[Just The News] The number of white people in the United States has dropped for the first time since 1790, according to new data from the 2020 Census.
Data from the 2020 count of people living in America shows that the country has become substantially more ethnically diverse, particularly in the under-18 category. Additionally, the country's population grew 7.4% in the last ten years, a slower rate than any decade since the 1930s.
The numbers indicate that growth in the American population for the last decade has been driven by minority populations. While whites still make up a little less than 58% of the American population, that figure dropped below 60% for the first time since the census-taking began.
The share of the white population was 63.7% in 2010, and is now 57.8%, the lowest on record. The actual number of non-Hispanic whites fell as well, shrinking from 196 million in 2010 to 191 million in 2020.
The director of race, ethnicity and outreach — Nicholas Jones — at the Population Division of the Census Bureau said, "The U.S. population is much more multiracial and much more racially and ethnically diverse than we measured in the past."
In more than half of American counties, more people died than were born during the last decade. Small counties — with populations of fewer than 50,000 — on average, lost population. Counties with populations greater than 100,000 mostly added to their numbers.

...Mormons don't seem to have a problem with keeping their numbers up. I guess if you are so in love with European socialism, it figures your population will follow the trend.

More Caucasians are calling themselves multi-racial. More who are multi-racial are picking a non-white identity. So I have to wonder how much has really changed.
Nearly 1 in 4 Americans now identify themselves as either Hispanic or Asian. The Black population grew by 6 percent, an increase that represented about a tenth of the country’s growth. Americans who identified as non-Hispanic and more than one race rose the fastest, jumping to 13.5 million from 6 million.
And in what appears to be a big shift in how Hispanics think of their racial identity, one third of Hispanics reported being more than one race, up from just 6 percent in 2010. That means that Hispanics are now nearly twice is likely to identify as multiracial than as white.
The New York Times article ended as follows:
Correction: Aug. 12, 2021
An earlier version of this article incorrectly reported the rate of decline of the non-Hispanic white population since 2010. It was 2.6 percent, not 8.6 percent.

The fastest way to end white supremacy would be for all so-called "white" people to identify as black. When 0% of Americans are white, utopia will come to pass.

[FoxNews] Nebraska Gov. Pete Ricketts told Fox News on Friday that he would continue fighting critical race theory (CRT) despite the state university's decision to reject a resolution designed to combat the contentious ideology.
His comments came amid an ongoing controversy over the issue, which has prompted input from professors and students at the University of Nebraska. On Friday afternoon, the Board of Regents voted 5-3 to reject the anti-CRT measure, which opposed the "imposition" of the ideology in curriculum.
"While the board didn't pass the resolution, I'm committed to continuing the fight to keep [CRT] from being imposed upon Nebraska schools or institutions of higher education," Ricketts said.
Does not the state governor appoint the regents for the state universities? This seems an ideal time for Governor Ricketts to share the spoils with the more erudite among his supporters.
Jim Pillen, the regent and GOP gubernatorial candidate who introduced the resolution, similarly said he wouldn't stop fighting what he and others see as a divisive influence on education.
"I'm disappointed in today’s outcome, but this fight is not over," Pillen said in a statement provided to Fox News. "The issue isn't going away. I will continue to oppose Critical Race Theory being imposed on students in higher education, and it will be a priority to ban it from Nebraska’s K-12 schools as governor."
Opponents argued that the resolution would impede academic freedom and avoid teaching hard truths about race relations. But both sides expressed fear that faculty would be forced one way or another on the issue.
After the United College Athlete Advocates, the American Association of University Professors and the faculty senate criticized the measure, the university's president and chancellors released a statement expressing "concerns."
"As we have shared with Regent Pillen, we have significant concerns about the resolution and how it would be interpreted by the faculty, staff and students we hope to recruit and retain," the statement read. "We will continue to work together and with the Board to vigorously protect and defend academic freedom at the University of Nebraska."
Pillen's resolution read, in part: "Whereas we oppose discrimination in any form and Whereas Critical Race Theory does not promote inclusive and honest dialogue and education on campus and Whereas Critical Race Theory proponents seek to silence opposing views and disparage important American ideals. Be it resolved that the Regents of the University of Nebraska oppose any imposition of Critical Race Theory in curriculum."
[NYPOST] He was struggling to "pea." It gets worse.
A randy Michigan man redefined "c-block" after he got six kidney beans lodged in his pea pea urethra during a bizarro attempt at sexual gratification. Kind of a "pee shooter."
The unnamed 30-year-old patient had reportedly wanted to "express the beans while whacking his pud during ejaculation," according to the wince-worthy report published in the journal Urology Case Funnies Reports. "Heh heh! Hey Bob! You seen this one?"
So the sexual nut bag eccentric shoved six kidney beans down his dong in his urethra and attempted to shoot them off expel them via blowing his wad "natural emission." However, facts are stubborn; statistics are more pliable... his pea shooter jammed during the process, prompting him to try to remove them with tweezers. "C'mere, y'little bean boogers! Ow!"
When that failed, he reported to the hospital, where he informed doctors that he was struggling to "pea." "Ummm... Honey? Im going out for a couple hours!"
"Not again? Those were for dinner, dammit!"
The backed-up bean stalker also admitted it wasn’t his "first time participating in this practice, although he never attempted to utilize this many beans." "You thought I wasn't gonna notice again, didn't you?"
A subsequent CT scan confirmed that the poor soul harbored six beans in his schlong urethra, which measured 15 mm by 7 mm each. Four were located between the urethral entrance and the urine pouch, while another had strayed all the way into the bladder. "I SAID YOU'VE GOT A BEAN IN YER BLADDER!"
"YOU'LL HAVE TO SPEAK UP! I'VE GOT A BANANA IN MY EAR!"
After initially failing to extract the urethral infiltrators, medics managed to remove one legume by applying numbing cream to the area and then squeezing the penile passageway, the researchers reported. "Feel pretty numb now?"
"I've felt number..."
"Does that hurt?"
"ARGH!"
"Hey! How about some warning next time?"
"Sorry, nurse. Here comes another one!"
"AAARRGGGHHH!"
They eradicated the rest of the beans the following day via a complex process that involved holding the man’s urinary entrance open and inserting a great honking tube through which they passed surgical implements. "Pliers... hammer... chisel... suction... thermite... detonator..."
They then plucked out the taco toppers with a tweezer-like tool and placed them in a basket. "Clear!... KERPOW!... whimper..."
Despite the highly invasive procedure, the frijole fetishist suffered "minimal" trauma to his urethra and was discharged the following day. "I'm here to pick up..."
[whimper]
"... him."
*Wipes tears* I’m sure that if they read this, the rabbis would advise the following prayer: Blessed art thou, O Lord our God, Ruler of the universe, who hast made me [female and] not as creative as Mr. Bean.

