Sanders Says He Will Consider Tearing Down EXISTING Border Wall “ Should you do that , tear it down ?
I don ’ t know , maybe the answer is yes ” As President Trump continues efforts to divert funding to build a new border wall , Democratic Presidential candidate Bernie Sanders said Monday that he would consider ‘ tearing down ’ the existing border barriers if he is elected .
Sanders reasoned that the current barrier on the US-Mexico border is ‘ symbolic ’ .
He claimed that tearing the wall down “ may be ” the correct thing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ know it ’ s how much is it going to cost to tear it down ?
” “ Should you do that , tear it down ?
I don ’ t know , maybe the answer is yes.
” Sanders said .
“ That ’ s something you ’ re willing to consider ?
You ’ re willing to consider tearing down existing fencing between the U.S. and Mexico ?
” David Noriega further asked Sanders .
“ Yeah , I ’ ll always look , ” Sanders replied , adding “ but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cost me billions of dollars to tear it down , I ’ d rather invest that maybe in the needs for child care in this country.
” “ But it ’ s , you know , we can look at it.
” he concluded .
Sanders ’ comments came during a Vice News sponsored event ( hence the whacked out questions ) .
Sanders also promised to put a stop to “ 99 % of deportations ” , even including for violent criminals .
At the same event , Joe Biden , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to end all illegal immigration detention “ across the board ” : Is it any wonder that the consensus among migrants is that Democrats are going to allow them to illegally flood into the US if they win the election ?
Bernie and Biden ’ s comments came on the same day that thousands of migrants stormed a bridge over the Suchiate River from Guatemala to Mexico , attempting to move further north with a view to entering the US .

prisonplanet--2020-01-22--The New Mystery Virus In China Is ‘Adapting And Mutating’ And No Known Drug Works Against It

The New Mystery Virus In China Is ‘ Adapting And Mutating ’ And No Known Drug Works Against It Global health officials are racing to contain the outbreak of a mysterious new coronavirus before it starts spreading wildly out of control all over the planet .
Unfortunately , they may already be too late .
The virus has now spread to at least seven other countries outside of China , and a whole lot of people are starting to panic .
We are being told that early indications that you may have been infected include “ respiratory symptoms , fever @ @ @ @ @ @ @ breathing difficulties ” .
But those symptoms could also simply mean that you have caught a common cold or the flu , and so there is going to be a lot of confusion out there .
We are also being told that this is “ the seventh type of coronavirus known to affect human beings ” .
Back in 2003 , another coronavirus known as SARS created quite a global health scare before it was finally contained .
More than 8,000 people from more than two dozen countries were infected , and almost @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this stage we really have no idea how bad this current crisis will eventually become , but we do know that the total number of official cases has now risen to 440… And it does appear that this virus does spread quite easily from human to human , because at this point 20 medical workers have been infected… Were all of these medical workers just exceedingly careless ?
We don ’ t know , but what makes this crisis even more alarming is the fact that we are being told that this virus @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The following comes from Reuters… Will there be several different strains of this virus that eventually emerge ?
And will one of these strains be significantly more dangerous than the others ?
There are so many questions that we could ask , and authorities have so few answers at this point .
But what they are telling us is that treatment options are very limited .
In fact , the scientist that “ first decoded the virus ” told CNN that this disease “ doesn ’ t respond to antibiotic treatment ” … @ @ @ @ @ @ @ t that surprising that antibiotics don ’ t work , but we are also being told that no known drug works against it… Quarantine was the most effective way to stop the virus from being transmitted , since it spreads by droplets from the nose and mouth , said Zhong Nanshan , leader of a group of experts at China ’ s National Health Commission .
“ Now our big concern is if a super spreader emerges , ” Zhong said Tuesday at a news conference in the southern province of Guangdong , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ infects a disproportionately high number of people .
A “ super spreader ” is thought to have passed the virus on to 15 medical staff members at a Wuhan hospital .
Although some hospitals have been stockpiling antibiotics , they are not effective against viruses .
“ There ’ s no specific drug to treat the infection at the moment , ” Zhong said .
So that means that once you catch this virus , there isn ’ t much that the doctors are going to be able to do .
You can @ @ @ @ @ @ @ plenty of fluids , but the doctors are not going to have any sort of a magic pill to make it go away .
And on Tuesday we learned that this virus has already arrived in the United States .
The following comes from NBC News… He arrived back in the U.S. on January 15th , but he didn ’ t seek treatment until January 19th .
So that means that he had approximately four full days to spread the virus around .
And it makes sense that his symptoms did not emerge @ @ @ @ @ @ @ being told that the incubation period “ is probably a week ” … Countless others could be carrying this virus right now and not even know it .
Over in China , the most important holiday of the year is on January 25th , and hundreds of millions of people will be moving around the country… Needless to say , such a scenario is going to be a nightmare for health officials .
How in the world are they supposed to keep a virus with a long incubation period from spreading when so @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ?
We have already entered a time of great social instability all over the planet , and a major worldwide health scare would make things a lot worse .
On Wednesday , an emergency meeting of the WHO will be convened to determine whether “ to declare the outbreak a global health emergency ” … Hopefully they will take some prudent steps to control the spread of this virus , because we have definitely entered a very dangerous stage .
As the death toll rises , so will the level of fear , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ little that they can offer to those that become infected .

prisonplanet--2020-01-22--Chinese Officials Warn Of “Virus Mutation Spreading” – 440 Cases Confirmed, 9 Dead

