Last week the Cancel Culture Marxists, led by popular Democrats, targeted Goya Foods and its CEO Bob Unanue after he praised President Trump at a White House event.

That’s when Republicans and Trump supporters launched their own campaign to buy Goya products — even suggesting buying their products and donating them to food pantries.

That’s when Twitter jumped into action and started banning Goya bean and spice photos on its platform.

Google Says it’s Not a Monopoly

Google’s business model is firmly linked to its role in online advertising — but does the giant dominate and control the market in a way that critics describe as anti-competitive at best, and tantamount to an actual monopoly at worst?

These accusations are now probed in various investigations launched around the world, including the one considered by the US Justice Department, that hope to get to the bottom of Google’s activities in the super-lucrative ad business.

Google continues to deny that its share in the global market means it is in fact acting like a monopoly. The gist of the argument seems to be that because users can deploy its ad tools with competitors — this means the market is fair.

Lincoln Project Editor Let Go After Old Tweets Resurface

When Donald Trump became US president in 2016, one of the big talking points and launchpads for attacks against him — besides the “Russians everywhere!” narrative — was his alleged raging misogyny.

In an ironic twist of fate, an ardently anti-Trump conservative activist has been pushed out of the Lincoln Project on exactly that latter charge — and just as the project was starting to get attention.

The Lincoln Project was formed late last year by a number of big current and former Republican names, with the sole apparent goal of preventing from getting Trump reelected; to this end, in April, the organization endorsed Democrat Joe Biden.

Museum Curator Resigns After He is Accused of Racism for Saying He Would Still Collect Art From White Men

Until last week, Gary Garrels was senior curator of painting and sculpture at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA). He resigned his position after museum employees circulated a petition that accused him of racism and demanded his immediate ouster.

“Gary’s removal from SFMOMA is non-negotiable,” read the petition. “Considering his lengthy tenure at this institution, we ask just how long have his toxic white supremacist beliefs regarding race and equity directed his position curating the content of the museum?”

This accusation—that Garrels’ choices as an art curator are guided by white supremacist beliefs—is a very serious one. Unsurprisingly, it does not stand up to even minimal scrutiny.

Czechia Ranked 28th Safest Country in Terms of Systemic Social Risk

According to the Social Risk Index (SRI) created by the credit insurance company Euler Hermes, the Czech Republic is the 28th safest country in the world in terms of systemic social risk.

According to Euler Hermes, the risky factors include mainly anti-government protests and other incidents, which could cause changes in the political and business climate of each country.

The SRI measures the underlying strengths, weaknesses, and perceptions of political, institutional, and social frameworks for 102 countries. However, the index does not gauge the probability of a social crisis, nor does it predict potential future social unrest events. It is rather a vulnerability indicator that focuses on the longer-term structural determinants of social risk.

UK Bans New Huawei 5G Equipment From 2021, Full Ban From 5G by 2027

Digital Secretary Oliver Dowden has confirmed the ban on the addition of new equipment from Huawei to UK 5G networks, and all Huawei components must be removed from Britain’s 5G by 2027. The move came after Five Eyes allies warned of the security risks of using the “effectively state-owned” Chinese tech firm.

Mr Dowden made the announcement in the House of Commons on Tuesday, weeks after the U.S. imposed sanctions on Huawei, barring the sale of American components to the Chinese company over security concerns. It represents a significant reversal by Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who agreed in January on a contract for Huawei to build 35 per cent of Britain’s 5G network.

The Bow Group has said it is “not reasonable” to tell Britons they must wear masks in shops, after weeks of witnessing lawlessness on the streets in the form of Black Lives Matter protests and other mass gatherings that have seen little police intervention.

From Friday, July 24th, it will be law in England to wear masks in supermarkets and shops. Police officers will have the power to fine people up to £100 if they are caught shopping without one. Like current regulations imposing mask-wearing on public transport, children under 11 and those with medical conditions are exempt.

Zybertowicz: Shocking That So Many Poles Voted for a Candidate Who Did Not Have a Single Polish Flag During Election Night

Andrzej Zybertowicz said it was “shocking, that 50 percent of my countrymen voted for a candidate whose staff did not consider it proper to display a Polish flag at his election night.”

The advisor admitted that he may have naively thought that the elections were a conflict over two visions for Poland in Europe.

Instead, he believes, that Rafal Trzaskowski’s political background was fighting not for a vision of Poland in Europe, but for a vision of removing Polishness from Poles.

