prisonplanet--2020-01-23--70th Anniversary Of Orwell’s Death Sees ‘Newspeak’ Censorship Soaring

It is a dangerous practice : Government , corporations , universities , news outlets and “ experts ” curating our information so that we can not access , see or believe that which they determine we should not access , see or believe .
If anyone had suggested to Orwell , or the American founders , that we would invite this sort of manipulation and control of our information , they wouldn ’ t have believed it .
The idea was first introduced on the national stage by President Obama in October of 2016 right before the presidential election .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ in and “ curate ” our information in the “ Wild , Wild West ” internet environment .
Nobody had been clamoring for any such thing .
So the challenge for those who came up with this bright idea– in my opinion in an effort to control news and information– was to convince the public to accept something very un-American : their information being shaped and censored by others .
This feat was accomplished in concert with the anti-fake news effort , started in September 2016 through a nonprofit called First Draft .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ , owned by Alphabet , run by Eric Schmidt , a major Hillary Clinton funder and supporter . )
The anti-fake news effort was also an effort by special interests to step in and control news and internet information .
In a relatively short period of time , they had us .
Curate our information , we cried .
Block “ untrue ” news reports and blogs !
Fact check political ads and certain politicians !
Remove selected social media accounts !
We invited special interests and political players to control our information @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s best for us .
No longer can we bear or do we deserve to hear various views and interpretations of facts .
The curators decide which views are right and true They universally declare the others to be debunked or discredited .
Never mind that the appointed curators are advancing their own views or special interests .
No matter that the corporations employing the fact checks are looking out for their owners or corporate interests ; or currying favor with government regulators— sometimes even doing the government ’ s bidding .
From @ @ @ @ @ @ @ news outlets , social media and other corporations are hardly parties that should be trusted to oversee “ curation ” efforts .
History is littered with examples of them being wrong , conflicted or providing false information .
One of the best most recent examples is the now disproven accusation that Donald Trump was working with Russia President Vladimir Putin .
The wild conspiracy claims dominated the news for more than two years .
The curators told us there was hard evidence .
It would all be revealed soon !
These views and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was censored and criticized as “ debunked ” by the curators ?
Social media , news reports and commentary that correctly questioned the conspiracies and pointed to malfeasance by the intelligence community .
In the end , of course , the curators were wrong ; the “ debunked ” skeptics were correct .
A more recent example is the effort by curators to label , as debunked , reporting by Politico and others on Ukraine interference in the 2016 U.S. election .
It turns out there are far more supportable facts and admissions @ @ @ @ @ @ @ than on Russia interference .
What ’ s more , those who have correctly pointed to Ukraine ’ s alleged role in 2016 have almost universally acknowledged there was Russia tampering , as well– that both are true .
But the curators have falsely framed the facts , claiming that “ conspiracy theorists ” say Ukraine rather than Russia interfered in the 2016 campaign .
In this way , the curators aren ’ t just curating , they are tampering with the facts .
Altering reality .
And why wouldn ’ t they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ free .
And a third example is the stranglehold on information the vaccine industry and their advocates have on information about vaccine side effects and links to autism .
I recently reported on a sworn affidavit signed by Dr. Andrew Zimmerman , a world renowned pro-vaccine pediatric neurologist who served as the government ’ s expert witness in vaccine autism cases .
He was , at the time , defending vaccine companies on behalf of the U.S. government .
But in the affidavit , Dr. Zimmerman said that after initially believing vaccines are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ aware of advances in science revealing that vaccines do cause autism in rare cases , after all .
He goes on to testify that government lawyers from the Department of Justice hid this fact from families and the court , and misrepresented his opinion in cases fought by parents of vaccine-injured autistic children .
People are free to dismiss Dr. Zimmerman ’ s findings , of course , but the fact that he signed the affidavit it is not in dispute and the information should not be censored .
However , Facebook ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ improperly flagged this reporting as untrue .
Either these science experts are proxies for the vaccine industry or are sorely uninformed .
Either way , they are not qualified to determine fact vs. fiction on your social media feed .
All the while , misleading , incomplete and false information about vaccine safety is routinely promoted as “ true.
” • We should remember that the government incorrectly determined security guard Richard Jewell was responsible for the Atlanta Olympic bombing .
( He was actually a hero who helped move people away from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ) • The FBI falsified the polygraph of a Chinese scientist to make it look like he was a spy .
• Former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper falsely testified to Congress that there was no mass surveillance on millions of Americans .
• Social media videos were used out of context to defame a Catholic high school student as if he had aggressively confronted a Native American .
• Rape allegations in a landmark Rolling Stone article turned out to be untrue .
• New York Times award winning reporter Jayson @ @ @ @ @ @ @ • Corporations have been wrong or misled us on information about cigarettes and cancer , food safety , the dangers of Ford Explorers equipped with Firestone tires , x-rays , asbestos , medicine and vaccines pulled off the market for safety reasons and countless other topics .
• Charities such as the Red Cross have been found guilty of misusing funds and providing false information .
• Facebook has gotten caught misleading consumers and advertisers .
• Social media company insiders have blown the whistle on biased and dishonest practices at their firms @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , media and other curators sometimes fact check as “ incorrect ” matters that are simply matters of opinion .
These are the people we are trusting to be arbiters of what information we should be allowed to see and believe .
Without alternate information that some of these powerful interests initially claimed to be wrong or “ debunked , ” the facts might never have been discovered .
Sometimes , the reality about serious issues of public importance starts with a single whistleblower , a patient ’ s story , or a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have the power to make it where we can not find this information , the truth risks staying hidden .
We would live a controlled , Orwellian existence , knowing only precisely what they wish for us to know , thinking only that which they say is the right way to think , with contrary information dropped down the memory hole like it never even existed .
My own view is that , in general , information that is not deemed to be illegal should be accessible .
Social media already has all @ @ @ @ @ @ @ filter out objectionable posts , if they wish to use them .
If people want a vested interest to “ fact check ” for them , they should be able to opt into that service .
But the rest of us should be left alone .
The magic of the internet is that it puts information in the hands of most anyone rather than just the powerful .
Allowing that information to be controlled , manipulated , filtered , improperly discredited or erased is a slippery slope fraught with peril… .

