A new Netflix movie set to be released next month celebrates 11-year-olds twerking , prompting condemnation about the film sexualizing children .
“ Amy , 11 , becomes fascinated with a twerking dance crew .
Hoping to join them , she starts to explore her femininity , defying her family ’ s traditions , ” read Netflix ’ s original description for the movie , which is called Cuties .
The trailer for the film shows ‘ diverse ’ children in a rough neighborhood learning to dance provocatively in preparation for a tournament .
“ They loved you .
See @ @ @ @ @ @ @ says one of the characters as a video of the girls twerking on social media is displayed .
The plot also features a young Muslim girl whose family tries to stop her from joining in with the other girls .
Another scene shows the 11-year-old girls talking to a group of 14-year-old boys who are asking them about their age .
The film is rated MA for a mature audience despite almost exclusively featuring 11-year-old girls , a factor that many viewers found creepy .
After a backlash , Netflix changed the description @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to “ free spirited dance crew.
” After being posted to YouTube for less than 48 hours , the trailer has 47,000 downvotes and just 6.6 thousand upvotes .
Respondents expressed their disgust , noting that the timing is horrendous given recent revelations about Jeffrey Epstein ’ s underage sex trafficking ring .
“ Seems really weird that you would contrast an Islamic family who wants their 11 year old daughter to be religious and cover herself up , ” said one .
“ With her dancing provocatively and wearing considerably less clothes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have made the girls 18 at the very least ?
This seems like borderline propaganda and an excuse to see young girls dancing.
” “ If Netflix really wanted to give light on the hypersexualization of children , it should ’ ve been a documentary , ” said another .
“ Filmed on the island of Jeffrey Epstein .
Bill Clinton was carefully edited out of some scenes , ” joked another .

summitnews--2020-08-20--Sweden’s Senior Epidemiologist: Wearing Face Masks Is “Very Dangerous”

Sweden ’ s top expert on the coronavirus has warned that encouraging people to wear face masks is “ very dangerous ” because it gives a false sense of security but does not effectively stem the spread of the virus .
“ It is very dangerous to believe face masks would change the game when it comes to COVID-19 , ” said Anders Tengell , who has overseen Sweden ’ s response to the pandemic while resisting any form of lockdown or mask mandate .
“ Face masks can be a complement to other things when other things are safely @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ But to start with having face masks and then think [ ing ] you can crowd your buses or your shopping malls — that ’ s definitely a mistake , ” he further urged .
Tegnell has consistently spoken out against the use of masks , last month declaring that “ With numbers diminishing very quickly in Sweden , we see no point in wearing a face mask in Sweden , not even on public transport.
” “ The findings that have been produced through face masks are astonishingly weak , even @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wear them , ” Tengell has urged .
“ I ’ m surprised that we don ’ t have more or better studies showing what effect masks actually have .
Countries such as Spain and Belgium have made their populations wear masks but their infection numbers have still risen , ” the epidemiologist also declared .
Sweden , which didn ’ t enforce any mandatory lockdown order , has seen its coronavirus cases and deaths slow to a trickle .
“ That Sweden has come down to these levels is very promising , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The curves are going down and the curves for the seriously ill are beginning to approach zero.
” As Newsweek acknowledged earlier this month , Sweden ’ s COVID-19 death rate is lower than those of Spain , the UK and Italy , countries which all imposed lockdowns .
Sweden ’ s GDP fall of 8.6 in Q2 2020 is also significantly less severe than the 12.1 average experienced in the Eurozone , leaving the Scandinavian country in “ much better shape than the rest of Europe .
”

