Art of Liberty Foundation Launches White Rose MUCHO GRANDE @ FreedomFest
Free Downloadable Posters Expose "Government" Disinformation Industrial Complex, the Monopolization of Media (and Everything Else)
July 14th, 2023 - The Art of Liberty Foundation, a start-up public policy organization exposing inter-generational organized crime's control of the "government," media, and academia from a principled voluntaryist perspective, is launching a collection of free downloadable posters called the White Rose MUCHO GRANDE at FreedomFest 2023.
The posters were inspired by The White Rose, an international group of freedom activists that made a free file of pro-freedom stickers exposing the scam of "The Covid" and the dangers of the "vaccines," among other topics.
Individual White Rose members around the world then download and print the stickers on inexpensive Brother QR 800 label printers, where they are then distributed to other liberty activists who then stick them in high-traffic locations to get around the monopolization and censorship of the media.
As an homage to the White Rose, the Art of Liberty Foundation has created a free file of POSTERS exposing the organized crime "government," the theft of fractional reserve banking, the monopolization of the media (and everything else). The posters reveal connections and monopolizations that have been invisible to the public, now made visible through visualization.
The posters reveal:
· A network of bankers, central bankers, politicians, media and military/intelligence agency operatives organized into a small handful of groups that Jeffrey Epstein was a member of (Bilderberg, Council on Foreign Relations, and Trilateral Commission) that dominate every major power position in the US "government," media, military, federal law enforcement, Federal Reserve, World Bank, Import-Export Bank, and other institutions going back decades through both Republican and Democrat administrations where the participants are meeting regularly in secure facilities.

“Goverment”, Media and Academia Criminality Exposed
tBiden Crime Family Had Over 20 Shell Companies Laundering Foreign Payments, Comer Claims
According to House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-Ky.), the Biden family allegedly set up over 20 shell companies in an effort to launder millions of dollars paid by foreign entities.
According to House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-Ky.), the Biden family allegedly set up over 20 shell companies in an effort to launder millions of dollars paid by foreign entities.
Comer shared on Twitter that the Republicans on the House Oversight Committee examined Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) from the Treasury and issued subpoenas to banks and individuals. From these records, it was discovered that the Biden family had formed these entities to accept, forward, and collect payments.
"We found all these shell companies that make absolutely no sense," Comer told Maria Bartiromo on Fox Business. "I don't believe they have paid a penny of revenue, a penny of taxes on most of this... millions of dollars they received from our adversaries around the world."

Flashback Video: DHS Conducts Drill of Same Scenario One Year Before Their Hoax Boston Marathon Bombing
We have a folder in the Liberator with all the evidence that the 2013 Boston Marathon "bombing" was a hoax event so the organized crime "government" could justify rolling out pre-purchased armored vehicles in cities and towns around the country. They also beta-tested searching homes without warrants and locking down a large-scale American city using Hollywood trickery and propaganda. This video exposes they did a complete trial run of the same scenario a year before at the 2012 Boston Marathon. If you don't understand that the "government" is running large scale hoaxes using their "control-of-perception" media propaganda system then we suggest you deep dive either 9-11, the Oklahoma City Bombing, or the Boston Marathon "bombing" just to understand how the magician does the trick. You can find all our evidence for all these hoax events for police state in the free Dropboxes for:The Liberator: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/f8vwa29bg8wpp0r/AAByoYT8XcVsbgUYFmrVPLxia?dl=0
WHAT? IRS Escalate War On 2nd Amendment, Steals Customer Information From Gun Store Owner In Raid
The federal government and the Biden administration have once again escalated their war on the 2nd amendment.
After a pressure campaign by left-wing, anti-gun activists, many credit card companies began tracking firearm purchases made by their customers this year and last year, drawing significant backlash from gun owners and 2nd Amendment rights advocates.
Now, federal agents raided one Montana gun store and stole the personal information of customers contained on their 4473 forms.
The gun store owner , Tom Van Hoose, says that he has been repeatedly harassed by federal agents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Occupational Safety & Health Administration, the Department of Homeland Security, the State of Montana, and the Internal Revenue Service.
Van Hoose speculated that federal agents have been targeting him because of the 'types of weapons' he sells that have been receiving negative attention in the press, which presumably means semi-automatic rifles such as AR-15's.
Fury over the PPE graveyard: Mountain of thousands of unused packs of aprons and masks are fly-tipped near New Forest nature reserve
HCC have contacted the Environment Agency to work out whether the protective gear was left during the pandemic because it was defective.
During the Covid pandemic the Department for Health and Social Care spent £12billion on PPE - but the allocation of contracts and purchasing of medical clothing has been under criticism.
In 2022 the government revealed DHSC lost 75 per cent of its first year budget to inflated prices and defected kit - including £4billion of unusable PPE which was set to be burned 'to generate power'.
The cost of storing unused equipment in warehouses hit an eye-watering £770,000 per day last year.
Now, a report from the HCC Regulatory Committee meeting, revealed the discovery was made following an investigation by New Forest District Council into use of land at Little Testwood Farm Caravan Park, Hampshire.
'Double-Talking' Vaccine Scientist Refuses To Debate RFK Jr. Despite $1.5 Million Charity Pot

Senate Democrats Introduce Bill to Spend $25 Million to Train More Abortionists
The bill, called "The Reproductive Health Care Training Act," was introduced on Thursday and would "provide for the establishment of an education program to expand abortion care training and access."
"When Roe v. Wade was overturned, women in Wisconsin were sent back to 1849, living under a criminal abortion ban. But the impact didn't stop there. Doctors have been barred from providing the care they have been trained to perform and medical students and faculty are being forced to travel out of state for training. In order for women to exercise their right and freedom to control their bodies, doctors need the proper reproductive health care training," said Senator Baldwin in a press release about the bill. "The Reproductive Health Care Training Act will bolster the pipeline of these needed doctors by easing the burden that out-of-state training presents and supporting the medical programs that are seeing an influx of individuals that need training."