Professor Warns New Coronavirus Has Same Kill Rate as the Spanish Flu A professor has warned that the new deadly coronavirus which originated in China has the same kill rate as the Spanish flu , which claimed the lives of 20-50 million people in 1918 .
Fears of widespread contagion are growing after hundreds of cases were confirmed and 17 people died .
The virus originated in an animal market in Wuhan , China and has now spread to numerous other countries , including the United States .
The virus has a 2 % death rate , compared to 0.1 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ every 50 people who are infected , one will statistically die .
“ This [ 2019-nCoV ’ s death rate ] could be 2 % , similar to Spanish flu , ” said Professor Neil Ferguson from Imperial College London .
“ Novel viruses spread much faster because we have no immunity , ” he added .
Let ’ s do some math here .
In 1918 , the population of the earth was just under 2 billion .
Spanish flu killed around 20-50 million , around 2.5 % of the population .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ population of 7.8 billion , a similar kill rate would take out 195 million people .
Fatalities are occurring as a result of of pneumonia and there is “ no effective anti-viral , ” according to Professor Peter Horby from the University of Oxford .
Hopefully now that the Chinese government has banned all travel in Wuhan and shut down the airport , the spread of the virus will be massively contained .

Soybean Oil Found to Cause Genetic Changes in the Brain Affecting Depression and Obesity Impacts gene that codes for production of oxytocin .
A new study has found that the consumption of soybean oil , one of the most common edible oils in the western diet in recent decades , causes genetic changes that negatively impact how the brain deals with depression and obesity .
According to IFL Science , the increase in popularity of soybean oil “ has coincided with an alarming escalation in metabolic conditions like diabetes , insulin resistance , and obesity , and a new study @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the way that soybean oil causes genetic changes in the brain.
” Writing in the journal Endocrinology , scientists sought to understand how soybean oil impacts the expression of genes in the hypothalamus , the area of the brain that regulates metabolism , inflammation and neurological issues .
Mice were split into three groups , with one receiving soybean oil , one receiving soybean oil with linoleic acid removed and one receiving a diet rich in coconut oil .
Soybean oil was found to modify the expression of around 100 different genes in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ schizophrenia , depression , and Alzheimer ’ s disease .
The gene most affected was one that codes for the production of a hormone called oxytocin , the so-called love hormone , disruptions to which have been linked to depression and autism .

Mice that were fed soybean oil developed glucose intolerance , while those fed on coconut oil encountered no such problems .
Researchers found that removing both linoleic acid and stigmasterol from the soybean oil produced @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the mice .
While further research is necessary to pin down the ingredient in soybean oil causing these harmful effects , study author Poonamjot Deol of the University of California , Riverside was confident in declaring , “ If there ’ s one message I want people to take away , it ’ s this : reduce consumption of soybean oil.

prisonplanet--2020-01-22--Historian Slams Greta Thunberg: “I Don’t See Her in Beijing or Delhi”

Historian Slams Greta Thunberg : “ I Don ’ t See Her in Beijing or Delhi ” Why are the biggest polluters being ignored ?
Historian Niall Ferguson has slammed Greta Thunberg ’ s climate change hypocrisy at Davos , asking why “ I don ’ t see her in Beijing or Delhi.
” Teenage environmentalist Thunberg gave another hysterical speech at the global confab yesterday in which she claimed , “ Our house is still on fire .
Your inaction is fueling the flames by the hour .
We are still telling you to panic , and to act @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all else.
” “ We don ’ t want these things done in 2050 , 2030 , or even 2021 , ” Thunberg said .
“ We want this done now.
” Ferguson , Senior Fellow at Stanford University ’ s Hoover Institution , questioned why Thunberg isn ’ t directing her message to the biggest polluters on the planet .
“ 60 % of CO2 emissions since Greta Thunberg was born is attributable to China… but nobody talks about that .
They talk as if its somehow Europeans and Americans who are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ frustrating because it doesn ’ t get to the heart of the matter , ” said Ferguson .
“ If you ’ re serious about slowing CO2 emissions and temperatures rising it has to be China and India you constrain , ” he added , noting that while Greta travels to New York and Davos , “ I don ’ t see her in Beijing or Delhi.
” Ferguson is right .
Take the UK for example .
“ Britain ’ s CO2 emissions peaked in 1973 and are now at their lowest @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Spectator .
“ Air pollution has plummeted since then , with sulphur dioxide levels down 95 per cent .
Britain ’ s population is rising but our energy consumption peaked in 2001 and has since fallen by 19 per cent.
” This global pollution map published by the WHO perfectly illustrates Ferguson ’ s point .
Even if you believe wholeheartedly in the decidedly shaky science behind man-made global warming , the west is more than doing its part .
But we ’ re the ones being lectured to not travel , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ despite already being in massive demographic decline .
Meanwhile , Africa , India and China continue to wantonly pollute and none of Greta Thunberg ’ s fury or the attention of the media is ever directed their way .
On top of this , Greta continues to have her message amplified by the likes of Prince ‘ 4 private jet trips in 11 days ’ Harry and Arnold ‘ garage full of tanks and muscle cars ’ Schwarzenegger .

prisonplanet--2020-01-22--German Language Police Group Decides to ‘UnWord’ the Term ‘Climate Hysteria’