The families of four people who died from COVID-19 are suing EcoHealth alliance, the New York-based nonprofit that was conducting gain-of-function research on bat coronaviruses in Wuhan, China, before COVID-19 broke out across town.
According to the Aug. 2 lawsuit filed before the New York Supreme Court in Manhattan, EcoHealth and its president, Peter Daszak, knew the virus was “capable of causing a worldwide pandemic.”
Not only did EcoHealth help to create a ‘genetically manipulated virus,’ the lawsuit claims, it worked to cover up the origins of the outbreak.
“If we had known the source or origin of this virus and had not been misled that it was from a pangolin in a wet market, and rather we knew that it was a genetically manipulated virus, and that the scientists involved were concealing that from our clients, the outcome could have been very different,” victims’ attorney Patricia Finn told the NY Post.
The families of Mary Conroy, of Pennsylvania; Emma D. Holley, of Rochester, NY; Larry Carr, of Crossville, Tennessee; and Raul Osuna, of Bennington, Nebraska, are seeking unspecified damages. “[The families of the deceased] are definitely in mourning, but moreover they’re enraged because the truth of what really happened appears to be coming forward,” Finn added. Paul Rinker, of Pennsylvania, is also suing Midtown-based EcoHealth and Daszak over the “serious injuries” he suffered from his bout with the bug.
Finn is also suing EcoHealth and Daszak in Nassau and Rockland Counties on behalf of the families of other victims killed by the virus, as well as two who survived.
“This particular case is highly offensive because it appears they knew and concealed the origin of the virus,” said Finn, adding “The treatment or approach taken in dealing with the virus could have been radically different than it was.”
Fauci is simply lying here. Zheng-Li Shi's lab at the WIV and EcoHealth Alliance (which administered NIH subawards to Zheng-Li Shi's lab) were absolutely manipulating viruses (using NIAID funds) in order to see which mutations would make them more dangerous to humans. https://t.co/2MD0oM4sWh — Justin B. Kinney (@jbkinney) August 12, 2023
EcoHealth notably received a re-activated grant from the NIH for over $576,000 in May to study how outbreaks of deadly viruses like SARS, MERS, and now COVID-19 originate from wildlife and transfers to humans, despite failing to meet the NIH’s conditions for reinstatement.
As the Epoch Times noted;
The grant, titled “Understanding the Risk of Bat Coronavirus Emergence,” was originally awarded in 2014 by Dr. Anthony Fauci’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID). Under the terms of the grant, EcoHealth Alliance, a government-funded nonprofit that purportedly engages in research to prevent pandemics, was awarded $3.8 million over five years to assess the spillover potential of bat viruses “using reverse genetics, pseudovirus and receptor binding assays, and virus infection experiments in cell culture and humanized mice.” Put in simple terms, NIAID was paying EcoHealth to genetically engineer and manipulate bat viruses in labs.
In May 2016, the grant was suspended after Erik Stemmy, a NIAID program officer, noticed that federal government funds may have been used for prohibited gain-of-function experiments at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) in China. At the time, the Obama administration had put in place a moratorium on gain-of-function experiments. However, for reasons that remain unclear, the suspension was lifted in July 2016. At the time, EcoHealth’s president, Peter Daszak, thanked NIAID in an email for lifting the gain-of-function funding pause.
As part of the conditions of the grant, EcoHealth had to file regular activity reports. However, starting in 2018, EcoHealth stopped submitting these reports. EcoHealth would later blame technical difficulties for their failure to submit. The missing reports comprised the critical 2018–2019 timeframe right before the outbreak of COVID-19 in Wuhan.
* * *
More:
In 2014, the Obama administration temporarily suspended federal funding for gain-of-function research into manipulating bat COVID to be more transmissible to humans. Four months prior to that decision, the NIH effectively shifted this research to the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) to EcoHealth, headed by Peter Daszak.
Notably, the WIV “had openly participated in gain-of-function research in partnership with U.S. universities and institutions” for years under the leadership of Dr. Shi ‘Batwoman’ Zhengli, according to the Washington Post‘s Josh Rogin.
Yet, after Sars-CoV-2 broke out in the same town where Daszak was manipulating Bat Covid, The Lancet published a screed by Daszak (signed by over two-dozen scientists), which insisted the virus could have only come from a natural spillover event, likely from a wet market, and that the scientists “stand together to strongly condemn conspiracy theories suggesting that COVID-19 does not have a natural origin.” The Lancet only later noted Daszak’s conflicts of interest.
Meanwhile, as we noted late last year, a Senate Committee on Health Education, Labor and Pensions interim report from October 27, 2022 titled “An Analysis of the Origins of the COVID19 Pandemic” concluded that the origins of Covid were more likely based in a lab as part of a “research related incident” and not zoonotic.
The report was the result of a “bipartisan Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) Committee oversight effort into the origins of SARS-CoV-2”. It provides a lengthy analysis that reviews “publicly available, open-source information to examine the two prevailing theories of origin of the SARS-CoV-2 virus”.
Insanity…

The panel of brown-nosing CNN heads gushed about how much they were looking forward to hearing Clinton speaking at the second night of the DNC .
Van Jones called Clinton “ The big dog ” , adding “ no matter what you say , Bill Clinton always brings it home.
” “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ whole crowd , ” Jones proclaimed , bizarrely adding that Clinton has a “ kind of working class hero upbringing.
” “ Bill Clinton is going to be bringing it on the economy , ” former Democratic Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm greasily added , as Jones encouraged her to “ preach.

” “ How is it that Bill Clinton has not been cancelled by the Democratic — @ @ @ @ @ @ @ waves of cancellation , when he ’ s been one of the biggest violators of these rules all these years ?
” Jennings added , clearly referring to Clinton ’ s documented sexual deviancy .

New York City is a Shithole

Mainstream news networks CNN , MSNBC , ABC and CBS have completely ignored the story of Cannon Hinnant , a 5-year-old boy who was shot in the head by an African-American male in North Carolina , with search queries on all of their websites returning no results .
Hinnant was brutally gunned down by 25-year-old felon Darius Nathaniel Sessoms while riding his playing outside his house in Wilson , North Carolina for the ‘ crime ’ of riding his bike on Sessoms ’ s property .
The shocking murder was witnessed by a neighbor and Hinnant ’ s two young @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ I saw him just run right up to him and [ he ] put the gun right up to his head and shot him , ” neighbor Doris Labrant told WRAL .

UPDATE: District Attorney Ron Freitas released a statement clarifying that the store owners are no longer under investigation:
Just when it appeared that a law abiding business owner had scored a victory against a scumbag shoplifter for once by subduing him with an almighty thrashing, the police have stepped in to criminally investigate the shopkeeper for assault.
Yes really.
KCRA.com reports that the clerk at a 7-Eleven in Stockton, Northern California, who was captured on video taking down a man threatening to pull a gun and filling up a barrel full of products is now the one under investigation by the cops.
The would be thief had visited the store three times on the evening in question, each time threatening the shop keepers and stealing from them.
On the third attempt he got what was coming to him.
Clown world.
The Sikh convenience store clerk who beat the piss out of a shoplifter with a stick in is under investigation from Stockton, California police for assault.
The clerks also said the same man stole from their store two other times.

As we see time and again, police don’t even bother preventing robbery anymore, and now they’re treating business owners who are forced to defend themselves as the criminals, while the assailants have somehow become the victims.