: North Korea has temporarily closed its borders to foreign tourists , two major operators of tours to the isolated country said , in an apparent effort to seal itself off from a new virus causing global health worries .
: Chinese officials have just held a press conference that was anything but the usual CDC “ everything ’ s ok ” statement .
The particularly ominous warning that the virus is mutating and spreading is perhaps due to the poor handling of the SARS breakout in 2002/3 which was marked by cover-ups and official reluctance to share information .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s National Health Commission , confirmed there are 440 confirmed coronavirus cases in this new outbreak and there have been 9 deaths .
Some 1,394 patients are under medical observation .
Officials also confirmed Wuhan airport will have screening equipment ( and Wuhan citizens have been asked to limit travel ) and a nationwide monitoring system is being put in place ( one wonders if the social credit score will go down if a citizen contracts the deadly disease ) .
Finally , the officials said that they will disclose information in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ doing their best to curb the spread of the disease .
And all of this is happening as hundreds of millions prepare to travel for the New Year ’ s celebrations .
Long facemasks ; Short rats ( 2020 is year of the rat ) .
Just like we saw during past outbreaks of disease in China , a panicked population has bought up face-masks at such a frantic rate that several of their unscrupulous countrymen have resorted to gouging .
American brand 3M , a popular manufacturer of facemasks in China , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ online stores on e-commerce platforms Taobao and JD.com .
Meanwhile , guards at the Wuhan airport pointed electronic thermometers at travelers , with plans to segregate anybody showing a fever , an early symptom of the virus .
Several unscrupulous sellers who bought up masks en bulk are now managing to sell them for more than 10 times their original price .
Some retailers were selling the masks for as much as 40 yuan ( $ 7 ) , a more than 10-fold mark-up .
Users of Weibo , a Chinese social network @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to travel to instead consider staying home , and repeatedly washing their hands .
According to certain sites that track prices of Chinese goods , the masks typically sell for 53 cents .
At one pharmacy in Shanghai , a shopkeeper named Liu Zhuzhen said more than 100 people had bought masks by noon on Tuesday .
They sold out again after a re-stocking .
The viral pneumonia-like lung illness first discovered late last year in Wuhan , a mid-sized Chinese city in the center of the country , has Beijing ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ slowing economic growth and continuing trade pressure from the US – very much on edge .
It ’ s clear now that Beijing ’ s initial response to reports of a new SARS-like virus was to dissemble .
After initially insisting that there was no evidence that the virus could be spread by humans , health officials have now admitted that they were “ wrong ” , and that human-to-human transmission is possible , meaning that there ’ s no telling yet just how contagious this thing really is .
It ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ few weeks , it ’ s gone from a few isolated cases in Wuhan to nearly 300 confirmed cases , not just in Greater China , but also across the Asia-Pacific region , and now in the US .
The fact that the CDC has already identified the first case in Washington State suggests that this is an aggressive pathogen , and health officials are duly concerned .
It has already confounded expectations .
The fact that 139 cases – roughly half the total number reported – were only just identified over the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ infected hosts have had time to scatter back to wherever they ’ re from , potentially spreading the virus across the planet .
According to Bloomberg , the US case has been revealed to be a man in his 30s who returned to the US last week , but not before visiting a public market in Wuhan… The sudden spike in cases has prompted airports in the US , Australia and elsewhere to tighte illnesses has prompted tightened borders and a rapid attempt to trace contacts of those who have become ill. On @ @ @ @ @ @ @ decide whether this crisis qualifies as a public health emergency of international concern , a label signifying only the most complex pathologies with the potential to cross borders .
The WHO could recommend that travel be restricted , or that global governments take other drastic measures .
With global health officials on high alert , local authorities in Wuhan have announced that the city has 800 hospital beds ready in three separate designated care hospitals , and it ’ s ready to have 1,200 prepared at short notice , according to local media @ @ @ @ @ @ @ travel season about to begin , many fear that millions of Chinese traveling abroad or internally for vacation will help the virus spread at an exponential rate .
Chinese health officials have played down the possibility of this .
But they also say they don ’ t want to underestimate it .
After all , the last major outbreak , SARS in 2003 , killed 800 people .
: The CDC has confirmed that a traveler from China has been diagnosed in Seattle with the Wuhan Coronavirus .
The patient , who was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ had traveled to Wuhan , China , where the outbreak appears to have originated , federal officials have found .
Officials declined to identify the patient , who was said to be quite ill. Additionally , on a conference call , the CDC confirmed it expects more US cases to come .
The outbreak began at a market in China and now has spread to at least four other countries , and has killed at least six people and sickened hundreds more in Asia .
Broadly speaking , stocks are getting hammered on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ however , prices for flu-shot manufacturers are soaring : Nanovaricides +240 % , Novavax +53 % , Inovio Pharma +10 % , and Vaxart +14 % .
Transports are the worst hit on the day , already suffering from coronavirus fears overnight… Can The Fed just print up some anti-virus ?
As we detailed earlier , the global risk-off wave had started in the overnight hours of Monday as the full extent of the Chinese coronavirus scare became apparent to traders , has rolled into the cash session Tuesday with airline , casino @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stocks , taking a leg lower .
Delta Air -3.50 % , United Airlines Holdings -3.20 % , Southwest Airlines -1.5 % , and American Airlines Group -2.50 % , were all sold as the outbreak may crimp global air travel during the upcoming Lunar New Year holiday period .
Investors dumped Wynn Resorts -4.45 % , Las Vegas Sands Corp -4 % , and MGM Resorts International -3 % , as the virus threatens to decrease foot traffic .
Hotels were also sold , Wyndham Hotels and Resorts -1 % , Choice @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Stay America -1 % .
Travel stocks were dumped , Expedia Group -1 % , Booking Holdings -2.20 % , TripAdvisor Inc -1 % , and Trip.com -10 % .
Investors are unloading sensitive travel stocks because confirmed cases of coronavirus have tripled since Monday and spread to other countries around China with the risk of spreading across the world .
Fears of a 2002-03 outbreak of SARs has been on everyone ’ s mind to start the week – and with a Lunar New Year holiday fast approaching – the spread of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ahead .
Travel sensitive stocks have taken a beating in Asia , Europe , and the US – basically across the world on Tuesday , as investors brace for new cases of the virus that is quickly spreading .
Could this mean world stocks are due for a pullback ?

We described previously how organizers of the 50th World Economic Forum in Davos have beefed up security , including extra vehicle checks and ‘ webcam shutdowns , ’ while the Swiss national authorities have restricted the airspace above the event — and further up to 5,000 troopsand even fighter jets and radar have been utilized as part of a $ 9 million budget just for the extra security .

Timed for the World Economic Forum ’ s opening day , Swiss police have revealed an alleged Russian spy and infiltration plot , per a breaking report : Five months before world leaders began their pilgrimage to the annual World Economic Forum this week — among them US president Donald Trump — Swiss police interrupted what reports on Tuesday claimed were the beginnings of a Russian spying operation in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ unusually long stay in the high-end resort , police picked up two Russian men in Davos in August , the Graubünden cantonal police department confirmed to the Financial Times .
Adding to the strangeness of the story , the two Russians who apparently overstayed their welcome in the town were posing as plumbers .
Authorities believe that ’ s how they planned to access facilities and rooms where world leaders and global elites would discuss sensitive policies and planning .
President Trump is in attendance , and on the opening day gave a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ America First ” approach to global crises .
Zürich ’ s Tages-Anzeiger newspaper first broke the story , after Swiss police concluded the men were part of a Kremlin covert effort to wiretap conversations at the high security and notoriously secretive elite event .
Russia slammed the accusations as “ one more attempt to undermine Swiss-Russian relations , ” according to a statement issued by the Russian Embassy in Switzerland .
Though the initial newspaper report underscored that no specific criminal acts were uncovered , their lengthy stay and Russian passports evoked suspicion @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the pair claimed diplomatic protections , despite not being registered in the country as official diplomats — a normative requirement and procedure , according to local police statements .
Russian embassy officials acknowledged that two Russian nationals were briefly held and questioned by police , but that no criminal wrongdoing was found .