So Many Jews Are Returning to Israel That the Govt. Is Worried They Won’t be Able to Absorb Them

Unlike immigration to other countries, olim to Israel are welcomed as long-lost brothers, educated and housed at great public expense. A combination of coronavirus and anti-Semitism is creating conditions expected to bring millions of Jews home. But the Israeli government, already stretched to the limit, is concerned they may not be able to fulfill the prophecy in the proper manner.

The Knesset’s Immigration, Absorption, and Diaspora Affairs Committee met last Wednesday to discuss a major dilemma: Jewish immigration is expected to double nest year but budgetary constraints will make it difficult, if not impossible to absorb them into Israeli society.

Earlier this month, Jewish Agency Chairman Isaac Herzog reported to the committee that an estimated 250,000 people, mostly young people, will immigrate to Israel within the next three to five years. Herzog added that the number of people who have contacted the Jewish Agency about Aliyah from English-speaking countries has increased by 50%, and by 70% from French-speaking countries.

Mousavi commented saying: “For the opening of Hagia Sophia for worship, which was accepted with satisfaction by the people of Turkey and Muslims, we also felt joy.”

The Ankara — Tirana Axis

(To Gian Pio Garramone)

Turkey is increasingly determined to impose its role as a bridge state between Europe and the Middle East. In the region it has managed to forge very solid relationships, projecting more and more its international influence and is very present in the Balkan states. The Turkish influence on the Balkans is not limited to simple political support on issues of international interest of the various states, but is concretized with aid and treaties.

Ankara supports many Balkan states but let’s dwell on the growing relations with the Republic of Albania. Taking into consideration the last months of last year and the first half of 2020, we will notice the intensification of relations between Ankara and Tirana, also thanks to the earthquake that occurred on 26 November last in the northern area, of magnitude 6.5 and the recent pandemic still in progress. The interventions are all-round and range from humanitarian aid, to reconstruction, to mutual support treaties.

Following the earthquake Ankara rushes to show closeness to the Albanian people: it is among the first countries to send USAR (Urban Search and Rescue) teams and TIKA or the cooperation and coordination agency of the ministry of culture and tourism sends and delivers 500 food packages and as many blankets for displaced persons. The Turks did not stop at the first phase of the emergency, but continued with further tangible gestures, starting already in the first days of January 2020 with the construction of 500 houses for the earthquake victims and the mosque in the city of Prezë.

In February, the EU offers 1,15 billion dollars for reconstruction to Albania, while Turkey alone donates 50 million dollars…

Updates From Libya

(To Filippo Del Monte )

The Turkish government’s decision to make the Hagia Sophia a mosque is part of the country’s re-Islamization process forcefully imposed by Erdogan after the failed military coup in July 2016.

Secular Turkey with the Armed Forces to guarantee the modernity wanted by Kemal Ataturk is dead, but from its ashes an ambitious power was born that must hide the contradictions of its transformation process behind the blanket of success in the international arena. The story of Hagia Sophia has in fact brought Turkey and its aggressive foreign policy back to the center of the public debate, based on the reconstruction of the old Ottoman sphere of influence in the Mediterranean from the Levantine coasts to Libya without excluding the Horn of Africa.

Libyan events are particularly affected by the neo-Ottoman approach of Erdogan’s policy and in recent days the striking contrast with Egypt is the litmus test of the ideas circulating in the Turkish and pro-Turkish milieu in Tripoli. Sarraj’s military victory over Haftar, the liberation of Tripolitania and the consequent siege to which Sirte is subjected have exacerbated the situation on the ground and cleared the cards in the chanceries. This is because no one — even among the most highly rated professionals — expected such a sudden collapse of Haftar’s forces.

In response, it seems that Emirati planes hit the Turkish base of al-Watiya, west of Tripoli, on 5 July without causing victims but sending a clear message to Ankara: the war in Libya has not yet been won and therefore Turks cannot feel free to behave like colonizers. If on the part of the NATO allies of Turkey, with France in the lead, the Turkish military deployment in Libya is considered unsustainable or, according to the (too much) soft line adopted by the United States and Italy, unwelcome and judged as a dangerous interference, for the declared enemies of Ankara (United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia above all) the declared objective is to drive the Turks out of Libya…

Russian Suspected of Spying for Czechia Accused of Treason

Ivan Safronov, a former Russian journalist and now an adviser to the head of the Russian space agency Roscosmos, whom the Russian authorities suspect of cooperating with the Czech intelligence service, was accused of treason on Monday. If convicted, he faces up to 20 years in prison. According to his lawyers, Safronov denies the claim.

“My client was charged under Article 275 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, which means treason. He did not admit guilt,” lawyer Ivan Pavlov said to the TASS agency. “The FSB investigators showed us no evidence. They will hardly do so now,” Pavlov added.

