Bitcoin Crashes After China Rules All Crypto-Related Transactions Illegal

The People’s Bank of China revived its tough stance on digital currencies on Friday, ruling all crypto-related trading activities illegal and banning overseas crypto exchanges from providing services to mainland investors.

The regulator announced plans to bar financial institutions, payment companies and internet firms from facilitating cryptocurrency trading, as well as to strengthen monitoring of risks from such activities.

“Overseas virtual currency exchanges that use the internet to offer services to domestic residents is also considered illegal financial activity,” the PBOC said in a Q&A posted to its website.

Financial institutions and non-bank payment institutions cannot offer services to activities and operations related to virtual currencies,” the central bank said.

The move sent bitcoin and other virtual currencies plummeting. The world’s number one digital asset by market capitalization dropped over 5% to below $42,000. Other cryptocurrencies followed the declining trend with ether dropping 10% to below $2,800, while dogecoin crashed over 8% to below $0.20, according to the Coinmarketcap website.

“It’s a Ghost Town” — Shocking Images Show Downtown Chicago “Depressingly” Empty During Day

Authored by Mark Glennon via Wirepoints.org

“Have you been downtown lately? It’s nearly empty.”

Canal Street

We hear comments like that more and more often from alarmed readers in the Chicago area. We see it, too, and it’s worsening. So we’re putting up a few pictures for those who haven’t visited lately, and adding the perspective of one downtown restaurant owner.

We took the pictures downtown on Thursday between 9:30 AM and 1:30 PM.

Things seemed to be improving a bit over the summer, but no longer.

Is it COVID, crime or the new trend to remote working?

Florida Judge Halts City’s COVID-19 Vaccine Mandate

Authored by Zachary Stieber via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours)

A judge in Florida on Wednesday blocked a city’s COVID-19 mandate from taking effect.

Circuit Judge Monica Brasington, a Sen. Rick Scott appointee, granted a request for an emergency injunction. That means the mandate, which was slated to take effect on Oct. 1, is blocked for now.

“The city did not put on any evidence, at all, at the injunction hearing,” Brasington wrote in a 7-page ruling.

“Without any evidence, the court is unable to consider whether the vaccine mandate serves a compelling interest through the least restrictive means, whether the vaccine mandate meets a strict scrutiny test, a rational basis test, or whether it meets any other standard,” she added.

COLLIERVILLE, Tenn. — The man who opened fire at a Tennessee supermarket was a “third-party vendor” who wounded 15 people — one fatally — before taking his own life, police said Friday.

Stop Le Steal: France’s Macron is Quietly Changing Election Dates and Pushing Mail-in Voting to Hold Onto Power

France’s summer was marred by the rollout of a national vaccine passport and the ensuing protests which continue to take place every Saturday across the country. In the midst of this social tension, a politically significant event was given little note.

In July, the French Interior Ministry — responsible for organizing national elections — presented the official dates for the upcoming and much anticipated 2022 Presidential election. While every French Presidential election runoff has occurred in early May since 1974, the government, with the approval of the nation’s council of Ministers, opted to advance the dates of the election to April 10th for the first round and April 24th for the runoff vote.

This change is significant because it conflicts with national public holidays.

Brexit leader Nigel Farage has criticised Boris Johnson for returning from his first in-person meeting with Joe Biden without hopes of starting negotiations for a trade agreement, remarking that a deal should have been struck during the Donald Trump administration.

UK: Extinction Rebellion: Paralympian James Brown Jailed for Plane Glue Stunt

A former Paralympic champion who glued himself to the roof of a plane during an Extinction Rebellion protest has been jailed for a year.

James Brown, who is visually impaired, climbed on to the British Airways plane at London City Airport in October 2019.

The 56-year-old glued his right hand to the Amsterdam-bound plane, wedging his phone in the door so it wouldn’t close.

“You cynically used your disability to put your plan into action,” Judge Gregory Perrins said.

The double gold medallist from Exeter was sentenced to 12 months’ imprisonment, of which he will serve half, at Southwark Crown Court.

