“Not the Same Joe”: Former Stenographer Says Biden’s Cognitive Ability Has Declined Significantly
Joe Biden’s former White House stenographer says the presidential candidate’s cognitive functioning and speaking ability has deteriorated significantly in the last few years.
Speaking to the Washington Free Beacon, Mike McCormick, who worked as a White House stenographer for 15 years and with Biden from 2011 to 2017, said the presidential candidate is “not the same Joe Biden.”
“He’s lost a step and he doesn’t seem to have the same mental acuity as he did four years ago,” said McCormick.

ACLU Associate Joins Online Backlash Against Nick Sandmann Being Offered College Place
An American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) associate has joined the online backlash against the news that Transylvania University admitted Nick Sandmann, a student who was falsely accused in the media of being aggressive towards Native American activist Nathan Phillips.
In January 2019, Nicholas Sandmann and other Covington Catholic High School students were recorded being confronted by a Native American activist. The interaction was wrongly interpreted by the media as the students verbally attacking Phillips — when later evidence showed that it was the other way around.

Article in MIT Technology Review Blames Conservative Journalists for Violent Riots
In a shocking display of gaslighting, a new article in MIT Technology Review attempts to make the argument that coverage of riots in independent media is to blame for spreading violence that has been seen across America. Joan Donovan’s position is that right-wing protestors have been fuelled by “riot porn” into taking to the streets themselves to attack, harass the “mostly peaceful protestors” who are flooding the streets of the nation.

Democrats Have Planned a Coup if Trump Wins Reelection
Under the pretext that President Trump will not step down if he loses reelection, Democrats and the military/security complex created the Transition Integrity Project. The plan they have worked out is to take the presidency regardless of the vote. Trump´s win is to be blamed on vote fraud, and Biden/Kamala are forbidden to concede their defeat. Instead, the presstitutes will conduct a propaganda campaign against Trump alleging election fraud in order to cast Trump´s reelection in doubt.
The propaganda campaign against Trump will be conducted by assertions and fake news just as was the Russiagate, Impeachgate, and other orchestrated false charges against Trump. The Democrats know that just like their other false allegations against Trump, the media will back them to the hilt and many dumbshit Americans will believe the lies. The presstitutes have done nothing for four years but try to discredit President Trump in the eyes of both Americans and the world.
The Democrat public-sector US Postal Union will not deliver mail-in votes for Trump from known Red areas.

Feckless Fauci Foments Fear to Keep the Sheep in Line
We´re all in this together! Every news channel told us that, including Fox. Nope, we sure as hell weren´t in this together. States like Michigan, Oregon, New York, New Jersey, Illinois, Virginia, North Carolina, California and others are still purposely keeping people from opening their businesses and making a living. In this together? Not by a long shot. First, businesses were fraudulently shut down by the lies of Dr. Fauci and gang, and now they´re being demolished by communist subversives in states run by democrats.
Marxist protestors have free rein, but many taxpayers who run businesses are literally eradicated never to rise again. It´s purposeful; it drags down the economic resurgence after Dr. Fauci´s false models were given to President Trump. Those models came from China´s good friend, Dr. Tedros Adhanom, Director-General of the World Health Organization (WHO)and were used to purposely destroy President Trump´s strong economy. Here´s the entire Fauci timeline on Covid…
Is it a coincidence that Dr. Fauci has a close relationship with Dr. Tedros Adhanom of WHO and that Dr. Adhanom is very tight with China? Is it a coincidence that WHO Director Adhanom gave Dr. Fauci the models for Covid-19 stating 2.2 million Americans would die? And isn´t it interesting that Dr. Fauci ran to President Trump with the false WHO models and told him the nation needed to be shut down for two weeks which ended up being several months and murdering the economy.
There are too many coincidences with Fauci, WHO, the democrats and other powers to believe this wasn´t a diabolical plan by the Deep State to annihilate the magnificent Trump economy. The communists in the Democrat Party don´t give a damn about anyone´s livelihood or businesses. They care only about succeeding to eliminate Trump and regaining their control to turn America into a socialist dictatorship. This pandemic was forecast a decade ago by the Rockefeller Foundation…
There´s far more money for Fauci and the NIH, and his friend Bill Gates in Remdesivir by Gilead than with a cheap, 65-year-old safe drug like HCQ. There´s also far more money to be made via vaccines that are not proven safe and are protected from lawsuits of those injured or killed by them. China holds the patent on the drug through an agreement with Gilead´s drug patent sharing subsidiary branch called UNITAID that has an office near Wuhan, and you´ll never guess who are the main financial investors in UNITAID…none other than George Soros, Bill & Melinda Gates, and WHO.