A German panel of linguists which decides on a new word to ‘ ban ’ every year has announced the ‘ un-wording ’ of the term “ climate hysteria ” because it undermines propaganda about man-made global warming .
First of all , just let it sink in that there is an organization comprised of linguists which exists solely to ‘ ban ’ words and terms that they don ’ t like .
Their action is known as ‘ Un-word of the year ’ .
They ’ re literally attempting to re-create 1984 ’ s Newspeak dictionary , which shrank @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to eliminate language and limit free thought and free speech , making it harder for the plebs to vocalize their opposition to The Party .
As you may have suspected , every word or term already ‘ banned ’ by the group in recent years are ones used by conservatives to challenge leftist political tropes .
Imagine my shock .
Terms ‘ un-worded ’ in recent years include “ alternative facts , ” “ do-gooder , ” “ Lügenpresse ” ( liar press ) and “ welfare tourism ” ( referring to “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ welfare system.
” ) The panel says it exists to discourage the use of words that “ discriminate against societal groups or may be euphemistic , disguising or misleading.
” Perhaps nervous that more Germans appear to be rejecting the cult of man-made climate change despite vociferous propaganda , this year the panel has chosen to ‘ un-word ’ the term “ climate hysteria.
” According to the panel , which contains no scientists , the term “ defames climate protection efforts and the climate protection movement , and discredits important discussions about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Dictionary as thin as possible in hopes that this will narrow our range of thought is a progressive priority , ” writes Dave Blount .
“ Any word or term that can be used to undermine leftist ideology will eventually be removed from the permissible vocabulary .
That ’ s the point of having a Newspeak Dictionary.

Denver Post Columnist Says He Was Fired For His Belief There Are Only Two Sexes Refused to “ use only the words mandated by the perpetually offended.
” The Denver Post ’ s most read columnist says he was fired by the newspaper for his belief that there are only two sexes .
In a Facebook post , Jon Caldara said he was dismissed because his writing was too “ insensitive.
” “ My column is not a soft voiced , sticky sweet NPR-styled piece which employs the language now mandated by the victim-centric , identity politics driven media , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be the last straw for my column was my insistence that there are only two sexes and my frustration that to be inclusive of the transgendered ( even that word isn ’ t allowed ) we must lose our right to free speech , ” he added .
The columnist said that he refused to bend the knee to “ newspeak ” and declined to “ use only the words mandated by the perpetually offended , ” adding that conservatives are now mandated to “ use the language of their ideological opponents.
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ of gay marriage , had LGBT friends and didn ’ t care who used what bathroom , but that wasn ’ t enough .
Refusing to adopt the language of ‘ woke ’ ideological storm troopers who now patrol the boundaries of acceptable language is a cardinal sin worthy of cancellation .
“ People from this community have rights which we must protect , ” wrote Caldara .
“ But to force us to use inaccurate pronouns , to force us to teach our kids that there are more than two sexes , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in a dress , well , not a man in a dress violates our right of speech.
” Caldara concluded his Facebook post by asserting that this policing of language will lead to a repeat of 2016 and Donald Trump ’ s re-election .
“ Caldara ’ s column revealed that he does not agree with the declaration by the Associated Press that biology be damned , sex and gender are not binary .
Nor does he approve of a Colorado law requiring elementary school children to be indoctrinated with transgender dogma .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ , now that this thought criminal has been deplatformed , ” comments the Moonbattery blog .
Quite what Caldara was still doing working within the mainstream media given his belief in the value of “ free speech ” is a mystery given much of the media is now devoted to smearing and deplatform those who exercise it .

Feminist Author Calls on Germans to Stop Having Babies to Save the Planet Newsflash ; They ’ re already not having babies .
Feminist author Verena Brunschweiger has called on Germans to stop having babies to save the planet , despite the fact that the country ’ s native fertility rate is already at just 1.4 children per woman .
In an interview with Neue Osnabrücker Zeitung , Brunschweiger warns “ we are on the brink of ecological collapse ” and that the only solution is “ the renunciation of one ’ s own reproduction.
” Claiming that this topic @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Germany , ” Brunschweiger , who herself is childless , remarked , “ It is…above all because of the masses of people that we have such big environmental problems .
We are just too many and hardly anyone wants to limit themselves .
If we were fewer people and restricted ourselves , we could save something.
” Brunschweiger claimed that she felt like she was “ in Saudi Arabia in the 14th century ” when trying to voice her message , but that she had received support from a lot of women .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ Germans despite the fact that the country ’ s native fertility rate is around 1.4 children per woman , well below the necessary 2.1 replacement rate .
“ Since 1972 , Germany has not seen a single year in which the number of newborns has exceeded the number of deaths , ” reports Arutz Sheva .
Despite her passion for population reduction , Brunschweiger ’ s “ virtue-signalling has not yet reached the continent of Africa , ” reports Free West Media .
“ Africa ’ s child population will reach 1 billion @ @ @ @ @ @ @ child population among all continents.
” Indeed , sub-Saharan Africa will produce the most births for the rest of the century , so if Brunschweiger really cared about lowering the global population to save the planet , she would be telling Africans to stop breeding , which would of course be racist .
And after all , to progressives it ’ s better to be dead than called racist !

Lawyers Claim Some Weinstein Accusers “ Bragged About Having Sex With Him ” President Trump ’ s impeachment isn ’ t the only major trial that Americans will be following in January .
Now that the jury has been picked ( sadly , Gigi Hadid didn ’ t make the cut , much to the disappointment of the New York Post ) and the defense has succeeded in limiting the number of young , white women on the jury to just 2 , it ’ s time for what some are hyping as the next trial of the century .

