Frontline Doctors Return to Washington D.C. to Dispel COVID Myths and to Offer Truth and Hope
Brian-Admin, Health Impact News - 6 hours ago
America's Frontline Doctors returned to Washington D.C. this week for their second White Coat Summit. Their Press Conference on the stops of the Supreme Court back in July quickly went viral, and was promptly deleted and censored by Big Tech platforms such as Facebook and Google's Youtube. Health Impact News grabbed a copy before they were deleted, and published it on our Bitchute channel, where it currently has over 190,000 views. They were back in even greater numbers this week, again giving an initial Press Conference in front of the Supreme Court. Dr. Simone Gold, the founder of...

ED Noor: One of my takeaways from this piece is that Kamala Harris with her record of law enforcement is, in the eyes of these people, is the perfect match for Biden. By Jon Rappoport Oct*20* The only thing worse than Trump is Biden I’m not talking about the breaking Hunter Biden scandal. I’m talking about the response to the fake pandemic. Trump bought the big lie: a computer projection claiming 2 million COVID deaths would occur in the US. This Neil Ferguson projection was funded by Bill Gates.

Tier and Loathing in Manchester
Phil, All That Is Solid ... - 6 hours ago
Critical but unconditional support to Andy Burnham! The Tory treatment of Manchester by forcing the city into Tier Three without engaging with local leaders in good faith, withholding funds to adequately compensate workers and now refusing to deal with the Mayor in future is grotesque. The sticking point saw local leaders ask for £65m because, not unreasonably, forcing workers onto two-thirds of their salary is less generous than furlough and will see them face significant hardship, especially if they're low paid. As for businesses, they too can whistle. The anger this provokes mus...

I n 1992 R.

*Ethen Kim Lieser* *economy, Americas* [image: https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?id=tag%3Areuters.com%2C2020%3Anewsml_RC2ULJ9D0YN7&share=true] Will the economy get enough of a holiday-boost? A new survey by the consulting firm Deloitte is forecasting that shoppers will visit fewer stores than ever this upcoming holiday season. The data is pointing toward consumers visiting just 5.2 retail stores on average, according to the firm’s annual holiday survey that polled more than 4,000 individuals in mid-September. That figure is noticeably down from last year when it was seven. Wit...
Pandemiconomics: Why the Coronavirus Is Driving the Next Fiscal Policy Problem
Desmond Lachman, The National Interest - 5 hours ago
*Desmond Lachman* *economy, Americas* [image: Reuters] The world’s central banks seem to be running out of road to provide the economy with further monetary policy support. The International Monetary Fund is doing the world a great service by advocating to its membership the need for strong fiscal policy support at a time that the coronavirus pandemic is plunging the world economy into its worst economic recession in the past ninety years. However, it is doing the United States a great disservice by downplaying the risks that too cavalier an attitude towards budget policy looseni...
How the Biggest Battleship Ever Built Committed Suicide
Warfare History Network, The National Interest - 6 hours ago
*Warfare History Network* *History, Asia* The Japanese battleship Yamato became 'one for the pelicans' as U.S. Navy planes pummeled the giant in the East China Sea. *Key Point*: The hopeless excursion by the Japanese task force ended with as many as 3,750 of its crews dead. In the late afternoon of April 6, 1945, five days after American GIs and leathernecks scrambled onto an Okinawa beach a scant 500 miles from Japan, two U.S. submarines, *Hackleback* and *Threadin*, lurking around the Bungo Suido exit from the Inland Sea, observed the passage of 10 Japanese warships, including...
China Feels It No Longer Needs the Foreign Media—But It Still Can’t Hide
Keith B. Richburg, The National Interest - 6 hours ago
*Keith B. Richburg* *Society, Asia* China’s leaders have always bristled at unfavourable or critical coverage. After declaring a resounding victory against the Covid-19 pandemic, a newly confident China so far this year has tested new ballistic missiles, threatened Taiwan by ignoring the median line in the Taiwan Strait, expanded its erasure of Muslim Uyghur culture in Xinjiang, and extended its evisceration of Hong Kong’s autonomy and freedoms. At the same time, China has shown a new aggressiveness in trying to curtail the activities of the foreign reporters in the country, and ...
General William C. Westmoreland: A Profile in Leadership (Not Just Vietnam)
Warfare History Network, The National Interest - 6 hours ago
*Warfare History Network* *History, Americas* Westmoreland was a stalwart fighter and patriot through three separate wars. *Key Point*: Westmoreland worked to deter war, but he was prepared to fight in war, and he did so in three of them. In 1989, this writer had occasion to interview four-star General William Childs Westmoreland, now 86, formerly U.S. military commander in South Vietnam and at the time of the interview a retired Chief of Staff of the Army.

A Look at Famous Flies Throughout Art
Sally Hickson, The National Interest - 6 hours ago
*Sally Hickson* *Art, World* [image: Reuters] In portraits made in Renaissance Europe, the presence of a fly symbolizes the transience of human life (buzzbuzzpfft!). After this week’s vice-presidential debate in the United States, the fly that landed on Vice-President Mike Pence’s head was more of a sensation than the details of the debate — at least on social media. The fly has already been immortalized as a Biden/Harris fly swatter (sorry, they’re all sold out) and sparked a Halloween costume. In many circumstances, flies are unremarkable. That’s probably why a French word for...

With the exception of a few passing references during the vice presidential debate on October 8 and an embarrassing spectacle between Donald Trump and Joe Biden about who is and isn’t a stooge of the Chinese Communist Party, foreign policy has gotten the short end of the stick this election cycle.

*How to Stop Trump from Stealing the Election*Trump is likely to claim that mail-in ballots, made necessary by the pandemic, are rife with “fraud like you’ve never seen,” as he alleged during his debate with Joe Biden – although it’s been shown that Americans are more likely to be struck by lightning than commit voter fraud. So we should expect him to dispute election results in any Republican-led state he loses by a small margin – such as Arizona, Florida, Michigan, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, or Wisconsin.