600,000 Americans Per Year Are Dying From COVID Shots Says Top Insurance Analyst
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Those vaccinated against COVID-19 have a 26 percent higher mortality rate on average compared to those who declined the jab – and the death toll is even more staggering for vaccinated people under 50 years old, where mortality is 49 percent higher than for those unvaccinated.
The shocking numbers are based on government data from the United Kingdom and were brought to Senator Ron Johnson's (R-WI) attention by Josh Stirling, one of the nation's top insurance analysts and formerly Senior Research Analyst for U.S. nonlife insurance at Sanford C. Bernstein & Co.
"Worst of all – the people who only took one dose of the vaccine have an approximately 145 percent worse mortality rate," Stirling said and explained that this even higher death rate applies to those who took the first shot and then had adverse reactions, making them stop the planned vaccination schedule.
Secession talks emerge in one Northern California county. Is a new state a possibility?
ACRAMENTO, Calif. — When considering the possibility of a 51st U.S. state, places like Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico are likely some of the first to spring to mind.
But what about a sparser alternative, nestled between California and Nevada, with prime views of Lake Tahoe's southern shore?
A new proposal, put forth by a resident and supported by at least one former county leader, would have El Dorado County secede from California and become its own state.
The idea is being spearheaded by county resident Sharon Durst, who spoke alongside former county Supervisor Ray Nutting at a community meeting last month, the Mountain Democrat newspaper reported.
Durst also laid out the case for secession in a more than 7,000-word post published May 26 on newsletter platform Substack.
"El Dorado relies mostly on its income from tourism and on the unhappy people from Sacramento, the Bay Area and Los Angeles buying residential or second homes away from the crime-ridden metropolitan areas," Durst wrote.
72 Hours Before JPMorgan Offered $290 Million to Make Epstein Claims Go Away, a Lawyer Disclosed that the Bank Had Withheld 1500 Documents
Sigrid McCawley is a Managing Partner at law firm, Boies Schiller Flexner, which has been representing the sexually assaulted and/or sex-trafficked victims of Jeffrey Epstein for years, including Virginia Roberts Giuffre, who settled claims against Prince Andrew last year for an undisclosed sum of money. Giuffre alleged in her lawsuit that Epstein had trafficked her and forced her to have sex with Prince Andrew when she was just 17.
McCawley is also a key lawyer on the case styled as Jane Doe 1 v JPMorgan Chase in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. That lawsuit alleges that JPMorgan Chase was for years aware that Epstein was a sexual predator of underage girls, kept him as a client nonetheless, and functioned as a cash conduit for his crimes while ignoring anti-money laundering laws. The JPMorgan internal emails that have been released in court filings buttress those allegations.
Yes, Flying Cars Are Coming. Here Are 7 That Are Hitting the Skies Soon.
It may not be long before you can look up to the skies and see cars flying overhead. Companies around the world are trying to solve the problem of urban congestion by lifting travelers above the traffic. Plus, it's just a cool way to travel.
One firm in Florida already has a flying car on the market and three others are close to ushering their concepts into production. Most will require a standard driver's license and some type of drone or pilot's license.
Unlike eVTOLs, flying cars actually fit into existing regulatory structures. According to Dr. Kyriakos Kourousis, program director at the University of Limerick program in airworthiness and fellow at the Royal Aeronautical Society: "The market could be bigger than that corresponding to ultralight/light and general aviation aircraft." That translates to thousands of flying cars.
Several of the vehicles will be sold as kits, which makes for easier approval under FAA regulatory structures. Though years away, the eventual plan for many is to go fully autonomous when in flight mode.

Remote Workers Leaving Democratic Cities in Droves
As reported by the Washington Free Beacon, the data from American Community Survey showed that a number of the largest cities in the country, all controlled by Democrats, continue to be the hardest-hit by an ongoing exodus of remote workers. The most severe net migration loss was in New York City, which lost approximately 116,000 remote employees. Los Angeles lost 53,000, while San Francisco saw an exodus of 32,000, and at least 29,000 left Chicago.
A number of factors have contributed to this pattern of employees leaving the most liberal cities, including rising costs of living, high taxes, and increasing crime rates due to liberal soft-on-crime policies. With a number of companies and various workplaces realizing that the remote work model could remain in effect even after the Chinese Coronavirus pandemic ended, many employees have opted for moving to safer and more affordable locations as they continue their remote work.
New York City in particular has seen an increase in violent crime amid ongoing bail reform efforts, with 132 felony assaults in the city's subway system in the first quarter of 2023 alone. Chicago has also suffered from a rise in crime, with the city's homicide rate rising by 40 percent since 2019. San Francisco saw a similar 40 percent increase in homicides from 2020 to 2022.
JPMorgan Is Alleged to Have Used Its Hedge Fund's Private Jet to Engage in Sex-Trafficking for Jeffrey Epstein
At a March 13 court hearing this year, prominent attorney, David Boies, argued in open court that the largest federally-insured bank in the United States, JPMorgan Chase – which has more than 5,000 Chase bank branches holding mom and pop savings from coast to coast – had used a private jet owned by the bank's hedge fund, Highbridge Capital, to transport girls for Epstein's sex trafficking operation.
A January 13, 2023 amended complaint filed by Boies' law firm, elaborated on the allegation as follows:
"As another example of JP Morgan and [Jes] Staley's benefit from assisting Epstein, a highly profitable deal for JP Morgan was the Highbridge acquisition.
"In 2004, when Epstein's sex trafficking and abuse operation was running at full speed, Epstein served up another big financial payday for JP Morgan.
"Epstein was close friends with Glenn Dubin, the billionaire who ran Highbridge Capital Management.
"Through Epstein's connection, it has been reported that Staley arranged for JP Morgan to buy a majority stake in Dubin's fund, which resulted in a sizeable profit for JP Morgan. This arrangement was profitable for both Staley and JPMorgan, further incentivizing JP Morgan to ignore the suspicious activity in Epstein's accounts and to assist in his sex-trafficking venture.

Hunter Biden reaches deal to plead guilty in tax, gun case
President Biden's son Hunter has reached a tentative agreement with federal prosecutors to plead guilty to two minor tax crimes and admit to the facts of a gun charge under terms that would probably keep him out of jail, according to court papers filed Tuesday.
