Local authorities in Britain shut down the market stall of a rare book dealer because she was selling mugs decorated with iconography of the Knights Templar. The rationale for the decision was that the Christian symbols on the mugs might upset Muslims.
In other news, German intelligence agencies believe that there are Hamas and Hezbollah fighters in Germany who came in with the migrant influx, and that their numbers have increased in the past year.

Break-in at Las Vegas Shooter’s Home in Reno Confounds Police
FBI agents returned to search a house in Reno owned by Las Vegas shooter Stephen Paddock after local police told them that someone had broken into the home over the weekend. Reno police officer Tim Broadway said they were called to the house Sunday morning by a neighbor who saw lights on in the home owned by Paddock.
“Nobody really saw anything, just a light was on with nobody in the residence,” Broadway said, according to the Associated Press.
He added that the suspects broke into the home through the front door over the weekend, but said he was not sure exactly how they gained entry. Police are not aware of any damages or anything that was stolen.
There are no suspects at this time or any descriptions of a suspect.
The FBI is working with Reno police to ensure “there are no further incidents,” Broadway told the Reno-Gazette Journal.

Eyewitness Report of Shooting at the Tropicana and NY NY
On October 10, 2017, Shepard Ambellas, Publisher of Intellihub.com transcribed the audio from publicly available Las Vegas Metro Police scanners to form a timeline of the massacre of October 1st. This timeline and the multiple incidents and locations of shooters support statements made by the young Gio Rios, who was near the front row at Jason Aldean’s performance and narrowly escaped getting shot. Rios recorded his account of the events in the Facebook Livestream above on October 8th. Rios’ testimony is summarized beneath the police scanner timeline.
Rios reports hearing additional rounds of gunfire being shot from both outside and within the Tropicana hotel, as well as from the direction of the New York New York hotel. These events are also referenced in the police scanner timeline below and are in serious contradiction to the official “Lone Nut” narrative about Stephen Paddock being presented by the Las Vegas police department and the Mainstream Media.

Gen. Kelly on Trump’s Two Biggest Frustrations
[…] In an interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity on Oct. 12, Trump criticized the “fake media” and “fake news.”
“Media is bad, they’re really dishonest people, these are very very dishonest people, in many cases, in many cases,” he said.
“Look, I know some reporters, I know some journalists, that are phenomenal people and very straight, very honest. But there’s such dishonesty.” …
The second frustration that Trump has, according to Kelly, is the glacial pace of Congress.
“Of course, our government is designed to be slow, and it is,” Kelly said. He said Trump was a man of action, outside of the Washington arena.
“Because in his view, the solutions are all obvious—whether it’s tax cuts, tax reform, health care, infrastructure programs, strengthening our military—to him these all seem like obvious things that need to be done to protect the American people [and] bring jobs back,” Kelly said.

Global Mass Hysteria From Notoriously Inaccurate Climate Modeling
According to the purveyors of climate change, the science is settled and anyone who disagrees with the alleged “science” should be prosecuted for providing false information to the public. If a person can be prosecuted for denying climate change, then every politician who ever engaged in a political campaign should be in jail for lying.
The dirty little secret is that climate computer models have gained the power to create planet-wide mass hysteria resulting from endless planet-wide propaganda based on agenda-driven, flawed science. Why? Because these notoriously inaccurate computer models tell us that “climate change” is man’s greatest threat to his survival and we are all going to die if we don’t PAY UP, especially Americans! Drivel! Poppy Cock! Balderdash!
What is even worse is that the Environmental Protection Agency with the power to make rules and policy, believes in it so deeply that it issued a “Declaration Of Climate Endangerment.” On December 7, 2009, the then Administrator signed two distinct findings regarding greenhouse gases under section 202(a) of the Clean Air Act:…