The Hague and other European cities like Brussels which host major international and Western institutions @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Court , have lately been described in international reports as becoming a hub for international spies gathering information for their governments .
In Davos this week , apart from the millions in overall event security being spent by the Swiss , the elite attendees are expected to spend tens of millions on their own personal security .
For example encrypting the US president ’ s personal communications alone is expected to run $ 266,000 for a mere two days , according to figures cited in FT .

UW Lecturer Claims He Was Demoted After Pointing Out Male & Female Differences Stuart Reges , a principal lecturer of computer science at the University of Washington , alleges that he was demoted for being sympathetic to James Damore , the fired Google employee who wrote the controversial Google memo in 2017 .
In an article for Quillette , Reges wrote that it all started in 2018 when he wrote another piece for the outlet titled , “ Why Women Don ’ t Code , ” which gained popularity after Jordan Peterson tweeted a link to the story .
The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ initially hired to run UW ’ s introductory computer science classes to which he developed two “ highly successful courses that have over 4,500 enrollments combined per year.
” Yet after his 2018 Quillette piece graduate students at the school filed a grievance against him with their union .
Reges told Campus Reform that he was deeply concerned about what happened to Damore and that he hoped it was an overreaction but said , “ I ’ ve since concluded that he was the canary in the coal mine .
I have seen @ @ @ @ @ @ @ call the equity agenda in tech in general and at my school in particular.
” In response to the graduate students ’ complaints , UW created a working group , which in turn released new guidelines .
The guidelines included less rigorous grading when it comes to coding , sensitivity and bias training for teaching assistants , and spending less time trying to identify students who are cheating .
The working group also suggested reviewing each course to ensure it is inclusive .
Furthermore , the guidelines recommended that professors include in their @ @ @ @ @ @ @ gender-neutral names that also reflect a number of different cultures , and the avoidance of the use of phrases like “ y ’ all , ” “ folks , ” and “ you guys.

” When asked by Campus Reform for his response to the denial by the school , Reges said , “ having the most complex and impactful duties that I perform taken away from me is obviously a demotion .

prisonplanet--2020-01-22--Central Bankers’ Core Mission Now Includes Climate Change

The Fed , ECB , Bank of England , and Bank of Japan have now embraced climate change as part of their mission .
It ’ s bad enough that central bankers are clueless about inflation .
They now want their hands in another thing they do not understand and can not control even if they did .
Lael Brainard , Chair of the Fed ’ s Committee on Financial Stability , says Climate Change Matters for Monetary Policy and Financial Stability .
So how does climate change fit into the work of the Federal Reserve ?
To support a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the Federal Reserve needs to analyze and adapt to important changes to the economy and financial system .
This is no less true for climate change than it was for globalization or the information technology revolution .
To fulfill our core responsibilities , it will be important for the Federal Reserve to study the implications of climate change for the economy and the financial system and to adapt our work accordingly .
Brainard was just one of the speakers at the Fed ’ s Economics of Climate Change summit last November .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ has this Q & A in her presentation .
The challenges posed by a string of recent natural disasters and the potential hit to the economy from slowing overseas growth “ should be better addressed by government with fiscal policy and structural policies , ” Kuroda said at a seminar .
As Japan is prone to big typhoons and earthquakes , Kuroda highlighted the risks related to climate change as an example of new issues central banks must deal with in maintaining financial stability .
“ Climate-related risk differs from other risks in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ effects will last longer than other financial risks , and the impact is far less predictable , ” he said .
“ It is therefore necessary to thoroughly investigate and analyze the impact of climate-related risk.
” The Bank of England hopped on the climate change bandwagon on December 30 , with a Climate Change Warning from BoE Chief Mark Carney .
The world will face irreversible heating unless firms shift their priorities soon , the outgoing head of the Bank of England has told the BBC .
He said leading pension fund @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up the policies of all of companies out there , they are consistent with warming of 3.7-3.8C ” .
Scientists say the risks associated with an increase of 4C include a nine metre rise in sea levels – affecting up to 760 million people – searing heatwaves and droughts , and serious food supply problems .
“ Now $ 120tn worth of balance sheets of banks and asset managers are wanting this disclosure [ of investments in fossil fuels ] .
But it ’ s not moving fast enough.
” ECB in on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reports Christine Lagarde Wants Key Role for Climate Change in ECB Review .
Consider this Open Letter to ECB head Christine Lagarde from the European Parliament .
During your hearing at the European Parliament , you rightly pledged to make sure the ECB puts the “ protection of the environment at the core of the understanding of its mission.
” As academics , civil society and trade union leaders , entrepreneurs and citizens deeply concerned by climate change , we believe that the most powerful financial institution in Europe can not just sit @ @ @ @ @ @ @ crisis .
Climate change not only imperils life-sustaining processes , it also threatens the financial stability , real economy and jobs .
It has been estimated that without mitigation efforts , physical risks related to climate change could result in losses of up to $ 24 trillion of the value of global financial assets .
Nonetheless , Germany ’ s Bundesbank president Jens Weidmann , who also sits on the on the ECB ’ s governing council , understands the silliness of the move .
Weidmann says that he would view “ very @ @ @ @ @ @ @ central bank ’ s actions towards climate change , such as favouring the purchase of green bonds as part of a quantitative easing programme .
Weidmann is guaranteed to be overruled .
Please consider Global Warming Fraud Exposed In Pictures The key to understanding the fraud is a changing timeline for temperature , fires , Winters , growing seasons , and sea level , all cherry picked for maximum impact .
To decide who wins the blue ribbon , first let ’ s do a simulation .
The above Alarming Map shows what @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sea level rises by 10 meters .
Caney said 9 meters but the average elevation of Florida is allegedly only 6 feet .
The highest elevation is only 312 feet .
I give Mark Carney the Central Bank fearmongering Blue Ribbon because people can understand the concept of Florida being three feet underwater .
In contrast , no one understands $ 24 trillion .
Besides , that estimates will soon be $ 250 trillion or higher due to Fearmongering Inflation .
None of the above tops AOC who says World Will End in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to Do About It Here ’ s a lesson for you climate fearmongers : Never put a time frame on your prediction that is shorter than your expected life or you will be ridiculed until you die .