Any proposed plea deal would have to be approved by a federal judge. Both the prosecutors and the defense counsel have requested a court hearing at which Hunter Biden, 53, can enter his plea.
The younger Biden's attorney said the deal means the long-running criminal investigation involving the president's son "is resolved." But Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss, the lead prosecutor in the case, said the investigation "is ongoing," suggesting that matters beyond the tax and gun issues are still under scrutiny.
The probe was opened in 2018, during the administration of President Donald Trump. Since 2020, Republican politicians have repeatedly accused Hunter Biden of broad wrongdoing in his overseas business deals and predicted that the Biden administration would be reluctant to pursue the case. The terms of the proposed deal — negotiated with Weiss, a holdover from Trump's administration — were quickly dismissed Tuesday by congressional Republicans, who vowed to continue investigating the Biden family.
FBI Make-Work Entrapment Schemes: Creating Criminals in Order to Arrest Them
We're not dealing with a government that exists to serve its people, protect their liberties and ensure their happiness.
Rather, we are the unfortunate victims of the diabolical machinations of a make-works program carried out on an epic scale whose only purpose is to keep the powers-that-be permanently (and profitably) employed.
Case in point: the FBI.
The government's henchmen have become the embodiment of how power, once acquired, can be so easily corrupted and abused. Indeed, far from being tough on crime, FBI agents are also among the nation's most notorious lawbreakers.
Whether the FBI is planting undercover agents in churches, synagogues and mosques; issuing fake emergency letters to gain access to Americans' phone records; using intimidation tactics to silence Americans who are critical of the government, or persuading impressionable individuals to plot acts of terror and then entrapping them, the overall impression of the nation's secret police force is that of a well-dressed thug, flexing its muscles and doing the boss' dirty work
.
If You Work for the FBI, Quit Your Job
Anyone who cares about law enforcement, the rule of law, and the Constitution, should not associate with the criminal gang that the bureau is quickly becoming. If you want to terrify innocent Americans, scoff at Congress, and lie to courts, then the FBI is the right place for you. Those who care about their reputations for integrity should flee the FBI as quickly as possible.
Legitimacy in a republic originates with the consent of the governed. A president wields legitimate constitutional authority because he stands for an election. The FBI has no independent authority under the Constitution. Yet instead of deferring to its constitutional masters, the FBI now brazenly interferes in these elections.
In May, the Harvard Caps Harris Poll revealed that a whopping 70 percent of registered voters, "are very concerned about future interference by the FBI and intelligence agencies in elections." The poll also indicated that 69 percent of respondents were not surprised the FBI violated its own policy to start the Russian collusion probe.
Is Non-GMO or Organic Food safer? The truth may surprise you!
Non-GMO Project verifies that a product doesn't contain GMO ingredients. While that is good, it's not the whole story about what the product contains, how it was produced, and where it came from.
It's key to remember:
Organic food is non-GMO, but non-GMO food isn't necessarily organic.
Let's break it down...
USDA Organic regulations prohibit any GMO ingredients in a certified organic product. (1)
Organic crops cannot be grown with synthetic pesticides. Non-GMO crops can be grown the same as conventional crops and can still be laden with toxic pesticide residue. (1)

Video: Student Removed From Class For Insisting There Are Only Two Genders
In the exchange, the student holds firm demanding to know why he can't express his opinion, despite it being scientifically sound.
The teacher tells the student that "this is an inclusive school," and that it is his opinion that there are "more than two genders in this country," adding "that is an opinion which is acceptable."
"You are choosing to make an issue of this," the teacher continues, adding that the student "had an opportunity to keep quiet."
When the student tells the teacher "I think it's silly to have any more than two genders," the teacher responds, "could you please keep that opinion to your own house."
A Rural, Waldorf Microschool Gets Shut Down By State Regulators
Ariel Maguire gathered together with other moms in her rural area of the Big Island of Hawaii to create a child-centered educational solution for local families. It was late 2021 and the parents realized that nearly two years of pandemic policies had left their kids behind both academically and socially.
There weren't a lot of child care or early-education options nearby. "The closest place to send our kids would be a little over an hour drive each way and it has a huge waitlist," Maguire told me in a recent podcast interview. "We were all struggling because we'd been stuck at home with our kids without community for a couple of years and needed to get back to work."
After Taking Farms, the Dutch Government Is Now Dictating Who Can Buy Homes and the Price
The Dutch government was successful in taking about 3,000 farms, removing livelihoods and reducing the food supply, and now they want to take over private homes, too. The Housing Act will allow municipalities to force homeowners to sell their homes ONLY to people with a lower to middle income if the value of the home is less than €355,000 ($400,000 USD). People who own cheaper homes will not be able to benefit from market value as equity will be capped, while wealthy people can continue to benefit from appreciation. Research shows that preventing investors from buying rental homes will drive housing prices UP and the cost of rent, too. It is a shocking power grab in the year 2023. Last year, Blackstone bought up billions in homes in the Netherlands and own 117,000 houses in Europe, mostly in the Netherlands.
Vax-Pushing Debate Dodger Linked To 'Chimeric' Coronavirus Creation In Wuhan
Hotez, a frequent guest on CNN and NBC during the Covid-19 pandemic, first tried the 'let's take this offline' approach with Rogan, after first posting a link to a VICE article attacking claims made by RFK Jr. on Rogan's podcast. Rogan called that a "non answer," and his original $100,000 offer to donate to charity snowballed into millions after a flood of people committed to the pot.
He now says that getting 'tag-teamed' on Twitter has been "overwhelming," telling MSNBC's Mehdi Hasan (after an establishment support strike was called in) "You know, the attacks from the anti-vaccine lobby do come in waves. And this time, though, it's been one of the tougher ones. Because, as you pointed out, the physical stalking and the incessant threatening emails."
"And the stuff online is just total whack-a-doodle. And let's face it, when you have RFK Jr. and Joe Rogan, and Elon Musk, all tag-teaming, those tres hombres at the same time," he added. "That probably includes just about every follower on Twitter. So, it's pretty overwhelming."

