They have been laying off tranches of folks for a while. Seems like there can’t be anyone left. What use were all those folks that are gone now if their product is the same low quality?

[MSN - NYPost] Mayor Eric Adams declared the Big Apple a has-bin city Monday; unveiling its first official individual trash container that will soon be required for all small residential buildings, including brownstones.
Structures with one to nine residential units will have to put their trash into any container starting Nov. 12, Adams said. Then within seven months, by June 1, 2026, those buildings will have to pay for and use the new roughly $50 lidded, rolling cans, dubbed the NYC Bin.
------------------------- The Sanitation Union had blocked this for all those decades. Atlanta GA adopted the 18 gallon bin standard in the early 1970s and by 2012 had augmented that with 96 gallon cart/bins for 4 plexes and so on.

"We're sorry. The Outback is full. Have you tried Afghanistan? I understand they have lots of room."
[Breitbart] For the second time in as many weeks Australia has turned back a boatload of illegal migrants, forcing the intended asylum seekers to return to their port of departure in Indonesia.
The group of 44 men has since landed on a remote Indonesian island after Australian authorities gave them speedboats equipped with supplies and told them to depart, Sky News reports.
The outlet details that according to local authorities, the group of 36 Bangladeshi and eight Rohingya were intercepted while trying to reach Australia from West Java’s southern coast but were intercepted by the Australian Broder Force (ABF).
They were detained at sea in their vessel for 18 days and not allowed to land before being provided with two modern speed boats, each equipped with just enough fuel, food and water for 22 people and a compass bearing to sail back to Indonesia’s southernmost island located some 286km from Australia’s Ashmore Reef.

A Frenchman who sneaks off at dawn
From his lover in Farges-Allichamps,
By the time I'd reach Phoenix --
Please hand him a Kleenex --
Is clear out of France, le cochon.

not well traveled don't grasp the size of the US.
Yeah… Driving back to Brussels from Frankfurt after a last-minute visit’n’souvenirs trip with the trailing daughters (then ages six and four) before we packed up the house for the unexpected transfer back to America, I missed the exit (or maybe took the wrong exit, I no longer remember), and ended up driving through the Netherlands. The extra country added an entire twenty minutes to the trip — the sleeping tds never even noticed.

When Government & businesses jack up the prices and the public disposable income fails to keep pace, the public buys less. In this LSD Coup, inflation really is floating well above 21+% and COLA's of < 4% have failed to honestly address basic needs of those on fixed incomes.

[Regnum] Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban will meet with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on the sidelines of the North Atlantic Alliance summit in Washington. This was announced by Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto.
"In the past few days, we have been moving within the framework of the peace mission. This will continue today, a meeting will take place between the Prime Minister of Hungary and the President of Turkey," the diplomat wrote on his Facebook page (owned by Meta, a company recognized as extremist and banned in the Russian Federation).
He specified that Orban and Erdogan will meet on Tuesday, July 9, on the sidelines of the NATO summit.
According to Peter Szijjarto, the goal of the Hungarian side within the framework of its peace mission is to assess the possibilities of an early ceasefire and create conditions for the resumption of peace negotiations.
As reported by the Regnum news agency, on July 5, negotiations between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Prime Minister Viktor Orban took place in Moscow. Following the negotiations, the Hungarian politician called ensuring peace in Europe the main task of his country during its presidency of the EU Council. He explained that the positions of Moscow and Kiev on the settlement of the conflict differ greatly, and many steps must be taken to achieve peace. The head of the Hungarian government called this visit to Russia one of the stages of the peace mission.
As reported by the German news agency DPA, after his visit to Russia, Viktor Orban appealed to the European Union to take the initiative to "promote" a ceasefire in the Ukrainian conflict zone. According to Orban, after his talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin, the chances for such a truce and the start of peace talks have become higher.
The press secretary of the Russian president, Dmitry Peskov, stated: Viktor Orban has shown political will for dialogue, which Moscow perceives extremely positively.
On July 8, the Hungarian Prime Minister held a meeting with the Chairman of the People's Republic of China Xi Jinping. Later, the head of the Hungarian government announced that his next visit would be to Washington.
As Denis Denisov, Director of the Institute of Peacekeeping Initiatives and Conflictology and expert at the Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation, pointed out in an interview with Regnum News Agency, there is currently no reason to believe that Viktor Orban's peace mission will significantly change the situation in resolving the conflict in Ukraine. One of the reasons, the political scientist said, is the fact that Hungary, since the beginning of Russia's special military operation, has repeatedly expressed solidarity with its NATO and EU partners on the issue of expanding anti-Russian sanctions.

