-Lurid Crime Tales-
DoJ accuses Steve Bannon of 'misleading and frivolous' attempts to turn his prosecution for refusing to testify before January 6 committee into a 'public spectacle'
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Steve Bannon on November 17 pleaded not guilty to criminal charges filed after he defied a subpoena issued by a congressional panel

  • Bannon, the first person to face charges in connection with the House probe, handed himself in to the FBI on Monday after last week being indicted

  • He claims communications with the former president are covered by 'executive privilege' and that the investigation is politically motivated

  • Prosecutors for the DoJ accused Bannon's defense team - led by Evan Corcoran - of stalling their efforts to reach an evidence-sharing agreement

  • Instead, according to the Justice Department, Bannon's lawyers used a public court filing to complain about the case

Where the 💩 is the justice?

Bannon is a private citizen and it is a 'public case' ... your problem is? Other than the Kafkaesque nature of your petulance.

They have to clean the videos up a little and CG doctoring takes a little time still, since the CCP is having "some" issues 😎

‘More money than God:' Chinese titan lavished Hunter Biden with 3-carat gem, offer of $30 million
[NYPOST] The Biden family offered their services to a huge, Chinese-government-linked energy consortium to expand its business around the world. How do we know? Because of hundreds of emails documenting the deal found on Hunter Biden
...son of President Joe: cashiered from the Navy, a crackhead, wheeler dealer, leg humper, horn dog, and general all around ne'er do well. We're supposed to feel sorry for him...
’s laptop, left in a Delaware repair shop in April 2019. In her new book, “Laptop from Hell,” New York Post columnist Miranda Devine tells the tale:

James Gilliar, a wiry, 56-year-old British ex-SAS officer, got to know Ye Jianming, the 40-year-old chairman of CEFC, when they were both working in the Czech Republic.

CEFC was a Chinese conglomerate, one of the largest energy companies in the world.

Ye’s task at was to spend $1.5 billion as quickly as possible to ensure the Czech Republic would become China’s “Gateway to the European Union,” a priority of President Xi.

To that end, Ye bought everything from a football team and a brewery to an airline, before being named “special economic advisor” to Czech President Milos Zeman.

Now he was looking for an influential partner to help with acquisitions in other locations around the world that had strategic significance for the Chinese state.

Gilliar had an idea who could help: The Biden family.

Gilliar connected with Hunter Biden through trusted Biden family friend Rob Walker, a former Clinton administration official whose wife, Betsy Massey Walker, had been Jill Biden’s assistant when she was Second Lady.

#1  If the Corporation derives more than 51% of its profit through foreign enterprise, effectively it is no longer a USA company; therefore, it must be divided into US and Foreign equivalents, all foreign interests abide by the laws of foreign enterprise laws dba USA.

Otherwise, recall your foreign interests and abide by USA law. If done conservatively, profits generally increase, as the political element decrease in importance to the entire enterprise.

So, get out of the Political Business and return to the Stockholder Profit Business.

Execute with extreme prejudice this "Biden Mob Activity" and get "The Gomba Boss" thrown out of Office. Jill the Shill needs to go too.

Literally every accusation these disgusting criminals made against Trump was false -- and actually true of their own behavior.

Government Corruption
Federal taxpayers fund program paying students $5k to receive training in critical race theory
[Just The News] Federal grant records show the U.S. Department of Education has awarded millions of taxpayer dollars to fund critical race theory training for future educators at several colleges across the country.

In 2016 under the Obama administration, the federal government awarded its first five-year grant of $1,116,895 to North Carolina Central University (NCCU) for "training" college students in critical race theory.

The program is called "The Research Institute for Scholars of Equity," or RISE. RISE promises to produce "a cadre of scholars who value and advance equity." As part of the program, these students receive a $5,000 stipend, money for food and housing, and a travel allowance. According to promotional materials and grant documents, RISE students are trained to use critical race theory as a means of evaluating teacher quality, among other things.

NCCU partnered with the University of North Carolina, Wilmington on the project, which provided one-year fellowships to about 60 students.

While some of the students will likely go on to be teachers, the program also puts an emphasis on training students with "research careers that will inform policy and practice in education" on a broader scale, helping propel critical race theory conversations nationwide.

Outrageous! RISE should be funded through the same mechanisms as BLM and Antifa. Oh WAIT !

FDA wants to regulate vegetables, spices and minerals!
[Twitter]
So a prescription for your next bagel, pie or slice of ginger? NUTS! Note all Organic anything is on the list too! Perhaps a prescription for each meal from the government or you starve?

#1  Disband the FDA, recent evidence on Clot Shot Reporting shows they are corrupt, cut the head of the snake off before it gets a chance to procreate, or gather more responsibilities to corrupt.

#8  This is actually about what licensed pharmacists can use to mix medications:

https://www.fda.gov/drugs/human-drug-compounding/bulk-drug-substances-used-compounding-under-section-503a-fdc-act

The biggest section of the list, which seems to be drawing the panic, are "unsupported" -- which just means the FDA isn't satisfied there's a benefit to including them in compound medicines. It's not about requiring prescriptions for access to any of them.

Twitter is a cesspit. This is a fine example of the chunks you get out of a cesspit.

#10  But, why would they do this?

For example, searching ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/ you can identify a great deal of scientific information about:

OTC ANTI-SPIKE AND ANTI-COVID-19 PHYTOCHEMICALS & NUTRACEUTICALS, AS WELL AS WAYS TO REPAIR COVID-19 SPIKE DAMAGE.

Competent, peer-reviewed research (with good indicia of reliability & validity) exists for:

🔷Viral Envelope Disruption
🔷Viral Spike Disruption
🔷Fusion Inhibitors
🔷Entry Inhibitors
🔷RdRp & Replication Inhibitors
🔷Immunomodulators
🔷Indistinct Antivirals & Support
🔷Bradykinin Reduction
🔷Porphyrin Reduction
🔷Metabolic Homeostasis Support & Restoration
🔷Cardiovascular Support

Some of us would be dead without these resources. What gives?
