      Technology once used to combat ISIS propaganda is enlisted by Democratic group to counter Trump's coronavirus messaging - The Washington Post

        Tue, 08 Sep 2020 13:35
        A new Democratic-aligned political action committee advised by retired Army Gen. Stanley McChrystal, the former head of U.S. forces in Afghanistan, is planning to deploy technology originally developed to counter Islamic State propaganda in service of a domestic political goal '-- to combat online efforts to promote President Trump's handling of the coronavirus pandemic.
        The group, Defeat Disinfo, will use artificial intelligence and network analysis to map discussion of the president's claims on social media. It will seek to intervene by identifying the most popular counter-narratives and boosting them through a network of more than 3.4 million influencers across the country '-- in some cases paying users with large followings to take sides against the president.
        The initiative reflects fears within the Democratic Party that Trump's unwavering digital army may help sustain him through the pandemic, as it has through past controversies, even as the economy craters, tens of thousands have died, and Trump suffers in the polls.
        ''It's often said campaigns are a battle of ideas, but they're really a battle of narratives,'' said David Eichenbaum, a Democratic media consultant who is a senior adviser to the PAC. ''Today those narratives spread quickly online.''
        The initiative is run by Curtis Hougland, who is using open-source technology initially incubated with funding from DARPA, the Pentagon's research arm, as part of an effort in 2015 to combat extremism overseas. A DARPA spokesman, Jared B. Adams, said that the agency is not involved in Hougland's current initiative.
        Hougland insists Democrats are ill-prepared for the looming battle over information and attention, which is bound to play an outsize role in November. He cites as an example Trump's suggestion last week that injecting bleach or other household disinfectants could be a treatment for the novel coronavirus '-- a moment that appeared unequivocally damaging to the president but was less clear-cut as it unfolded on social media. Although the episode was associated with a spike in Twitter engagement about Trump, especially in swing states such as Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, according to Hougland's analysis, four of the top six tweets about Trump and disinfectant came from accounts partial to the president, boosting the notion that he had not really suggested the bogus cure.
        Among them was a tweet from Ryan Fournier, national co-chair of Students for Trump, who wrote, ''No, President Trump did not tell people to inject themselves with Clorox or Lysol. If you believe that, you're a moron.''
        Fournier said there's a grass-roots digital army prepared to defend the president when his back is against the wall.
        ''I see the people on Twitter,'' he said in an interview. ''I see the Facebook groups. I see the posts across these networks. I see the websites people have created to support the president. It's tremendous amounts of stuff that I've never seen in a presidential election before.''
        Hougland agreed. Republicans, he said, ''have greater volume frequency and quality of digital narrative.''
        Though he is advising the overtly political effort, McChrystal stopped short of endorsing Trump's opponent, former vice president Joe Biden, whom the former general once criticized as part of a dust-up over counterterrorism strategy that led to his resignation in 2010.
        McChrystal said his interest in the PAC is about ensuring the accuracy of information leading up to the election, even if it involves chasing viral attention with emotional appeals and other tactics rewarded by online clicks.
        ''Everyone wishes the Pandora's box was closed and none of this existed, but it does,'' McChrystal said in an interview.
        His ambivalence is shared by large parts of the Democratic Party, which recoiled at an effort, brought to light at the end of 2018, to use Russian-inspired tactics, including the creation of fake accounts, to sway the 2017 Senate election in Alabama.
        Hougland's PAC shuns these methods. Yet it differs from more traditional Democratic-aligned PACs, such as Priorities USA and American Bridge 21st Century, in embracing the practice of paying influencers to convey their messaging. The approach raised eyebrows and prompted tech companies to clarify their rules when it was put into practice by Mike Bloomberg's presidential campaign earlier this year.
        ''I have no trepidation about paying content creators in seeking out and amplifying the best narratives,'' Hougland said.
        Stephanie Berger, a former national finance director for the Democratic National Committee, is raising funds for the initiative, which is an extension of Hougland's technology company, Main Street One. Andrew Tobias, a former DNC treasurer, was an earlier investor in the start-up.
        Main Street One's leaders were previously involved in cultivating digital narratives in Eastern Europe to counter Russian propaganda and, more recently, have waded into American politics. The organization ran a campaign that paid influencers to boost Kentucky Democrats before the gubernatorial election last fall. A super PAC supporting Sen. Cory Booker of New Jersey in his bid for the Democratic nomination paid Main Street One more than $500,000 for similar services last year.
        Hougland said his aim is to maintain the ''largest repository of content against Trump,'' and to be nimble in boosting organic material that is already performing well, such as videos produced by the Biden campaign.
        The presumptive Democratic nominee, whose primary bid counted on the gulf between Twitter and real life, has sought to expand his digital prowess as campaigning has gone fully virtual. He anchors a new podcast, and his campaign is plugging virtual rallies with mantras like ''#SoulSaturday'' designed to compete with Trump's digital reach.
        At the same time, Biden's aides are betting that the president's bully pulpit is just as likely to turn voters off as it is to win them over. Matt Hill, a campaign spokesman, pointed to recent moves by the president's team to ''pull back his daily disinformation shows as his credibility continues to sink.''
        But Joe Trippi, a Democratic operative who helped manage the 2017 Senate campaign in Alabama, said the president is partially insulated from the fallout over his own remarks by a ''media echo chamber that is very disciplined about just picking up whatever the misdirection of the day is and amplifying it.'' That protective armor makes it all the more critical for Democrats to turn up the volume on anti-Trump messaging, he said.
        But Trippi wondered about the long-term consequences of adopting some of the online tactics favored by the right.
        ''Once someone does something that works, it's usually picked up by the other side,'' Trippi said. ''You've got to fight it, but the question is, like negative ads, if it works, do you just get better and better at it? I don't think that'd be very helpful for our democracy.''
        Restraint could be a more effective approach, said Cindy Otis, a former CIA officer and disinformation researcher. She stressed the need to illustrate the real-world consequences of the president's words, for instance demonstrating that his comments about bleach were followed by a spike in calls to emergency hotlines.
        Otherwise, she said, ''it's most effective to counter false narratives with straight-up facts.''
        This story has been updated to include a statement from DARPA.
      Authorities misinterpreting COVID-19 trial data with 'disastrous' results, Canadian researchers say | National Post

        A picture shows the Manama's repurposed convention centre, in which 6,000 people are participating in a large-scale trial of a Chinese-sponsored vaccine for COVID-19, on August 27, 2020 in the Bahraini capital. Photo by MAZEN MAHDI/AFP via Getty Images Article contentWhen British scientists studying potential treatments for COVID-19 released early results on hydroxychloroquine in June, it was not good news.
        For patients sick enough with the coronavirus to be hospitalized, there was no evidence the controversial malaria drug did them any good. The RECOVERY trial found the same for the HIV therapy lopinavir.
        The findings had a dramatic effect. Around the world ethics boards and funding bodies ended ''dozens if not hundreds'' of studies on hydroxychloroquine and lopanivir, says Edward Mills, a Canadian clinical trials expert.
        The problem with that, he says, is that many of those other trials were looking at the medicines as a treatment for outpatients in a milder phase of the disease, or as a ''prophylaxis'' to prevent infection in the first place.
        The impact on severely ill patients '-- what the widely respected U.K. trial examined '-- was largely irrelevant to their work, says Mills, a McMaster University professor who advises the Gates Foundation on clinical trials.
        The episode was typical of what has become a serious problem in the COVID-19 pandemic: misinterpretation of trial data, with ''disastrous'' results for other studies, Mills and colleagues argue in a recent medical journal commentary.
        Influenced by media accounts, scientific oversight boards often don't recognize there are distinct phases to COVID-19 sickness, and that what works at one point in the disease may be useless at another '-- or vice versa, they wrote in Lancet Global Health.
        ''The scientific community has been no better versed on the complications of COVID than the general public,'' Mills said in an interview. ''I'm tremendously disappointed in the scientific community and what I see is a lack of critical interpretation of this complex disease.''
        Sir Nick White, an Oxford University tropical-medicine professor, confirmed by email that his own planned study of hydroxychloroquine as a preventive was ordered shut down because of the RECOVERY results.
        White convinced U.K. authorities to reverse that decision, but said in his own journal paper this month that a number of such trials ''are now under substantial threat, as some regulatory agencies have actively stopped ongoing studies.''
        This file photograph taken on May 20, 2020, shows a bottle and pills of Hydroxychloroquine as they sit on a counter at Rock Canyon Pharmacy in Provo, Utah. Photo by GEORGE FREY/AFP via Getty ImagesPrematurely ending trials because of misinterpretation and other factors means it's still unknown whether drugs like hydroxychloroquine could, in fact, be useful as preventives or early in the illness, Mills said.
        He traces the problem in part to the unprecedented way science is being communicated during the pandemic.
        Article content continuedInstead of a sober exchange of peer-reviewed journal papers, research is often first published on ''pre-print'' websites or in news releases without review, then reported by journalists and spread through social media.
        ''Never before have we seen a medical scenario become such a public topic, where you have the president of the United States and the president of other countries weighing in on whether a drug works or not,'' he noted. ''And then you have the public weighing in on whether they agree with that individual, based on their own politics. This is unheard-of.''
        More On This TopicMeanwhile, experts who rule on funding requests and ethics approvals can be unaware that there are at least five distinct phases of COVID-19, the Canadians' paper said.
        A drug with possible anti-viral capabilities, like hydroxychloroquine, may help a patient in the early stages of the disease when the virus itself is the threat. But it's unlikely to help a patient who is severely ill and in the intensive-care unit, at which point the enemy is an exaggerated immune response and inflammation, said Mills.
        Even the drug Remdesivir '-- a modest success story among COVID treatments '-- was found in one study to have little benefit when begun an average of 11 days after symptoms started. Another trial, however, concluded that it hastened recovery when administered two days earlier, noted the commentary.
        The RECOVERY trial looked at only hospitalized patients, but had a much wider fallout, and not just on White's study.
        The Crown Coronation trial headed by Washington University in St. Louis was set to study hydroxychloroquine as a prophylaxis for 40,000 front-line health workers, but researchers were told to switch gears because of RECOVERY's findings, said Mills.
        An ethics board in South Africa halted a trial on using lopinavir on COVID outpatients because of RECOVERY's hospital patient results. Investigators eventually persuaded the board to change its ruling, but lost eight crucial weeks amid the debate, said Miils.
        That and other problems leave him worried that the current pandemic will end without a good handle on how to effectively treat those people who still get sick '-- and before they end up in hospital.

      Coronavirus: Social gatherings of more than six people to be banned in England from Monday | Politics News | Sky News

        A ban on groups of more than six people gathering in homes, parks, pubs and restaurants in England is being imposed by Boris Johnson in the biggest coronavirus crackdown since lockdown rules were eased.
        First offenders will be fined £100, which will double on each further repeat offence up to £3,200, the prime minister will announce in a bid to stem an alarming surge in COVID-19 cases in the UK.
        "We need to act now to stop the virus spreading," Mr Johnson will declare at a Downing Street news conference, coinciding with a new government advertising campaign entitled "Hands. Face. Space.".
        "So we are simplifying and strengthening the rules on social contact, making them easier to understand and for the police to enforce," the PM will announce.
        "It is absolutely critical that people now abide by these rules and remember the basics - washing your hands, covering your face, keeping space from others, and getting a test if you have symptoms."

        From next Monday, any gathering of more than six people in England will be illegal, unless it meets one of a limited list of exemptionsThis applies to gatherings both indoors and outdoorsThe new rule does not apply to households or bubbles of more than six, or gatherings for work or educationWeddings, funerals, and organised team sports carried out in a COVID-secure way are also exemptPeople will at first be fined £100, but this will double on each further repeat offence up to £3,200The full list of exemptions will be revealed by the government before the law changes on Monday.
        Pubs, restaurants and other hospitality businesses will also be forced to collect customers' details to aid with contact tracing, Health Secretary Matt Hancock has said, instead of it just being voluntary.

        The crackdown comes after warnings from government medical chiefs that the public - particularly young people - are now too relaxed about coronavirus, with the result that COVID-19 rates are now above 20 per 100,000 people.
        The PM's announcement follows the Health Secretary Matt Hancock imposing a ban on socialising with people from other households in Bolton, with restaurants in the town limited to serving takeaway food and a 10pm-5am curfew on all venues.
        'Hands. Face. Space' - new government advertAhead of Mr Hancock's Bolton announcement, England's deputy chief medical officer, Professor Jonathan Van-Tam, warned of a "bumpy ride over the next few months" unless the virus was taken "incredibly seriously".
        The health secretary also issued a warning to young people this week not to spread the virus to older, more vulnerable relatives, telling people in their late teens and early 20s: "Don't kill your gran by catching coronavirus and then passing it on."
        Young people behind rise in Covid casesExplaining the reasons for the new crackdown, Downing Street sources claim putting the new, lower limit in law will make it easier for the police to identify and disperse illegal gatherings.
        The new rules follow a Zoom roundtable the prime minister had with police forces last week, where officers expressed their desire for rules on social contact to be simplified.
        According to No 10, cabinet ministers, the chief medical officer Professor Chris Whitty and chief scientific adviser Sir Patrick Vallance have jointly agreed that urgent action is necessary after seeing the number of daily positive cases rise to almost 3,000 recently.
        The latest figures reveal there were a further 2,460 lab-confirmed cases of coronavirus in the UK as of 9am on Tuesday, following 2,948 on Monday and 2,988 on Sunday, which was the largest daily figure since May.
        The government says the new rules will apply across England, to all ages, to gatherings indoors and outdoors, in private homes, public outdoor spaces and venues such as pubs and restaurants.
        Downing Street claims the rise in UK cases is following a similar pattern to other European countries, with increasing infection rates causing rising hospitalisations in Spain and France - and deaths in Spain now rising too.
        Hancock: Rise in COVID-19 cases 'concerning'The new government public information campaign will highlight how everyone can help stop the spread of the virus by remembering to wash their hands, cover their face and make space.
        "Hands. Face. Space" will run across TV, radio, newspapers, online, billboards and displays at bus stops and other transport venues, with a new video being released to show exactly how coronavirus spreads indoors.
        Downing Street says that with people expected to spend more time inside during the winter, the film - produced with the help of scientific experts - encourages the public to follow simple steps to reduce the risk of infection.

      Los Angeles Cancels Trick-Or-Treating, Suggests New Halloween Activities. Then Walks It Back. | The Daily Wire

        The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health created Halloween 2020 guidance on Saturday that effectively banned the holiday as Americans have celebrated it for decades before subsequently releasing a follow-up that walked back some of the more extreme portions of the guidelines.
        ''As fall approaches, families start to plan for the upcoming holiday season beginning with Halloween. Since some of the traditional ways in which this holiday is celebrated does not allow you to minimize contact with non-household members, it is important to plan early and identify safer alternatives,'' said the department in guidance. ''The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health would like to share information on how to take part in this holiday in a manner that reduces the risk of spreading COVID-19. Since some of the traditional ways in which this holiday is celebrated are not permitted this year, consider some safer alternatives that are listed below.''
        Under the new guidelines, Los Angeles kids looking to celebrate Halloween '-- which falls on a Saturday instead of the usual school-night '-- will be forced to forgo costume parties, carnivals, haunted houses, and other live events, even if they are hosted outdoors.
        In the original September 5 guidance, trick-or-treating and trunk-or-treating were prohibited. However, new guidelines released on Wednesday afternoon have since moved those two activities into a new ''not recommended'' category, which wasn't in the previous guidelines.
        ''Door to door trick or treating is not recommended because it can be very difficult to maintain proper social distancing on porches and at front doors, ensure that everyone answering or coming to the door is appropriately masked to prevent disease spread, and because sharing food is risky,'' said the revised guidelines released on Wednesday. '''Trunk or treating' where children go from car to car instead of door to door to receive treats is also not recommended, particularly when part of Halloween events, since it is difficult to avoid crowding and sharing food.''
        According to data from The Los Angeles Times , Los Angeles County has recorded 15,392 cases of coronavirus in the last two weeks and 426 deaths. As of 2019, there were about 10 million residents in the county.
        The department of public health has suggested that in lieu of celebrating Halloween with Trick-or-Treating, children celebrate the holiday in a more pandemic-appropriate manner. Only one of these suggestions, however, includes receiving candy:
        Virtual costume parties or pumpkin-carving contestsDrive-by car parades, drive-by costume contests (for kids or for cars), drive-by halloween displays, or drive-up events where treat-bags are handed out, but without Trick-or-Treating.Halloween-themed drive-in movie theater screeningsHalloween-themed restaurant visits (restaurants in the city are currently closed to indoor dining, so the restaurant must be open for outdoor service) or Halloween themed out-door art installationsHalloween-themed decorations for inside and outside of the home The Daily Wire is one of America's fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.

      Did a Math Error Lead to the Never-Ending COVID-19 Lockdowns?

        More and more voices are now speaking out on the lockdowns, widespread testing, and other policies associated with the COVID-19 response. Now a professor from the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada, Ronald B.Brown, Ph.D., is questioning how mortality data was presented to Congress early in the pandemic.
        This hearing was held on March 11, 2020, in front of the House Oversight Committee. During the questioning, Dr. Anthony Fauci asserted that the mortality rate for COVID-19 was 3%. He then extrapolated to claim that if you added in the mildly symptomatic cases, it would probably be about 1%, which is ten times more deadly than the seasonal flu.
        Brown asserts that this testimony is what launched campaigns for social distancing, lockdowns, and shelter-in-place orders to varying degrees nationwide. He then goes on to explain that fatality rates are classified in two different ways, while mortality rates are a timebound calculation.
        The CDC defines mortality rate as the frequency of deaths within a time period for a well-defined population. To calculate the mortality rate for women under 40 from breast cancer for 2019, you would divide the number of deaths from breast cancer for women under 40 by the total population of women under 40 during that specific calendar year.
        A case fatality rate (CFR) is calculated as the number of people who die of a disease divided by the total number of confirmed cases of the disease during a period of time. This calculation is a measure of disease severity. Using the example above, the CFR for breast cancer in women under 40 would be divided by the number of confirmed breast cancer cases under 40.
        By contrast, an infection fatality rate (IFR) is the number of deaths from an infection divided by the prevalence of that infection in the population. As we know, with COVID-19, there are a significant number of asymptomatic and mild infections. The number of infections is estimated based on representative samples of blood tests looking for an immune response. The CDC estimated that for COVID-19 the number of infections in the population was ten times the number of confirmed cases in July of 2020.
        What the Media Won't Tell You About the United States' COVID-19 Case Fatality RateFor COVID-19, all of these calculations are already a little muddy. The National Center of Health Statistics (NCHS) relaxed the guidelines for classifying a death as COVID-19. It did not require a confirmed test or any other medical documentation to use the COVID-19 ICD-10 code on the death certificate. The latest update encourages testing wherever possible, but still does not require a lab-confirmed test.
        Combine the relaxed stance from the NCHS with the financial incentives provided to hospitals for COVID-19 care through the CARES Act, and it's not a conspiracy theory to think death rates may be overstated. This assertion is reinforced by states like New York periodically reclassifying deaths after the fact.
        Brown asserts that because these three statistics can vary widely, it is essential they are not confused. Yet he believes this may have happened with COVID-19 rates, which he explained in his testimony:
        Previous to the Congressional hearing, a less severe estimation of coronavirus mortality appeared in a February 28, 2020, editorial released by NIAID and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Published online in the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM.org), the editorial stated:
        '''...the overall clinical consequences of Covid-19 may ultimately be more akin to those of a severe seasonal influenza (which has a case fatality rate of approximately 0.1%).''
        Almost as a parenthetical afterthought, the NEJM editorial inaccurately stated that 0.1% is the approximate case fatality rate of seasonal influenza. By contrast, the World Health Organization (WHO) reported that 0.1% or lower is the approximate influenza infection fatality rate, not the case fatality rate.
        By definition, the CFR is always going to be higher than the IFR. The bar for inclusion in the population in the denominator for CFR is most often a laboratory-confirmed case of the infection. By contrast, the denominator in the IFR is estimated based on widespread population samples looking for antibodies. Brown explains the significance of the error:
        In a comparative analysis with WHO and CDC documents, the coronavirus mortality rate of 2''3% that was adjusted to 1% in Congressional testimony is consistent with the coronavirus CFR of 1.8''3.4% (median 2.6%) reported by the CDC. Furthermore, the World Health Organization reported that the CFR of the H1N1 influenza virus is also 2''3%, similar to the unadjusted 2''3% CFR of the coronavirus reported in Congressional testimony, with no meaningful difference in mortality. As previously mentioned, the World Health Organization also reported that 0.1% is the IFR of seasonal influenza, not the CFR of seasonal influenza as reported in the NEJM editorial.
        Fauci used the IFR to describe the seasonal flu and the H1N1 pandemic. He used the CFR to describe COVID-19. This error led him to estimate that COVID-19 would be ten times deadlier than the flu, which drove public policy. Brown also called out the classification error of referring to all positive tests as ''cases.'' This error is constant in the media. It is also misleading given recent reporting from The New York Times about the significant oversensitivity of the PCR test.
        The New York Times Does Accidental Journalism on COVID-19 TestingThe estimation provided by Dr. Fauci was used to communicate with the public, by the media, and to determine public policy. It has also led to the word ''cases'' being redefined to mean people who are sick with COVID-19, as well as people who display no symptoms. A positive test puts you in that category even though the test is so sensitive that as often as 90% of the time it picks of virus incapable of causing transmission of infection.
        Even worse, the media still does not delineate the risks to various segments of the population. They also don't discuss where the majority of new cases are occurring. This metric is vital to assess health system resources. If the majority of cases are in people under 40, the risk to the system remains low.
        So, thanks to a false comparison, we closed schools, colleges, and pretty much everything else. Many areas are still having reopening debates. Ultimately, the CDC placed the IFR for COVID-19 at 0.26 in June . That is a rate between two and three times the WHO estimate of IFR for the flu and is significantly concentrated in patients over 65 with preexisting conditions. This knowledge should have caused a significant shift in public policy nationwide, but we still have states and cities that have draconian restrictions.
        The conflation of CFR and IFR at the outset of the pandemic was a mistake that likely cost billions of dollars and an untold number of lives when we consider increases in suicide and deaths from undetected diseases, which will lag. The public health apparatus owes the country an answer on this and an assurance it won't happen again.

      Quebec City Says It Will Isolate "Uncooperative" Citizens In Secret Corona Facility | Zero Hedge

        Authored by Paul Joseph Watson via Summit News,
        Authorities in Quebec City, Canada have announced they will isolate ''uncooperative'' citizens in a coronavirus facility, the location of which remains a secret.
        During a press conference, Dr. Jacques Girard, who heads the Quebec City public health authority, drew attention to a case where patrons at a bar were ordered to wait until their COVID-19 tests came back, but disregarded the command and left the premises before the results came back positive.
        This led to them being deemed ''uncooperative'' and forcibly interned in a quarantine facility.
        ''[W]e may isolate someone for 14 days,'' Girard said during the press conference. ''And it is what we did this morning'...forced a person to cooperate with the investigation'...and police cooperation was exceptional.''
        The health official then outlined how the state is also tracking down people for violating their home quarantine and forcibly removing them to the secret facility.
        ''Because we have had people isolated at home. And then, we saw the person was not at home. So, we went to their home, and then told them, we are isolating you where we want you to be,'' said Girard.
        ''Six other Quebec City bars ''known to have been frequented by Kirouac regulars'' are now being examined by public health officials,'' reports the RAIR Foundation.
        ''It should be noted that it is not being claimed that anyone is actually sick from the coronavirus. But the state has the power to force a citizen into isolation anyway.''
        As we previously highlighted, the government of New Zealand announced similar measures, saying that they will put all new coronavirus infectees and their close family members in ''quarantine facilities.''

      AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine study is put on hold

        A large, Phase 3 study testing a Covid-19 vaccine being developed by AstraZeneca and the University of Oxford at dozens of sites across the U.S. has been put on hold due to a suspected serious adverse reaction in a participant in the United Kingdom.
        A spokesperson for AstraZeneca, a frontrunner in the race for a Covid-19 vaccine, said in a statement that the company's ''standard review process triggered a pause to vaccination to allow review of safety data.''
        In a follow-up statement, AstraZeneca said it initiated the study hold. The nature of the adverse reaction and when it happened were not immediately known, though the participant is expected to recover, according to an individual familiar with the matter.
        advertisement
        The spokesperson described the pause as ''a routine action which has to happen whenever there is a potentially unexplained illness in one of the trials, while it is investigated, ensuring we maintain the integrity of the trials.'' The spokesperson also said that the company is ''working to expedite the review of the single event to minimize any potential impact on the trial timeline.''
        An individual familiar with the development said researchers had been told the hold was placed on the trial out of ''an abundance of caution.'' A second individual familiar with the matter, who also spoke on condition of anonymity, said the finding is having an impact on other AstraZeneca vaccine trials underway '-- as well as on the clinical trials being conducted by other vaccine manufacturers.
        advertisement
        Clinical holds are not uncommon, and it's unclear how long AstraZeneca's might last. But the progress of the company's trial '-- and those of all Covid-19 vaccines in development '-- are being closely watched given the pressing need for new ways to curb the global pandemic. There are currently nine vaccine candidates in Phase 3 trials . AstraZeneca's is the first Phase 3 Covid-19 vaccine trial known to have been put on hold.
        Researchers running other trials are now looking for similar cases of adverse reactions by combing through databases reviewed by a so-called Data and Safety Monitoring Board, the second person said.
        AstraZeneca only began its Phase 3 trial in the U.S. in late August. The U.S. trial is currently taking place at 62 sites across the country, according to clinicaltrials.gov, a government registry, though some have not yet started enrolling participants. Phase 2/3 trials were previously started in the U.K., Brazil, and South Africa.
        There are a number of different reactions that can qualify as suspected serious adverse reactions, symptoms that require hospitalization, life-threatening illness and even death. It was also not immediately clear which clinical trial the adverse reaction occurred in, though a clear possibility is the Phase 2/3 trial underway in the U.K.
        While it's still unclear how severe and rare the adverse event may be, the finding could impact how quickly efficacy data from the U.K. trial will be available. Those data are considered integral to any bid to seek an emergency use authorization for the vaccine from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration '-- and potentially jeopardize President Trump's efforts to fast-track a vaccine ahead of the November election.
        A Phase 1/2 study published in July reported that about 60% of 1,000 participants given the vaccine experienced side effects. All of the side effects, which included fever, headaches, muscle pain, and injection site reactions, were deemed mild or moderate. All of the side effects reported also subsided during the course of the study.
        The vaccine '-- known as AZD1222 '-- uses an adenovirus that carries a gene for one of the proteins in SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes Covid-19. The adenovirus is designed to induce the immune system to generate a protective response against SARS-2. The platform has not been used in an approved vaccine, but has been tested in experimental vaccines against other viruses, including the Ebola virus.
        The Phase 3 trial in the U.S. aims to enroll about 30,000 participants at 80 sites across the country, according to a release last week from the National Institutes of Health.
        It was not immediately clear what steps were being taken at study sites across the U.S. in response to the hold. Clinical holds in ongoing studies often involve a pause in recruiting new participants and dosing existing ones, unless it's deemed in the interest of participant safety to continue dosing.
        In the statement from AstraZeneca, the company spokesperson noted that ''in large trials illnesses will happen by chance but must be independently reviewed to check this carefully.'' The spokesperson also said the company is ''committed to the safety of our participants and the highest standards of conduct in our trials.''

        Drugmakers racing to produce Covid-19 vaccines pledged to avoid shortcuts on science as they face pressure to rush a shot to market.
        In an unusual public letter, the companies agreed to submit the vaccines for clearance only when they're shown to be safe and effective in large clinical studies. The chief executive officers of nine frontrunners in the push for a coronavirus inoculation signed the pledge: AstraZeneca Plc, BioNTech SE, GlaxoSmithKline Plc, Johnson & Johnson, Merck & Co., Moderna Inc., Novavax Inc., Pfizer Inc. and Sanofi.
        ''In the interest of public health, we pledge to always make the safety and well-being of vaccinated individuals our top priority,'' the executives wrote.
        The document is intended to counter perceptions that political pressure to deliver a shot as soon as possible may compromise its safety. U.S. President Donald Trump has said a vaccine could be ready before the presidential election in November, and has accused the Food and Drug Aministration of slowing its work to hurt him politically.
        FDA Sets Up Vaccine Safeguards to Counter Pressure From Trump
        Public trust in a vaccine will be crucial as public health authorities try to convince millions of healthy people around the world to take it. The pledge also included a promise that companies would work to ensure there are vaccine options ''suitable for global access.''
        Squeezed Timeline''We believe this pledge will help ensure public confidence in the rigorous scientific and regulatory process by which Covid-19 vaccines are evaluated and may ultimately be approved,'' the CEOs said in the letter.
        Drugmakers have condensed the development timeline for their vaccines -- normally a matter of years -- down to months, with early results from some of the frontrunners expected before the end of the year. Pfizer has said it could have crucial test readings by October.
        The companies said they would meet FDA expectations for studies with participants across diverse populations. Moderna recently slowed the enrollment of its trial, resulting in a delay of about a week, in order to recruit more people from minority communities at high risk from the virus, CNBC has reported.
        Any data that form the basis of an emergency-use authorization for a vaccine should be made public, Merck CEO Ken Frazier said last week. ''The scientific community can actually pore through that data and assure the public that it has been looked at objectively,'' Frazier said at a meeting of pharma manufacturers.
        The pledge did not include China's Sinovac Biotech Ltd. or CanSino Biologics Inc. Russia and China have already started using experimental vaccines on a limited basis before tests in humans were complete.

      Massachusetts flu vaccine student mandate should also include teachers: Medical experts

        As Massachusetts health officials mandate that students get the flu vaccine by the end of the year, their teachers at the front of the classroom are not required to receive the shot, an exception health experts say leaves a gap in the effort to protect the school population.
        The state Department of Public Health should extend this mandate for educators as well, medical experts tell the Herald.
        ''If you are going to mandate a vaccine for children, it should be mandated for teachers as well in order to most adequately protect the population at the school,'' said Mount Sinai School of Medicine's Nicole Avena.
        ''Many hospitals have flu vaccine mandates for employees, and everyone from the doctors to the mail room workers are expected to get it,'' she added.
        In August, the Department of Public Health announced that flu shots will be required for all children 6 months of age or older who are attending Massachusetts child care, preschool, kindergarten, K-12 and colleges and universities.
        Students will be expected to have received a flu vaccine by Dec. 31 for the 2020-2021 influenza season, unless either a medical or religious exemption is provided.
        The new vaccine requirement is a step to reduce flu-related illness and the overall impact of respiratory illness during the COVID-19 pandemic, state health officials said.
        When asked why they were not requiring teachers to also get the vaccine, the Department of Public Health noted that state law allows the agency to make school vaccination requirements for students, but not for others.
        ''There are vaccination recommendations for teachers including the flu vaccine but not requirements,'' the DPH said in a statement.
        ''We strongly recommend that everyone over the age of 6 months get a flu vaccine every year,'' the agency added.
        The Massachusetts Teachers Association does not provide guidance to its members about getting a flu shot. Both the American Federation of Teachers Massachusetts and the Boston Teachers Union did not immediately respond to comment on Monday.
        All teachers should ''absolutely'' get the vaccine, said Jeannie Kenkare, chief medical officer of PhysicianOne Urgent Care, adding that the DPH should follow up with teachers about getting it.
        ''With people congregating in schools, it just seems like common sense to get the vaccine to prevent the spread and protect our vulnerable populations, especially as we're facing this 'twindemic' of flu and COVID-19 this fall,'' she said.
        The Massachusetts Public Health Association strongly recommends that every child and adult gets their influenza vaccination this year.
        ''As we face the threat of two simultaneous outbreaks this winter '-- coronavirus and the flu '-- it is more important than ever that we take all possible precautions to prevent the spread of these viruses that can cause serious illness, hospitalization, and death,'' the MPHA said in a statement, adding about the flu shot, ''It is a way not only to protect your own health, but also the health of your loved ones, your neighbors, your colleagues, and our communities.''

