GUS: DEBT HAS BEEN USED BY THE WEST, AKA THE USA, AS A MEANS TO KEEP MANY NATIONS UNDERFOOT. IT'S THE NEW (OLD) FORM OF COLONIALISM THAT IS MANIPULATED BY THE SUPPLIERS OF CASH. ALTHOUGH THERE ARE REGULATIONS IN REGARD TO PERSONNAL DEBT IN MANY COUNTRIES, THERE ARE NO OVERSEERS TO THE WAY, SAY THE IMF OR THE WORLD BANK TWEAK THE DEBTS TO KEEP MANY COUNTRIES IN A STATE OF SLAVERY. MANIPULATION OF CURRENCIES LIKE THOSE MADE BY SOROS AND OTHERS, INCLUDING THE IMF AND THE WORLD BANK SHOULD BE ILLEGAL AS MORE OFTEN THAN NOT THEY DO NOT REFLECT THE TRUE NATURE OF THE MARKETS...

SO HERE WE GO:

The external debt of the world’s low- and middle-income countries at the end of 2021 totaled $9 trillion, more than double the amount a decade ago. Such debt is expected to increase by an additional $1.1 trillion in 2023.

Patrick Lawrence delivered the following remarks, based on his book Time No Longer: Americans After the American Century, before the Committee for the Republic in Washington on December 15. The Committee is a nonpartisan group founded in 2003 that advocates a restoration of the U.S. Constitution, notably the War Powers Act, which assigns Congress, and not the Executive, the power to declare war.

The White House stated on Tuesday that reviving the nuclear deal with Iran is “not our focus right now,” after an unconfirmed video of US President Joe Biden calling the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) “dead” was put online. 

“There is no progress happening with respect to the Iran deal now. We don't anticipate any progress anytime in the near future. That's just not our focus,” National Security Council spokesman John Kirby told reporters on a briefing call, when asked about the video.

Biden apparently made the admission after a campaign rally last month in California. In the short video, posted on Twitter by user Damon Maghsoudi and reported by Axios on Tuesday, a woman asks Biden to announce that the JCPOA is dead.

Twitter owner and CEO Elon Musk is looking for a new chief executive to lead the company after the platform’s users voted for him to resign, CNBC reported on Tuesday, citing its sources.

People familiar with the matter told the media outlet that Musk’s search for a new CEO has been ongoing and began before the Twitter poll.

On Sunday, the billionaire posted an informal poll asking Twitter users if he should step down as head of the company. Warning the audience to “be careful what you wish, as you might get it,” Musk said he would abide by the results of the poll. The businessman also noted that nobody to replace him had been found yet.

AND HERE I WAS THINKING THAT THE OLD POLITICAL DIVISION BETWEEN LEFT AND RIGHT WAS KAPUT. THE LEFT (IN AMERICA AND IN EUROPE) PRESENTLY SUPPORTS THE NAZI ZELENSKY UNDER FALSE PRETENCES — BECAUSE OF THEIR WHITE HATE OF PUTIN WHO'S TRYING TO SAVE RUSSIA FROM THE NATO DEMOLITION DERBY.

THE LEFT IN THE UK WENT TO WAR UNDER FALSE PRETENCES WITH THE RIGHT OF THE USA (BLAIR JOINING BUSH AND HOWARD — OUR LITTLE LIAR/WARMONGER). OVERALL, POLITICS IN THE WEST HAVE HEAVILY LEANED TO THE RIGHT, DESPITE SOME COUNTRIES BEING "GREEN", "OF THE LEFT", IN THEIR NON-PRACTICAL APPLICATION: THE RIGHTS OF WORKERS HAVE BEEN DECIMATED, THE BOURGEOISIE THINKS IT HAS JOINED THE ELITE, WHILE THE ELITE THAT CONTROLS (NO-ONE REALLY CONTROLS THIS) THE "ECONOMIES" STEALS FROM EVERYONE.

One after another, statistical surveys on the level of French pupils confirm the appalling deterioration of education in the country. Whether we compare today's French pupils to those of yesterday (like the last survey on spelling in CM2) or whether we compare them to pupils from other countries, as in the PISA statistics [the OECD's Programme for International Student Assessment. It measures 15-year-olds' ability to read, process mathematics and science], for example, all stats point in the same dismal direction.

IN ORDER TO UNDERSTAND THE STUPIDITY OF THE WESTERN LEADERS AND THE IDIOCY OF THEIR ZELENSKY NAZI PUPPET, WE NEED TO EXPLORE WHAT THE WEST DEPLORES: THE FRONT LINES OR "MEAT GRINDER" WHERE THE "UKRAINIAN" ARMY, THE "UKRO-ANTLANTICIST" ENABLER (*) IS LOOSING "THE WAR".... AND SADLY, CIVILIANS GET CAUGHT IN THE CROSS-FIRE. THIS IS A BLOG FROM THE RUSSIAN PERSPECTIVE (RUSSIAN ADVANCES IN ORANGE)....