The Governor of Maine has ordered restaurant staff to wear anti-COVID visors upside down so they resemble dog cones in order to direct breath upwards .
Governor Janet Mills ’ decree states that “ front-of-house staff in restaurants who choose to wear face shields must now wear them upside down so that they are attached at the collar instead of the forehead , so that their breath is directed up , not down , ” reports Maine Public Radio .
Given that air conditioning units can facilitate the spread of coronavirus , Mills ’ order looks like another ridiculous and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of submission , forcing us to obliterate our individuality by wearing masks was not explicit enough , ” writes Dave Blount .
“ So they pushed the envelope even further .
No one can miss the significance of making people wear dog cones.
” Last week , the CDC announced that masks with valves , which millions of people around the world have been wearing for months , do “ not prevent the person wearing the mask from transmitting COVID-19 to others.
” As we highlighted earlier , Sweden ’ s top expert @ @ @ @ @ @ @ warned that encouraging people to wear face masks is “ very dangerous ” because it gives a false sense of security but does not effectively stem the spread of the virus .

Veteran publicist Ed Lozzi says that the middle class and wealthy are fleeing Los Angeles , noting that whereas the town once smelled of orange blossoms , it now smells of urine .
Lozzi noted that coronavirus was just the final blow to a city already reeling as a result of its progressive attitude towards homelessness .

Producer Dana Brunetti , a business partner of Kevin Spacey , also recently acquired @ @ @ @ @ @ @ more widespread riots .
The impact of allowing some 66,000 homeless people to roam the streets has also literally changed the smell of the city , according to Lozzi .
“ When I first arrived in LA 40 years ago , the town smelled of orange blossoms .
Now the streets stink of urine , ” he said .
“ There is a beautiful park in Westwood but you can ’ t go there because there are people slumped on the ground and you step on a carpet of needles.

The impact of allowing some 66,000 homeless people to roam the streets has also literally changed the smell of the city, according to Lozzi.
“When I first arrived in LA 40 years ago, the town smelled of orange blossoms. Now the streets stink of urine,” he said.
“There is a beautiful park in Westwood but you can’t go there because there are people slumped on the ground and you step on a carpet of needles.”
Danny O’Brien, the owner of Watford Moving & Storage, confirms Lozzi’s assertion about the mass exodus, arguing that “liberal politics has destroyed this city.”
“The homeless encampments are legal and there’s nothing the police can do. White, affluent middle-class folk are getting out. People don’t feel safe any more,” said O’Brien.
He notes that August has already set records for people moving out.
“People are getting out in droves. Last week I moved a prominent person in the music industry from a $6.5 million mansion above Sunset Boulevard to Nashville,” said O’Brien.
“The sudden migration of elites and white people from Los Angeles is similar to what happened in America after the civil rights movement of the 1950s and 1960s when white city dwellers fled to suburbia,” reports Zero Hedge.
“White/elite flight 2.0 is well underway and could last a couple of years.”
As we document in the video below, for many of the same reasons, there is also an exodus out of New York, with over 400,000 people having left the city between March 1st and May 1st alone.
The era of city living is coming to an end.

summitnews--2020-08-21--Lawsuit: Epstein Cited Friendship With Bill Clinton To Carry Out “Vicious, Prolonged Sexual Assault”

Never before seen photos have emerged of Bill Clinton receiving a massage from Jeffrey Epstein accuser Chauntae Davies , who was just 22 at the time .
The Daily Mail released the pictures , which will again raise questions over Clinton ’ s connections with the elite pedophile Epstein .
The photos show a clearly pleased Clinton being treated by Davies after a trip on the infamous “ Lolita Express ” plane in 2002 .
“ The images show Clinton dressed in a yellow button-down shirt and beige slacks with his hands resting on his lap , as he leaned @ @ @ @ @ @ @ behind him for a better angle , ” the Mail wrote .
“ Clinton , then 56 , had complained of having a stiff neck after falling asleep on Epstein ’ s infamous private jet , nicknamed The Lolita Express , while on a humanitarian trip with the pedophile to Africa in September of 2002 , ” the report continues .
“ [ Alleged madam Ghislaine ] Maxwell , who is now in prison on sex trafficking charges , repeatedly encouraged Davies to give Clinton a massage while the group was refueling at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in from New York , ” it adds .
Clinton was said to have asked Davies , “ Would you mind giving it a crack ?
” When asked about the incident , Davies said “ Although the image looks bizarre , President Clinton was a perfect gentleman during the trip and I saw absolutely no foul play involving him , ” according to the report .
While Clinton has repeatedly denied knowing anything of Epstein ’ s sordid activities , Court documents unsealed in the Maxwell case last month revealed that a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on Epstein ’ s so called ‘ pedo island ’ in the Caribbean along with Epstein , Maxwell and “ two young girls ” .
The claims in the documents echo those previously made by a former worker on Epstein ’ s island in a Netflix documentary .
The claims run contrary to denials by Clinton that he ever visited the island , which was reportedly the site of multiple sexual assaults of underage women by the convicted pedophile Epstein and his elite guests .
The allegations were made by Steve Scully , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who was present on the island of Little Saint James , as part of Jeffrey Epstein : Filthy Rich , which features testimony from witnesses and victims of Epstein ’ s sordid activities .
Scully claims that he saw the Clinton sitting with Epstein in the porch of the island ’ s villa .
Scully did not witness Clinton partaking in any illegal activity , however , and says no other guests were present at the time .
Scully says that he saw other ‘ important people ’ visiting the island , including @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be naked and flanked by topless girls .
“ You tell yourself that you didn ’ t know for sure and you never really saw anything , but that ’ s all just rationalization , ” Scully notes in the program , adding “ Jeffrey Epstein , he was a guy who concealed his deviance very well – but he didn ’ t conceal it that well.
” In January , pictures emerged of Clinton with his arms around Chauntae Davies , who has previously said that she was recruited to be Epstein @ @ @ @ @ @ @ slave ’ : Clinton has also been pictured on the steps of Epstein ’ s private plane , dubbed ‘ the Lolita Express ’ with Maxwell in 2002 : Flight logs have shown that Clinton made 26 trips on the plane from 2001 to 2003 .
Clinton was also pictured with Epstein ’ s housekeeper Jun-Lyn Fontanilla , and another staff member inside Epstein ’ s New York house : In separate legal papers accuser Virginia Giuffre has also placed Clinton on the island , claiming she had dinner with the former president @ @ @ @ @ @ @ women from New York on the island on one occasion .
Giuffre also said that she saw Clinton “ strolling into the darkness with two beautiful girls around either arm.
” The same witness , thought to be Giuffre , also said she had overheard Epstein saying that Clinton owed him “ favors , ” while noting that she couldn ’ t tell whether he was joking or not :

