The day after receiving the impeachment articles, the upper chamber ended months of House GOP efforts against the Homeland Security secretary.

Senate Democrats quickly voted to adjourn the impeachment trial against Alejandro Mayorkas after deeming it unconstitutional — ending proceedings on Wednesday without any votes to convict or acquit.

In short – the purpose of war is to keep the ruling class in power while the lower classes remain powerless.

Nomadic Greetings!

Well, it’s finally happening: tomorrow, I will return home.

For the past few days, I’ve been the happy guest of friends in Auronzo di Cadore, Italy. This small town is a tranquil place in the Dolomites, the perfect place to end this long journey. Tomorrow morning, I will drive to Ljubljana, Slovenia and then spend the rest of the day flying to Oregon. If all goes as planned, I will arrive back at the starting point on Thursday night, exactly six months after beginning this trip.

There’s another new photo gallery, but from almost two months ago! Here is Arkhangelsk:

Speaking of things heating up, the BBC ran an article yesterday that surprised no one except the entire Biden Administration. It bore the unfortunate headline, “Russia to grow faster than all advanced economies, says IMF.” The sub-headline added, “An influential global body has forecast Russia’s economy will grow faster this year than all of the world’s advanced economies, including the US.”

The headline should have read, “Joe Biden loses World War III.”

That wasn’t all yesterday. Bloomberg ran a similar story, this one headlined, “Russian Crude Shipments Surge to the Highest in Almost a Year.” It is now undeniable that the Biden Administration’s highly-publicized sanctions war against Russia has catastrophically failed. The U.S.’s faltering economy was well described yesterday in a Barrons article headlined, “Inflation Could Stick Around Much Longer. What to Do About It.”

A financial analyst quoted for the Barron’s story explained, “The backdrop of continued geopolitical stress is contributing to more persistent inflation and more caution.”

The Anglo-Saxon Mission, explained by Bill Ryan : a Project Avalon video.

“In January of 2010, Project Camelot received 11 pages of information from an insider who was physically present at a meeting of Senior Masons in the City of London in 2005. What was discussed is chilling to the bone. What our source reports is this: * There is a planned Third World War, which will be nuclear and biological. Our source believes that this is on track to be initiated within the next 18-24 months. * It is planned to begin with a strike by Israel on Iran. Either Iran or China will be provoked into a nuclear response. After a brief nuclear exchange, there will be a ceasefire. The world will be thrown into fear and chaos – all carefully engineered. * The extreme state of tension will be used to justify heavy social and military controls in all western first world nations. Plans are already in place for that. * During the nuclear ceasefire, there is planned to be a covert release of biological weapons”.

Have a look at this fascinating video and keep in mind as you watch it that it was recorded and released in 2010.  This is the first time  had ever heard of it actually and I watched it today with interest. The parallels to current events taking place is stark. After the video ends there is a 23 page document that follows and you may want to read that as well. So it is linked.

A technical sell signal for the Nasdaq has hit levels not seen since the tech bubble.

However, it should be taken in the context of a still supportive economic backdrop, with buoyant excess liquidity and low near-term recession risk.

The Hindenburg Omen compares the percentage of stocks in a stock index making new 52-week lows versus 52-week highs.

For the Nasdaq, more omens have triggered so far this year than in any calendar year since the 2000 tech-driven top.

Genomic research of Fusobacterium nucleatum isolated from colon cancer tumors may help researchers develop future screening tests and cancer vaccines

Pinning down colon cancer’s genetic or environmental causes has been a complex and long-running quest, but a new study in Nature points to a promising clue: a bacterium typically found in the human mouth. The study found that a specific subtype, or clade, within a subspecies of Fusobacterium nucleatum was linked to colon cancer growth and progression. These results, the study authors say, could lead to better noninvasive diagnostic methods for colon cancer and could even suggest new therapies targeting these bacteria for tumor elimination.

American forces did most of the heavy lifting responding to Iran’s retaliation for the attack on its embassy in Damascus.

More than half of Iran’s weapons were destroyed by U.S. aircraft and missiles before they ever reached Israel. In fact, by commanding a multinational air defense operation and scrambling American fighter jets, this was a U.S. military triumph.

The extent of the U.S. military operation is unbeknownst to the American public, but the Pentagon coordinated a multination, regionwide defense extending from northern Iraq to the southern Persian Gulf on Saturday. During the operation, the U.S., U.K., France, and Jordan all shot down the majority of Iranian drones and missiles. In fact, where U.S. aircraft originated from has not been officially announced, an omission that has been repeated by the mainstream media. Additionally, the role of Saudi Arabia is unclear, both as a base for the United States and in terms of any actions by the Saudi military.