The problem is that Astra Zeneca is withholding information as this is the second time, which Astra Zeneca has placed their studies on hold, and in both instances, spinal inflammation was the source.AstraZeneca Covid Vaccine Study Halted After Spinal-Cord ... https://www.bloomberg.com /news/articles/2020-09-09/astrazeneca-study-halted-after-spinal-cord-issue-nih-chief-says Today A day after pausing its Covid-19 vaccine trials due to a possible serious neurological problem in one patient, AstraZeneca Plc faced numerous questions about what exactly caused the issue and ...There is a major problem in this as the "cure" the S strain which has been infecting people had a 15% kill and adverse reaction rate, which has now dropped below 1%. One person with spinal inflammation which lists as transverse myelitis and then mutates to a neurological condition of unknown origin and then is passed off as MS, indicates that the Astra Zeneca injection is either triggering MS in people who are prone to it or it is manifesting a new disease in people who took the injection.One person in a few trial patients translates into hundreds of thousands, like Bill Gates polio injection in Africa is spreading polio there, making the situation an epidemic by syringe.Appearing before the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor & Pensions, Collins said the severe adverse event in the U.K. patient was transverse myelitis, a neurological disorder that causes inflammation of the spinal cord. If AstraZeneca’s review finds the adverse event is related to the vaccine, all the doses already manufactured will be thrown away, Collins said.An August update of the information sheet removed the reference to transverse myelitis and said the participant developed neurological symptoms that caused the study to be paused, and that the volunteer was later diagnosed with what was described as “an unrelated neurological illness.”“There was a brief trial pause in July while a safety review took place after one volunteer was confirmed to have an undiagnosed case of multiple sclerosis,”This mRNA is untried. It is based in aborted dead baby kidney cells or army worms. There is something inside of the Astra Zeneca serum which triggers neurological disorders. As MS is an illness which attacks the linings of the nerve cells, there is something inside the Astra Seneca serum which is degrading this lining, most likely in the protein structure. The fact is, that what has manifested may be those who are already with compromised nerve cells, and they are coming down with symptoms early and that every person who has received the AZ serum is going to come down with a new form of MS.This once again is another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.For the record, Chloroquine and Ivomec are both proven treatments with zinc, with not any adverse side effects.Nuff SaidagtG

        Sept. 3 (UPI) -- Vitamin D deficiency increases a person's risk for catching COVID-19 by 77% compared to those with sufficient levels of the nutrient, a study published Thursday by JAMA Network Open found.
        As many as one in four of the nearly 500 participants in the study were found to have less-than-optimal levels of vitamin D, the data showed.
        Among those found to be lacking the key nutrient, 22% contracted COVID-19, the data showed.
        Of the 60% of study subjects with adequate vitamin D levels, just 12% were infected, according to the researchers.
        "There is prior evidence from multiple sources that vitamin D can enhance both innate and adaptive immunity," Dr. David O. Meltzer, a professor of medicine at the University of Chicago, told UPI.
        Innate immunity refers to the body's natural immune system response. Adaptive immunity describes how the immune system adjusts to a new pathogen -- like a virus -- that is able to evade its natural response.
        "Vitamin D also ... may prevent the excess inflammation that is part of the challenge in managing severe COVID-19," Meltzer said.
        Based on existing research, many physicians recommend that patients take vitamin D supplements if their diet is lacking in the nutrient because it has been shown to play a role in immune health, according to Kathryn A. Boling, a family physician at Mercy Medical Center in Baltimore, who was not part of the JAMA Network Open study.
        "There are some dietary sources of vitamin D, including fatty fishes such as salmon, eggs, mushrooms and fortified foods, including most milk and dairy products, but it is not easy to get the levels one would get from supplements from these dietary sources alone," Meltzer said.
        "Regular exposure to sunlight can [also] raise vitamin D levels," he said.
        For this study, Meltzer and his colleagues analyzed data on 489 University of Chicago Medicine patients for whom vitamin D status was included in their electronic health records before the start of the COVID-19 outbreak in the United States.
        Researchers then tracked the health of these patients from March 3 to April 10.
        Of the 489 patients, 124, or 25%, had insufficient vitamin D levels in their blood, while 287, or 59%, were found to have sufficient levels of the nutrient, the data showed.
        The vitamin D status of the remaining 16% of participants was "uncertain," according to the researchers.
        Vitamin D deficiency was found to increase the risk for testing positive for COVID-19 by 77%, while older age -- which has been linked with higher risk for the disease -- only raised the likelihood by 6%, the study showed.
        Non-White study participants were 2.5 times more likely to test positive for the virus, the researchers found.
        "Vitamin D deficiency was associated with an increased likelihood of testing positive for COVID-19," Meltzer said. "Given that vitamin D deficiency is common, supplementation of vitamin D intake might reduce the likelihood of developing COVID-19."
      UN says new polio outbreak in Sudan caused by oral vaccine

        Thu, 10 Sep 2020 12:04
        LONDON (AP) '-- The World Health Organization says a new polio outbreak in Sudan is linked to an ongoing vaccine-sparked epidemic in Chad '-- a week after the U.N. health agency declared the African continent free of the wild polio virus.
        In a statement this week, WHO said two children in Sudan '-- one from South Darfur state and the other from Gedarif state, close to the border with Ethiopia and Eritrea '-- were paralyzed in March and April. Both had been recently vaccinated against polio. WHO said initial outbreak investigations show the cases are linked to an ongoing vaccine-derived outbreak in Chad that was first detected last year and is now spreading in Chad and Cameroon.
        ''There is local circulation in Sudan and continued sharing of transmission with Chad,'' the U.N. agency said, adding that genetic sequencing confirmed numerous introductions of the virus into Sudan from Chad.
        WHO said it had found 11 additional vaccine-derived polio cases in Sudan and that the virus had also been identified in environmental samples. There are typically many more unreported cases for every confirmed polio patient. The highly infectious disease can spread quickly in contaminated water and most often strikes children under 5.
        In rare instances, the live polio virus in the oral vaccine can mutate into a form capable of sparking new outbreaks.
        Last week, WHO and partners declared that the African continent was free of the wild polio virus, calling it ''an incredible and emotional day.''
        On Monday, WHO warned that the risk of further spread of the vaccine-derived polio across central Africa and the Horn of Africa was ''high,'' noting the large-scale population movements in the region.
        More than a dozen African countries are currently battling outbreaks of polio caused by the virus, including Angola, Congo, Nigeria and Zambia.
        Amid the coronavirus pandemic, many of the large-scale vaccination campaigns needed to stamp out polio have been disrupted across Africa and elsewhere, leaving millions of children vulnerable to infection.
        In April, WHO and its partners reluctantly recommended a temporary halt to mass polio immunization campaigns, recognizing the move could lead to a resurgence of the disease. In May, they reported that 46 campaigns to vaccinate children against polio had been suspended in 38 countries, mostly in Africa, because of the coronavirus pandemic.
        Some of the campaigns have recently been re-started, but health workers need to vaccinate more than 90% of children in their efforts to eradicate the paralytic disease.
        Health officials had initially aimed to wipe out polio by 2000, a deadline repeatedly pushed back and missed. Wild polio remains endemic in Afghanistan and Pakistan; both countries also are struggling to contain outbreaks of vaccine-derived polio.

        I can't breathe.Waiting for the tear gas in Portland, 2020, Photo by Christyl RiversI can't breatheIt's completely surprising. Yet, it is entirely expected, by a few.
        Hurricane Laura, this week, smashed up large swaths of the gulf, notably the petrochemical regions in Texas and Louisiana. In Lake Charles, Louisiana, a raging fire sent toxic clouds over an area where people have already been uncomfortably trying to breathe for years.
        Many in these areas are people of color. Most are poor. Thousands are women and children.
        Climate justice is the dawning realization of many that besides bearing the punishing brunt of all climate crisis disasters, from hurricanes, toxic leaks, lead in water, floods and fires, poor people worldwide are also, often BIPOC. The Black Environmental Justice Network and the Deep South Center for Environmental Justice are just two organizations that have known about it for years: bigotry kills through toxins in air, water, government, and pandemics.
        Giant corporations like Exxon Mobil and Chevron have also known this for awhile. You know, the guys who own your world leaders and don't mind your death so long as their second yachts, jets, and influencers are fully funded.
        Speaking of gaseous emissionsAlso screaming blasts of hot air and noxious gases this week was the Republican National Convention. However, if I can get just one decent republican, (the kind in the world I grew up with '-- miss you Daddy) to convince me that's an inaccurate bias I will take back that last sentence.
        Both sides claim we are in an existential crisis if we don't vote for the correct side.
        Fears of global pandemic, death by fire, storm, and flood, loss of food producing agriculture and water, rampant racial and gender injustice, inability to afford healthcare are just some of the fears being sold on the Biden side of history.
        On the other side, we have to worry about truly horrifying things: Satanic cannibal, child sex rings '-- a truly Satanic Hellscape American Miscreant menace, or SHAM, '-- in my cost-cutting shorthand.
        Nor is that even the scariest thing. There are people who want to take all your cows and pigs, and not just for food! Worry too, about poor people moving into your vanilla suburban dream neighborhoods, looting sparked by ''false'' grievance, or even worse, a terrifying Biden/Harris ticket.
        Jokes aside, (Who says God has no sense of humor?), we have plenty to keep us busy through the 2020's.
        It's all connected, yet it's not all Q-anonThere are other links between racism, pollution, climate crisis and pandemic. Food is one. Where your food is grown may be a consumption oriented, fossil fuel heavy, herbicidal and pesticidal industrialized farm. Or it may be a part of the world where humanity encroaches steadily upon forest and grasslands with our cattle heavy preference for meat, or say, in the case of some less privileged locales, making a living.
        Here too, is food for thought. Those bats and pangolins that brought you COVID 19, to say little about the pigs, chickens and cows, that brought every other major pandemic to swoop in like quiet, gentle coughs of hurricanes, did not voluntarily take themselves to market.
        We human beings took them there. And, now, we aren't even sorry we did because it is easier, and also human, to find scapegoats like China, Immigrants, democrats, and somehow, Obama.
        Yet another link is populism. It sounds like what you do to pimples, but what it really is makes a pimple seem delightfully charming.
        Pimples are made by youth acne, but only a demagogue can make Nazis.
        And, amid the confluence of pandemic, climate crisis, and bigotry, the world seems to be seeing them pop up all over.
        Of course, many fine people will tell you such worries are Trumped up nonsense. Fake news. Hoax. Who knows. People are saying.
        Let's hope it's just an adolescent technology phase: surveillance, unrest, Deepfakes, unmarked vans, spy drones, plus a world stage we're thrashing about upon, or going through, or something.
        Another link is money. We pay plenty to keep oil and gas interests contributing to climate change, killing all the polar bears, promoting racism and poverty, running our toxic government lobbied representatives, destroying arable lands and carbon sinks, and, most of all, keeping all of it quiet '-- or at the very least, confusingly contradictory.
        To this day, Greta Thunberg hasn't gotten her point across: listen to science. It's because most people just don't want to, or can't afford to, hear it. Climate catastrophe is going to make COVID 19 look like a picnic in rainbow drenched unicorn land with delicious cruelty-free apple pies made by plentiful bees and ice cream from MAGA happy, fart-free cows.
        Or to put it another way, we are all going to die.
        I know I am but what are you?Maybe I'm a bit discouraged, lately.
        We're dying. Does that sound pessimistic? It should not. Because we KNOW these things. We, for the first time in history, can change the course of our trajectory. We can have green jobs, media facts, truth and science based education, better health, a fuller diversity-based, race and gender equal society, less stress, and more time.
        Then, despite the many links between COVID, Climate, Classic Racism and Sexism, we won't all die. Just some of us.
        That's just the sad reality. Much like racism, it's better late than never to come out against it. Confusingly, some people are still FOR it. But this is no time to dither about the woulda, coulda, shoulda, stuff.
        Now is the time for all good humans to come to the aid of what's left of everything.

        Good morning, good afternoon and good evening.
        May I, before starting, say that you have the chance to speak. Please do not limit yourself to asking questions. I will be glad to try to answer any question that you ask, but my main interest is to listen to your opinions and your suggestions, your proposals, and to the critical aspects that you would like to raise about what we have been doing. So, please use this as an opportunity to convey your own positions more than to ask questions, but of course I will be glad to try, if I can, to answer whatever question is asked. But my main objective is to listen, it is not to talk.
        Now, it's a great pleasure to be here with all of you. This Townhall on the sidelines of the Commission on the Status of Women is a regular fixture in my calendar, and CSW itself is an annual landmark at the United Nations. This year, unfortunately it was one of the first events to be postponed in response to COVID-19. I am glad finally to have the opportunity to meet with women's civil society and to hear your ideas and concerns.
        The COVID-19 pandemic has in the past six months turned our world upside down. Beyond the virus itself, the response has had a disproportionate and devastating social and economic impact on women and girls.
        COVID-19 is deepening existing inequalities, including gender inequality. Already we are seeing a reversal in decades of limited and fragile progress on gender equality and women's rights. And without a concerned response, we risk losing a generation or more of gains.
        Since the start, women have been on the frontlines of the response, as healthcare workers, teachers, essential staff and as carers in their families and communities.
        Between 70 and 90 per cent of healthcare workers are women, but their salaries and conditions often fail to reflect the lifesaving roles they occupy. Personal Protective Equipment is often made to fit a standard man, which means women care workers may be at greater risk of infection, and fewer than 30 percent of decision-making roles in the health sector are occupied by women. 70 to 90 percent of healthcare workers doing the work, with only 30 percent in decision-making roles.
        In the broader economy, the majority of women around the world are employed informally. Many have been thrown into financial insecurity by the pandemic, without regular income and lacking any social safety net.
        The pandemic has exposed the crisis in unpaid care work, which has increased exponentially as a result of school closures and the needs of older people and falls disproportionately on women. Before the start of the pandemic it was clear that care work '' unpaid in the home and underpaid in the formal economy '' has long been a contributing factor to gender inequality.Now, the pandemic has exposed the extent of its impact on physical and mental health, education and labour force participation.
        There are also disturbing reports from around the world of skyrocketing levels of gender-based violence, as many women are effectively confined with their abusers, while resources and support services are redirected.
        In short, the pandemic is exposing and exacerbating the considerable hurdles women face in achieving their rights and fulfilling their potential.
        Progress lost may take years, even generations, to recover. We know from the Ebola outbreak in West Africa that when teenage girls leave school, they may never return.
        Today, millions of teenage girls around the world are out of school, and there are alarming reports of an increase in teenage pregnancies in some countries. Each of these issues is a crisis within a crisis.
        Distinguished activists,
        Protecting the rights of women and girls during this time is a top priority for the United Nations. We issued a policy brief in early April, calling on governments to take concrete action to put women and girls '' their inclusion, representation, rights, social and economic outcomes and protection '' at the centre of all efforts to tackle and recover from the COVID-19 pandemic.The first phase is the health response.
        While statistics indicate that women and girls are at lower risk from the COVID-19 virus itself, they are suffering because of the redirection of health funding and services. It is simply counter-productive, for example, to deprioritize maternal and reproductive health services. Maternal mortality fell by nearly 40 per cent between 2000 and 2017; we cannot backtrack now, but there are signs that rates are rising again due to the pandemic, particularly in countries in crisis.
        Governments must take a holistic view of the health impact of this pandemic. All women have a right to quality, affordable sexual and reproductive health services. Governments have a responsibility to make sure women and girls can access these services, even during a crisis.
        In the longer term, we need health systems that meet the needs and realities of all, including women and girls. This means prioritizing and funding primary health care and Universal Health Coverage.
        We are also urging governments to prioritize protecting women from gender-based violence in their national COVID-19 plans. At the start of the pandemic, after my call for a global ceasefire, I issued an appeal for an end to all violence everywhere '' from war zones to people's homes '' so that we can face this pandemic together, in solidarity.
        I was heartened by the response; more than 140 governments committed to taking action to designate women's shelters as essential, and to continue and expand online services. The United Nations stands ready to support these efforts around the world. We already have a well-established partnership with the European Union, the Spotlight Initiative, which is the largest global platform on ending violence against women and girls. Through this we stand ready to support countries to uphold their commitments to inclusive peace and security.
        The second phase of the response is mitigating the social and economic impact of the crisis. That starts with putting money into the hands of women who work in both the formal and informal economies. Cash transfers, credits and loans should be targeted at women, to mitigate the immediate impact of job losses and increased caring responsibilities.
        As governments inject stimulus and other funds to get their economies back to work, they must expand social safety nets and recognize the value of invisible and unpaid care work. This will address the vulnerabilities women experience, ensure women's central role in economic life and in the long term, contribute to sustainable development and more inclusive and resilient economies.
        The third phase of the response is building a better future.
        The pandemic is only demonstrating what we all know: that millennia of patriarchy have resulted in a male-dominated world with a male-dominated culture which damages everyone '' women, men, girls and boys.
        I have many times said that behind many of the problems I have been talking about, there is an essential question of power. It is indeed addressing this question of power that we must concentrate all our efforts.
        It is clear that we cannot go back to the failed policies that have resulted in the fragility we see around us '' in healthcare systems, in social protection, in access to justice. This is the time to rebuild more equal, inclusive, and resilient societies. Our roadmap is the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
        We need to take the opportunity of an economic reset to ensure the rights to life, dignity, and security for everyone.
        The pandemic has shown us who is doing the work that really matters: nurses, teachers, care workers. As we recover, we need to remember this. It is time to end the inequities of unpaid care work and create new economic models that work for everyone.
        Benefits like health insurance, paid sick leave, paid child and family care and paid parental leave are not luxuries; they are vital to the functioning of our societies.
        Extending those inevitably has a gender dimension, because so much of the work women do is underpaid and undervalued.
        Recovering better goes beyond governments. The private sector, academia, institutions of all kinds and civil society must be fully engaged.
        It is essential to protect and expand civic space so that civil society organizations can play their full part.
        We must also emerge from this crisis with women's equal leadership and representation.
        The past months have seen a growing recognition in the media and through academic research highlighting what we have known anecdotally for years: that women leaders are extremely effective. Women Heads of State, Ministers of Health, health workers and community leaders are winning widespread recognition for their empathy, compassion, communication and evidence-based decision-making.
        Their actions are showing the value of inclusivity. It stands to reason: doubling the resources, capacity and expertise we put into decision-making benefits everyone.
        And yet less than eight percent of Heads of State, less than 25 percent of parliamentarians, and less than 30 percent of decision-makers on health care are women. Bias and discrimination are harming us all. And again, this is essentially a question of power.
        That is why I made bringing more women into leadership positions in the United Nations one of my first priorities.
        I am proud that we achieved gender parity at the beginning of 2020 with 90 women and 90 men as full-time senior leaders, two years ahead of the target date I had set. We have a roadmap in place for gender parity at all levels of the United Nations in the coming years, and I will push hard for its implementation.
        We owe this not only to our women staff, but to the people we serve.
        Organizations and companies that include equal numbers of women at all levels are more effective, efficient and resilient to sudden shocks.
        This is also why I have made temporary special measures a signature issue of my Call to Action on Human Rights. Unless we use quotas and temporary special measures to remove the biases and obstacles to women's equal participation, women will never realize their full rights, and societies will never reap the benefits of equality and inclusion.
        Dear advocates,
        While the COVID-19 pandemic is at the top of our concerns, we will not be distracted from all our other goals.
        This year is an important one for gender equality, marking the 25th anniversary of the Beijing Declaration, the 20th anniversary of Security Council Resolution 1325 on Women, Peace and Security, and the first year of the Decade of Action on the Sustainable Development Goals.
        In February, I set out our priorities and agenda in a Speech on Women and Power at the New School here in New York.
        We remain determined to advance women's priorities and to ensure their equal rights and participation in the peace and security agenda, on climate change, on building inclusive economies, and on reducing and eliminating the digital divide so that women have an equal role in designing the technologies of the future.
        Dear activists, dear friends,
        We are going through difficult times, and nobody expects them to end soon.
        But I want to reassure you, and through you, women everywhere, that the United Nations stands with you and is working for you every day, around the world.
        As we mark our 75th anniversary, we need your voices and engagement more than ever.
        The United Nations is changing, and we count on you to be part of that change.
        In the past 75 years, we have seen successive waves of advocacy for human rights and women's rights. Today, young women like Nadia Murad and Malala are redefining leadership for a new generation.
        At a time of growing nationalism and populism, the forces ranged against global solidarity can seem overwhelming.
        But if we are to meet today's global challenges, from the climate crisis to growing inequality and the digital divide, we must join together, rejecting sexist and ageist stereotypes that prevent women '' and men '' from realizing our full humanity.
        I invite you to join us, and I promise you that we will listen.
        Today, as I mentioned in the beginning I am here with the main objective of listening, and I look forward to hearing your views. Thank you.

        Westfield Washington Schools has hired a new director of communications. Joshua Andrews began his role Sept. 1. He replaces co-directors Carrie Cason and Kate Snedeker, who job-shared the position the past four years.
        Andrews has more than a decade of experience in public relations, executive communications and brand management. Previously, he worked in public relations for the Guantanamo Bay detention centers.
        Andrews graduated from Rutgers University with a bachelor's degree in psychology. He spent 12 years in the Army National Guard, where he served two tours in support of Operation Enduring Freedom, did public affairs for New Jersey's Dept. of Military and Veteran's Affairs and supported Hurricane Sandy relief efforts.
        ''We are thrilled that Josh is joining our amazing team,'' Supt. Sherry Grate stated. ''He brings a multitude of talents and experience to the team which will help further our mission and our abilities to reach our community and help share our story.''
      Prof: 'Nothing wrong with' murder of Trump supporter from a 'moral perspective'

        University of Rhode Island Professor Erik Loomis appeared to defend the murder of Aaron "Jay" Danielson, the member of the right-wing group Patriot Prayer, during recent social unrest in Portland, Oregon.
        In 2012, Loomis came under scrutiny after he called for NRA executive Wayne LaPierre's "head on a stick" following the shooting massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Connecticut. Just weeks later, in January 2013, Loomis said, ''I know the central mission of the Republican Party is to have a membership made up entirely of old rural white people."
        "He killed a fascist. I see nothing wrong with it"
        Now, Loomis is once again under fire after publishing a blog post titled "Why was Michael Reinoehl killed?" Reinoehl is the man suspected of fatally shooting Danielson. Reinoehl was killed as federal authorities tried to arrest him.
        ''Michael Reinoehl is the guy who killed the fascist in Portland last week. He admitted it and said he was scared the cops would kill him. Well, now the cops have killed him," Loomis wrote in the September 4 blog post.
        [RELATED: VIDEO: College students defend looting, say riots 'justified']
        ''I am extremely anti-conspiracy theory. But it's not a conspiracy theory at this point in time to wonder if the cops simply murdered him. The police is [sic] shot through with fascists from stem to stern. They were openly working with the fascists in Portland, as they were in Kenosha which led to dead protestors," Loomis continued.
        In the comment section of the blog post, one reader challenged Loomis by writing, "Erik, he shot and killed a guy," referring to Reinoehl.
        Loomis responded by saying, ''He killed a fascist. I see nothing wrong with it, at least from a moral perspective.'' He further added that ''tactically, that's a different story. But you could say the same thing about John Brown.''
        [RELATED: SURVEY: Americans support 1A rights, but don't know what they are]
        Loomis furthered compared Reinoehl to Brown who in the 1800s used violence as a means of fighting slavery.
        One reader then asked, ''What's so great about assassinating a rando fascist? And in the absence of a sound affirmative justification, it should be easy to envision the drawbacks.''
        Loomis was quick to reply with, ''What's so great about assassinating random slaveholders, said liberals to John Brown.''
        In a separate comment, Loomis wrote, "the problem with violence is that it usually, though not always, is a bad idea. That I agree with."
        Loomis said in another comment, "Yes, sometimes violence is necessary, say to avoid greater physical harm, i.e. self-defense, or to defeat a literal army of fascists who are trying to kill people. But, ideologically, I think the idea that violence is good if it's against our political enemies is a core part of fascism, and so the ideological opposition to that idea should be its opposite - that violence as a general rule is bad, unless the specific context of that situation requires a violent response."
        Loomis made headlines Tuesday for another comment he made on Twitter. In response to MSNBC host Chris Hayes tweeting, "Trump is objectively pro-Covid," Loomis tweeted "yeah, I mean, once Republicans figured out COVID was going to affect people of color and the poor disproportionately, they stopped caring about doing anything about it."

        "Also, thanks for the reminder to teach my students this semester just how horribly disgusting the Young Americans for Fascism is and has been since its beginnings in the cesspool of William F. Buckley's diseased racist brain," Loomis tweeted.

      Are NBA TV Ratings Really 'Big Trouble' for Basketball? '' Variety
        Link to Article

        Tue, 08 Sep 2020 11:52
        President Trump attacked the NBA last week, saying the league is in ''big trouble'' and blaming its supposedly poor ratings on the players kneeling during the national anthem to protest police brutality and racial inequality.
        ''It's been horrible for basketball. Look at the basketball ratings. People are angry about it,'' Trump said during an interview on Clay Travis' radio show. ''They have enough politics with guys like me. They don't need more. There was a nastiness about the NBA and the way it was done. The NBA is in trouble. Big trouble.''
        However, making a concrete assessment of the NBA ratings since re-start, or finding one single reason for their decline, is far from simple.
        According to Nielsen numbers, NBA viewership (P2+) was down around 13% versus last season before the shutdown (prior to March 12). The first week of games since the re-start were down 4% from the NBA's pre-corona average, however, primetime games on ESPN and TNT in that same time period were up 6% in viewership when compared with the first chunk of the season.
        In fact, according to industry sources, NBA viewership post-shutdown is up 8% versus the prior year, when compared with spring 2019 end-of-season games. But it is worth noting that number is comparing the same games and windows as last season, meaning that it doesn't take the afternoon or pre-primetime games the league has been forced to schedule into account, given that there are no direct comparisons.
        Popular on Variety
        ''There is no proper context to compare the current NBA viewership post-COVID to any regular season,'' says Tom McGovern, president of Omnicom Group's sports media division Optimum Sports. ''You've got an increased number of broadcast windows and start times that are an anomaly for this current season. The number of windows alone is going to dilute your average rating, you'll have no West Coast prime time.''
        Sources also point out that 8% bump is not as large as the spikes that other sports have been noting since re-starting. For instance, the NHL is up 57% versus the end of last year's regular season, and MLB games so far this season are up 18% on last year.
        It's true that one might have expected the NBA's numbers to rocket on its return, given how starved of live action sports fans were for several months.
        The first night of bubble games was headlined by a mouth-watering encounter between LeBron James' Los Angeles Lakers and Kawhi Leonard's Los Angeles Clippers. The game was a nail-biter, yet the numbers (3.4 million viewers) were the lowest for any Lakers-Clippers game so far this season.
        From the beginning of re-start, it became abundantly clear that NBA games weren't necessarily going to hit the heights of an average regular season.
        There are plenty of possible explanations for this, beyond the President's hunch that it's to do with the protests.
        ''Similar to the NFL when similar statements were made with Colin Kaepernick, we never really saw any direct indication of audience decline directly related to the protest,'' says McGovern. ''There are a lot of reasons why they had decline, but you couldn't really say that was because of protests.''
        One such explanation could simply be that folks just aren't watching as much TV (at least not in the traditional cable and broadcast sense) this summer. PUT (People Using Television) levels have taken a much-documented tumble across the board board over the last couple months. So far this summer, PUT levels are down around 18% compared to the end of March and April, which is when these games would have been airing in a regular season.
        ''The biggest competition right now is summer. There's a reason why most sports don't play in July and August, it's because PUTs are down and you're competing with lifestyle,'' McGovern says. ''I would say anybody who's looking at average rating and say it's down or up would be irresponsible. There's no context to it, there are no comparables.''
        The packed schedule that the NBA has been forced into as a result of COVID could also be a contributing factor. Many of the games are being played in the early afternoon or late morning, depending on which coast you're on, which obviously would not be the case normally. Take the the first round of playoff games which begin next week as an example. Just yesterday, the Utah Jazz and the Denver Nuggets tipped off at 10:30am PT, while later in the week, the Indiana Pacers and the Miami Heat will play the second game in their series at 10am PT on a Thursday.
        No disrespect meant to those four teams, but does anyone really expect those games to draw a similar number of viewers than in primetime?
        Looking at what happened in the season prior to re-start and the results themselves in Florida could also shed some light on why the NBA re-start hasn't been a ratings slam dunk.
        The Golden State Warriors, a team which no NBA fan needs reminding has dominated the league in recent years, and their eye-catching brand of basketball didn't even make it to the bubble. Steph Curry and co. have been a reliable ratings banker for half a decade, but their miserable 15-50 season has surely cost the league ratings-wise, both before and after lockdown.
        Then there's the fact that the main aspirants to the Toronto Raptors' NBA crown have thus far failed to build up steam in the bubble. The Lakers have gone 3-5 in the bubble, the Bucks 3-5, and the Clippers 4-3 (excluding yesterday's playoff game).
        Having no crowd at the games and low stakes for seeding places hasn't necessarily made the NBA the kind of must-watch TV that it has been at times over the past few years. Perhaps when the business end of the competition begins, and if LeBron and Kawhi face off again when the chips are down, those numbers will pick up. Maybe someone should ask the President's opinion on the matter?
        Following that interview with Trump, Travis tweeted out numbers comparing the total viewership of Fox News shows, like Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity's, with the viewership from NBA games they went up against in the week of Aug. 10.
        ''Head to head on Monday night on cable: Tucker Carlson viewership: 4.5 million. Lakers-Nuggets viewership: 1.5 million. Head-to-head on Tuesday night: Sean Hannity: 4.6 million, Blazers-Mavs: 930k. Yikes, NBA,'' Travis tweeted.
        Dallas Mavericks owner and ''Shark Tank'' star Mark Cuban, who has been engaging in Twitter spats with Travis and other conservatives on the subject, countered by pointing out the NBA season would have been over almost exactly three months ago by now.
        ''You do realize that was the day Joe Biden picked Kamala Harris,'' Cuban added in another tweet, referencing Travis' comparison between Hannity and the Blazers-Mavs game.
        While several Fox News shows may have beaten the NBA in the coveted 18-49 demographic on that same night, as Travis also pointed out, the league has been trouncing Fox News in the same demo on nights when the games have been broadcast in primetime on ESPN and TNT. In those time frames, the NBA has been 145% larger than Fox News in the younger demo.
        But of course Fox News has been crushing the NBA in older demographics, and on, and on this whole argument could go. The point here is not only that we're comparing apples and oranges, but also that it depends entirely on which way you slice the fruit.
        ''Why would I ever compare the two,'' says McGovern. ''There are certain marketers who find the Fox News audience important, or any other news audience, but those are not necessarily the same viewers, the same brands that are working with the NBA.''
        The league's numbers might continue to deflate a little, or they might rebound. The NBA's less than stellar re-start numbers could be due in some part to the players' protests, but it is both highly unlikely and impossible to prove.
        One person who we know for certain will not be watching is the President, who previously said ''what I do is personally turn off the game'' when he sees the players kneeling.
        However, Trump changing channels will certainly not make a huge dent in the NBA's typical viewership, as LeBron James himself summed up nicely.
        ''I really don't think the basketball community are sad about losing his viewership, him viewing the game,'' James said during an interview week before last. ''And that's all I got to say.''

        Your 2020 NBA playoffs are here.
        As part of our ongoing initiative to fight for social justice and take the next step in our pledge supporting the Black Lives Matter movement, our new playoff campaign will be United in Black: The 2020 HEAT Playoffs. As the postseason begins August 17, and the nation grapples with uncomfortable and overdue change, we decided to repurpose our playoff push and reignite a focus on maintaining the momentum of social justice.
        Since 2004, we've used a team color as a unifying symbol among fans. HEAT Nation has been encouraged to wear the color on playoff game days in what has become arguably the most popular fan tradition in sports. And as the team takes the court for the 2020 Playoffs, championship aspirations remain, but the unifying symbol of a fan base behind color takes on added importance.
        ''We are incredibly excited to be back in the playoff mix and we can't wait to share this experience with our fans. But in the wake of this summer of unrest amid vivid examples of social injustice and racial inequality, we recognized an opportunity to use the platform of the NBA Playoffs to continue, and extend, the conversation,'' said Eric Woolworth, President of The HEAT Group's Business Operations. ''When our team hits the bright lights and the big stage that is the NBA Playoffs, it'll play with two purposes: the main thing and the right thing.
        ''We are united in our quest to achieve both goals.''
        As part of the campaign, HEAT players will wear United in Black shooting shirts during warm-ups and throughout the game. These shooting shirts will be available for purchase. Proceeds from the sale of the shirt, along with others in the Black Lives Matter clothing collection released July 30, will benefit Black Girls Code, Health in the Hood and the Florida Rights Restoration Coalition. Fans are encouraged to purchase the shirts online at TheMiamiHEATStore.com . Additionally, the team will wear their Icon Edition Miami Black uniforms as both the home and road team as much as possible throughout the playoffs. And while the team competes in Orlando, a Black Lives Matter banner will adorn the iconic face of AmericanAirlines Arena.

      How an overload of riot porn is driving conflict in the streets | MIT Technology Review

        When Kyle Rittenhouse shot and murdered protesters in Kenosha, Wisconsin, it wasn't just the act of a lone vigilante; it was a direct consequence of white militia groups' organizing on social media.
        Since June, right-wing media makers have recorded and circulated videos of violent altercations at protests in cities including New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, and Portland, Oregon. Fed into a media ecosystem with an established bias toward highlighting violence and rioting, the videos have mobilized white militia and vigilante groups to take up arms against Black Lives Matter and ''antifa'' protesters. This feedback circuit has created a self-fulfilling cycle where white vigilantes feel justified in menacing and physically attacking racial justice protesters'--and inspire others to do the same.
        The role of videoResearch on social movements has long focused on the ways that media mobilizes people to take direct action. Audio and video clips from protests can evoke an emotional and visceral reaction in those who see them. Over the last decade, we've seen this emerge most often with calls for racial and economic justice.
        This past summer, the recorded murder of George Floyd'--just one in a seemingly endless line of merciless and vicious events perpetrated by police against Black people, from Selma to Mike Brown, from Rodney King to Sandra Bland and Jacob Blake'--motivated millions of people worldwide to protest against police brutality.
        It isn't just racial justice protests that benefit from the outrage caused by video. In September 2011, very few people cared about Occupy Wall Street'--a bunch of hippies, anarchists, and freaks were sleeping in a park in Manhattan. But after a video of young white women being ''kettled'' and pepper-sprayed by NYPD officer Anthony Bologna ricocheted across social media, thousands of people set up Occupy encampments across the globe.
        Until that moment, the movement was not being widely covered in the mainstream press, but the video's circulation compelled larger media organizations to pay attention. We don't know what would have happened in the absence of that video, but over the course of four years I spent interviewing Occupy protesters about their experience, many recalled it as the motivating factor in them getting into the streets.
        And visuals can be just as motivating for the right wing'--recently, perhaps even more so.
        Because right-wing reactionaries do not have the same kind of experience in organizing street protests as the left, they instead rely heavily on social media'--particularly Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter'--to mobilize crowds. Their efforts to counter the wave of public support for Black Lives Matter protests have made extensive use of this tactic.
        As a scholar of social movements and media studies, I see an alarming split between the types of content consumed by right-wing reactionaries and left-wing social justice advocates. Given the way media accounts shape public perceptions about protest and define who has recourse to the ''legitimate use of violence,'' the kinds of content shared within these hyperpartisan media systems play a powerful yet often invisible role in mobilizing white vigilante groups. If social-media companies do not act swiftly to stop calls for violence against protesters, the situation can only get worse.
        The rise of riot pornSince the George Floyd protests, conservative media outlets including Fox News (particularly Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity), One America News, Glenn Beck's BlazeTV, and right-wing YouTubers have been covering Black Lives Matter and other left-wing protests daily, specifically highlighting instances of violence, fighting, and property damage. This coverage has come to dominate the right-wing narrative in a new way, flipping the script to suggest that Black protesters'--demonstrating because they fear police violence'--are themselves a threat to white people.
        Mainstream media bias toward covering violence in protests is well studied, best encapsulated by the saying ''If it bleeds, it leads.'' Most protests are largely peaceful, but ''Citizens gather, grieve, and leave'' is no story at all. This directs a disproportionate amount of attention across the entire media ecosystem to violent protesters. Now, with social media as a broadcast system, the right-wing media has upped the ante.
        According to analysis I conducted using MediaCloud, a research tool from MIT and Harvard, right-wing media outlets wrote five to six times more articles about Seattle's ''Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone'' than did center or left media. What has been a minor storyline among left-wing audiences has been dramatically overemphasized by right-wing media because these protests provided plenty of visceral content for online content creators. In one case, Fox News manipulated photos to make protesters appear more ominous and threatening, while other right-wing outlets falsely reported that the occupying protesters were extorting local businesses.
        These narratives have been intensified and supplemented by the work of right-wing adversarial media-makers like Elijah Schaffer and Andy Ngo, who collect videos of conflict at public protests and recirculate them to their online audiences. Both have even gone ''undercover'' by posing as protesters to capture footage for their channels, seeking to name and shame those marching. Their videos are edited, decontextualized, and shared among audiences hungry for a new fix of ''riot porn,'' which instantly goes viral across the right-wing media ecosystem with the aid of influential pundits and politicians, including President Donald Trump. The footage has a hypnotic, almost balletic quality, designed to influence and overwhelm the sense-making capacity of watchers consuming it from a safe distance online.
        Riot porn is different from videos of abuse and violence carried out by police, and we should not confuse one for the other. In the recording of the George Floyd murder, the video mobilized hundreds of thousands of people outraged that Floyd's killer had not been arrested. With riot porn, what moves someone from watching to showing up is the potential for participating in a violent altercation. The motivating factor is the hope to live out fantasies of taking justice into their own hands, la Dirty Harry, the film series about a rogue cop who shirks protocol and murders at will.
        Judging by the reactions shared by followers of right-wing influencers, riot porn further enrages and traumatizes these audiences from afar, inflaming their perceptions of risk and danger. In chat rooms, watchers actively cheer as cops and other aggressors brutalize Black Lives Matter activists. These emotional reactions help develop an unshakable trust between the partisan content creators and the content consumers.
        Propaganda machineOutrage contagion is why the McCloskeys, the husband-and-wife duo who pointed guns at Black Lives Matter marchers in St. Louis, were motivated to take their bizarre stand. It's also why the couple were invited to address the Republican National Convention'--an audience being encouraged to vote for Donald Trump's reelection. They spoke on topics such as guns, property, and the threat posed by ''Marxist liberals.'' Peering into the camera from a velvet couch, they read from the teleprompter: ''What you saw happen to us could just as easily happen to any of you who are watching from quiet neighborhoods across our country '... Make no mistake: no matter where you live, your family will not be safe in the radical Democrats' America '... You've seen us on your TV screens and Twitter feeds. You know we're not the kind of people who back down.''
        They are both the product of riot porn and participants in creating the next cycle of it. First, they consumed coverage of the St. Louis protests, during which a 7-Eleven was burned. This, the McCloskeys claim, prompted them to put fire extinguishers in every room and keep a rifle ready. When Black Lives Matter activists marched on their street, they reacted as if it were a death threat. It wasn't, and their armed display resulted in felony charges. Right-wing media and Republicans have turned them into heroes alongside Rittenhouse, affectionately known as the ''Kenosha Kid.''
        The problem isn't simply that riot porn exists, or that people with divergent opinions can interpret videos differently depending on their social-media feeds.
        And it's not just that social-media platforms don't know what to do with white vigilante organizing. Although they clearly don't: Facebook's attempt to limit the spread of propaganda about Rittenhouse by blocking searches on his name is a drastic solution to a problem of its own making. Facebook took no action on 455 flags marking the Kenosha Guard's event page as potentially dangerous. Memes in support of Rittenhouse and calls for armed MAGA rallies are on the rise.
        The real difficulty is that competing accounts circulate in parallel universes that are not even close to balanced in their reach. Kevin Roose of the New York Times pointed out that the majority of people on Facebook are witnessing a radically different narrative from the one presented to consumers of mainstream media. In August, he tweeted, CNN saw 21 million Facebook interactions; the right-wing commentator Ben Shapiro gathered 55 million. This doesn't mean there's a silent majority of right-wing media consumers'--in fact, it means that the right-wing media ecosystem continues to be dense and insular, which makes the propaganda feedback loop much more effective at shaping audience perceptions and world views. Harvard researchers Yochai Benkler, Rob Faris, and Hal Roberts have described this effect in their study ''Networked Propaganda.''
        Escalation, not reconciliation It's been almost three months since an independent group of United Nations experts called on the US government to conduct an independent investigation into racial terror. The reaction to the murder of George Floyd suggested for a moment that the US public was awakened to their country's horrors and might be mobilized to do something.
        And yet, as the events of the last week have shown, wave after wave of white vigilante violence has followed. Several cities and towns have become treacherous terrain, where militias, MAGA groups, and conspiracists are carrying out their civil war fantasies by attacking Black Lives Matter protesters as police look on. The optics are reminiscent of the Freedom Rides in the 1960s, when police turned away as local white vigilantes attacked civil rights advocates.
        Last weekend in Portland, a long caravan of Trump supporters arrived with blacked-out license plates, paintball guns, actual guns, and bear mace; they drove their trucks straight at protesters. Some of these crimes were streamed live on Facebook and YouTube. Trump later justified their actions, saying that ''paint is a defensive mechanism; paint is not bullets.'' That same night, a member of the far-right group Patriot Prayer was murdered, but no details on the shooter are available. Nevertheless, the media narrative on the right is clear: antifa must have done it.
        By using riot porn to incite fear in white people, the right-wing media ecosystem converts the real pain experienced by Black Americans into fodder for deranged, paranoid fantasies that white vigilantes must take up the functions of the police. Social-media companies need to work actively to prevent militias and vigilante groups from staging these armed standoffs. This includes shutting down event pages that are used as central organizing hubs and removing the accounts of those who are calling for physical violence. What played out in Portland and Kenosha this week is another confirmation that racial terror is real and getting worse.