Update (2230ET): Musk has replied news that he’s been subpoenaed in the US Virgin Islands lawsuit against JPMorgan over their relationship with Epstein.
“This is idiotic on so many levels,” said Musk, adding “That cretin never advised me on anything whatsoever.“
“The notion that I would need or listen to financial advice from a dumb crook is absurd.”
Lastly, Musk claims that JPMorgan “let Tesla down ten years ago, despite having Tesla’s global commercial banking business, which I then withdrew. I have never forgiven them.”
This is idiotic on so many levels:
1. That cretin never advised me on anything whatsoever.
2. The notion that I would need or listen to financial advice from a dumb crook is absurd.
3. JPM let Tesla down ten years ago, despite having Tesla’s global commercial banking… — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) May 16, 2023
Elon Musk was issued a subpoena by the US Virgin Islands as part of its lawsuit against JPMorgan Chase over the bank’s alleged facilitation of Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking ring, a court filing revealed Monday.
According to the filing, the Virgin Islands has attempted to serve Musk since late April, because Epstein “may have referred or attempted to refer” Musk as a client to JPMorgan.
The USVI hired an investigative firm to try to locate an address from Musk, and also contacted one of the CEO’s lawyers, who in the past has waived the requirement of him being personally served with legal documents in past federal cases, according to the filing in U.S. District Court in Manhattan. -CNBC
“The Government contacted Mr. Musk’s counsel via email to ask if he would be authorized to accept service on Mr. Musk’s behalf in this matter but did not receive a response confirming or denying his authority,” reads the filing.
JPMorgan is accused of servicing approximately 55 Epstein accounts between 1998 and 2013, years after his 2006 arrest for soliciting minors in Florida.
Meanwhile, the US Virgin Islands has also been unable to subpoena Google co-founder Larry Page in connection with its investigation into Jeffrey Epstein, according to federal court filings.
In a motion filed last week by the USVI Attorney General, process servers have attempted to reach Page at four different addresses – none of which were ‘valid.’
“The Government made good-faith attempts to obtain an address for Larry Page, including hiring an investigative firm to search public records databases for possible addresses,” reads a filing. “Our process server attempted service at the addresses identified by our investigative firm, but discovered the addresses were not valid for Mr. Page.”
As such, prosecutors are asking the court to allow Page to be summoned via Alphabet, Google’s parent company, as Page still serves on its board.
Page’s whereabouts are largely unknown, though he was said in December to have spent the bulk of the COVID pandemic on one of his growing number of private islands – some of which are within the US Virgin Islands. Page purchased Hans Lollik and its smaller neighboring island, Little Hans Lollik, in 2014 for $23 million. -Daily Mail
“Larry Page – the co-founder and co-owner of Alphabet Inc. (Google LLC’s parent company) – is a high-net-worth individual who Epstein may have referred or attempted to refer to JPMorgan,” reads a filing in the case.
As Ben Bartee notes in PJ Media;
It seems there are two potential explanations for Mr. Page’s disappearing act: either he himself doesn’t want to testify because of personal fears of what crimes it might implicate him in, or someone or something else doesn’t want Mr. Page discussing what he knows about Jeffrey Epstein’s activities.
I recently made a half-serious petition for Elon Musk to slap a Twitter “red check” on all known Jeffrey Epstein associates. When this ordeal is said and done, there might be a new Silicon Valley tech overlord to add to the list.
The subpoena efforts are part of the ongoing Virgin Islands prosecution of JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon, implicating the highest level of multinational banking as potential accomplices in the years-long trafficking ring.
Via CNBC:
CEO Jamie Dimon in an interview Thursday said he was “so sad” the bank had any business relationship with Jeffrey Epstein — but denied the firm is legally liable for the dead predator’s sex trafficking. Dimon also said, in the televised interview with Bloomberg, that if JPMorgan had known everything that has become public in recent years about its former customer Epstein “we would have done things differently.”
What sad propaganda.
If anyone believes that a multinational banker like Jamie Dimon is psychologically capable of regret over facilitating immoral/illegal activities on behalf of his clientele, I have oceanfront property in Montana to sell you.

summitnews--2020-08-21--Entrepreneur: New York City is Dead and It’s Not Coming Back