UK: Social Distancing Could Return if COVID Cases Increase This Winter, Says Professor Lockdown

Social distancing could return in the Winter if there is a “significant uptick” in hospital admissions for the Chinese coronavirus, but a “full-blown lockdown” is unlikely, Professor Neil Ferguson has said.

The remarks come after months of government officials preparing Britons to be ready to accept yet more restrictions after the end of measures that Prime Minister Boris Johnson had said were “irreversible”.

Caroline Glick: Israel’s “Blame My Predecessor” Iran Strategy

Last week, Foreign Policy magazine published an interview with Defense Minister Benny Gantz. In it, Gantz said that Israel has dropped its opposition to the Biden administration’s plan to return to the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran. With Gantz’s statement, the full expanse of the Lapid-Gantz-Bennett government’s strategy for contending with Iran’s nuclear program has come into view. And it is deeply alarming.

Over the past several weeks and months, the discourse about Iran’s nuclear program has been dominated by the question of how far Iran is from “nuclear breakout.” Nuclear breakout is the point at which a state has the independent capacity to build a nuclear weapon at will, within a relatively short time. Such states are referred to as “nuclear threshold states.”

Soon after he took office in January, U.S. Secretary of State Tony Blinken said that Iran was 3-4 months away from nuclear breakout. Now, eight months on, the Biden administration says Iran is up to a month away from nuclear breakout.

These alarming claims are nothing new. In February 2020 for instance, the U.S. assessed that Iran was up to four months away from nuclear breakout.

The contradictions and disputes about when Iran would be able to build atomic bombs at will don’t mean the assessments are worthless. They are important guideposts for policymakers. The disparities between where Iran’s nuclear capabilities stood at the time the assessments were made and where it supposedly stands today don’t mean that the assessments were necessarily wrong. Instead they indicate that something has been happening over the past decade or so that has slowed down Iran’s nuclear progress and blocked it from reaching nuclear breakout, despite its efforts and apparent progress towards the nuclear finish line…

Chinese Reporter Demands ‘Iron Fist’ Against ‘Arrogant Countries’ Challenging China

In response to Lithuania exchanging diplomatic offices with Taiwan, Chinese television host Tian Liu called for the Chinese Communist Party to confront the European country with an “iron fist.”

The reporter also pledges that “any country that challenges our country’s red lines must pay a price.”

“How dare such a small country challenge our great nation,” she asks before reiterating, “let’s teach them a lesson.”

Investigation: U.S. Has Funded Over 250 Studies for Chinese Military Researchers

Various National Institutes of Health agencies — including Anthony Fauci’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases — have funded over 250 studies authored by researchers at institutions controlled by China’s People’s Liberation Army, The National Pulse can exclusively reveal.

Following a unique investigation into the origins of scientific research papers, the whopping level of collaboration with the Chinese military will further concerns in the United States that the political class has surrendered to the Chinese Communist Party. Last week it emerged that the ranking General in the U.S. Armed Forces agreed to tip off China in advance of a U.S.-led attack.

The unearthed studies, from the National Institutes (NIH) online database, expand upon the People’s Liberation Army’s (PLA) ties to the Wuhan Institute of Virology unearthed by The National Pulse.

It’s All Making Sense Now Why the Laws in Australia Were Changed That the Globalists Foreign Troops Being Sent Here

The Globalists who have installed over a year ago,a deadly Globalised, privatised, and violent Police force, within the Victorian Police units ,will disguise some of themselves as protesters.

They’ll be violent, to then blame the innocent protesters, and may even deliberately shoot some local innocent ictorian Police, to use as an excuse as a major crackdown, to justify the killing dozens of protesters as the murder of one already isn’t enough.

One protester is already shot in the head left to die ( didn’t hear that on mainstream media I bet — left laying in a pool of blood with a cracked skull after Police shot him, as we reported on ANR yesterday )

The hapless gullible public will believe what ever the Globalists tv controlled channels tell them, ( protesters are bad — so those who can’t think for themselves go — ok what ever you say must be true as my brain is dead from a lack of use )

Those Globalist controllled channels are the ABC , Channel 7,9,10 and the Newspapers.