Flooding in China Has Resulted in 141 People Missing or Dead and 38 Million Displaced — Could Get Much Worse if Three Gorges Dam Breaks

Millions have been displaced in China due to recent flooding in the country.

The Asian Review reports:

Despite reassurances by the government, residents along China’s rivers are increasingly worried that the mitigation capabilities of the Three Gorges Dam might fail after heavy rains lashed parts of the country.

Some 141 people are already missing or dead, and nearly 38 million people have been evacuated since alerts were triggered in June about the flooding of 433 rivers nationwide, the country’s flood control authorities said on Monday.

WHO Will Not Investigate Wuhan Lab Where Coronavirus Was Kept

The World Health Organisation announced Monday that it will not be visiting the Wuhan Institute of Virology during its investigation into the origins of the coronavirus, despite the fact that the lab held samples of coronavirus that were almost exactly the same as that which caused a global pandemic.

The WHO stated that its mission will only seek to “advance the understanding of animal hosts for Covid-19 and ascertain how the disease jumped between animals and humans”.

Australia’s Bureau of Meteorology Disappears Past Heat Records

On January 13, 1939, The Sydney Morning Herald reported:

‘Based on officially recorded maximum temperatures … the registration of 124 degrees (51.1°C) at White Cliffs was the highest recorded in New South Wales since the record for the State, 125 degrees (51.7°C) was made at Bourke in 1909.’

Yet, if you look at BOM’s current records for ‘New South Wales Climate Extremes’, these heat records of the past have disappeared — and nothing 50°C or over is listed.

The Hottest Day Ever in Australia Confirmed: Jan. 1909

The Australian Bureau of Meteorology deleted what was long regarded as the hottest day ever recorded in Australia, Bourke’s 125°F (51.7°C) on Sunday, January 3, 1909.

This record* was deleted, falsely claiming that this was likely some sort of ‘observational error’, as no other official weather stations recorded high temperatures on that day.

However, the Liberal Member for Hughes, Craig Kelly, has visited the Australian National Archive at Chester Hill in western Sydney to view very old meteorological observation books.

It has taken Kelly some months to track down this historical evidence. Through access to the archived book for the weather station at Brewarrina, which is the nearest official weather station to Bourke, it can now be confirmed that a temperature of 123°F (50.6°C) was recorded at Brewarrina for January 3, 1909.

French Government Releases Statistics Showing Rapid Demographic Changes Since 1968

France Stratégie, a group affiliated with the French Prime Minister’s Office, has released data showing the growth in numbers of non-European migrant children in French urban areas. In one notable example, greater Paris saw a rise of 6.5 per cent in 1968 to 36.6 per cent in 2015.

The group released the figures in an interactive form on its website which shows a variety of factors, including the percentage of children from birth to 18 who are either foreign-born or have at least one non-European parent. The release is extraordinary as the French government does not normally publish — or even officially collect — much in the way of statistics that relate to race or demographics, in line with French law.

Hungary: The Strangest Migrants: From a Salsa Band to Grandpa in a Wheelbarrow

While illegal immigration remains a real and present threat on Hungary’s southern and eastern borders, conservative daily Magyar Nemzet gathered the strangest crossing attempts ranging from the entertaining to the down right stupid.

While Europe as a whole only experienced the first major migration wave of the new millennium in the summer of 2015, Hungary was faced with one just a few months earlier. When inter-ethnic fighting broke out in Kosovo around the 2014 Christmas holidays, the south Hungarian city of Szeged became a virtual refugee center: several gyms at the local schools had to be converted to temporary shelters for the Albanian minority fleeing the violence.

Parents Failing to Impose Boundaries Spawned ‘Infantilised’ Millennial Generation

The failure of parents to impose rules on children has resulted in a generation of “infantilised” young people, for whom the only tolerable boundaries are their self-constructed “safe spaces”, according to sociologist Frank Furedi.

In his book, Why Borders Matter, the emeritus professor of the University of Kent at Canterbury said the age group sometimes referred to as the snowflake generation is the result of three to four generations of parents failing to transmit their values to their children through boundaries.

  1. “Can an Extreme Low Carb Diet be Used as Medicine?”
    I did my own research on the topic over the last two or three years and I, for a while, I have tried it myself and I have to say I felt great, but it is indeed hard to follow if you still wanna be social.

    That said, the posted article is wrong about a major point: carbohydrates are definitely NOT our natural main source of energy. In nature, carbohydrates are extremely rare. Our prehistoric ancestors would’ve stocked up on carbohydrates during summer, but for the rest of the year, there’s barely any potentional carbohydrate food source around. It’s also important to keep in mind that ancient fruits were tiny and far less sweet that today’s variations. Same goes for corn: even wheat 50 years ago had much more protein and less carbohydrates than today. Bigger yields mean the corns are more sugary, as the plant can only provide that much protein.
    Similarily beef, milk and butter has a completely different vitamin and mineral profile if the cow is allowed to pasture and it’s an extremely healthy food that way. But cattle raised on corn and soy doesn’t provide those nutrients.