Former hedge fund manager and entrepreneur James Altucher says New York City is dead and it ’ s not coming back .
Born and bred in New York , Altucher took his family and fled to Florida after the Black Lives Matter riots in June when someone tried to break into his apartment .
Since then , the city has continued to suffer a huge surge in shootings and violent crime as well as an anemic financial recovery from the coronavirus lockdown .
Appearing on Fox News Business , Altucher referred to images that were broadcast during the interview showing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ We have something like 30 to 50 per cent of the restaurants in New York City are probably already out of business and they ’ re not coming back , ” he pointed out .
Altucher said that despite offices in midtown being allowed to be open , they ’ re still largely empty because companies like Citigroup , JP Morgan , Google , Twitter and Facebook are encouraging their employees to work remotely from home “ for years or maybe permanently.
” “ This completely damages not only the economic eco-system @ @ @ @ @ @ @ your tax base when all of your workers can now live anywhere they want to in the country ?
” asked the entrepreneur , noting that many were fleeing to places that are cheaper to live like Nashville , Austin , Miami and Denver .
Warning that the situation was “ only going to get worse , ” Altucher said that the old New York was not coming back and that creative and business opportunities would now be dispersed throughout the entire country .
“ What makes this different now is bandwidth is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2008 so people can work remotely now and have an increase in productivity , ” he added .

There was a shocking number in today’s latest monthly US Budget Deficit report. No, it wasn’t that US government outlays unexpectedly soared 15% to $646 billion in June, up almost $100 billion from a year ago…
… while tax receipts slumped 9.2% from $461 billion to $418 billion, resulting in a TTM government receipt drop of over 7.3%, the biggest since June 2020 when the US was reeling from the covid lockdown recession; in fact never have before tax receipts suffered such a big drop without the US entering a recession.
Needless to say, surging government outlays coupled with shrinking tax revenues meant that in June, the US budget deficit nearly tripled from $89 billion a year ago to $228 billion, far greater than the consensus estimate of $175 billion. One can only imagine which Ukrainian billionaire oligarch’s money laundering bank account is currently enjoying the benefits of that unexpected incremental $50 billion US deficit hole: we know for a fact that the FBI will never get to the bottom of that one, since they can’t even figure out who dumped a bunch of blow inside the White House – the most protected and surveilled structure in the entire world.
And with the monthly deficits coming in higher than expected and also far higher than a year ago, it is also not at all surprising that the cumulative deficit 9 months into the fiscal year is already the 3rd highest on record, surpassed only by the crisis years of 2020 and 2021: at $1.393 trillion, the fiscal 2022 YTD deficit is already up 170% compared to the same period last year.
Again, while sad, none of the above numbers are surprising: they merely confirm that the US is on an ever faster-track to fiscal death, but not before the Fed is forced to monetize the debt once again (one wonders what financial crisis the Jekyll Island folks will invoke this time to greenlight the next multi-trillion QE).
No, the one number that was truly shocking was found all the way on page 9, deep inside Table 3 of the latest Treasury Monthly Statement: the only highlighted below, and which shows that in the 9 months of the current fiscal year, the US has already accumulated a record $652 billion in gross debt interest.
This number was more than 25% higher compared to the Interest Expense payment for the comparable period a year ago, which amounted to $521 billion.
Soaring interest rates, driven by the panicked Fed’s scramble to undo its epic policy failure of 2020 and 2021 when the Fed kept rates at zero for far too long while injecting trillions into various asset bubbles, have been the key driver of the deficit, with the Federal Reserve boosting its benchmark rate by 5% since it began hiking in March last year. Five-year Treasury yields are now about 3.96%, versus 1.35% at the start of last year. As lower-yielding securities mature, the Treasury faces steady increases in the rates it pays on outstanding debt: that’s right – even when the Fed starts cutting rates, due to the delay of rolling over maturing debt, actual interest payments will keep rising for the foreseeable future.
For context, the weighted average interest for total outstanding debt at the end of June was only 2.76%, a level that’s not been surpassed since January 2012, according to the Treasury. That’s up from 1.80% a year before, the department’s data show, and if the Fed indeed keeps rates “higher for longer”, the blended rate on the debt will surpass 4% in one year.
That would be a complete disaster for the US, and it would mean that interest payments on total US debt of $32.3 trillion would hit $1.3 trillion within 12 months, potentially making interest on the debt the single biggest US government expenditure and surpassing social security!
But we don’t even have to wait that long until the exploding interest on US government debt becomes a major talking point ahead of the coming presidential elections. According to the St Louis Fed’s FRED and the BEA, the interest payments by the Federal Government have now surpassed $900 billion for the first time ever, and within a quarter will hit probably rise above $1 trillion, a historic benchmark that will probably begin the countdown to the US Minsky Moment.
One of the most incompetent puppets in the Biden admin (and there are countless), Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, has played down concerns about higher rates. She has instead flagged that the ratio of interest payments to GDP, after adjustment for inflation, remains historically low. The problem with Yellen’s argument is that GDP will crater after the next recession (which will also spark the next financial crisis, one which Yellen will not live to see), but US debt will never again drop in either absolute or relative terms, as the good folks at the CBO have been so kind to make clear to even such intellectual midgets as the former Fed chairwoman.
In short, the endgame has now arrived, and all the US can do now is rearrange the deck chairs.