The local police across Australia must prepare for war against these installed Globalised police and army, as when they discover they are here to complete the take over of our country, and are the enemy of the people,many Police will break ranks.( many are threatening to now)

They have a plan to nullify this by minimising the ammunition local police get,verse the machine guns etc the enemy Globalised Police and soldiers have been given…

More Disgusting Police Brutality in Australia as Orange Vest Protests Continue

There were more disgraceful examples of police brutality in Australia as construction workers continued to protest against the shut down of their industry and mandatory vaccinations.

Constructions workers in the state of Victoria were told by their union they’d be forced to get the COVID-19 jab or face being fired, prompting major unrest in Melbourne.

In another slap in the face, the government then announced a two week shut down of construction work to punish the protesters.

Demonstrators hit the streets again today but were met with yet more vulgar examples police brutality, including one incident caught on camera where a protester who was already pinned to the ground was stuck by a knee to the back from a riot cop who took a run up.

Czech PM: The Extinction of Europe Won’t be Prevented Through Migration, But by Increasing the Birthrate

The Czech Republic’s prime minister rejects the idea that immigration must be promoted in order to save an aging Europe all while family formation and births plummet, according to remarks he made Thursday at the Demographic Summit in Budapest, Hungary.

“Mass and uncontrolled migration to Europe has nothing to do with the sustainability of our European society — quite the contrary. The only truly sustainable solution against the extinction of Europe is to increase the birth rate of the indigenous population, which is a path shared by the V4 countries,” said Czech Prime Minister Babis.

Illegal Migrants Flood Into Germany From Poland Amid Lukashenko’s Hybrid War

The number of illegal migrants making their way westward, from the geographical periphery of the European Union to the inner heartland of the bloc, has risen sharply in the past several weeks as Belarusian President Lukashenko presses ahead with his hybrid war strategy.

Compared to August, which saw 474 migrants enter Germany illegally from Poland, German Federal Police recorded 760 illegal entries into the country in the first three weeks of September alone, a spokesperson for the Federal Ministry of the Interior said.

Illegal Migrants Behave Like Tourists in Belarus

The Polish Border Guard posted a series of photos on Twitter taken from the phones of illegal migrants, with the photos showing migrants spending their first few days in Minsk taking a stroll and seeing the sights. Only afterward are they transported to the Polish-Belarusian border to cross into Poland.

“The photos revealed from the phones of illegal migrants show that they travel to Belarus for tourism purposes and visit the country’s capital for a few days, then they are transported to the Polish border, where they try to illegally break into Europe,” the Border Guard posted on Twitter.

It Never Happened: Photographer Who Took Viral Border Patrol ‘Whipping’ Photo Says Nobody Was Whipped

The latest viral outrage over photographs of Border Patrol agents ‘whipping’ (now-moved) Haitian migrants with horse reins has just been debunked by the man who took the photo.

The photographs, taken Sunday, appear to show agents on horses using horse reins to ‘corral’ Haitian migrants — sparking frenzied outrage from the left, including President Biden promising that the agents involved ‘will pay,’ and Vice President Kamala Harris calling for “consequences and accountability” in a Friday appearance on the Covid-stricken The View.

Except, the entire thing is bullshit according to Las Cruces-based photographer Paul Ratje — who told KTSM it never happened.

“Some of the Haitian men started running, trying to go around the horses,” he said, adding “I’ve never seen them whip anyone.”

“He was swinging it, but it can be misconstrued when you’re looking at the picture.”

Orban: Mass Migration Agenda Part of ‘Global Plan’ To Create ‘New Proletariat’ In the West

Hungary’s Prime Minister Viktor Orban believes the mass migration agenda is part of a “global plan” to create a “new proletariat” in the West, advanced by people who care nothing for culture and national identity and consider only economics.

Speaking at the 4th Budapest Demographic Conference, organised as a forum where pro-family policies and other measures to reverse population decline without resorting to mass immigration, Orban addressed attendees including former U.S. Vice President Mike Pence, the President of Serbia, the Serbian President of Bosnia, and the prime ministers of Slovakia and Slovenia, noting that the cause of national conservatism had “suffered sensitive political losses” in recent years.