According to ABC News , Weinstein ’ s team @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ intimate email correspondence ” between the former mogul and his accusers – emails that they say would paint a wildly different picture of their relationships with the defendant .
Some of the emails even show that some of the very same women accusing Weinstein of rape once bragged to friends about being in a sexual relationship with the mogul .

In addition , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Restructuring Act ( H.R .

@ @ @ @ @ @ @ , weak-willed , and cowardly engine of the status quo , the Republican Party has found new life under President Donald Trump , whose combative personality and dogged commitment to the interests of the American people give inspiration to a party that not long ago seemed destined for destruction .

prisonplanet--2020-01-22--‘Those Are Voters We Already Have’: Trump Campaign Manager Brushes Off Immigration As A Top Issue

‘ Those Are Voters We Already Have ’ : Trump Campaign Manager Brushes Off Immigration As A Top Issue In an interview Monday with Lou Dobbs on Fox Business , Trump 2020 campaign manager Brad Parscale dismissed immigration as a top issue for President Trump to run on in 2020 because he believes immigration patriots are voters Trump “ already ” has .
Running on the economy and “ national security ” sounds a lot like George Bush ’ s 2004 campaign .
Parscale has been recycling old Bush memes from 2004 to attack Trump ’ s opponents as terrorist @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be described as “ cringe.
” Trump won in 2016 by some 80,000 votes running as a transformational candidate who promised to do everything for everyone .
Other than his promises to Israel , for whom he has gone above and beyond for , he wasn ’ t successful at following through on much .
He failed to repeal Obamacare , failed to pull out of the Middle East and failed to build a wall .
I recognize doing things for Israel is easy politically while repealing Obamacare , pulling out of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ more difficult but those last three were the major issues he ran on and he has little to show for it .
Just assuming all the people who voted for him in 2016 will come out and vote for him again without having their issues addressed sounds to me like a pipe dream .
Just yesterday I saw Axios claiming the Trump administration is readying a plan to restrict birthright citizenship — the same thing they reported before the 2018 midterms which never materialized despite only requiring a simple executive order and fighting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ seems to be serious overconfidence on Parscale ’ s part due to the Democrats being so crazy and Trump potentially raising $ 2 billion for his reelection campaign .
I would remind Mr. Parscale that Hillary Clinton ’ s team spent $ 1.2 billion while Trump ’ s team spent $ 600 million and she still lost .
Trump is going into 2020 having allowed his biggest supporters from 2015-2016 to be deplatformed , debanked and systematically suppressed by Big Tech .
His army of hilarious memers have all moved on and now @ @ @ @ @ @ @ opposed him when it mattered in 2015-2016 ( Charlie Kirk , Ben Shapiro , TPUSA etc . )
but support what he ’ s doing for Israel and the Conservatism Inc agenda he pursued of tax cuts for the wealthy and deregulation .
Trump ’ s people would be wise to heed Tucker Carlson ’ s repeated warnings — which he reiterated Monday night — and not arrogantly assume the issues which drove Trump to victory in 2016 are now irrelevant .

prisonplanet--2020-01-22--Report: Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos Had Phone Hacked by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman

A forensic investigation determined Amazon founder Jeff Bezos was sent malware by Saudi crown prince Mohammed bin Salman through a video file on WhatsApp in 2018 , according to a report from the Guardian .
MBS then appears to have worked with the National Inquirer ’ s David Pecker to blackmail Besoz by threatening to reveal his “ d**k pics ” and infidelity with Lauren Sanchez .
The motive seems to be that MBS , who has been moving aggressively to ditch Saudi Arabia ’ s Islamic ways and embrace Western prog-globalism to boost his nation ’ s riches , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ undermined by the Washington Post exposing the Saudi ’ s grizzly murder of Jamal Khashoggi .
From The Guardian , “ Amazon boss Jeff Bezos ’ s phone ‘ hacked by Saudi crown prince ' ” : The Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos had his mobile phone “ hacked ” in 2018 after receiving a WhatsApp message that had apparently been sent from the personal account of the crown prince of Saudi Arabia , sources have told the Guardian .
The encrypted message from the number used by Mohammed bin Salman is believed to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the phone of the world ’ s richest man , according to the results of a digital forensic analysis .
This analysis found it “ highly probable ” that the intrusion into the phone was triggered by an infected video file sent from the account of the Saudi heir to Bezos , the owner of the Washington Post .
The two men had been having a seemingly friendly WhatsApp exchange when , on 1 May of that year , the unsolicited file was sent , according to sources who spoke to the Guardian @ @ @ @ @ @ @ amounts of data were exfiltrated from Bezos ’ s phone within hours , according to a person familiar with the matter .
The Guardian has no knowledge of what was taken from the phone or how it was used .
[ … ] Trump and his son-in-law Jared Kushner have maintained close ties with the crown prince despite a US intelligence finding — reportedly with a medium–to–high degree of certainty — that Mohammed bin Salman ordered Khashoggi ’ s murder .
As a reminder , the now-disgraced ex-CEO of WeWork , Adam Neumann @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bin Salman and he himself were the three people who “ would save the world.
” Neumann received billions in funding for his Ponzi scheme-esque business and was bailed out by SoftBank , which received tens of billions of dollars from Saudi Arabia ’ s sovereign wealth fund .
Jared Kushner ’ s company Cadre tried to similarly cash in by striking a major deal with SoftBank in 2018 but it fell through due to SoftBank wanting to avoid additional accusations of corruption .
As VICE reported in November 2019 , Jeffrey Epstein @ @ @ @ @ @ @ appears to have been working to compromise Bezos and those close to him in 2018 .

” Given that the market sold bats and snakes , with scientists linking snakes to the virus , and Chinese people consume both as food , that explanation still remains the most likely .