Carl Heneghan , a professor of evidence-based medicine at Oxford University , says governments have failed in accurately communicating the actual threat posed by coronavirus , leading people to become “ overly frightened ” due to misplaced fear .
Heneghan was responsible for the UK government significantly lowering its official COVID-19 death toll after he revealed that health authorities were counting coronavirus deaths even if someone had subsequently died of other causes .
Urging people to “ get on with your lives !
” Heneghan said that exaggerated fears over the pandemic had led to “ people going about their @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” “ We reset how we calculate the death rates .
We now need to reset how we communicate the risks of the virus , ” said Heneghan .
“ I am concerned people have become overly frightened and throughout this pandemic , the fear instilled in people has been a real problem , ” he added .
“ Many people misunderstand and overestimate their risk of Covid .
This uncertainty is leaving them highly anxious and affecting schools , offices and how we go about our daily lives .
The government needs @ @ @ @ @ @ @ true risks , ” concluded Heneghan .
As we previously highlighted , a survey last month found that across the western world , populations drastically overestimated the number of people who had been killed by coronavirus .
In the UK , respondents thought that an average of 7 per cent of the population , around 5 million people , had died from coronavirus , 100 times the actual figure which is 41,429 .

summitnews--2020-08-24--White Supremacist Richard Spencer Endorses Joe Biden

White supremacist Richard Spencer has publicly endorsed Joe Biden for president , leading Trump supporters to wonder if the media will ask Biden to disavow Spencer as vociferously as they demanded Trump disavow David Duke .
Spencer was asked on Twitter if he was going to vote for Biden given his “ belief that Biden/Kamala will be tougher on crime/BLM than Trump.
” “ I plan to vote for Biden and a straight democratic ticket .
It ’ s not based on “ accelerationism ” or anything like that ; the liberals are clearly more competent people , ” responded @ @ @ @ @ @ @ supported Trump in 2016 but has since been given a platform by the likes of CNN to criticize the president , to immediately begin trending on Twitter .
“ Richard Spencer is an unapologetic neo-Nazi , ” writes Andrea Widburg .
“ He ’ s frequently seen giving Nazi salutes , quoting Nazi propaganda , and making openly anti-Semitic statements.
” Spencer was also a leading figure at the August 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville which was attended by neo-nazis .
Both the media and Biden have amplified the fake story @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ very fine people , ” when in fact Trump specifically disavowed neo-nazis in the same breath .
“ Despite Trump ’ s crystalline clarity , the media instantly created their hoax , falsely proclaiming that Trump had called white supremacists “ fine people , ” writes Widburg .
“ Joe Biden has been running with this hoax ever since .
Indeed , it ’ s the accusation at the core of Biden ’ s campaign , for he mentioned it when he announced his candidacy , when he accepted the nomination , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tightly controlled interview with ABC.

White supremacist Richard Spencer has publicly endorsed Joe Biden for president, leading Trump supporters to wonder if the media will ask Biden to disavow Spencer as vociferously as they demanded Trump disavow David Duke.
Spencer was asked on Twitter if he was going to vote for Biden given his “belief that Biden/Kamala will be tougher on crime/BLM than Trump.”
“I plan to vote for Biden and a straight democratic ticket. It’s not based on “accelerationism” or anything like that; the liberals are clearly more competent people,” responded Spencer.
I plan to vote for Biden and a straight democratic ticket. It’s not based on “accelerationism” or anything like that; the liberals are clearly more competent people. — Richard 🦁 Spencer (@RichardBSpencer) August 23, 2020
This prompted Spencer, who supported Trump in 2016 but has since been given a platform by the likes of CNN to criticize the president, to immediately begin trending on Twitter.
“Richard Spencer is an unapologetic neo-Nazi,” writes Andrea Widburg. “He’s frequently seen giving Nazi salutes, quoting Nazi propaganda, and making openly anti-Semitic statements.”
Spencer was also a leading figure at the August 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville which was attended by neo-nazis.
Both the media and Biden have amplified the fake story that Trump described neo-nazis attending Charlottesville as “very fine people,” when in fact Trump specifically disavowed neo-nazis in the same breath.
“Despite Trump’s crystalline clarity, the media instantly created their hoax, falsely proclaiming that Trump had called white supremacists “fine people,” writes Widburg. “Joe Biden has been running with this hoax ever since. Indeed, it’s the accusation at the core of Biden’s campaign, for he mentioned it when he announced his candidacy, when he accepted the nomination, and when he had a brief, tightly controlled interview with ABC.”
When Donald Trump was endorsed by David Duke in 2016, the media never let it go, repeatedly asking Trump to disavow the former KKK leader.
Trump’s entire campaign then became dogged with the narrative that he was the candidate of choice for racists, white supremacists and neo-nazis.
One wonders if the corporate press will show the same level of enthusiasm in asking Biden to distance himself from Spencer.
Don’t hold your breath.
Dear @JoeBiden, I am demanding that you immediately disavow the support and backing of noted neo-nazi and white supremacist Richard Spencer. P.S. I don’t make up the rules. These are the standards set by liberals. https://t.co/aRMUDzOLbU — Ryan Knight 🌹 (@ProudSocialist) August 24, 2020
Anyone on the Left who claims white supremacists are for Trump with nothing more than an old photo or anecdote to prove it must now contend with the fact that the poster boy of white supremacy, Richard Spencer, has announced he’s voting Biden & straight Democratic ticket — Dinesh D'Souza (@DineshDSouza) August 23, 2020

summitnews--2020-08-24--Twitter Censors Trump Again, Claims To Be Protecting “Civil And Election Integrity”