    Imagine a bear just before his winter sleep: he’s almost diabetic, because he stocked up on all those berries and other sweet treats nature provides over the summer. But then he burns it all off during winter.
    Humans are a lot like bears in that regard, but civilization allowed us to have sweet treats all year round and those sweet treats are significantly more sugary than nature intended.
    That’s the whole point behind the ketogenic diet research.

    In other words: if you grow most of your own food, lots of it are old, local varieties, and you cook and eat your own food, or you can buy from a good farmer, then you’re fine eating whatever way you want. Because although a carb-rich diet isn’t doing you any good in the long term, chances are that “long term” is still gonna be well into your 90’s (research shows this for the Japanese, who tend to eat well despite their busy lifestyles).
    But if you have to buy from the grocery store or even have to rely on processed foods, the ketogenic diet is something that could improve your health significantly.

    • Keto could be the fountain of youth. In the best shape ever and wearing jeans from high school.
      Strictly controlled diet with several brisk walks daily.
      Suffer the pain of discipline or suffer the pain of regret.

    • I don’t think that eating meat is healthy.
      It puts a lot of heavy work on the kidneys.you may loose weight fast but you will not keeping it off

    • Glad to hear it. Ezra typically unearths information ignored by other media. I still have one of his books ftom years ago called “Fight Kyoto” when the various UN initiatives were getting underway. Ezra’s book was an rye-opener, and I still occasionally consult it. He documents his claims with footnotes. The research is very solid.

  2. ‘ The leader of the far-right organization Identitarian Movement contravened YouTube’s hate speech policies, according to Google, the platform’s owner. Martin Sellner also had his Twitter account suspended last week.’

    Disappointing. However, there are alternatives available for Martin Sellner:

    Bitchute for videos. As far as I know, Bitchute has not taken down un-PC videos.

    Parler, Gab, and Minds for social media.

  3. Forest Rambo! Me likey. Now if could organize some like minded fellows and stop the rot in Germanystan.
    Surely there are some chips off the old block from the brave German soldiers who fought in WWII.
    Everyone knew the gig was up after Stalingrad and Kursk or Prokhoravka but yet they kept on fighting.
    The Russians had NKVD officers with machine guns set up in the rear to shoot anyone retreating or falling back while the Germans didn’t need any of that.
    U-Boat crews still went out even though it was most likely a suicide mission.
    The Luftwaffe took on six different air forces at once and pilots flew until they were dead, maimed or captured.
    Yes they were fighting for a flawed benevolent ideology but I have to respect their bravery, honor, valor and pride.

    • The pity of it is that the ones who were the bravest and kept fighting until they were killed were replaced by the descendants of the ones who never went off to war or managed to stay out of the front lines and thus avoided dying during the war.

      I suppose it isn’t too shocking that modern Germany is full of pusillanimous leftist surrender monkeys that would make the French envious. Two generations of brave nationalistic soldiers dying in two world wars certainly blew a very big hole in the gene pool.

      • “I suppose it isn’t too shocking that modern Germany is full of pusillanimous leftist surrender monkeys that would make the French envious. Two generations of brave nationalistic soldiers dying in two world wars certainly blew a very big hole in the gene pool.”

        Most of those troops were conscripts, Moon, everybody fought.

        • Maybe almost everyone was drafted or served voluntarily. But that doesn’t mean that all of them fought equally hard.

          The true believers, and those that felt some sense of duty to protect their country and their families and women from the Soviets after the war started to go poorly would have fought the hardest and wouldn’t have tried to shirk their duty. And many of those men would have not made it through the war.

          • All very well, but the Waffen SS were more likely to commit atrocities, such as killing prisoners and civilians.

          • Mark H, The Waffen SS fought hard and were ruthless, because in war you have to be. My own Grandfather was Waffen SS on my mothers side. Who do think broke out Skorzeny out of prison? My GrandFather spoke about a dozen languages and was genius level smart. War isn’t a set of rules, it is kill or be killed and the Waffen SS didn’t just shoot civilians for the grins of it. Your own Tommies shot prisoners out of hand all the time, so did Americans and especially the bloody Russians.

  4. There were major atrocities and heroics committed by all sides in the war.
    The Germans won hands down and up.

  5. The human condition. Germany having its moment. It was not the first country and it won’t be the last.