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell ( R-KY ) allowed a hand-written change to the ground rules for President Trump ’ s impeachment trial , granting House Impeachment managers and Trump ’ s defense team an additional day to make their cases .
The rule change will mean both sides still have 24 hours to present their case , but three days to do so instead of two .
House impeachment inquiry transcripts will also be automatically entered into evidence , as opposed to being subject to a vote at a later point in the trial , according to Bloomberg .

“ The McConnell rules seem to be designed by President Trump , for President Trump , ” he said at a press conference before the trial , calling Republican efforts “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ U.S. Chief Justice John Roberts presiding , opened with a reading of the resolution and initial statements regarding the rules by Democratic Representative Adam Schiff for the House impeachment managers and White House Counsel Pat Cipollone for the president ’ s defense team .

prisonplanet--2020-01-23--Feminist Writer Suggests Men Who Won’t Date ‘Woke’ Women Are Radicalizing Terrorists

According to feminist writer Vicky Spratt , men not wanting to date ‘ woke ’ women is an “ insidious ” trend that could lead to the radicalization of terrorists .
In an article for Vice Media outlet Refinery29 , Spratt gets all worked up about Laurence Fox , the British actor who recently triggered a monumental hissy fit by daring to suggest that the UK was not a racist country and that “ white privilege ” doesn ’ t exist .
Fox has given several interviews in which he explains how he refuses to date ‘ woke ’ women @ @ @ @ @ @ @ He even said he dumped his girlfriend last year because she praised Gillette ’ s insufferable “ toxic masculinity ” commercial .
According to Spratt , Fox ’ s dating choices are part of an “ insidious ” societal trend that will inevitably lead to women being killed by terrorists .
“ There ’ s nothing funny about the things Fox – or Wokey McWokeface as he now wants to be known – is saying .
It ’ s also not particularly sad .
It ’ s dangerous .
He is just one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ result of said privilege , has been given a platform .
And he has used that platform to legitimise a bigger backlash against diversity and progress which is unfolding every single day in less public corners of the internet , ” she writes .
Spratt then goes on to cite the killing of Labour MP Jo Cox by right-wing terrorist Thomas Mair as well as the Christchurch shooting and the El Paso shooting , despite the fact that none of these shootings had anything to do with anti-feminism or hatred of women .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ stem from the fact that she is personally struggling to find a boyfriend ( most likely because of her God-awful woke opinions ) and is resentful towards Fox for touching a raw nerve .
“ Spend an afternoon on any major dating app and you ’ ll come across ( generally white ) men saying openly sexist and misogynistic things , ” whines Spratt ( because of course she ’ s single and obviously bitter about it ) , before going on to suggest she isn ’ t having much luck with the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is presumably doing just fine because real women are not attracted to low testosterone pussies who spend all day consuming soy products and apologizing for their white privilege .

If Google trends is anything to go by .
Google Trends data illustrates how Americans aren ’ t really interested in the impeachment of President Donald Trump .
Mike Cernovich posted the search interest data for the keywords “ impeach ” and “ impeachment , ” showing interest drastically slipping from its December high .
“ Friends ( and foes ) , there are objective ways to measure the public ’ s interest in a subject like impeachment , ” tweeted Cernovich .
“ You can see interest peaked ( not to be confused with piqued ) in December .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ here we are.
” Another graph shows that interest in impeachment was actually higher back in September last year than it is now .
Despite much hyperventilating by the media , the start of Trump ’ s Senate impeachment trial was watched by around 11 million viewers across 10 broadcast and cable television networks .
That ’ s down on the 13.8 million viewers who tuned in last November for the first day of the Congressional impeachment inquiry .

Trump Says He ’ d Love To Attend Senate Trial , “ Sit right in front row and stare in their corrupt faces ” President Trump declared Wednesday that he would love to attend the Senate impeachment trial and stare his accusers down .
Speaking from the World Economic Forum in Davos , Trump told a reporter “ I ’ d love to go .
Would that be great ?
Would that be beautiful ?
” “ I don ’ t know , I ’ d sort of love to sit right in the front row and stare in their @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to do it.
” Trump replied “ I don ’ t know .
Don ’ t keep talking because I may— you may convince me to do it.
” Trump replied , but acknowledging his lawyers wouldn ’ t love it .

“ He ’ ll stand , he ’ ll look at a microphone and he ’ ll talk like he ’ s so aggrieved , ” he said , declaring Schiff to be a “ major @ @ @ @ @ @ @ choice words for the media , calling the press “ partners ” in the “ Russian hoax ” .
“ If we could straighten out the press in our country , we would have a place that is so incredible.
” Trump urged .
“ The press is so dishonest , so corrupt .
I read it all the time .
I don ’ t mind bad stories .
I deserve bad stories sometimes .
But when I do something great , or good , let it be written about good !
Same @ @ @ @ @ @ @ added .
“ The corruption in the media , as I call it , the fake news media is unbelievable and hopefully everybody is going to sort of learn a lesson .

” Trump continued .
The President described the impeachment effort as “ a takedown attempt of a sitting president of the United States.
” “ The Russian hoax is a terrible thing .
The dossier was a phony deal , paid for by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ used in the FISA courts totally illegally .
It ’ s a terrible thing that happened.

The President also took a moment to slam Hillary Clinton , weighing in on the beef between the two time loser and Bernie Sanders .

prisonplanet--2020-01-23--Transgender MMA Fighter Who Fractured a Woman’s Skull, Named ‘Bravest Athlete in History’

MMA fighter Fallon Fox twice broke an opponent ’ s skull to win matches and now he is being praised by some in the LGBT community .
Outsports , a sports news website that focuses on LGBT issues in sports , named Fox the “ bravest athlete in history ” in a recent article written by Cyd Zeigler .
Fox , who is a biological male fighting physically weaker females and inflicting life-altering harm , apparently qualifies as brave because , according to Zeigler , “ she was the target of a torrent of hatred I have literally never seen @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as the “ hatred ” Fox may have been subjected to , it ’ s highly unlikely that the social media comments directed his way ever fractured his skull .
The title of bravest athlete would have been much more appropriately bestowed on the biological females who dared to enter the cage with a fighter they had no hope of matching in terms of power and athletic ability .
The Post Millennial posted a commentary on Fox and the women he was in the ring with : Fox , a male to female @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a Coral Gables , FL , MMA fight during which she “ secured a grip on Newsome ’ s head… With her hands gripping the back of Newsome ’ s skull , she delivered a massive knee , bringing her leg up while pulling her opponent ’ s head down .

prisonplanet--2020-01-23--‘Pick Your Damn Sacrifice’: Jordan Peterson’s Wake-Up Call for ‘Old Infants’