        Stories of odd menstrual cycles are emerging out of Seattle among residents exposed to police-deployed tear gas during Black Lives Matter protests.
        More than a dozen protesters, reporters and even residents living near demonstrations have reported weird periods after their exposure, KUOW, the local NPR station, reported.
        One woman, Jessi Murray, 32, told the outlet she had three periods in a 28-day window after the gas wafted into her apartment window when it was deployed nearby her home. And a transgender man, Matthew, told KUOW he had his first period in three years after getting gassed at multiple protests he attended.
        Medical experts raised red flags to the station, warning since the chemicals commonly used by police departments in the United States, known as CS gas, were originally designed for war, there has not been enough studies to show its impact on women.
        Dr. Lora Shahine, a local fertility doctor, told NPR the ''extremely stressful'' nature of the world during the pandemic, and recent civil unrest, could disrupt periods. But she also voice concern over the lack of information regarding long-term impacts of tear gas.
        ''We're in a unique situation where people who might be protesting on a really regular basis might be exposed to [tear gas] more than we've ever seen before,'' Shahine said.
        ''Especially in the United States, chemicals are considered safe until proven not safe,'' she said. ''We should really rethink these chemicals because we haven't studied them in humans. So how do we know that they're safe?''

        Way back in time, almost 12,500 years ago, the first canines were becoming domesticated. Through toil and hardship, people had earned the trust of our now beloved best friends.
        The symbiotic relationship between dog and woman was very groundbreaking, as humans had never been this close to an animal before.
        Humans would provide shelter and care for the dogs, and in turn, the dogs would hunt and fetch firewood for humans. The reason I am detailing this history for you is so everyone understands the importance of the events that took place all these years ago.
        According to bio-archaeologist Gregor Larson, the domestication of dogs started in 2 places: Eastern and Western Eurasia. The Eurasian people worked non stop to gain and maintain the trust with these gorgeous creatures, but it was all stolen from them.
        The greedy actions by white people stained the history books forever.
        What actually happened? Shortly after the Eurasian people worked so hard to train and bond with wolves, most of them were shipped off and given to Europeans.
        These filthy white savages took the work and credit from the Eurasian people and branded these magnificent creatures as their own.
        The need for white people to claim premade or pre-discovered things is not isolated to just this incident. Countless times in history, whites have been caught stealing the work and talent of POC for their own success.
        Honestly speaking, we shouldn't be surprised that white people would steal the domestication of dogs as well. Based on historical knowledge, this behavior will not slow down within the white community.
        How does this affect us right now? If you are white and own a dog, you are openly participating and advocating for cultural appropriation and colonialism. Reinforcing this culture is NOT acceptable and will come with its repercussions.
        Dogs are and always will be the living reminder of how tainted our history is as a whole. POC deserve to exclusively own dogs as a form of restitution for their stolen ancestor's work. Supporting the idea of white dog ownership is spitting on the grave of past POC generations.
        With International Dog Day coming up, it is important we remember and advocate for the work of POC, and never let this unbalanced history be forgotten.
        If you are white and own a canine, please consider donating them to a local POC family or non kill shelter so it can truly find the perfect home.

        DC Comics is set to release their new graphic novel which will celebrate the "Wonder Women of History."
        The 17 "real-world heroes" will include liberal women like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), and even fake Native American Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA).

        The list also includes other leftists like Ruth Bader Ginsburg, tennis player Serena Williams and Beyonce.
        ''Beyonc(C), Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Serena Williams, and more will be spotlighted by DC as in the upcoming anthology ''Wonder Women of History.'' Taking a cue from its popular superhero Wonder Woman, DC will spotlight 17 real-world heroes in the fields of science, social justice activism, politics, sports, and entertainment,'' reported Games Radar.
        ''Wonder Woman has been an inspiration for decades, and while not everyone would choose her star-spangled outfit for themselves, her compassion and fairness are worthy of emulation,'' DC's website states. According to Bounding Into Comics the comics will be separated into 17 different stories ''''tales of the real-world heroes who take up Diana's mantle and work in the fields of science, social justice activism, diplomacy and more!''

        The Daily Wire reports:
        The anthology has an all-female creative team, led by Laurie Halse Anderson, best known for her young-adult novels. Each individual entry into the anthology will be written and drawn by a team of female-identifying and nonbinary individuals. The book will also include ''pin-ups.''
        Both Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez have appeared in comic books before, though not in works released by a major comic book publisher like DC.
        Bounding Into Comics notes that ''Devil's Due published Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the Freshman Force: New Party, Who Dis?, in an attempt 'to create something that celebrates the fresh new energy and diversity of the stagnated legislative body, and help some good causes at the same time.''' The ''Notorious RBG'' has her own biographical graphic novel, and is the subject of at least two other independent comic books, ''Becoming RBG'' and ''I Dissent,'' a comic book aimed at empowering young girls.
        DC's iconic Wonder Woman has been the subject of some controversy of late, largely because DC Comics has been working to expand the franchise among social justice activists. Last month, DC announced that it would commission several variant covers for the official ''Wonder Woman 1984'' comic book to go along with the feature film, ''Wonder Woman 1984,'' due out in theaters in late 2020 or early 2021 (it is currently scheduled for release in late October, but that is subject to change because of coronavirus-related restrictions on movie theaters).
        At least one version of the cover, depicting Diana as something of a hipster received produced ''extremely negative reactions'' among fans of the character, according to Bleeding Cool.
        The ''Wonder Women of History'' anthology will hit comic book stores in early December.

      Film Academy Sets Inclusion Requirements for Oscars, Will Take Full Effect in 2024 | Hollywood Reporter

        Wed, 09 Sep 2020 12:57
        "To encourage equitable representation on and off screen in order to better reflect the diversity of the movie-going audience," films will have to meet minimum requirements pertaining to representation and inclusion to be eligible for the best picture Oscar beginning with the 96th Oscar race (which will recognize achievements from 2024 and be held in 2025), the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced Tuesday.
        In the meantime, an Academy Inclusion Standards form will have to be submitted to the Academy for a film to be considered for the 94th Oscars (recognizing films from 2021 released after Feb. 28) and 95th Oscars (recognizing films from 2021), although meeting inclusion thresholds will not yet be a requirement. And no action will be required for films wishing to compete for the 93rd Oscars, which are to be held on April 25.
        The new requirements '-- which were announced just shy of the five-year anniversary of the #OscarsSoWhite controversy, and three months after the Academy announced its Academy Aperture 25 initiative '-- were determined by a task force headed by Academy governors DeVon Franklin and Jim Gianopulos and were modeled after a template inspired by the British Film Institute (BFI) Diversity Standards, which are used to determine certain funding eligibility in the UK and eligibility in some categories of the British Academy of Film and Television (BAFTA) Awards.
        The Academy also consulted with the Producers Guild of America (PGA), as it presently does for Oscars eligibility.
        "The aperture must widen to reflect our diverse global population in both the creation of motion pictures and in the audiences who connect with them," Academy president David Rubin and CEO Dawn Hudson said in a joint statement. "The Academy is committed to playing a vital role in helping make this a reality. We believe these inclusion standards will be a catalyst for long-lasting, essential change in our industry."
        Starting with the 96th Oscars, a film will have to meet at least two of four of the following standards to be eligible for best picture.
        STANDARD A: ON-SCREEN REPRESENTATION, THEMES AND NARRATIVES
        To achieve Standard A, the film must meet ONE of the following criteria:
        A1. Lead or significant supporting actors At least one of the lead actors or significant supporting actors is from an underrepresented racial or ethnic group.

      Washington and Lee University Offers Course on 'How to Overthrow the State'

        Washington and Lee University in Lexington, Virginia, is offering a course entitled ''How to Overthrow the State,'' which includes encouraging students to engage in ''producing a Manifesto,'' and ''writing a persuasive essay on rewriting history and confronting memory.''
        A course being offered at Washington and Lee for the fall semester focuses on encouraging students to think of ways they can ''overthrow a sitting government,'' according to the course description on the university's website.
        ''This course places each student at the head of a popular revolutionary movement aiming to overthrow a sitting government and forge a better society,'' reads the course description.
        ''How will you attain power? How will you communicate with the masses? How do you plan on improving the lives of the people? How will you deal with the past?'' the description adds.
        The course, ''How to Overthrow the State,'' is worth 3 credits toward an accredited college degree.
        Along with how to lead a revolution, students will also be studying Marxist revolutionary and assassin Che Guevara, and will be tasked with ''producing a Manifesto'' and ''writing a persuasive essay on rewriting history.''
        ''From Franz Fanon to Che Guevara to Mohamed Gandhi and others, we explore examples of revolutionary thought and action from across the Global South,'' continues the course description.
        ''Students engage these texts by participating in a variety of writing exercises, such as producing a Manifesto, drafting a white paper that critically analyzes a particular issue, and writing a persuasive essay on rewriting history and confronting memory,'' the description adds.
        Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk reacted to the course, telling Breitbart News, ''this is disgraceful. We must stop brushing aside these egregious examples of campus craziness as isolated incidents.''
        ''The lessons of the past few months prove that these ideas don't stay on campus, they spill out onto the streets,'' he added. ''This is a prime example of the intellectual rot that has infected the academy in America. The Trump administration should investigate and determine if this is the type of scholarship federal funds should be used to subsidize.''
        In July, the faculty of Washington and Lee voted to remove the name of Robert E. Lee from the university's name. But the name-removal suggestions didn't stop with the Confederate general.
        Later, Washington and Lee associate professor of law Brandon Hasbrouck argued that his peers have not taken their fight for social justice far enough, proclaiming that the school should remove George Washington's name as well.
        ''It is worth exploring why the faculty has decided to make a collective statement on Lee and why the faculty has not included a demand to drop Washington in their petition,'' said Hasbrouck. ''It is no longer acceptable, profitable or convenient to be associated with Lee but it is for Washington.''
        Washington and Lee University did not respond to Breitbart News' request for clarification on whether the students will be trained to overthrow only the federal government or also the state of Virginia, as well as on the educational merit of the course, and how it will shape Washington and Lee students to be successful Americans after graduation.

      Huawei back doors
        The analysis of Hauwei devices was conducted by MIT's Lincoln Laboratory, and I could not find it in the public domain. I even scanned the documentcloud.org The Huawei issue has multiple layers, most are cultural in nature, below are key consideration:
        1. Hauwei does not acknowledge NIST as an authority, and thus will not acknowledge FISMA or OMB M-16-04; a requirements for doing business with Government entities or infrastructures. [They do not demonstrate a concern for exploits and vulnerabilities or take a proactive position:ignorance or intent?]
        2. Hauwei has multi-hard coded embedded SU accounts within the chipsets, which Hauwei disputes can be used for espionage.
        Google FCC reference: WRITTEN EX PARTE SUBMISSION OF HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD.
        3. Hauwei has built and empire on stolen Intellectual Property

        4. Hauwei engages in unethical and illegal activity as noted in the above reference, instructing employees to obfuscate and obstruct information requests at all costs
        5. Hauwei has been engaged in cyber espionage via Elemental/Super Micro Computer, Inc. contract to source servers to Amazon. A microscopic chip was discovered with backdoor capabilities, keeping in mind the Tier 1 supplier (Elemental) provided devices using Micro Computer, Inc. components to USG agencies.

      Huawei Suddenly Strikes At Google With New 'Fight' To Beat Android

        Zak Doffman Contributor Opinions expressed by Forbes Contributors are their own. I write about security and surveillance.
        Xinhua News Agency/Getty Images
        ''The world has been suffering for a long time,'' rotating Huawei chairman Guo Ping told employees during a pep talk this week, referring to the lock Google has on the Android ecosystem. And so ended the executive silence on President Trump's latest salvo, cutting Huawei's access to the chipsets powering its flagship smartphones. Guo admitted the new sanctions would ''cause certain difficulties'... especially for high-end mobile phones,'' but assured employees that ''I believe we can solve them.''
        The focus of Guo's remarks was Huawei's answer to the loss of Google from those mobile phones. Its alternative has been in the works since last year'--part HarmonyOS operating system that can run across phones and other smart devices, but mostly the HMS replacement for Google Mobile Services, the apps and underlying services that drive the Android ecosystem. Huawei now has 600 million users on its ecosystem. This is a change that impacts all of those who stay with the brand.
        ''The world is also looking forward to a new open system,'' Guo said. ''And since Huawei helped Android to succeed, why not make our own system successful?'' The devil's very much in the detail here. HMS may be bigger, brighter and bolder, as Huawei claims, but the timing of its full HarmonyOS deployment on a smartphone remains unclear. Reports that this would happen by the end of this calendar year, perhaps as soon as with the launch of the imminent Mate 40, have been denied.
        ''HMS must have a 'Foolish Old Man Moving Mountain Spirit','' Guo said to rally his audience, ''no matter how high the mountain is, dig an inch or less, persist and fight for a long time, we will definitely succeed.''
        There is nothing especially new in these bullish HMS remarks. What is new, though, is the idea that anything can still be on track despite the admission from the company that its stockpiled custom chipsets will only see it through the launch of the Mate 40, with analysis assuming depletion early-ish next year. And right now there is no Plan-B, given that Trump has cut access to third-party alternatives.
        ''Don't waste an opportunity in a crisis,'' Guo Ping said of the latest U.S. attack, telling his audience that Huawei will invest heavily in HiSilicon to overcome the impact of the U.S. ban, albeit that will take time. ''HiSilicon will grow stronger in several years,'' he said, suggesting that the U.S. had created a situation that would ultimately work in Huawei's favour, as long as everyone seized upon it.
        Guo described the company's decision to launch HMS as ''brave,'' and that ''it was not an easy decision for us, as a smartphone company, to develop our own Huawei Mobile Services ecosystem. It's very difficult and very challenging. But we delivered a better-than-expected script for the first year.''
        Huawei has maintained throughout its time on the U.S. blacklist that it wants nothing more than a return to normal'--where normal is Google restored to its new devices. But the longer this situation continues, the more one can assume Huawei isn't going to backtrack on HMS, not given that it secures a future for the company's smartphones that's not reliant on U.S. tech.
        Until now, Huawei execs have been notably diplomatic over the loss of Google and their preference being to restore the relationship between the two organizations. That's why these comments are so remarkable'--it's a surprisingly hard stance with surprisingly emotive language to take over Google and the competitive landscape that may now emerge.
        As hard as replacing Google is'--and many analysts suggest it is near impossible, the chipset issue is much worse. But Huawei looks intent on playing a long-game, with the balance sheet to do so. As reported by China's state-controlled Global Times, Guo ''compared cultivating HMS as a protracted war that Huawei is destined to win in the end,'' telling his audience (and Google) that ''it's plausible to have two systems in a world. And Huawei will be able to survive and take the lead even in an extremely hostile environment.''

      China's Growing Agriculture Crisis | New Eastern Outlook

        China's Growing Agriculture Crisis P 25.08.2020 U F. William Engdahl
        For the past months the Peoples' Republic of China has been subject to one after the other devastating shocks to its agriculture sector. A deadly outbreak of African Swine Fever that halved China's huge pig herds in 2019, was followed by infestation from a plague of fall armyworms (FAW) which reached China in December, 2018 and now threaten China's corn belt. Now the worst floods in some 60 years is wiping out major rice and other crops in central China along the Yangtze and other rivers. Food Security is one of six national priorities for national security. President Xi Jinping has just issued a call to citizens not to waste food or face penalties, a sign that the depth of the food security threat is far worse than thought .
        While any of the several problems would be manageable in normal times, the combination of agriculture disasters combined with the economic consequences of the China outbreaks of coronavirus are presenting challenges that could well impact global food security in coming months.
        Fall Armyworm
        At the end of 2018 the presence of a large infestation of dreaded fall armyworm was noted in southern China. In 2019 the devastation by the resilient fall armyworm (FAW) invasion caused destruction of more than 1 million hectares of farmland in China last year, damaging mainly corn and sugarcane crops. According to government news wires, so far in 2020 the fall armyworm infestation has already destroyed 1.07 million hectares in 24 provinces as of early August. Notably, the FAW infestation worked its way across Africa where it was first detected in 2016 to India and in 2018 to China.
        Now as the plague moves north inside China, it threatens the heart of China's northeastern region, including Heilongjiang, Jilin, Liaoning provinces and the Inner Mongolia region, known as the grain basket of China, producing about half of the country's corn on some 13 million hectares. On August 21, Chinese state media reported presence of the dreaded FAW in in Liaoning province in its northeastern cornbelt for the first time. The government has made fighting the pest a priority, however the insect is resistant to many pesticides and produces up to 3,000 eggs a season. The adults can travel up to 60 miles in a night. A major problem is that the FAW in China has already developed a resistance to many commonly used insecticides. As of February 20 this year, despite vigorous attempts at eradication with various chemicals including sophisticated spraying with drones, the FAW infestation range in China was 90 times larger than during the same period the previous year. That was just at the peak of the China coronavirus lockdowns which severely hampered timely pest control measures.
        African Swine Fever
        The FAW is not the only major threat to China food security. In 2019 the African Swine Fever resulted in the death of more than 40% of China's pig population, the largest in the world according to official Agriculture Ministry statistics, though industry estimates put the loss as high as 60% or more than 215 million pigs. African swine fever (ASF) is an animal disease affecting pigs and wild boars with up to 100% fatality rate. There is no known cure meaning infected herds must be slaughtered to contain spread. The crisis in 2019 was the worst ever for ASF pig losses in China.
        While incidences of ASF in China are dramatically down this year, the rebuilding of pig herds will take a minimum of three years according to the UN's FAO. And the new cases of ASF are still being detected. The US Department of Agriculture reports that China's overall swine production and slaughter will hit record lows in 2020 as African Swine Fever continues to impact China's hog industry. If all goes well, far from sure at this point, pig herds are expected to be only at 80% of pre-fever levels by 2022. With pig being the largest source of animal protein in the Chinese diet, the result has been doubling of consumer prices for pork products at a time the economy is in serious stress from COVID-19 and other factors.
        Now, since June central China from Sichuan Province to Wuhan region along China's largest river, Yangtze and its tributaries, severe flooding is causing new outbreaks of African Swine Fever. As of early July, as record rains continued, a Shandong Yongyi survey of small pig farmers, corporate farmers, traders and slaughterhouses in 20 provinces revealed dozens of African swine fever cases had occurred since the heavy rains in Guangdong province, the Guangxi region and other areas.
        Then the Great Floods and Droughts
        Every summer usually beginning May or June, there is Monsoon rainfall in central China in the region from Sichuan to Wuhan along the longest river in Asia, the Yangtze River. The Yangtze originates in the Tibetan Plateau. This year the rains have been recorded as the heaviest in some 60 years, since records began in 1961, and as of late August heavy rains have not stopped. The result has been severe flooding especially along the path of the Yangtze River basin.
        By late July the intensive rains had raised the water levels along the Yangtze River to such a level level that the huge Three Gorges Dam, world's largest hydroelectric dam, situated between Chongqing in the West and Wuhan and finally, Shanghai, was deemed by some hydrologist experts to be in danger of collapse. To control flooding damage to Chongqing, officials were forced to open the Three Gorges Dam to release huge volumes of water. That water began causing severe flooding downriver in Wuhan, the site of the first declared outbreak of the coronavirus at the end of 2019.
        Quite literally, a dammed if you do and dammed (sic) if you don't dilemma'--flood Chongqing to save Wuhan and risk rupture of the huge dam or release water and flood Wuhan and major downriver regions. So far both have taken place. And the record rains are in the fifth declared flood as of late August.
        Chongqing is a megacity with more than 33 million people in the metropolitan area, including some 23 million farmers. The entire Yangtze Basin contains considerable agriculture including rice crops that have been washed away from the flooding. In the southwest, the Province of Sichuan with a major upstream section of the Yangtze, raised its flood emergency response to its highest level for the first time as its rivers overflowed and villages and farmland were inundated.
        The 13 provinces in China that plant rice by July were all impacted by the record flooding. Farmers plant rice three times a year and the extended flooding from June into late August has impacted all three plantings. At this point there are no precise estimates of the total agriculture crop damage due to the flooding in the Yangtze region other than that it is immense.
        While central China is afflicted with record flooding, other parts of China have seen severe drought, especially in the wheat regions of northern and central China.
        Wheat is mainly planted in central and northern China. Farmers only harvest once a year in late May to early June. This year droughts killed the crops in Henan, Inner Mongolia, Gansu, Xinjiang, Jilin, and other northern provinces. Henan Province alone produces some 25% of China's total agriculture production. According to independent assessments wheat production areas of Henan, Anhui, and Jiangsu provinces this year is lower in quality than 2019 and up to 30% lower in produced volumes. Inner Mongolia, Gansu, and Xinjiang is worse. State-run media Xinhua reported on June 16 that 50.7 percent of Inner Mongolia's land suffered heavy droughts this year. The region mainly grows wheat, as well as soybeans and corn. Crops and wild grass were unable to grow, impacting local animal husbandry.
        While details of the extent of agriculture devastation are limited, as it is considered a matter of national security, the situation is clearly far graver that so far admitted. One indication is official remarks. Vice Premier Hu Chunhua recently asked the governors of each province in China to make sure sown areas of agricultural crops would not shrink and crop yield not be reduced this year. Given the extent of flooding damage, drought and insect damage to crops, that could be near to impossible. On July 27 at a Beijing food security meeting the Vice Premier warned that governors would be punished if they failed to uphold the promise, including with dismissals.
        Fortunately for China, its close economic ties with Russia and the fact the Russian grain harvest looks set to again be the world's largest mean that China will be able to import much of the deficit, albeit at a high price. However, with much of the world still imposing one or another degree of COVID-19 quarantine, global food availability is likely to become an increasing problem.

      Rare spat between Serbia and Russia after US-brokered deal

        BELGRADE, Serbia (AP) '-- A social media post by Russia's Foreign Ministry spokeswoman apparently ridiculing Serbia's president after he signed a U.S.-sponsored agreement between Serbia and Kosovo has triggered a rare spat between traditional allies Moscow and Belgrade.
        Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova posted a photo showing Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic sitting across from U.S. President Donald Trump at his Oval Office in Washington. She posted that along with another photo, the iconic scene from thriller ''Basic Instinct'' showing Sharon Stone being questioned by police as she sits cross-legged in a chair.
        Zakkharova mocked Vucic in a comment on the Facebook post, saying he was invited to the White House to be interrogated.
        Vucic and other Serbian officials reacted furiously.
        ''The primitivism and vulgarity she showed speaks about herself, but also about those who have given her the job,'' Vucic told the pro-government Pink TV.
        Later Sunday, Zakharova apologized on Twitter, saying her post had been misinterpreted. Her boss, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, spoke Sunday with Vucic, stressing the ''sincerely close ties'' between the two states, the Serbian president's office said.
        Vucic said while he was in Washington he defended Serbia's close ties with Russia, including an arms purchase, and his refusal to impose Western sanctions against Moscow over its policies in Ukraine.
        Marko Djuric, an official with Vucic's ruling party, defended him on Twitter.
        ''This president did not say a single bad word against Russia, not even in that place (the White House.) ... I will not allow you to attack proud Serbia. Shame on you!'' Djuric wrote.
        Although formally seeking membership in the European Union, Serbia under Vucic has been forging close political, economic and military ties with Russia and China.
        Trump announced Friday that former wartime foes Serbia and Kosovo have agreed to normalize economic ties as part of U.S.-brokered talks that include Belgrade moving its Israeli embassy to Jerusalem, and mutual recognition between Israel and Kosovo.
        The announcement provided Trump with a diplomatic win ahead of the November presidential election and furthers his administration's push to improve Israel's international standing.
        The agreement also calls on Serbia to diversify its energy supplies, which are now fully in Russia's hands '-- something unlikely to be approved by Moscow.

        "Damaging," "reckless" and "disastrous" are some of the words Joe Biden has used to describe tariffs imposed by Donald Trump on allies and rivals alike. He may keep some in place anyway if he is elected president of the United States in November.
        Republicans largely abandoned traditional party goals such as unfettered trade and balanced budgets to embrace Trump's "America First" agenda. For Democratic-party challenger Biden, with a history of supporting free trade but also attuned to voices calling out for a different approach, the task is not so simple.
        Biden is backed by labor unions who want job protections and infrastructure spending, and progressives who want action on climate change, lower drug prices and human rights, while facing demands from farmers and U.S. corporations eager for tariff cuts and a less disruptive China trade relationship.
        The mix of conflicting interests adds up to a wait-and-see approach that could keep many of the tariffs Biden would inherit from Trump in place for years, say former and current advisers, lobbyists and trade analysts.
        "It's unclear how he will balance these different competing forces," said Mary Lovely, a Syracuse University economics professor and senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics.
        The series of staggered tariffs the Trump administration imposed on $370 billion worth of Chinese goods in 2018 and 2019 have cost U.S. importers some $61.6 billion to date, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection data and have been blamed for eroding U.S. manufacturing competitiveness.
        Duties on steel, aluminum, washing machines, solar panels and European Union goods added another $12.2 billion in punitive collections through Sept. 2.
        The U.S. trade deficit with China narrowed in 2019, but Census Bureau data on Thursday showed the nation's trade gap in July jumped to $63.6 billion, its widest in 12 years, with China accounting for nearly half of it.
        Trade experts say Biden's hands may be tied.
        "I don't see any scenario in which he can go in, in the first 6-12 months, and lift those tariffs," said Nathan Sheets, a former Obama administration Treasury undersecretary who negotiated with China on economic issues.
        "The current political environment - left, right and center - is going to require Biden to be tough on China," said Sheets, now chief economist with PGIM Fixed Income.
        From free trade to fair tradeBiden has backed free trade over his three decades in Congress, during a period when increasing globalization was viewed as a path to prosperity. He supported the 1994 North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and China's entry into the World Trade Organization in 2001.
        As vice president, he was a vocal proponent of the Trans-Pacific Partnership, the Obama administration's attempt to counter China's growing influence in Asia.
        That support for free trade has given ammunition for Trump to attack Biden as being ''soft on China'' and allowing U.S. jobs to migrate to low-wage countries.
        Biden has struck back, saying he is not afraid to use trade barriers - but only when they make sense.
        ''I will use tariffs when they are needed, but the difference between me and Trump is that I will have a strategy - a plan - to use those tariffs to win, not just to fake toughness,'' Biden wrote in a statement to the United Steelworkers union in May. Steel and aluminum tariffs would stay until a global solution to limit excess production - largely centered in China - can be negotiated, it said.
        Biden's "Made in All of America" economic plan suggests the use of carbon-based tariffs to punish countries failing to meet climate goals, a move that could please progressives eager for the United States to take a stand on global warming.
        The plan also vows reform of the World Trade Organization, and ''aggressive trade enforcement actions'' against unfair practices by China and other countries, including currency manipulation, dumping of below-cost exports, and ''state-owned company abuses, or unfair subsidies.''
        The Trump administration aimed to address Chinese dumping and state subsidies, but the Phase 1 trade deal does not.
        Making peace with allies on tradeOne way Biden would depart from Trump is by consulting with allies about the best way to deal with China, said Jeff Prescott, a Biden campaign policy adviser.
        Working with Europe, Japan and other allies ''can bring a significant percentage of the global economy to bear'' on China to curb non-market practices and to reform WTO rules, he said.
        Trump still has support from many blue-collar workers in the swing states of Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, but Biden is backed by the country's biggest union group.
        AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka said on Thursday he believes Biden would impose rules to ''keep workers safe'' in the pandemic, use tax incentives to encourage the reshoring of critical supply chains and deliver a major infrastructure spending drive, with strong ''Buy American'' requirements.
        Trump, he said, ''hasn't lived up to his hype.''
        Jon Lieber, U.S. managing director for the Eurasia Group political risk consultancy, said that while what Biden is proposing is a different brand of economic nationalism than Trump, ''lower barriers for China would be totally inconsistent with that goal.''
        Whatever the decisions on trade, Biden advisers say there is no going back to the pre-Trump trade consensus, where businesses successfully pushed U.S. governments to continually shrink trade barriers, while touting globalization.
        ''There's a kind of recognition that ultimately the goal of international economic policy is not to make the world safe for multinational corporations to do business,'' said Prescott. ''It's fundamentally about jobs in the United States, about the middle class at home and building our economy here.''
      GE, CTCI Score 6.5-GW Gas Power Contract Win in Taiwan

        General Electric International Inc. (GE) and consortium partner Taiwanese engineering services firm CTCI have bagged a multi-billion-dollar engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contract for five combined cycle gas-fired power units in Taiwan.
        The consortium will build three new units at the 3.9-GW Hsinta Power Plant and two new units at the 2.6-GW Taichung Power Plant. The two plants owned by state-owned utility Taiwan Power Co. (Taipower) are slated to come online in phases, starting in 2024.
        Power Plants Based on HA TechnologyAs part of the project scope, GE Gas Power will deploy 10 7HA.03 gas turbines'--the newest model in its 2014-launched high-efficiency air-cooled (HA) gas turbine line'--as well as five steam turbine, 15 generators, and 10 heat recovery steam generators. CTCI will provide engineering and construction of civil work and erection for the generating units, as well as the balance of plant.
        GE said the award will become an order ''following contract closure and payment, which is expected within six months.'' The win is a big one for the U.S.-based conglomerate, which has seen demand for large gas turbines decline as competition in the gas turbine sector grows more intense. In the first half of 2020, the company recorded only eight orders for heavy-duty gas turbines, compared to 27 for the same period in 2019. Its HA-turbine orders also fell to just two turbines in the first half, compared to 10 for the same period in 2019.
        GE told POWER when it unveiled the 7HA.03 last year that the new model has a single-cycle net output of 430 MW'--a sizable boost compared to its forerunner, the 7HA.02, which is rated at 384 MW, and the first-generation gas turbine in the HA class, the 7HA.01, which is rated at 290 MW. In combined cycle, a 1—1 7HA.03 plant can offer 640 MW, and in a 2—1 configuration, rated output reaches 1,282 MW. Like previous HA models, the 7HA.03 features a 10-minute start-up, but it remarkably intensifies the ramp rate to 75 MW per minute.
        The first plant likely to showcase the new model is Florida Power and Light's (FPL's) Dania Beach Clean Energy Center, which is slated to come online in 2022. GE Gas Power also already has several contracts for HA machines in Taiwan, including for 7HA.03's at Datan 7, 8, and 9.
        The newest 6.5-GW contract is also a big win for Taipei-headquartered CTCI. The firm'--founded in 1979'--has 7,000 employees in 40 affiliates spanning 15 countries. The company said it has built several plants as an EPC contractor in Taiwan and Southeast Asia, including nuclear, thermal, cogeneration, and combined cycle power plants. CTCI said in a statement that its parent company CTCI Group ''continues to be a strong supporter of the government's energy diversification policies by tapping into renewable energy sectors such as offshore wind, solar power, and biomass.''
        Taiwan's Power TransitionWhen the new generating units at Hsinta and Taichung plants begin to come online in 2024, they are expected to replace coal-fired power generating units and bolster Taiwan's energy transition, GE and CTCI said.
        Taiwan is an island that imports about 98.5% of its energy. It embarked on power sector reforms in 2017, and the administration of 2016-elected President Tsai Ing-wen has since moved to phase out nuclear power, boost renewable energy, and tamp down coal's share of the nation's power mix (Figure 1).
        1. Taiwan's power generating mix since 2004. Source: Taiwan Bureau of Energy Under Taiwan's Renewable Energy Development Act (REDA) energy policy, the Tsai administration is targeting a 2025 power generation fuel mix that will rely on liquefied natural gas (LNG) for 50% of its power, 30% on coal, and 20% on renewables. The Tsai administration also plans to increase installed solar photovoltaic capacity in the country to 20 GW and offshore wind capacity to 5.5 GW by 2025.
        Gas's share stood at 33.3% at the end of 2019, according to the Taiwan Bureau of Energy, though it has increased substantially over the past decade. Taiwan, notably, also ranks high among countries worldwide that import LNG. According to government data, the country imported 17.02 million metric tons of LNG in 2019, and 78% of its imports were consumed by power generation. Taipower was the single biggest consumer of the fuel last year. Increasing gas generation to 50% will require Taipower to increase its LNG intake significantly.