Twitter once again censored a post by Donald Trump Sunday , this time claiming that the President had “ violated the Twitter Rules about civil and election integrity.
” Trump tweeted a claim that mail drop boxes are a “ voter security disaster , ” and would open the door to allow people to vote multiple times .
The president also warned that the mailboxes are not sanitized , and could help spread Covid-19 .
Within a few hours , the tweet was censored by Twitter : “ This tweet violated the Twitter Rules about civil and election integrity .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ may be in the public ’ s interest for the Tweet to remain accessible , ” the filter read .
“ Per our policies , this Tweet will remain on the service given its relevance to ongoing public conversation .
Engagements with the Tweet will be limited .
People will be able to Retweet with Comment , but not Like , Reply , or Retweet it , ” a statement from Twitter read .
Back in May , the company posted “ fact check ” labels to Trump ’ s tweets regarding potential @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s tweet was deemed to be misleading , regardless of the fact that a USPS mail carrier in West Virginia was charged with fraud for tampering with vote-by-mail requests .
Twitter again censored one of Trump ’ s tweets at the height of rioting in Minneapolis , claiming that the President was “ glorifying violence ” .
Twitter inserted a “ public interest notice ” on another of Trump ’ s tweets in June , accusing him of “ threatening harm against an identifiable group ” when the President warned that any @ @ @ @ @ @ @ met with a show of force in order to keep law and order .
Just weeks later in July , Twitter removed a meme that Trump had retweeted .
Twitter also completely removed a video of a Fox & Friends interview earlier this month claiming Trump was spreading “ misinformation ” about the coronavirus when he stated that children are ‘ almost completely immune ’ from the virus .
Two more tweets from Trump were not censored Sunday , both slamming Democrats for removing the words “ under God ” from the Pledge @ @ @ @ @ @ @ DNC :

Update (1350ET): The House Judiciary Committee has launched an investigation into a “misinformation” tracking group, the UK’s Center for Countering Digital Hate – which is now being sued by X Corp, formerly Twitter.
According to a letter seen by the Washington Examiner, the Center for Countering Digital Hate is in the crosshairs, as House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) has given the nonprofit until August 17, two weeks, to turn over records that could detail the extent of its ties to the Biden White House.
“We know from the Facebook Files that the Center for Countering Digital Hate was working with the White House to censor speech,” said a senior GOP congressional aide. “But how far did it go? Republicans want to find out, and of course subpoenas are on the table if we don’t get answers.”
Jordan’s letter, which was first obtained by the Washington Examiner, is the latest escalation of the GOP’s efforts to investigate how the federal government has, in some cases, coordinated with the private sector to flag certain speech, including speech related to COVID-19, as “disinformation” or “misinformation.” The chairman has recently been publicizing subpoenaed documents from Facebook, now called Meta, showinghow the platform kept in close contact with the Biden administration on content moderation. Further sets of emails produced in connection to that subpoena, which have not been reported on until now and were shared with the Washington Examiner, shed light on Center for Countering Digital Hate’s influence among top Facebook staffers and the highest levels of government. -Washington Examiner
In April 2021, a Facebook employee cited the CCDH’s March 2021 report titled “The Disinformation Dozen” in an email thread dubbed “Vaccine policy,” in which alleged that there “are twelve anti-vaxxers who play leading roles in spreading digital misinformation about COVID vaccines,” with RFK Jr. being one of them.
“We also continue to see pressure from partners and policymakers, including the White House, to remove entities that are seen to be contributing to a large amount of vaccine misinformation content (commonly referred to as the ‘disinformation dozen’ which CCDH asserts are responsible for 73% of vaccine misinformation on Facebook),” the employee’s email continues.
“We continue to monitor these entities on platform, and are reviewing the off platform as well, but do not believe we currently have a clear path for removal of these.”
In his letter to CCDH’s CEO, Imran Ahmed, Jordan writes: “We are interested in understanding the interactions between the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) and the federal government in particular, as well as between CCDH and social media companies,” adding “CCDH claims that ‘social media companies erode basic human rights and civil liberties by enabling the spread of online hate and disinformation.'”
Earlier Thursday, Jordan dropped a thread of receipts on Facebook’s relationship with the Biden regime and how they censored unfavorable opinions.
THE FACEBOOK FILES PART 3.
Newly subpoenaed internal notes of meetings between Facebook executives and Biden Admin officials reveal more about the lengths the Biden White House wanted to go to control true speech on Facebook.
🧵 Thread: https://t.co/AeXrs1U8wr — Rep. Jim Jordan (@Jim_Jordan) August 3, 2023
As we’ve previously noted (via Paul Thacker)
The Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) sprang out of nowhere in late 2017 or early 2018. At the time, Ahmed was leaving a job as a political advisor to members of the British Labour Party and had just written a book. As we chronicle in our just published book The New Serfdom, the dominance of market fundamentalism has been a disastrous experiment that has ripped up social cohesion and solidarity while the gap between the 1 per cent and the 99 per cent has soared to levels not seen since the beginning of the last century. Home ownership, secure employment and fair wages seem like relics of a bygone era. Meanwhile exploitative workplace practices have created a new serfdom leaving many people trapped in insecure, unfulfilling and underpaid work with no escape route. How this background as a political operative prepared Ahmed to brand himself as an expert in disinformation is unclear. His LinkedIn account makes no mention of his work as a political operative in England, although his biography at CCDH states that he is an “authority on social and psychological malignancies on social media, such as identity-based hate, extremism, disinformation, and conspiracy theories.” Ahmed now lives in Washington DC and his organization does not provide a list of funders. In early 2021, CCDH posted a report titled “The Disinformation Dozen” that alleged the majority of COVID vaccine disinformation came from just 12 accounts, including Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Ahmed released the report just as the Biden administration began their COVID vaccine rollout and shortly before the House held hearings on disinformation at social media companies.
Good question. This appears to be foreign government interference.
Can’t wait to get their donors under deposition! — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) July 31, 2023
And of course, now the CCDH has their cup out for donations.
CCDH who is known for silencing people including orgs like @FDRLST and @zerohedge are now using the @elonmusk lawsuit to get donations crying about how Elon is “silencing them” and it’s “straight out of the authoritarian handbook” ….This is unbelievable. 🙄 pic.twitter.com/EiWdZA42j8 — Natalie F Danelishen (@Chesschick01) August 3, 2023