Harvey Weinstein May Have Been Fired Illegally… What His Contract Allowed Him to Do is Shocking
Harvey Weinstein may have been fired illegally by The Weinstein Company, a company that wrote a contract that said Weinstein could get sued over and over for sexual harassment and as long as he shelled out money, that was good enough for the Company. TMZ is privy to Weinstein’s 2015 employment contract, which says if he gets sued for sexual harassment or any other “misconduct” that results in a settlement or judgment against TWC, all Weinstein has to do is pay what the company’s out, along with a fine, and he’s in the clear.
According to the contract, if Weinstein “treated someone improperly in violation of the company’s Code of Conduct,” he must reimburse TWC for settlements or judgments. Additionally, “You [Weinstein] will pay the company liquidated damages of $250,000 for the first such instance, $500,000 for the second such instance, $750,000 for the third such instance, and $1,000,000 for each additional instance.”
The contract says as long as Weinstein pays, it constitutes a “cure” for the misconduct and no further action can be taken. Translation — Weinstein could be sued over and over and as long as he wrote a check, he keeps his job.
The contract has specific language as to when the Board of Directors can fire Weinstein — if he’s indicted or convicted of a crime, but that doesn’t apply here.
And here’s the kicker. Even if Weinstein had committed fraud by not fully informing the Board of Directors, the contract says before he can be fired he has a right to mediation and if that doesn’t work, he’s entitled to arbitration. He got neither. He was summarily fired, and sources connected with Weinstein tell TMZ he was never given a specific reason.

Las Vegas Mass Shooting Eyewitness: There Were “Four to Five” Shooters Attacking Multiple Hotels
As the official narrative surrounding the deadliest mass shooting in American history continues to unravel, multiple eyewitness accounts are starting to trickle in, with the latest being an extremely shocking and detailed account of an operation that included up to five different shooters targeting multiple hotels in Las Vegas.
Facebook user and eyewitness Gio Rios has sent shockwaves throughout the internet after he not only confirmed he was present during the attack, he presented a variety of details that are were either unpublished or have been denied by authorities and the mainstream media.
“There was more than one shooter, I believe there were 4-5 shooters and I saw/heard 4 of them,” Rios claimed. “There was one of their men down in the concert who lit firecrackers either to distract people… or to decoy the Mandalay Bay shooter breaking the windows out of the hotel without being noticed right away.”
That’s right, we now have another eyewitness publicly speaking about multiple shooters just as police originally stated (on the scanners). Keep in mind that other proof of some sort of false flag operation has also been revealed, including automatic gunfire heard at ground level.

One of last Sunday’s shooting victims Rocky Palermo who was shot in his pelvis told “The Blast” that after he had been shot he could tell that bullets were sweeping the venue from both elevated positions and from different trajectories horizontally and said that several other shooters were firing from inside the venue.
Palermo believes that 3-5 shooters carried out the massacre at the Route 91 Harvest Music Festival on Oct. 1 killing 58 people.
“I definitely believe that there was 100% more than one shooter,” Palermo told The Blast. “Every other person that I talked to that, unfortunately, got hit as well have all said the same things.”
The brave man explained that he ran about 200 yards after being shot where he then hid behind a car. He said that he could hear the bullets whizzing by, horizontally, and could tell that a number of the shots were being fired from ground level which supports other eyewitness claims.

Lawmakers Shocked to Learn 70-Plus Children Missing From Kansas’ Foster Care System
In a revelation that shocked lawmakers, the companies running the state’s foster care system said Tuesday that more than 70 foster children are missing in Kansas.
Lawmakers also were furious that Phyllis Gilmore, secretary of the Kansas Department for Children and Families, appeared unaware that three sisters have been missing from a northeast Kansas foster home since Aug. 26.
Sen. Laura Kelly, a Topeka Democrat, told a child welfare task force meeting that when she asked DCF about the missing children on Tuesday, the agency knew nothing.
“I am flabbergasted,” Kelly said afterward. “I used to work in this world years and years ago and I understand that where you have teenagers, you will have runners, and they will go and they will do this kind of stuff.
“But the fact that the person in charge of the wards of the state has no idea that these kids are missing from her custody is just astounding to me.”

