I’m still in the throes of the site migration, waiting for the technical problems to be resolved on the upgraded server.
In the meantime, my email is affected. The mail server has a new IP address, and the DNS settings for it are still propagating across the Internet tonight. That means some of my email isn’t coming in — including from some of my regular tipsters — and may be lost forever, for all I know.
If you sent me an email today, and didn’t get an answer, or sent tips for items that don’t appear in tonight’s news feed, send the messages again in 24 hours. I hope by then the DNS settings for the mail server will have propagated everywhere.

New SEC Rule Means Holdings of Dalio, Einhorn, Soros and More Could Go Completely Dark
Some of the biggest investors in the world would see their holdings “go dark” if the SEC implements a new rule concerning Form 13F disclosures that it has recently proposed.
Names like Paulson, Einhorn, Druckenmiller, Bacon, Tudor Jones and Soros could all see an added layer of opacity to their holdings as a result of the SEC’s proposal to limit Form 13F filers to those who hold stakes of $3.5 billion or more. Even Ray Dalio, who manages $138 billion, could see added opacity to his holdings as a result of the rule. His firm holds only $5 billion in stocks.

AOC-Backed Progressive Unseats 30-Year Incumbent in NY Democratic Primary
A fifth Democrat backed by the DSA might be about to join Congress.
In a rare electoral victory for America’s inchoate “Democratic Socialist” movement (they lost a primary for a Queens DA seat last year, and haven’t really had any major successes since AOC’s primary victory over Joe Crowley, a member of the Congressional Democratic leadership and head of the Queens Democratic Party), former middle school principal Jamaal Bowman has defeated 16-term US Rep Eliot Engel in a Democratic Congressional Primary in New York.

Seattle City Council Member Suggests Firing White Officers in Massive Reduction of Police Department
The Seattle City Council is facing something of a dilemma in its popular pledge of the Seattle City Council to cut the police budget by 50 percent. To do so would require firing a significant number of police officers, which is also popular. The problem is that the firing would be done by seniority and many of the less senior officers are black.

The Media’s Jihad Against Sweden’s No-Lockdown Policy Ignores Key Facts
As soon as it became clear that the Swedish state had no plans to implement harsh lockdowns, global media organizations like the New York Times have implemented what can only be described as an ideological jihad against Sweden…
It is common to read articles stating that Sweden has one of the world’s worst death rates for COVID-19.
This, however, remains a matter of perspective.
Sweden’s total deaths per million in population as of July 14 is 549. That’s considerably lower than the deaths per million rate in the UK, which is 662, and in Spain, which is 608. In Belgium, the death rate is 884.
Moreover, the Sweden deaths per million is many times better than the rates found in New Jersey and New York: 1,763 and 1,669.

The Leftists Are Turning Our Kids Into Sleeper Cells
I realize it is tacky to be an I-told-you-so. But, we conservative activists have been fighting on the front-lines of the culture war for many years warning the masses. WAKE UP AMERICA…leftists are turning our kids into sleeper cells. At the proper time, leftists will unleash our kids to launch a violent no-holds-barred war against their parents, God and country!
Black disciples of socialism disguised as civil rights activists have also been allowed to sow their seeds of anti-American hate in public education for decades. In the 1970’s, I was a student at the prestigious Maryland Institute College of Art via scholarships. The Black Panthers showed up, angrily demanding a platform on campus to protest. College management humbly complied. As a black student, I never understood what I was suppose to be angry at the college about or how the college was abusing me.
Dad was a civil rights pioneer. He pressured me and my four younger siblings to always vote and join the NAACP. Upon attending my first NAACP meeting, I was stunned. They actually joined in a circle, held hands and sang, “We Shall Overcome”. Their rhetoric sounded like I had stepped through a time-warp back to 1950. Leftist institutions of indoctrination are still selling students, black and white, the absurd lie that America has not progressed racially beyond the 1950s.
I wrote about public elementary schools teaching white kids to hate themselves and feel guilty for being born white — about pre-k students being taught to embrace homosexuality and to consider changing their sex. The children’s book, “I Am Jazz” about a boy whose parents insanely began changing his sex at age 3 is read to kindergartners without parental consent and even mandatory in schools’ curriculum.
Pediatricians along with Pope Francis say teaching transgender ideology causes child abuse.
I wrote about a white friend who said her middle school son came home in tears after being taught how cruel his ancestors were to women, blacks and native-Americans. Today, her son is an adult member of the Communist party. She cannot display an American flag for fear of retaliation by her son.