Some call Jordan Peterson the most original thinker alive , others call him a guru , and still others a fascist .
Who he is and who he is not remains up for debate , but one thing is clear : his advice for a better-structured way of behaving resonates perfectly with young people who are struggling to find meaning in life .
Sacrifice .
You get to pick your damn sacrifice .
This is Jordan Peterson ’ s weekly dose of wisdom for young people .
“ You don ’ t get to not make one .
You ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ or not , ” he says in a brief cartoonish sermon on YouTube education channel After Skool ( the voice-over is actually a snippet of his 2017 lecture ) .
He explains the idea with a multi-layered Peter Pan analogy , saying that Peter Pan represents the potential that children don ’ t want to give up , while Tick-Tock the Crocodile symbolises the passing of time and Captain Hook is the adult afraid of that time is “ eating ” him up .
“ Peter Pan looks at traumatised Hook and says @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not sacrificing my childhood for that ’ , ” Peterson continues , reminding that the boy ends up in Neverland and sacrifices “ the possibility that held a real relationship with a woman ( Wendy ) who actually wants to grow up ” .
“ Peter Pan has to content himself with Tinkerbell .
She doesn ’ t even exist !
She ’ s like the fairy of porn , ” he adds .
“ She ’ s the substitute for the real thing.
” Peterson uses that metaphor to make the case @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a child gets to sacrifice the potentiality for a singly road leading to one actuality .
“ And I see people like this , and I think it ’ s more and more common in our culture because people can put off maturity without suffering an immediate penalty , but all that happens is the penalty accrues , and then when it finally hits it just wallops you.
” Simply put , Peterson says that while children believe ( and that ’ s not too far off ) that they could do anything @ @ @ @ @ @ @ grow up and do something instead of doing nothing .

prisonplanet--2020-01-23--China Quarantines Second City As Experts Warn It’s Already Too Late To Stop Virus

China Quarantines Second City As Experts Warn It ’ s Already Too Late To Stop Virus As cases of the new coronavirus popped up around the globe , Chinese health officials managed to assuage the worries of the public , and the market , by insisting that the new , deadly coronavirus that emerged late last month in Wuhan had been ‘ contained ’ and that the outbreak would swiftly die down .
Despite imposing some draconian travel bans , it ’ s becoming increasingly clear that this isn ’ t going to happen .
Even after quarantining an entire @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is the 7th largest city in China and larger than any US city – experts are warning that it ’ s too late : The cat is already out of the bag .
But that won ’ t stop Beijing from trying : Now that Wuhan has been effectively cut off , Chinese officials announced another city-wide quarantine on Thursday : Huanggang city , which is in Hubei province and situated close to Wuhan , will suspend outbound train and bus services , as well as all bus services within the city effective @ @ @ @ @ @ @ movie theaters , have been ordered to close until further notice , practically guaranteeing that the quarantine will take a bite out of GDP .
Though even after authorities cut off all flights , Reuters reports that a few airlines were still running flights out of Wuhan .
As the SCMP pointed out , Wuhan , the city at the center of the outbreak , is five times larger than London The decision comes as more than 600 cases of the virus have now been confirmed .
The death toll has been steady @ @ @ @ @ @ @ WHO ponders whether to label the outbreak as a global pandemic risk .
Chinese state broadcasters shared images of Wuhan ’ s ghostly transport hubs , including the Hankou rail station , with all gates barred or blocked .
Highway toll booths were shutting down as guards patrolled major highways .
Inside the city , residents crowded into hospitals and rushed to buy up essential supplies from supermarkets and gas stations .
Interestingly , at least one Western journalist is reporting from Wuhan .
We imagine Beijing allowed ABC access to the city @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the West .
As more barriers rise , one well-known public health expert known for his work on the SARS outbreak warned that the quarantines likely wouldn ’ t be enough to stop the virus from becoming a global pandemic , according to the New York Times .
Dr. Guan Yi , a professor of infectious diseases at the University of Hong Kong who visited Wuhan earlier this week , warned there was a potential for the virus to spread rapidly despite the controls put in place Thursday morning .
“ We @ @ @ @ @ @ @ outbreak , ” said Dr. Guan , who was part of the team that identified the coronavirus that caused the deadly SARS outbreak in 2002 and 2003 .
SARS infected more than 8,000 people and killed nearly 800 .
Dr. Guan also told Caixin , an influential Chinese magazine known for investigative reports , that he had traveled to Wuhan earlier in the week hoping to help track the virus ’ s animal source and control the epidemic .
But he left , he said , feeling “ powerless , very angry.
” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at Columbia University who advised the Chinese government and the World Health Organization during the SARS outbreak , said that infected people outside Wuhan would continue to spread the disease .
“ The horse is already out of the barn , ” he said .
Another expert warned that there could already be as many as 4,000 cases of coronavirus in Wuhan , meaning that the vast majority of infections likely haven ’ t yet been reported .
Meanwhile , regulators around the world are scrambling to cut off flights from Wuhan ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all rail and plane travel out of the city ) : The Philippines is the latest country to cut off flights from the city .
The country ’ s Civil Aeronautics Board added that flights from elsewhere in China would be placed under ‘ strict monitoring ’ , according to CNN Philippines .
Manila , the Philippines ’ crowded capital city , has started handing out 100,000 face masks .
The director of the country ’ s Civil Aeronautics Board explained that , even though Beijing is quarantining entire cities , it ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their own steps to curb the outbreak .
Experts have warned that quarantining an entire city of 11 million would be virtually impossible .
But the nabobs in Beijing refuse to be deterred : Videos circulating on social media show Chinese police setting up barricades across roads leading out of the city .
Anybody in Wuhan who had New Year ’ s travel plans should probably cancel them and ask for a refund .
After a suspected case of coronavirus was discovered in Macau yesterday , officials in the special autonomous region warned @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the territory , a move that would spoil the vacation plans of millions of Chinese planning to travel to Macau for the Chinese New Year .
A second case was reportedly discovered on Thursday .
Across the world , a mildly risk-off mood is once again dominating markets .
That means US stocks are one outbreak headline away from deeper declines .

prisonplanet--2020-01-23--“The 2-Child Policy Has Failed”: China’s Birth Rate Hits Record Low As Growth Slows