Death Squad #1—the Cloward-Piven Strategy
Richard Cloward and Frances Fox Piven, a married couple, were professors at the Columbia Univ. School of Social Work who loathed capitalism. But claiming that it was really income inequality they hated, they developed what they hoped was a sure-fire way to redistribute income and transform our nation into a paradise they thought would be “fair” to all its citizens….you know, like Venezuela, Cuba, Russia, et al.
According to former longtime Congressman John Linder, Cloward and Piven posited that “capitalism could be collapsed by overloading the government with financial demands that could not be met. The strategy is to collapse the financial system. The tactic is chaos. If a crisis does not exist, create one. The more chaos the better. The solution is always couched in empathetic words like ‘fair,’ ‘equal,’ ‘humane’ and ‘just.’“
In short, they called for overloading the welfare system so it would ultimately force the government to establish a national scheme of a guaranteed annual income. Mass unrest was the tactic chosen to expand welfare rolls.
The strategy worked. By the 1970’s, says Linder, “there was one person on welfare in New York City for every two working in the private sector. The City declared bankruptcy in 1975.”
Cloward and Piven also formed Project Vote, ACORN, and Human SERVE in order to swamp voter rolls with names that would never vote, but whose names would be on the rolls so others could vote in their stead. When Pres. Bill Clinton signed the bill in 1993, Linder elaborates, Cloward and Piven were standing behind him. And surprise surprise——ACORN’s lawyer was none other than Barack Obama.

Trump Just Ripped the Heart Out of ObamaCare With This Move on Subsidies
President Trump just knocked the legs out from underneath Obamacare. We’ve been propping up this monstrosity for way too long so it’s a great move by Trump to kill it before it’s too late. The money put into this monster is sickening especially because Obamacare wasn’t designed to work in the first place. So here we have even more winning from Trump:
The Trump administration announced Thursday night that it will cease making payments to a subsidy that helps low to moderate income individuals purchase Obamacare health insurance plans.
The U.S. government cannot lawfully continue making the cost-sharing reduction payments (CSRs) that help prop up the Affordable Care Act, the White House announced in a statement. President Donald Trump’s decision to nix CSRs comes after several months of flirting with the idea.
“The bailout of insurance companies through these unlawful payments is yet another example of how the previous administration abused taxpayer dollars and skirted the law to prop up a broken system,” the White House said in a statement announcing the decision. “Congress needs to repeal and replace the disastrous Obamacare law and provide real relief to the American people.”

Vegas Shooting: Concert Workers’ Phone-Footage Wiped Clean by FBI
What??
by Jon Rappoport
The obvious reason for wiping out the footage: it contained evidence that contradicts the official scenario. And most likely, that evidence revealed multiple shooters.
As Vegas cops, the FBI, and the owners of the Mandalay Hotel have changed and massaged the official narrative, one assertion has remained constant: there was only one shooter, and he was Stephen Paddock.
Law-enforcement pounced on that claim early on, without the slightest justification. Without interviewing multiple witnesses who state they saw other shooters.
“Okay, the mass shooting happened yesterday and we know there was only one shooter. That’s it. Don’t ask us any questions about this. Anyone who disagrees with us is spreading rumors and impeding the investigation.”
Admitting multiple shooters is admitting there was cooperation, collusion, conspiracy, a plan, and a purpose for that plan beyond “the lone gunman was crazy.” This is the door law-enforcement keeps slamming shut every time it opens.
And now we have reports that the FBI has wiped witnesses’ phones and laptops. No more footage of the shooting. No more evidence.
Let’s be clear: the FBI is impeding the investigation.
There is no Constitutional rule that states private citizens can’t investigate crimes. There never was. There never will be.
Law enforcement doesn’t OWN investigations.
If they did, every time a journalist probes beneath the surface of a crime and uncovers important information, the FBI could say, “Well, we just opened an investigation of that very crime, and therefore we want all your notes and we want you to cease and desist your inquiry. Shut up and go cover Sunday picnics.”
In most cases, law-enforcement doesn’t have to worry about mainstream reporters. Those denizens simply take dictation from local cops and federal cops and their stories appear in papers and TV news broadcasts wiped clean of independent thought.
That leaves the truth a wide open field.
Private citizens and non-mainstream journalists own that field, not through edict, but through default. Don’t blame us. If you were doing your jobs, we wouldn’t have to do them for you.
Your first rule would be: stop lying.
Destruction of evidence is a felony. Those concert workers whose phones and laptops were wiped clean had a felony committed against them. By agents of government who have sworn to uphold and protect the Constitution.
Thousands of smart lawyers out there will say, “Come on, there’s no way you could make a charge like that stick.” Well, maybe there would be a way, if enough of you decided there has been enough destruction of the Constitution and it’s time to stand up and be counted, come hell or high water.
Meanwhile, whoever can look past the lies and fabrications and distortions of a criminal investigation can say something because they saw something.
Here is a quick excerpt from my recent piece about the FBI’s stance on crime probes. It should give you a clue about the Bureau’s attitude and reputation:

Weinstein Company Imploding as Talent Agencies, Financiers Prepare to Abandon Ship
Hollywood rocked as Weinstein brand goes up in flames
Talent agencies, investors, and even banks now view the Weinstein Company as “toxic,” and are preparing to sever ties with the production firm, according to insiders.
A new report details the turmoil rocking the entertainment industry as a result of the unfolding Weinstein scandal, which could radically alter the landscape in Hollywood and beyond.
One anonymous media executive likened the crisis to “a run on the banks,” explaining, “Banks aren’t going to continue to lend to them. You have agencies saying they will not allow talent to appear in their movies even if they re-brand. The equity is likely to get wiped out.”
There is speculation that the Weinstein Company (TWC) will likely change its name and purge Harvey’s name from credits on its many projects in an effort to cleanse the brand, but the damage could run so deep that the titanic firm valued as highly as $700 million just last year may never recover.

Dixon Road Community Calls for Support After Two Murders in a Week
A 16-year-old shot and killed in Toronto’s Dixon Road neighbourhood is being remembered as an enthusiastic and eager young boy.
Farhia Warsame, the director of the Somali Women and Children Support Network, said Zakariye Ali frequently attended her centre’s youth leadership program when he was 13 and 14 years old.
He was one of many children, she said, who was always excited to be there and often times did not want to leave the centre.
His death was one of two separate murders that shook the community over the span of a week. Last Thursday, Abdulkadir Bihi, 29, was fatally shot and found in a vehicle in front of an apartment building on Dixon Road.
Four days after his death, Ali died of his injuries in hospital following a triple shooting in the parking lot of Kingsview Village School on Dixon Road and Islington Avenue.
Warsame lost her own son to gun violence in 2015, she said, in a double murder in downtown Toronto. She was shocked, she said, and unable to speak out when it happened.
After seeing the families in her community grieving over the loss of their children this past week, she felt compelled to talk about the need for programs to help prevent gun violence in the neighborhood.
“Too many of us are burying our children because of the violence,” said Warsame. “Our community is underserved, no one is investing in our youth and supporting them.”…

Everyone Who Loves Justin Trudeau Should Support Jagmeet Singh
On Oct. 1, Jagmeet Singh won the leadership of the third party New Democratic Party on the first ballot. Singh’s election should have Justin Trudeau very very worried. Singh is everything Trudeau loves but can never be.
To begin with, Singh is a Sikh which means he is not white. And as we know Trudeau hates whites. He loathes the white race even though he is a member and he has never made a secret of that fact. The Little Potato especially hates the old stock Canadians; he even said as much. The man who is the highest elected official in this once great country said he prefers immigrants to Canadians who were born in Canada. This is because immigrants choose to come here. Okay, Singh is not an immigrant having been born in the subway-deprived Toronto area of Scarborough. But as we know, perception is reality in politics and Singh looks like an immigrant. Justin never can.

“What can we do against international criminality? Invest in the police, invest in the army and have the courage to invest in our own guns,” Zeman said. “My wife has a pistol. Of course, she passed all necessary tests, but now I am guarded by my wife, and not only by bodyguards.”

France: Facebook Islamists Hunt in Packs
[…] These Facebook users, like dozens of others, seem to be the victims of Islamist “packs”. Once the opinions and analyses of these Facebook users are noticed, they are denounced to Facebook as “racists” or “Islamophobes” and their accounts are deleted.
In France, Facebook deletes thousands of accounts every year. It would be interesting to know how many among them were deleted because their owners questioned Islamism, but no one knows: Facebook never communicates other than by bland boilerplate declarations that clearly seem intended to avoid explaining anything.
What we do know is that “Facebook has 4,500 ‘content moderators’ and that it recently announced plans to hire another 3,000”, according to The Guardian. 7,500 moderators for more than two billion Facebook users? That is ridiculous.
The Guardian continues: “There are moderating hubs around the world, but Facebook refuses to disclose their exact number or locations”. The question should be, in fact: Does Facebook outsource content moderation to subcontractors, and if so, to which?
In France, three companies appear to be competing as subcontractors for moderating online content: Netino, Concileo and Atchik Services. The “moderating hubs” of these companies are generally located in French-speaking countries with cheap labor, in North Africa and Madagascar. In France, rumors abound that Facebook’s moderators are located in French-speaking Muslim countries such as Tunisia, Algeria and Morocco. Facebook never confirms or denies outsourcing its “moderation” work to companies employing cheap Muslim labor in North Africa.