[REGNUM] In the foreseeable future, the unification of such parties as "Fair Russia - Patriots - For Truth" (SR) and the Communist Party of the Russian Federation is out of the question, said candidate for the State Duma from Fair Russia, Alexander Tarnavsky at a round table in Moscow.
Tarnavsky explained his position by the fact that such associations imply the absorption of a stronger party by a weaker one. Now, neither Fair Russia, nor the Communist Party of the Russian Federation are so weak as to be swallowed up by one another.
"I think that in the near future it is impossible. And for obvious reasons. Everyone wants to unite for themselves. I am friends with many representatives of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation. There are different teams. Ideologically, it is possible to expand, but in such a way that one swallows up the other, it is impossible that way. The Communist Party of the Russian Federation has its own ideology, respectfully speaking, we will not grow together. And this will not be possible in the near future," Tarnavsky said.
At the same time, according to the leader of A Just Russia - For the Truth, Sergei Mironov, the union of the SR and the Communist Party of the Russian Federation would help to defend the interests of citizens more successfully, but it is impossible under the current leadership of the Communist Party.
Earlier, Zakhar Prilepin, the co-chairman of A Just Russia - For Truth, made a proposal to integrate the left-wing forces.
The ballot paper for voting in the federal electoral district will include the LDPR, "Communists of Russia", "Fair Russia - Patriots - For Truth", the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, "Civic Platform", the Russian Party of Freedom and Justice (RPSS), "Rodina", "Greens" , Green Alternative, Party of Pensioners, Party of Growth, Yabloko, New People and United Russia.