But more than six years later , millions of Chinese couples are still unwilling to have a second child .
And that ’ s a huge problem for the Communist Party , whose legitimacy in the eyes of the public depends on its ability to deliver on promises of unbridled growth and prosperity .
And who can blame them ?
Entrenched behaviors die hard , and after the government ’ s brutal treatment of citizens who defied its policy ( which was initially imposed to ward off famine ) , we can sympathize with Chinese who simply believe that having @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with the fundamentals of patriotic socialism with Chinese characteristics .
But as the FT reported this week , issues of culture and perception aren ’ t the only reasons Chinese women are still refusing to have more than one child .
As we reported last week , Chinese GDP growth slowed in 2019 to its weakest level in 29 years… …proving unequivocally that Beijing ’ s massive credit stimulus hasn ’ t done much , if any , good .
Meanwhile , official statistics agencies reported that China ’ s birth rate dropped @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
That ’ s equivalent to 10.5 births per thousand Chinese .
The UN expects China ’ s population , the largest of any country in the world , to start declining by the end of this decade .
It ’ s the latest sign that the ‘ two child policy ’ is now considered an abysmal failure – so much so that party functionaries are apparently unafraid of discussing this fact with the Western press .
Leftists in the US love to complain about the costs associated with having a baby , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ But even in a society where most of the people ’ s health-care needs are met by the state , Chinese citizens are still put off by the cost of care .
Women in China are still reluctant to have children , even with the state promising cash handouts to couples who have two children , because they fear more children will hurt their careers .
As in the west , a growing number of Chinese women are reluctant to have babies because they fear children would hurt their career .
Chinese employers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ workers as many female staff face demotion , if not unemployment , after returning from maternity leave .
“ I don ’ t want to risk my career to have a second child , ” said Lucy Zhang , a Beijing-based newspaper editor with a five-year-old daughter .
“ I have worked so hard to get to where I am now.
” All signs suggest that public sentiment is firmly entrenched against breeding .
Surveys carried out in Shanghai and Shanxi province last year suggested that the number of women willing to have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ % and 25 % .
Furthermore , only 6.7 % of women in Shanghai who are of child-bearing age and also possessed a local residence permit , or hukou , gave birth to a second child in 2018 .
Though they are largely ignored or censored in the mainland press , China ’ s debt burden is already becoming unwieldy .
Last month , a state-owned giant defaulted on a dollar bond , the largest default in two decades .
But the issues of being over-leveraged aren ’ t strictly limited to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are also in trouble .
China bulls in the west argue that the Communist Party exercises such an unshakeable hold on the economy that they simply won ’ t allow for a systemic debt cross-default .
But as the party struggles to contain capital outflows , the country ’ s reliance on monetary stimulus is finally pushing up against the boundaries of what ’ s possible .
To be sure , China isn ’ t the only country struggling with population shrinkage : 27 countries have fewer people now than in 2010 .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ China , to experience declines between now and 2050 .
Most of these are countries have developed economies , a status that China has only recently achieved .
A declining population places inevitable constraints on economic growth .
And as China ’ s momentous rate of growth slows , its economy will come to resemble a frog sitting in a pot of water on a hot stove .
For investors hoping to increase their exposure to China at a time of slowing growth , when the Chinese economy faces myriad difficulties , slowing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ China ’ s domestic government bond market , according to one of WSJ ’ s Heard on the Street columnists .
Numerous studies suggest that a shrinking population should cause real rates to fall .
And of course we have a real-world example of this phenomenon in Japan , where government bond prices have never been higher .
Of course , this doesn ’ t necessarily guarantee that the Chinese bond market will follow suit .
But it ’ s certainly some worthwhile food for thought .

On Wednesday French President Emmanuel Macron toured Jerusalem ’ s Old City with a police escort as he attended the Fifth World Holocaust Forum in Israel .

According to the BBC , “ Mr Macron accused officers of violating @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Crusader-era Church of St Anne , which is considered French territory.
” Video of the Wednesday testy exchange went viral in the hours after it happened .
Macron appeared to be directing his wrath at a uniformed Israeli police officer .
Macron referenced agreed up rules asserting control of the place as French territory : “ I ’ m sorry , but we know the rules .
Nobody , nobody has to provoke , nobody .

” And then he moved forward unimpeded into the church .
A spokeswoman for the Elysée Palace later told CNN the altercation involved a tense exchange between French and Israeli security , likely involving physical shoving , with the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the incident : “ St .

Ahead of the national March for Life , Campus Reform ’ s Eduardo Neret went to George Washington University in Washington D.C. to ask students whether they support women having abortions in the third trimester .

Many students said the taxpayers should pay for abortions because it is a “ health service.

prisonplanet--2020-01-23--Mom Asks Magazine If She Should Buy 13-Year-Old Trans Kid a Sex Toy

Mom Asks Magazine If She Should Buy 13-Year-Old Trans Kid a Sex Toy Slate Magazine ’ s sex column received an unusual question from a mother asking whether she should purchase her 13-year-old transgender child a sex toy .
The column commences with the headline and question : “ My 13-Year-Old Son Wants Me to Buy Him a Sex Toy.
” Then , the mother begins , “ My 13-year-old trans son recently told me that a friend ’ s mom gave him , the friend ( also trans ) , a vibrator.
” She continued , “ I know @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mom is generally wacky and that she does not support her son being transgender and is generally ultra-religious , so I said something like , “ Wow , that surprises me , and it seems kind of intrusive to get that from your mom.
” ’ The mother then explains , “ I was actually wondering if this was some kind of don ’ t-be-trans thing from the mom—like , clitorises are great !
Here , have a vibrator !
Look !
Fun !
I had no idea where this conversation was going.
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ exchange she had with her child : My son replied , “ Yeah.
” Then he went on , “ Well , I guess it ’ s not illegal or anything .
I guess it wouldn ’ t be hard to get one , even for a kid .
They could probably figure it out … ” I wasn ’ t sure where all this was going , so I said again , “ It seems like a weird thing for a mom to give a kid out of nowhere .
I guess @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , I ’ d get it for them.
” At which point my kid made that pleading I-want-a-puppy face , and I said , “ You want a vibrator ?
” And he said , “ Yeah , ” and I said , “ OK , I ’ ll get you one.
” So my questions are , is there any reason a 13-year-old shouldn ’ t have a vibrator ?
I can ’ t think of any special health hazard or anything—is there one ?
I guess I ’ m actually kind @ @ @ @ @ @ @ accepting of his body since I know with dysphoria , for a long time , he just felt like everything “ down there ” on him was gross and wrong .
Am I crazy to think this whole thing is good , maybe ?
Am I crazy to get my kid a vibrator if he wants one ?
The columnist then replied to the mother , explaining that it was natural for a teenager to masturbate and then says , “ By providing a vibrator , you are not merely being sex-positive ; @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is good parenting , if you ask me.
” He then directs the mother to a First Amendment lawyer , before adding a quote from the same lawyer , who said , “ If a law enforcement agency wanted to prohibit the gifting of a toy to one ’ s child , I think there are significant constitutional issues that could be implicated in terms of family privacy rights.
” The column made social media users feel uncomfortable , given the highly sexual nature of the post .
More mothers have entered the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ years as the practice has become increasingly normalized .

