The Rest of the Story - Steve Kirsch's MIT Speech on NZ Whistleblower Barry Young's Revelations Proving C-19 "Vaccines" Killing Millions
Steve Kirsch, the head of the Vaccine Safety Research Foundation (VSRF), just gave a talk at the Massachusetts Institute of Technolgy (MIT) explaining the record-level data from three countries (US, New Zealand and the Maldives), including new data released by whistleblower Barry Young, an Oracle database admin from the New Zealand Ministry of Health, showing that the Covid “vaccines” have definitely killed over 10 million worldwide. Credible estimates range from 13 million (Steve Kirsch of the VSRF) to 17 million (Professor Denis Rancourt) to 20 million+ (Peter Halligan), which is significantly more than the supposed 7 million allegedly killed by “The Covid,” which, itself, is an inflated number jacked up by PCR/Antigen tests notorious for false positives, relabling the seasonal flu, and incentives offered to hospitals to classify patients and deaths as “Covid” which ginned up the fear to trick people into injecting themselves with poison.
Barry Young, the Oracle database admin from the New Zealand Ministry of Health, was arrested on December 2nd. At his arraignment on December 3rd, he was greeted by applause from a crowd who showed up to support him.
Barry Young, the NZ whistleblower, has since been arrested and charged with “dishonestly accessing a computer.” Multiple NZ “government” spokespersons have come forward to corroborate that the data was leaked by Mr. Young.

NYT: Israel Had Hamas's Attack Plan For Over a Year
Israel had Hamas's Oct 7 attack plan for more than a year but didn't believe Hamas would carry it out, according to a bombshell report from the New York Times.
We were all told last month that any notion Israel had prior knowledge of the attack was an "anti-Semitic conspiracy theory" but now the media is just outright admitting it.
From The New York Times:
Israel Knew Hamas's Attack Plan More Than a Year Ago
A blueprint reviewed by The Times laid out the attack in detail. Israeli officials dismissed it as aspirational and ignored specific warnings.
By Ronen Bergman and Adam Goldman | Reporting from Tel Aviv | Nov. 30, 2023, 7:16 p.m. ET
Israeli officials obtained Hamas's battle plan for the Oct. 7 terrorist attack more than a year before it happened, documents, emails and interviews show. But Israeli military and intelligence officials dismissed the plan as aspirational, considering it too difficult for Hamas to carry out.
The approximately 40-page document, which the Israeli authorities code-named "Jericho Wall," outlined, point by point, exactly the kind of devastating invasion that led to the deaths of about 1,200 people.
The translated document, which was reviewed by The New York Times, did not set a date for the attack, but described a methodical assault designed to overwhelm the fortifications around the Gaza Strip, take over Israeli cities and storm key military bases, including a division headquarters

Interview of the Week
by Greg Hunter’s USAWatchdog.com
Precious metals expert and financial writer Bill Holter says the recent underreported announcement by the UBS CEO Sergio Ermotti in Switzerland that his bank might need a “rescue” is yet another sign on the short road to the end of the global Ponzi scheme backed by the US dollar reserve currency. Holter points out, “You’ve got a sick bank (Credit Suisse) that is being bailed out by another bank (UBS) that may turn out to be sick. My question is who is going to bail out these central banks? You have got the Fed with a $9 trillion balance sheet. The last time, the Fed went from $900 billion to $9 trillion. Can the Fed now go from $9 trillion to $90 trillion? Who is going to bail out the Fed? Who is going to bail out the US Treasury? Who is going to bail out the Bank of England, the ECB or the Bank of Japan? These central banks have completely blown up their balance sheet and have no ability to save anything. My question is who is going to save them?”

Rebuild The Turtle Sanctuary & Bonfil Beach from Hurricane Otis
From givesendgo.com - https://www.givesendgo.com/Turtle-Sanctuary
Update: We just sent the first $315 to the Sanctuary! THANK YOU! to everyone that kicked In!!!