Geopolitics: How Maps Help Us Understand History, Predict the Future, and Go Beyond Politics
American students are notoriously bad at geography, and have been for some time. In 2002, for instance — the year after the 9/11 attacks — only 17% of American students could find Afghanistan on a map. In 2016, less than one third were able to score a minimal pass of 66% on the National Geographic Global Literacy Survey. In 2015, the United States Government Accountability Office reported that 75% of eighth grade students don’t even know what geography is. Picture your old-school geography class. More likely than not, it was a boring subject requiring rote memorization of global factoids, U.S. state names, and their capitals. This does American students a disservice, because an appreciation for the hidden power of geography helps one make sense of seemingly random historical tidbits, more accurately predict the future, and see beyond political rhetoric to what actually matters among nation-states.

Might Flu Shots Increase COVID-19 Pandemic Risk?
Osterholm and Belongia stress there is a “false claim that influenza vaccination increases the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection” promoted by Judy Mikovits and circulating online, and that “Scientists, health care providers, and public health leaders must counter these claims with clear, evidence-based information on the importance of influenza vaccination during the COVID-19 pandemic.”
But this so-called “false claim” is not a rumor pulled out of thin air. As is so often the case, Osterholm and Belongia are actually insulting fellow virologists and researchers when slapping a hoax label on such claims, seeing how there is published research showing that, yes, influenza vaccination appears to worsen outcomes during viral pandemics.
If Osterholm and Belongia wanted to be factual and clear, they should dissect the actual studies using scientific methods and reasoning, and not just dismiss them as made-up internet hoaxes.
The fact that peer-reviewed studies have come to the conclusion that previous flu vaccination seems to increase patients´ risk of contracting more severe pandemic illness at least worthy of consideration and review.

PORTLAND, Ore. — It’s been more than a week since a man was shot and killed at a protest in downtown Portland, but since then, the violence surrounding the protests hasn’t let up.

Professors at Portland State University tell KATU last week’s shooting brought us into a new phase of the protests, one that will likely lead to more violence before a resolution.

Report: White Prof Who Pretended to be Black Has History of Racially Insulting White Neighbors
A white George Washington University professor who made headlines last week after she admitted that she had built a career out of pretending to be black was driven by anti-American and anti-white activism in her younger years, according to a report.
The Daily Mail reported that Jessica Krug attended an exclusive school in Kansas City, Missouri, where those who knew her said she was “very political” and previously identified as both white and Jewish.
Prior to identifying as a black woman and getting a career teaching black history, Krug was apparently just another white campus leftist in late-1990s America.
An unidentified former associate of the race fraudster explained to the Daily Mail that Krug boycotted her own prom and instead planned a flag burning event while attending the Barstow School, from which she graduated in 1999.
The Daily Mail also reported that after getting a job teaching black history, Krug verbally attacked white people with racial rhetoric at the same time she embraced a black identity and authored divisive racial literature.

The British police response to Sunday’s Birmingham 90-minute killing spree with a knife was inadequate, József Horvath, security policy expert at Hungary’s Fundamental Rights Center think-tank told television channel M1 on Monday.

He said the available recordings of the incident make it obvious that the perpetrator is a young man with an African immigrant background.
Britain has become a multicultural country in recent years, and — as Horvath said — coexistence and intercultural divergence result in risks and problems, the management of which poses a great challenge to the country.

Exporting Western Style Democracy to Central Europe? Thanks, But No Thanks.
Democracy in Western Europe has its own shortcomings, thus Central and Eastern European countries are better off sticking to their own versions of it, Hungarian daily Magyar Hirlap’s Brussels correspondent writes in a new commentary:
“Belgium is a country where no one gets the policy they voted for,” Bob de Brabandere, senator of the Flemish Interest (Vlaams Belang), told Magyar Hirlap this summer. And he wasn’t joking either: Belgium still has no government after over a year and chances are that if it eventually does have one, it would be the result of very peculiar concept of democracy.
Just as a reminder: The general elections held last May were won by the right-wing New Flemish Alliance (N-VA) which received 16 percent of the votes, while the even more anti-immigrant Flemish Interest, placed second with 12 percent of the votes. The fact that any party can win the elections with 16 percent of the vote is itself an indication of the strangeness of Belgian politics, but the country is not only divided along the Flanders-Wallonia line.
Just last weekend, King Philippe of Belgium appointed Egbert Lachaert, the leader of the Flemish liberals (Open VDL), to form a government. Lachaert has initiated coalition talks with six other parties, none of which is the Flemish Interest or the N-VA. Should those talks succeed, they will still not have a majority to produce legislation.
In short, seven Belgian parties have come together to exclude the two biggest parties from government just because those parties have an anti-immigration stance.

One of the leaders of the march, who referred to himself as “Rainbow Surfer”, was arrested by the police for breaching the lockdown restrictions which prohibit the organizing of an event of more than 30 people, which has recently become punishable with a £10,000 fine.

