenino’ superimposed on the image of a bat with the words “COVID relief” accompanied with the Latin phrase “Habemus autem sub potestate” in cursive, which suggests, “We have it under control.”
The situation
Fournier said that he had plans for creating new jobs in Tenino. But the lockdown bought everything to a standstill. A lot of start-ups and businesses have already announced that they are not going to reopen, and the others are seeking financial help and support.
The town of Tenino is also impoverished as compared to rest of the Washington State. There is a higher rate of poor people, says Fournier. Tenino needs to come up with a solution to combat the problems it is going through.

Global productive capacity has shrunk significantly as a consequence of the lockdown. Even important things like personal protective equipment and ventilators are in short supply just because people are not able to work due of the current outbreak.
Fournier’s Currency Program
Residents of Tenino, who are below the poverty line receive money from the $10000 fund; when they apply for it. If approved, they are given Tenino’s wooden local currency which are worth $25 each. Every resident can acquire 12 wooden notes or $300 on a monthly basis.
There are certain restrictions on how the residents can spend the money. The money cannot be used to buy lottery tickets, cigarettes and alcohol because the currency is designed to serve essential needs of food, medicine, education and daycare.
Practically all business in Tenino accept the wooden notes. And to turn these notes into cash they have to submit Redemption Requests.
Why Wooden Currency?
The reason for the implementation of this wooden currency is simply that; by having its own local currency Tenino wants to keep the money in the community.
It went 1930s viral
The wooden currency can revitalize the local economy as it did during December 1931, when Tenino’s only bank shop closed. Don Major, a local newspaper publisher put across the brilliant idea – “With no bank, Tenino could make its own local currency”. Then Major with other officials who agreed to do so minted notes on Sitka spruce.
Fourier puts it as, “It went 1930s viral”. Money now really grows on trees!
Business started paying with these wooden local currencies and flourished. Susan Witt says, “It is a very grim time for small businesses. Many won’t survive.” She has the opinion that a currency managed locally is an excellent choice to address local needs.
The future plan
Fournier is optimistic, he says “We will run out this program. And then we will look into having our own city currency.”
Many benefits of this innovative idea are already being leveraged; this probably provides a hint of the unforeseen future. It is still too soon to know what this idea brings and serves for.
Fournier views this as a step to overcome the unprecedented losses and overcome the anticipated losses happening due to crisis.

Dr Li-Meng Yan wants to ‘tell the truth of the Origins of COVID-19’
Dr Li-Meng Yan was forced to leave her friends and family in China. “If I tell it in Hong Kong, the moment I start to tell it, I will be disappeared and killed. No one can hear me” she said during a Fox News interview. Dr Li-Meng Yan, who is now hiding accuses China of not acting responsibly and covering up information about the new SARS-like coronavirus that should be globally known. She said she has come to the US to ‘tell the truth of the Origins of COVID-19’ to the world – to let people understand how terrible and dangerous this new virus can be.
Secret Investigation on Coronavirus
‘This is about whether all humans in the world can survive’, says Dr Li-Meng Yan. She was one of the first scientists to start research about COVID-19 since December 31st when the emergence of SARS like coronavirus was reported in Wuhan, China. This has grown into a public health crisis since then.
Dr Leo Poon, who was her supervisor and WHO consultant asked Dr Li-Meng Yan to do a secret investigation of what really happened in Mainland China. The Chinese government denied the experts to do research, this is when she turned to her friends.
She talked to a friend who is a scientist at the Chinese Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC China). He told her that there was a family-cluster-cases, which obviously hints that this virus should be capable of human-to-human transmission. However, WHO did not confirm that this virus could be transmitted among humans for several weeks.