[Breitbart] Communist China partly shut down one of the world’s busiest ports “indefinitely” on Wednesday after one worker tested positive for Chinese coronavirus.
A 34-year-old employee at the Meishan Terminal of China’s Ningbo-Zhoushan Port reportedly tested positive for the Indian “delta” variant of the Chinese coronavirus and has an asymptomatic infection. The infected person supposedly contracted the virus after receiving two doses of the Sinovac vaccine, which is widely considered the least-effective Chinese coronavirus vaccine currently in global circulation. The Chinese-made vaccine tested at 50.38 percent efficacy when first introduced into the market, meeting the threshold traditionally considered necessary to be approved by less than a percentage point.
While the rest of the Ningbo port remains in operation, the closed terminal is considered “critical” in servicing North America and Europe, the South China Morning Post reported. Analysts said the closure could cause serious delays around the upcoming holidays and could further increase global inflation. Oh noes! No plastic Christmas crap this year?
“While the congestion is rampant around major global ports, currently all attention is on China because its ports are so large in scale, and exports starting from there would impact the overall global supply chain,” said Akhil Nair, vice-president of global carrier management and ocean strategy at Seko Logistics.
“They will divert as many services as possible to other Ningbo terminals, but there is still the expectation that congestion will start to form,” he said. “The average wait time is expected to increase back to what we saw in Yantian, which was seven to nine days,” referring to the Shenzhen’s Yantian port shutdown in May and June over coronavirus.
Meishan handled 20 percent of the total container throughput at the port in 2020, according to official statistics reported by the Post. Last year, it was one of the busiest terminals, handling 5,440,400 TEUs of container throughput.
Josh Brazil, vice-president of marketing at Project44, told the Post the closure could cause global inflation to increase, in part because many traders are passing on costs of delays to customers.
“The fact that ships remain delayed, and now Covid variant outbreaks in major Chinese manufacturing hubs are on the rise, indicates that there may be far-reaching downstream consequences going into Black Friday and the holiday shopping seasons,” he said “We’re seeing a lot of variation in delay times between months, and routes such as US west coast versus east coast ports, making supply chains particularly challenging for shippers to manage.”
China’s communist government has used the asymptomatic case as a reason to quarantine nearly 800 people and shut down the area surrounding the port.
According to the Global Times, a state-run newspaper, the city of Ningbo in East China’s Zhejiang Province ordered religious places, internet cafes, entertainment venues, cinemas, and gyms to shut down. By Wednesday afternoon, officials also canceled all flights in Ningbo airport to and from Beijing. At least 33,000 people who live in three districts in the area are affected by the lockdown.
The communist-run Times blamed “contaminated cargo” for the port employee’s infection. The Post said the person was seen on video surveillance in close contact with “foreign crew members” at the port.
China’s communist government has a history of quickly clamping down when threatened with growing coronavirus cases. In the early months of the pandemic, the Communist Party worked tirelessly to undermine travel bans that might have prevented the coronavirus from spreading beyond China.
China pulled strings with international organizations to secure recommendations against blocking travel for infected Chinese. Even as the Chinese government was locking Wuhan’s Hubei province down and forbidding internal travel, it pushed international travel, the Economic Times reported.
Officials, however, did not hesitate to issue travel bans from the U.K., India, and other countries in 2020 after ardently opposing such bans in other countries.
Notably, the Post emphasized how China became the “main exporter of goods to other parts of the world still under lockdown” when the country “recovered well” after the first wave of Chinese coronavirus.

What if Washington DC applied Communist China Travel Controls here?
Communist China claims a world record for low C-19 Infections. As of today, China has a World Ranking of #107 out of 222 nations. With only total of 94,326 infections since the pandemic start back in 2019. I t claims only 1,385 cases in the last 14 days. While the rest of the world was and is still burning.
Is it because China in part uses Incoming International Travel bans and Incoming Border Crossing travel bans to stop the spread of Infections and new variants? Or plain BS communist propagranda?
But since DC US Socialcrats seem to believe the CCP infection data. Because they sure as hell aren't on CNN challenging them, now are they.
Then why hasn't DC followed suit and applied Incoming International Travel controls at ALL US borders?
Answer: It conflicts with the DC Socialcrats OPEN BORDERS agenda.

What if Washington DC applied Communist China Travel Controls here?
It's unenforceable. It fact, it's unenforceable in China. Except, in China, people who bribed an official to make an exception for them - don't go on social networks to brag about it.

Petkovic announced this on his Twitter page on August 13.
Petkovic writes that on August 13, the day when Serbs mourn the Serbian children killed in 2003 in the village of Gorazdevac, graffiti appeared in the center of Serb-populated Gracanica, glorifying the Kosovo Liberation Army.
It should be reminded that on August 13, 2003, unknown persons fired at Serbian children from automatic weapons, who were swimming in the Bistrica river near the center of the village of Gorazdevac.