Campamento Tortuguero Playa Hermosa is a turtle sanctuary on Bonfil Beach outside of Acapulco that rescues sea turtle eggs that would be likely destroyed by vehicles on the beaches or pilfered by tourists.
The sanctuary protects the eggs, hatches them and releases the babies into the ocean while protecting them from seagulls and other winged predators.
The 35-year-old sanctuary is run by the mother/daughter duo of Monica and Michel Vallarino, who have helped educate the community and the tourists on the ecology of the turtles while simultaneously providing a refuge for puppies, kittens, ducks, rabbits, and other wayward animals.
The Art of Liberty Foundation hosted an annual fundraiser from 2018-2020 called the Art of Liberty on the Beach (aKa The Turtle Party), where many of the leading artists in the liberty movement have rocked the sanctuary, including Grant "Prezence" Ellman, Truniversal/Free Willow, Alais Clay, the Freenauts, DJ Koala, DJ Ramiro Romani and ELA-mental among others.
Daily News Of The Week
Are COVID Jab Deaths Being Covered Up?
The Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS) does not meet its own standards, and safety signals are not being addressed
Before the COVID pandemic, VAERS received an average of 60,000 adverse event reports after vaccination each year. In the first year of the rollout of the experimental gene therapies against COVID (2021), reports skyrocketed to 1 million. By the end of October 2023, the number of reports associated with the COVID shots was 1,605,764, and nearly 1 in 5 of those reports involves a “serious” adverse event
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which share responsibility for VAERS, insist these data in no way reflect a potential problem with the COVID shots
Filing a VAERS report is a time-consuming process. It can take several hours for a trained medical professional to fill out a single report, and this is time that cannot be billed to anyone. As a result, side effects, including deaths, are massively underreported
UN & Bill Gates Launch “50in5” Global Digital Infrastructure Plans
Last week the United Nations Development Program officially launched their new initiative promoting “Digital Public Infrastructure” (DPI) around the world.
The “50in5” program – so-called because it aims to introduce DPI in fifty countries in the next five years – began with a live-streamed event on November 8th.
For those of you unsure what “Digital Public Infrastructure” is, the 50in5 website is quite clear:
Digital public infrastructure (DPI) – which refers to a secure and interoperable network of components that include digital payments, ID, and data exchange systems.
There’s nothing new there, for anyone who has been paying even the slightest bit of attention. Digital identity and digital payment systems are self-explanatory (and we’ve covered them before). “Data Exchange Systems” essentially means national governments will share identity and financial records of citizens across borders with other nations, or indeed with global government agencies.
Estonia notifies WHO that it rejects the Pandemic Treaty and amendments to International Health Regulations
Last month we published an article explaining that in May 2022 the World Health Assembly (“WHA”) quietly agreed to reduce the period during which nations have to opt out of future amendments to the International Health Regulations. For nations to retain the longer 18-month period previously allowed for nations to opt-out, countries need to send WHO a short note that they are opting out of the amendments decided by the WHA in 2022 before 1 December 2023.
The letter from the Estonian MPs is dated 22 November 2023, 8 days before the 1 December deadline. The MPs haven’t simply opted out of the amendments decided by the WHA in 2022, they have gone much further and rejected both the proposed Pandemic Treaty and the IHR amendments in their entirety as well as additional funding to WHO.
Kamikaze drone takes out missile factory in major blow for Putin
A Ukrainian kamikaze drone has hit a Russian missile factory, causing an explosion and fire to rip through the building.
Footage shows the blast ripping through the roof of a workshop at the Smolensk Aviation Plant in western Russia, where Kh-59 missiles are reportedly produced.
This is the second time Ukraine has targeted this specific factory – though Russia claims to have suppressed the most recent drone before it hit its target.
Local sources claim the fire is now under control.
Another drone was reportedly shot down in the Zadneprovsky district of Smolensk.