      Prominent Disney Stakeholder Calls Company's Embrace Of China 'Wildly Offensive,' Demands Answers | The Daily Caller

        Disney's decision to thank Chinese officials is tantamount to ''normalizing genocide,'' stockholder Justin Danhof told the Daily Caller News Foundation. Disney's executives ''will be hearing from us in a formal way'' on the company's embrace of China despite its alleged imprisonment of minority Muslims, Danhof said about the company's other stakeholders. Disney opened a $5.5 billion entertainment resort in Shanghai, China, in 2016, with former CEO Bob Iger calling the resort the ''greatest opportunity since buying land in Florida.'' Disney's embrace of China despite its reported oppression of the Uighur Muslims is akin to ''normalizing genocide,'' according to one company stockholder who claims investors are preparing to formally demand answers from the company.
        It's inconceivable that Disney was unaware that Xinjiang, China, is the location where China is imprisoning the country's Uighur population, stockholder Justin Danhof told the Daily Caller News Foundation. Disney is facing intense criticism for filming in 2019 the live-action version of ''Mulan'' in Xinjiang, where the minority group is allegedly being interned.
        ''Disney will be hearing from us in a formal way on this issue. We will be engaging with Disney in that way,'' Danhof said, referring to his fellow stockholders. ''Other investors who are not aware of what Disney is doing will be made aware.'' (RELATED: Disney Threatens To Boycott Georgia But Partners With China, Which Puts Muslims In Internment Camps)
        Danhof did not elaborate on what he and the other stockholders supposedly have planned, noting that he does not like to discuss such internal matters.
        In the credits for ''Mulan,'' Disney thanked a Chinese agency called Turpan Municipal Bureau of Public Safety, which is allegedly responsible for running internment camps housing China's Muslim minority groups, the BBC reported Monday. Numerous reports show Uighurs held in concentration camps and subjected to forced sterilization.

        ''It's wildly offensive,'' said Danhof, general counsel and director of the Free Enterprise Project, which is a product of conservative think tank National Center for Public Policy Research. ''There can be no doubt that Disney has to be aware of this. Some executives probably even saw some of the centers housing the Uighurs.''
        Danhof has a history of grilling executives on conservative matters. He presented CEO Bob Chapek with research at an annual meeting of Disney shareholders in March supposedly showing bias in Disney's ABC News division. The Media Research Center study Danhof prepared at the meeting suggested ABC News's coverage of President Donald Trump is overwhelmingly negative.
        Danhof asked Disney Executive Chairman Bob Iger during a stakeholder meeting in 2018 about ABC host Joy Behar's past criticisms of Vice President Mike Pence's Christian faith. Iger, who stepped down as the company's CEO in 2020, said he took exception to Behar's remarks. That meeting ultimately resulted in Behar apologizing for mocking Christians, Danhof told the DCNF.
        Disney won't be able to hide from its ties to China, according to Peter Flaherty, chairman and CEO of the National Legal and Policy Center (NLPC), a 501(c)3 nonprofit that promotes ethics in public life. Flaherty is an ''anti-corruption activist who has successfully pursued some of the most powerful members of Congress,'' according to NLPC's website.
        ''Disney cannot stonewall this,'' Flaherty told the DCNF. ''Unlike other issues, human rights in China is something that does concern both conservatives and liberals, so they could have a pretty broad coalition allied against them even though we live in polarized times. Disney ignores the protests at their own risk. ''
        The Chinese government is working to lower the birthrates of Uighurs while encouraging other native populations to have more children, an Associated Press investigation published in June found. The study was based on interviews with former detainees, family members and a former detention camp instructor, as well as government statistics and documents, AP said.
        Meanwhile, Disney opened a $5.5 billion entertainment resort in Shanghai, China, in 2016, Variety reported. Iger called Shanghai Disney the company's ''greatest opportunity since buying land in Florida.'' Disney partnered with a state-owned company, Shanghai Shendi Group, for the resort.
        ''Certain anti-Chinese forces abroad are smearing and attacking China in Xinjiang,'' Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said about Disney's work in Xinjiang at a briefing Tuesday. Disney has not responded to the Daily Caller News Foundation's request for comment.

      'Mulan':' Disney Thanks Communist China for Permitting Filming in Uyghur Homeland | National Review

        Yifei Liu in Mulan(IMDB) In the credits of Disney's new Mulan movie, the company offers a special thanks to four Chinese Communist Party propaganda departments and a public security bureau in the region of Xinjiang where more than a million Muslims, mostly of the Uyghur minority, have been imprisoned in concentration camps.
        Disney recently revealed that some scenes in the live action remake of its 1998 animated film, which was released on its Disney+ streaming platform over the weekend, were filmed in the region.
        The company thanks the entities, which were directly involved in the operation or promotion of mass internment camps, including the CCP's propaganda commission in Xinjiang and a local branch of the regional Xinjiang public security bureau. The former has peddled disinformation to justify the detention camps while the latter is subject to U.S. government sanctions for its role in operating the camps.
        While the Party has barred foreign journalists, human rights organizations, and foreign government officials from entering the region, Disney employees were granted special access. Aside from filming in the region, the production team spent months in the area ''to do legwork research before the cameras rolled,'' according to an interview with Architectural Digest.
        The film refers to Xinjiang in subtitles as ''northwest China,'' in a reflection of Chinese government propaganda that Xinjiang has ''belonged to China since ancient times.'' The region's inhabitants have cultural ties to the steppe peoples of Mongolia and have long claimed independence from China. The movie has no Uyghur characters.
        Countless Uyghurs have died in the concentration camps while forced sterilization campaigns caused the birth rate in the region to drop roughly 24 percent last year, which fits within the legally recognized definition of genocide
        Disney has long sought to appease the Chinese Communist Party to gain access to the market there, as evidenced by the successful opening of Shanghai Disneyland in June 2016, which Disney's Executive Chairman Bob Iger said , is the ''greatest opportunity the company has had since Walt Disney himself bought land in Central Florida.''
        On Twitter, users have used the hashtag #boycottMulan to urge viewers to avoid the film, both for its involvement in the region and for star Liu Yifei's support of police in Hong Kong last year at a time when people in Hong Kong were protesting newly suggested policies that would allow citizens to be extradited to mainland China.
        Disney has leveraged its economic might to protest against laws that its executives view as unjust as recently as last year, when Iger threatened to discontinue all production in the state of Georgia if a restrictive abortion law that had recently been signed by governor Brian Kemp took effect.
        ''I rather doubt we will,'' Iger said when asked if Disney would continue to film in Georgia if the law, which banned abortion after a fetal heartbeat could be detected, took effect. ''I think many people who work for us will not want to work there, and we will have to heed their wishes in that regard. Right now we are watching it very carefully.''
        The fetal heartbeat law was struck down by a federal court judge in July.

      Immigrants from Greece -> Germany - We have space
        Hi Adam!
        The green party & NGOs put out thousands of chairs in Berlin on Monday, calling the event "We have space" ... aka for "refugees".
        A day later, a big "refugee" camp in Moria burns down and a Green party operative posts a photo of the chair event and that Germany has space for these 13,000 "refugees" from Moria ... who set fire to THEIR OWN CAMP.
        Can't make this up.
        I am giddy about Trump being nominated for the peace nobel prize though. Obama got it for way less and killed more people by drones and wars after getting it.

      Amazon's Vector power smart meter deal puts 'how you live your life' on web giant's servers - ABC News

        Intimate data about the private lives of millions of Australians will be analysed and monetised by a partnership between a New Zealand company and a subsidiary of the world's biggest retailer, Amazon.
        Key points: NZ company Vector and Amazon Web Services have a deal to collect, analyse and sell electricity meter data from 1.6 million households in Australia and New Zealand The smart meters collect information about your energy use, and can provide insights into when you are at home and what appliances you use Privacy campaigners are concerned the data can be combined with other information to provide an intimate picture of your lifeSmart meters deliver information about household power use and are being installed at a rate of 12,000 a month as the electricity grid juggles a boom in household solar with a nationally linked network of generators and users.
        The data goes far beyond how much power you use in a certain time of day '-- revealing things like the number of televisions you have, the age of your fridge and other appliances, and the number of people in your home.
        The information will be shared in a partnership between New Zealand utility company Vector and Amazon Web Services (AWS), the cloud computing subsidiary of internet behemoth Amazon.
        "Smart meters, and the way you consume energy is very private," said Kaspar Kaarlep, co-founder of power technology company WePower.
        "I would compare it to, let's say, the City of Melbourne selling access to all of its CCTV cameras to Amazon '... to develop new products and services.
        "This is our private lives. When do I come home? When do I leave? What do I have at my home? Who do I live with? This is all visible in that data."
        Consumer benefits offeredAlmost every home in Victoria is connected to smart meters, part of a program that cost consumers $2 billion and, when reviewed by the Auditor-General, was found to provide almost "no benefit".
        Vector was not involved in this program.
        A long boom in the installation of rooftop solar systems is seeing more Australian homes hooked up each week.
        The key difference for consumers is more accurate billing, and the sacking of meter readers who used to physically visit residences to check how much power had been consumed.
        Old electricity meters (left) are rapidly being replaced by a new smart meters (right), which transmit usage data constantly.(ABC News)The deal aims to create products and services for power retailers and consumers '-- and could lead to the first tangible benefits of the costly scheme.
        "It's a really exciting opportunity to really unleash the power of data to make customers products and services and costs much more efficient," said Vector Group chief executive Simon Mackenzie.
        "No-one wants to sit and analyse every five minutes of their energy supply.
        "This will ultimately evolve into solutions that '-- through machine learning or other types of technologies '-- enables customers to opt-in to products or services and have it managed in a smart way, privately behind the scenes, to have a better experience and (lower) cost."
        1.6 million homes includedThe alliance will use data from 1.6 million internet-connected smart meters in Australia and New Zealand to gather information on consumers' consumption and network performance.
        That data, analysed, will allow power companies to "develop tailored product and pricing solutions for their customers based on their energy consumption habits", according to a release revealing the deal.
        "The energy industry is really going through this digital transformation," said Nick Walton, Amazon Web Service's managing director for commercial sector in New Zealand.
        When power companies pay you Power companies are already trialling demand management, where the customer gets paid for switching off unnecessary appliances at peak use times.

        What he calls "legacy" meters have been a challenge to altering the electricity grid, but smart meters provide an opportunity to transform how people consume '-- and create '-- power.
        "We think that can really unlock a lot of the value from this data and start to provide solutions back to customers: with more choice and more visibility into their power consumption patterns," Mr Walton argued.
        "Then (consumers) can take action on choosing to, say, charge things off-peak, or just get greater visibility to make smarter decisions that suit themselves and their lifestyle."
        Privacy concernsBut concerns remain about how the information will be used.
        Kaspar Kaarlep of WePower worked in Estonia '-- the only other market in the world completely covered by smart meters. He said greater consumer protections in Europe mean this deal would not be legal there.
        WePower co-founder Kaspar Kaarlep says smart meter data can reveal what times you are home, what appliances you own and even who you live with.(ABC News: Scott Jewell)"There was a time where we didn't recognise that what posts you 'like' on Facebook is very private and identifiable '-- smart meters are the same way," he said.
        "When do you work? When do your individual appliances come online and when do they (stop)? How many people do you have there?
        "This is all identifiable in the smart meter data '-- it has literally your entire the pattern of life and behaviour through just monitoring where you live and what you do in your home."
        Vector and AWS say the data is anonymised and cannot be linked back to customers.
        Privacy advocates dispute that, because the way some customers use power in certain locations will easily identify them. For the companies, it's a tightrope: the more anonymous the data is made, the less value it has overall.
        "We've been storing information on the AWS platform for a number of years now and we see that they have extensive and really, really sophisticated data management," said Vector Group's Simon Mackenzie, describing data privacy as the "most critical element" of the deal.
        Start 2020 with an online privacy check-up 2020 is off to a chaotic start, but locking down your online privacy is still vital.
        Read more
        Mr Mackenzie sees the privacy challenge looming when the data is made available to other companies and aggregators, something slowly happening in banking.
        "Looking into the future where we have third-party operators that potentially might want to enter the market and say, 'We'd like to be able to analyse the data and give you a new retail offer, or maybe offer you some solution like an electric vehicle with a home charging device'," he said.
        Both companies insist it is impossible for the data, hosted by AWS, to be linked to the accounts of customers of other arms of Amazon, such as its Prime home delivery service.
        "No, that's not the business model. AWS and Amazon.com are separate businesses inside of Amazon," said Mr Walton.
        "The data is our customer's data '-- in this case it's Vector '-- and so that's not how it would work."
        Vector also emphasised that there are strict rules about how it can use energy customers' data and who it can be shared with.
        "Customer data is tightly regulated and can only be provided to the customer's retailer, the network, AEMO and parties that have specifically been authorised by the customer to receive it," the company said in a statement.
        "As an accredited data provider, Vector is regularly audited by AEMO in this area."
        'Data deals opaque'The promised protections don't satisfy consumer advocates.
        "We actually can't really tell what data's being collected, who it's being shared with and what it's being used for," said Lauren Solomon, chief executive of the Consumer Policy Research Centre.
        "All of these data deals tend to have a high degree of opacity."
        Ms Solomon said the analysis could bring "big benefits" to consumers if they are empowered by it '-- but not if the data is used against their interests.
        "What we tend to see within the digital economy is concentrations of data and concentrations of market power in their hands of a few," she said.
        "And that's where you really need to be starting to think about: Where is value being extracted from this data? And, is the value flowing back to consumers and back to the Australian community or is it flowing into the hands of very large companies with very large market power already to begin with?"
        A broader issue is that we think of data in distinct silos: our phone bills, our power use, our social media history. But in many cases it is being combined.
        "We need to stop thinking about the fact that data sits within one sector," Ms Solomon warned.
        "Data is combined across multiple sectors now, which gives companies a capacity to develop very detailed profiles about households and businesses and what's actually going on.
        "That's not a feature in energy, that's a feature in every market we operate within."
      Phones for low-income users hacked before they're turned on, research finds - CNET

        Researchers found phones in the Lifeline program came with malware installed, causing the phones to be loaded up with adware.
        Getty images Rameez Anwar's phone had serious problems. The device, paid for by the federally funded Lifeline program for low-income people, was overrun with pop-up ads that made it unusable. Despite multiple factory resets, the problem wouldn't go away.
        "As soon as it detected internet," Anwar said, "it started doing the pop-ups."
        For more like thisSubscribe to the Mobile newsletter, receive notifications and see related stories on CNET.
        Anwar, who says he's tinkered with computers since childhood, suspected the phone had come with malware installed. So he sent it to Nathan Collier, a researcher at Malwarebytes.
        Collier confirmed Anwar's hunch: The phone's settings and update apps contained code that allowed them to load malicious apps known as adware. The adware displayed ads that covered users' screens, no matter what they were doing on their phones.
        Adware isn't a problem just for Anwar and other users who have the same phone model, made by American Network Solutions. Because the phones and their service plans were subsidized by a US program, taxpayers were funding the data that was used to display the promotional campaigns. On top of that, the adware prevented the phones doing their intended job: keeping low-income people connected to vital services via phone and internet.
        Evidence suggests pre-installed malware plagues inexpensive phones around the world. Earlier this year, Collier found pre-installed malware, a broad range of disruptive or dangerous apps, on a phone made by Unimax and distributed by the Lifeline program. Collier says he frequently sees similar malware on cheap phones outside the Lifeline program. A BuzzFeed investigation found inexpensive phones popular in African countries had similar problems.
        Unimax said in a statement in January that it had created a security patch to fix a vulnerability in its settings app. However, it disagreed with Malwarebytes that the vulnerability in the app qualified as "malware." American Network Solutions couldn't be reached for comment.
        By making phones essentially unusable, adware puts low-income people at risk of being cut off from the world, which is especially troubling during the coronavirus pandemic. Families are struggling to connect to the internet for their children's schooling. Low-income people, some facing homelessness, rely on their devices to stay connected to doctors who can't see them in person and apply for benefits. In California, about 14,000 people living alone in hotel rooms depend on phones to stave off loneliness after being evacuated from homeless shelters.
        "Their way to connect to the world and the internet is through phones," Collier said.
        How the adware gets on phonesWhen looking at Anwar's phone, Collier found the settings app and the update app could covertly install third-party software on the user's phone. Users can't uninstall either app without making the devices unusable.
        Collier found a way to turn off the malcious code without completely uninstalling the apps, but it requires users to connect their phones to a laptop and run specialty software. For people in the Lifeline program, a laptop might not be available, and the instructions might be challenging for people without training.
        Collier found the update app was installing four different versions of adware, which may be why Anwar found the ads overwhelmed his device completely.
        In response to a request for comment, Anwar's carrier, Assurance Wireless, referred CNET to phone maker Unimax's statement in January. It also supplied a letter it sent to US Sens. Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut and Ron Wyden in response to questions the senators asked them about the Malwarebytes findings. In the letter, the company repeated Unimax's assertion that code in the apps amounted to a "security vulnerability" and was not malware.
        "It appears that Malwarebytes was incorrectly identifying legitimate functions as malware," the company said in its letter.
        Assurance Wireless didn't supply a specific response to the more recent findings about the phone made by American Network Solutions. Because the code Malwarebytes identified can let the settings and update apps surreptitiously load unwanted adware, the researchers have stood by their finding that the apps contain malware.
        Government-funded phonesThe Lifeline program is overseen by the FCC. The phone service providers typically either function as subsidiaries of big names phone carriers or run their service through the big carriers' networks. Assurance Wireless is a division of T-Mobile.
        Collier said he doesn't know how the malicious code gets onto the phone because third parties could have access to the phone's software at various points in the manufacturing process. He added he has no way of knowing whether either phone maker or the carriers had any knowledge of the problems before Malwarebytes made its findings public.
        Budget phone makers typically use premade software from Android for apps that control settings and updates. It would be illegal for the phone manufacturer to tweak those apps to allow for the secret installation of adware because they would be making money from ad impressions and clicks made possible by Lifeline funds.
        "It is federal law that Lifeline funds are prohibited from supporting the cost of the handset or any other end-user device or software," an FCC spokesperson said in a statement. "The security of Americans' cell phones is critical, and the FCC urges Lifeline providers to protect consumers from adware and malware."
        The agency declined to answer a question about whether it's investigating the Malwarebytes findings on either phone model.
        Other ways for malware to slip inIt's entirely possible phone manufacturers aren't aware of the malicious capabilities of the phones before they go out to users. Instead, thin margins on the devices could lead phone makers to review the software on their phones less thoroughly than a name brand would, said Ken Hyers, a mobile analyst at Strategic Analytics.
        Hyers, who wasn't involved in the Malwarebytes research, said he could only speculate about how malicious code got onto the apps. A plausible place for it to happen, he said, would be what's called a software review house -- a third-party service that reviews code for phone makers before it gets installed onto devices.
        Someone working in the review house could slip the malicious code into the apps, Hyers said.
        "Unless they were compared line by line with the code sent out to the testing house," he said. "you wouldn't find it."
        Unusable Lifeline phonesAnwar, 37, said he works a low-wage job and lives with roommates in Virginia. He hasn't ordered a new device through the Lifeline program. Instead, he's using a phone he received as a gift, and a friend is paying the monthly fees.
        He hopes that donating his Lifeline phone to Malwarebytes will help bring attention to the problem for other Lifeline users. Phones aren't a luxury, he said. Everyone needs a phone to apply for jobs, call 911, contact doctors and stay in touch with loved ones.
        "Every single user of cell phones deserves the right to have unobstructed phone call and text message access," he said.

        German Chancellor Angela Merkel has all but accused the Russian government of attempted murder in the strange case of Alexei Navalny, the dissident figure who reportedly remains comatose in a Berlin hospital.
        Merkel spoke after a German military laboratory announced earlier this week it had ''unequivocal proof'' that Navalny had been poisoned with ''Novichok'', a Soviet-era military-grade nerve agent.
        ''It raises serious questions that only the Russian government can and must answer,'' Merkel told media reporters. The chancellor's assertions were immediately reinforced by the United States, Britain and the head of NATO, each demanding Moscow to be held to account.
        The Russian government rejected the accusations, saying they were being made improperly. It noted that the German authorities did not inform Moscow of its claims directly, but rather communicated first with its Western allies. There is more than a suggestion that the Western response is being coordinated to railroad accusations against Russia without Moscow being afforded due process. There is a presumption of guilt which violates due process and diplomatic protocol. And, of course, this is not for the first time when it comes to Western contemptuous relations with Russia.
        Contrary to Western assertions about Russia having to answer questions about the Navalny case, the onus is very much on the German authorities to explain their ''findings'' and to back them up with verifiable evidence. Otherwise it amounts to hearsay and innuendo.
        First of all, the Germans say they have ''unequivocal proof'' that Navalny was poisoned with Novichok, reportedly from tests carried out on his blood samples. But the German military laboratory and doctors in Berlin have not provided any biomaterials to Russia for the latter to independently verify the alleged detection of Novichok.
        Secondly, the Russian doctors who first treated Navalny after he suddenly fell ill on a flight from the Siberian city of Tomsk to Moscow on August 20 have affirmed that they carried out comprehensive toxicology tests on his biological fluids and organs, and they detected no traces of toxins. Specifically no traces of organophosphate nerve agents. The Russian medics concluded that Navalny may have become ill from a metabolic disorder, such as extremely low blood sugar.
        The Russian doctors who treated Navalny, and possibly saved his life by their quick intervention, said they detected the presence of cholinesterase inhibitors which affect the nervous system, but such substances can be caused by a wide range of clinical pharmaceuticals, including those used for the treatment of diabetes which Navalny reportedly suffers from.
        However, the crucial point is this: the Russian toxicology tests found no presence of Novichok or any other such nerve poison in Navalny's body. The Russian medics reportedly still possess the original body samples taken when Navalny was being treated in Russia. It is the Germans who are claiming they have detected Novichok, but so far they have not provided verifiable proof. It is their word for it, that's all.
        There are more questions needing answers. Navalny was airlifted from Russia to Berlin on August 22 under heavy pressure from Germany and other Western states for Moscow to permit his relocation. Why the urgency to do so? Why did Moscow relent in allowing this strange foreign intervention in its internal affairs?
        If, for argument sake, the Kremlin had in some way plotted to cause Navalny harm with Novichok or some other poison, why would Moscow permit his relocation to Berlin where toxicology tests would uncover the purported plot? That scenario is illogical.
        Navalny's aides immediately claimed he was poisoned when he fell ill. They said he may have been poisoned from drinking tea at Tomsk airport before his flight. But CCTV footage shows Navalny being handed the drink by an aide. So, if anyone intended Navalny's intoxication from the beverage, they wouldn't have known he was to be the person who received the drink.
        Furthermore, the Russian scientists who invented Novichok have stated categorically that if the nerve agent was somehow involved in the Navalny case, then he would most likely be dead by now and not in a coma. Also, they say, his aides and those who treated Navalny onboard the flight from Tomsk, would inevitably have been contaminated and sickened, so deadly is this chemical weapon.
        Let's recap. Navalny did not have toxins in his body and specifically not organophosphate nerve agents of the Novichok type, according to the Russian toxicologists. Let's give them benefit of doubt. The poison was only detected '' allegedly '' by the German military laboratory five days after Navalny was received at the Berlin hospital last weekend. Yet the Germans '' and this is crucial '' are not sharing their bio-evidence with Russia. They have instead rushed to make grave accusations against Moscow, along with their Western allies. Without a chain of verifiable evidence, this is a travesty of due process.
        What this all relies on is presumption of guilt, as well as large prejudice stemming from Russophobia, and the invocation of dubious past unproven cases such as the 2018 alleged poisoning of British double agent Sergei Skripal in Salisbury. The whereabouts of Skripal and his daughter Yulia, a Russian citizen, remains a mystery which only the British authorities can reveal, yet their strange case is thrown at Moscow to answer for, just like the current Navalny case.
        The timing of the Navalny case is also significant. There are several current geopolitical factors at play. First there is the isolation of Washington at the United Nations in its attempt to force the reimposition of sanctions on Iran over the nuclear accord. This week saw Russian, Chinese, British, French and German diplomats meeting in Vienna in a bid to save the international nuclear deal in spite of American sabotage efforts. The Navalny case ''poisons'' diplomatic unity to defend the nuclear accord.
        Another geopolitical factor is the political upheaval in Belarus. Washington and the European Union appear to be exploiting the unrest to destabilize relations between Russia and its neighbor. The Navalny case fits an agenda of undermining Moscow and impeding its relations with Minsk.
        A third factor '' and this may be the most significant '' is the Nord Stream 2 gas supply project from Russia to Germany. The $11 billion, 1,200-kilometer pipeline has been targeted intensely by the Trump administration for derailment. There are also pro-Washington politicians in the ruling German Christian Democrat party who have been persistent in their opposition to the ambitious boost to energy trade between Russia and Europe.
        The New York Times headlined on September 3: ''Navalny Poisoning Raises Pressure on Merkel to Cancel Russian Pipeline''.
        Last week, Merkel was insisting that the Navalny case did not impinge on the Nord Stream 2 project's completion. This week, German military intelligence is claiming that Novichok was used to poison Navalny, and now Merkel is under intensified pressure to abandon the Nord Stream 2 project. As ever, the old criminologist question of who gains should be foremost here.
        Indeed, there are several serious questions to answer in the Navalny case. But it is Germany and its Western allies who are best placed to provide answers, not Russia.

        On the latest episode of The Michelle Obama Podcast, the former first lady and talk show host Conan O'Brien sat down to discuss all things marriage -- and Obama shared a surprising incident.
        The former first lady recalled how she strategically took off her engagement ring after an argument with her then fiance, Barack Obama -- but, she said, it was only for the "effect."
        "When we were engaged, I got mad at him about something, and I took my engagement ring off, and I said 'Forget this, who needs this,' and I threw the ring," Obama admitted to O'Brien. "We were in my car. I wasn't really throwing it out. I threw it where I would know it would go. I didn't mean it. I wasn't like 'this is it' -- it was [the] effect."
        Obama said that moment still serves as a reminder for Barack of "how fast and quickly" she can go from 0 to 100.

      Woodward book: Trump privately called COVID-19 'deadly' early on, boasted of secret weapons system | Fox News

        The Post reported Wednesday on passages from the book, 'Rage'President Trump told The Washington Post's Bob Woodward back in February that the emerging novel coronavirus was "deadly" -- speaking in more dire terms than he was publicly at the time -- according to an account of Woodward's new book which also said Trump boasted of building a secret weapons system.
        The Post reported Wednesday on passages from the book, "Rage," including Woodward's discussions with the president.
        The section on Trump's COVID-19 comments generated quick controversy, though the cryptic details on a new weapons system are sure to spark speculation. Woodward quoted Trump saying that the U.S. has built a weapons system ''that nobody's ever had in this country before.''
        ''I have built a nuclear '-- a weapons system that nobody's ever had in this country before,'' Trump said while discussing how close the U.S. came to war with North Korea in 2017, according to the Post. ''We have stuff that you haven't even seen or heard about. We have stuff that Putin and Xi have never heard about before. There's nobody '-- what we have is incredible.''
        SHOULD YOU GET A CORONAVIRUS TEST BEFORE SEEING FRIENDS AND FAMILY?
        Woodward reportedly wrote that anonymous sources confirmed there was a secret new weapons system, and the "sources were surprised Trump had disclosed it."
        Much of the report focuses on the Trump administration's response to the novel coronavirus pandemic.
        After being told by National Security Adviser Robert O'Brien that COVID-19 was going to be ''the biggest national security threat'' Trump would face in his term in the White House, the president reportedly called Woodward and told the journalist that the situation was much more dire than he was admitting publicly.
        ''You just breathe the air and that's how it's passed,'' Trump told Woodward during a Feb. 7 call. ''And so that's a very tricky one. That's a very delicate one. It's also more deadly than even your strenuous flu.''
        ''This is deadly stuff,'' the president said. Though this conversation happened in February, it was not reported until now.
        At that time, Trump was saying that the contagion was no more virulent than the seasonal flu, that the government had the virus under control and that it would soon disappear.
        ''I wanted to always play it down,'' the president told Woodward in a March conversation.
        As of Wednesday, COVID-19 has sickened more than 6.3 million Americans and killed almost 190,000, according to numbers compiled by Johns Hopkins University.

        Responding to questions about Woodward's book, White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany on Wednesday denied that Trump intentionally misled the American public about the threat of COVID-19.
        ''Absolutely not,'' she said. ''This president at a time when you're facing insurmountable challenges, it is important to express confidence, it is important to express calm.''
        McEnany added: "The president, just days after having this discussion with Bob Woodward, said this, from this podium on March 30th, he said 'I do want them to stay calm, we are doing a great job ... Stay calm. It will go away but it is important to stay calm.'''
        ''The president has never lied to the American public on the threat of COVID,'' she said. ''The president was expressing calm and his actions express that.''

        "Damaging," "reckless" and "disastrous" are some of the words Joe Biden has used to describe tariffs imposed by Donald Trump on allies and rivals alike. He may keep some in place anyway if he is elected president of the United States in November.
        Republicans largely abandoned traditional party goals such as unfettered trade and balanced budgets to embrace Trump's "America First" agenda. For Democratic-party challenger Biden, with a history of supporting free trade but also attuned to voices calling out for a different approach, the task is not so simple.
        Biden is backed by labor unions who want job protections and infrastructure spending, and progressives who want action on climate change, lower drug prices and human rights, while facing demands from farmers and U.S. corporations eager for tariff cuts and a less disruptive China trade relationship.
        The mix of conflicting interests adds up to a wait-and-see approach that could keep many of the tariffs Biden would inherit from Trump in place for years, say former and current advisers, lobbyists and trade analysts.
        "It's unclear how he will balance these different competing forces," said Mary Lovely, a Syracuse University economics professor and senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics.
        The series of staggered tariffs the Trump administration imposed on $370 billion worth of Chinese goods in 2018 and 2019 have cost U.S. importers some $61.6 billion to date, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection data and have been blamed for eroding U.S. manufacturing competitiveness.
        Duties on steel, aluminum, washing machines, solar panels and European Union goods added another $12.2 billion in punitive collections through Sept. 2.
        The U.S. trade deficit with China narrowed in 2019, but Census Bureau data on Thursday showed the nation's trade gap in July jumped to $63.6 billion, its widest in 12 years, with China accounting for nearly half of it.
        Trade experts say Biden's hands may be tied.
        "I don't see any scenario in which he can go in, in the first 6-12 months, and lift those tariffs," said Nathan Sheets, a former Obama administration Treasury undersecretary who negotiated with China on economic issues.
        "The current political environment - left, right and center - is going to require Biden to be tough on China," said Sheets, now chief economist with PGIM Fixed Income.
        From free trade to fair tradeBiden has backed free trade over his three decades in Congress, during a period when increasing globalization was viewed as a path to prosperity. He supported the 1994 North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and China's entry into the World Trade Organization in 2001.
        As vice president, he was a vocal proponent of the Trans-Pacific Partnership, the Obama administration's attempt to counter China's growing influence in Asia.
        That support for free trade has given ammunition for Trump to attack Biden as being ''soft on China'' and allowing U.S. jobs to migrate to low-wage countries.
        Biden has struck back, saying he is not afraid to use trade barriers - but only when they make sense.
        ''I will use tariffs when they are needed, but the difference between me and Trump is that I will have a strategy - a plan - to use those tariffs to win, not just to fake toughness,'' Biden wrote in a statement to the United Steelworkers union in May. Steel and aluminum tariffs would stay until a global solution to limit excess production - largely centered in China - can be negotiated, it said.
        Biden's "Made in All of America" economic plan suggests the use of carbon-based tariffs to punish countries failing to meet climate goals, a move that could please progressives eager for the United States to take a stand on global warming.
        The plan also vows reform of the World Trade Organization, and ''aggressive trade enforcement actions'' against unfair practices by China and other countries, including currency manipulation, dumping of below-cost exports, and ''state-owned company abuses, or unfair subsidies.''
        The Trump administration aimed to address Chinese dumping and state subsidies, but the Phase 1 trade deal does not.
        Making peace with allies on tradeOne way Biden would depart from Trump is by consulting with allies about the best way to deal with China, said Jeff Prescott, a Biden campaign policy adviser.
        Working with Europe, Japan and other allies ''can bring a significant percentage of the global economy to bear'' on China to curb non-market practices and to reform WTO rules, he said.
        Trump still has support from many blue-collar workers in the swing states of Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, but Biden is backed by the country's biggest union group.
        AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka said on Thursday he believes Biden would impose rules to ''keep workers safe'' in the pandemic, use tax incentives to encourage the reshoring of critical supply chains and deliver a major infrastructure spending drive, with strong ''Buy American'' requirements.
        Trump, he said, ''hasn't lived up to his hype.''
        Jon Lieber, U.S. managing director for the Eurasia Group political risk consultancy, said that while what Biden is proposing is a different brand of economic nationalism than Trump, ''lower barriers for China would be totally inconsistent with that goal.''
        Whatever the decisions on trade, Biden advisers say there is no going back to the pre-Trump trade consensus, where businesses successfully pushed U.S. governments to continually shrink trade barriers, while touting globalization.
        ''There's a kind of recognition that ultimately the goal of international economic policy is not to make the world safe for multinational corporations to do business,'' said Prescott. ''It's fundamentally about jobs in the United States, about the middle class at home and building our economy here.''

        The United States Ambassador to France and a former top aide to ex-White House Chief of Staff John Kelly both denied that they had heard President Donald Trump refer to deceased American war dead as ''losers'' during a 2018 France trip, putting a fake news story reported by the Atlantic that only cited supposed anonymous sources to bed.
        Former Kelly aide Zach Fuentes and US Ambassador both denied that they heard Trump say any such thing in remarks on the story on Monday.
        ''You can put me on record denying that I spoke with The Atlantic,'' Fuentes told Breitbart News on Monday. ''I don't know who the sources are.

        Ambassador Jamie McCourt, who was on hand for President Trump's commemoration of World War I's hundredth anniversary in France, also denied that she heard any such claim from the President.

