Episode 574
Arizona State Senator Sonny Borrelli put Arizona County Supervisors on notice this morning with a notice to stop using foreign machines in their elections.
Article 1 Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution gives State Legislatures the power to “regulate the ‘Times, Places and Manner of holding elections for Senators and Representatives.’”
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, The Arizona House and Senate passed Senate Concurrent Resolution 1037, setting official requirements for the use of electronic voting machines in the state and banning the use of those that use foreign components.
This resolution also requires the source code used in any computerized voting machine for federal elections to be made available to the public.
This Resolution bypassed the Governor and was transmitted directly to the Secretary of State’s office. If the Secretary of State and Arizona Counties do not comply with this new rule, the Legislature can and likely will sue.
-Jordan Conradson, Gateway Pundit
Katie Hobbs has vetoed this, but the Congress in Arizona has plenary power, which means absolute power, and they were able to overturn her veto because of this. So, who knows what they are going to do in the sense of pushback. But we could likely see Arizona become a stronghold for the Republicans in 2024. And it appears that now Kari Lake may have a shot at having the Maricopa County race done over again, potentially with paper ballots.

Yuval Harari discussing Qanon and Q Posts
This is quite an intriguing take by Yuval Harari pertaining to the Q drops. The idea of the drops being disseminated by bots is highly unusual. Especially considering I have been studying this topic for a very long time and I have never read any articles or seen any research that would give any relevance to those drops being propagated by bots. But it is interesting to see the idea of Q coming back into the circle.
The conspiracy theory known as QAnon has been a subject of controversy since its inception. Recently, The Black Vault obtained a small collection of previously unseen FBI files that shed new light on the federal investigation of QAnon.
For those unfamiliar with the topic, QAnon is a conspiracy theory that emerged on the internet in 2017. Its followers believe in a worldwide cabal of satanic pedophiles and cannibals, which they claim includes top politicians and Hollywood celebrities. This theory alleges that an anonymous online figure known as “Q” is leaking top-secret information about this cabal to the public. The identity of “Q” remains unknown, adding a layer of mystery and intrigue to the narrative.
This newly released set of documents was obtained by The Black Vault through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request, case number 1459895-000. Out of the 43 pages found by the FBI related to QAnon, only 19 have been released. The remaining pages are withheld under Title 5, United States Code, Section 552, subsection (b)(7)(A).
Title 5, United States Code, Section 552, subsection (b)(7)(A) allows an agency to exempt certain information from public release if it could harm a specific interest. In this particular case, the FBI explains the reason to exempt the material as it, “… pertains to records or information compiled for law enforcement purposes, the release of which could reasonably be expected to interfere with enforcement proceedings.”
-John Greenwald, The Black Vault
FBI Releases Files On QAnon; Withholds More Than Half Of Them
The Black Fault did an FOIA request and was able to obtain a large number of documents pertaining to the Q movement. And what this really says about Q is that they have no idea who or what it is, but they do deem it as a threat. What I think these posts are is a mix of human beings and artificial intelligence. And I think that by analyzing how the world is unfolding, certain predictions of what will happen and when can be made.
I believe that Q was a psychological warfare operation targeted towards the Christian and patriot ideologies. Not in a bad way, but as a means of waking people up to what was really going on in the world. And the reason why they needed something like Q is because our country was being ripped away, and high-level highly advanced technologies were being sold off by our politicians and high-ranking military leaders.
They were trying to figure out who it was that was doing all this. And they did eventually discover who it was, but the problem was that they acquired most of the evidence through illegal or illicit means, which was inadmissible in court. So, they would need to bring all this evidence out to the public, and in order to do that they would need to take back the domain of information.
I think that we are going to see a comeback of Q. But be warned that it might not be the real Q. I think that Yuval Harari was giving not a warning, but a promise. That there is going to be a new savior who comes to light, one who will utilize the same tactics of psychological warfare. But this time it will be the one that drags you down.
Update (1035ET): As we suspected, a Pentagon spokeserson has confirmed there has been no explosion at The Pentagon this morning.
So as we asked at the bottom: who started it?
The S&P 500 kneejerked notably lower this morning after headlines hit social media of an explosion near the Pentagon.
While completely unconfirmed, a number of media outlets are showing the images (and some are deleting it already)...
Interestingly this is being amplified in Ukraine/Russia...
Many reactions are that this is fake and we tend to agree given the total lack of confirmation by any major media outlet. If so, the most important question is - who started it?
Welcome to the future of AI-created propaganda images.