Kh-59 missiles are among the most heavily used by Vladimir Putin to attack Ukraine.
Ukraine claimed its early October strike disrupted production of the cruise missile at the plant.
The plant is currently used to repair military equipment for use in Putin’s war against Ukraine, it is understood.
Watchdog to Fed: JPMorgan Is Controlling Fossil Fuels Empire, Which Just Spilled a Million Gallons of Oil in Gulf of Mexico
by Pam Martens and Russ Martens
The formidable Washington watchdog, Public Citizen, has trained its sights on JPMorgan Chase, Jamie Dimon’s house of serial frauds and felony counts that is allowed to also operate as the largest federally-insured bank in the United States.
Public Citizen’s pursuit of JPMorgan Chase began in 2019 when its Energy Program Director, Tyson Slocum, began investigating a hodge podge of private equity shell companies using the name Infrastructure Investments Fund (IIF). At the time, IIF was in the process of buying El Paso Electric and Public Citizen smelled something rotten and started digging. Public Citizen concluded that JPMorgan Chase was controlling IIF. Public Citizen then filed a series of complaints in the matter with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).
Coming Soon: Your Travel Will Be Restricted By Personal Carbon Allowances
A report on the future of travel and tourism, co-authored by a travel agency called Intrepid Travel and The Future Labs Institute, posits a future deeply impacted by climate change and restrictions on tourist travel to combat it.
“A Sustainable Future for Travel”, warns of “travel extinction”, where some areas suffer such radical climate change that all tourism there ceases, and “personal carbon allowances” that will restrict how often one is permitted travel.
From the report (pardon the length, emphasis added):
A personal carbon emissions limit will become the new normal as policy and people’s values drive an era of great change.
As demonstrated by a worldwide tourism boom, the frequency at which we can fly is once again seemingly unlimited.
Conscience and budgets permitting, we feel free to hop on planes from one place to the next. But this will change. ‘On our current trajectory, we can expect a pushback against the frequency with which individuals can travel, with carbon passports set to change the tourism landscape,’ says Raymond [Martin Raymond, Future Laboratories co-founder]
Your 3 Minutes of Zen – Comedian Tim Hawkins Parody Song: The “Government” Can
Found on the internet! Comedian Tim Hawkins skewers the organized crime "government" in this hysterical parody of the Candy Man Can.
The Feds' Vehicle 'Kill Switch' Mandate Is a Gross (and Dangerous) Violation of Privac
In November 2021, former US Representative from Georgia Bob Barr wrote a little-noticed political column claiming that buried inside President Joe Biden’s $1 trillion bipartisan infrastructure legislation was a dangerous provision that would go into effect in five years.
“Marketed to Congress as a benign tool to help prevent drunk driving, the measure will mandate that automobile manufacturers build into every car what amounts to a ‘vehicle kill switch,’” wrote Barr, who was the Libertarian Party’s nominee for president in 2008.
Like most Americans, I had never heard of this alleged “kill switch” until a few days ago when Representative Thomas Massie, a libertarian-leaning Republican, proposed to strip the mandate’s funding.
“The right to travel is fundamental, but the government has mandated a kill-switch in new vehicles sold after 2026,” said Massie. “The kill-switch will monitor driver performance and disable cars based on the information gathered.”
Unspoken Objective: Israel Wants to Confiscate Gaza’s Offshore Gas Reserves Which Belong to Palestine
A powerful United Nations agency has unveiled a plan to regulate social media and online communication while cracking down on what it describes as “false information” and “conspiracy theories,” sparking alarm among free-speech advocates and top U.S. lawmakers.
In its 59-page report released this month, the U.N. Educational, Cultural, and Scientific Organization (UNESCO) outlined a series of “concrete measures which must be implemented by all stakeholders: governments, regulatory authorities, civil society, and the platforms themselves.”