Senate Report Shows China Company CEFC Sent Over $5 Million to Hunter Biden Related Firms Just Days After "I Am Sitting Here With My Father" Text to Chinese Business Associate
A Senate report from September 2020 titled "Hunter Biden, Burisma, and Corruption: The Impact on U.S. Government Policy and Related Concerns" reports over $5 million was sent to two Hunter Biden related firms by the Chinese firm CEFC in early August 2017, which turns out to be just days after Hunter Biden sent a threatening WhatsApp text message on July 30, 2017 to Chinese business associate Henry Zhao that claimed Hunter's father Joe Biden was "sitting here" with him.
The WhatsApp message was revealed Thursday as part of a package of IRS whistleblower statements and evidence released by the House Ways and Means Committee.
"I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled. Tell the director that I would like to resolve this now before it gets out of hand, and now means tonight. And, Z, if I get a call or text from anyone involved in this other than you, Zhang, or the chairman, I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me and every person he knows and my ability to forever hold a grudge that you will regret not following my directions. I am sitting here waiting for the call with my father.".
3M Reaches $10.3 Billion Settlement Over US Allegations Of 'Forever Chemicals' Contamination
The company announced Thursday that the agreement "includes present value commitment of up to $10.3 billion payable over 13 years."
The $10.3 billion agreement would settle a case that had been scheduled for trial earlier this month over a 2018 lawsuit brought by the city of Stuart, Florida. The judge overseeing the case delayed the trial the morning it was set to start.
The city alleged that 3M made or sold firefighting foams containing PFAS that polluted local soil and groundwater, and sought for more than $100 million for filtration and remediation.
Stuart is just one of about 300 communities that have filed similar suits against companies such as 3M that produced firefighting foam or the PFAS it contained.
Outdated Occupations: 15 Dying Professions That Aren't Worth Pursuing
While some jobs show signs of growth in the future, more and more professions are starting to die.

If you're trying to stop living paycheck to paycheck and want a more secure financial future, here are 14 professions you should avoid.
Putin seals Wagner's fate
Russian President Vladimir Putin has offered a choice to the soldiers of the Wagner private military company involved in Saturday's failed armed rebellion. They can either sign a contract with Russia's Defense Ministry Ministry or other security agencies, return home or move to neighboring Belarus, the Russian leader said in a televised addressed.
"The overwhelming majority of the fighters and commanders of the Wagner group are also Russian patriots, devoted to their people and country. They proved this with their courage on the battlefield," Putin said in his address on Monday evening.
From Merck To Microsoft: These Are The Companies That BlackRock 'Controls' The Most Of
A week after an employee of the world's largest asset management company, BlackRock, described how the company attempts to stay out of the media spotlight while buying politicians and profiting off of war (according to undercover footage obtained by the O'Keefe Media Group), we thought it worth a look at just what companies does the 34-year-old company have the most control of.
As a reminder, in footage secretly recorded by undercover journalists in New York, a BlackRock recruiter named Serge Varlay explains how the investment company is able to "run the world."
Two Hundred Thousand Poverty Linked Deaths in a Year in the USA Call for Urgent Remedial Actions
The figure of 183,000 poverty related deaths was provided in a study published in JAMA Internal Medicine (Journal of the American Medical Association) on April 17, 2023. This research paper titled 'Novel Estimates of Mortality Associated with Poverty in the US' has been authored by David Brady of the University of California, Ulrich Kohler of the University of Potsdam and Hui Zheng of the University of Ohio. Drawing attention to the fact that these deaths are 10 times the number of homicides, the authors wonder why these do not receive the same attention. This estimate of mortality linked to poverty is regarded to be a conservative estimate by them. If cumulative poverty is considered, then mortality can be much higher.
Zuck's Spy: Former CIA Agent Takes Over 'Elections Policies' at Facebook
Aaron Berman, a 17-year veteran of the CIA who already held a senior position in Facebook's "misinformation" team during the 2020 election, has been promoted to "Head of Elections Policies" at the company now known as Meta.
Berman served at the CIA between March 2002 and July 2019. During that time, he wrote for and edited the President's Daily Brief, an influential top-secret document prepared by the U.S. intelligence community given to the president each morning.
The Great Grift: More than $200 billion in COVID-19 aid may have been stolen, federal watchdog says
WASHINGTON (AP) — More than $200 billion may have been stolen from two large COVID-19 relief initiatives, according to new estimates from a federal watchdog investigating federally funded programs that helped small businesses survive the worst public health crisis in more than a hundred years.
The numbers issued Tuesday by the U.S. Small Business Administration inspector general are much greater than the office's previous projections and underscore how vulnerable the Paycheck Protection and COVID-19 Economic Injury Disaster Loan programs were to fraudsters, particularly during the early stages of the coronavirus pandemic.
How Ukraine Torture Sites Became New Norm
A significant increase in violations of the right to liberty and security of persons by Ukrainian security forces has been documented by the UN Human Rights Office (OHCHR) since February 24, 2022.
"In territory of Ukraine under control of the Government of Ukraine, OHCHR documented 91 cases of enforced disappearances and arbitrary detentions (79 men, 12 women) committed by Ukrainian armed forces and law enforcement agencies," the report said, adding that most detainees were arrested for suspicion of collaborating with, or other forms of aiding, Russian Armed Forces.
JPMorgan Had a Secret Project that Is Now Spreading Its Scandalous Internal Emails with Sex Trafficker Jeffrey Epstein to News Outlets Worldwide
According to unsealed documents released this week by the U.S. Virgin Islands in its federal lawsuit against JPMorgan Chase over claims it facilitated Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking of underage girls for more than a decade, the largest bank in the United States has a lot of explaining to do to the American people – and potentially to the criminal division of the U.S. Justice Department.
After Jeffrey Epstein was arrested by the U.S. Department of Justice on July 6, 2019 on federal sex trafficking charges, JPMorgan Chase – which had been Epstein's banker from 1998 to 2013 – apparently decided to get a quick look at how much legal liability and reputational damage it might have if its labyrinthine client relationship and intimate and undisclosed business relationship with Epstein came to light.