Stocks Briefly Spooked By 'Confirmed Fake' Report Of Explosion Near Pentagon
So, this explosion was a deep fake, meaning that it never actually happened. We had an AI generated video that was blasted all over social media to the point where multiple news organizations were picking it up and thinking it was real. And the stock market was actually affected by it. Is it coincidental that over the weekend we also saw the WEF calling for AI and deep fake regulation, while at the same time Yuval Harari was talking about AI psyops and deep fakes? I do not believe so. We are entering a new realm that we have never seen before, with the use of artificial intelligence, social media propagation, and the weaponization of information. We need to be vigilant and be able to discern the information that we take in, now more than ever.
The World Economic Forum (WEF) is unsurprisingly a part of the “deepfakes panic” that has been spread and promoted for some years now by a number of politicians and media outlets around the world.
The notion of deepfake tech is used here as a stand-in for (future) AI in general – and least as far as WEF’s “fears” go, behind them is an attempt to make sure that governments and regulators around the world get working to prevent “harm” from AI.
According to WEF, cyber-criminals are using deepfakes so much these days that the problem has become “worrying” – while when it comes to the news industry, this is “a growing global concern.”
The truth is that when speaking about technology, we have seen a huge increase in “everything” over the past years: of profits, the number of users of social platforms, the censorship, the surveillance. However, the WEF chooses to look at deepfakes in isolation, mentioning a rapid increase in the amount of this content, and forecasts that say this trend will continue.
And while deepfakes have been around for a long time in order to help businesses – particularly the entertainment industry, now, WEF, an informal group representing global elites speaks about them as “a threat to businesses” – and if trust in digital technology needed any more eroding, WEF seems certain it will happen thanks to deepfakes.