        ''Needless to say, I never spoke to the Atlantic, and I can't imagine who would,'' McCourt told Breitbart News. ''In my presence, POTUS has NEVER denigrated any member of the U.S. military or anyone in service to our country. And he certainly did not that day, either. Let me add, he was devastated to not be able to go to the cemetery at Belleau Wood. In fact, the next day, he attended and spoke at the ceremony in Suresnes in the pouring rain.''
        Corporate news outlets have reported the outlandish and sensational Trump ''losers'' story, which claims that the President flagrantly insulted World War I war dead buried in France, as if it is verified fact. An unclear number of totally anonymous supposed government officials have reportedly vouched to it to the Atlantic and Fox News, but not one individual has publicly attested to its veracity.
        The two denials of government officials on Monday make for a total of 15 public denials- all from verified Trump administration employees, easily outweighing a shadowy allegation from someone who is too afraid to speak publicly about the sensational claim.

        "By the end of my first term, we will have confirmed a record number of federal judges, over 300, all of whom will faithfully uphold our Consitution as written," Trump said on Wednesday.
        "What has always made America exceptional is our reverence for the impartial rule of law," he added. "Equality under the law is the bedrock of our society, it is the principle that inspired American heroes to abolish slavery and end segregation, secure civil rights, and build the most free and just nation in history."

          NATIONWIDE '-- U.S. Marshals announced the safe rescue of 8 ''highly endangered'' missing children in Indiana over the weekend as part of ''Operation Homecoming.'' Similar operations in nearby states have led to the rescue of 72 children since mid-August.
          What You Need To KnowU.S. Marshals have rescued 72 children across the Midwest in three separate operations since mid-AugustIndiana's "Operation Homecoming" led to the safe rescue of eight "highly endangered" childrenOhio's "Operation Safety Net" led to rescue of 25 children in the effort's first two weeksGeorgia's "Operation Not Forgotten" led to the rescue or safe location of 39 childrenThe coordinated search in Indiana, which included multiple state and local agencies, led to the arrest of one suspect, per a news release from the U.S. Marshals.
          ''Federal investigators coordinated with IMPD and NCMEC to recover eight highly endangered missing children resulting in one arrest of an adult subject for charges filed, including alleged crimes related to parental kidnapping, intimidation, weapons possession and custodial interference,'' the statement read in part.
          ''These children, between the ages of 6 and 17, were considered to be some of the most at-risk and challenging recovery cases in the area, based on indications of high-risk factors such as victimization of child sex trafficking, child exploitation, sex abuse, physical abuse and medical or mental health conditions,'' the statment continued.
          The children were turned over to the Indiana Department of Child Services. Further details on the case have not been released.
          ''The Marshals are committed to assisting state and local agencies with locating and recovering endangered missing children to help prevent their falling victim to crimes of violence and exploitation,'' Dan McClain, U.S. Marshal for the Southern District of Indiana, said following the rescue. ''The message that we wish to convey to the missing children and their families is that we will use every resource at our disposal to find you.''
          In late August, U.S. Marshals announced that a similar sting in Ohio dubbed ''Operation Safety Net'' recovered 25 missing children in its first two weeks, although the operation is ongoing.
          The children, between 13 and 18 years old, were mostly recovered from high-risk situations, and at least one child was found as far away as Florida.
          ''These are kids that have been abused, neglected. Some involved in human trafficking,'' U.S. Marshal Pete Elliott told local Cleveland station WOIO. ''Some we found in Miami, Fla. We have Bedford, Bedford Heights, West Side, East Side, Akron, Mansfield and so on...We're trying to do our part. A number of these children have gone to the hospital after we've recovered them to get checked out, so again this is something we take very seriously.''
          Just a few days before Ohio announced the success of their operation, 39 missing children, including some alleged sex-trafficking victims, were recovered following a two-week operation in Georgia.
          ''Operation Not Forgotten'' in metro Atlanta and Macon resulted in the rescue of 25 children, the safe location of 13 others and the arrests of nine people for alleged crimes related to sex trafficking, parental kidnapping, registered sex-offender violations, drugs and weapons possession, and custodial interference. The initiative involved the U.S. Marshals Service, the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, and Georgia state and local agencies.
          The missing children were considered to be some of the most at-risk and challenging recovery cases in the area, based on indications of sex trafficking, exploitation, sexual abuse, physical abuse and medical or mental health conditions, the U.S. Marshals Service said in a press release.
          Fifteen of the children had allegedly been trafficked for sex, authorities said, according to the Atlanta Journal Constitution.
          ''Sex trafficking can be, in many ways, a hidden crime '-- one that lives in the shadows,'' Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr said at a news conference Thursday. ''If we can save one child from a life of abuse or sex trafficking, we've done our job. And this operation did that for many, many children.''
          In other cases, children were located at the request of law enforcement to ensure their well-being. Investigators were able to confirm each child's location in person and assure their safety and welfare.
          The children ranged in ages from 3 to 17 and had been missing anywhere from two weeks to two years. Some of them were reluctant to leave the homes where they were found, which officials said often happens with children or teens who are repeatedly subjected to sexual abuse.
          Donald Washington, director of the U.S. Marshals Service, said that of the more than 421,000 children missing in the country, 91% are considered endangered runaways and about one-sixth are likely to become sex-trafficking victims.

        J LO IS ARRESTED UPDATED ARRESTED & EXECUTED LIST 8-9-20
        J LO is a high level witch. This has been confirmed many times. Just watch the video. Don't be fooled by the doubles, clones, CGI. These people are in jail or executed
        It is really amazing that this satan worship is able to go this far into
        major places like Hollywood and major politicians. These stars actually
        sell their souls for stardom & success. Stars like Gomez & Houston were
        two of the most evil. All of these are facing charges of crimes against
        humanity. It still just amazes me that someone can actually to this to
        a child.
        Sonny Bono was murdered. He did not die in a skiing accident. He had two types of people who wanted him dead. He had the cabal who he was starting to investigate while he was a Congressman. money laundering & drugs. He also had refused to get involved in the satanic worship in the music industry and with his ex wife high satanic witch Cher and her child sacrificing in satanic worship.
        He knew too much. They had to kill him. Watch the video
        Cher is a high level witch in the satanic worship and got her daughter who turned herself into a man and became a tranny within this satanic worship and sacraficing of children.
        Ellen Degeneres is facing execution. She is not only scared to death, but I think she is sending out a confession & possible warning with the video above, There was a rumor that went viral on July 7th that she was dead. She is not. I expect an execution soon, but I have not had intel that it has happened yet. She now looks awful because her supply of adrenochrome has been cut off. HER SHOW HAS BEEN CANCELLED
        Howard Howie Mandell has been arrested. He faces execution. He is a satan worshipper and sacrificed children
        He was arrested and put on house arrest and refused to wear the ankle GPS, so he was put under heavy guard. He went to tik tok and started videoing crazy stuf
        giving cryptic messages trying to say he has been kidnapped and being held by armed gunmen. Well, yes he is. That's what happens to a person when they have been arrested
        and refusing to wear the ankle bracelet Just watch some of the crazy antics in the video above.
        I thought Bill & Melinda Gates would have been executed by now
        but I had no intel of that. Well there is a reason for that. They were already dead and they were dealing with
        doubles. I received intel that they were in India in 2013 giving children vaccinations and many died, or was left paralyzed
        because of the vaccine. The people who had their children vaccinated and had died or paralyzed seized the two and
        hanged them both at the same time in July of 2013. They both died in july of 2013.
        The persons they have on house arrest are not them. They are doubles
        TAKE NOTE. SOME OF THE PERSONS ARRESTED HAS RESULTS CHANGED FROM WAITING FOR TRIBUNAL TO EXECUTION OR LIFE
        PEOPLE WHO ARE SERVING LIFE HAVE RECEIVED A PLEA DEAL. IF THEY VIOLATE THE TERMS OF THE DEAL THE DEATH SENTENCE WILL BE SERVEDDO NOT ASK ME ABOUT ANYONE WHO IS NOT IN THE LIST BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE INTEL ON THAT PERSON
        LIST OF ARRESTED & EXECUTED
        Before you scroll down to see the list, Read this explanation. The tribunals are arresting these people in plain clothes. We saw the arrest of Obama's. The arrest was done nonchalantly so as to not get noticed by the public. Just in case you missed it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUS5cmkp_AI
        All arrests of these people were done that way. If the person is convicted of child sex trafficking, or crimes against humanity, they will be executed. It they are convicted of treason they will be executed. Before the trial, if the person has evidence on someone else to help the prosecution or is willing to help Trump. and they want to cooperate and do things for trump to drop a possible sentence of execution down to life in prison then they are allowed to do that if the evidence is worth anything. When a plea deal is done the defendant has to present anything they have to make the possible sentence lighter. That information is given to the prosecution, defense, and to the judge. If it is accepted they are presented the plea deal, and then they have to make a written statement and plead guilty to the crime with a video confession and the written statement. That is how all plea deals work.
        All of the people arrested were either treasonous or involved in Satanic worship rituals involving torchuring children then murdering them as a sacrifice. Then drinking their blood that contains adrenochrome. This is called crimes against humanity and calls for death. Trump signed an Executive Order calling for the death penalty for anyone involved in crimes of humanity or treason to be given a tribunal and sentenced to execution
        If the arrested were taking orders from the cabal & carrying out those orders. That is called Treason
        Obama said ''I was only following orders'' . Yeah orders that made him commit treason. He made a pea deal and was let out for a time to help Trump, but somewhere along the line he violated the plea deal and was rearrested and was put before a firing squad and shot in the back of the head. Lying Big Mike was executed shortly after. We will find out next year when all this is released. Obama turned over on Big Mike to get a plea deal.
        Everyone who was arrested made a video confession, to get a plea deal, even if it was just death by lethal injection instead of firing squad or hanging. Lethal injection is a preferred way to die. You simply fall asleep and don't wake up. It is painless and peaceful. Big Mike got the lethal injection, I have to think he made a video confession.
        Everyone who has been executed has a double or clone. These are put in place by the white hats to make people think they are still around. That is so the people who are are not awake will not get angry or upset enough to start riots against the government for executing someone they loved. Like Madonna, or other celebrity. Or get so upset they have to go to the hospital. I know some people who would have to be put in the psych ward. They will be unable to accept that they have been lied to all their life. Believe it or not there are many democrats out there who still love obama & Michelle. Michelle has recently been on PBS reading books to children, Obama appeared with her in one session. These are videos that are done with CGI. They are fake. They both are dead.
        If you see a video of the person arrested and executed, it is done by CGI. If the person is making a personal appearance, it will be a double or a clone. The Pence that you have seen on tv with Trump is a clone. He was arrested long ago after the coup he was involved in with Paul Ryan
        If a person has died of corona virus, they will not get a double, because people know he died.
        Harvey Weinstein turned over on everyone in hollywood. It is has been destroyed
        John McCain was executed and his daughter admitted it on the view. If you haven't seen it here is is. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cc1Lr7EjZ5o
        HRC died the day she spoke at the 9/11 event and collapsed at the SUV when she was told she was under arrest. They rushed her to her daughter house because it is a medical facility for her. A double came out and said she was ok. At this medical facility at Chelsea's place she was revived by very interesting technology using adrenochrome and babies blood. She was taken to Greenland and put on ice and kept alive in a vegetative state. She was given a tribunal and she was sentenced to death by hanging. She was brought back to conciseness and hanged. All of this is video taped by analog video. All video confessions was don in analog video.
        By the way GITMO is full. Some of the people who were arrested and on house arrest or at GITMO, are still in the tribunal negotiating a deal.
        There are many many who have been arrested who did not make this list because they just weren't famous enough. There have been thousands of arrests
        I have not provided dates of arrests or executions because I don't have that info. Most of these people were charged with crimes against humanity. Some were charged with treason. Some were charged with both
        I may have missed someone famous on the list because I had not been able to confirm it at the time the list was made. The list was made yesterday. I apologize for the messed up format. Patreon just does't want to cooperate with me on that.
        NOTE: THERE HAVE BEEN THOUSANDS OF ARRESTS AROUND THE WORLD. IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO LIST THEM ALL. HERE IS JUST A FEW. DON'T ASK ME ABOUT THIS PERSON OR THAT PERSON. I WILL UPDATE THE LIST WHEN I GET THE INTEL.

        https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=4213710368698880&set=a.431093430293945 LIST OF ARRESTED & EXECUTED Jul 27, 2020
        SONNY BONO MURDEREDSonny Bono was murdered. He did not die in a skiing accident. He had two types of people who wanted him dead. He had the cabal who he was starting to investigate while he was a Congressman. money laundering & drugs. He also had refused to get involved in the satanic worship in the music industry and with his ex wife high satanic witch Cher and her child sacrificing in satanic worship.
        He knew too much. They had to kill him. Watch the video
        Cher is a high level witch in the satanic worship and got her daughter who turned herself into a man and became a tranny within this satanic worship and sacraficing of children. Cher & Chaz both were arrested and waiting tribunal. I expect both will be executed, unless they have very valuable info the investigators want, which I doubt because the investigators have just about everything from Epstein, Maxwell, & Weistein. Between those three presenting evidence, Hollywood is dead & gone.
        Ellen Degeneres is facing execution. She is not only scared to death, but I think she is sending out a confession & possible warning with the video above, There was a rumor that went viral on July 7th that she was dead. She is not. I expect an execution soon, but I have not had intel that it has happened yet. She now looks awful because her supply of adrenochrome has been cut off. HER SHOW HAS BEEN CANCELLED
        Howard Howie Mandell has been arrested. He faces execution. He is a satan worshipper and sacrificed children
        He was arrested and put on house arrest and refused to wear the ankle GPS, so he was put under heavy guard. He went to tik tok and started videoing crazy stuf
        giving cryptic messages trying to say he has been kidnapped and being held by armed gunmen. Well, yes he is. That's what happens to a person when they have been arrested
        and refusing to wear the ankle bracelet Just watch some of the crazy antics in the video above.
        I thought Bill & Melinda Gates would have been executed by now
        but I had no intel of that. Well there is a reason for that. They were already dead and they were dealing with
        doubles. I received intel that they were in India in 2013 giving children vaccinations and many died, or was left paralyzed
        because of the vaccine. The people who had their children vaccinated and had died or paralyzed seized the two and
        hanged them both at the same time in July of 2013. They both died in july of 2013.
        The persons they have on house arrest are not them. They are doubles
        TAKE NOTE. SOME OF THE PERSONS ARRESTED HAS RESULTS CHANGED FROM WAITING FOR TRIBUNAL TO EXECUTION OR LIFE
        PEOPLE WHO ARE SERVING LIFE HAVE RECEIVED A PLEA DEAL. IF THEY VIOLATE THE TERMS OF THE DEAL THE DEATH SENTENCE WILL BE SERVED
        DO NOT ASK ME ABOUT ANYONE WHO IS NOT IN THE LIST BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE INTEL ON THAT PERSON
        LIST OF ARRESTED & EXECUTED
        Before you scroll down to see the list, Read this explanation. The tribunals are arresting these people in plain clothes. We saw the arrest of Obama's. The arrest was done nonchalantly so as to not get noticed by the public. Just in case you missed it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUS5cmkp_AI
        All arrests of these people were done that way. If the person is convicted of child sex trafficking, or crimes against humanity, they will be executed. It they are convicted of treason they will be executed. Before the trial, if the person has evidence on someone else to help the prosecution or is willing to help Trump. and they want to cooperate and do things for trump to drop a possible sentence of execution down to life in prison then they are allowed to do that if the evidence is worth anything. When a plea deal is done the defendant has to present anything they have to make the possible sentence lighter. That information is given to the prosecution, defense, and to the judge. If it is accepted they are presented the plea deal, and then they have to make a written statement and plead guilty to the crime with a video confession and the written statement. That is how all plea deals work.
        All of the people arrested were either treasonous or involved in Satanic worship rituals involving torchuring children then murdering them as a sacrifice. Then drinking their blood that contains adrenochrome. This is called crimes against humanity and calls for death. Trump signed an Executive Order calling for the death penalty for anyone involved in crimes of humanity or treason to be given a tribunal and sentenced to execution
        If the arrested were taking orders from the cabal & carrying out those orders. That is called Treason
        Obama said ''I was only following orders'' . Yeah orders that made him commit treason. He made a pea deal and was let out for a time to help Trump, but somewhere along the line he violated the plea deal and was rearrested and was put before a firing squad and shot in the back of the head. Lying Big Mike was executed shortly after. We will find out next year when all this is released. Obama turned over on Big Mike to get a plea deal.
        Everyone who was arrested made a video confession, to get a plea deal, even if it was just death by lethal injection instead of firing squad or hanging. Lethal injection is a preferred way to die. You simply fall asleep and don't wake up. It is painless and peaceful. Big Mike got the lethal injection, I have to think he made a video confession.
        Everyone who has been executed has a double or clone. These are put in place by the white hats to make people think they are still around. That is so the people who are are not awake will not get angry or upset enough to start riots against the government for executing someone they loved. Like Madonna, or other celebrity. Or get so upset they have to go to the hospital. I know some people who would have to be put in the psych ward. They will be unable to accept that they have been lied to all their life. Believe it or not there are many democrats out there who still love obama & Michelle. Michelle has recently been on PBS reading books to children, Obama appeared with her in one session. These are videos that are done with CGI. They are fake. They both are dead.
        If you see a video of the person arrested and executed, it is done by CGI. If the person is making a personal appearance, it will be a double or a clone. The Pence that you have seen on tv with Trump is a clone. He was arrested long ago after the coup he was involved in with Paul Ryan
        If a person has died of corona virus, they will not get a double, because people know he died.
        Harvey Weinstein turned over on everyone in hollywood. It is has been destroyed
        John McCain was executed and his daughter admitted it on the view. If you haven't seen it here is is. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cc1Lr7EjZ5o
        HRC died the day she spoke at the 9/11 event and collapsed at the SUV when she was told she was under arrest. They rushed her to her daughter house because it is a medical facility for her. A double came out and said she was ok. At this medical facility at Chelsea's place she was revived by very interesting technology using adrenochrome and babies blood. She was taken to Greenland and put on ice and kept alive in a vegetative state. She was given a tribunal and she was sentenced to death by hanging. She was brought back to conciseness and hanged. All of this is video taped by analog video. All video confessions was don in analog video.
        By the way GITMO is full. Some of the people who were arrested and on house arrest or at GITMO, are still in the tribunal negotiating a deal. Gates for instance will not be able to negotiate a deal because we already have the same evidence that he is using to get a deal. It won't work. He will be executed.
        There are many many who have been arrested who did not make this list because they just weren't famous enough. There have been thousands of arrests
        I have not provided dates of arrests or executions because I don't have that info. Most of these people were charged with crimes against humanity. Some were charged with treason. Some were charged with both
        I may have missed someone famous on the list because I had not been able to confirm it at the time the list was made. The list was made yesterday. I apologize for the messed up format. Patreon just does't want to cooperate with me on that.
        NOTE: THERE HAVE BEEN THOUSANDS OF ARRESTS AROUND THE WORLD. IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO LIST THEM ALL. HERE IS JUST A FEW. DON'T ASK ME ABOUT THIS PERSON OR THAT PERSON. I WILL UPDATE THE LIST WHEN I GET THE INTEL.

        UPDATED LIST OF ARREST & EXECUTIONS 7-19-20
        Ellen Degeneres is facing execution. She is not only scared to death, but I think she is sending out a confession & possible warning with the video above, There was a rumor that went viral on July 7th that she was dead. She is not. I expect an execution soon, but I have not had intel that it has happened yet. She now looks awful because her supply of adrenochrome has been cut off. HER SHOW HAS BEEN CANCELLED
        Howard Howie Mandell has been arrested. He faces execution. He is a satan worshipper and sacrificed children
        He was arrested and put on house arrest and refused to wear the ankle GPS, so he was put under heavy guard. He went to tik tok and started videoing crazy stuff giving cryptic messages trying to say he has been kidnapped and being held by armed gunmen. Well, yes he is. That's what happens to a person when they have been arrested and refusing to wear the ankle bracelet Just watch some of the crazy antics in the video above.
        I thought Bill & Melinda Gates would have been executed by now but I had no intel of that. Well there is a reason for that. They were already dead and they were dealing with doubles. I received intel that they were in India in 2013 giving children vaccinations and many died, or was left paralyzed because of the vaccine. The people who had their children vaccinated and had died or paralyzed seized the two and hanged them both at the same time in July of 2013. They both died in july of 2013.
        The persons they have on house arrest are not them. They are doubles
        TAKE NOTE. SOME OF THE PERSONS ARRESTED HAS RESULTS CHANGED FROM WAITING FOR TRIBUNAL TO EXECUTION OR LIFE
        PEOPLE WHO ARE SERVING LIFE HAVE RECEIVED A PLEA DEAL. IF THEY VIOLATE THE TERMS OF THE DEAL THE DEATH SENTENCE WILL BE SERVED
        DO NOT ASK ME ABOUT ANYONE WHO IS NOT IN THE LIST BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE INTEL ON THAT PERSON
        LIST OF ARRESTED & EXECUTED
        Before you scroll down to see the list, Read this explanation. The tribunals are arresting these people in plain clothes. We saw the arrest of Obama's. The arrest was done nonchalantly so as to not get noticed by the public. Just in case you missed it.
        All arrests of these people were done that way. If the person is convicted of child sex trafficking, or crimes against humanity, they will be executed. It they are convicted of treason they will be executed. Before the trial, if the person has evidence on someone else to help the prosecution or is willing to help Trump. and they want to cooperate and do things for trump to drop a possible sentence of execution down to life in prison then they are allowed to do that if the evidence is worth anything. When a plea deal is done the defendant has to present anything they have to make the possible sentence lighter. That information is given to the prosecution, defense, and to the judge. If it is accepted they are presented the plea deal, and then they have to make a written statement and plead guilty to the crime with a video confession and the written statement. That is how all plea deals work.
        All of the people arrested were either treasonous or involved in Satanic worship rituals involving torchuring children then murdering them as a sacrifice. Then drinking their blood that contains adrenochrome. This is called crimes against humanity and calls for death. Trump signed an Executive Order calling for the death penalty for anyone involved in crimes of humanity or treason to be given a tribunal and sentenced to execution
        If the arrested were taking orders from the cabal & carrying out those orders. That is called Treason
        Obama said ''I was only following orders'' . Yeah orders that made him commit treason. He made a pea deal and was let out for a time to help Trump, but somewhere along the line he violated the plea deal and was rearrested and was put before a firing squad and shot in the back of the head. Lying Big Mike was executed shortly after. We will find out next year when all this is released. Obama turned over on Big Mike to get a plea deal.
        Everyone who was arrested made a video confession, to get a plea deal, even if it was just death by lethal injection instead of firing squad or hanging. Lethal injection is a preferred way to die. You simply fall asleep and don't wake up. It is painless and peaceful. Big Mike got the lethal injection, I have to think he made a video confession.
        Everyone who has been executed has a double or clone. These are put in place by the white hats to make people think they are still around. That is so the people who are are not awake will not get angry or upset enough to start riots against the government for executing someone they loved. Like Madonna, or other celebrity. Or get so upset they have to go to the hospital. I know some people who would have to be put in the psych ward. They will be unable to accept that they have been lied to all their life. Believe it or not there are many democrats out there who still love obama & Michelle. Michelle has recently been on PBS reading books to children, Obama appeared with her in one session. These are videos that are done with CGI. They are fake. They both are dead.
        If you see a video of the person arrested and executed, it is done by CGI. If the person is making a personal appearance, it will be a double or a clone. The Pence that you have seen on tv with Trump is a clone. He was arrested long ago after the coup he was involved in with Paul Ryan
        If a person has died of corona virus, they will not get a double, because people know he died.
        Harvey Weinstein turned over on everyone in hollywood. It is has been destroyed
        John McCain was executed and his daughter admitted it on the view. If you haven't seen it here is is.
        HRC died the day she spoke at the 9/11 event and collapsed at the SUV when she was told she was under arrest. They rushed her to her daughter house because it is a medical facility for her. A double came out and said she was ok. At this medical facility at Chelsea's place she was revived by very interesting technology using adrenochrome and babies blood. She was taken to Greenland and put on ice and kept alive in a vegetative state. She was given a tribunal and she was sentenced to death by hanging. She was brought back to conciseness and hanged. All of this is video taped by analog video. All video confessions was don in analog video.
        By the way GITMO is full. Some of the people who were arrested and on house arrest or at GITMO, are still in the tribunal negotiating a deal. Gates for instance will not be able to negotiate a deal because we already have the same evidence that he is using to get a deal. It won't work. He will be executed.
        There are many many who have been arrested who did not make this list because they just weren't famous enough. There have been thousands of arrests
        I have not provided dates of arrests or executions because I don't have that info. Most of these people were charged with crimes against humanity. Some were charged with treason. Some were charged with both
        I may have missed someone famous on the list because I had not been able to confirm it at the time the list was made. The list was made yesterday. I apologize for the messed up format. Patreon just does't want to cooperate with me on that.
        NOTE: THERE HAVE BEEN THOUSANDS OF ARRESTS AROUND THE WORLD. IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO LIST THEM ALL. HERE IS JUST A FEW. DON'T ASK ME ABOUT THIS PERSON OR THAT PERSON. I WILL UPDATE THE LIST WHEN I GET THE INTEL.

        ARRESTED & EXECUTION LIST UPDATED 7-12-20 ''DEAL OR NO DEAL''Howard Howie Mandell has been arrested. He faces execution. He is a satan worshipper and sacrificed children
        He was arrested and put on house arrest and refused to wear the ankle GPS, so he was put under heavy guard. He went to tik tok and started videoing crazy stuff giving cryptic messages trying to say he has been kidnapped and being held by armed gunmen. Well, yes he is. That's what happens to a person when they have been arrested and refusing to wear the ankle bracelet Just watch some of the crazy antics in the video above.
        I thought Bill & Melinda Gates would have been executed by now
        but I had no intel of that. Well there is a reason for that. They were already dead and they were dealing with
        doubles. I received intel that they were in India in 2013 giving children vaccinations and many died, or was left paralyzed
        because of the vaccine. The people who had their children vaccinated and had died or paralyzed seized the two and hanged them both at the same time in July of 2013. They both died in July of 2013.
        The persons they have on house arrest are not them. They are doubles
        TAKE NOTE. SOME OF THE PERSONS ARRESTED HAS RESULTS CHANGED FROM WAITING FOR TRIBUNAL TO EXECUTION OR LIFE
        PEOPLE WHO ARE SERVING LIFE HAVE RECEIVED A PLEA DEAL. IF THEY VIOLATE THE TERMS OF THE DEAL THE DEATH SENTENCE WILL BE SERVED
        DO NOT ASK ME ABOUT ANYONE WHO IS NOT IN THE LIST BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE INTEL ON THAT PERSON
        LIST OF ARRESTED & EXECUTED
        Before you scroll down to see the list, Read this explanation. The tribunals are arresting these people in plain clothes. We saw the arrest of Obama's. The arrest was done nonchalantly so as to not get noticed by the public. Just in case you missed it.
        All arrests of these people were done that way. If the person is convicted of child sex trafficking, or crimes against humanity, they will be executed. It they are convicted of treason they will be executed. Before the trial, if the person has evidence on someone else to help the prosecution or is willing to help Trump. and they want to cooperate and do things for trump to drop a possible sentence of execution down to life in prison then they are allowed to do that if the evidence is worth anything. When a plea deal is done the defendant has to present anything they have to make the possible sentence lighter. That information is given to the prosecution, defense, and to the judge. If it is accepted they are presented the plea deal, and then they have to make a written statement and plead guilty to the crime with a video confession and the written statement. That is how all plea deals work.
        All of the people arrested were either treasonous or involved in Satanic worship rituals involving torchuring children then murdering them as a sacrifice. Then drinking their blood that contains adrenochrome. This is called crimes against humanity and calls for death. Trump signed an Executive Order calling for the death penalty for anyone involved in crimes of humanity or treason to be given a tribunal and sentenced to execution
        If the arrested were taking orders from the cabal & carrying out those orders. That is called Treason
        Obama said ''I was only following orders'' . Yeah orders that made him commit treason. He made a pea deal and was let out for a time to help Trump, but somewhere along the line he violated the plea deal and was rearrested and was put before a firing squad and shot in the back of the head. Lying Big Mike was executed shortly after. We will find out next year when all this is released. Obama turned over on Big Mike to get a plea deal.
        Everyone who was arrested made a video confession, to get a plea deal, even if it was just death by lethal injection instead of firing squad or hanging. Lethal injection is a preferred way to die. You simply fall asleep and don't wake up. It is painless and peaceful. Big Mike got the lethal injection, I have to think he made a video confession.
        Everyone who has been executed has a double or clone. These are put in place by the white hats to make people think they are still around. That is so the people who are are not awake will not get angry or upset enough to start riots against the government for executing someone they loved. Like Madonna, or other celebrity. Or get so upset they have to go to the hospital. I know some people who would have to be put in the psych ward. They will be unable to accept that they have been lied to all their life. Believe it or not there are many democrats out there who still love obama & Michelle. Michelle has recently been on PBS reading books to children, Obama appeared with her in one session. These are videos that are done with CGI. They are fake. They both are dead.
        If you see a video of the person arrested and executed, it is done by CGI. If the person is making a personal appearance, it will be a double or a clone. The Pence that you have seen on tv with Trump is a clone. He was arrested long ago after the coup he was involved in with Paul Ryan
        If a person has died of corona virus, they will not get a double, because people know he died.
        Harvey Weinstein turned over on everyone in hollywood. It is has been destroyed
        John McCain was executed and his daughter admitted it on the view. If you haven't seen it here is is.
        HRC died the day she spoke at the 9/11 event and collapsed at the SUV when she was told she was under arrest. They rushed her to her daughter house because it is a medical facility for her. A double came out and said she was ok. At this medical facility at Chelsea's place she was revived by very interesting technology using adrenochrome and babies blood. She was taken to Greenland and put on ice and kept alive in a vegetative state. She was given a tribunal and she was sentenced to death by hanging. She was brought back to conciseness and hanged. All of this is video taped by analog video. All video confessions was don in analog video.
        By the way GITMO is full. Some of the people who were arrested and on house arrest or at GITMO, are still in the tribunal negotiating a deal. Gates for instance will not be able to negotiate a deal because we already have the same evidence that he is using to get a deal. It won't work. He will be executed.
        There are many many who have been arrested who did not make this list because they just weren't famous enough. There have been thousands of arrests
        I have not provided dates of arrests or executions because I don't have that info. Most of these people were charged with crimes against humanity. Some were charged with treason. Some were charged with both
        I may have missed someone famous on the list because I had not been able to confirm it at the time the list was made. The list was made yesterday. I apologize for the messed up format. Patreon just does't want to cooperate with me on that.
        NOTE: THERE HAVE BEEN THOUSANDS OF ARRESTS AROUND THE WORLD. IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO LIST THEM ALL. HERE IS JUST A FEW. DON'T ASK ME ABOUT THIS PERSON OR THAT PERSON. I WILL UPDATE THE LIST WHEN I GET THE INTEL.

        START LOOKING FOR AN HONEST CONSERVATIVE TO ELECT PRIME MINISTER IN YOUR COUNTRY
        Scot Morrison '' Prime Minister of AustraliaARREST & EXECUTION LIST UPDATED 6-28-20I thought Bill & Melinda Gates would have been executed by now, but I had no intel of that. Well there is a reason for that. They were already dead and they were dealing with doubles. I received intel that they were in India in 2013 giving children vaccinations and many died, or were left paralyzed because of the vaccine. The people who had their children vaccinated and had died or paralyzed seized the two and hanged them both at the same time in July of 2013. They both died in July of 2013.
        The persons they have on house arrest are not them. They are doubles
        TAKE NOTE. SOME OF THE PERSONS ARRESTED HAS RESULTS CHANGED FROM WAITING FOR TRIBUNAL TO EXECUTION OR LIFE
        PEOPLE WHO ARE SERVING LIFE HAVE RECEIVED A PLEA DEAL. IF THEY VIOLATE THE TERMS OF THE DEAL THE DEATH SENTENCE WILL BE SERVED
        ANYONE WHO IS NOT IN THE LIST IS BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE INTEL ON THAT PERSON
        LIST OF ARRESTED & EXECUTED
        Before you scroll down to see the list, Read this explanation. The tribunals are arresting these people in plain clothes. We saw the arrest of Obama's. The arrest was done nonchalantly so as to not get noticed by the public. Just in case you missed it.
        All arrests of these people were done that way. If the person is convicted of child sex trafficking, or crimes against humanity, they will be executed. It they are convicted of treason they will be executed. Before the trial, if the person has evidence on someone else to help the prosecution or is willing to help Trump. and they want to cooperate and do things for trump to drop a possible sentence of execution down to life in prison then they are allowed to do that if the evidence is worth anything. When a plea deal is done the defendant has to present anything they have to make the possible sentence lighter. That information is given to the prosecution, defense, and to the judge. If it is accepted they are presented the plea deal, and then they have to make a written statement and plead guilty to the crime with a video confession and the written statement. That is how all plea deals work.
        All of the people arrested were either treasonous or involved in Satanic worship rituals involving torchuring children then murdering them as a sacrifice. Then drinking their blood that contains adrenochrome. This is called crimes against humanity and calls for death. Trump signed an Executive Order calling for the death penalty for anyone involved in crimes of humanity or treason to be given a tribunal and sentenced to execution
        If the arrested were taking orders from the cabal & carrying out those orders. That is called Treason
        Obama said ''I was only following orders'' . Yeah orders that made him commit treason. He made a pea deal and was let out for a time to help Trump, but somewhere along the line he violated the plea deal and was rearrested and was put before a firing squad and shot in the back of the head. Lying Big Mike was executed shortly after. We will find out next year when all this is released. Obama turned over on Big Mike to get a plea deal.
        Everyone who was arrested made a video confession, to get a plea deal, even if it was just death by lethal injection instead of firing squad or hanging. Lethal injection is a preferred way to die. You simply fall asleep and don't wake up. It is painless and peaceful. Big Mike got the lethal injection, I have to think he made a video confession.
        Everyone who has been executed has a double or clone. These are put in place by the white hats to make people think they are still around. That is so the people who are are not awake will not get angry or upset enough to start riots against the government for executing someone they loved. Like Madonna, or other celebrity. Or get so upset they have to go to the hospital. I know some people who would have to be put in the psych ward. They will be unable to accept that they have been lied to all their life. Believe it or not there are many democrats out there who still love obama & Michelle. Michelle has recently been on PBS reading books to children, Obama appeared with her in one session. These are videos that are done with CGI. They are fake. They both are dead.
        If you see a video of the person arrested and executed, it is done by CGI. If the person is making a personal appearance, it will be a double or a clone. The Pence that you have seen on tv with Trump is a clone. He was arrested long ago after the coup he was involved in with Paul Ryan
        If a person has died of corona virus, they will not get a double, because people know he died.
        Harvey Weinstein turned over on everyone in Hollywood. It is has been destroyed
        John McCain was executed and his daughter admitted it on the view. If you haven't seen it here is is.
        HRC died the day she spoke at the 9/11 event and collapsed at the SUV when she was told she was under arrest. They rushed her to her daughter house because it is a medical facility for her. A double came out and said she was ok. At this medical facility at Chelsea's place she was revived by very interesting technology using adrenochrome and babies blood. She was given a tribunal and she was executed. All video confessions was done in analog video.
        By the way GITMO is full. Some of the people who were arrested and on house arrest or at GITMO, are still in the tribunal negotiating a deal. Gates for instance will not be able to negotiate a deal because we already have the same evidence that he is using to get a deal. It won't work. He will be executed.
        There are many many who have been arrested who did not make this list because they just weren't famous enough. There have been thousands of arrests
        I have not provided dates of arrests or executions because I don't have that info. Most of these people were charged with crimes against humanity. Some were charged with treason. Some were charged with both
        I may have missed someone famous on the list because I had not been able to confirm it at the time the list was made. The list was made yesterday. I apologize for the messed up format. Patreon just does't want to cooperate with me on that.
        NOTE: THERE HAVE BEEN THOUSANDS OF ARRESTS AROUND THE WORLD. IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO LIST THEM ALL. HERE IS JUST A FEW. DON'T ASK ME ABOUT THIS PERSON OR THAT PERSON. I WILL UPDATE THE LIST WHEN I GET THE INTEL.