The Coverup
Dr Yan showed a conversation happening in a group full of clinical doctors in China. She shows a message by a doctor, asking if any clinical doctors in China are willing to share this information about this SARS like virus. It was surprising how other doctors in the group told her ‘don’t ask’ as ‘this is too sensitive’.
She told Leo Poon about her research, and he told her to be careful. Poon even warned Dr Yan before, ‘don’t touch the red line’ or don’t go across the Chinese government’s principles.
She felt that the information was important and urgent and should be known to everyone. ‘But then he didn’t do anything’ says Dr Yan. She waited but she didn’t see any action or response.
She also recalls Prof Malik Peiris, the co-director of WHO labs, to know all about how terrible the situation is as a virologist and doctor. But their was no specific action taken.
Dr Li-Meng Yan flees Hong Kong
On 27th of April, Dr Yan got a ticket for the US and took the flight on 28th of April. She knew that any step before the flights took off, she could be stopped. ‘I had to leave as soon as possible’ says Dr Yan. A political exile group helped her to escape from China.
When she arrived at LAX ‘initially everything goes off well. I pass the customs and get my luggage’ says Dr Yan. But then at the exit there were two officers trying to stop her. She said she didn’t actually know the reason why they were there. They brought her to office where they asked where she was from and what did she do.
“I had to tell them the truth,” she said. “I’m doing the right thing. So I tell them that ‘don’t let me go back to China. I’m the one who came to tell the truth here of COVID-19… And please protect me. If not, the China government will kill me.”
The Threatening Cyberattacks
By the mid of May the cyber attacks began. This ‘Cyber Military’ was attacking her from Twitter. She said ‘they tried to spread a lot of rumour, ruin my reputation and said that I was lying’. They created a fake Facebook account under her Chinese name, Yan Limeng using her profile to tell people that she was kidnapped by the Americans and that she tried to lie to people. They even told that she had mental disorders.
There were also steps like deleting her webpage from the University of Hong Kong website. She said that when the situation goes public she is likely to be attacked by such claims – “All full of lies”.
The danger: friends, family and colleagues under Surveillance
Among all of this a different scene was unveiling in Hong Kong while she was still on the flight. The China Ministry of the State Security went to her hometown Qingdon with the policeman to trouble her family.
‘I am afraid of the safety of my family and friends and all the people who had sent me the information. No matter doctors, or officers or lab people, researchers, scientists. They all know it clearly they trust me and I need to protect them’ says Dr Yan. The Chinese government is trying to trouble her friends and family and all those who have tried to help her are under surveillance and constant threat.
Dr Yan says that a vaccine or any magic solution should not be expected at this moment. What is needed is understanding where the virus comes from, doing the right research and to protect ourselves, protect our family, our friend and anyone around us in the right way. ‘That is the one right thing we could do now and that is very critical for everyone of us’, says Dr Yan.

Bankrupted By Sexual Abuse Cases, US Catholic Church Biggest Beneficiary Of Taxpayer-Backed Coronavirus Aid Of $1.4 Billion

The U.S. Roman Catholic Church accumulated a sum equal to $ 1.4 billion using a special and unprecedented exemption from US federal rules , in taxpayer-backed coronavirus aid .

In Orange County, California, where a sparkling glass cathedral that costs over $70 million was recently inaugurated, the diocesan officials received four loans that were at least equivalent to $3 million.
A loan of minimum $2 million was given to the diocese covering Wheeling-Charleston, West Virginia. Here a church investigation done last year revealed that the then-Bishop Michael Bransfield took funds and made sexual advances toward young priests.
Lobbying for a loophole
In this scenario, being eligible for low-interest loans was a new opportunity. For surety, the Church couldn’t have obtained approval for so many loans. The government could have approved if they are used for wage, rent and utilities without a second break.
The administration was requested by religious groups to free them from a rule that typically disqualifies an applicant that has more than 500 workers. Without this request many Catholic dioceses are ineligible as they exceed the 500-person limit.
Actual amount of loans hidden
The amount that the church collected, between $1.4 billion and $3.5 billion, is an underestimate. The Diocesan Fiscal Management Conference, which is an organization of Catholic financial officers did the job of surveying members and reported that about 9,000 Catholic entities have already received loans. That is nearly thrice the number of Catholic recipients the Associated Press (AP) could identify.
The AP couldn’t find more Catholic beneficiaries because it was denied the permission of naming recipients of loans under $150,000. This is a category in which many smaller churches would fall into. The government’s data was released after pressure from Congress and a lawsuit from news outlets. Being more precise wasn’t possible because only ranges of loan amounts were released.
Although it wasn’t an in-depth accounting, AP’s analysis seats the Catholic Church as one of the major beneficiaries through the Paycheck Protection Program, which also has helped companies backed by celebrities, billionaires, state governors and members of Congress.
However, many of the financial problems of the Church were self-inflicted. Long before the pandemic, scores of dioceses faced increasing financial pressure because of a massive rise in clergy sex abuse claims.
The sexual abuse scandals
The 2018 scandals reverberated throughout the world. Pope Francis ordered the former archbishop of Washington, Cardinal Theodore McCarrick to live a life of “prayer and penance” following allegations that he abused minors and adult seminarians. A grand jury report about the abuse in six Pennsylvania dioceses revealed bishops had long covered spurring investigations in more than 20 other states, for predator priests.
As the church presumed with its longtime crisis, abuse reports tripled to a total of nearly 4,500 in the whole nation combined. From $106 million, in just five years the dioceses and religious orders lost $282 million. Most of this incurred money went to settlements, besides legal fees and support for offending clergy.
There were about 40 dioceses as loan recipients that have spent hundreds of millions of dollars in the previous years paying victims through compensation funds. The AP’s review made the finding that these dioceses were approved for a sum that is estimated to be about $200 million, though the value can likely be much higher.
In 2016, a victim compensation fund was established by Cardinal Timothy Dolan to lift the limitations on filing of child sexual abuse. Since then, other dioceses have established similar funds, which offer quick settlements to victims.