Israeli Occupation: How Microsoft, ibm, cisco and dell enable surveillance and control in Palestine
September, Israel installed an AI-powered gun at a military checkpoint in the occupied West Bank city of Hebron. Now, that same technology has been deployed at the entrance of the Aida refugee camp in Bethlehem. Across occupied East Jerusalem, you can find surveillance cameras strategically placed on street corners. And throughout the West Bank, Palestinians' encounters with Israeli soldiers often include not only violence but face-scanning apps designed to capture their personal data.
Technology has become integral to our modern lives, but for Palestinians, Big Tech has also become another way Israel enacts control.
Norway's Wealth Tax Is Backfiring. Are Americans Paying Attention?
"My capital will continue working in Norway," wrote the fishing magnate turned industrialist who launched his empire four decades ago with a 69-foot trawler he bought while saving money working on ships off the coast of Alaska.
Røkke, who Forbes estimates has a fortune of $5.1 billion, will cost the Norwegian government an estimated 175,000,000 kroner annually (roughly $16 million) with his departure. That might not sound like a lot of money, but Røkke is not the only wealthy entrepreneur leaving Norway, The Guardian notes.
Annual numbers of excess deaths in the US relative to other developed countries are growing at an alarming rate
People in the U.S. are dying at higher rates than in other similar high-income countries, and that difference is only growing. That's the key finding of a new study that I published in the journal PLOS One.
In 2021, more than 892,000 of the 3,456,000 deaths the U.S. experienced, or about 1 in 4, were "excess deaths." In 2019, that number was 483,000 deaths, or nearly 1 in 6. That represents an 84.9% increase in excess deaths in the U.S. between 2019 and 2021.
Excess deaths refer to the actual number of deaths that occur in a given year compared with expected deaths over that same time period based on prior years or, as in this study, in other countries.
Gold's Steady Migration From West To East
When the World Gold Council published its first Gold Demand Trends report 30 years ago, Asian demand made up 45% of the world's total. Today, the Asian share of global gold demand is approaching 60%.
China and India have driven this migration of gold East. The World Gold Council describes the two countries as "super consumers" of gold. Thirty years ago, China and India accounted for about 20% of annual consumer gold demand. Today, the two countries make up nearly 50% of gold demand.
The Indian gold revolution started in the early to mid-1990s when government policy changes freed up the market. In 1992, gold demand in India accounted for 340 tons. In 2022, that had more than doubled to 742 tons.
No Matter How You Frame It, The Adl Is A Racist Organization
The Anti-Defamation League is a dedicated Zionist, anti-Palestinian organization that has support for Israel as a declared part of its mission. A page on the group's website demonstrates that what began in the early twentieth century as a gutsy civil rights network dedicated to combating racism has morphed into a racist organization committed to Zionism and the state of Israel.
The following are a few choice examples of "accomplishments" the organization highlights on this very page.
250 Hollywood Celebrities Sign Letter Demanding Big Tech Censor Anyone Who Opposes Trans Surgeries On Kids
Some 250 woke Hollywood celebrities from movies, TV and music have signed their names to an open letter urging big tech companies to crack down on anyone who doesn't fall into line with the trans agenda, including advocating life changing gender surgeries on children.
The letter was sent to the CEOs of Meta, YouTube, TikTok and Twitter by GLAAD (Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation) and the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), and was signed by hundreds of famous names including Amy Schumer, Ariana Grande, Demi Lovato, Jamie Lee Curtis, Judd Apatow, Patrick Stewart and many more.
Overseas payments to Biden family could exceed $40M, Comer says: 'This was organized crime'
Members of President Biden's family may have accepted in excess of $40 million from foreign nationals in exchange for favorable policy decisions, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer suggested Wednesday.
The Kentucky Republican said that his panel has identified "six specific policy decisions" where Biden, 80, took actions that indicate he may have been "compromised," during an appearance on John Catsimatidis' "Cats & Cosby Show" on WABC 770 Wednesday.
Windy City Mayhem: HUNDREDS OF YOUTHS Invade Chicago Neighborhood, Destroy Property, and Terrorize Homeowners for Several Hours – Gunshots Also Reportedly Heard (VIDEO)
Hundreds of deranged teenagers stormed the streets of a Chicago neighborhood earlier this week and caused massive destruction along the way with no police in sight to protect the helpless residents.
WGN TV reported that around 9 PM Monday night, the teens poured off the Chicago "L" train at the Belmont Red Line stop and completely shut down the roadway for several hours. Residents were left in complete terror.
Biden Picks Up After Journalist Calls Secret Burner Phone Revealed In Hunter Scandal
"We know from the laptop that Hunter Biden's business paid for a private phone line that Joe Biden used while he was vice president," Schweizer told Fox News' Maria Bartiromo. "It was from AT&T, it was $300 a month, it was a global phone where you could access somebody anywhere around the world."
"We shared that phone number and that account information with people in the House Oversight Committee. My hope is that they if they haven't already, they will subpoena those records because I think it will give an indication on how tight the communication was.
Supreme Court strikes down affirmative action at Harvard and UNC
Stop me if you've heard this before, but these Supreme Court decisions are another manifestation of how conservative this court is, and how little regard it has for precedent. As it did in the Dobbs decision overturning Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court reversed itself. In 2003, the now-retired Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, writing for a majority of the court, concluded that the universities could consider race in its admissions decisions. That court explicitly recognized the government's goal of creating a diverse student body. Those days are gone.
OPINION Whistleblower: We Weren't 'Allowed' To Ask About The 'Big Guy' Joe Biden
Internal Revenue Service whistleblower Gary Shapley claims that he and other IRS agents were not allowed to ask questions about President Joe Biden – the "big guy" – during their investigation of his son, Hunter.
Shapley's allegations were initially provided in testimony to the House Ways and Means Committee last month. He fleshed out his claims in an interview with Fox News anchor Bret Baier on Wednesday.