Virginia Senate Passes Red Flag Gun Seizure Bill Two Days After Second Amendment Rally The leftist cultural imperialists who took control of Virginia last election thanks to immigration and demographic shifts are going full steam ahead with their plan to fundamentally transform the state into a mirror image of San Francisco .
The Virginia state Senate voted Wednesday to advance a “ red flag law ” bill , one of many gun safety measures Democrats are looking to move through the state Legislature after taking control of both chambers .
The bill — SB 240 , also known as an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ procedure for authorities , including law enforcement officers and attorneys , to apply for an emergency substantial risk order to prohibit “ a person who poses a substantial risk of injury to himself or others from purchasing , possessing , or transporting a firearm.

prisonplanet--2020-01-24--SHOCK: Formerly Hispanic Miami Police Officer SUSPENDED For Identifying As Black!

SHOCK : Formerly Hispanic Miami Police Officer SUSPENDED For Identifying As Black !
Transracialphobic bigotry is hitting record levels in America and yet the media and Democratic Party are silent !
Miami police Capt .
Javier Ortiz , the formerly Hispanic police officer who chose to identify as a black male while his department was being subject to a “ racial equality ” probe , was suspended on Wednesday in an act of unadulterated racial hatred !
Where is Julian Castro to condemn this bigotry ?
!
From the Miami New Times , “ Miami Cop Javier Ortiz Suspended With @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” : Days after claiming he was a black man at a Miami City Commission meeting , Capt .
Javier Ortiz was suspended with pay today , the Miami Police Department ( MPD ) informed New Times .
“ We can confirm that Captain J. Ortiz has been relieved of duty with pay , ” spokesperson Michael Vega said via email .
Late last year , the Miami Community Police Benevolent Association ( MCPBA ) unearthed records showing Ortiz had claimed he was a white Hispanic man when he applied to work at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2017 on paperwork provided to New Times that he was a black man .
The U.S. Department of Justice was monitoring the department at the time , and black officers accused Ortiz [ … ] of faking his race to boost the department ’ s diversity statistics .
At a city commission meeting last Friday , the MCPBA demanded Chief Jorge Colina address racism in his department or resign .
It ’ s not surprising the system would conspire to hold another black man down !
During that meeting , Ortiz stood up @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was “ a black male ” and said that , after finding out he had black family members , the “ one-drop rule ” means he ’ s actually black .
He also said he was “ a black male , or a Negro , ” while staring directly at the city ’ s only black commissioner , Keon Hardemon .
Over the weekend , the Miami-Dade County chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People ( NAACP ) called Ortiz ’ s comments “ downright disturbing ” and has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Times asked MPD its exact reasons for suspending the former union chief , but the department declined to comment further .
We know the reason : racism .
It turns out this innocent black man is more based than anyone could imagine ( so of course he has to be destroyed ! )
: Ortiz is far and away the most controversial cop in Miami .
As the former head of the Miami Fraternal Order of Police ( FOP ) from 2011 to 2017 , he fought police oversight at every turn , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his free time defending cops who ’ ve killed black people .
He once drew demonic eyes and teeth on a mugshot of a black defendant .
He also infamously tried to start a nationwide Beyoncé boycott after claiming her 2016 Super Bowl performance was anti-police .
He has tweeted to support the officers who ’ ve killed Michael Brown , Alton Sterling , and event 12-year-old Tamir Rice , whom Ortiz called a “ thug.
” So a black man is not allowed to be a conservative ?

A ‘High-Level Exercise’ Conducted 3 Months Ago Showed That A Coronavirus Pandemic Could Kill 65 Million People

We are being told that the coronavirus outbreak which is currently escalating at an exponential rate probably started with a snake .
Perhaps that is true , but a lot of researchers are now pointing out some really odd “ coincidences ” regarding this outbreak .
For example , China ’ s very first biosafety-level-4 lab is located just 20 miles away from where this outbreak supposedly originated .
And a news report about this lab from a few years ago specifically stated that it would be “ studying the pathogen that causes SARS ” .
Of course SARS was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a “ new coronavirus ” has been unleashed in the only Chinese city where coronavirus research was being conducted .
I will discuss this more later in the article , but first I want to talk about the very odd “ coincidence ” that a U.S. patent for “ an attenuated coronavirus ” was granted not too long ago .
As you can see right here , the patent was filed in July 2015 and it was granted in November 2018 .
So it has just been a little over a year since @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a summary of this patent , this attenuated coronavirus “ may be used as a vaccine for treating and/or preventing a disease ” … This patent was filed by the Pilbright Institute , and as Stefan Stanford has pointed out , some of the major backers of the Pilbright Institute include the World Health Organization , the European Commission , and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation .
Okay , that is more than just a little bit weird .
Could it be possible that researchers at the biosafety-level-4 lab in Wuhan were @ @ @ @ @ @ @ We don ’ t have an answer to that question , but what we do know is that this biosafety-level-4 lab was the very first one to be constructed in China .
According to an article that was published by Nature in February 2017 , this lab would be working “ with the world ’ s most dangerous pathogens ” once it opened… A laboratory in Wuhan is on the cusp of being cleared to work with the world ’ s most dangerous pathogens .
The move is part of a plan to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ( BSL-4 ) labs across the Chinese mainland by 2025 , and has generated much excitement , as well as some concerns .
Some scientists outside China worry about pathogens escaping , and the addition of a biological dimension to geopolitical tensions between China and other nations .
But Chinese microbiologists are celebrating their entrance to the elite cadre empowered to wrestle with the world ’ s greatest biological threats .
There are less than 60 such labs on the entire planet , and they are equipped with cutting edge equipment .
The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lab cost approximately 44 million dollars to build , and the Nature article specifically mentioned that future plans for the facility included “ studying the pathogen that causes SARS ” .
In other words , coronavirus research was to be conducted in this lab .
Perhaps it is just a wild coincidence that the coronavirus outbreak began in the only city in China with a biosafety-level-4 lab that was conducting coronavirus research .
An article that was just posted by LiveScience seems to think that this is actually a fortuitous development… As an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ only one lab in the country meets the required biosafety standards needed to study the new disease .
The lab happens to sit in the center of Wuhan , the city where the newly identified coronavirus first appeared , according to the , an Indian news outlet .
The facility , known as the Wuhan National Biosafety Laboratory , is housed within the Chinese Academy of Sciences and was specifically designed to help Chinese scientists “ prepare for and respond to future infectious disease outbreaks , ” according to a published by the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ( CDC ) .
Nobody in the mainstream media is likely to connect the dots , and we shouldn ’ t expect them to do so .
But it is very interesting to note that the SARS virus “ has escaped from high-level containment facilities in Beijing multiple times ” … Of course those facilities were not biosafety-level-4 labs , but it does show a pattern of past negligence that is definitely quite alarming .
The Wuhan National Biosafety Laboratory is located approximately 20 miles away from the Huanan Seafood Market where this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ had absolutely nothing to do with this outbreak and instead a really sick snake unleashed this pathogen on the world .
You can believe that if you want , but for many of us the “ coincidences ” are starting to become too startling to ignore .