This approach includes the imposition of global policies, through institutions such as governments and businesses, designed to stop the spread of various forms of speech while promoting objectives such as “cultural diversity” and “gender equality.”

US Investments in Nazi Germany. Rockefeller Financed Adolf Hitler's Election Campaig
by Yuri Rubtsov and Prof Michel Chossudovsky
From World War I to the Present: Dollar denominated debt has been the driving force behind all US led wars.
Wall Street creditors are the main actors.
They were firmly behind Nazi Germany. They financed Operation Barbarossa and the invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941.
“On January 4th, 1932, a meeting was held between British financier Montagu Norman (Governor of the Bank of England), Adolf Hitler and Franz Von Papen (who became Chancellor a few months later in May 1932) At this meeting, an agreement on the financing of the Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (NSDAP or Nazi Party) was reached.
This meeting was also attended by US policy-makers and the Dulles brothers, something which their biographers do not like to mention.
A year later, on January 14th, 1933, another meeting was held between Adolph Hitler, Germany’s Financier Baron Kurt von Schroeder, Chancellor Franz von Papen and Hitler’s Economic Advisor Wilhelm Keppler took place, where Hitler’s program was fully approved.” (Y. Rubtsov, text below)

Cato's Letters: The Rules for Republics
Cato's Letters Dallas, Sushi, and South Africa
Thanksgiving brings to mind not only turkeys, family, and friends, but also should help us recall the remarkable ideas and philosophies that helped shape, and indeed were, the foundation for the United States of America as a Republic.
In that spirit, we will forgo for this week the series we have been exploring on cycles and the examination of budgets and deficits, debt and taxes, and the future crisis they will bring if not dealt with. Rather, let's reflect on what we want our world to look like after that crisis. What should be our guiding principles?
Most of us are aware that the founding fathers read Locke, Hume, Smith, et al. But not many of us are aware that there was another series of papers that were just as influential as the works of more famous philosophers. They were clearly a part of the background for the Federalist Papers and, later, our Constitution.
Is the US’s Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System Broken
Three weeks after receiving a second dose of a covid vaccine, Robert Sullivan collapsed at home on his treadmill. An anaesthesiologist in Maryland, USA, he was a particularly fit 49 year old: the week before falling ill, he’d been happily skiing at altitude in Colorado.
Sullivan was given a diagnosis of sudden onset pulmonary hypertension, which is generally progressive, can be fatal, and in most cases can’t be cured. The condition is rare, especially in middle aged men. Sullivan decided to file a report in the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), which collects reports of symptoms, diagnoses, hospital admissions, and deaths after vaccination for the purpose of capturing post-market safety signals.
But the submission process was a glitchy race against the clock. “The format is cumbersome and it times you out,” he tells The BMJ. For his troubles, Sullivan received a confirmation by email and a temporary “e-report” number. He learnt from his doctor’s office that a VAERS representative had requested medical records. Then he didn’t hear back for a year.
Fed Data on Cash Assets at the Biggest Banks Depicts an Out-of-Control Fed and Banking System
by Pam Martens and Russ Martens
FRED is a giant online database at the St. Louis Fed that allows anyone to graph the financial and economic data stored in its repositories. We use the data regularly to bring our readers a crystal-clear snapshot of the increasingly dangerous underpinnings of the U.S. financial system.
Let’s start with the first chart above. This chart depicts the cash assets held by the 25 largest U.S. commercial banks. The Fed defines the term “cash assets” as “vault cash, cash items in process of collection, balances due from depository institutions, and balances due from Federal Reserve Banks.” Notice that from April 1, 1985 to just before the financial crash of 2008, cash levels at the biggest banks were as steady as a soft breeze on a spring day. But from that point on through today, there have been freakish spikes and plunges in cash levels. Soft-breeze banking has turned into chaotic hurricane banking, with the Fed pumping in trillions of dollars in emergency cash and the mega banks careening from one crisis to the next.