Leading Scientists Question ‘Highly Improbable’ Russian Vaccine Results Published in Lancet
A group of prominent scientists and doctors has questioned the results of Russia’s research into a Covid-19 vaccine.
The group said there are a number of unexplained apparent duplications in Russia’s data — published in scientific journal The Lancet on Friday — concerning the antibody response of volunteers who took part in early stage trials of Russia’s Sputnik V vaccine.
“There are very strange patterns in the data,” Enrico Bucci, a biology professor at Temple University in the U.S. who has published an open letter highlighting the concerns told The Moscow Times.
“By strange patterns I mean there are duplicate values for different [groups of] patients … which cannot be,” Bucci said, in reference to results concerning the production of antibodies by groups of patients who had been tested with different formulations of the vaccine.

Upananda Brahmachari | HENB | New Delhi | Sept 7, 2020:: The nationalist broadcasting channel Shudarshan TV wanted to bust the racket of radical Islamic infiltration in Indian Administrative Services (IAS), Indian Police Services (IPS) and Indian Revenue Services (IRS) and so on.
In his prime programme, “Bidas Bol”, Shudarshan TV owner Suresh Chavhanke wanted to Expose the #UPSC_Jihad on and from Aug 28, in some parts.
But, some Jihadi elements knocked the door of Supreme Court of India to Sudarshan TV’s Bindas Bol on ‘UPSC Jihad’.
On the very Friday (Aug 28, 2020), the Supreme Court refused to impose a pre-broadcast ban on Sudarshan TV from telecasting ‘Bindas Bol’ programme. The programme was all set to report on the alleged infiltration of Muslims in the civil services, however unfortunately, hours later, the Delhi High Court decided to impose a ban on the telecast of the show while hearing a separate petition without taking proper cognizance of the order of the Supreme Court.
Sudarshan TV wanted to explore the cause and consequences of unbelievable increase of Muslim candidates in top UPSC Exams (IAS, IPS, IRS etc.) with an exception of public awareness on the matter.
As a matter of fact, Sudarshan TV unearthed a connection of Jihad motivated ‘Zakat Foundation’ to prepare IAS, IPS, IRS aspirants from Muslim society so that they can materialize their Islamic agenda after joining the top Indian services…

France: Asylum Seeker Brutally Stabbed in Middle of Paris Railway Station
An Afghan asylum seeker was brutally stabbed on Sunday in Paris’s Gare du Nord railway station, with the aftermath of the bloody attack caught on video and posted to social media.

In May 2018, an arson attack on an Asian grocery store in the North Rhine-Westphalian city of Wetter caused great concern among politicians and the public as many thought right-wing activists were behind it. Now, the real perpetrator, the Syrian shopkeeper himself, has been sentenced to three years in prison after being convicted of arson that put the lives of children at risk, German news portal Junge Freiheit has reported.
The Syrian, who came to Germany in 2015 as a part of a wave of over a million migrants, set his own shop on fire after he became ensnared in debt in an attempt to collect insurance money. He had opened the store only a few weeks earlier.

How Many Murders in Germany Committed by Refugees? The Government Refuses to Say
Germany has experienced a number of high-profile murders of young women in recent years at the hands of migrant men who entered Germany following the 2015 migrant wave. While the cases made headlines, true statistics involving how many murders refugees and migrants have been responsible for remains elusive.
Some of the most well-known cases involve 19-year-old medical student Maria Landenburger, who was raped and drowned in Freiburg by a refugee as well as 15-year-old Mia Valentin, who was murdered by an Afghan asylum seeker after she broke off their relationship. There is also the case of Susanna Feldman, a 14-year-old German-Jewish girl murdered by an Iraqi migrant.
In addition, the terrorist attack at Berlin’s Breitscheidplatz Christmas Market was also perpetrated by a refugee, Anis Amri, who entered Germany with over the 1.8 million refugees admitted to the country since 2015.

Sweden: Man With Congolese Citizenship Accused of 19 Robberies in Stockholm
A migrant man in his 20s has been charged with robbery and attempted robbery of 19 young people in Stockholm, Sweden. According to the prosecutor, he already has Swedish citizenship and, thus, cannot be deported if convicted.
The crimes that the man is suspected of took place between January and July this year in central Stockholm. Since July 18, he has been in jail.
According to prosecutor Maximillian Berg Molin, the man acted alone when threatening young people with violence while robbing them of their belongings, mainly mobile phones, but also headphones, clothes, and cash. His actions have been captured on surveillance cameras at ATMs and metro stations.
All victims of the perpetrator were born between 2002 and 2006, however, prosecutor Berg Molin said that the jailed man denies committing any crime.

Canada’s Liberal Party Drops LGBT Candidate Over 3-Year-Old Anti-Pride Flag FB Post
If there’s one thing you might learn from reports about the collapse of an attempt by the Liberal Party in the upcoming elections in Canada to co-opt an LGBT candidate — it might be that local media are now pioneering the use of the “LGBTQ2I+” acronym — possibly to keep things up to date and squeaky clean, language and political correctness-wise.
In that climate, John Gardner, with his 2017 “offensive” Facebook post really stood no chance of continuing his quest to run in the New Brunswick provincial election on behalf of the Liberals.