Hunter Biden's business partner Tony Bobulinski offered to TESTIFY to Delaware grand jury
Hunter Biden's former business partner Tony Bobulinski offered to testify in the criminal case into the president son's activities led by U.S. Attorney David Weiss, but the Justice Department did not respond renewing accusations of misconduct.
An attorney for Bobulinski reached out to Weiss regarding his potential participation in the criminal probe, but never heard back from the DOJ prosecutor, two sources told CBS News. This development is the latest in a series of accusations that top DOJ officials may have improperly interfered by slow walking the investigation into the president's son and avoiding looking into his ties to Joe himself.

France Has Fallen': Dramatic Footage Shows Social Unrest Spreading In Third Night
The police killing of a 17-year-old during a traffic stop on Tuesday has unleashed three consecutive days of social unrest across France.
Bloomberg reports more than 600 people were arrested Thursday night into Friday, with a majority of them between the ages of 14 and 18.
Rioters targeted municipal buildings, town halls, and libraries in various major cities, stores were looted, and all hell broke out nationwide as the government deployed 40,000 police officers yesterday afternoon to quell the violence. About 200 officers were injured overnight in the Paris suburb of Nanterre, where the teen was killed.
The unrest is so bad that President Emmanuel Macron left an EU summit in Brussels, where he will hold another emergency security meeting Friday, AFP reported, citing his office.
HORROR SHOW UPDATE 2: Are GMO Mosquitos The Reason Florida Issued Statewide Emergency Malaria Alert?
It is extremely ironic that the drug to treat malaria artesunate is derived from the anti-parasitic wormwood plant, Artemisia. And the greater irony is that Artemisia as a natural supplement showed immense promise as both prophylaxis and early treatment for PSYOP-19.
It would now be especially advisable to take Ivermectin ahead of continued frankenmosquito releases as well as the upcoming followup "pandemic." It would also be worth considering Fenbendazole to treat the spike protein damage from both the virus and especially the deadly slow kill bioweapon injections. Ivermectin and Fenbendazole as a combination therapy may be even more profound for your overall health and wellbeing given what the One World Government and its psychotic apparatchiks like Gates have only really just begun their Great Reset global depopulation program.
Nigel Farage says 'this madness has to stop now' as he fears he's being forced out of UK
Nigel Farage is fearful of being forced out of the UK, saying: "We have to stop this madness."
This came after the former MEP had his bank account closed, claiming he was rejected by seven other banks.
Writing on Twitter, he called for other people affected by a similar issue to "speak out", adding: "We have to stop this madness."
Last week, he claimed that others who share a similar worldview to him face being treated in the same "stressful" way.
Mr Farage said the issue "may well fundamentally affect my future career going on from here and whether I could even stay living in this country."
The Vape Deception
In January 2020, the FDA finalized its enforcement policy on unauthorized flavored cartridge-based e-cigs that appeal to children. In a press announcement,4 the agency warned that companies must immediately cease manufacture, distribution and sale of all flavored cartridge-based e-cigarettes, with the exception of tobacco flavor and menthol.
As of August 8, 2016, all cartridge-based e-cigarette products are required to apply for and receive premarket authorization from the FDA's tobacco authority5 Since then, the FDA has received some 26 million applications,6 a volume the agency simply hasn't been able to handle.
As a result, illegal products have flooded the market. Many manufacturers never even bother to apply for authorization. They simply cash in for as long as they can.

China is in default on a trillion dollars in debt to US bondholders. Will the US force repayment?
Every country should pay its sovereign debt. Default, we are told, is not an option. But has anyone told China?
The United States pays interest on approximately $850 billion in debt held by the People's Republic of China. China, however, is currently in default on its sovereign debt held by American bondholders.
Successive U.S. administrations have chosen to sidestep this fact, allowing business and trade with China to proceed as normal. Now that the relationship with China has soured and the People's Republic of China has become the greatest adversarial threat to the U.S. and Western security, policymakers should revisit this appalling failure of justice.
Amish Died 90 Times Less — Steve Kirsch at Pennsylvania Senate
As many of you may know I live in Southern Iowa and manufacture a health product with my Amish crafts people that live a few miles away from me as well as in Northern Missouri.
I visit them often and during covid times, in August 2022 as I recall, I asked them whether they knew anyone in their extended Amish families or connections (which spans at least 7 Midwest States) that had either died of covid or actually had covid.
Most of my Amish said they hadn't heard of anyone.
Michigan Residents Could Face 5-Year Prison Sentence, $10,000 Fine for Using Wrong Pronouns
Michigan residents could soon face hefty prison sentences and fines for misgendering someone if a new bill passes the Democrat-controlled State Senate.
Democrats in the state's House of Representatives passed the bill, HB 4474, which would add "sexual orientation" and "gender identity or expression" as protected classes and criminalize causing a person to "feel terrorized, frightened, or threatened."
The bill advanced to the State Senate, where Democrats are expected to send it to Democratic governor Gretchen Whitmer, who would likely sign the legislation. If a victim says he or she is intimidated by another person and is a member of one of the protected classes, the accused person could spend five years in prison or pay a $10,000 fine.
Biden Spent $1 Billion To Get Schools Electric Buses. This Michigan District Says Theirs Hardly Work.
Michigan's fourth-largest school district is having "significant" performance issues with its expensive electric buses, issues that come after the Biden administration spent $1 billion to "transform America's school bus fleet" with electric models.
During an April 19 presentation to the Ann Arbor Public Schools Board of Education, the district's environmental sustainability director, Emile Lauzzana, highlighted a number of issues with the district's electric bus fleet. Those buses, Lauzzana said, have "a lot of downtime and performance issues" and aren't "fully on the road," despite the fact that they are "approximately five times more expensive than regular buses." The infrastructure upgrades required to use the buses, meanwhile, were "originally estimated to be only about $50,000" but "ended up being more like $200,000," according to Lauzzana. "I have a number of colleagues in different states who are facing similar challenges," the district official lamented. "For the school bus market, it's been challenging for us."