Good News Victory in Branson – Fluoride Action Network Helps Shut Down Fluoridation of Town's Water Supply!
Dear Friends:
The Fluoride Action Network (FAN) applauds the utilities staff and decision makers of Branson, Missouri--as well as the local residents who spoke up--for taking action to protect the community and public employees from the serious risks posed by the practice of water fluoridation.
On November 14th, the Branson Board of Alderman voted unanimously to repeal their municipal ordinance that allowed for the addition of fluoridation chemicals to the public water supply, effectively prohibiting the practice. This initial vote was followed by a second unanimous vote to ensure that the process for removing the chemical was conducted as quickly as possible, and this vote was followed by a verbal pledge from the mayor to sign the ordinance change into law immediately following the meeting.

Nobody wants U.S. Treasury bonds
Nobody wants U.S. Treasury bonds.
Once a symbol of America’s economic might and accepted as a global coin of the realm, they have fallen badly out of favor, with serious consequences for taxpayers, investors, and financial markets.
Elementary economic forces — too much supply and not enough demand — have collided to create the worst stretch for U.S. government bonds since the Civil War. The government keeps borrowing to cover its budget deficits, while once-reliable buyers of that debt, both at home and abroad, have pulled back.
The result: Investors are demanding the steepest yields since 2007. Auctions of fresh bonds that were once routine are now going terribly. And bond portfolios are getting absolutely hammered. The longest-dated Treasury bonds are in a bear market worse than the dot-com bust and almost as bad as 2008.
Israeli Intelligence Knew of Hamas Plans for Attack, But Stopped Monitoring Hamas
Israel’s intelligence service Shin Bet knew Hamas fighters were active hours before the Oct. 7 attack — but failed to predict the scale of the incursion, in part because Israel no longer monitored the terror group’s handheld radio traffic, according to a new report.
The Israel Defense Forces Unit 8200 had stopped eavesdropping on the Hamas conversations because they believed it was a “waste of effort,” the New York Times reported on Monday.
The report chronicles the intelligence failures that left Israel unprepared for the massive Hamas attack, which saw thousands of terrorist pour into southern Israel, killing 1,400 people and kidnapping more than 200.
Israel’s security chiefs concluded that the Hamas activity would likely result in a small-scale assault, the Times reported.
They ordered the Team Tequila counterterrorism unit to southern Israel, but decided not to wake up Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, according to the newspaper, which cited three unnamed Israeli defense officials.
How Sugar Fuels Cancer In The Body
Sugars ‘Nourish’ Cancer Cells
For cancer patients, “sugar intake can indeed nourish cancer cells,” Mingyang Song, associate professor of clinical epidemiology and nutrition at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, told The Epoch Times.
This is supported by strong epidemiological evidence, he said.
A study published in PLoS One involving 1,011 colon cancer patients with a follow-up period of over seven years found that compared to patients consuming less than two servings of sugar-sweetened beverages per month, those who consumed two or more servings per day experienced a 67 percent increased risk of colon cancer recurrence or mortality.
Another Spanish study published in Clinical Nutrition in 2021 involving over 7,000 participants found that for every additional 5 grams of sugar consumed in liquid form per day, cancer incidence increased by 8 percent. People with the highest intake experienced a 46 percent increase.
Is China’s ‘mystery pneumonia’ (same old script) sweeping Europe ? Netherlands sees alarming surge in similar illness among children
An alarming spike in pneumonia cases among children has been detected in the Netherlands, mirroring a similar surge in China.
Dutch health experts say a striking number have been sickened since rates began soaring in August, with most cases among those aged five to 14.
Surveillance data shows rates of the illness, which can prove life-threatening, are already nearly twice as high as the peak recorded last year.
t comes as China battles its own ‘mystery’ pneumonia cluster, with media stating hospitals as being ‘overwhelmed with sick children’.