Coronavirus Nightmare: Chinese Hospitals Are Turning Away Hordes Of Sick People Because There Is No Room For Them

Coronavirus Nightmare : Chinese Hospitals Are Turning Away Hordes Of Sick People Because There Is No Room For Them The mainstream media in the western world isn ’ t telling you that Chinese hospitals are being absolutely overwhelmed by the number of sick people showing up for treatment .
So the truth is that the official numbers that the Chinese government is putting out are almost meaningless at this point because hordes of sick people are being turned away from the hospitals because there is no room for them .
On Wednesday , Chinese officials took the unprecedented step of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Wuhan , but what good is that going to do if most of the sick people are turned away by the hospitals and sent back to circulate among the general population ?
There are about 11 million people living in Wuhan , and there will only be about 2,000 hospital beds available for those that have caught this mysterious new coronavirus .
And considering the fact that officials are now admitting that this virus is being spread through “ respiratory transmission ” , it looks like this could become a complete and utter @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s start by discussing the latest official numbers .
According to Reuters , Chinese authorities are claiming that there are 571 confirmed cases , 393 “ suspected cases ” and 17 confirmed deaths… What this means is that the official death toll has nearly doubled since yesterday .
But what most people don ’ t know is that literally hundreds of sick people are lining up at hospitals in Wuhan wanting to see a doctor .
The following comes from the South China Morning Post… In one very alarming case , a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ even though he had a fever and other symptoms ” … On one side of the fever ward , a relative of a 55-year-old man said a doctor told her the hospital was full and she should take the man home , even though he had a fever and other symptoms .
“ I almost got down on my knees to beg the doctor to admit him so he could stay in the hospital but the doctor said there was no space , ” she said .
She was one of about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ waiting area , forming long queues outside the three consultation rooms .
While the doctors and nurses were equipped with full-gear protective clothing , many patients only had face masks as they were hooked up to intravenous drips .
Some patients coughed and spat openly in the hallway .
And in another case an x-ray showed that a 48-year-old man had “ a shadow on his lungs ” and he actually “ lived near the Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market ” , but he was turned away anyway .
It is starting to become @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is likely far higher than the Chinese are reporting .
In fact , experts in London are telling us that there is probably thousands of casesat this point… Only time will tell how bad this outbreak will ultimately become , but I think that it is a very troubling sign that the Chinese government has taken the unprecedented step of locking down the entire city of Wuhan… The Chinese government has quarantined the city of Wuhan and plans to shut down the airport and public transportation within hours amid an outbreak of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ virus has been linked to at least 17 deaths and has sickened over 500 others .
Xinhua News Agency said on Thursday that the city had asked people not to leave Wuhan without specific reasons , with the People ’ s Daily newspaper then tweeting that no one would be allowed to leave the city starting at 10 a.m. and that train stations and the airport will shut down .
It said that city buses , subways , ferries and long-distance shuttle buses would also be temporarily closed , citing Wuhan authorities .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ those that are sick , what is that going to accomplish ?
And what makes things even worse is the fact that experts are warning that the incubation period for this virus “ is probably a week ” … So that means that countless others that aren ’ t even exhibiting symptoms yet could be spreading this virus around like wildfire without even realizing that they have it .
And this comes at a really , really bad time , because “ hundreds of millions ” of Chinese citizens will be traveling around @ @ @ @ @ @ @ celebrations in just a few days… Let us hope that this outbreak is not going to be as bad as some of the experts are now projecting .
If you can believe it , one professor at Imperial College London is actually claiming that this virus is “ as deadly as the Spanish flu epidemic ” … I sincerely hope that Professor Neil Ferguson is dead wrong about this .
But we definitely live at a time when we should be expecting the unexpected , and sticking our heads in the sand isn @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at all .
When I first started writing about this mysterious new coronavirus , I emphasized that there was no reason to panic yet .
And we still shouldn ’ t panic , but it has become clear that this outbreak is serious enough that we should all be paying very close attention .
Nobody is quite sure exactly what is going to happen next , but right at this moment things don ’ t look good .

prisonplanet--2020-01-23--Not Ready For Economic Collapse: Only 41 Percent Of Americans Have $1000 To Cover An Emergency

Not Ready For Economic Collapse : Only 41 Percent Of Americans Have $ 1000 To Cover An Emergency We better hope that the U.S. economy holds together in 2020 , because if there is any sort of major economic crisis much of the country is going to be broke almost immediately .
Today , close to half of all Americans are living on the edge financially .
For many , it is out of necessity , but for others it is a conscious choice .
Way too many people out there see no need to build up a substantial financial @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of faith in the system .
They don ’ t think that things will ever get too bad in this country , and so there is no urgency to put funds away for a rainy day .
But even if authorities could somehow prevent an economic downturn from ever happening again , individual emergencies are taking place all around us on a constant basis .
Cars break down , people get sick , and accidents happen .
Unfortunately , most Americans are completely unprepared for some sort of an emergency to strike .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ has discovered that just 41 percent of Americans could cover a $ 1,000 emergency expense using their current savings… So where would everyone else get the money for an emergency ?
Well , most of them would either borrow the money or get it from a relative .
And usually an emergency costs a lot more than $ 1,000 .
Here is more from the Bankrate survey… The bottom line is that most of the country is living paycheck to paycheck , and most Americans are just one small step away from financial @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of Americans suddenly lost their jobs , and because so many of them were living on the edge financially a lot of them suddenly couldn ’ t pay their mortgages .
You would think that we would have learned something from that very painful experience , but we didn ’ t .
So we better hope that the U.S. economy remains relatively stable , because a serious downturn would be very ugly .
Unfortunately , an increasing number of experts are warning that our luck is about to run out .
In fact @ @ @ @ @ @ @ warned that we could potentially be facing another “ Great Depression ” … That certainly doesn ’ t sound good at all .
Here in the United States , most people have been choosing to ignore all the signs that the economy is starting to really slow down .
But as stores and businesses continue to close down all over the nation , it is going to become very difficult to ignore all of the empty buildings .
For example , Macy ’ s just announced that they will be closing nearly 30 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mall retailers in the entire country has just announced that they will be closing 91 stores… Of course I could go on and on all day .
Here are just a couple more examples of major retailers that are closing down stores… But despite all of the evidence to the contrary , the irrational optimists would still have us believe that America has entered a new era of tremendous economic prosperity .
I actually wish that was true .
Sadly , decades of exceedingly bad decisions are catching up with us in a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ course we continue to steamroll toward a date with destiny .
Right now I am going to share with you the number one piece of advice that I give to everyone who asks about preparing for the great storm that is ahead .
When things get bad , you are going to need money .
I know that sounds exceedingly simple , but obviously most of the country is choosing not to do this .
Instead , most of the country is surviving from month to month with barely any money in their @ @ @ @ @ @ @ strikes they are going to be looking for someone else to rescue them .
We have had more than a decade since the crisis of 2008 to prepare for the next one , but most people are acting as if the next one will never arrive .
Unfortunately , the truth is that the next crisis has already started , and businesses all over the nation are going bankrupt .
But most Americans won ’ t realize what is happening until things really start getting out of hand , and by then it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ any sort of preparations .