Approximately 60,000 lbs. of the explosive chemical ammonium nitrate, a chemical used to make fertilizer, and a component in explosives, like the ones used in the 1995 terror bombing in Oklahoma City at the Murrah Federal Building, has disappeared.
The 30 tons of ammonium nitrate was being shipped on April 12, from Cheyenne, Wyoming, to California, but when the train arrived at a rail stop two weeks later in the Mojave Desert, the car carrying the dangerous explosives was empty.
On May 10, Dyno Nobel reported the incident to the federal National Response Center or NRC.
The report indicates that the chemical substance was “released due to an unknown cause” and was discovered to be missing upon the rail car’s arrival in Saltdale, California.
According to KQRD – Dyno Nobel says it believes the material — transported in pellet form in a covered hopper car similar to those used to ship coal — fell from the car on the way to a rail siding (a short track connecting with the main track) called Saltdale about 30 miles from the town of Mojave in eastern Kern County.
“The railcar was sealed when it left the Cheyenne facility, and the seals were still intact when it arrived in Saltdale. The initial assessment is that a leak through the bottom gate on the railcar may have developed in transit,” the company said through a spokesperson.
-Patty McMurray, 100PercentFedUp
There are a lot of questions to ask here. Did the train make any stops? Did the ammonium nitrate even make it onto the train to begin with? What kind of damage can be done with 30 tons of ammonium nitrate? And this is my concern, we have this push with deep fakes going on, while at the same time we have this scare of ammonium nitrate that is now missing. I would say that we could likely see a terrorist attack in the near future, one that could be blamed on right winged radicalism. And we could also see the deep fakes span up to verify and prove it. We are in an unknown domain of how this could all unfold.
A report published on Sunday raises new concerns about the safety and security of the country’s top elected officials.
In response to mounting concerns about security risks faced by members of Congress, over 50 senators have reportedly been provided with satellite phones for emergency communication, as per sources familiar with the matter cited by CBS News. The devices are among several new security measures being offered to senators by the Senate Sergeant at Arms, who assumed the role shortly after the attack on the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, the report added.
The offer of satellite a phone has been extended to all 100 senators, according to reports. CBS News revealed that a minimum of 50 senators have chosen to accept these phones and, as recommended by Senate administrative staff, were advised to keep the devices readily accessible while traveling.
-Jon Dougherty, Conservative Brief
Senators Get Satellite Phones As Means of Enhancing Security Amid Growing Threats
Now why would they need these satellite phones? Well, in the event of a major disaster or cataclysm where normal communications are taken down, they would still be able to communicate. Take the example of a nuclear threat. If there were a threat of a tactical nuke within a city, the first thing that they would do is shut down the cell phone towers. And they do this to prevent remote detonation.
But this would also be the perfect opportunity for takeover of the country. If there were a nuclear threat against the United States, they would shut down all the cell towers and everyone across the country would be without communication. And from that point they would be able to implement martial law, as well as suspend the elections.
In my opinion, everything that I am seeing is leading up to some type of major event that is going to take place within the United Stats of America. This event is going to be cataclysmic to the economy and is most likely going to propagate World War 3. It would allow the Biden administration, through various emergency powers, to suspend the election and take full power and control over the military, as well as send Congress home. But keep in mind that this is the worst-case scenario.
Why are we giving big pharma $200 billion in the first place? So, basically what he is saying is that he is going to increase taxes on oil and gas, real estate transactions, and crypto currency. If they eliminate tax subsidies for oil and gas, guess who will pay for that? You will. When he says he is going to eliminate real estate loopholes, what he means is that if you sell a piece of real estate that you have owned for over two years and it has been your primary residence, and you did not have to pay taxes on it, now you will. Eliminating crypto currency trading tax loopholes is just a fancy way of saying crypto regulation. Imposing a billionaire minimum tax is socialism. For raising the top income tax rate, that is $300,000 a year, and that is not that large of an income for many people. And notice how he brings up a global minimal tax as well. They are not hiding their agenda any longer. Everything is now out in the open for everyone to see.
Like I have said before, the Democrats want the default. They want everything to collapse and crash, because that gives them the authority to utilize emergency powers. We have the impeachment of Joe Biden, US attorney Graves, Director Wray, and Director Mayorkas going through the House right now, so they need a distraction from that. We have the Hunter Biden investigations going on right now, and they need a distraction from that. And we are seeing pressure put on the FBI for censorship, spying, and illegal attainment of information of US citizens. Joe Biden’s administration has been nothing but scandal after scandal, and they need a massive distraction from all of it. They also know that they are not going to legally secure power in 2024. So, the best thing that they could do is produce some type of event or major catalyst to retain those emergency powers. And what better way to do that then with the debt default and economic collapse.
Biden’s corrupt Justice Department shut down their ‘investigation’ into the Clinton Foundation in August 2021, according to FOIA documents obtained by the New York Times.
The FBI then ‘returned’ or destroyed all of the evidence!
“The Justice Department kept open the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s family foundation for nearly all of President Donald J. Trump’s administration, with prosecutors closing the case without charges just days before he left office.” The New York Times reported.
The DOJ investigated the Clinton Foundation’s relationships with foreign donors while Hillary Clinton was the head of the Department of State during Obama’s presidency.
Thanks to Judicial Watch, the American public was made aware of Hillary Clinton’s private email server.
Hillary Clinton conducted official business on a non government server so she could hide her Clinton Foundation pay-to-play while she was head of the Department of State.
According to emails obtained by Judicial Watch, Hillary Clinton gave preferential treatment to Clinton Foundation donors while she was Secretary of State.
In fact Judge Royce Lamberth previously said Clinton’s use of a private emails was “one of the gravest modern offenses to government transparency.”
However, Joe Biden’s Justice Department formally shut down the Clinton Foundation investigation in August of 2021 after the FBI suddenly dropped their probes.
“In August 2021, the F.B.I. received what is known as a declination memo from prosecutors and as a result considered the matter closed.” the New York Times reported.
And all the evidence is forever destroyed!
The Times reported: “All of the evidence obtained during the course of this investigation has been returned or otherwise destroyed,” according to the FBI.

Former Deputy National Security Adviser K.T. McFarland, who served for the first four months of the Trump administration under Michael Flynn, says that the deep state is going to rig the 2024 US election following their success in 2020.
"We now have black-and-white evidence that the FBI interfered in the 2016 election. When they failed to elect Hillary Clinton, they set out to destroy the Trump administration," she told Fox Business' Maria Bartiromo.
"Go back to 2020. This time, the CIA got involved in the election with those 51 former intel agents who said the Hunter Biden laptop was Russian disinformation. So they've gotten away with it for two elections. They will surely try and get away with it in 2024, right?
Because there are no consequences...
"There is now hard evidence that there was election interference by the U.S. intelligence agencies and the Department of Justice. Those individuals must be terrified that a Republican president comes in with a Republican Attorney General, investigates them, and charges them with all of the crimes they have committed over the last eight years. Take it to the bank.
They will absolutely interfere in 2024...
These people are selling us out. Not only to foreign leaders, but they are interfering in our elections.
They are tearing up the Constitution... This is just a gut punch to the American people."