Terrifying footage reminiscent of scenes during Covid’s darkest days shows health workers in hazmat suits, gloves and masks spraying disinfectant through schools, hallways and outdoors.
Beijing officials have ruled out a new virus as being to blame for the spike. Instead, they insist the rise is down to a surge in seasonal illnesses as the country faces its first full winter without Covid-era curbs.
The ADL Has Been Sending Top US Cops To Israeli Terrorism Seminars Blamed For 'Militarizing' Police
This is also set against the backdrop of the post-9/11 'war on terror' era trend of local police departments gaining access military gear and equipment. Heavy armored vehicles like MRAPs have now become a fixture of even small town police departments.
"A lot of the policing that folks are observing and being talked to about in these trips is policing that happens in a nondemocratic context," Alex Vitale, a sociology professor at Brooklyn College and author of a forthcoming book on global policing, told The Intercept in 2017.
"The kinds of training police are given in Israel is actually part of the problem because it encourages a warrior mindset in police and exposes them to practices that would be unconstitutional in the U.S.," he told the outlet earlier this year.
The FBI has also participated in the program, which was launched by former FBI official Steven Pomerantz.

If the US refinanced its $33.827 trillion debt at a 10-year US Treasury bond yield of 4.38%, interest expense would be $1.48 trillion.
US is leading the way on this, unfortunately. If the US refinanced its current debt load ($33.827 trillion) at the yield on 10-year US Treasury bond (4.38%), interest expense would be $1.48 trillion, 50% higher than the top of this skyrocketing chart.t.co/MLnYFsU229

$2 Trillion is the interest on our $33.8 Trillion debt. People wonder why our interest rates are high now, its all related to countries willing to buy our debt. You need higher rates to attract people to buy your bonds. Powell can do nothing about the market now.

What Happens When Millions of Renters Can No Longer Afford High Rents and Move Back Home
Recency bias can stretch back 40 years. It's been over 40 years since the U.S. experienced a deep recession (what I call a "real recession") which is characterized by elevated inflation, interest rates, yields, unemployment, defaults and bankruptcies, none of which can be reversed with air-drops of "free money" because higher inflation, rates and yields all limit central bank money-printing and fiscal "free money" via deficit spending.
Without air-drops of trillions of dollars in "free money", the accumulated excesses of the economy have to sort themselves out the hard way via defaults, bankruptcies, insolvencies, layoffs, tightening credit and reduced spending / consumption.
The last time this burn-off of excesses could no longer be pushed forward occurred in 1980-82, the deepest downturn since the Great Depression in the 1930s.
Few remember the 1980-82 recession and even fewer think a recurrence is even possible. The dead-wood of excesses never get burned off, they just pile higher with each central bank-fiscal bailout / "free money" air-drop.
Recessions which burn off excesses act as catalysts for profound social, financial and economic shifts. Up until the recession, everyone assumes the current situation is permanent and forever. This is the equivalent of assuming a forest piled high with deadwood will never catch fire.

Americans Need Over $11K More To Keep 2021 Standard Of Living: Report
Americans need over $11,000 more this year to keep the same standard of living they enjoyed at the beginning of 2021.
Thanks to soaring inflation, the typical American household must spend $11,434 more in 2023 to achieve that quality of life, according to an analysis of government data, CBS News reported.
The inflation rate has slowed slightly since 2021, when it spiked to the highest levels in four decades, but many American families say they are struggling more financially now than they did before the pandemic, CBS News polling from September showed.
Less than half of Americans, 47%, say they cannot live comfortably and have little money left over after meeting their expenses, down from 56% who said so in 2019, according to the polling. Meanwhile, more than half, 53% of Americans, say they either have just enough or cannot meet their expenses, up from 44% in 2019.