Leaked documents reveal Reuters helped overthrow Egyptian democracy
This July 3 marks the 10th anniversary of Egyptian army chief General Abdel Fattah Sisi's violent seizure of power in Cairo. The first democratically elected leader in 5000 years of Egyptian history, Mohamed Morsi, was swept from office, his supporters were massacred by the hundreds, and he ultimately died in prison. With US and UK support, Sisi quickly reversed any tentative democratic gains made during the country's brief, difficult transition from the rule of longtime Western-backed autocrat Hosni Mubarak.
In the decade since Sisi's coup, his government has systematically crushed any and all opposition to his rule. Political parties and critical media have been banned en masse, activists, journalists, and civil society actors harassed, disappeared, tortured and jailed, and prisons transformed into hotbeds of systemic sexual violence, and other horrific abuse. It is estimated that half of Egypt's 120,00 inmate population are currently incarcerated for political reasons, one of the highest rates in the world.

In this beach town, sometimes the first cop on the scene is a drone
When someone calls 911 for police in the upscale beach town of Santa Monica, California, a drone is dispatched from the roof of the station with a push of a button.
Officers respond, as well. But most of the time, the drone gets there first — rushing to a set of GPS coordinates punched in by the controller. Sometimes it is there in as fast as 30 seconds.
"It's a fundamental change in the way that we can bring policing services to our city," said Peter Lashley, a veteran of the force who often pilots the drone from a screen-filled command center inside the police station.

LionGlass boasts 10x the strength of regular glass, greener production
Despite its many advantages, glass has one major Achilles' heel – it's brittle. Now, engineers at Penn State have developed LionGlass, a new type of the material that's not only 10 times more damage resistant, but requires significantly less energy to manufacture.
The most commonly used form of glass, which you'll find in everything from windows to drinking glasses, is technically known as soda lime silicate glass. Manufacturing this common material requires furnaces that get up to 1,500 °C (2,732 °F), which of course consumes a lot of energy and releases a huge amount of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. On top of that, this glass is made from quartz sand, soda ash and limestone, the latter two of which release CO2 when melted.
The most damaging paper of the pandemic has just been published in The Lancet
Head on over to Peter McCullough's Substack for the details and please consider subscribing to his Substack. He's terrific, a great friend, a great scientist, and a man of great courage.
This is a pre-print so not yet peer-reviewed.
https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4496137
I'm sure they will try to get this paper killed. It is amazing that The Lancet is a teller of truth in this case.
The paper shows 74% of deaths post-vax could be attributed to the vaccine being a cause of death.
The results are strongly consistent with the Schwab paper where 71% of the deaths appeared to be consistent with a vaccine death.
France Set To Allow Police To Spy Through Phones
ench police should be able to spy on suspects by remotely activating the camera, microphone and GPS of their phones and other devices, lawmakers agreed late Wednesday.
Part of a wider justice reform bill, the spying provision has been attacked by the left and rights defenders as an authoritarian snoopers' charter, though Justice Minister Eric Dupond-Moretti insists it would affect only "dozens of cases a year".
Covering laptops, cars and other connected objects as well as phones, the measure would allow geolocation of suspects in crimes punishable by at least five years' jail.
Devices could also be remotely activated to record sound and images of people.
Large Banks Have Bled $921 Billion in Deposits Since April 2022 — the Fastest Pace in 40 Years — and a Much Larger Decline than Small Banks
You may recall reading a burst of headlines during the banking crisis in March of this year about depositors fleeing small banks for the perceived comfort of the largest banks. Unfortunately, those headlines were never put in context or updated to reflect a broader picture.
In fact, using deposit data that is updated weekly from the Federal Reserve's own H.8 releases, it becomes crystal clear that the large banks are bleeding deposits at the fastest pace in 40 years.
As the Federal Reserve data in the chart above indicates, deposits at the largest 25 commercial banks in the U.S. peaked at $11,679,758,700,000 on April 13, 2022. The most recent H.8 release shows that the deposits of the 25 largest banks as of June 21 stood at $10,758,977,000,000. That's a percentage decline of 7.88 percent or $920,781,700.
Tragic Death of JPMorgan Board Member Adds to the Bank's String of Unusual Deaths
On Sunday, James S. Crown died in an unusual single-car accident, reportedly on a motorsport racetrack at a "member-owned country club" in Aspen, Colorado. The Pitkin County Coroner's Office said in a statement that "The official cause of death is pending autopsy, although multiple blunt force trauma is evident." The Sheriff's Office indicated that the earliest new information would be made available to the public is next week.
In August of last year, Wall Street On Parade made a referral to the U.S. Department of Justice involving James S. Crown, who was a long-term member of the Board of Directors of JPMorgan Chase and two predecessor banks, Bank One Corporation (previously Banc One) and First Chicago Corporation. Following mergers between the banks, Crown seamlessly went from First Chicago (1991 to 1996) to Bank One (1996–2004) to JPMorgan Chase (2004 to the present) – a stunning tenure of 32 years for a Board Member dubbed an "Independent Director."
Chinese Military Says US Turning Taiwan Into a 'Powder Keg' With Arms Sales
The Chinese Defense Ministry on Wednesday said the US was turning Taiwan into a "powder keg" in a warning over the Biden administration approving new arms deals for Taiwan worth $440 million.
"China is firmly opposed to US arms sales to Taiwan and has lodged stern representations with the US," said Col. Tan Kefei, spokesman for the Chinese Defense Ministry.
The new arms sales were approved by the State Department last week and are for $332.2 million in 30mm ammo and related equipment and $108 million for spare parts for a variety of military equipment.
California's exodus picks up steam as data shows 111,000 residents - more than 300 per DAY - ditched the West Coast for Texas where homes cost $282,000 less
About 300 Californians moved to Texas each day in 2021 - a staggering 111,000 people, newly released data shows.
That is double the 63,000 that made the same move in 2012, according to a new report from Storage Café, which examined California-Texas migration patterns over nearly a decade.
Of those that moved in 2021, nearly half were millennials, born between 1981 and 1996, and headed to counties around major cities such as Austin, Houston and Dallas.
The study found Californians were lured from their state by a number of factors, including cheaper housing, lower taxes and booming work opportunities thanks to Texas' tech and energy industries.