Pence in Hungary: You Can be for Working-Class Families or Open Borders — Not Both

Former Vice President Mike Pence has praised the efforts of national conservative governments in Central Europe to reverse demographic decline through pro-family policies over mass migration in Budapest.

Speaking at the 4th Budapest Demographic Summit in Hungary, President Trump’s former running mate was effusive in his praise for the country’s prime minister, Viktor Orban, and other national leaders in attendance for their efforts to rebuild the family, observing that “the leaders of government who are gathered here… know strong families make strong communities, and strong communities make strong nations.”

Activists Slam Minnesota School Board Over Sex Ed That Has Students Role Play Trans or Gay Relationships

Activists and parents spoke out earlier this week against a sex-ed program used in a Minnesota school district that has the students role play as transgender or gay partners in sexual relationships.

“Parents are intentionally being deceived and misled about what their children are being taught,” one speaker said at the Richfield School Board meeting on Monday.

The curriculum in question is the 3Rs, a program created by Advocates for Youth, a group partnered with Planned Parenthood, according to Fox News.

“Programs like 3Rs are not effective,” said activist Julie Quist, a Child Protection League board member. Another speaker noted that, “this type of teaching has no place in our schools.”

Brave Introduces Brave Talk, A Private Zoom Alternative That Works Directly in the Browser

Privacy and security-first Brave browser users can now use the final version of Brave Talk — a video conferencing feature that doesn’t require installation of additional apps or add-ons.

Video conferencing has seen a boom during the pandemic, and even the rise of highly successful alternatives to some apps previously dominating that market — but from Skype to Zoom, most are severely lacking in the privacy department. Announcing Brave Talk on the company blog, its makers mention some of these apps’ most contentious features happening under the hood: call monitoring, collecting metadata, and collecting people’s data that can be monetized by selling or sharing without user consent.

Video: School Board Attempts to Silence Parent Reading Out Pedo Porn Books From Its Own Library

A school board in Virginia attempted to cut off a mother who read out loud from disgusting pedophilia porn books stocked in the school’s own library as part of a “diversity and inclusion” drive.

Stacy Langton addressed Fairfax High School officials on the matter, reading from two books she discovered at the institution.

Langton said “After seeing a September 9th school board meeting in Texas on pornography in schools, I decided to check the titles at my child’s high school, Fairfax High School. The books were available, and we checked them out. Both of these books include pedophilia, sex between men and boys.”

She added that “The illustrations include fellatio, sex toys, masturbation, and violent nudity.”

Woman With Down Syndrome Loses Challenge to UK Eugenic Abortion Law

A British court decided Thursday against a young woman with Down syndrome who challenged a law permitting the abortion of children with her condition up to birth.

While abortions in England, Wales, and Scotland are forbidden after 24 weeks of pregnancy, an exception is made when there is “a substantial risk that if the child were born it would suffer from such physical or mental abnormalities as to be seriously handicapped,” in which case abortion may be performed at any time before birth.

  1. pulling two memes together:-

    1. Milley was afraid that President Trump would declare war on China.

    2. China released a (bio)weapon of mass destruction (covid) at the Armed forces games in October 2019

    https://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2021/09/25/what-really-happened-in-wuhan.aspx?ui=06881ac2c56af040cac08a8804ebb8aa0568a3db5a0a0f119d7e2071b455e31d&sd=20200708&cid_source=dnl&cid_medium=email&cid_content=art1HL&cid=20210925_HL2&mid=DM990995&rid=1274019309

    Milley appeared not to know how much President Trump knew about Chinese warmongering, and thus staged a military takeover at the behest of his Chinese bosses just in case the President got wind of of the Chinese malevolence.

    Question is – how did Milley know?

    How many American sevicemen’s lives was Milley prepared to sacrifice by his ‘heroic’ actions…..?

  2. One of the curators of the replacement migration is deported from Russia.
    Suffice it to say that she received grants from IOM and Caritas.