      1,000 People Voted Twice in Georgia's June Primaries: Secretary of State

        At least 1,000 people double-voted in the state's June 9 primary, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said today via press conference. Doing so intentionally is a felony in Georgia, punishable by up to 10 years in prison and fines up to $100,000. Most of these people mailed in absentee ballots and also showed up to vote in person, Raffensperger said. While double-voting didn't change the outcome of any contests, Raffensperger said double-voters know what they're doing. ''Those that make the choice to game the system are breaking the law. And as secretary of state, I will not tolerate it,'' he said. State and local prosecutors will bring charges against double-voters on a case-by-case basis, he added.

      Gender-reveal party culprit in massive California wildfire: officials - National | Globalnews.ca

        A firework at a gender-reveal party triggered a wildfire in southern California that's scorched more than 7,000 acres and forced hundreds of residents to flee their homes, local fire officials said.
        The fire was caused by a ''smoke-generating pyrotechnic device'' used at a party Saturday morning in El Dorado Ranch Park in Yucaipa, about 140 kilometres east of Los Angeles, the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (Cal Fire) said on Sunday.

        ''The fire spread from the park to the north on to Yucaipa Ridge that separates Mountain Home Village and Forest Falls from the City of Yucaipa,'' Cal Fire officials said in a press release.
        ''With the dry conditions and critical fire weather, it doesn't take much to start a wildfire. Those responsible for starting fires due to negligence or illegal activity can be held financially and criminally responsible,'' the statement said.

        The fire has since destroyed 7,050 acres and prompted several cities to issue evacuations orders. More than 500 people have been deployed to fight the fire, along with 60 fire engines and four helicopters, according to the Cal Fire website.
        As of Monday, only five per cent of the blaze has been contained, the website also stated.

JOSH EDELSON/AFP via Getty ImagesCalifornia has seen 900 wildfires since Aug. 15, many of them started by an intense series of thousands of lightning strikes. The blazes have burned more than 1.5 million acres and there have been eight deaths blamed on the fires and nearly 3,300 structures destroyed.

        This is not the first time a gender-reveal party has prompted a fire.
        In April 2017, a gender-reveal stunt caused a fire Green Valley, Ariz., which torched nearly 47,000 acres and caused more than $8 million in damage.

        Restored Republic via a GCR: Update as of Mon. 7 Sept. 2020 Compiled Mon. 7 Sept. 2020 12:01 am EDT by Judy Byington, MSW, LCSW, Therapist ret, Journalist, Author, “Twenty Two Faces: inside the extraordinary life of Jenny Hill and her twenty two multiple personalities.” Judy Note: It was reported by various sources that a 10-day bank blackout started on Fri. 4 Sept. and would go until at least Mon. 14 Sept.

By Tues.-Wed. 8, 9 Sept. all liquidity was expected to be down-lined to lower tier & level accounts including Tier 4b notification. According to Charlie Ward, to date the Australian military has rescued over 300,000 tortured children from Cabal tunnels beneath Melbourne. It was estimated that over a million children would be rescued by the time they cleared out the extensive network that circled Australia. On Sun. 6 Sept. there was a huge tunnel in the Philippines that was destroyed after clearing out the abused children. Australian VIP Child Sex Ring: https://youtu.be/ZyGTaIrvhgs On Sat. 5 Sept. 62 girls locked in a shipping container bound for Europe were rescued by Customs at the port in Delaware. A lot of sovereigns as well as those in the government were being arrested for trafficking, corruption and pedophilia in the US, Scandinavia including their Monarchs, the UK, Spain, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, Canada and the whole of Europe. The Queen and Royal family, Federal Reserve, Pope, and 13 Illuminati families were removed three months ago. Gates, Soros and Rothschilds would be soon. Since Epstein’s sidekick Maxwell was arrested, she has “sung like a canary” according to Charlie Ward. Tens of thousands of children have been rescued and hundreds arrested. The next two weeks were critical. A Military Intel video on the US tunnels: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7XFezTn2C6Y&feature=youtu.be A.

The blackout affected some banks, but not others, as all prepared to go onto the new Quantum Financial System. Mon. 14 Sept. was the final deadline that we would be able to do exchanges/ redemption at Redemption Centers at the Contract Rates. On Tues. 15 Sept. the General Public would begin exchanges at the new International Rates. Behind the scenes NESARA / GESARA debt relief measures and 15 other NESARA / GESARA measures including tests for Universal Basic Income (UBI) for many countries had been started. Also behind the scenes, John Brennan, the head of Deep State criminality under the Obama administration, was arrested on May 6, 2020 under indictments from the Durham criminal investigation. Durham's report and arrests regarding Obamagate Deep State criminals for pedophilia, human trafficking, money laundering, obstruction of justice and treason would become more evident over the coming days and weeks. It has been advised for us to brace for a Brucella bacteria outbreak in our foods that resulted in the same symptoms as Covid-19. Thoroughly cook your meat. Grow your own veggies and avoid frozen foods. WARNING : Be careful which charities supposedly dedicated to children that you fund in your humanitarian program. Children were known to be stolen to order by well known organizations in the US, UK, Asia and other nations. This child exploitation and sex trafficking network was said to include some state Protective Services, namely in California and Arizona. UNICEF, NATO, many children’s charities in Africa and those out of Hollywood were believed to not protect, but produce, steal and exploit children. The UN in New York and Century City in LA, both under control of the Council of Foreign Relations, were known breeding grounds for avowed Satanists who practiced Child Sacrifice. All appeared to be part of an international child kidnapping network that was more fully documented after thousands of abused and tortured children were found deceased, some rescued out of tunnels running beneath New York, Los Angeles, throughout the US and globe. Right now there was a huge rescue operation going on in Australia. Under disguise of the first Covid-19 “pandemic,” some tunnel children have been treated on the USNS Comfort Hospital Ship in the New York Harbor and the USNS Mercy Hospital Ship off the coast in California. https://beforeitsnews.com/politics/2020/08/trump-heads-rescue-of-thousands-of-tortured-children-from-underground-tunnels-3210569.html The Epstein 10,000 acre Zorro baby breeding ranch in New Mexico was only one of many facilities believed to produce child victims for human experiments, organ harvesting and sex trafficking. Although, the most prolific use of babies and children was for Adrenachrome harvesting – the supposed “Fountain of Youth” blood of a traumatized child that produced a “high” for global and political elite users. Google: Ambrosia blood for sale. B. Sun. 6 Sept. Christopher McDonald, Charlie Ward, The McFiles Network: https://youtu.be/0YXPIcp-ZOg 1. The military found over 300,000 tortured children in Melbourne Australia tunnels. A total of over a million children would be rescued from the Cabal tunnel system in Australia. 2. Trump has been heading the global military rescue effort, while the last four US Presidents have been involved in this child trafficking and covered it up. 3. The new QFS system has been set up for instant financial transfers. 4. When you go to vote on Nov. 3 you would be voting on the Quantum non-hackable system. The election cannot be fixed. You would log in with your identity and it would check whether or not you have voted in another place. 5. Trump was expected to win the presidential election by over 90%. In the last election Trump would have won by over 75% if the system wasn’t fixed toward Hillary Clinton. 6. The Chinese Elders have had bonds for many years that have been monetized. They have only monetized 100 Trillion of them for the reset. 7. There would be a secured website where you could sign in and get your appointment. 8. The Wuhan Laboratory in China (where the CV-19 virus was developed) was funded by Dr. Fauci and his colleagues. 9. A lot of sovereigns as well as those in the government were being arrested for trafficking, corruption and pedophilia in the US, Scandinavia including their Monarchs, the UK, Spain, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, Canada and the whole of Europe. 10. Trump was easing in NESARA very gently. 11. There will be a change from Maritime Law to Common Law. 12. Dunham, Barr and 5 others were cleaning out the judicial system. 13. The Queen and Royal family, Federal Reserve, Pope, and 13 Illuminati families were removed three months ago. Gates, Soros and Rothschilds would be soon. 14. Since Maxwell was arrested, tens of thousands of children have been rescued, hundreds arrested. She has sung like a canary. 15. The next two weeks were critical. Keep a low profile. You don’t want to be out on the streets – things were getting dangerous. Things were happening. Don’t worry. C. Sun. 6 Sept. “Sunday with Charlie Ward”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NiI-P732pW4 1. Many children were still being rescued from tunnels around the world. 2. Today Sun. 6 Sept. there was a huge tunnel in the Philippines that was destroyed. 3. Over 300,000 children were rescued from tunnels in Australia. 4. We will have another 1-2 weeks of this. 5. All Black Lives Matter donations go to the Joe Biden Campaign. 6. Covid-19 has been downgraded to a flue in every country in the world. 7. The hospital in Spain where Ward lives has a Covid-19 floor that was empty, but people were being told it was full. 8. Masks reduce the immune system by at least 20%. D. Sat. 5 Sept. 2020 Robert C. Madrid @GetInTheGame8 Breaking news: 62 girls just rescued by Customs at the port in Delaware. Literally locked in a shipping container bound for Europe! The POTUS making America safe for children! Think pizzsgate is fake? Notice how many children have been saved since Maxwell was arrested? E. Sun, 6 Sept, 2020 Rescuing Children, Australia, Charlie Ward, Jen, Laura, Liam by Kat: https://inteldinarchronicles.blogspot.com/2020/09/charlie-ward-with-jen-laura-and-liam.html?m=1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OgNuLqP2Sx8 1. Reuters reports that “Each year 800,000 children are reported missing in America.” 2. As Charlie Ward stated on 8-18-20, “Very simply, if you’re involved with pedophilia it comes with an automatic death sentence unless you cooperate with Trump. If you cooperate with Trump, you’ll get a minimum of a Life Sentence. You step out of line, it goes back to the Death Penalty. And he’s aware of every single one of them. And every single one of them will be arrested and they will be given the choice.” 3. 36:44: Charlie Ward: The Field Hospitals that were set-up in the guise for Covid-19 were actually centers to put the children into and had NOTHING to do with Covid-19… 37:24 …Australia you’re going to have to learn to be in lockdown because at this moment in time I don’t think you’ve got ANY IDEA how many children are currently being rescued in your country…We’re not talking about 100’s…we’re not talking about 1,000’s…we’re talking about tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of children who are being rescued in Australia right now…And this is the reason for the lockdown and the extreme measures you are under… 4. Kat Note: This is from my transcription of a Charlie Ward Roundtable with Charlie Freak, Laura Ward and Jen McCarty: "Charlie Ward Roundtable: Trust the Plan 8-15-20" by Kat - 8.16.20: 1:00:29 Charlie Freak: When the Americans first arrived they went to New Zealand… when the Marines first arrived … and they brought the Army Corps of Engineers with them… and they went to New Zealand first… cuz what they have to do is show they’re bringing equipment… they’re giving tips and different things to help people being underground…First thing you need to inner-stand with all of this is they’re called “Deep” Underground Military Bases… deep underground… and it has a profound effect upon especially the brain… so you begin to see things… false/positives false/negatives… that are there and you begin to dismiss things that are there… so it’s very confusing down in these tunnels… they have to make sure they’re not shooting at one another…You can lose your bearings underground so quickly… so when the Americans went there and they were training the Aussies to be able to do this for themselves… they found a vast tunnel network that went almost around Australia… and then [The Marines] moved on… so the Aussies are doing this…What happened is, they went into Melbourne… they found another layer beneath this enormous tunnel system in Australia… they started in Sydney… they described it to us… think arachnid… it’s a web… and it was below… this one goes all the way… WOW… all they do is dig… BTW that’s why the dependency on oil and gas… because it’s a cover for them constantly being underground…So this second tunnel system goes all the way around in a ring around Australia with a big central line running towards Ayers Rock… from one night 9 p.m. to 6 or 7 a.m. there were explosions every 2 or 3 seconds that entire time… that’s why there were police out there… you can’t have people looking on… this is serious stuff having to take down these tunnels… and they’re deep deep deep underground… and the explosions are like earthquakes… 37:55 Charlie Ward cont.: It’s time to hibernate right now [Australia]… keep out of the way until this is done… they’re going through a very difficult phase and they’re not telling you what’s happening and that’s the problem… they’re not telling you so you’re panicking…You don’t need to panic… you need to remain calm… and know that things are going on behind the scenes… there’s a reason why you’re in lockdown… they don’t need people out and about right now they need people away from the scenes… while they’re doing something that’s incredibly dangerous… and incredibly challenging… 37:55 Jen McCarty: Yeah… those Deep Underground Military Bases, OMG… it’s no jokes… apparently under Melbourne there’s like layers beyond layers and then they go into spaghettis… it’s a tunnel system unlike any in the world, apparently…38:45 Charlie Ward: That’s correct. 5. 40:03 Charlie Ward: Riccardo Bossi has a Party called AustraliaOne. And he’s determined to rid Australia of all these things going on right now… he just needs the support of people now against what’s evil and what’s corrupt… Then the important time comes when we get people in there we choose to hold them to account… https://australiaoneparty.com 6. Kat Note: None of us have any idea of the horrors the First Responders, Marines, Army Corps of Engineers, Global Militaries, Nurses, Doctors, videographers and all the rest of the specialist personnel discover when they go into these tunnels—the Deep Underground Military Bases. Many of the children have mercifully already died. Many cannot make the journey from deep underground to the surface even with the ventilators that pump oxygen into the tunnels. Many children were born in these tunnels and have never seen the Sun. Many children are in a state that defy imagination. Think of the B&W photographs from WWII of the prisoners in Nazi concentration camps as they were being liberated, and you’ll begin to get an idea of what the First Responders are seeing. 7. Below is from my 8-23-20 transcription of Mark Devlin, Charlie and Colleen Freak’s “Video: Who is Q? The Genius Q-Plan Explained” Part 2 recorded 5-17-20: "Video: Who is Q? The Genius Q-Plan Explained (Part 2)" by Kat - 8.22.20 2:34:46 Charlie: The child rescue operations have moved in earnest in Nevada… what was amazing is that everyone was thinking Las Vegas would be the horror show of horror shows… there was a horror show but it was Reno… underneath Reno they could not believe the tunnels underneath the ground... the DUMBs… 2:33:19 Colleen: The Military are going into these tunnels and rescuing THOUSANDS… and we’re talking THOUSANDS of children… 2:35:24 Charlie: This last one in Reno, and we’re only talking 7-days ago… [recorded 5-17-20] The cabal knows this is coming down… so the bulk of the children found in the tunnels under Reno were dead… not only dead folks, they were mangled… 2:35:40 They’ve had to go through… they’re trying to do DNA testing to get the pieces back in order… which piece belongs to which other torso… it’s horrific… F.

Covid-19 Hoax: The Wuhan Laboratory in China (where the CV-19 virus was developed) was funded by Dr. Fauci and his colleagues. Dr. Fauci was thought to be under arrest. Center of Disease Control Reported that only 6% of COVID deaths were correctly diagnosed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzsEMH--de4&feature=share&fbclid=IwAR0r5XLuL6hybiC7LcSIbD_VCRFYSMBQuefloC1mfdB0R4hntl7LqVx80b8 CDC stated: "9210 total COVID-only USA deaths, are 6% of 153,504 deaths falsely attributed to COVID" Sat. 5 Sept.

And the other 96% died of other diseases and co-morbidities they already had, but they were counted as COVID-19 deaths to generate a greater feeling of panic. https://beforeitsnews.com/survival/2020/09/cdc-fauci-confirm-covid-19-scamdemic-was-a-hoax-2759432.html The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has admitted on their website that the entire Corona virus Scamdemic was a huge lie and massive mainstream media hoax. Only 6% of COVID-19 deaths reported were actually from the virus. Dr. Anthony Fauci also had some interesting remarks about asymptomatic carriers too. Fauci said asymptomatic carriers aren’t the problem either, and that has never been the case EVER in any epidemic. (Notice how no one is calling this a pandemic anymore.)

Q showed the Satanic symbols in Democratic National Convention Logos: https://qmap.pub/ Major arrests on global and political elites were believed to have begun. J. GCR/RV NESARA/GESARA Schedule: On Fri. 30 Aug. many banks worldwide including all in the UK, closed and then opened up again on Tues. 1 Sept. – the same day the Quantum Financial System took over the old Cabal SWIFT System. South Africa and most other countries were in the process of nationalizing their Central Banks (owned by private individuals of the Rothchild Banking Empire since at least 1913). The Rothchild Central Banks would go bankrupt as leaders of various countries took over the banking system using a gold/asset-backed Quantum Financial System. That meant The People were claiming ownership of their own monies. On Mon. 31 Aug. in a meeting with RV Teams Trump approved the liquidity Shotgun Start and set a schedule for the RV rollout for between Tues. 1 Sept. and Tues. 8 Sept. Overnight Tues. to Wed. 1, 2 Sept. the new currency rates were locked in for Tier 4b exchanges / redemptions. On Tues. 1 Sept. gold/ asset-backed currency (including the US Note) Quantum Financial System became the sole financial online platform for all 209 countries, while behind the scenes all sixteen NESARA / GESARA measures began implementation and the new currency rates appeared on Bank Screens. US Treasury and Banker sources said that they would start our Tier 4b 800#s notification any time between Fri. afternoon 4 Sept. to Tues. 8 Sept. Some banks have announced that they would be in a blackout for ten banking days from Fri. 4 Sept. at 1 pm EDT until Mon. 21 Sept. On Tues-Wed. 8, 9 Sept. the new gold/asset-backed US Treasury Note (USTN) was expected to be publicly acknowledged and RV liquidity released to Tier 4b. Fri. 11 Sept. was the 19th Anniversary of 9-11. Mon. 14 Sept. was the deadline to exchange/redeem at Contract rates at licensed Redemption Centers through appointments obtained by calling 800#s received through a secured website. On Tues. 15 Sept. the General Public Tier 5 could begin exchanging at the new International Rates, plus the NESARA debt forgiveness programs would begin. Thurs. 1 Oct. was the beginning of the new fiscal year for the Federal Govt, plus was the beginning of the US Restored Republic and return to the original Constitution. On Thurs. 29 Oct. according to Q, there would be an event called October Surprise. Rumor was that surprise would be an announcement that the presidential election would be done through a new technology whereby voters could cast ballots over their phones and computers and thus rid us of the influence of a corrupt Mass Media and fixed mail-in votes that influenced election results. From Oct. 2020 to Oct. 2021 USD currency notes would be exchanged on a 1:1 to the new USN Treasury notes. The fiat Federal Reserve US Dollar would no longer be valid after Oct. 2021. K. Exchange of Foreign Currencies and Redemption of Zim Bonds: The below was a compilation of information received about exchanging/redeeming and written in my opinion only. Official instructions would come out with release of the 800#s and could easily differ. The Quantum Financial System: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HliBbcSe6QE Fleming Answers RV Questions: https://vimeo.com/450245475 The reset would occur in a Shotgun Start where everyone went at once. Safe Keeping Records (SKRs) were given to those who have already gone through background checks, turned in their currencies, had it authenticated, been given a certain rate for it and deposited it in an account. When the reset occurred they would have immediate access to their monies, while the rest of us would need to make an appointment and begin the process. The First Basket of Currencies to Revalue: Afghanistan Afghani (AFN), Kuwait I Dinar (KWD), US Dollar (USD), Russian Ruble (RUB), Chinese Renminbi, or Yuan (CNY), UK British Pound/Pound Sterling (GBP), Qatar I Rial (QAR), United Arab Emirates Dirham (AED), Indian Rupee (INR), Canadian Dollar (CAD), Mexican Peso (MXN), Venezuela Bolivar (VEB), Brazil Real (BRL), Saudi Arabia Riyal (SAR), Malaysian Ringgit (MYR), Iraqi Dinar (IQD) and the Vietnamese Dong (VND). Zimbabwe’s Zim Bond was backing the reset. 800 # Notification: Wells Fargo, Chase and HSBC would send out 527,000 + emails to currency and Zim holders containing a Secure Website link and coded 800 number to call for appointments and obtain redemption/exchange information. (You would not be exchanging at a bank, but at a Redemption Center). If you did not receive an email, then you could find the Secure Website on the websites as below. That Secured Website would have instructions on how to obtain your personalized coded 800# ID number for the redemption process. The Safe Link Website where you could obtain your own 800# would be on these links: Dinar Chronicles: http://www.dinarchronicles.com https://inteldinarchronicles.blogspot.com Dinar Recaps: https://www.dinarrecaps.com/our-blog MarkZ: https://www.twitch.tv/theoriginalmarkz Bruce: http://bigcalluniverse.com/callarchive/ TNT Tony: https://twitter.com/the_tnt_team Dinar Detectives: https://dinardetectives.com/ Click on the Safe Website and put in the zip code in which you live or in which you want to exchange / redeem. After you log into the Safe Link Website you will be asked some qualifying questions that tells them whom you are (like when you open a bank account). That would then generate an 800 number based on what location you put in. A unique code would be generated with the 800# for each currency holder and that code would be your unique ID code for your appointment. Those who used the general 800# from Intel sites would be given their unique code from the Call Center representatives. If you have Zim, tell them so they can direct you to the right Redemption Center. They want Zim redeemers in the first four days. The Redemption Centers would be closed after 30 days. Your First Appointment: IMPORTANT: When you went to your exchange you would be asked to set up your own new security ID and new account. This new security ID would immediately debit your old fiat accounts at your bank and credit your new QFS account with the Asset backed funds on a 1 to 1 basis. This was not exchange ratios. It was your old US federal fiat dollars going into new asset backed funds – the USN’s. 1. Have two forms of ID and utility bills. 2. Take all of your currencies and Zim with you to your appointment. The registration process locks you into your specific rate, so you need to exchange and redeem all of your currencies and Zim at the same time. They would count your currency in front of you. 3. You would see the International Rates before your appointment. The International and Contract Rates were very high. When the general public begins to exchange the Forex rates will be much less than the rates you are offered. 4. You would be presented the Default Rate on your currencies and Zim. 5. If you wanted more than the Default Rate you could ask for the higher Contract Rates, in which case you could choose from among a list of 15 categories of sanctioned projects that they would present you for higher rates, and/or you would present your project(s) outline to the Exchange Banker. 6. For higher rates you could choose one or more of the 15 project categories alongside, or instead of, your projects. 7. The currencies that had Contract Rates were the Iraqi Dinar and Vietnamese Dong. There were strings attached to the Contract Rates – your wish to do Humanitarian Projects. Anything over 10 million Dinar would get the International Rate. 8. Those currency or Zim holders in the US using 15 Projects as President Trump outlined below, had a possibility of getting higher rates: 1. Infrastructure/energy 2. International/American business 3. Security 4. Violence/Crime 5. American Indian/refugees 6. Housing 7. Technology/Space 8. Agricultural 9. Oceans and water 10. Health 11. Spiritual 12. Terrorist 13. Education 14. Finance 15. Veterans 9. At the end of your first appointment, if you were not satisfied with the rate offered, just politely tell them so and they would give you an SKR (safe keeping receipt) good for six months. 10. In that case you should immediately tell your assigned Wealth Manager to lead you through certain steps during the next 72 hours (the legal rescission period during which you could legally change any signed agreements from the first appointment). 11. Your SKR from your redemption / exchange would be good for six months, during which your assigned Wealth Manager would help you choose a trust company (Abbott Downing, Merrill Lynch, etc, or equivalent) and your WM and trust company team would be happy to negotiate for you for the higher rates that you request after the first appointment. 12. Every currency holder would sign agreements at the first appointment, like the rate agreement, the fees agreement, the NDA, etc.). 13. If you choose the Default Rates your appt would last 15-30 minutes. If you asked for the Contract Rates your appointment would be extended to 90 minutes. 14. A Governance Team was in place to support the nine million people involved in humanitarian work. In order to monitor all financial transactions related to humanitarian projects there was a tracking system based on SSN#s, or SSN#s tied to EIN#s. 15. The Non Disclosure Agreement essentially keeps you from talking about your exchange – your rate and how you got it. If you break your NDA your funds would be frozen. 16. You should have a separate Trust for every currency or Zim you have. They would set your monies up in a Skeleton Trust at your appointment. You have 90 days to change over to your Common Law Trust. 17. If you double dip by spending your redemption/exchange monies on buying more currency or Zim all of your monies could be frozen. Judy Note: I have grown to realize that life was about educating yourself on how to become a better person, and then being that person you were meant to be. Greatness would never be found in possessions, power, position, or prestige. It would be discovered in goodness, humility, service and character. As we embarked on this opportunity to do good in the world, remember that you were a Child of God who was sent to this earth to perform a special mission and only you through consultation with your Father in Heaven who sent you here, could decide what that great mission would be.

Occult Calendar of Demonic Holidays: Be aware of Satanic activities in your neighborhood and help Save Mind Controlled children and teens being forced to participate in rape, torture and murder of other children. The next major Satanic Holiday was on Labor Day Mon. Sept. 7 “Marriage to the Beast Satan, Blood, Sexual, Sacrifice, Dismemberment of infant to age 21 female” as per an Occult Calendar put together by licensed therapists using childhood accounts of their Satanic Ritually Abused (SRA) clients. Report Satanic activities to your local law enforcement.

The Satan follower perpetrators appeared to be organized from the US Inc’s CIA, Queen Elizabeth’s, Vatican’s Ninth Circle Child Sacrifice Cult on down to the Clintons, Hollywood, Pizzagate and local teenage covens. They were funded by this same Cabal that ran our global monetary system – the very organization that was in the process of being brought down by activation of the Global Currency Reset. It’s no wonder that President Trump has stated, “These people are sick.” N. It’s All About the Children It’s not about the money. It’s about the children – the thousands of malnourished and traumatized children. The first official act President Trump made the morning before he was sworn into office, was to pay a visit to CIA Headquarters and declare a war on an international Child Sex Trafficking Ring run by global elites. Let us fast and pray for these little ones who were now being rescued from Cabal underground tunnels across the globe, and tortured and killed by Satanic Covens right next door. Let us also pray for those Military Troops worldwide who were risking their own lives to save them. The ancient doctrine of Fasting and Prayer was explained here at the 10:30:32 mark: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Mb9gU6DmKs If you wished to join the effort in saving children from international sex trafficking, contact Tim Ballard at Operation Underground Railroad: https://ourrescue.org/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FT4tmI8YxCU&feature=emb_rel_end U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) investigated violations of criminal law ranging from child exploitation to transnational gangs inside and outside the US, including rape, torture and murder of children by Satan followers. You could use this form to report suspected criminal activity: https://www.ice.gov/webform/hsi-tip-form Judy Note: I do not now, nor have I ever, received monies for writing my Updates and articles. The compensation has been in having outlets to help Save the Children by exposing truths about the very secretive Satanic Ritual Abuse, Pedophilia and Child Sacrifice that was rampant in our international society. The above was a summary of information from the Internet. It would be up to the reader to do their own research and decide whether or not it was valid. A huge Thank You to those dedicated and brave Intel providers who wished to remain unknown; to humble Wildfire Lady who was adept at exposing the truth; to Martha who worked around the clock to discern what was real in the fake news; to Brad who did great research and Ken who uncovered almost unlimited Intel on pedophilia to help us Save the Children. Divide They Try, Fail They Will; WWG1WGA to Support POTUS, Follow Q &Trust Plan Let us Thank Q that the reset has finally come to be. I wish you well in your humanitarian efforts and look forward to seeing you on the other side where together, we will make life better for all. Patience is a Virtue. Having Virtue is a sign of a good moral being. Good moral beings have the power to overcome evil and change the world.

      Start-up founded by ex-Goldman trader becomes first fintech to complete takeover of a national bank

        A tiny start-up led by a former Goldman Sachs trader has become the first fintech firm to complete the acquisition of a nationally-regulated U.S. bank, CNBC has learned.
        Jiko, a 23-person company co-founded by Stephane Lintner, has closed a deal to purchase Mid Central National Bank, a 63-year old retail bank based in Minnesota, according to people with knowledge of the transaction. The start-up secured approval for the move from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, these people said.
        The move by Jiko, which bills itself as a new kind of bank, gives it broad access to the highly-regulated U.S. market. Fintech firms have to choose one of three ways to break into this market: acquire a banking institution, apply to become a chartered bank, or partner with an existing lender.
        Most of the new breed of online only-banks like Chime and Current chose to team up with existing FDIC-backed institutions, as that is the fastest way to get started. Last month, Varo Money became the first consumer fintech firm to earn a banking charter from the government through an application.
        But Jiko, a company that has flown under the radar since its creation in 2016, is the first of the recent wave of fintechs to complete the takeover of a regulated bank, allowing it to offer Americans a broad array of financial services. Lending Club, one of the biggest U.S. providers of personal loans, said it was buying Radius Bancorp in February, but that deal will close in 2021, CNBC reported at the time.
        "The move by Jiko represents an important milestone in the maturity and evolution of fintech companies seeking to expand the reach of their products and services," Acting Comptroller of the Currency Brian Brooks said in a statement. "It demonstrates the value and attractiveness of banks and in particular the federal banking system."
        Regulatory blessingThat U.S. regulators blessed the Jiko transaction is significant mostly because of how fundamentally different it is: It's a consumer bank that doesn't revolve around holding deposits.
        Instead, customer money lands in an FDIC-backed account momentarily before being swept into Treasury Bills, which are liquidated when a person uses a debit card or withdraws cash from ATMs. Rather than ceding the yield on those investments to the typical bank, which takes deposits and buys Treasuries or lends out the money, the Jiko customer keeps it.
        Lintner, 40, is a computational mathematics PhD who spent nearly a decade on the trading floor of Goldman Sachs, helping the bank automate the buying and selling of stocks and derivatives. There, he saw during the 2008 financial crisis how institutions around the world made disastrous bets that threatened the safety of customer deposits.
        "Once I saw what happens to deposits, I just thought there had to be another way to give people that money experience without entangling it with the risky lenders," Lintner said. "I don't want a society that collapses once in a while."
        He left the New York-based bank in 2016 with the kernel of an idea: How could you cut out the middlemen in banking?
        His answer was to give banking customers direct access to Treasuries, which are backed by the U.S. government and considered one of the least risky investments available. Jiko means "self" in Japanese.
        The Jiko account, which has been in beta mode for the past two years, functions like a combination of a checking and savings account. The bank's app is being revamped with more features, including a cash-back debit card and tokenized bank account numbers, and will be released before year-end.
        "Now that you've gotten money that's transparently stored, you know what you're holding, you're not funding the North Dakota pipeline or something like that," Lintner said. "You're getting what that money is earning, the Treasury Bill rates, which is the first thing that banks do when they get your money, they buy T-Bills."
        Since money at Jiko is swept into a brokerage account invested in T-Bills, it's covered for up to $500,000 by the Securities Investor Protection Corporation, or SIPC, and not the FDIC.
        Not risk-freeBut it remains to be seen if American banking customers want to assume the risk of fluctuations in the value of investments, even as safe as T-Bills, in exchange for the chance of greater yield.
        The Jiko account generated a 3.3% annualized return last year, far outstripping the rate that most big banks pay, Lintner said. But interest rates have fallen since then as the Federal Reserve slashed rates in response to the coronavirus pandemic.
        Meanwhile, the brick and mortar bank the start-up is acquiring, formerly known as Mid-Central Federal Savings Bank, will continue to operate its three branches in Minnesota as a normal bank.
        Since Jiko passes on the yield from investments and most of the swipe fees on an upcoming debit card to customers, Lintner said he envisions charging a "Netflix-like" subscription fee.
        "As a first place to put money in, it's an excellent place to be in," Lintner said of Treasuries. "We built a scalable platform, we can go from zero to 300 million Americans, and do a lot of stuff with absolute stability. Now we can deliver an awesome experience and a number of other features."

      Chicago aldermen adopt ban on sale of flavored vaping products - Chicago Tribune

        Flavored vaping products favored by teens will be banned on shelves at Chicago stores, but flavored tobacco such as menthol cigarettes can still be sold under rules the City Council passed Wednesday.
        Southwest Side Ald. Matt O'Shea, 19th, had hoped to ban the sale of all flavored nicotine products, including flavored cigarettes and cigars.
        But he endorsed the version that passed, saying it's an important step to protect kids.
        ''I'm asking for your support because we all know vaping is unsafe for children, and we all know that vaping products are marketed to children, with flavors like apple, berry, bubble gum, cotton candy, gummy bear, Fruit Loops, nilla vapes, strawberry shortcake,'' O'Shea said. ''So please, don't hide behind 'vaping is a sensation.' They're targeting our children and it will cost lives.''
        And Mayor Lori Lightfoot added her backing, saying people who smoke are more likely to suffer severe cases of the coronavirus.
        Lightfoot noted her own personal distaste for smoking. The mayor said her daughter has seen people vaping in the bathroom and said her own father was a two-packs-a-day smoker who died ''a slow, painful, miserable death because of smoking.''
        The council adopted the new rules by a 46-4 vote.
        After the meeting, Lightfoot said supporters of a tougher ban compromised to get something passed, but vowed to keep pushing to enact stricter regulations on sales.
        But not all council members were on board Wednesday.
        Downtown Ald. Brendan Reilly, 42nd, pointed out sales of vaping products and cigarettes are already prohibited in Chicago to people younger than 21 years old. ''I would like to see better enforcement of the existing laws,'' Reilly said.
        And Northwest Side Ald. Nick Sposato, 38th, said now isn't the right time to further handicap small retailers struggling because of the pandemic. ''We're just killing businesses in this city,'' Sposato said.
        In addition to allowing flavored cigarettes and cigars, flavored chewing tobacco also would continue to be allowed for sale under the new regulations.
        The new rules on nicotine products are the latest attempt by the council and mayor's office in recent years to regulate them.
        As mayor, Rahm Emanuel repeatedly increased taxes on tobacco and e-cigarettes, and raised the legal smoking age in Chicago from 18 to 21 in what he framed as a fight against Big Tobacco's push to hook kids on its products.
        Emanuel also passed an ordinance requiring stores that sell tobacco and e-cigarettes to post signs explaining the dangers of smoking and including phone numbers smokers can call to get help quitting.
        And he muscled through the City Council in 2013 an ordinance that outlawed the sale of flavored tobacco within 500 feet of any school in Chicago. But in 2016, aldermen worried about struggling stores in their wards convinced him to mostly roll back those restrictions.
        The city still prohibits sales of menthol cigarettes and other flavored tobacco near high schools.
        State lawmakers considered legislation that would ban flavored tobacco products throughout Illinois during last year's fall veto session, but the issue stalled and didn't resurface during this spring's pandemic-shortened legislative session.
        State Sen. Julie Morrison, a Lake Forest Democrat who sponsored one of the proposals, said in a statement Wednesday that she plans to revive the legislation next spring.
        Also on Wednesday, The City Council approved a package aimed at protecting affordable housing in the South Side neighborhood around the location of the proposed Obama Presidential Center.
        The ordinance sets out ways to help lower-income residents keep their homes in Woodlawn near the site of the proposed center by helping tenants organize themselves to try to purchase multiunit buildings, setting aside funds for residents to repair their homes and requiring developers of city-owned land to include certain numbers of affordable units.
        The council also passed an ordinance that will allow women to bare more flesh in Chicago establishments that sell liquor, in order to settle a federal lawsuit by a transgender woman.
        The ordinance the City Council passed removes reference to gender from the liquor license statutes governing how much flesh can be shown by performers in various Chicago establishments, so women in those establishments will no longer be required to affix ''pasties'' or use other latex coverings on their breasts while performing in such places.