‘A mass assassination factory’: Inside Israel’s calculated bombing of Gaz
The Israeli army’s expanded authorization for bombing non-military targets, the loosening of constraints regarding expected civilian casualties, and the use of an artificial intelligence system to generate more potential targets than ever before, appear to have contributed to the destructive nature of the initial stages of Israel’s current war on the Gaza Strip, an investigation by +972 Magazine and Local Call reveals. These factors, as described by current and former Israeli intelligence members, have likely played a role in producing what has been one of the deadliest military campaigns against Palestinians since the Nakba of 1948.
The investigation by +972 and Local Call is based on conversations with seven current and former members of Israel’s intelligence community — including military intelligence and air force personnel who were involved in Israeli operations in the besieged Strip — in addition to Palestinian testimonies, data, and documentation from the Gaza Strip, and official statements by the IDF Spokesperson and other Israeli state institutions.
The U.S. Treasury’s Financial Crisis Warning Bell Didn’t Ring Before the Repo Crisis of 2019 or This Year’s Bank Runs
by Pam Martens and Russ Martens
Janet Yellen, the U.S. Treasury Secretary, chairs F-SOC. Its members include the heads of every federal banking and Wall Street regulator, who meet regularly to assess any threats on the horizon that could lead to financial instability in the U.S.
The Office of Financial Research (OFR) is a unit of the U.S. Treasury Department. OFR was created as part of the Dodd-Frank financial reform legislation of 2010 to keep the Financial Stability Oversight Council (F-SOC) informed about emerging threats that have the potential to spread contagion throughout the U.S. financial system — as occurred in 2008 in the worst financial crash since the Great Depression.

20 RED FLAGS MANY PEOPLE IGNORED IN 2020
Pending home sales, a measure of signed contracts on existing homes, dropped 1.5% in October from September.
They hit the lowest level since the National Association of Realtors began tracking this metric in 2001, meaning it’s even worse than readings during the financial crisis more than a decade ago. Sales were down 8.5% from October of last year.
Because the index measures signed contracts, it is the most recent indicator of housing demand. It reflects the buyers who were out shopping in October, which was when the popular 30-year fixed mortgage rate briefly shot higher than 8%.
Rates have since pulled back to around 7.3%, according to Mortgage News Daily. The realtors continue to say it’s not just high rates but still very low supply of homes for sale that is deflating activity.

Texas Sues Pfizer Over Covid-19 Vaccine Effectiveness Claims
(Bloomberg) -- Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton sued Pfizer Inc. for allegedly misrepresenting the effectiveness of the company’s Covid-19 vaccine.
The pharmaceutical giant used misleading statistics to promote the vaccine and sought to “intimidate” anyone who questioned the product, according to the lawsuit filed in a Texas state court Thursday. The conservative Republican is seeking more than $10 million in fines and a court order barring Pfizer from speaking publicly about the efficacy of its vaccine.
“We are pursuing justice for the people of Texas, many of whom were coerced by tyrannical vaccine mandates to take a defective product sold by lies,” Paxton said in a statement.
The lawsuit follows a probe launched by his office in May into three major drug companies related to claims about the effectiveness of the vaccine. Paxton has been a vocal opponent of Covid safety mandates since the onset of the pandemic.
Drivers would pay $15 to enter busiest part of Manhattan under plan to raise funds for mass transit
NEW YORK — Most drivers would pay $15 to enter Manhattan’s central business district under a plan released by New York officials Thursday. The congestion pricing plan, which neighboring New Jersey has filed a lawsuit over, will be the first such program in the United States if it is approved by transportation officials early next year.
Under the plan, passenger car drivers entering Manhattan south of 60th Street during daytime hours would be charged $15 electronically, while the fee for small trucks would be $24 and large trucks would be charged $36.
Cities such as London and Stockholm have similar programs in place, but New York City is poised to become the first in the U.S.
Revenue from the tolls, projected to be roughly $1 billion annually, would be used to finance borrowing to upgrade the city’s mass transit systems.