Fueling that shift was the COVID pandemic which increased the number of people that could work from home, releasing them from traditional commitments that would tie them down to a specific location.
More than 100 companies have moved their headquarters to Texas since 2020, with 40 percent of them coming from California, the study found.
Biden Wants to Give Ukraine Cluster Bombs, Banned by Most Nations.
The Biden regime is reportedly pressing Congress to supply the Ukrainian military with cluster bombs, banned by most countries for their tendency to leave areas covered in unexploded submunitions that kill and maim for years to come. Deputy national security adviser Jon Finer is leading the efforts to soften lawmakers to the idea, as the West struggles to keep up with Ukraine's demands for ordnance.
U.S. allies including Britain, France, Germany, Australia, and Canada have all banned the use of cluster bombs, with 123 states worldwide adopting a United Nations' convention outlawing the "abhorrent weapons". Joe Biden's former boss, Barack Obama, also voted in favor of limiting their use as a Senator.
Meta Launches Data-Harvesting Twitter Clone, Immediately Starts Censoring
Meta claims that over 10 million people had signed up for its Twitter competitor, Threads, in what CEO Mark Zuckerberg framed as a "friendly" alternative to the little blue bird.
"Let's do this. Welcome to Threads," wrote Zuckerberg in his first post on the app, which is a "text-based conversation app" where users can publish posts up to 500 characters long, and allows people to post links, photos and videos.
Threads is directly linked to Meta-owned Instagram, which has over 2 billion users. The Twitter competitor is being rolled out in over 100 countries for iOS and Android.
"The goal is to keep it friendly as it expands. I think it's possible and will ultimately be the key to its success," wrote Zuckerberg in a Wednesday post, casting the service as a more wholesome substitute to Twitter. "That's one reason why Twitter never succeeded as much as I think it should have, and we want to do it differently."
Meanwhile, data privacy and censorship concerns have emerged, with former Twitter owner Jack Dorsey highlighting the vast amount of data collected by Threads.
'Something Just Snapped': Consumers Panic Search "Pawn Shop Near Me"
Cash-strapped Americans are panic-searching "pawn shop near me." The search trend spiked to a record high at the start of July and is an ominous sign the consumer might be pawning items or selling things that were possibly bought during the Covid boom to raise quick money amid the worst inflation storm in a generation.
Let's begin by analyzing Google search data for "pawn shop near me." The search trend started surging in January and exploded higher in the last few months to record highs just days ago.
Interest in the search trend is nationwide. Some of the most interest is in the Deep South.
Google provides related search trends that are all in "breakout" territory, including "pawn shop," "open pawn shop near me," "pawn shop open," and "cash pawn shop near me."
13 Places to Avoid Going When SHTF- Planning a Bug Out Can Seem Overwhelming. but the More You Plan and Prepare in Advance
When it comes to being prepared for a SHTF event, preppers are focused on threats from natural disasters to nuclear wars, EMPs, and devastating cosmic events. The situations that people can focus on and become obsessed with preparing for and unpredictable and vary widely. There's no way that one person or family could be completely prepared for every single type of event. So, most people choose one or several related events they believe are imminent and prepare as best they can for those.
But the less talked about threat that will be overwhelming no matter what the situation is that arises, is population density. For example, according to this map of population density by county shows that roughly two-thirds of the U.S population is located in the Eastern half of the United States. In fact, according to recent reports by the U.S. Census Bureau (2010 data), approximately half the population resided in just 146 counties out of 3000 counties in the United States.
That's right. The biggest threat to your safety and the safety of your family is in fact, other people. They aren't "bad" people out to get you. Some of them would likely give the shirt off the back to help others in normal circumstances. But in a SHTF situation, people just like you who are doing what they need to do to provide for their families can be a threat. Scared, and willing to do anything to get away from immediate danger, large numbers of these people can be the difference between life and death for your family.
WEF: Digital Currency Could Be Used To Block Citizens From Purchasing 'Less Desirable' Items Such as 'Ammunition'
Tolani Senior Professor of Trade Policy at Cornell University Eswar Prasad spoke at the gathering, bluntly stating the "benefits of digital money" include the "programmability" of citizens.
For example, the government could control what products citizens are allowed to purchase with digital currencies.
Prasad said, "The government decides that units of central bank money can be used to purchase some things but not other things that it deems less desirable like say, ammunition or drugs or pornography or things of the sort."
Propaganda-In-Action: How The Media Minimizes mRNA Vaccine Injuries
"In this late phase of the event that started in 2020, governments and their various propaganda platforms cannot hide these adverse events and are now engaged perhaps in what can be called the "cooling the mark out" phase of the pandemic. An article in The New Yorker in 2015 discussed this sociological phenomenon (3). The term was used in a 1952 study by Erving Goffman to describe an important element of con artistry, but it also describes generally any social mechanism that is needed to help people adjust to material losses and humiliation. When a victim is forced to acknowledge he has been conned or ripped off, the perpetrators have to make some effort to help him adjust. Otherwise, he may do something "irrational" such as pursuing violent revenge, media exposure, criminal charges, or a lawsuit. He needs to be reminded that he still has precious things he could lose, so he has to just accept the loss and humiliation and go back to his wife and children. Governments are doing the same now: "Yes, there have been some rare adverse events. Get in line and fill out this form to apply for your legally entitled compensation. We will be with you shortly."
An Amazing Freak Show: Treasury Increases National Debt By Over $850 Billion in Just One Month
A month ago, the fake debt ceiling fight ended and Congress suspended the federal government's borrowing limit for two years. Since the debt ceiling deal, the US Treasury has added a staggering $851 billion to the national debt.
Within a week of the debt ceiling suspension, the national debt cracked $32 trillion and as of June 30, it stood at $32.33 trillion.
I warned that we would see a big jump in the national debt with the passage of any debt ceiling deal. After nearly six months up against its borrowing limit, the federal government had some ground to make up. It needed to replenish cash reserves and unwind the extraordinary measures it took to keep the government running while it couldn't borrow any money. But the pace of borrowing even surprises me