Former Deputy Nat'l Security Adviser: FBI, CIA & DOJ Will Rig 2024 Election
This is why I am telling you that I do not think they are going to take it to the election, but instead they are going to take emergency powers before any of that ever happens.
The FBI improperly used warrantless search powers against U.S. citizens more than 278,000 times in the year ending November 2021, according to an unsealed Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) filing.
U.S. citizens covered in that improper effort included people involved in the Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021; George Floyd protesters during the summer of 2020; and donors to a failed congressional candidate, the filing said.
Section 702 of Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) allows the government to conduct targeted surveillance of non-U.S. persons located abroad to acquire foreign intelligence information. When U.S. citizens are flagged as part of these investigations, the FBI takes over the process of querying them for possible security reasons.
The court filing, which spanned 127 pages, was unsealed Friday by the FISC, but was filed in April 2022.
"As Director Wray has made clear, the errors described in the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court’s opinion are completely unacceptable," a senior FBI official told Fox News Friday. "As a result of the audits that revealed these instances of noncompliance, the FBI changed its querying procedures to make sure these errors do not happen again. These steps have led to significant improvement in the way we conduct queries of lawfully obtained Section 702 information."
"We are committed to continuing this work and providing greater transparency into the process to earn the trust of the American people and advance our mission of safeguarding both the nation’s security, and privacy and civil liberties, at the same time," the senior FBI official said.

You really can’t make this up. My only question to this is why isn’t Attorney General Merrick Garland being impeached as well?
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan threatened to cut the FBI's funding after Special Counsel John Durham released his report detailing issues in the federal law enforcement agency and multiple whistleblowers testified about the FBI's alleged misconduct.
"In the end, money always gets people’s attention. And so, what we’re going to have to do is say, 'Hey, FBI, you can’t use federal tax dollars, you can’t use the American tax dollars for this kind of activity.' We got to limit how they spend the money," Jordan, an Ohio Republican, said on "Sunday Morning Futures."
"We have to exercise our authority, the power of the purse, to limit what the federal government, what the FBI and Justice Department, are doing to the American people," Jordan said.
The appropriations process is underway, and Jordan said he is working on how Congress can "limit money" from being used inappropriately.
Jordan's comments come after three FBI whistleblowers testified about the bureau's alleged retaliation they faced for questioning the agency.
Special Counsel John Durham concluded in his final report issued last week that the FBI did not have verified intelligence or evidence when it opened a probe into former President Donald Trump's 2016 campaign.

Jim Jordan threatens power of the purse against FBI after whistleblower testimony
The only reason the FBI exists is because Congress created it. Therefore, they also have the power to defund it and get rid of it altogether. And this is exactly what they should do. Also, every state has their own bureau of investigation, and those state bureaus are more than capable of looking into felonies on their own. We do not need the FBI. We do not need the CIA. And we do not need the Department of Homeland Security. And before 2001, the states were handling things just fine without the DHS.
Hillary Clinton weighed in on concerns surrounding President Biden's age, saying it's a legitimate issue and "people have every right to consider it."
Clinton made the under-the-radar comments on Saturday at the Financial Times Weekend Festival in Washington, D.C., when questioned about Biden stumbling at the G7 Summit in Japan.
"There was that heart-stopping moment when he almost fell over coming down the stairs a day or two ago," Financial Times editor Edward Luce said. "He didn't use a railing, and Jill wasn't there with him.
"Every time that happens, your heart is in your mouth because these things could be consequential. Is that a concern?" he asked.
Clinton responded, "It's a concern for anyone. We've had presidents who had fallen before who were a lot younger, and people didn't go into heart palpitations."
"But his age is an issue, and people have every right to consider it," Clinton added. "But, you know, he has this great saying - and I think he's right - don't judge him for running against the Almighty but against the alternative. I am of the camp that I think he's determined to run; he has a good record that, three years ago, people would not have predicted would have gotten done."

Hillary Clinton says Biden's age is a legitimate issue: 'People have every right to consider it'
While in Hiroshima, Japan over the weekend, President Biden delivered remarks at a news conference following the G7 leaders summit —and maybe it would have been better if he hadn’t.
During his remarks, Biden rambled incoherently for almost a minute.
“There’s a lot of other. For example, the idea that we’re in terms of taxes. That they’re used to. For example… I was able to pass Global Warming. Anyway, I was able to cut the deficit that we were. I was able to say to that 50 corporations that made 40, 400 billion. That they pay zero in tax,”
But that wasn’t the only Biden blunder; Joe referred to South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol as “President Loon.”

Migrants dropped off in Manhattan
These Republican states are saying that if we must have these immigrants here in the United States then they are going to send them to the Democrat cities. But this is a big problem. And it makes you wonder why they don’t just take them back to the border. Because this is what needs to be done. Take them back across the border and drop them off in Mexico City. Allowing them to stay in this country, even being in the more liberal cities, is just going to create more problems for Americans.
E. Jean Carroll on Monday filed court papers seeking ‘very substantial’ monetary damages over Trump’s CNN town hall remarks.
A Manhattan jury reached a verdict in the E. Jean Carroll rape/defamation case earlier this month.
In 2019, E. Jean Carroll alleged Donald Trump raped her in a Bergdorf Goodman dressing room in the 1990’s.
Trump has denied the allegations and called E. Jean Carroll a “whack job” who’s “not my type.”
The jury found Trump sexually abused and defamed Carroll and ordered him to pay $5 million in damages.
Trump blasted E Jean. Carroll during a CNN town hall a couple weeks ago.
“What kind of a woman meets somebody and brings them up and within minutes you’re playing hanky-panky in a dressing room?” Trump said, adding the accusation was a ‘fake’ and ‘made up story.’
Now she’s going after Trump again!
Judge Lewis Kaplan, a Clinton appointee, would ultimately decide if Carroll is allowed to amend her pending lawsuit.

BREAKING: E Jean Carroll Seeks New ‘Substantial Damages’ Over Trump’s CNN Town Hall Remarks
Russia has issued another stern warning related to further potential Ukrainian attacks on Crimea. "Strikes on this territory are considered by us as an attack on any other region of the Russian Federation. It is important that the United States is fully aware of the Russian response," Moscow’s ambassador to the US, Anatoly Antonov, warned Sunday.
This was in response to an earlier weekend statement by US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan to CNN. He said while speaking from the G7 summit in Japan over the weekend, “we have not placed limitations on Ukraine being able to strike on its territory… What we’ve said is that we won't enable Ukraine with US-systems to attack Russia. And we believe Crimea is Ukraine.”
However, the US has consistently denied that it has OK'd Ukraine using US-supplied advanced weaponry to mount such attacks.
Antonov further stated on Telegram in response that "the unconditional approval of strikes on Crimea using American and other Western weapons" alongside the move among Western allies to supply Ukraine with jets "clearly demonstrate that the United States has never been interested in peace."
He warned the US administration against "thoughtless judgments on Crimea, especially in terms of ‘blessing’ the Kiev regime for air attacks" on the peninsula.
Per Russian state media, other Kremlin officials weighed in even more forcefully, warning that even nuclear disaster could be the result:
Sullivan’s remarks likewise triggered outrage from Crimean Deputy Prime Minister Georgy Muradov, who opined that by allowing Ukraine to use US-made planes to target the peninsula, the White House had “agreed to unleashing a nuclear war.”
The official recalled that Crimea hosts Russia’s Black Sea Fleet. “An attack on one of the pillars of Russia’s strategic security legally obliges our country to use all available means to prevent it from being undermined.”
Russia has also recently accused Ukrainian forces of using UK-supplied long-range rockets which are capable of hitting inside Russia.

Russia Issues Dire Warning After US Approves Ukrainian Strikes On Crimea
Over the weekend, Russia completed its military effort to seize control over the city of Bakhmut. Even as the leader of the Wagner group declared victory, announcing total control over the city, the delusional political leaders and military propagandists of western nations pretended that Ukraine still controlled Bakhmut, borrowing a page from transgenderism where a biological man can pretend to be a woman.
In reality, however, men can’t have babies and also men can’t block artillery by wishing it so.
While the delusional West remains steeped in lies, mass mental illness and sheer runaway insanity, Russia’s military bet on kinetic reality and used the laws of physics to achieve a tactical military victory that Western leaders said would never happen.
(When the US military is rooted in reality and military sense, it is amazingly capable and effective. But when it’s run by “woke” policies and delusional political leaders, it fails at everything… as we’ve seen since the day Biden took office…)
Now, a delusional Joe Biden says he wants to inject American-made F-16 fighter jets into the fray, no doubt flown by US military fighter pilots who will inevitably be shot down by Russia’s anti-air systems (which are vastly superior to anything the US currently deploys). This will put American pilots in the hands of the Russian military, giving Russia the direct evidence they need to declare that the United States has entered the war directly.
At that point, Russia may decide to initiate its own “existential threat” posture and start launching nuclear missiles at western targets, including key cities in the United States and across Western Europe.

Bakhmut falls to Russia, Joe Biden escalates toward nuclear war while America burns
President Joe Biden informed G-7 leaders on Friday that Washington supports a joint effort with allies to train Ukrainian pilots on F-16 fighter jets, a senior administration official said, a key endorsement as Kyiv seeks to boost its air power against Russia's invading forces.
The U.S. also plans to provide F-16 jets to Ukraine as well, a senior Biden administration official said, according to NBC News. The planes, which may not come directly from the U.S., are part of a long-term effort to strengthen the country's security, the NBC report said.
Training on the U.S.-made jets will take place in Europe and will require months to complete, the official said. U.S. officials have estimated the most expeditious time needed for training and delivery of F-16s at 18 months.
"As the training takes place over the coming months, our coalition of countries participating in this effort will decide when to actually provide jets, how many we will provide, and who will provide them," the official said.
The official did not say which countries would be participating in the effort. The U.S. hopes to begin the training, which will be conducted on fourth-generation fighters including F-16s, in the coming weeks, the official added.

The occupied Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant has been reconnected to Ukraine's electricity grid again after being offline for several hours, officials in Kyiv said on Monday.
Earlier Monday Ukraine's nuclear agency Energoatom had accused Russia of carrying out attacks that caused a power cut.
It said it was the seventh time the plant entered "blackout mode" since Moscow's troops took control in March 2022.
"The station is switching to power from the Ukrainian energy system," Ukrenergo, Ukraine's state grid operator, said in a statement later Monday.
"Despite the enemy's morning attack, Ukraine's energy system is operating in a stable fashion," Ukrenergo said, adding that there was enough electricity to "cover the needs of consumers."
Located in the southeastern region of Zaporizhzhia, the six-reactor plant is the largest in Europe.
The grid operator said that in the eastern region of Dnipro, high-voltage lines had been damaged as a result of Moscow's latest strikes.
The Dnipro governor said an overnight aerial attack had been reported, with four Russian missiles and 15 drones downed and at least eight civilians injured.
The last power cut at Zaporizhzhia had been caused by another wave of Russian missile attacks, Energoatom said.
The UN's nuclear chief Rafael Grossi, who has tried to negotiate with both sides to reach a deal on the safety of the plant, said it was the seventh power cut at the huge nuclear facility during the war.

Maintaining close ties with Russia harms Serbia’s chances of joining the EU, the bloc’s foreign policy commissioner, Josep Borrell, said on Monday in Brussels. He also urged Belgrade to “align” with sanctions against Moscow.
Borrell hosted the foreign ministers of Albania and four former Yugoslav republics – Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia-Herzegovina and North Macedonia – and Serbia’s breakaway province of Kosovo, calling on them to follow Ukraine’s example in making “swift progress” in joining the EU.
“We discussed Russia’s influence [in the region], which is trying to derail the European path of the Western Balkans candidates,” Borrell said. “We welcomed the strategic and courageous choices of some of them, who aligned fully with our foreign policy and sanctions.”
Albania, Montenegro, and North Macedonia have joined the bloc’s embargo. Though some officials in Brussels have said otherwise, Bosnia-Herzegovina has not. Neither has Serbia.
Singling out Serbia, Borrell revealed he told FM Ivica Dacic that “maintaining close ties with Russia is not compatible with its European Union accession process. It is also damaging to its own national interests, but certainly it is not compatible with the accession process towards the EU.”
Borrell also said that Serbia’s eventual membership depended not just on sanctioning Russia, but on “normalizing relations” with Kosovo, even though his own country, Spain, is among the five EU member states which do not recognize the breakaway province.

A young woman attending college says she received a zero grade score on an assignment simply for using the term “biological women,” in yet another example of the left’s woke insanity run amuck.
“I got a zero on my project proposal in class because I used the term biological women, which is apparently not allowed anymore,” the college girl explains in a video going viral on social media.
The girl’s professor “even said it was a good project proposal, but I got a zero because I used this term that’s exclusionary and not allowed anymore.”
The girl further highlights the score makes no sense as her project proposal literally centers around transgenders competing in women’s sports.
“How am I supposed to do my final project if I can’t use the word ‘biological women,’ but that’s what my project is about?'” the girls asks laying out her perplexing conundrum.
The college student’s zero grade is yet another example of how the woke liberal mind virus is infecting universities across America.

Clown World: College Girl Gets Zero On Project For Using Term ‘Biological Women’
Lakeridge High School students have apparently been removing tampon dispensers from the walls of boys' bathrooms and depositing them in the toilet.
According to the Daily Caller, the school sent out an email about the issue and reportedly attached a photo of a dispenser in a boys' restroom toilet.
Oregon state law requires public schools to supply free tampons and sanitary pads in bathroom dispensers, including in restrooms designated for males.
"Each time that the dispensers are taken down, the school needs to spend time and resources putting them back up in order to be compliant with House Bill 3294 [Menstrual Dignity Act]," the email noted, according to the Daily Caller. "We are asking our student body to be respectful of school property, and to be sensitive to all of our student's needs."
The absurd requirement to furnish free menstrual products in the boy's restroom reflects the metastasization of radical leftist gender ideology in society.
"This is a perfect example of throwing away tax dollars in Oregon public schools," vice president of Parents Defending Education Caroline Moore noted, according to the outlet. "This isn’t about vandalizing school property — we all know that is bad. The boys are signaling they are not girls and they want to be left alone. It is appalling that any school district is furthering the bizarre agenda from the left where they neglect science and believe men require tampons. Aren't the teachers supposed to be teaching them elementary facts, like I don't know, anatomy?”

Since 2013, there has been an “astonishing” increase in the number of people who are coming down with atrial fibrillation, also known as an irregular heartbeat or a heart arrythmia.
The British Heart Foundation (BHF) conducted an analysis using data collected from Great Britain’s National Health Service (NHS), which for the first time ever concluded that more than 1.5 million Brits – along with another 270,000 Brits who are still undiagnosed – suffer from the “mysterious” heart issue.
Even without that additional 270,000 people tacked onto the figure, the 1.5 million figure alone puts the risk of a serious heart condition at one in every 45 people living in the United Kingdom. In other words, one out of every 45 people is now at risk of developing serious blood clots that could cause debilitating or even deadly strokes.
“These figures show a quite astonishing rise in the number of people diagnosed with atrial fibrillation,” said Prof. Sir Nilesh Samani, BHF’s medical director, in comments recorded by Sky News.
Since 2013, cases of atrial fibrillation are up by around 50 percent, though Sky News offered very little in the way of clarification about why this might be the case. The Comcast-owned news source also did not clarify when atrial fibrillation cases really started to pick up during those years, i.e., did the introduction of Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) “vaccines” in late 2020 play a role?

What is the difference between 2013 and today? That difference is not only the covid vaccines, but it is also the use of 5G towers, as well as the fact that today, almost everyone is walking around with a cell phone and cannot stand to be without it.
The World Health Organization (WHO) has called on sovereign nations to surrender their governance to a global authority.
The WHO warns that “global governance” must be established to fight “health emergencies,” “climate change,” “social and economic inequalities,” and a number of other issues.
The calls from the WHO come days after House Republicans blasted Democrat President Joe Biden for negotiating America’s pandemic authority with congressional input.
On Wednesday, Republicans took to the podium to condemn the Biden administration’s negotiation of global pandemic agreements with the WHO.
GOP lawmakers warn that the agreement will grant additional power to the WHO and centralize authority in an unelected organization they say failed the American public during the pandemic.
On Friday, WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus responded by issuing a report to member nations suggesting that individual countries lack the “global architecture” required to tackle the “emergencies” that may impact the world.
Tedros insists that, while the “re-emergence of epidemic-prone diseases continues to accelerate,” the WHO’s mandate regarding “health emergencies” must extend beyond pandemics to include hunger, poverty, ecological degradation, climate change, and social and economic inequalities.