The House Administration Committee’s oversight panel, led by Barry Loudermilk (R-Ga.), is holding a hearing Wednesday on the military’s response on Jan. 6. One of the witnesses previously sent a memo to the Jan. 6 Committee accusing two senior leaders of lying to Congress, and they are expected to contradict previous statements by the Army in Wednesday’s hearing.

The witnesses, first shared with POLITICO, are:

Col. Earl Matthews, chief legal adviser, D.C. Army National Guard
Sgt. Maj. Michael Brooks, senior enlisted officer, D.C. Army National Guard
Cap. Timothy Nick, aide-de-camp, D.C. Army National Guard
Brigadier Gen. Aaron Dean, adjutant general, D.C. Army National Guard

Prices at McDonalds have DOUBLED since 2014 while official inflation data shows just 31% inflation.

Prices at Popeyes, Taco Bell, and Chipotle have risen by 86%, 81%, and 75%, respectively.

Traditionally, fast food was considered to be a “cheap” food option.

Now, feeding a family for one meal at a fast food restaurant costs more than $50 in many cases.

Fast food is officially expensive.

Or alternatively — real food inflation is running at 100% (over the same period) and the 31% gov’t statistic is bullshit!!!!

The EU needs new leadership as the bloc’s current top officials have proven entirely unsuccessful, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has claimed.

Orban made the comments at the European Parliament on Tuesday as part of a public discussion with Former Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki and the leader of the French National Rally party, Fabrice Leggeri.

“Now we have a leadership in the EU with some major projects selected by themselves like green transition, RRF (Recovery and Resilience Facility) policy, migration, war [in Ukraine] and sanctions policy, and they all failed,” Orban said.

“The present leadership of the European Union must go away. And we need new leaders,” the Hungarian prime minister insisted.

Orban said he intends “to come and take over Brussels,” reiterating his earlier warning to “occupy” the EU’s key institutions with his allies in order to bring change to the bloc.

The World Health Organization estimates 35 million+ new cancer cases in 2050, yet they’re ignoring the reason behind it – including why turbo cancers (most of which are resistant to conventional treatment) are suddenly showing up in young people under 30 who have taken this.

“They are knee deep in actively sponsoring and encouraging and facilitating the production and export of fentanyl for distribution in the United States”: Former Attorney General

A U.S. Congress committee investigation has presented compelling evidence that Beijing is paying organized crime to traffic fentanyl globally while elite Chinese Communist Party officials are directly implicated in related drug money laundering networks, former U.S. Attorney General William Barr said Tuesday.

Senator Rand Paul has highlighted newly discovered emails in which Dr. Peter Daszak, head of EcoHealth Alliance, widely considered to be responsible for the coronavirus research that led to the virus leaking from the Wuhan lab, admitted that his company had fifteen thousand samples of the virus in freezers in Wuhan.

This is the opposite of how Ukraine treats its indigenous Russian minority…

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba warned on Friday that “It has become clear that assimilation would be extremely fast if we do not change our policy towards Ukrainians abroad”, calling on these refugees to “remain Ukrainian” with the innuendo that they shouldn’t plant roots in the West. He didn’t explicitly say so, but it’s strongly hinted that he hopes that those millions who’ve fled the latest phase of the Ukrainian Conflict over the past two years will eventually return home to their country.

These two developments coincided with Ukraine’s passing of a new conscription law that doesn’t include a demobilization clause, which the media reported has left troops feeling “betrayed” while a member of the Rada described it as a “point of no return” in terms of turning citizens against the government. Kuleba obviously hopes that unassimilated Ukrainians will feel so unwelcome in the West that they’ll return home to risk their lives in the meatgrinder and then rebuild their country when the conflict ends.

On Monday, the House finalized procedural business on a bill to reauthorize the nation’s warrantless surveillance powers under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), which Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR) called “one of the most dramatic and terrifying expansions of government surveillance authority in history.”

There are certain powers a government should not have in a democracy. The ability to force ordinary businesses and individuals to serve as surrogate spies is one of them. Even if the targets are supposed to be foreigners, a power this sweeping WILL be abused.

I cannot overstate how mindblowingly irresponsible that is. I don’t think *any* administration should be trusted with an Orwellian power like this one. But even if *this* administration doesn’t plan to make full use of it… (Go ahead and fill in the blank.)

Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate—we can not consecrate—we can not hallow—this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