[Regnum] The US national debt has reached a critical point of $35 trillion, making it virtually impossible to continue borrowing. This was stated by Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell at the European Central Bank forum in Sintra.
"The path we are taking is unacceptable, there is no doubt about that. We need to do something, and it is better to do it sooner than later," Gazeta.Ru quoted him as saying.
It is noted that experts are confident that the US has no alternative ways to cover budget expenditures and deficits, so the national debt will continue to grow.
Earlier, analysts William Ruger and Thomas Savage suggested in an article for the American magazine The National Interest that an increase in budget expenditures and government debt could lead to serious problems in the US economy, which would directly affect the country's defense capability.
As Yuri Tverdokhleb, Associate Professor of the Faculty of Finance and Banking at RANEPA, noted to a Regnum correspondent, the world has reached a stalemate with the US national debt. According to the expert, Joe Biden's rule has led to the debt reaching an unprecedented level and continuing to grow against the backdrop of a recession and deterioration of all other macroeconomic indicators. Biden and his entourage, on the contrary, propose increasing the tax burden, he explained.
According to him, the sanctions pressure that the US is exerting on countries that are not to their liking, such as Russia, China and others, is pushing these countries to decide to return to the initial position. Then the US will really collapse. And Washington understands this, which is why they are pursuing such an aggressive policy and trying to distract public attention from these problems. The dependence of the Russian economy on the dollar is decreasing, and it is decreasing qualitatively and in large volumes, the economist emphasized.
Russian President Vladimir Putin said on June 7 that the American economy is not backed by anything, and that the United States conditionally owes the world economy $54.3 trillion. The head of state said that the Bretton Woods system, which was based on the gold equivalent, had long since died.
At the beginning of the year, the US Congressional Budget Office published a report according to which by the end of 2034, the US national debt is expected to grow continuously and reach a historical anti-record. It is specified that by the end of 2024, the US national debt will amount to 99% of GDP, and by the end of 2034, it will reach 116% of GDP. This will be the highest level ever recorded.
[Epoch Times] "CDC recommends everyone ages 6 months and older receive an updated 2024-2025 COVID-19 vaccine to protect against the potentially serious outcomes of COVID-19 this fall and winter whether or not they have ever previously been vaccinated with a COVID-19 vaccine," the agency said in a statement.
The COVID-19 vaccines now available, which are also broadly recommended, target the XBB.1.5 strain. But observational data indicate they provide short-lived protection against COVID-19 infection and hospitalization.
U.S. Food and Drug Administration officials, acting on advice from their advisers, recently directed vaccine manufacturers to produce COVID-19 vaccines with updated formulations. Updated vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna will target the KP.2 variant, while an updated shot from Novavax will target the JN.1 variant. The updated formulations are expected to be available in September. So I should get both, to cover all the known variants? Or all three?
CDC advisers unanimously advised the CDC to recommend the forthcoming vaccines to virtually all Americans, even though no clinical efficacy or safety data are available for them. See what happens when you let Doctor Science retire?
Data from animal testing suggest that the vaccines trigger higher levels of antibodies than the shots currently available, manufacturers said previously.
CDC advisers considered a risk-based recommendation that would only say certain groups receive one of the vaccines but ultimately opted for what is known as a universal recommendation.

How many new "potential" Health scares have we been treated to so far, since the 2020 election year?
4 or 5 and mostly around Election run-up.
So far, the only real serious one, is the Clot Shot itself. Which, finally even the CDC and other agencies have had to admit, has serious, life-impacting results for certain demographics.
With some data releases indicating adverse reaction results said to be worse than having the C-19 itself.
BTW: Speaking with extended family in P.R.
They are seeing a raise in C-19/24 cases, but far more mild in nature, than the original C-19 wave.

The CDC has zero credibility with me. I will not be 're-vaccinated'. Moreover, none of these are actual vaccines.

I will consider their words after they put their money where their mouth is by proving it safe. They will receive hourly covid vaccinations every day for a year. If they survive, I will consider it. Then I'll say F*** NO!
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