China Builds a Database of Taiwanese Citizens to Help it Recruit Spies
The Chinese regime is building a comprehensive database of Taiwanese citizens that can help it identify targets to spy on or to recruit as agents against Taiwan, according to an expert.
Peter Mattis, a China Program fellow at The Jamestown Foundation, said during a conference on Oct. 11 at the Jamestown Foundation that Taiwan has always been the prime target for the Chinese regime’s hostile intelligence activities, because “China makes no secret about the eventual goal of reunification [with Taiwan].”
Due to the close geographic proximity and the high volume of economic activity across the Taiwan Strait, at any given time there are one to two million Taiwanese citizens in the mainland of the People’s Republic of China. “This is a challenge that no other country faces when dealing with China,” said Mattis.

German Intelligence Claims Hezbollah, Hamas Fighters Among Asylum Seekers
German intelligence services have released a new report claiming that militant fighters from the extremist Hezbollah terrorist organisation were able to hide among asylum seekers during the height of the migrant crisis and smuggle themselves into Germany.
The report claims that many of the migrants fought for Shi’ite militia groups in Syria who largely worked with Hezbollah and Iran to support the regime of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. Whilst is it not entirely known how many Hezbollah militants have come to Germany as asylum seekers, the report estimates there to be 950 operatives of the group, the Jerusalem Post reports.
The intelligence report also claims that in the region of North Rhine-Westphalia membership of Hezbollah and the terror group Hamas has increased since last year. The number of Hezbollah members going from 100 in 2015 to 105 in 2016 and Hamas members increased from 65 to 75 over the same period.

Italy: Somalian Migrant Who Raped, Murdered and Tortured Other Migrants Given Life Sentence
Somalian asylum seeker Osman M. has been convicted of the rape, torture, and murder of fellow migrants whilst they were on their way to Europe.
Osman M., 22, was found guilty earlier this week in an Italian court after 17 of his migrant victims who had recognised him from their time in Libya testified against him. It is said that the 22-year-old, who was arrested in Milan in September of last year, had tortured the migrants to extort cash from their relatives, Die Welt reports.
Due to the fact that the Somalian was formerly the operator of a migrant camp in Libya, many migrants were within his reach and several ended up dying because he left their diseases untreated or purposefully starved them to death. Two young women said they had been raped by the migrant camp operator.

And who selected these “top neurologists”? A government with an agenda? Someone who wanted to maintain good relations with the Cuban regime?
Is it recommended that mugs critical of Islam avoid Britain? Unless, of course, the purpose of the visit is to explore the penal system as only an inmate can.
they have been repackaged are selling in the local pubs. Scots Whiskey is being served in them as “Mug Shots”
We laugh at incidents like the offensive mug in Britain, but I see it as evidence how deeply the poison has penetrated their society.
Remember the big blow up about piggy banks?
How about the Georgia Pork processing plant that was shut down for its brand “Macon Bacon”
It’s worse when you consider the “offensive” cup was decorated with Templar symbols.

It’s the Cross of St. George, which is also the design of the English flag.
This would lead to the suppression of the Union Jack in its entity. There are several crosses in it and thus constitutes a multiple and wacist offense of briti… excuse me, of people not having lived in Britain for a longer period.
Wow, I just realized how many depressing stories there are in this news feed.
We are clearly being lied to about Vegas, and those lies are coming from very high levels. You’d think the Deep State would have had a better ‘Narrative’ ready to roll.
The stabby wedding couple are typical of the types of savages we are dealing with, but of course those addled folks on the left will write them off as, “just a couple bad apples.”
The “stabby wedding couple” (good turn of phrase!) is indeed a “couple of bad apples”. But then the whole barrel is rotten fruit and the barrel itself is also rotting.
yep, and the whole narrative is smelling to high heaven. Eyewitnesses state that there were three shooters. A couple of conversations with some military folks I am acquainted with have said that it is well nigh impossible for one person to have fired off that many rounds in that time frame.
$64 million question, “Who allowed the other two shooters in the room and were they ‘security guards’?”
This is an interesting analysis of the shooters situation:
