Joe Biden Out in Apparent Palace Coup Mon Jul 22, 2024 17:30 | Eugyppius
Biden's team was still obliviously tweeting his resolve to fight on hours after he had decided to step down. So was the matter taken out of his hands? It has all the signs of an opportunistic palace coup, says Eugyppius.

Who Will Guard Us Against the Guardian?s ?Fact Checks?? Mon Jul 22, 2024 15:34 | David Craig
The Guardian has published a 'fact check' of Donald Trump's claims about inflation and immigration. Just one problem, says David Craig: the 'fact check' gets its facts wrong. Who will guard us against the Guardian?

The Office of Budget Intractability Mon Jul 22, 2024 11:00 | Andrew Colllingwood
Labour has brought forward a Bill giving the Office of Budget Responsibility a "fiscal lock" over future economic policy. This is one more step in the erosion of parliamentary democracy, says Andrew Collingwood.

No, the CrowdStrike Debacle is Not a Warning of What Could Happen if we Introduce CBDCs Mon Jul 22, 2024 09:00 | Anonymous IT Reporter
The CrowdStrike debacle was not a harbinger of things to come if we introduce CBDCs, argues the Daily Sceptic's IT expert. A U.K. CBDC would be designated as Critical National Infrastructure and hence not be vulnerable.

WAKE UP.
Else you just might yourelf find yourself awakening to exploding bombs and guns pointed at your face.
Away with you.
Newsmedia my arse. Propaganda more like. Putin had no choice but to go into ukraine.
The US spent billions setting up the Maidan coup in 2014 (nuland openly admitted on youtube to spending 5 billion)
Then they shelled the Donbass for 7 years after.
The yanks snookered Putin. 70,000+ US armed and trained azov nazi neo nationalists were lined up and ready
to sweep through the Donbass and ethnically cleanse every last Russian speaker off the face of the planet.
If Putin didn't react he's dead. Their relations in Russia would march to the Kremlin en masse and string him up.
If he did react well....we all see how that panned out don't we. Demonised by the world media in a one way lying narrative, sanctioned up the wazoo by all the US vassal states including occupied Germany (all those US bases and 40,000+ US personnel aren't there just to pick their noses!) while actual nazis are armed and trained by the US and EU and even by the Irish recently.
I don't remember voting for that. Do you?
Putin was snookered. And guess who currently profits most selling LNG gas and weapons to the EU and Ukraine?
Meanwhile German industry is dismantled, Europe is priced out of the market. Less economic competition for the US.
And we all pay up the ass for electricity , food and petrol.
Thank you so much America.
I'm sick of all the dirty little propagandists like you dropping your turds on every website on the internet. shoo shoo!
Once condemned by Ukrainian officials and imprisoned for sadistic torture and the rape of minors, leaders of the notorious Tornado Battalion are free under Volodymyr Zelensky’s orders.
After banning virtually his entire political opposition, publishing a blacklist of foreign journalists and academics accused of advancing “Russian propaganda,” and ramming through a law exempting 70% of Ukrainians from workplace protections, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenksy has freed from prison fascist militants convicted of some of the most heinous crimes the country has seen since World War II.
According to a July 11 report in Ukrainian media, Ruslan Onishenko, commander of the now-disbanded Tornado Battalion, was freed as part of President Zelensky’s scheme to release prisoners with combat experience. Along with an unwavering commitment to fascism, Onishenko is known as a psychopathic sadist who was involved in sexually assaulting children, brutally torturing prisoners, and murder.
Onishenko’s release follows a February 27 order by Zelensky to free other convicted former Tornado members like Danil “Mujahed” Lyashuk, a fanatic from Belarus who has openly emulated ISIS and boasted of torturing captives for sheer enjoyment. According to Zelensky‘s decree, prisoners with combat experience would be allowed to “compensate for their guilt” by fighting in the “hottest spots.”
Back in 2015, when the Ukrainian state provided official support to his Tornado Battalion, Onishenko texted two fellow “patriots,” Voldomor and Svetlana Savichuk, propositioning Svetlana Savichuk to “suck my cock in front of the [toddler] children.” (See screenshots of the conversation here). He also asked Savichuk to perform lewd acts on her children for his viewing pleasure. Despite the magnitude of his crimes, which included torture, murder, rape – including that of children – kidnapping, amputation, and more, Onishenko was sentenced to a mere 11 years in prison on April 11, 2017.
Now, after serving just five years of his sentence, the convicted predator has been freed by a president hailed by Western patrons as a defender of democracy.