Princeton Is 'Best' But USC Is America's Most Expensive University
The latest ranking of America’s best universities is here, perfectly timed for the approaching admissions season.
“Best” is of course subjective, and U.S. News and World Report has compiled 19 metrics on which they evaluated more than 400 national universities. Some of them include:
Graduation rates & performance: A four-year rolling average of the proportion of each entering class earning a bachelor’s degree in six years or less. Performance is measured against predictions made by the publishers, and when beaten, the university gains a higher scoring.
Peer assessment: A two-year weighted average of ratings from top academics—presidents, provosts and deans of admissions—on academic quality of peer institutions with which they are familiar.
Financial resources: The average per student spend on instruction, research, student services and related educational expenditures in the 2021 fiscal year.
NYT: Israel Had Hamas's Attack Plan For Over a Year
Israel had Hamas's Oct 7 attack plan for more than a year but didn't believe Hamas would carry it out, according to a bombshell report from the New York Times.
We were all told last month that any notion Israel had prior knowledge of the attack was an "anti-Semitic conspiracy theory" but now the media is just outright admitting it.
From The New York Times:
Israel Knew Hamas's Attack Plan More Than a Year Ago
A blueprint reviewed by The Times laid out the attack in detail. Israeli officials dismissed it as aspirational and ignored specific warnings.
By Ronen Bergman and Adam Goldman | Reporting from Tel Aviv | Nov. 30, 2023, 7:16 p.m. ET
Israeli officials obtained Hamas's battle plan for the Oct. 7 terrorist attack more than a year before it happened, documents, emails and interviews show. But Israeli military and intelligence officials dismissed the plan as aspirational, considering it too difficult for Hamas to carry out.
The approximately 40-page document, which the Israeli authorities code-named "Jericho Wall," outlined, point by point, exactly the kind of devastating invasion that led to the deaths of about 1,200 people.
The translated document, which was reviewed by The New York Times, did not set a date for the attack, but described a methodical assault designed to overwhelm the fortifications around the Gaza Strip, take over Israeli cities and storm key military bases, including a division headquarters.
Hamas followed the blueprint with shocking precision. The document called for a barrage of rockets at the outset of the attack, drones to knock out the security cameras and automated machine guns along the border, and gunmen to pour into Israel en masse in paragliders, on motorcycles and on foot -- all of which happened on Oct. 7.
Russia bans ‘LGBT movement’
The Supreme Court of Russia outlawed the “international LGBT public movement” on Thursday, designating it as extremist. The ruling also affects its subsidiaries, the court announced, without naming specific organizations.
The lawsuit, filed earlier this month by the Russian Justice Ministry, argued that “the LGBT movement’s” activities qualified it as an “extremist group.” Specifically, it has been sowing “social and religious discord” in the country, the ministry claimed.
The hearings took place behind closed doors and lasted over four hours as the case involved more than 20 tomes of material, RIA Novosti reported, citing the Supreme Court’s press service. No representatives of the “international LGBT movement” were present during the hearings, with only an attorney for the Justice Ministry in attendance.
Israeli Journalist Retracts ‘Babies Hung on a Clothesline’ October 7 Atrocity Propaganda
Israeli journalist Ishay Cohen thought he had a major scoop. As it turned out, he was credulously going along with the Israeli military’s latest propaganda stunt, and sacrificing his own credibility along the way.
Cohen, a journalist with Shabbat Square, a Hebrew-language news site directed at Israel’s Orthodox population, published a video he took of an Israeli military officer telling him that he saw a row of murdered “babies hung on a clothesline" in the immediate aftermath of the October 7 Hamas attack.
The incendiary claim sparked controversy, prompting Cohen to delete the story, however not until it had circulated for several hours, stirring a heated debate among Israeli X users.
Cohen explained his decision to publish the video, revealing that the Israeli military spokesperson’s office fed him the interview and was present during the filming, and that he deleted it to avoid damaging Israel’s propaganda efforts.