US To Deploy Anti-Missile Systems In Iraq As Trump Downplays Troop Injuries As “ Headaches ” President Trump was dismissive of widespread reports of eleven US soldiers sustaining head injuries as a result of the Jan.8 Iranian ballistic missile attack on Ayn al-Asad airbase in Iraq .

Fox News previously reported that the U.S. military didn ’ t shoot down any of Iran ’ s ballistic missiles because there was no missile defense system in position .
A senior Pentagon official told Fox News that they believed an Iranian missile attack was “ unlikely.

“ When his fantasy of becoming president became a reality @ @ @ @ @ @ @ said , adding : “ This has turned his narcissism into a malignant disease.
” Watch the video here ( if you can get through more than two minutes because the 90 year old Soros can barely speak anymore ) : While he ’ d obviously like nothing more than to see Trump removed from office , Soros expressed doubts that the Democrats impeachment show trial will amount to anything , admitting that Trump has their number .
“ He has an instinct of how they are going to respond to his actions @ @ @ @ @ @ @ makes the tasks of the Democrats who impeached him extremely difficult.
” Having previously accused Trump of ‘ making concessions ’ to China , Soros suggested that Chinese President Xi Jinping is “ trying to exploit Trump ’ s weaknesses , ” where the international trade deal is concerned .
the leftist kingpin also also noted that Xi is using “ artificial intelligence to have total control of his people , ” referring to China ’ s developing , and much maligned , social credit system .
The elitist ’ s comments come @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s nationalistic address at Davos where he asserted that “ a nation ’ s highest duty is to its own citizens.

prisonplanet--2020-01-24--Russiagate Spy Paid $1 Million By Obama Was WaPo Deep Throat

Stephan Halper , the longtime CIA and FBI operative who conducted espionage on the 2016 Trump campaign , was feeding information to Washington Post reporter David Ignatius through his handler , according to The Federalist , which describes his actions as “ more evidence that the intelligence community has co-opted the press to push anti-Trump conspiracy theories.
” According to a court filing by Michael Flynn ’ s defense team , Halper ’ s ‘ handler ’ in the Office of Net Assessment ( ONA ) , Col. James Baker , “ regularly lunched with the Washington Post reporter.
” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Halper was paid over $ 1 million by the Obama administration through the Office of Net Assessment – nearly half of which came during ‘ Russiagate ’ – in which he not only surveilled multiple Trump campaign aides , he was involved in an effort to tie General Flynn to a Russian academic , Svetlana Lokhova , as part of a smear campaign .
Svetlana Lokhova , the Russian-born English citizen and Soviet-era scholar , told The Federalist that she only realized the significance of her communications with and about Ignatius following @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s reply brief in the Michael Flynn case .
In last week ’ s court filing , Powell highlighted how the CIA , FBI , , and possibly James Baker used the unnamed and unaware Lokhova and the complicit Ignatius to destroy Flynn .
This James Baker is not the one who worked under James Comey at the FBI , but a James Baker in the Department of Defense Office of National Assessment .
–The Federalist Stefan Halper is a known long-time operative for the CIA/FBI .
He was paid exorbitant sums by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Department ’ s Office of Net Assessment in 2016 .
His tasks seem to have included slandering Mr. Flynn with accusations of having an affair with a young professor ( a British national of Russian descent ) Flynn met at an official dinner at Cambridge University when he was head of DIA in 2014 .
Flynn has requested the records of Col. James Baker because he was Halper ’ s ‘ handler ’ in the Office of Net Assessment in the Pentagon , and ONA Director Baker regularly lunched with Washington Post Reporter @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be the person who illegally leaked the transcript of Mr. Flynn ’ s calls to Ignatius .
The defense has requested the phone records of James Clapper to confirm his contacts with Washington Post reporter Ignatius—especially on January 10 , 2017 , when Clapper told Ignatius in words to the effect of ‘ take the kill shot on Flynn.
’ It can not escape mention that the press has long had transcripts of the Kislyak calls that the government has denied to the defense .
Lokhova sued Halper and multiple MSM outlets for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a Russian spy who had ‘ honeypotted ’ Flynn , which were first promoted by Lokhova ’ s mentor at Cambridge University – Professor Christopher Andrew , who wrote in the London Sunday Times in February 2017 that her brief meeting with Flynnn during a 2015 dinner event was the beginning of the former National Security Adviser ’ s relationship with a Russian spy .
Prior to Andrew ’ s article , other outlets such as the Wall Street Journal , Washington Post and the New York Times had published rumors of a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , however Lokhova had no clue it was her until she was outed .
“ Halper had been pushing the story that I was a Russian spy and Flynn ’ s mistress since December of 2016 , ” Lokhova told The Federalist .
“ The New York Times ’ Mathew Rosenberg told me a source had been circulating these stories since December 2016 , ” she said , adding “ but they held the story until they could find a second source and someone at the Cambridge dinner.
” In his book “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Lee Smith confirms that the story about a Flynn-Lokhova intrigue was circulated to the press starting in December 2016 .
But it wasn ’ t until the Wall Street Journal published its March 17 , 2017 , article suggesting she had inappropriate contacts with Flynn that Lokhova discovered the earlier article Andrew had written about her for the Sunday Times , Lokhova said .
Before then , within days of February 28 , 2017 , several journalists reached out to her for comment , including two working for the Wall Street Journal , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
She also didn ’ t comprehend who the inquiring journalists were at the time .
That remained true even after her mentor and unknown betrayer , Andrew , wrote Lokhova telling her that “ David Ignatius of Washington Post is in UK at moment .
I ’ ve known him for years and trust him .
I ’ ve given him your email and he accepts that if you don ’ t wish to respond , that an end to it.
” –The Federalist It is unknown what Andrew meant by Ignatius @ @ @ @ @ @ @ however the above email was sent to Lokhova just one month after Ignatus reported the illegally leaked details of Flynn ’ s conversation with Russia ’ s ambassador – leading to his firing .