GUS DOES NOT BELIEVE IN GOD. BUT GUS THINKS THAT ANYTHING THAT IS ALIVE SHOULD NOT BE PATENTED. ESPECIALLY BY "AMERICA". THE "NEW" mRNA VACCINE IS A BIT OF AN ARTIFICIAL BASTARD THAT DOES NOT WORK EFFICIENTLY. MEANWHILE THE MEDIA WAS PUSHED TO EXTOLD THE VIRTUES OF THIS VACCINE AND NOTHING ELSE. CONSPIRACY?

AS SHOWN IN THE ARTICLE ABOVE, THE FIRST PATENT ON GENE MANIPULATION WAS PLACED IN 1972 AND ACCEPTED BY THE US SUPREME COURT IN 1980 — PLACING "LIFE" IN PRIVATE HANDS, LIKE EVERYTHING ELSE IN THE USA....

GENETIC MANIPULATION WAS BORN. GOD DIED....

The jungle of the US media kingdom appears to be divided between two powerful entities – the pro-establishment behemoth often referred to as the mainstream media, and Tucker Carlson. And against all odds, Carlson appears to be winning.

It would be difficult to name a single person, aside from the rabble-rouser Donald J. Trump, who is more disgusting and/or terrifying (depending on who you ask) for the establishment media than Fox News host Tucker Carlson. This one man is considered such a threat that the New York Times in May spent a boatload of ink to assassinate his character in a 20,000-word hit piece. Ironically, the article backfired as it laid bare the reasons Americans no longer trust the ‘legacy media’.

WHERE'S SUPERMAN WHEN YOU NEED HIM?

THE GUY ON THE LEFT IS SUPERMAN DISGUISED AS CLARK KENT. THE MAN ON THE RIGHT IS A WEAPON MANUFACTURER, EMIL MORWELL, WHO PAYS BRIBES TO A CONGRESSMAN, TO GET LUCRATIVE ARMAMENT CONTRACTS FROM THE US GOVERNMENT. ANYTHING NEW?

THIS STORY WAS FIRST PUBLISHED IN 1939, IT SEEMS....

THUS BY SHEER CONSTRUCT OF THE STORY, EMIL, TRYING TO ESCAPE SUPERMAN AFTER A FEW ENCOUNTERS, ENLISTS IN THE ARMY HOPING TO ESCAPE AT THE FIRST OPPORTUNITY INCOGNITO... BUT KENT IS ON HIS TRAIL AND ASKS QUESTIONS....

THE ANSWER IS SIMPLE: MEN ARE CHEAP....

IF ONE FOLLOWS THE VARIOUS SUPERMAN EPISODES, ONE CAN SEE THE PROPAGANDA, WITHIN THE ADVENTURES, PUSHED BY THE MEDIA PROPRIETORS WHO LAUD WAR BECAUSE "WAR IS PROFITABLE"....

December 16, 2022, is the fifteenth anniversary of the modern Tea Party. That fact will come as a surprise to many readers who take the mainstream narrative about the Tea Party at face value. The mainstream account begins on February 19, 2009, when Rick Santelli, live on CNBC from the trading floor of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME), declared a rebellion against "socialism" one month into the Obama administration.

Dec. 8 marked the 35th anniversary of the signing of the intermediate nuclear forces (INF) treaty. This landmark arms control event was the byproduct of years of hard-nose negotiations capped off by the political courage of U.S. President Ronald Reagan and Soviet General Secretary Mikhail Gorbachev who together signed the treaty and oversaw its ratification by their respective legislatures. 

The first inspectors went to work on July 1, 1988. I was fortunate to count myself among them.

In August 2019, former President Donald Trump withdrew the U.S. from the INF treaty; Russia followed shortly thereafter, and this foundational arms control agreement was no more.

Former House Speaker John Boehner paid a tearful tribute to Nancy Pelosi on Wednesday at the unveiling of her official portrait in the U.S. Capitol.

Boehner, R-Ohio, who had a reputation for frequently tearing up when he was speaker, offered warm words for Pelosi, D-Calif., the outgoing speaker, who has often been demonized by GOP lawmakers.

"You’ve been incredibly effective as the leader of your caucus. The younger generation today has a saying: 'Game recognizes game.' The fact of the matter is no other speaker of the House in the modern era — Republican or Democrat — has wielded the gavel with such authority or with such consistent results," Boehner said, calling Pelosi "one tough cookie."

Harm and Dörte Peters, the quintessential couple, are on vacation in Asia. But wherever they are, they can't get away from the political upheaval back home. With irony and wit, Grass takes aim at capitalism, communism, religion — even reproduction: the young couple’s agonise over whether to have a child in the face of a population explosion and the threat of nuclear war…. nothing escapes unscathed. 

TO THE TWO MAJOR THREATS MENTIONED ABOVE, SINCE THEN, WE HAVE ADDED GLOBAL WARMING...
