Thursday, August 29, 2024

04:00. I thought I'd lay out my observations.  July and August have been extremely eventful, and all of these events had something very interesting and common and that is the well understood pending default by Ukraine, which was expected at the end of July.  And there was frenzied activity around Ukraine's Bond Servicing, and between Ukraine's government and Starmer's cabinet.  Here's what's been happening.  2024 has been very bad for Ukraine.  It's become clear that they cannot win in their war against Russia, and already in January about 10% of people polled in Europe, on a sample of 17,000 people in 12 European countries, only 10% of them felt that Ukraine could win against Russia. Which tells you that's the True Believers, 10%, right?  So things are looking bleak and then the aid package gets stalled in US Congress for months, the $61 billion aid package.  And then in March, the World Bank gives Ukraine a $1.5 billion loan but what we learned from that is that the World Bank thinks that Ukraine state of finances is catastrophic and at the risk of dealing with Ukraine is extreme, meaning you can lend the money but you're not going to see it back.  That's bank talk for that.

06:00. So there's a lot of anxiety between the private bondholders who hold about $20 billion dollars worth of _________ Ukraine bonds.  When Russians launched their special military operation these private bondholders granted Ukraine a two-year grace period so you don't have to service your debt for 2 years.  That expires when?  It expired on the 1st of August, 2024, so 27 days ago.  In May, according to the Wall Street Journal, they start this discussion between a bondholding committee representing people like Black Rock among the Pimco and who knows who else and they start negotiating with Ukrainians because they're like, "Hey, you need to start servicing those bonds.  You need to start paying at least the interest," and so the Ukrainians are like, "We can't.  If you take a haircut, like 60%, then maybe we can talk.  And so there were negotiations going on, Ukrainians were demanding 60% reduction in debt and the bond holders were offering 22% so this gets to July then on 12th July they have these intense negotiations and by the 19th July they reached the agreement okay so ukrainians are going to start restructuring their debts they're going to be at 37% haircut for the bond holders and this happens in London on 18th July zelensky flies to London where the recently appointed Blair's salonski as his ambass ador as his ambassador to London who used to be the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces in Ukraine

1:16:40  Steve Hogarth put it in one of Marillion's songs, we don't even have the haves and the have nots, we have "the haves and the have-nothings." 

That's Britain, man. 

They had a poll in which 25% of the British people said they were going to have to switch off their heating this winter to survive financially.  Off!  And 48% of them said "Off or down," meaning maybe we'll heat a little bit, but that's half the population. 

1:17:31  And their leadership, as you pointed out in your article, the leadership is telling them "Well, you're probably going to have to suffer and you probably don't deserve to heat your homes," like a number of them are like "this is what you're going to have to do to save England."  Ah, no.  Fuck you.

BIG PHARMA LIES WITH SHARYL ATTKINSSON

One of them I would say is Viagra causing blindness.  I broke that story internationally some years ago at CBS when other journalists didn't care.  --Sharyl Attkinsson

Here is the podcast, and the 36-minute interview doesn't start until the 1:08 mark.  

18:45. Well, like you say, the stuff that sounded unbelievable to me but as I started to understand the science behind it these are things that opened my eyes.  One of them I would say is Viagra causing blindness.  I broke that story internationally some years ago at CBS when other journalists didn't care.  It was nothing more than a laugh to them when a small article came up on the wire services, and I talked about how the people who uncovered these side effects that the government should [have been] covering, the drug company should be telling us about, like blindness with the erectile dysfunction drugs, they're not coming up with it because they're not looking for it for whatever reason.  The doctors who are prescribing it aren't asking.  So this tells how this was discovered by me and also by independent doctors who were treating as it happens; not the urologists who should have been looking for this, but an eye doctor noticed these patterns.  So I thought that was fascinating.  I talked about the tricks that FDA scientists say the drug companies use to hide Adverse Events in their studies that they submit to being approved so that these things won't show up until it's too late

JAMES LYONS-WEILER: autism...it often involves an autoimmune reaction...but it's simply the body's intolerance of toxins and the brain becomes overwhelmed

"Adults who were exposed to too much mercury because they ate fish from the Bay of Minamata... They started hand-flapping, they stopped talking...we call that mercury poisoning over [there], but if you poison a kid with mercury to their toxic level of tolerance, it's autism."