Joe Rogan Smeared as a ‘ White Nationalist Transphobe ’ After Bernie Sanders Accepts His Endorsement Woke morons are eating their own once again .
Joe Rogan is being smeared by leftists as a right-wing white nationalist transphobe after Bernie Sanders accepted the podcast host ’ s endorsement .
Sanders ’ campaign tweeted a clip from Rogan ’ s show saying that he would vote for Bernie in the presidential election if Sanders secures the nomination .
“ I think I ’ ll probably vote for Bernie… He ’ s been insanely consistent his entire life .
He ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ been for the same thing his whole life .
And that in and of itself is a very powerful structure to operate from , ” said Rogan .
This prompted a wave of condemnation from irate ‘ woke ’ imbeciles with blue check marks .
“ Bernie ’ s campaign cutting a campaign ad with Joe Rogan fucking sucks , ” tweeted former Vox journalist Carlos Maza .
“ Rogan is an incredibly influential bigot and Democrats should be marginalizing him.
” “ Is this okay with you ?
” asked Jodi Jacobson @ @ @ @ @ @ @ endorsement of a man known to be a misogynist , a racist , a homophobe , a transphobe , a white nationalist ?
This is okay ?
I need to know .
I am literally crushed by this.
” “ Joe Rogan is a transphobic bigot who shills for quackery and cuddles up to dangerous racists , ” claimed Mikey Franklin .
“ Appearing on his show is bad but understandable .
Publicising his endorsement is indefensible.
” “ Rogan can vote for whomever he wants but I don ’ t think the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ creep who gives a platform to Nazis , ” commented Eli Valley .
“ Imagine how you feel seeing Sanders embrace a transphobe if you ’ re trans , ” tweeted Vox journalist Aaron Rupar .
Of course , Rogan isn ’ t a “ transphobe ” if such a thing exists , he merely says that it ’ s unfair for biological men to compete against women in sports because they have innate physical advantages .
He also said it was wrong for biological male Fallon Fox to beat the hell out @ @ @ @ @ @ @ how ridiculous it was for leftists to try to disavow an endorsement from one of the most popular people in America .
Isn ’ t it always hilarious when they eat their own ?
Perhaps Rogan should have endorsed Trump .
Given that he still maintains a modicum of common sense , Rogan will never be embraced by the extremist forces taking over the Democratic Party .

The number of knife crime-related incidents in England and Wales has reached a record high , rising by seven per cent over the previous year .

Muslim Cleric Issues Fatwa Against Bollywood Film Director for ‘ Showing Quran in Bad Light ’ The Bollywood movie “ Gul Makai ” , based on the story of the life and struggle of 22-year-old Pakistani Nobel Peace Prize laureate Malala Yousafzai , has drawn the ire of a Muslim cleric .
A Muslim cleric from the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh has issued a fatwa , an Islamic legal decree , against Amjad Khan , the director of a film about Pakistani Nobel laureate Malala Yousafzai , who was shot by Taliban militants at the age of 14 .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ Makai ” shows a girl holding a burning book in her hands with an explosion coming out of it .
The cleric alleged that the book in question is the Quran , which means , per him , that the poster is against Islam and that the movie is showing their holy text as well as their religion in a “ bad light ” .
Speaking to Sputnik , the director of the film rubbished reports of filing any police complaint , saying : “ The cleric is the victim of misconception .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ is thinking that the lead actress , who is depicting Malala in the film , is holding a Quran in her hands .
He is assuming that because of his prejudice and because the protagonist of the film is a Muslim , she will only hold the Quran .

This is not a dignified move , but I will try to talk to him and will send him a letter ” , he added .

Swedish police seek more ‘diversity’ to tackle migrant crime — but applicants with foreign backgrounds struggle to make the grade

Swedish police seek more ‘ diversity ’ to tackle migrant crime — but applicants with foreign backgrounds struggle to make the grade An initiative launched by Sweden aimed at recruiting a more diverse police force has hit a roadblock , after half of all applicants with foreign backgrounds failed to pass their admissions tests , local media has reported .