        Bea Sullivan-Knoff filed the federal lawsuit in 2016 because she said it was discriminatory that she couldn't appear topless without ''pasties'' covering her nipples as part of her performance art pieces.
        Also passing Wednesday was an ordinance outlawing single-night rentals in Chicago through Airbnb and other online platforms, an effort backed by Lightfoot to crack down on ''party houses'' as part of a series of stricter rules governing how the vacation rental businesses can operate in the city.
        City officials also would have an easier time cracking down on problem renters under the ordinance that passed the council.

        WE Charity says it is closing its Canadian operations, blaming COVID-19 and the political fallout from the Liberal government's plan to have it run a multimillion-dollar student-volunteer program for leaving it in financial ruin.
        Craig and Marc Kielburger, who are also planning to step down from the organization they co-founded, were set to release an open letter explaining the move.
        ''COVID-19 disrupted every aspect of our work,'' the brothers wrote in the letter Wednesday. ''The fallout from the Canada Student Service Grant has placed us as a charity in the middle of political battles and misinformation that we are ill-equipped to fight.

        Few could have foreseen the degree to which the government's spring decision to have WE administer the now-defunct student grant program would hurt both the Liberals and the charity.
        The deal would have seen WE paid up to $43.5 million to run the program. The federal government had budgeted $912 million for the program, which was designed to cover up to $5,000 in education costs for students who volunteered during the COVID-19 pandemic. The sole-sourced contract with WE pegged the cost at $543 million and stipulated the organization would not make money on the deal.

Both have apologized for not recusing themselves from the decision to award WE the contract.

        Asked about the WE Charity announcement on Wednesday, a spokesperson from the Officer of the Ethics Commissioner, said while it is an ''interesting fact'' it is ''not determinative of outcome.''
        ''Commissioner Dion remains focused on the examinations underway,'' the email reads.
        WE backed out of the deal in early July, citing the political controversy. Many of its corporate sponsors eventually cut ties with the organization at a time when it was already struggling to make ends meet because of the pandemic-related shutdown.

        WE says it plans to lay off 115 Canadian staff and sell all its property in Canada in the coming months, including its landmark $15-million Global Learning Centre in downtown Toronto, which opened in 2017.
        It follows news last month that WE would be laying off dozens of employees in Canada and the United Kingdom. At the time, WE said it would assess its real estate holdings but planned to keep its headquarters in Toronto.
        The net profits will be put in an endowment fund that will be overseen by a new board of governors and used to complete several projects in communities in Latin America, Asia and Africa that were started by WE but remain unfinished.
        The fund will also cover the operating costs of several large-scale infrastructure projects, such as a hospital and college in Kenya and an agricultural centre in Ecuador. However, no new projects or programs will be launched.
        All future WE Day events are also being cancelled while the organization says it will no longer have staff to work with teachers, though existing resources will be digitized and available online. WE says it was active in 7,000 schools across Canada.

        ''Without decisive action, WE Charity's ongoing costs to operate in Canada would exceed revenue and consume savings that are essential to establish the endowment fund,'' wrote the Kielburgers, who plan to leave after the transition is finished.

        ''We calculate that this action preserves as many humanitarian and educational programs as possible, for as long as possible. Putting children first means prioritizing them above the charity. This is a heartbreaking decision.''
        Asked who will oversee the sale of the charity's property, WE executive director Dalal Al-Waheidi said in a statement that a special committee of the board of directors comprised of individuals with legal, financial and property experience will be responsible.
        ''One hundred per cent of all proceeds will be directed to the charity and/or towards the formation of the future charitable endowment,'' she added. ''For the sake of absolute clarity, no individual(s) will benefit in any way from the transactions.''

        The Liberals insist the charity was recommended by the non-partisan public service, but thousands of documents released by the government last month suggested bureaucrats may have been pushed in that direction by their political masters.
        Much of the focus has been around the ties that Trudeau and his family have to WE. The prime minister has been a featured speaker at six WE Day rallies while his wife, mother and brother have all received money from the organization.

        Several parliamentary committees launched investigations into the deal over the summer, but they were halted because of prorogation. Opposition parties have promised to resume those studies when Parliament returns.
        In testimony to the finance committee in July, the Kielburgers said they agreed to run the grant program to help Canadian students, adding that if they'd known how things would have played out, they wouldn't have answered the government's phone call.
        Asked by Global News about the new development, the Prime Minister's office said ''we have no comment.''
        In a tweet Wednesday afternoon, Conservative Leader Erin O'Toole called on the charity to release documents pertaining to the now-defunct contract to the Finance Committee.

        ''WE must immediately release the documents that the Finance Committee requested on their involvement in Justin Trudeau's $900 million scandal.''
        In a statement Wednesday evening, NDP ethics critic Charlie Angus said the move ''shows just how much WE needed a bailout from their Liberal friends,'' adding that the charity has been in an ''economic freefall for months.''
        ''Why didn't the government see this before giving them a contract worth millions,'' he said.
        But, he said the announcement ''doesn't make the Liberals' scandal go away.''
        ''Minister Chagger still misled Parliament and Canadians,'' Angus said. ''Justin Trudeau still voted for it despite his family connections.''

      VIDEO-WATCH: 'The View' Co-Host Sunny Hostin Calls Black Conservatives 'Props' | The Daily Wire

        ''The View'' co-host Sunny Hostin referred to black conservatives as ''people props'' that Republicans trot out to garner votes from black Americans.
        During a discussion about a poll out of Florida showing Biden losing ground among Hispanic voters in that state, Hostin said that she wasn't surprised by the results, and also not surprised that black Americans are not voting for Trump, despite his promises.
        ''I actually wasn't surprised to hear it because Cubans in Florida typically do vote Republican,'' began Hostin. ''That wasn't a surprise to me. It wasn't a surprise to me that black voters are overwhelmingly the backbone of the Democratic Party'--83% in favor of Biden.''
        ''You know, you hear all of this coming from the Trump campaign about how black people have nothing to lose and they are gonna overwhelmingly vote for Trump, and you had all the black people props all over the RNC talking about all the stuff they've done for the black community,'' she continued. ''You heard Sarah Sanders yesterday talking about all the things that have been done for the black community by the Trump administration. They're not voting for Trump. So, the poll wasn't really that surprising to me because Latinos have been very supportive, and have voted Republican for quite some time.''

        Sunny Hostin is far from the first Democrat operative to dehumanize black conservatives so nonchalantly. Shortly after the RNC, Politico also referred to convention speaker Alice Johnson as someone who was ''propped up'' by the Trump campaign to tout criminal justice reform.
        ''Alice Johnson, a key player in Trump's criminal justice reform push, delivered her RNC address tonight. She's been propped up as one of the most prominent beneficiaries of the terms of the First Step Act. Kim Kardashian played a role in her prison release,'' Politico tweeted.

        Joy Reid of MSNBC even went as far as to suggest that the black RNC speakers were ''trotted out to make white Americans feel comfortable about white nationalism,'' while Elie Mystal at the far-left publication The Nation seemed to compare them to Judas Iscariot'--the apostle who betrayed Jesus Christ.
        ''What anger I have for this particular crop of Black tokens comes from the fact that so many of them volunteered,'' he wrote. ''These were not schoolboys trying to get by at prep school or single moms trying to hang onto their jobs. These were grown-ass adults, predominantly men, who could have sat this grift out but raised their hands to confirm white bias and quote scripture while doing it. We know Trump doesn't like to pay his debts, so I hope they got their 30 pieces of silver up front.''
        Shortly after night one of the RNC, which featured the likes of NFL great Herschel Walker and GOP Congressional candidate Kim Klacik, racial slurs such as ''Uncle Tom'' began trending on Twitter.
        ''Whether through sheer coincidence '-- or not '-- 'Uncle Tom' was one of the top trending topics on Twitter Tuesday morning following the opening night of the Republican National Convention (RNC) that featured several Black men making the case for Donald Trump to be re-elected,'' reported News One. ''More than 6,000 'Uncle Tom' tweets were posted following speeches from Democratic Georgia State Rep. Vernon Jones, former professional football star Herschel Walker and South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott.''

      VIDEO-Biden botches military coronavirus death count, campaign says he accidentally cited Michigan number | Fox News

        Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden misspoke during a campaign stop in Michigan, incorrectly saying that over 6,000 U.S. military members have died from the novel coronavirus.
        Speaking in Warren, Mich., Biden cited the number of confirmed cases and deaths from COVID-19 in Michigan as being the numbers for the military, saying the armed forces had seen 118,984 cases and 6,114 deaths.
        Shortly after the event, Biden's campaign quickly clarified that Biden had mixed up the numbers for Michigan with those from military. As of Wednesday, only seven members of the military had died from COVID-19.
        "Vice President Biden has the utmost respect for the men and women of the armed services and believes it's the sacred duty of our country to properly equip them, look after their families when they're deployed, and care for them when they return,'' Biden's Deputy Rapid Response Director Michael Gwin said in a statement to Fox News.
        BIDEN RETAINS EDGE OVER TRUMP IN BATTLEGROUND PENNSYLVANIA
        Gwin added: ''To honor their service, the Vice President carries with him each day a card detailing the number of Americans who have given their lives for our country in Iraq and Afghanistan, and frequently cites that number to recognize their sacrifice."
        Biden has taken criticism before for confusing statistics when it comes to the coronavirus pandemic.
        In June, Biden incorrectly said 120 million people had died from the contagion in the U.S.
        ''People don't have a job, people don't know where to go, they don't know what to do,'' Biden said at the time. ''Now we have over 120 million dead from COVID.''
        As of Wednesday, the U.S. has recorded just over 190,000 deaths from the virus -- the highest total in the world.
        While Biden appeared to immediately to catch himself after his gaffe in June -- the pool video of Biden's comments cuts off after he made the remark '' President Trump's campaign was quick to jump on the former vice president's comment.
        ''Joe Biden is very confused,'' the campaign tweeted out. ''He's not playing with a full deck, folks. #BarelyThereBiden.''

        Biden's verbal slip-ups have plagued him throughout his 2020 presidential bid, with the Trump campaign using them as fodder to argue that the presumptive Democratic nominee is unfit for the Oval Office, as well as to draw attention away from Trump's own mistakes.
        The president himself has been hammered by pundits and Democrats for false or misleading claims he's made regarding the coronavirus pandemic '' from his now infamous March 6 declaration that "anybody that wants a test can get a test" to claiming that the Obama administration had left him with bad or old tests for COVID-19 even though there could not have been a test until Trump's presidency.
        Despite Biden's slip-ups on the stump, he still holds a national advantage in the polls over Trump with the Real Clear Politics average showing the former vice president holding close to a seven point lead over the current White House occupant with the general election less than two months away.

      VIDEO-Fauci tells Fox he 'didn't get any sense' that Trump 'was distorting anything' about coronavirus | Fox News

        White House coronavirus task force member Dr. Anthony Fauci told "The Daily Briefing" Wednesday that he does not believe President Trump distorted facts about the coronavirus pandemic.
        Earlier Wednesday, The Washington Post published audio from an interview of President Trump conducted by veteran journalist Bob Woodward in March, during which Trump admitted he "wanted to always play it [the pandemic] down. I still like playing it down, because I don't want to create a panic."
        On "The Daily Briefing," host John Roberts asked Fauci if he thought Trump had played down the threat of the virus.
        WHITE HOUSE DEFENDS TRUMP AFTER WOODWARD BOOK CLAIMS HE SAID CORONAVIRUS 'DEADLY,' DESPITE PUBLICLY DONWPLAYING IT
        "No, I didn't," Fauci responded. "I didn't get any sense that he was distorting anything. I mean in my discussions with him, they were always straightforward about the concerns that we had. We related that to him. And when he would go out, I'd hear him discussing the same sort of things. He would often say, 'We just got through with a briefing with the group from the task force,' and would talk about it. So it may have happened, but I have not seen that kind of distortion."
        Shortly after audio of the Trump/Woodward interview was published, White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany defended Trump, arguing that he acted like "good leaders" do by staying "calm" in the midst of a crisis. She added that the president "has never lied to the American public on COVID."

        Roberts also asked Fauci, head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, whether Trump broke with his advisers in trying to downplay the virus.
        "You were there through that whole thing," Roberts said. "Was that the playbook or was that the president just going his own direction?"
        "I don't think so, John," Fauci responded. "I don't recall anything different than in our discussions that we had with the president that he said things quite similar publicly."
        The March interview, along with 18 other on-the-record conversations between Woodward and Trump, form the basis of Woodward's book "Rage," due out later this month.
        WOODWARD BOOK REVEALS TRUMP CALLED COVID-19 'DEADLY' EARLY ON
        "I didn't really go over any of the text since it just came out," Fauci told Roberts. "But you know, in my discussions and the discussions of other task force members with the president, we're talking about the reality of what was going on.
        "And then when we would get up in front of the press conferences, which were very, very common after our discussions with the president, he really didn't say anything different than we discussed when we were with him," he went on. "I may not be tuned in to the right thing that they're talking about. But, I didn't see any discrepancies between what he told us and what we told him, and what he came out publicly and said."
        According to the Post, Woodward reports in his book that Fauci has described Trump as being "on a separate channel" and offering "rudderless" leadership. Woodward also has Fauci saying Trump's "attention span is like a minus number" and "his sole purpose is to get reelected."

        Fauci told Roberts Wednesday that he didn't recall saying those things.
        "If you notice, it was [reported that] others have said [I said] that. So, you know, you should ask others. I don't recall that at all," he said. "So I mean ... according to what I saw in the newspapers, it says 'and others have said that.' So you know, I don't really want to get involved in the kind of stuff that is very distracting to the kind of things that I'm trying to do and that we're all trying to do with this outbreak."

        When is the best time to get a flu shot? Can you get COVID-19 and the flu at the same time? Two doctors from UNC Health hold a discussion to answer the most important questions.
        get here. All right. You should be able to record now. A big thank you so much. I thought I remembered that you needed to do that before. So that didn't see your tech guys on. Got it? Yes, just me by myself. Sundby. We'll give it just a couple minutes to make let folks get on filled with the new zoom rules. Do you have to admit people one at a time? Alright. No. Yeah. When I first got on there, I had to do it for spectrum because they were already on. But then you can take it off. You could just base could take it off for everybody. Yeah, but that's a new spectrum rule. As of like September 1st that you either have to use a password which is at ridiculous, or you have to use a waiting room and then allow people in. Um but we haven't had I mean, I know you've heard all the horror stories, but we haven't had any any issues with people being behaving badly. Everybody's been good with us. No surprise guests, no surprise celebrities jumping in. Not yet. Probably as soon as I say that we'll have. We'll have it happen. But good. John, I'll be honest. You in secret? Great. Once you were a 10 over, just wait one more minute and then we'll be going. What makes you Judas already? All right. I think we can get going now. Um, well, you have a little bit of talking in the beginning here. That will take us upset. Let me get this and make sure that I'm recording to hang on a second Screens. Doing some weird. Well, Michael's boat. Sorry. Well, Michael's need to be able to record Hang on a sec, see? One second. Okay, there you go. Will, you should be able to record on. Did anybody that needs the record option And it's not a able to please just let me know, and I will make that setting change for you. So thank you all for joining us is always we know you guys have a lot to cover. So thank you so much for taking time out because we think this is really interesting. Ah, and relevant. Especially going into the, um, the flu season that we're about to get into as we've already seen. Ah, some colder temperatures. So today we're gonna feature to physicians from U. N. C Health who will discuss the upcoming flu season. What to expect around that during a global pandemic? Um, and just everything that we think is going to go into it and all the things, that kind of crossover. So a sui do that just to give you a reminder on the logistics. We are recording the meeting and then assumes it's over. We will upload both an audio and a separate video file to a Dropbox account, and we'll singer those links so you can get those if you need them. Um, and we'll get those within 30 minutes of the meeting ending on. Those will be available to you and those air always, as always, a completely unedited, so you can use them as if you shot them. You're recorded them yourself. So at this point, I will turn this over to my co host, Alan Wolfe. As this is our 25th media briefing since April. Allen. Well, time flies. Thanks. Feel good morning, everybody. Thanks for joining us. Dr. Amir bars and is a family medicine physician at UNC Health. He currently oversees testing for covered 19 at the Respiratory Diagnostic Center in Chapel Hill. In addition to taking care of patients both in his practice and urgent cares. Dr Cheryl Jackson is chief division of pediatric emergency medicine and a professor of pediatrics at the U. N C Scoble Medicine. She is medical director of the pediatric emergency department, even see Medical Center in Chapel Hill, as well as medical director of the new Children's urgent care in Raleigh. Thank you both for taking time out of your day. Teoh help raise some awareness and, um, uh, provide some education about flu season. Dr. Jackson, do you want to kick it off with a few opening remarks? Sure. Welcome, everybody. Um, this is the time of year that I briefed my team and us. I usually start off with. Winter is coming. That's not just in expression for game of Thrones. It's something that we pay particular attention to in both paediatrics paediatric, emergency medicine, urgent, urgent care and emergency. Ah, medicine. Winter heralds the beginning of respiratory viral season, and with that influenza this year, it's going to be complicated by, um, Pope it and so this is the beginning of a lot of preparedness. We always hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. Um, and we're doing that in our clinics in the urgent Cares in the emergency department in the health care system to make sure that healthcare workers and patients in particular, um are safest. Could be. So ah, I will kick it over toe a mirror. Uh, let him do his introductory remarks. But I'm sure there will be a lot of questions about what we're doing to prepare for flu and this season. Thank you, Dr Jackson. It's it's always a pleasure to be able to do this and I think very well said, and very well spoken about. What were we thinking about From health care providers. This is normally a time as a primary care physician and someone who works in out patient settings, urgent care settings, inpatient settings, taking care of people who are hospitalized, what we do see an increasing number of cases of viral illnesses that could cause respiratory illness. So here we just want to make sure that everyone has the information that you need to be able to better educate the public at large, but also to be able to provide really being full inside. Hopefully and the things that we could do in my mind is a primary care physician, which is really important. This, I think, the best treatment as prevention and so hopefully giving people tips and tricks and how to be able to prevent this con committing issue that we may have with both flu season running over with what we're dealing in our current pandemic state with a Corona virus. So thanks for giving us the opportunity and looking forward to talking to everyone happy to open up to media questions. Just take yourself off mute and step right up. Hi. Good morning. This is this is Richard straddling at the News and Observer. Thanks for doing this. Can you talk about what? How Corona virus and the flu are similar and how they are different? Absolutely. Cheryl, if it's okay, I'll start. You feel free to jump in. So I think that's a very wonderful question to ask, because one that we're hearing a lot about on the ground. If you think about in principle what we think of in terms of symptoms fever, body aches, fatigue, cough, shortness of breath, runny nose headache, you can see that in both flu and the Corona virus. So I think one of the things that we're working on in terms of talking through as a medical community use what can we do to try to narrow in on some potential medical concerns that may lead us one way or the other? It's a little bit difficult to be able to do that. So I think that's one of the reasons why we're really trying to educate people on the importance of doing the things that protect you from both viruses. And so the measures that we have taken in place over the past few months to keep the people of North Carolina say, washing your hands, keeping distance, wearing a mask when you can't do those two other things that this should in theory protect you against both of these diseases. So we really are trying to make sure that we're promoting the health of our communities through that in terms of the symptoms like we mentioned here, a lot of these may be running together, so that's why it's important to touch your position when you are feeling sick to see. Could it be one could be the other one of the options on the table. Yeah, and I would just jump in that. The other thing that we can do is we do have a vaccine to prevent influenza influence A and B, and so to help mitigate the effects of potentially getting to viruses. Um, what you can do is get a flu vaccine and what we're doing here at the medical center. And I'm sure a number of primary care offices a swell assignar urgent care. It will be the ramp up our ability to offer the flu vaccine to the community. And it is super super important, um, to prevent at least one of those diseases. There's a lot of talk in the media about hopefully getting a Corona virus vaccine, but we know that yearly, Um, there are millions of people around the world and in the United States who get influenza, and it has a high mortality and morbidity morbidity associated with it. We don't know what this time what the impact of having Corona virus and possibly the flu at the same time will be, but it's really important to prevent what you can. Hi there. My name is Judith on what? CBS 17 here in Raleigh. You know, there are some companies that I have announced that they're going to be doing some combined flew in coded 19 testing. Can you get it? Cries is going to talk about your your thoughts about that, and we benefits to that. Yeah, go ahead. Yes. Um, I mean, it's obviously wonderful to be able to do one test on our multiple tests on one swab. There are companies that have announced that they will be doing that. Um, I we will also be doing, um uh, similarly, we will have tests available at the medical center that will be able to test for both influenza and Corona virus or influenza. Uh, well, influenza Corona virus and RSPB, which is a respiratory virus that impacts small Children in particular. And, um, also a test that will test for a whole a panel of respiratory pathogens as well as Corona virus. And that could be done on one swab. So it is important we try to minimize discomfort to patients when we can. It's also more efficient eso that you're not kind of coming back. Well, digital do this or did you think about that, Um So I think it's a good thing that these tests are gonna be out there and hopefully all of them had been appropriately validated as well. Yeah, just to jump on with the same kind of sentiment there is that when we first started looking at this at the very early parts of the pandemic, what we noticed is that what we were doing here at UNC Health is that we were running many of the tests that Dr Jackson just mentioned. So what we were testing for initially was flu and Horace B and then also running your coronavirus tested necessary. The we were running that on two separate tests. But we could use one specimen you can imagine as we incorporate these in tow. One test. What that does is it helps the supply chain quite a bit. So the ability to kind of streamline the impacts that we may have on the downstream effects we wanna have the ability to diagnose sufficiently open to everyone who needs it. And the more we can do to streamline that and to make it easier to get a diagnosis, the more likely we are to be able to save the necessary supplies that we have to get us through not only this week season, but then potentially afterwards if we're still dealing with Foreman Corona virus. Excited to see if their combination tests that are coming on board will do that for our regents, our supply chain, but really a big proponent of trying to minimize any harm to patients and discomfort to pick patients as much as possible. And one swab is better than two. So we're really lucky to be able to do it off one. And it is a stupid again. Oops, sorry not going to do is just another question. Is this When it comes to a hospital capacity, people are hospitalized every year of her flu, and now we have Kobe. Is there any worry or concern, um, about hospital capacities or getting an influx of people when flu season really starts to ramp up? Yeah, we can kind of talk about it from two different angles, and I'll let Dr Jackson kind of talk about what she sees in the emergency room. Don't normally during this time what we see on the outpatient and inpatient side of things that I work on is this is the time of year where we typically see an increase in volume in the hospital due to respiratory illness. So one of the reasons why this is so important for us to talk about what we can do to prevent illness like getting an immunization for the flu is because as you as you very well stated in your question, there is a limited set of resource is that you have. And so for every bed that a patient who has influence a sits in, that's one less bad that could be used for someone with an appendectomy that needs to happen, or someone with Corona virus. And you said, get care. So we are very much looking at this from a holistic point of view. We want to try to streamline the the care for patients as best as possible. We also want to provide the best resource is for them across the U. N. C health atmosphere, and that means what we can do is try to prevent cases of influenza if we can, so that we don't run into this situation where we are running into a capacity issue. We had a question from Rose Ho band. I think her last her first question X. I think you just answered. But could you The two of you talk a little bit more about how people wearing mask and practicing physical distancing for Cove? It might affect the transmission of flu as well as covered. Do we expect to see lower numbers? Maybe that actually, that is the hope. You know, one thing about this time of year is we make a lot of predictions, and then we see how it plays out. Certainly, um, the universal precautions wearing a mask wearing gloves were in gowns when we're in the hospital. Wearing I wear are designed to prevent transmission of infection in the community. Washing your hands, social distancing and wearing masks will do the same. And it absolutely will prevent or slow down the transmission of influenza as well as a corona virus and other viruses. And in fact, at the beginning of the Corona virus pandemic, um, in our at the beginning of the year, we were in the midst of ah, flu season. And, um uh and I don't know what happened. Uh, can you guys still you're fine? We can see your number than my screen just went away. But we were in the middle of flu season and flu season. Um ah, quickly rent down as wants to stay at home order went into effect. So we're very hopeful that influenza season on respiratory viral season will be mitigated if people continue to social distance where the mass wash their hands. Ah, however, if they don't, it's possible that it could be worse. So we shall see any questions from media. I've got a text question, but if you want to just step right up, go ahead. I see Richard. Well, this is Ah, this is along those lines. So if if I am wearing a mask and social distancing and washing my hands, do I still need to get a flu shot? Yeah, that's a great question. And, um, yes. And there's multiple reasons why. So what we know about giving yourself the best chance to succeed from the health care standpoint, if we were to look across the population in North Carolina, one of the things that you can do to do the best that you can to prevent diseases to take the cure that you can and thinking about what are the most available methods for prevention that are out there. And the influenza vaccine is a great preventative measure to help people from getting the flu. So, yes, while these other measures are really important, I think of them as other things that can occur downstream to protect us from disease. Start with the prevention method and try to go down the route of saying immunization is important that after immunization, you're taking kind of into your hands in your own control the ability to take care of yourself by giving yourself the best chance to succeed. And then you layer on that these other elements of wearing a mask, staying distant, washing your hands and you further increase your chances of saying safer and healthier. The other thing that I think is really important about this is when we look at people. So let's say if you were to get the flu vaccine and you ended up being that unlucky person that also got influence on top of that, your chances of having a severe illness is much less than those who did not receive the vaccine. So even in the worst case scenario, you're still helping yourself out from taking control of your health and being able to protect yourself as best as possible. So absolutely go and get your back soon's Find the best place for yourself to do that. All of our primary care sites at the U. N C health clinics or working on trying to make sure that that's done in the safest and most efficient way possible. Pharmacies were doing that to our distancing measures that we have in place make it very, very safe for people to get that scenes. So we are very much highly encouraging the continued vaccination for influenza. I would also I would also emphasize I'm not a real big sports person. But little thing I do know is that people trained long and hard to win the game. So I mean, the goal is to win the respiratory viral season. That means it comes and it goes and you did not get sex. So just like playing in a sport, whether individual or team, you're going to do everything you can to prepare to win. So to win the respiratory viral season, you need to protect yourself and that would include getting um a new influenza vaccine. You need Teoh use appropriate hygiene measures. And that would include wearing a mass, staying away from people who were sick. When you do get sick, keeping yourself indoors and not don't send your kids to school in daycare with a suspected fever. Give him Tylenol, get to work and come home, and then take him to the doctor. You've just exposed about 20 other kids. Um, so do everything you can to win the respiratory viral season. Not just one thing. It's the same as you would do if you were preparing for the big game. You're not just going to practice passing well, dribbling. You're gonna practice it all and you're gonna do it all so that you can ultimately win the respiratory viral season. We had a question of from Rose Ho Ban. Um, and Rose was asking, What are the supplies of PPE like now at you and singing in the larger medical community? Yeah, we We have been really lucky. Thank you to the state of North Carolina and the citizens for getting us to this point. I feel like our governor has done an amazing job of putting in the orders that you did whenever he did toe help us try to prepare for this. This was really hard to see in February and March when we had such supply shortages, but all the measures that were taken into effect right now keeping people out of the hospitals have allowed us to really ramp up our ability to get caught up in the supply chain. And when I say supply chain, that doesn't only mean ppd, but it also means things like testing supplies, the ability to have safe places for people to be seen, to get their chronic care etcetera. So that, I think, has been one of the best parts about this is we really are seeing the benefits of what we did early in the year. Play out now with getting our supply chains back up. It's helped the manufacturing companies across the country and across the world really catch up to the at that initial surge in demand that we have. So currently we're in a really good position to be able to have the appropriate PPE necessary to take care of patients for both, keeping the clinicians and the staff that are taking counted on safe, but also the patients and their family members safe as well. Um, this is Judith again at CBS 17. Are you guys doing anything different this year in your preparation for the flu Because of the pandemic? One different thing that we're doing we don't usually do in the emergency department is we're actually offering. We will be giving out flu vaccines when appropriate. In the emergency department, we usually refer people back to their primary care givers. But, um, this time we've made a decision that we think it is important enough to get people vaccinated that, um and looking at our numbers there enough people that show up at the emergency department unvaccinated that it makes sense. Teoh get people and capture this group when we can. So that is one thing that we're doing different. Anything else you can think of? A mere Yeah. I think a lot of what we've done in the outpatient settings to kind of prepare for covet are preparing us to do better and more efficient flu vaccinations and or care for people with respiratory illnesses. So, for example, one of the things that I think has been really helpful that we're gonna reap the benefits of this. We've really worked a lot across the entire health care system here at UNC Toe Limit, congregation of patients and things like waiting rooms and making sure that scheduled appointments are appropriately distance in space. So what we're doing is providing, I think, probably the safest environment that we've had in years, that I've worked here that give us the ability to provide the care for patients one but also to for that person who wants to come in and get their immunization for that for influenza, you could do it in a really safe manner. So I actually think that a lot of this playing into that preparation has made us better. What we've done in terms of working through the Kobe pandemic is really preparing us to do better on that influenza side of the house. Well, other things that were exploring as a health care system is just how can we dio faster and safer immunizations on larger scale? So there's discussions on how you can do that in different models, whether that be outdoor models or drive three models just thinking through what those potentials could be. We're trying to do the best that we can to meet patients and in the way that they want to receive care. And the planning I discussed has been going on for a while. So not only has the health care system been thinking since the beginning of the year about PP supplies, it's also what testing supplies would we need. What vaccine? So, uh, there have been estimates about what we would need, and these have been ordered, and we anticipate that will have, Ah, an appropriate number of testing supplies, vaccines, and then a distribution model to get it out to the public as well as our health care workers, which we also want to be safe. Can you? I don't know if Spectrum was going to say something. Um, this is Judith again. Is there one thing that people should be looking out for, like, one symptom symptom that you can know? Um, you have Covic versus of blues or any one thing that stands out. I know a lot of the symptoms are the same. Yeah, I wish I could tell you thinking. Cheryl and I think that conversations about this world were like, I wish there was that one thing that we could say, What we do know that I think it's also helpful to think of. We do have anti infective treatment options for the flu. So while we can't necessarily say this is definitely flu, where this is definitely co bit, what we do want to be able to tell patients is what can we do to prevent one versus the other? Which is why we're talking so much about immunizations. But then, too, if you do have influenza and we catch it early enough, we do have treatment options available to help shorten the duration of symptoms and all of that place and well to continuing to limit spread, but also getting people the feeling better, quicker and hopefully limiting severe disease. I wish I had that magic, you know, this is the one symptom that I would say this is 100% flu or this is 100% Kobe. But we're learning as a health care system how to how to kind of evaluate people for both as well when they know. It also emphasizes that if someone does get sick the importance of seeking care early. So, um, the treatment for influenza work much better when they're given early again. That is not to say that you should not try to prevent it by getting influenza vaccine. However, if you do, our viewer loved one, finds himself ill. Then you do need to seek care early. One of the things that has happened that I think it's been awesome in a mirror, and I were talking about the very beginning before all of you came on. The call was the ramping up of video visits. So a lot of primary care offices have video visit our Children's urgent care. We do video visits up until midnight with AH, pediatric specialists for parents that are concerned who can also help. Ah, triage. Whether or not a patient which means decides, sort and decide whether a patient needs to go to the emergency department that evening, can schedule a primary care visit or their OK to stay home. So, um, I would utilize those resources with video visits with primary care doctors with urging cares, um, to help make that decision to seek care early, and sometimes that can help mitigate the in blocks in the emergency department so we can save the emergency department for the sickest patients. And again, if you need to see the doctor and you really need to see the doctor, go see the doctor. But there are a variety of ways you can have access to your physician these days, including the video visits, including urging cares. So I would utilize those across the system as well. Well, Oh, Goodwill. Good. Well, Michael's a W unc. Just out of curiosity, this is sort of a broader question. But do you think that some of these new things that you're adopting during the pandemic prevention protocols, distribution and protection will be lasting changes in the medical community? Or, um, you know, will is this really something that is just gonna lasted a pandemic? Can I take this in here? So my great hair is not just for show. I've been around for a long time. Um, and, uh, we're also discussing with a nurse who is senior as well. I started medicine at the beginning of the HIV. Um, uh, it's coming into play in in the United States. And, um, it was at that time that the term universal precautions came in Teoh play a couple of years into the AIDS epidemic. Ah, prior to that, when I first started medical school, believe it or not, you didn't wear gloves drawing blood or starting ivy. You didn't necessarily put on gowns. And you know, certainly you use mass for surgery. Um, now, ah, 30 years later, we routinely will put on gloves Teoh, start IVs and, um and, uh, where were gowns? We now have what's called universal Pandemic precautions where we were mask and we were I wear to prevent ourselves and others from transmitting infections. And I would be shocked if we went backwards. It is actually really good infection control policy. We've always washed our hands, but there are times on, and I think it's been emphasized now two health care workers the importance of using those precautions that have actually always been in place. But I think we adhere to them more rigorously than usual. The safety practices, um, that we put in waiting rooms of of, uh uh, uh outpatient clinics, um, are just super important. And they've always been in place. To a certain extent, we've been much more rigorous about it during Kobe. It and, um I don't see any reason to go backwards tonight. Doubt that we will. You can add on a mural. No, I think that you said it exactly. Correct. I mean, I'm sitting in my office right now and I'm looking to the corner of my desk and I have five masks on the corner of my desk. If you would have told me that I would have five masks sitting in the corner of my desk where I also have a bunch of cough mass at home, multiple in my car that I use whenever I'm out and about to buy Can't distance. I wouldn't have never thought about this. And so these are all things that I think we're getting used to as a medical community because our primary job and what we do is we need to keep ourselves safe so we can do the best that we can to take care of people who need us most. And so where kind of turning in that tight. And I agree. I think it would be really hard to say Come February, all this goes away where I think we're stuck in this rut in terms of trying to make sure that We're doing everything that we can to be safe as possible for people. And this opportunity in front of us is let's do what we can to wear the protective equipment that keeps us safe. So I think we will be in this for quite some time. I really appreciate it. Cheryl's explaining what she had been through because, um, it's a valuable lesson in terms of time being experience, and I do agree that we're gonna have that same kind of notion over time. So we're gonna go ahead and our good Doctor Jackson, please. I was gonna say, If you think about it every flu season, I'm sure American attested this that I see patients said, Well, I don't know how I got sick and I would always say, You know, do you go to the grocery store? Do you go other places? So even though your usual people are usually pretty careful, you know this whole idea of not coughing into your hand and then shaking someone else's hand or coughing into your hand and then handling all the fruit in the grocery store, um is really important to preventing the spread of infection, so be having people do basic, um, protection methods like stay home when they're sick, wear a mask if they're sick. Um uh, call for cities into their elbow instead of their hand, dispose of their tissues, clean off their shopping carts. All of those things are good to help mitigate the spread of infection throughout the community community, whether it's the common cold influenza Corona virus or ah, host of other viruses that are around and will probably evolve over time. So we're out of time. But I wanted to just give one more opportunity. If there's any media that had a question and would not didn't get the opportunity to go ask us. So was there any final media question? If not, I think we will conclude today's briefing. Thank you both very much for being with us was very helpful, I think. I think our audience found that interesting. Also, to let the media know, as usual, we will upload a recording of both video and the audio two separate files, Um, as quick as we can get that out, which should be in the next 30 minutes or so, and there is always our unedited so you can use those at your discretion. And we thank you for joining us again today. And this concludes our media briefing from U. N C. Health. Thank you so much.