Scientist, CEO, author, and human rights advocate James Lyons-Weiler (
@lifebiomedguru
) describes for Stephanie Weidle (@ActiveSinger24) on a Feds for Freedom (
@feds4freedomusa
) podcast about how autism is caused by "a long list" of environmental toxins, which he refers to as "autismogens." "Like there are many carcinogens, there are many autismogens," Lyons-Weiler says. "These autismogens include any number of organic pollutants [including] mercury of both types." The scientist highlights the Minamata disaster in Japan, which saw citizens in the 1950s, in the city of Minamata, Kumamoto Prefecture, fall prey to mercury poisoning following the release of methylmercury into the ocean from industrial wastewater from a chemical factory. The methylmercury bioaccumulated in shellfish and when citizens subsequently ate them, they were poisoned. "Adults that were exposed to too much mercury because they ate fish from the Bay of Minamata after the Minamata disaster...[they] stopped making eye contact. They started hand-flapping, and they stopped talking, it's a one-to-one correspondence. We just call that mercury poisoning over here. But if you poison a kid with mercury to their toxic level of tolerance, it's autism, if it's mercury-based." Partial transcription of clip: "All of the literature up to 2015 showed environmental toxins that are associated with autism. It's a long list. "Like there are many carcinogens, there are many autismogens. These autismogens include any number of organic pollutants. They include mercury of both types. And proof of this is the Minamata disaster in Japan. Adults that were exposed to too much mercury because they ate fish from the Bay of Minamata after the Minamata disaster, [and] well, let's go through the symptoms of autism: you stop making eye contact; you can't speak; you lose the ability to speak; you don't interact with people socially; you act like they're not there in the room If it's severe, you might hand flap and do repetitive motions. "Anybody can identify a kid with autism that way or an adult. The adults that were exposed to high levels of mercury stopped making eye contact. They started hand flapping, and they stopped talking, it's a one-to-one correspondence. We just call that mercury poisoning over here. But if you poison a kid with mercury to their toxic level of tolerance, it's autism, if it's mercury-based.

The reference to Dr. Russel Blaylock's Chronic Microglial Activation.
So autism...it often involves an autoimmune reaction...but it's simply the body's intolerance of toxins and the brain becomes overwhelmed, can't do the things that the brain needs to do. "What happens in the brain if a brain cell dies due to the toxins that are present of any kind, it actually activates, it sends out cytokines that activate microglial cells, which are the scavengers and the immune cells of our brain. And those microglial cells will pick up the cellular debris and clean it up. They also do pruning of the brain during neurodevelopment and they have two roles. They're the trash collectors of the brain and they prune the brain for neurodevelopment. Well, if you fill the brain with toxins to the point where these microglia are so busy taking out the trash all day long, they can't build the brain properly. So we have altered neurodevelopment due to toxins. "So please, let's stop with, okay, for the greater good, you're taking on risks for to protect other kids, and what about these kids? What about these kids' rights to live in a world free from the ravages of pharmaceutical toxins to save some other kid from a mild childhood illness. That's where the balance of ethics should be and we need to revisit that as a society.

SHADOW OF EZRA: Boar’s Head, a member of the Tent Coalition for Refugees in the U.S., has been involved in efforts to hire, train, and mentor refugees.

Shocking documents reveal that federal inspectors uncovered a disturbing number of violations at the Virginia Boar's Head facility, the epicenter of a deadly deli meat recall. The listeriosis outbreak has already claimed at least nine lives and sickened dozens more, with new fatalities reported in recent days from Florida, Tennessee, New Mexico, and South Carolina. Inspectors found mold, mildew, and insects repeatedly infesting the site, raising alarms about the facility's safety standards. Boar’s Head, a member of the Tent Coalition for Refugees in the U.S., has been involved in efforts to hire, train, and mentor refugees. This marks the largest listeriosis outbreak since the devastating 2011 incident linked to cantaloupe.