prisonplanet--2020-01-23--Rand Paul: 45 Republicans Prepared to Dismiss Charges Against President

Sen. Rand Paul ( R-KY ) said on Wednesday that 45 GOP senators are prepared to dismiss the charges against President Trump and effectively end the Senate impeachment trial .
The Kentucky senator told the Washington Post on day two of the Senate impeachment trial that 45 Republicans are ready to dismiss the charges against Trump .
( Republicans hold a 53-47 majority in the upper chamber . )
He estimated that “ five to eight ” want to “ hear a little more.
” “ There are 45 , with about five to eight wanting to hear a little @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
“ I still would like to dismiss it , but there aren ’ t the votes to do it just yet.
” However , Paul said he is not pushing the point just yet .
“ I will push it at some point , ” he told the paper , adding , “ The more Adam Schiff speaks , the more we become unified.
” Paul has openly rejected the Democrats ’ calls for additional witnesses and has issued a political threat to his GOP colleagues , in the event they side @ @ @ @ @ @ @ against Hunter Biden , you ’ re voting to lose your election , basically .
Seriously .
That ’ s what it is , ” Paul said , according to Politico .
He continued : If you don ’ t want to vote and you think you ’ re going to have to vote against Hunter Biden , you should just vote against witnesses , period .
My first preference would be to be done with it as soon as possible and not to have any witnesses .

Soros-Linked Group Joins MSM To Censor And Purge Climate Change Skeptics On YouTube The censorship continues , as a George Soros-linked group has joined forces with the mainstream media to ensure climate skeptics are silenced on YouTube .
The group Avaaz , left-leaning non-profit group , published a report on January 16th on its website that claims YouTube is “ profiting by broadcasting misinformation ” to millions of people by giving climate denial videos too much prominence .
Independent mainstream media outlets are engaging in a politically-motivated campaign to force YouTube to demonetize and hide any video that denies climate @ @ @ @ @ @ @ scientific evidence revealed in the videos , if one doesn ’ t submit to the religion of climate change , they will be silenced if Avaaz has anything to do about it .
The report is an undisguised intimidation campaign , as not only does it list major advertizers who are running ads on videos that question the legitimacy of the threat climate change poses for humanity , but it explicitly calls for them to put pressure on the platform as a means of putting an end to the so-called disinformation .
Despite @ @ @ @ @ @ @ many mainstream sites had lengthy articles posted not long after that , which featured quotes from those who worked on the report .
Timings that suggest select websites were given early access , making it clear what agenda is being pushed , more so as they all tout the same talking points .
Vice , Time , Gizmodo , The Verge , and countless other news entities want YouTube to punish creators who don ’ t toe the “ correct ” ideological line .
The objective is to demonetize , and thus censor @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be less inclined to work on the content that they won ’ t be able to profit from .
Nell Greenburg , a campaign director at Avaaz , claims the report isn ’ t about removing content and censorship , however , that contradicts the report ’ s own messaging .
There is a clear attempt to have content hidden as the report calls into question the promotion of such videos in the “ up next ” box on the site .
It ’ s semantics at this point , but hiding videos @ @ @ @ @ @ @ even trying to share their thoughts .
It is an indirect way of removing “ wrongthink.
” The official narrative is the only narrative and when it comes to the domination of others , these people want to be at the top .
Basic human rights are under attack from all sorts of groups .
And it is fairly safe to say that YouTube will give into the demands of this group , silencing and demonetizing anyone caught not parroting the Orwellian narrative the ruling class hands down .
This situation ultimately raises @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , should have the power to dictate what others can create .
Regardless of one ’ s personal views on the matter , there ’ s no denying that bold claims have been made about the climate that later were disproven .
Little is , as yet , set in stone , and content that lands on any one side of the debate should be free to exist .
If a creator is making videos people are watching , their hard work shouldn ’ t be thrown in the bin simply because an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the world ’ s richest people and his proxies says so .
It is not the role of billionaires and their pet projects to play babysitter .

Experts blame humans starting blazes for ‘ major shift ’ in cause of US wildfires : Fires started by people rather than lightning or natural causes are becoming the ‘ new norm ’ The number of human-caused wildfires has increased in recent decades – sparking a shift in what is ‘ normal ’ for the devastating blazes , research has found .

Trump Says Middle-Class Tax Cut To Be Announced Within Three Months President Trump told The Wall Street Journal on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum in Davos , Switzerland , that the White House plans to unveil a new tax-cut proposal for the middle class in approximately 90 days .
“ We ’ re talking a fairly substantial … middle-class tax cut that ’ ll be subject to taking back the House and obviously keeping the Senate and keeping the White House , ” Trump said .
He declined to elaborate more on the specifics of the plan .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ a middle-class tax cut since the 2018 midterm election , and more recently since the 2020 election year has begun .
White House National Economic Council Director Larry Kudlow said last week that tax cut 2.0 could be unveiled in the summer months .
Kudlow said the White House is considering a payroll tax cut and an expansion of the earned income tax credit .
He said the new tax cut could spur consumer growth and help the middle class prosper .
However , Trump told reporters back in 2017 that tax cuts @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the great gifts to the middle-income people of this country that they ’ ve ever gotten for Christmas ” – it turned out that tax cuts funded by taxpayer debt allowed mega-corporations to repatriate hundreds of billions of dollars , not for CapEx purposes like what was promised , but rather a massive stock buyback binge .
With the effectiveness of the first tax cut waning , Trump has likely been advised by his economic team that the manufacturing recession has triggered an employment slowdown that could start damaging consumer spending , which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
The next round of supply-side tax cuts should be viewed as “ emergency tax cuts ” because the “ greatest economy ever ” is continuing to decelerate and could be seen as a last-ditch effort by the administration to push off the recession for another couple quarters .