        She's been tested so many times that Sarah-Laurence C´t(C) says the nurses at the testing centre have started rooting for her.
        ''They recognize me,'' C´t(C) says. ''They say 'let's hope it's negative this time!'''
        The 20-year-old nursing student from Mirabel, Que., has tested positive for COVID-19 eight times over four months, despite not having any symptoms of the virus since mid-May. She's been forced to do her classes online, and has stopped doing shifts at a Montreal seniors' residence where she works as an orderly.

        C´t(C) believes she contracted the virus while working at the Maimonides Geriatric Centre in the first weeks of the pandemic.
        ''The resident who I think I got it from passed away,'' C´t(C) says. ''It's very sad. It's very hard.''

But as a health care worker, C´t(C) was told she needed two negative tests before she could go back to the seniors' residence. She hasn't been able to get one.

        Infections disease expert Dr. Sumon Chakrabarti, an epidemiologist with Trillium Health Partners in Mississauga, says what's showing up in C´t(C)'s tests are likely dead and inactive viral particles.
        ''There are still little bits of genetic material being detected,'' he says. ''But I suspect if you take her swabs and look at how much of the virus is actually there, it would be below the level that we consider infectious.''

        Despite repeated positive tests, public health officials did determine C´t(C) wasn't contagious and gave C´t(C) permission to return to work in mid-June. She also started the semester at her nursing school.
        But after another positive test last week, doctors told her she'd had the virus so long that they considered it a ''re-infection.''
        When she told the nursing school, she was asked to stay home for 14 days. She says the department also sent home 50 other students because she'd been at the school.
        ''They asked them to quarantine for two weeks, or come back with a negative test '-- even after I explained my whole story from the first day,'' she says.
        Sarah-Laurence C´t(C) with reporter Michael Armstrong / Barry Donnelly/Global News.C´t(C)'s also off work again, uncertain when she'll be allowed back.

        Dr. Chakrabarti says cases like C´t(C)'s are rare, but not unheard of. In fact, the longer the pandemic goes on, the more science is learning about the virus and how to test for it.
        Chakrabarti says after six to eight weeks, most patients have a low viral load, meaning they're no longer contagious. He says that's one of the reasons health departments no longer ask for negative tests before allowing patients to return to work.
        ''The yes/no or positive/negative test isn't as helpful anymore,'' Chakrabarti says. ''We're trying to look at methods where we can find out how positive it is.''
        C´t(C) misses work, and is nervous about how her studies will be affected, but she knows things could be worse. When she was working as an orderly, she saw COVID-19 rip through the seniors' residence.
        As for the repeated tests, C´t(C) says people have asked her why she keeps going back. She says it's not just about her.
        ''It's about the safety of everyone I work with, the residents I care for, and the students I go to school with,'' she says. ''I don't want to risk anyone getting sick because of me.''

      VIDEO-BLM leaders practice 'witchcraft' and summon dead spirits, black activist claims - The Christian Post

        Follow | Tuesday, September 01, 2020 Demonstrators participate in the Get Your Knee Off Our Necks Commitment March in Washington D.C. on Aug. 28. 2020. | The Christian Post A black conservative Christian podcast host has claimed that the Black Lives Matter movement engages in ''witchcraft'' and called on Christians who have allied themselves with the organization to rethink their decision.
        Abraham Hamilton III, who hosts ''The Hamilton Corner'' on the socially conservative American Family Radio, devoted the Aug. 19 episode of his program to highlighting ''The BLM Connection to Witchcraft.''
        Throughout the podcast, Hamilton argued that Black Lives Matter was not merely another social justice advocacy organization. Instead, he argues that it is a religious movement.
        Hamilton, who serves as the American Family Association's public policy analyst, began the podcast by criticizing the Black Lives Matter movement as a ''Marxist, anti-Christ, anti-family, [and] anti-man organization.''''What we are witnessing is a copy and paste of the Bolshevik Revolution from Russia just applied into an American context,'' he contended.
        After reminding his listeners that Patrisse Cullors, one of the co-founders of the Black Lives Matter movement, described herself as a ''trained Marxist,'' Hamilton read aloud a quote from Cullors explaining her point of view on spirituality.
        ''I'm calling for spirituality to be deeply radical," Cullors said. ''We're not just having a social justice movement, this is a spiritual movement.''
        Hamilton played audio from a ''Zoom-type conversation'' between Cullors and Dr. Melina Abdullah, a professor of African studies at California State University Los Angeles who founded the group's L.A. chapter.
        The conversation took place in June, shortly after the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis.

        ''We've become very intimate with the spirits that we call on regularly,'' Abdullah said in the clip. ''Each of them seems to have a different presence and personality. You know, I laugh a lot with Wakiesha '... I didn't meet her in her body, right? I met her through this work.''
        The ''Wakiesha'' mentioned by Abdullah refers to Wakiesha Wilson, an African-American woman who was found dead in a Los Angeles jail back in 2016.
        Hamilton argues that the conversation proved that Black Lives Matter leaders were ''summoning the spirits of the dead [and] using the power of the spirits of the dead in order to give them the ability to do what they're calling the so-called justice work.''
        Hamilton stated that those leaders seeking to summon the spirits of the dead are adhering to ''the Yoruba religion of Ifa.''
        ''They are summoning dead spirits,'' he said. ''One of the touchstones of this religious practice is ancestral worship. Guess what the Bible calls that folks? Witchcraft.''
        In the recording, Cullors went on to talk about how they were ''resurrecting the spirits so they can work through us to get the work that we need to get done.''
        ''I started to feel personally connected and responsible and accountable to them, both from a deeply political place but also from a deeply spiritual place,'' Cullors said. ''In my tradition, you offer things that your loved one who passed away would want, whether it's like honey or tobacco, things like that.''
        ''It's so important, not just for us, to be in direct relationship to our people who have passed, but also for them to know we've remembered them,'' she added. ''I believe so many of them work through us.''
        Abdullah said that the first thing people do when they hear of murder is ''pray'' and ''pour libation we built with the community where the person's life was stolen.''
        ''And it took almost a year for me to realize that this movement is much more than a racial and social justice movement,'' Abdullah said. ''At its core, it's a spiritual movement because we're literally standing on spilled blood.''
        The women proceeded to discuss the meaning behind one of the most common chants associated with the Black Lives Matter movement: ''Say her name.''
        ''When we say the names, right, so we speak their names, we say her name, say their names, we do that all the time, that you kind of invoke that spirit. And then those spirits actually become present with you,'' Abdullah added.
        Hamilton contended that Abdullah and others ''really believe that the names of the folks that they are saying have become ancestral gods.''
        Cullors said that ''spirituality is at the center of Black Lives Matter.''
        ''I think that's not just for us. I feel like so many leaders and so many organizers are deeply engaged in '... a pretty important spiritual practice,'' she said. ''I don't think '... I could do this work without that. I don't think I could do it as long as I've done it and as consistently. It feels like if I didn't do that, it would be antithetical to this work.''
        Hamilton mentioned the chants as an example of ''spiritual wickedness'' that the Apostle Paul warned about in Ephesians 6:12.
        In condemning BLM's spiritual practices, Hamilton cited Deuteronomy 18. The Old Testament chapter describes those who practice witchcraft or call upon the dead as ''detestable to the Lord.''
        Before opening up the phone lines to his listeners, Hamilton delivered a message to Christians and churches who have embraced the Black Lives Matter movement.
        ''How can you reconcile that with what the word of God says?'' he asked. ''We have got to evaluate everything through the word of God.''

        Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is preparing to censor chatter on his social media platform doubting the legitimacy of November's elections.

        ''In fact, that might be important to make sure that this is a legitimate and fair election,'' he added.

        Big League Politics has reported on the next phase of the coup attempt that the deep state has in the works to oust Trump from office:
        A Soros-backed ''election integrity'' group is setting the stage for a revolution against President Donald Trump after November's election.
        The Transition Integrity Project, an organization featuring a bipartisan group of Trump haters, is claiming that President Donald Trump will cause violence if he disputes the upcoming election results. They are running simulations that they claim indicate that Trump and his supporters will create mayhem.
        ''All of our scenarios ended in both street-level violence and political impasse,'' said Rosa Brooks, a professor of law and policy at Georgetown University, who set up the TIP. ''The law is essentially '... it's almost helpless against a president who's willing to ignore it,'' she added.
        Revolver noted that Brooks is an operative of George Soros with ties to his Open Society Institute going back decades. She served as Special Counsel to the President at the Open Society Institute in New York from 2006-07'...
        Brooks hopes that policymakers act on the findings of her study, adding that ''state governors, attorneys general, legislative leaders and secretaries of state need to think through these issues now, and understand the electoral system and relevant laws now, and not wait until Election Day to think about everything that could go wrong.''
        Revolver believes that this TIP group may be the organization tasked with fomenting a color revolution to get President Trump out of office regardless of the results of November's election. They compared Brooks' recent Washington Post op/ed with The Democracy Playbook, a guide to color revolutions published by the globalist Brookings Institution. They concluded that TIP is about creating a self-fulfilling prophecy that keeps Trump from a second presidential term regardless of what the American people decide.
        The role of Big Tech in this election steal conspiracy is going to be key. From Zuckerberg's comments, it seems like he is embracing his role as technocratic henchman for the New World Order.

        Civil rights activist Rev Al Sharpton says defunding the New York Police Department is something a 'latte Liberal' in the Hamptons might support but that proper policing on the ground is necessary.
        Sharpton made the comments during an appearance on MSNBC's Morning Joe on Tuesday amid a wave of rising crime in New York City and a gun violence filled Labor Day weekend.
        He pushed back at recent calls to defund the NYPD and other police departments across the country, saying that policing needed to be re-imagined instead.
        'To take all policing off is something I think a latte liberal may go for as they sit around the Hamptons discussing this as some academic problem,' he said.

        'People living on the ground need proper policing.
        'Yes, we need more resources in different areas like mental health but we do not need our grandmothers (to be) prey to those that are being the users of products of the big gun manufacturers in this country.'
        Sharpton also addressed the rising crime rates in his native NYC.
        The NYPD has reported that shootings were up 166 percent in August compared to the same time last year.
        'We've always heard about the tale of two cities. On the side of the city that I come from, which is blacker and poorer, we've seen more in terms of gun usage,' Sharpton said.
        'I got a lot of attention when I did the eulogy for George Floyd's funeral, but I also, a month later, preached (at) a one-year-old kid's funeral in Brooklyn who was killed by a stray bullet,' Sharpton said.
        'Six people were shot over Labor Day weekend at a festival in Brooklyn, so I would say statistically we're not much higher than where we were, but on the ground it is certainly feeling more violent, feeling more unsafe in unsafe communities.'

        New York City saw a concerning spike in shootings over Labor Day Weekend, with at least 10 people shot as the surge in gun violence continues.
        In one instance, a 62-year-old Brooklyn resident was shot dead on Monday morning while walking his dogs near his home.
        Just two hours before that, a six-year-old boy and his mother were among three others who were shot during a festival in the same borough.
        Meanwhile, surveillance footage from the NYPD showed a shootout on August 25 inside the lobby of Marlboro Houses in the Gravesend neighborhood.
        A group of unidentified men are seen standing inside an apartment building lobby and appear to be looking towards something outside. One man, who brandishes a gun in his right hand, walks further into the lobby before raising the firearm towards the door.
        It isn't clear who opened fire first but the group of men suddenly scrambles out of the way. A different man runs into the lobby and appears to fire a round out of the open door.
        The boy is seen lying on the pavement in a pool of his own blood as a woman, identified as his mother, rushes over and tries to pick him up

      VIDEO-The mysterious destruction of evidence related to Steele's dossier, State Department contacts | Just The News

        Earlier this year, the infamous dossier author Christopher Steele revealed he had destroyed nearly all the records detailing his dirt-digging on Donald Trump and Russia.
        "They no longer exist," Steele told a British court.
        Now comes word that Steele's primary and longtime contact inside the Obama State Department, Jonathan Winer, also destroyed records of the former British MI6 agent's contacts inside that federal agency, including many of the 100-plus unsolicited intelligence reports Steele provided the Obama administration.
        "I destroyed them, and I basically destroyed all the correspondence I had with him," Winer is quoted as saying in a little noticed passage of the Senate Intelligence Committee's final report on the Russia collusion scandal.
        Winer apparently destroyed the records at Steele's request, the report said.
        "After Steele's memos were published in the press in January 2017, Steele asked Winer to make note of having them, then either destroy all the earlier reports Steele had sent the Department of State or return them to Steele, out of concern that someone would be able to reconstruct his source network," the committee's report released last month stated.
        The consequence of the document destruction appears to have been real. "Department of State was able to produce for the Committee, from their archives, many Steele memos from 2015 and some from 2016, but most of his reports from 2014 are missing," the committee noted.
        The missing documents create an evidentiary hole in the story of Steele's extensive contact at the Obama State Department, where he delivered through Winer a total of 120 reports on Russia and Ukraine policy matters that reached as high as Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland and Secretary of State John Kerry.
        "Starting in 2013, Steele offered Winer, who was then at Department of State, reports he had written for clients on Russian-Ukrainian political leadership, economic issues, and political security," the Senate report reveals. "Winer showed them to Nuland, who asked Winer to share them with her Principal Deputy, Paul Jones.
        "Winer recounted Nuland's reaction: 'She said, these are good reports; they're valuable; keep them coming.' Winer further said that State officials thought the reports were 'shockingly real-time.' Nuland, who said that she never met Steele, told the Committee, 'I found his stuff to be 70, 75 percent accurate, credible ... when he was off base, it generally looked to me, felt to me, like he had been paying human sources who were exaggerating or getting extra money by pumping up what they knew or extrapolating.'"
        The content of the reports and extent of Steele's access to the department are taking on new significance now that declassified evidence shows Steele worked with several Russian oligarchs and was the recipient of Russian Intelligence Services disinformation in his anti-Trump dossier. In addition, State knew that Steele was producing the intelligence reports on behalf of foreign clients, whom he did not identify, which raises concerns among experts of injecting foreign influence into the State Department.
        "Taken in its totality, it looks like Steele was a foreign influence operation, whether witting or unwitting," said Kevin Brock, the former assistant director of intelligence at the FBI. "He was injecting information from Russia, Ukraine, or whoever was feeding him or paying him."
        Brock said Winer's admitted destruction of some of the Steele documents was disturbing. "In what universe does a source of the U.S. government get to request all of his records be destroyed? It doesn't make any sense," he said.
        Winer's significance in the investigation into how a false Trump-Russia collusion story got embedded at the highest levels of the U.S. government continues to grow, especially with revelations he provided Steele information in September 2016 from two of Hillary Clinton's close associates '-- Sidney Blumenthal and Cody Shearer '-- that then was given to the FBI, creating essentially an addendum to the anti-Trump research in the dossier.
        "Two of the additional memos the FBI provided the Committee did not originate with Steele: FBI got them from Steele, Steele got them from Jonathan Winer, who got them from Sydney [sic] Blumenthal, who got them from Cody Shearer, a freelance journalist," the Senate report explained.
        Winer also played a major role in distributing Steele's dossier to the highest levels of the State Department long before the November 2016 election, the report reveals.
        "Steele first shared his information, in summary form, with Jonathan Winer (then-Special Envoy to Libya), who shared the summary with Victoria Nuland (then-Assistant Secretary for European Affairs), Jonathan Finer (then-Chief of Staff to the Secretary and Director of Policy Planning), and Anne Patterson (then-Assistant Secretary for Near Eastern Affairs). Finer likely briefed then-Secretary of State John Kerry at some point on the Steele allegations," the report said. "Steele also met with Winer and then-Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Kathleen Kavalec in September and October to discuss his findings."
        Kerry could not recall the briefing. Telling the committee "he remembered hearing rumors, but he did not recall being briefed or otherwise learning about the existence of the dossier prior to its publication, a discrepancy the Committee was unable to resolve," the report said.
        Destroyed documents. Faulty memories. Foreign influence. The State Department continues to grow as a more important part of the investigation into the Russia investigators.

        MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) '-- A boat parade in support of President Donald Trump Saturday on the St. Croix River left more than one homeowner contending with property damage.
        Keith Smith lives on the river in River Falls, Wisconsin.
        ''The river was flooded with boats,'' Smith said. ''Big boats, small boats, all kinds of boats.''

        The powerful display of a few hundred boats had some people watching from their docks very impressed, like Trump supporter Ron Claxton.
        ''It was awesome. It couldn't have been a better scene to have all those supporters of Trump out there,'' Claxton said.
        Smith didn't have time to ogle the spectacle.
        ''The waves were probably four to five footers pounding my boat into the dock,'' Smith said.
        The whip holding his docked boat in place snapped, and he says he fought violently for an hour and a half to keep it from sinking.
        ''Boaters all know they're responsible for their waves, but nobody cared,'' Smith said. ''They just kept going and going and hooting and hollering. Luckily I didn't slip and go off the side of the dock.''

        One of Keith's neighbors wasn't as fortunate, and did lose his boat.
        ''There was so much wake from the boats that it actually lifted my dock up three or four feet, and the waves came underneath my floating dock,'' he said. ''The waves overwhelmed the boat.''
        (credit: CBS)
        The neighbor says he's never seen so much water traffic in his backyard. Both property owners say they have no problem with Trump supporters showing out for their candidate. Their issue is with the disregard for boating laws and etiquette.
        ''It's not anything political,'' Smith said. ''Boaters know the laws and the rules, and I don't understand why they wouldn't follow them and help their fellow boater.''
        Claxton sympathized with the men. His dock was luckily spared.
        ''There were a lot of large, large boats, and just with the sheer volume, I can understand that,'' Claxton said.
        The homeowner who's boat sank says he has insurance, and he plans to attend a boat show as soon as he can to look for a replacement.

      VIDEO-Undercover sting operation in St. George leads to 12 arrests on suspicion of child trafficking, sexual exploitation

        ST. GEORGE, Utah (ABC4 News) '-- It's the work that local law enforcement agencies believe is one of the most important things they can do: protecting children, the most vulnerable, in their communities. Authorities in southwestern Utah have arrested a dozen suspects on suspicion of child trafficking and sexual exploitation charges as a result of an aggressive sting operation set in motion at the beginning of the week.
        Child Trafficking in UtahThe investigation began late Monday night when police were alerted by multiple individuals to the Craiglist ad, which implied those interested in spending time with children should respond via email. While Chief Blair Barfuss and Sgt. Ron Bridge with Dixie State University police lead the investigation, agents with the St. George Police Department and the FBI and Homeland Security also assisted.
        ''Here at Dixie State University, we don't have the manpower or resources to thoroughly address this kind of investigation, so we had multiple task force members arrive from around the state,'' Barfuss said. ''While investigating the ad, we also did proactive work on social media apps and other avenues to look into whether there's a significant problem in the St. George area for individuals wanting to meet up with children for sex.''
        What's Being Done to Stop Child Trafficking in Utah?Barfuss said the individual posting the ad was not one of the 12 people arrested because the statements were vague and unable to lead to a criminal charge. There were approximately 10 calls into police dispatch expressing concern about the ad, but more than 135 people responded to the email expressing interest in the services described, according to Barfuss.
        Police say the arrests were not confined to race or socioeconomic status. The vast majority of those arrested were from the St. George area, and the suspects' ages range from 19 to more than 70 years old. Authorities say the operation reveals there is a problem with child sex trafficking locally, but it's not limited to St. George '-- the issue is prevalent throughout the country.
        ''We have open cases and we're exploring those,'' Barfuss said. ''There's a level that needs to be met for criminal prosecution, and the individuals who were arrested all clearly crossed that line multiple times in order for us to book them into jail and pursue charges against them.''
        Do big events fuel human trafficking?Authorities say they established approximately 5 pre-planned locations familiar to all law enforcement agencies within about one mile of the Dixie State University police station, all of which have safety and contingency plans in place to plan the arrests. Police say they gave the individuals that engaged in illegal activity online the opportunity to come and meet the individual they thought was a child under the age of 14 to have sex with. This case and operation was specifically geared around sexual exploitation of minors, whether that be individuals that are sending illegal videos and images of themselves or soliciting that material, according to police.
        Police arrested the following 12 individuals:
        Mason Holzendorf, of St. George, faces a second-degree felony charge of enticing a minor (electronic). Curtis Mills, of Cedar City, faces a second-degree felony charge of enticing a minor (electronic), contributing to the delinquency of a minor, and drug charges.Donte Ford, of Tulare, California faces a third-degree felony charge of human trafficking, a third-degree felony charge of transporting contraband to jail, and drug charges. According to police, Ford allegedly traveled to St. George under the ploy he was meeting with a young woman in need of money and bringing her to Las Vegas to potentially become a prostitute.Nathan Rose, of St. George faces a second-degree felony charge of enticing a minor (electronic).Alex Bustos, of St. George faces a second-degree felony charge of enticing a minor (electronic).Michael Erskine, of St. George faces a second-degree felony charge of rape of a child under the age of 14, a second-degree felony charge of enticing a minor (electronic), a third-degree felony charge of exploiting a minor (pornography), and a second-degree felony charge of criminal solicitation. Skyler Carter of Cedar City faces a second-degree felony charge of enticing a minor (electronic), a third-degree felony charge of exploiting a minor (pornography), and obstruction of justice. Joseph Cooke of Kanab faces a second-degree felony charge of rape of a child under the age of 14 and a second-degree felony of criminal solicitation. Jacob Rogers of Las Vegas, Nevada faces a second-degree felony charge of enticing a minor (electronic), a third-degree felony charge of providing harmful material to a minor.Adrian Hernandez of St. George faces a second-degree felony charge of rape of a child under the age of 14 and a third-degree felony charge of providing harmful material to a minor.John Krampf, of Kane County, faces nine felony counts of sexual exploitation of a minor. Ali Alnasser, of Cedar City, faces a second-degree felony charge of enticing a minor (electronic). Woman builds infrastructure of support for sex trafficking victimsAuthorities served a search warrant at a Kane County residence of John Krampf, who police say was distributing thousands of images and videos of child pornography. Authorities are actively working with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children and other partners to compare the material to databases they have in place and determine if there are any new victims, according to Barfuss.
        ''We want to thank our community partners and the public for bringing this to our attention,'' Barfuss said. ''The big takeaway is that parents and community members need to remain vigilant and educate children about internet safety and resources to help us best have those conversations.''

        Joel Shannon and Sean McDonnell | USA TODAY NETWORK | 6:03 am EDT September 3, 2020
        Days after the U.S. Marshals Service announced the rescue of 39 endangered children in Georgia, similar operations are ongoing in two other states as authorities target missing kids who may be victims of sex trafficking.
        In Ohio, "Operation Safety Net" led to the discovery of 25 children ages 13 to 18 in less than three weeks, the Marshals Service said. The operation is likely to continue into October, U.S. Marshal Peter Elliott said.
        A two-week operation is underway near Indianapolis, Darby Kirby, chief of the Marshals' Missing Child Unit, told USA TODAY in an email Tuesday.
        These operations are part of efforts at the local level to locate missing children rather than a coordinated nationwide sweep, Kirby said. Since 2005, the marshals have helped recover 1,800 missing children.
        Operations such as Safety Net allow agents to give undivided attention to finding endangered children, U.S. Marshals Public Information Officer Anne Murphy said.
        Fact check: More than 8,000 US trafficking arrests since 2017 have not included members of Congress
        ''If they were looking for kids every day, they would find kids every day,'' said Suzanne Lewis-Johnson, CEO at RAHAB Ministries in Ohio, who worked as an FBI agent and on a Child Exploitation Task Force running operations similar to the ones conducted by the Marshals Service.
        The results of these operations will challenge widespread assumptions about endangered children in the USA, Staca Shehan, a vice president with the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, told USA TODAY on Tuesday.
        The operation in Georgia '' dubbed "Operation Not Forgotten" '' is a prime example. Many of the 39 children recovered were found with a parent, kidnapped by a parent, had gone missing from child services or had fled juvenile justice, according to Kirby's statement.
        Checking the facts: Claim linking Milwaukee police and sex trafficking conspiracy is unfounded
        That's in contrast to widespread fears about child abductions at the hands of strangers, Shehan said. It is much more common for a child to become ensnared in human trafficking through the actions of a relative or after running away.
        In the Georgia operation, 15 recovered children were victims of trafficking '' most would be considered runaways "who fell into the human trafficking realm," according to Kirby.
        Some children who run away have been lured by predators online, according to Lewis-Johnson.
        Human traffickers target vulnerabilities and recruit missing children or kids who can be lured away from home, Lewis-Johnson said. They'll often look for insecurities, such as a poor home life, or even social media posts about needing money or feeling uncared for.
        Lewis-Johnson said predators groom children and offer themselves as a counterfeit solution.
        Shehan said misconceptions about endangered children can make it harder to locate them. A focus on the rare cases of abduction by a stranger can make it easy for the public to overlook children who have run away or may be in danger from a parent or relative.
        ''Right now, I believe our children are more vulnerable to traffickers than they've ever been,'' Lewis-Johnson said.

        It's pay to not play.
        Facebook is offering users money to refrain from using the site and Instagram in the weeks leading up to the bitterly contested November elections.
        To assess the impact of social media on voting, the company will pay selected members up to $120 to deactivate their accounts beginning at the end of September.
        ''Anyone who chooses to opt-in '' whether it's completing surveys or deactivating FB or IG for a period of time '' will be compensated,'' Facebook spokesperson Liz Bourgeois tweeted last week. ''This is fairly standard for this type of academic research.''
        The Silicon Valley giant said it expects 200,000 to 400,000 people to take part.
        ''Representative, scientific samples of people in the US will be selected and invited to participate in the study. Some potential participants will see a notice in Facebook or Instagram inviting them to take part in the study,'' Facebook said. ''Study samples will be designed to ensure that participants mirror the diversity of the US adult population, as well as users of Facebook and Instagram.''
        Rafael Henrique/SOPA Images/LightRocket via Getty ImagesThe results of the study are expected to be released sometime next year.
        ''To continue to amplify all that is good for democracy on social media, and mitigate against that which is not, we need more objective, dispassionate, empirically grounded research,'' Facebook said in describing the plan.
        The research will be carried out by independent data scientists, company officials said.
        Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced last Thursday that he was banning new political ads in the week before the election to curb misinformation.

      VIDEO-1619 Project: Trump says Department of Education will investigate use in schools - CNNPolitics
        Link to Article
        Archived Version
        Mon, 07 Sep 2020 21:57
        (CNN) President Donald Trump is continuing to wage battle against interpretations of history which he claims are un-American.
        In a Sunday morning tweet, the President said the US Department of Education would investigate whether California schools are using the New York Times' "1619 Project" in public school curriculum. The Pulitzer-Prize winning collection reframes American history around the date of August 1619, when the first slave ship arrived on America's shores.
        "Department of Education is looking at this. If so, they will not be funded!" he wrote on Twitter, citing a message from an unverified account saying it was being taught in schools there.
        The message came after the President on Friday night banned federal agencies from conducting racial sensitivity training related to "white privilege" and "critical race theory."
        Russell Vought, director of the Office of Management and Budget, instructed heads of federal agencies to dramatically alter racial sensitivity training programs for employees, deeming them "un-American propaganda" in a two-page memo.
        Like that memo, it's unclear the extent of the phenomenon the President is identifying. Some schools have said they will adopt the 1619 Project into their lessons -- though how many isn't known.
        The 1619 Project was launched by the New York Times Magazine last year. After the launch, the Pulitzer Center was named an education partner for the project and announced its education team would develop educational resources and curricula for teachers to use. The 1619 Project curriculum is available online for free through the center.
        Arkansas Sen. Tom Cotton, a Republican, has introduced legislation that would prevent schools from teaching the curriculum. The legislation, titled the Saving American History Act of 2020, "would prohibit the use of federal funds to teach the 1619 Project by K-12 schools or school districts. Schools that teach the 1619 Project would also be ineligible for federal professional-development grants."
        The legislation appears unlikely to gain any significant traction in the Senate but stands as a way for Cotton to send a message.
        The moves follow a pattern by the President of disparaging attempts to process or reckon with the country's fraught racial history. In his convention acceptance speech, the President said "Americans are exhausted, trying to keep up with the latest lists of approved words and phrases, and the ever more restrictive political decrees. Many things have a different name now, and the rules are constantly changing."
        "We want our sons and daughters to know the truth," Trump went on. "America is the greatest and most exceptional nation in the history of the world. Our country wasn't built by cancel culture, speech codes, and crushing conformity. We are not a nation of timid spirits."
        Trump has also sought to draw contrast with Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden in the months before the election. Trump has vowed to protect monuments, including those dedicated to Confederate figures, called the phrase "Black Lives Matter" a "symbol of hate" and threatened to withhold funding from cities in blue states that he says are permitting unrest in the streets.
        The President and Attorney General William Barr have said that they don't believe systemic racism exists in the United States.
        In an exclusive interview that aired Sunday with CNN's Dana Bash, Democratic vice presidential nominee Kamala Harris rebuked Trump and Barr's comments regarding systemic racism in the US, saying they are "spending full time in a different reality."
        "We do have two systems of justice" for Black and White Americans, Harris told Bash.
        The comments from the first Black and South Asian American woman on a major party presidential ticket come less than two months before the November election in which Harris suggested Trump was not a "real leader" on racial justice.
        "I don't think that most reasonable people who are paying attention to the facts would dispute that there are racial disparities and a system that has engaged in racism in terms of how the laws have been enforced," said Harris, a California senator and former state attorney general. "It does us no good to deny that. Let's just deal with it. Let's be honest. These might be difficult conversations for some, but they're not difficult conversations for leaders, not for real leaders."

        New York (CNN Business)Jeffrey Goldberg, editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, said his magazine's story about Trump calling Americans who died in battle "losers" and "suckers," was just the tip of the iceberg.
        "I would fully expect more reporting to come out about this and more confirmation and new pieces of information in the coming days and weeks," Goldberg told CNN's Chief Media Correspondent Brian Stelter on "Reliable Sources" Sunday. "We have a responsibility and we're going to do it regardless of what he says."
        The magazine received backlash -- from Trump and many others -- for attributing the information to four anonymous sources. CNN has
        confirmed several aspects of The Atlantic's reporting, also with sources who chose to remain anonymous.
        But Goldberg said that's how the media is able to do its job of uncovering stories that take place behind closed doors.
        "We all have to use anonymous sources, especially in a climate where the president of the United States tries to actively intimidate," Goldberg said of his editorial decision to cite nameless people. "These are not people who are anonymous to me."
        Carl Bernstein, the investigate reporter known for breaking the Watergate story that took down President Richard Nixon, told Stelter on Reliable Sources Sunday that anonymous sourcing is often a crucial tool for reporters.
        "Almost all 200 of our stories about Watergate were based on anonymous sourcing," he said. Bernstein added that during the Trump era, "reporting is almost uniformly based on anonymous sourcing in part because that's the only way we can get to the truth."
        When it comes to the current presidency, Bernstein said, "We have to recognize that almost everything we know about the truth of Donald Trump and his presidency comes from reporting," adding, "The fake news is the president's news," and journalists are "doing the real reporting."
        On Sunday,
        Trump fired back at The Atlantic, directly attacking its majority owner, Laurene Powell Jobs.
        tweeted. "Call her, write her, let her know how you feel!!!"
        Goldberg shot back at Trump, saying that the magazine will continue to report on his administration.
        "We're not going to be intimidated by the President of the United States. We're going to do our jobs," Goldberg said.

        On Saturday, college football commentator Kirk Herbstreit started crying on live TV while pushing far-left talking points, telling white people that they need to "do better."
        ''I also think that if you're a white player in these locker rooms, I think it's incumbent upon you to really help with the change,'' he said. ''I think it's one to have rallies, it's one thing to skip a practice because of social injustice, it's one thing for the NBA and the NFL to miss games to make a statement '-- and those things are great.''

        ''But my question is, what's next? What does that lead to?'' he added. ''You go back to practice the next day. What will lead to change? And I really think, I was talking David Shaw, the head coach at Stanford, who really, he and I had a great talk, I love listening to wisdom and his thoughts and he shared a quote to me and reminded me from Benjamin Franklin, he said, 'justice will not be served until those who are unaffected are as outraged as though who are.'''
        Herbstreit then started sobbing: ''And I think that's what I mean when I think, the black community is hurting. If you've listened, the word empathy and compassion over these last four months. How do you listen to these stories and not feel pain? And not want to help? You know what I mean? You know what I mean? It's like, the-, wha-, wearing a hoodie and, uh, putting your hands at ten-and-two, oh God I better look out because I'm wearing Nike gear. Like what? What are we talking about? And so, you can't relate to that if you're white, but you can listen and you can and try to help because this is not okay. It's just not. And, uh, we gotta do better, man. We gotta like lock arm and arm and be together in the football locker room, that stuff is gone. Those barriers are gone and, uh, we gotta do better.''

        Herbstreit immediately got slammed on social media.
        Political commentator Ian Miles Cheong tweeted: ''I've never seen a more emotionally manipulative plea in all of sports. This is pathetic.''
        ''Kirk sounds like he should be working for cnn," said one Twitter user in response to the video.

        KIRK HERBSTREIT, ESPN HOST: I also think that if you're a white player in these locker rooms, I think it's incumbent upon you to really help with the change '-- I saw Dylan Boles there from Stanford involved.

I think it's one to have rallies, it's one thing to skip a practice because of social injustice, it's one thing for the NBA and the NFL to miss games to make a statement '-- and those things are great. But my question is, what's next? What does that lead to? You go back to practice the next day. What will lead to change?
