Rainer Shea at The Ghion Journal - 13 hours ago
We need to reach a point where American left-leaning people by and large refuse to take part in the Democratic Party’s faux-leftist scam. We need to totally free the social justice, economic justice, antiwar, and environmental movements from the traps that the Democrats have set for them, because if we accept the Democrats as the only viable option, these movements will fail. It’s easy to rationalize continued involvement in the Democratic Party.

Ulterior Motive? Ilhan Omar’s Immigration Fraud

Strong evidence suggests that Ilhan Omar married her brother in order to win asylum status under America’s generous “Priority 3 Refugee Family Reunification Program”. While procreating with one’s own bloodlines may be cool in the Muslim world (science-deniers that they are), filial marriage to join family identities was a disqualifier for asylum status under the P3FRP.

There is no substitute for medication; not food, not meditation, not music, not supplements, not anything, except in instances where the issue is not medical. And for some, anxiety is a non-specific symptom for a disease they don't have, it is just concern about an event, and in those instances something like music may work as well as medication, finds a study using music before an anesthesia procedure. read more

Now, however, those same outlets are contributing to the serious crisis building between Washington and Tehran. Iran has responded to Trump’s withdrawal from the 2015 nuclear deal by resuming the stockpiling of low enriched uranium, removing the cap on the level of uranium enrichment and resuming work at the Arak nuclear reactor, while making it very clear that those steps would be immediately reversed if the United States agreed to full compliance.

*"A Bank With 49 Trillion Dollars In Exposure To Derivatives* * Is Melting Down Right In Front Of Our Eyes"* by Michael Snyder "Could it be possible that we are on the verge of the next “Lehman Brothers moment”? Deutsche Bank is the most important bank in all of Europe, it has 49 trillion dollars in exposure to derivatives, and most of the largest “too big to fail banks” in the United States have very deep financial connections to the bank. In other words, the global financial system simply cannot afford for Deutsche Bank to fail, and right now it is literally melting down right in ... more »

Corrupt And Incompetent

Owen Gray at Northern Reflections - 15 hours ago
It's been a tough year for Doug Ford. He used to rail about Kathleen Wynne's government. Bob Hepburn writes: Ford called the former premier’s handling of Ontario’s finances “the biggest government scandal in a generation,” accused her of “shady tricks” and suggested she and others in her government should be jailed for how they had run the province, which led to chants by his supporters during the election to “Lock Her Up.” Now Ontarians are railing against Ford: Now, barely a year into power, it’s Ford and his team who are at the centre of a major scandal and whose mishandling ... more »

sue at Is the BBC biased? - 16 hours ago
This blog has an agenda. We contend that the BBC is biased towards the political left and against the political right. Clive Lewis and his fellow Corbynistas also believe the BBC is biased, but as they see it, the bias swings the other way. To them, anything a fraction to the right of magic Steptoe appears ‘right’ (and wrong.) They say the BBC is the voice of the ‘establishment' and mouthpiece of the government. But their outdated perception of “the establishment” is based on the 1950s, when the subservient lower ranks knew their place and willingly doffed their caps to the gen... more »

It's as if they can't connect the dots

Peter at Bayou Renaissance Man - 16 hours ago
I'm puzzled by the lack of awareness shown by many business media and journalists in their reporting these days. One will report on this aspect of industry, while another reports on that aspect; but they'll seldom make the mental connection (at least in their reporting), to point out that there's a cause-and-effect relationship at work. Case in point: the trucking industry. There are many reports that, after a bumper 2018, it's in the doldrums this year. Here's one example from Business Insider, earlier this year.