greatgameindia--2020-07-13--Scientists Claim New York Has Recorded Stunning 70% Rate Of Herd-Immunity To COVID-19 In New Study

Scientists claim New York has recorded a stunning 70 % rate of herd-immunity to COVID-19 in a new study .
The findings suggest it could protect New Yorkers from any second wave of Coronavirus .
68 % of people who took tests at Corona clinic in Queens received positive results while 56 % tested positive in Jackson Heights , reported Yahoo News .
The results which were shared by CityMD , a healthcare company with the New York Times show a higher rate than anywhere in the world , based on publicly released data .
Angela Rasmussen , a virologist @ @ @ @ @ @ @ positive rate in Corona “ a stunning finding.
” However , she said it would be a mistake to base public health decisions off antibody rates across a population .
Earlier , the Director of the Moscow based Microbiology Research Institute , claimed herd immunity saved Russia from Coronavirus .
He attributed lower Coronavirus death rates in Russia to higher herd immunity among Russians .
According to another study , unique micro RNA in Indians give them comparatively better immunity to protect against Coronavirus .
The study revealed that the severity of COVID-19 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ countries because of this unique RNA in Indians .
This is because of unique micro RNA , called hsa-miR – 27b , which successfully mutates the coronavirus responsible for COVID-19 .
In other words , Indians have a comparatively better immunity compared to other countries which will help us fight the pandemic better .

Scientists claim New York has recorded a stunning 70% rate of herd-immunity to COVID-19 in a new study. The findings suggest it could protect New Yorkers from any second wave of Coronavirus.

68% of people who took tests at Corona clinic in Queens received positive results while 56% tested positive in Jackson Heights, reported Yahoo News.
The results which were shared by CityMD, a healthcare company with the New York Times show a higher rate than anywhere in the world, based on publicly released data.
Dr Daniel Frogel, a senior vice president for operations at CityMD, which plays a key role in the New York City’s testing program, suggested that some communities may have already achieved herd immunity.
Angela Rasmussen, a virologist at Columbia University, called the high positive rate in Corona “a stunning finding.” However, she said it would be a mistake to base public health decisions off antibody rates across a population.
The “magical number for herd immunity assumes that everyone infected has complete protection from a second infection. But what about people with partial protection?” she told the NYT. “They may not get sick, but they can get infected and pass it along.”
Earlier, the Director of the Moscow based Microbiology Research Institute, claimed herd immunity saved Russia from Coronavirus. He attributed lower Coronavirus death rates in Russia to higher herd immunity among Russians.

“Three to four times [66%-75%] lower, we’re at the tail end of the list, since the herd immunity of our fellow countrymen, I am extremely confident, is much higher than that of European and American citizens,” Gingsburg said in an interview aired on Rossiya-24 TV.
According to a study, unique micro RNA in Indians give them comparatively better immunity to protect against #Coronavirus. The study revealed that the severity of COVID-19 in India is less compared to other countries because of this unique RNA in Indians.https://t.co/R8ES87hWuX — GreatGameIndia (@GreatGameIndia) May 20, 2020
According to another study, unique micro RNA in Indians give them comparatively better immunity to protect against Coronavirus. The study revealed that the severity of COVID-19 in India is less compared to other countries because of this unique RNA in Indians.
This is because of unique micro RNA, called hsa-miR – 27b, which successfully mutates the coronavirus responsible for COVID-19. In other words, Indians have a comparatively better immunity compared to other countries which will help us fight the pandemic better.

Herd immunity occurs when a large percentage of a population has developed immunity to an infection, whether through previous infections or vaccinations, thereby protecting individuals who are not immune.

There is huge pressure from the vaccine industry combined with the fear-mongering from media to extend the lockdown until they come up with their vaccines. Infact, past experience show this is exactly what the World Health Organization (WHO) did a decade ago.

In a shocking development the President of Madagascar has made a sensational claim that the WHO offered $20m bribe to poison COVID-19 cure.

In the wake of strict lockdown being imposed by governments globally, it bears upon the common people, thinkers, researchers and scientists to question whether such methods are indeed correct and singularly helpful in combating the outbreak of COVID-19. While the World Health Organization and vested interests are busy pushing cartelized medicine and vaccines, what is not being told to people is that it is scientifically proven that fresh air and sunlight have been overpowering diseases since centuries – the Cure that time forgot.