Update (1253ET): Shortly after publication, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) dropped a Twitter thread full of receipts showing the Biden administration’s collusion with Facebook to suppress conservative speech.
“Since it’s a global pandemic, can we give agencies access to targeting parameters that they normally wouldn’t be able to?” said President Biden’s digital director, Rob Flaherty, according to internal company communications.
Rob Flaherty, President Biden’s then-Director of Digital Strategy, repeatedly put pressure on Facebook to explain its content decisions.
“We have to explain to President, Ron, people, why there is misinfo on the internet…” pic.twitter.com/zUZYbKHfA9 — Rep. Jim Jordan (@Jim_Jordan) August 3, 2023
Continued…For example, Flaherty questioned whether Facebook was doing enough to reduce traffic from sites like the @nypost. “I’m curious – NY Post churning out articles every day… What is supposed to happen to that from Policy perspective. Does that article get a reduction, labels?”
But that wasn’t enough for the Biden White House. Flaherty wanted Facebook to go a step further. He wanted Facebook to kick people off its site.
The Biden White House’s effort to censor opposing viewpoints only grew. So, they upped the pressure. Flaherty demanded that Facebook “play ball” and work with the Biden White House on censorship. He called it his “dream.”
But that’s not all. The Biden White House wanted to control what you saw on Facebook. They questioned whether Facebook could change its algorithm so users saw more posts from the New York Times and less from the @realDailyWireand @TomiLahren.
Why did they do that? Because they didn’t think you were smart enough to decide for yourself. President Biden’s head of strategic communications and public engagement for the #COVID19 response, Courtney Rowe, mocked Real America’s ability to determine what’s true and what isn’t.
Facebook knew it had to act. One employee tried to explain to the White House that if the company couldn’t “remove” content, it could at least “contain it.”
But Flaherty continued to press for more content moderation and CONTROL on so-called “bad” content.
And of course, Facebook caved. The company ADMITTED to the White House that it reduced content of certain posts – even if the posts didn’t violate the company’s terms and contained TRUE information. Just read this from a Facebook employee.
These newly subpoenaed meeting notes continue to show the Biden White House’s desire to direct and control content on Facebook. More evidence of the censorship-industrial complex. To be continued…

Authored by Eric Lundrum via American Greatness,
In new memos recently released by Facebook, the social media giant was pressured by the Biden White House into altering its algorithms so that mainstream news sources would be elevated over conservative sites.
As Just The News reports, the documents over to the House Judiciary Committee following a subpoena detail a series of meetings between Facebook executives and White House Digital Director Rob Flaherty in the spring of 2021. The demands from the White House focused on posts related to the Chinese coronavirus and the efficiency of the COVID vaccines.
In one meeting on April 14th, 2021, Flaherty asked Facebook if it was possible to artificially promote outlets such as the New York Times and the Washington Post, instead the Daily Wire and Fox News, particularly commentator Tomi Lahren.
“If you were to change the algorithm so that people were more likely to see NYT, WSJ, any authoritative news source over Daily Wire, Tomi Lahren, polarizing people,” Flaherty asked.
“You wouldn’t have a mechanism to check the material impact?”
“We have to explain to President, Ron [Klain], people, why there is misinfo on the internet, bigger problem than FB,” said Flaherty, according to the typed notes from Facebook executives.
“Where issues are, what interventions are, how well they are working, for products, want to engage in things that you know to be effective. I don’t even care about specific methodology, you have better, richer data than we’ll ever have.”
Tomi Lahren, who boasted a large following on Facebook, had recently announced that she would refuse to get the COVID vaccine. Meanwhile, Daily Wire had filed a lawsuit against the Biden Administration’s mandate for private workplaces to force its employees to take the vaccine. The Supreme Court eventually struck down Biden’s workplace mandate, while upholding his vaccine mandate for facilities that are funded by Medicare and Medicaid.
“What are the things driving hesitancy on your platform? What is it? How big is the problem? When you are intervening, how are you measuring success?” Flaherty repeatedly grilled the Facebook executives in one meeting.
“Never-before-released internal documents subpoenaed by the Judiciary Committee PROVE that Facebook and Instagram censored posts and changed their content moderation policies because of unconstitutional pressure from the Biden White House,” said Congressman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), Chairman of the Judiciary Committee, on Twitter.
Constitutional scholars have also raised the alarm over the revelations, with George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley saying that he has “asked Congress to pass a law barring federal employees from engaging in censorship and targeting of citizens.”
“Agencies have a right to speak in their own voices,” Turley added. “Instead, the Biden Administration sought to engage in what I have called ‘censorship through surrogate.’ This is part of that pattern.”
Turley’s take is reiterated by University of Tennessee law professor Glenn Reynolds told Just the News on Wednesday that the First Amendment issue is when the “government is asking people to censor speech, their action is attributable to the government, so both they and the government can be sued.”x
“By working with the government, Facebook exposed themselves to liability,” Reynolds said, noting that they do not “share sovereign immunity” with the government and will “probably very much regret it.”