Police @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that Swedish cops need to have better “ language and cultural competence ” skills , which he believed personnel with foreign backgrounds would possess .
The recruitment drive hasn ’ t fared well , however .
An estimated twenty-five percent of those who applied to join the police last fall had foreign backgrounds , but more than half of them reportedly failed to make the grade .
Officials said the prospective cops performed poorly on language tests and other criteria necessary to be admitted into the force .
Just ten percent of those @ @ @ @ @ @ @ immigrants , and just over two percent were women with foreign backgrounds .

The Future We Deserve : Your App-Enabled Dildo Or Butt Plug Could Be Spying On You And look no further for proof of that than a recent C|Net write up detailing how some internet enabled sex toy manufacturers may not be taking privacy as seriously as one might like – especially given the sensitive nature of the types of data it is collecting .
And enabled sex toys are big business .
In November of last year , we highlighted how one Nevada brothel was using sex robots and internet-enabled toys to help “ satisfy ” its customers .
Sex @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Las Vegas last week , with all types of internet enabled toys on display .
Almost all of these toys connect to apps , which then , in turn , collect data .
There are apps that monitor orgasms , save vibration patterns and let you connect with your long-distance partner ’ s toy .
And while some in the industry are taking security seriously , the rest of the products are “ all over the map ” , according to Nicole Schwartz , a researcher for Internet of Dongs ( yes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s name ) .
She said : “ Two out of three of these companies are not conscientious about security .
The ones you are going to see at CES are obviously a little more tech-minded , so you ’ re seeing a particularly biased section of the market.
” Back in 2016 , when the industry was still budding , Brad Haines founded Internet of Dongs after discovering just how bad security was for sex-toy apps .
“ It was rather terrifying at the beginning , just how bad it was , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to deal with connectivity before .
There ’ s no one around to say , ‘ That doesn ’ t seem like a good idea , ' ” he said .
The device isn ’ t so much the issue – the app software is where compromises are “ more likely ” to happen , he notes .
And it isn ’ t just software that can be compromised that users have to worry about , it ’ s companies ’ misuse of their data .
One company , Hong Kong-based Hytto , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ing ] and monitor [ ing ] the personal data of users of its Lush vibrator — including the time and date of use — without their consent.
” The company ’ s chief marketing officer responded : “ We don ’ t sell our users ’ data , and we only use it for customer service issues , and we wipe those logs regularly.
” We bet you do .
Soum Rakshit , CEO of another internet enabled sex toy company , MysteryVibe said : “ We have no profiles , because @ @ @ @ @ @ @ A lot of people spend months debating the color of a product .
If we can give security the same level of design importance , then we won ’ t have to worry about it later .
The biggest selling point is it saves you time and money if you do it in the beginning.
” Internet of Dongs researcher Schwartz offered several things you can do if you ’ re in the market for a toy and want to do your research : “ Check their website and see — do they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Do they talk about security ?
Are they specific at all — do they say things like ‘ We encrypt everything ’ ?
” The consequences of playing it fast and loose ( no pun intended ) with data are real .
They led sex tech company We-Vibe into a lawsuit that ultimately cost them $ 3.75 million in 2016 .
And this isn ’ t the only risk that internet-enabled sex toy owners take on .

World’s Richest Are Stashing ‘Large Sums’ Of Cash In Vaults As Swiss Bankers Rage Against Negative Rates

World ’ s Richest Are Stashing ‘ Large Sums ’ Of Cash In Vaults As Swiss Bankers Rage Against Negative Rates Finally , somebody at Davos is talking about something other than the weather… Davos ’ s wealthiest denizens have reportedly been laser-focused on the issue of climate change and it ’ s potential impact on the global economy and markets this year – and the Trump vs. Greta drama has only stoked interest – but apparently at least one of the hundreds of reports combing the town ’ s ritzy resorts has found a couple of bankers willing to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ industry .
And to our complete lack of surprise , that boogeyman is negative interest rate .
Now that the Fed has finished with its ‘ midterm adjustment ’ , no other central bank in the developed world is going to have the courage to lift rates off the zero bound , particularly as the Continental economy careens toward a recession .
But as the rate compression continues to punish European banks , placing them at a significant disadvantage to their American peers ( just look at what ’ s going on with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wealthy customers whom the banks have leaned on to try and make up for their lost revenues are deciding to pull their money and stash it under the mattress instead .
Because at least then they won ’ t need to pay points on their deposits .
According to CNN , several Swiss private bankers roaming the halls of Davos have said that clients have asked to withdraw large sums of cash so they can store it themselves , in a vault or in some other type of secure facility .
The trend @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s reputation as a safe and amenable locale for the world ’ s wealthy to stash their cash .
Davos denizen Norman Villamin , chief investment officer for private banking at Switzerland ’ s UBP , said a limited number of clients have moved their cash into private storage .
Some may have sold their business or a home recently , and “ can ’ t deploy the cash all in one go , ” he explained .
Private banker Rahn+Bodmer also said some clients had asked for at least some of their @ @ @ @ @ @ @ CNN , Swiss banks generally try to avoid passing costs on to customers like this , and will only charge such outrageous fees when net interest margin no longer exists .
For five years , Swiss banks have struggled with some of the steepest negative rates in Europe , a monetary framework designed to keep the Swiss franc from appreciating ( remember the explosion of volatility that ensued when the Swiss de-pegged the franc from the euro five years ago ? )

But banks are being charged an outrageous rate to store @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The SNB has maintained a policy rate of -0.75 % at its December meeting , while signaling that rates will likely remain on hold at least through next year .
This has forced many large Swiss banks , including Credit Suisse and UBS , to charge a negative interest rate on some of their largest customer deposits .
Of course , for clients who insist on holding their money in physical cash , devising a storage plan will take some work .

Either way , if large cash deposits are flowing out of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the franc should depreciate , which in turn might put the SNB in the uncomfortable position of trying to justify for continuing with its negative rates even as the currency sinks .