[JPost] - Are Israelis against vaccination or are there other reasons that some one million eligible individuals have not turned out to get the jab?
A new survey conducted by Prof. Michal Grinstein-Weiss attempts to answer this question.
The survey, which was taken on August 11 and 12, asked 925 individuals over age 18 whether they had been vaccinated or not. If not, the survey asked them why.
Some 11% of respondents said they had not been inoculated, 75% of which said they do not plan to do so.
When broken down by religion and level of religion, the majority of the unvaccinated are either haredi (ultra-Orthodox) or Arab. Some 24% of haredim and some 21% of Arabs are unvaccinated, versus 6% of secular people, 11% of traditional people and 8% of religious or Religious Zionist respondents.
...Some one-third of the people who said they did not vaccinate — 54% of haredim and 38% of Arabs — said it was because they already contracted the virus in a previous wave and therefore felt that they were protected.
"It is important to understand this when messaging about vaccination to these populations," Grinstein-Weiss said. "This one-third is not really anti-vaccination. So, it just needs to be explained to them why they need to vaccinate even if they have already been sick." To wit: immunity to coronaviruses is short lasting (see comments)
...The number one reason that Israelis do not want to get vaccinated is because they still do not feel they know enough about the long-term impact of the vaccine (46%). Others said that they do not believe the vaccine is effective (40%) or that they do not think it is safe even in the short term (38%). The breakdown of basic education in modern western societys is really depressing
Strikingly, despite multiple Israeli and international studies, there are still many women who are opting out of vaccination because they are afraid it will impact fertility (17%) or because they are pregnant or nursing and afraid it could harm their baby (11%).
...Israel began vaccinating pregnant women in January and stepped up its encouragement of these women getting inoculated during the third wave, when the British variant caused many women in their third trimesters to develop serious cases of the virus that required emergency delivery and treatment in the intensive care unit. Some pregnant women died from the virus then, too. Stupidity is not a crime - but it is a capital offense.
Another factor that plays into whether or not people get vaccinated seems to be their friends and family networks. Some 61% of people whose friends and/or family members are not vaccinating have chosen not to vaccinate themselves.
"They tend to give into peer pressure," said Yaniv Shlomo, a senior research associate at SPI, who worked with Grinstein-Weiss on the survey. "They run in cliques." An Israeli example of staunch individualism claimed by American anti-vaxxers.
...Finally, the report looked at the connection between immunization and marital status: The percentage of those not vaccinated is higher among those who are single or without children compared to those who are married or have kids — 16% unvaccinated versus 9%.
Many thought a second wave was impossible in Brazil’s Amazon because of the severity of the first.
A second crisis has stunned the city of Manaus
...Around 80 confirmed covid-19 deaths were reported each day in May 2020—Manaus was the first Brazilian city to dig mass graves. In the second wave in January 2021 that number exceeded 100. The new heights of despair in a city that suffered so much with the first wave came as a shock to residents and public health experts alike.
It has alarmed researchers across the world too. Many thought a second wave impossible because of the scale of the previous outbreak. “The academic
community thought they were close to herd
immunity,” says Diego Rosselli, an epidemiologist
at Bogotá’s La Javeriana University. “Once again, we had it wrong.”
[Zero Hedge] As Statista's infographic above shows, there are 1.88 billion websites today and looking at Internet Live Stats' counter, this figure is currently increasing at a fast rate.

I have lost track of how many people I have dealt with over the years who had a web site but the developer died or just quit taking their calls, they had no passwords and the URL wasn't even registered to them. Then the registration lapsed and a squatter sat on it hoping to make a fast buck. I wonder exactly how many of these web sites are "Under Construction, this URL can be yours," or just throw an Apache stack error of some sort. Or are subdomains being counted as stand alone "websites." More magic numbers...

No doubt there are a bunch of "null" websites in the count. But the interesting part is the slope of curve which looks to be exponentially increasing.

Much of the problem is due to US/EU/CCP constantly adjusting its own C-19 Facts and Figures. Thus opening a door for equally "developed" data.
Then there is the long history of the establishment and MSM frequently getting caught selling a false Narrative for political and social reasons.
So too many times what the public is told or is sold as a Conspiracy Theory today, has been proven Fact later when it was safer to do so.
A few examples of past CONSPIRACY THEORIES later proved factually accurate:
(1950's) Tobacco companies are hiding evidence that smoking is deadly and causes cancer.
(2000's) The U.S. government is watching your internet use.
(2019) The Coronavirus-19 is from a Communist Chinese Research Lab, not some Bat from a farmers market.
(2019-2020) Coronavirus-19 death rate has been overstated its not 4.3% of the population as predicted.
(2019-2021) The most popular used over the ear Paper and cloth masks do not filter out the Covid-19 virus. Because virus is much smaller than their filtering ability.
(2020) Covid-19 Tests are producing lots of false positives.
