SUDDEN & UNEXPECTED: Statins don't just interfere with cholesterol, they also interfere with other fatty nutrients like vitamin D, E, and CoQ10.⁠ Cholesterol is your friend

REP. HARRIET HAGEMAN: By August of 2023, [Ireland was issued] an order that they had to slaughter 41,000 head of cattle, not because of a disease outbreak, but because of global warming.

So I come from, as I said, a ranching community.  I grew up on a ranch.  The USDA for several years has been trying to force our cattle and bison producers to use what are called RFID or EID ear tags, electronic identification ear tags.  They want to chip them all.  And I've been fighting against this, and they say it's for disease traceability.  If there's a brucellosis outbreak or hoof and mouth disease, we've got to know that immediately so we can isolate that animal.  We have the very best disease traceability program anywhere in the world in the United States.  It's worked beautifully for hundreds of years.  It's extremely effective.  We are able to isolate the animals immediately if there's an issue, despite the fact, and in addition to which we have the healthiest turds of anywhere in the world.  So you look at all of that, and so you say, okay, what is this really about?  And then you start looking at the countries that have implemented this.  Ireland implemented it in early 2022.  By August of 2023, they were issuing an order that they had to slaughter 41,000 head of cattle, not because of a disease outbreak, but because of global warming.  In the Netherlands, they adopted . . . excuse me, Denmark, they adopted an EID mandate, and last year they imposed a $100 a head tax on every single head of cattle in the country, not because of a disease outbreak, because of global warming.  So what you start seeing is how they use this information.  This is a $1.2 to $1.9 billion dollar tax on the cattle industry if it's actually implemented 100%. 

Trump Lifted Biden Sanction on Israeli Software, Pegasus

Did you know that the camera and microphone you're using right now can be seen and heard by someone remotely if your phone is infected with the spyware called Pegasus?  In fact, the users can have access to your camera, your microphone, photos, videos, all your DMs, your social media, your texts, emails.  They can even send and receive messages.  They can have your exact location.  They can even have your health data.  And these aren't hackers or shadowy figures from the dark web. Pegasus is sold to governments, governments like Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Mexico activists and journalists we actually interviewed victims of Pegasus in Mexico by an Israeli spyware firm called NSO Group.  And there have been dozens of reported cases of it being used against human rights activists and journalists.  We actually interviewed victims of Pegasus in Mexico, and associates of Jamal Kvvshoggi in London for an episode of Fault Lines, called "Targeted by a Text."  Our reporting led us to a New Jersey mansion where Omri Lavie lived, the owner of NSO.  I knocked on his door to ask him questions about the business of sneaking into people's private lives.

Omri, can we ask you a few questions?  I'm a journalist with Al Jazeera, Josh Rushing, hosting a show called, Fault Lines.  Can we ask you just a few questions?  

No.

I want to get a statement from you.

Excuse me.  This is private property, so I would ask you to kindly leave.  Go away.

Just one statement, like why do you continue to sell to governments that use Pegasus to target human rights activists and journalists?

Go away, or I'll call the police.

He said go away, or I'll call the police.

Because of all the reporting about governments abusing Pegasus, the US government blacklisted the company in 2021.  You know the old saying about "never let a serious crisis go to waste"?  NSO certainly does.  They're now spending millions of dollars to lobby the US government to try to get it off the blacklist.  They've actually hired one of the most prestigious law firms in the world, Paul Hastings.  That's his building.  You can see it right from my desk.  A partner from Paul Hastings on November 7th, 2023, exactly one month after the Hamas attack on Israel, sent a written letter requesting to urgently meet with the Secretary of State.  How do I know?  Here's the email. Here are the letters.  And these are courtesy of our good friends and journalists over at The Intercept.  In the letter the partner Timothy Dickinson uses the Specter of alleged Rising anti-Semitism as a reason for the US government to have this incredibly invasive spyware. Hey, look, for a lot more about Pegasus, NSO, check out the Emmy-nominated Fault Lines episode, "Targeted by a Text" on YouTube.  This is The Brief, and I am Josh Rushing.

MANOOKIAN: So it's bigger than just overturning Chevron. It's all the kind of goodwill that was accorded to them during those years

09:18.  Any mandates are completely out of the scope of the EUA and the PREP Act.

09:22.  We actually sued over this.  The school district in Los Angeles mandated in March of 2021 the shots for all their employees, and we sued, and we said, "EUA, you can't do this," and they rescinded the mandate the next day. 

But then something really weird happened. I'll just say this as an aside very quickly. The case had to work its way through the court, and so it did, and in July, one week before our case went to the district court in Los Angeles, the federal court, the Office of Legal Counsel is what it's called at DOJ, issued an opinion.  They issue opinions on things, and they stated that the EUA language, which said that "recipients of the EUA product must be apprised of the risks and benefits, the risks of not using it, that those risks can include 'losing their jobs.'"  Talk about contortionism, right?  Who all was in on this, and why were they doing it?  This was a Department of Justice, the top of the Department of Justice issued this letter totally because of our lawsuit saying, "No, no, no, oh, you can just tell them that they're losing their jobs, because this would be one of the risks."

10:57. LERMAN. And if you look at the law, there's no way that the law intended that because the law did not talk about . . . the law was talking about a CBR an attack and the risks associated with that and with the countermeasures.  It wasn't risks associated with government activity or government mandates.  And now, I mean now that Chevron is gone we weren't able to question government agencies; before we weren't able to question them at all. I don't know now if we can question them on this stuff.

11:25. MANOOKIAN.  Certainly, much more.  First of all, there's something else called context, or the "Context Doctrine," basically whenever there is a confusion or question about something, then the courts are bound to look at the context and the other words surrounding those words to understand what the intent was of Congress.  And it's very clear, it's all about the health risks of either taking or refusing the product. the words are literally so twisted our attorneys were actually couldn't even believe that thing this office of legal counsel issued this opinion because it was so ridiculous so utterly ridiculous but it was intended to give the court cover and all of the employers across the country to give them cover with respect to Chevron Deference.  I don't want to talk too much, but with respect to Chevron, I will say Chevron, what happened with Chevron was that for 40 years the courts were required to defer to a government agency's interpretations of statutes whenever there was a dispute over any ambiguity in the statute.  So Chevron overturned that specific piece, but what's most important is that implied in the Chevron Doctrine that had been in place for all those years was this goodwill.  You know, "Our federal agencies wouldn't lie to us." "They wouldn't deceive us." "They wouldn't twist." They were all accorded goodwill from the courts.  And I think that has been undone by overturning Chevron, and by the incredible bad will that we've witnessed.  So it's bigger than just overturning Chevron.  It's all the kind of goodwill that was accorded to them during those years, and I think that's pretty much gone.

RICHARD GAGE: Rahm Emmanuel's father, planned to dress up in 1954 like a Palestinian and plant bombs in the King David Hotel in Jerusalem, killing 91 and injuring 46 . . .

Larry Silverstein's business partner is an acknowledged terrorist in Israel and hero, by the way.  Benjamin Emanuel, Rahm  Emmanuel's father, planned to dress up like a Palestinian and plant bombs in the King David Hotel in Jerusalem, killing 91 and injuring 46 in a false flag operation against the British designed to get them out of Palestine.  This is actually in Wikipedia.  You can go and read all this; it's not a conspiracy theory.  All that  Wikipedia offers is a familial relationship to Rahm,

Benjamin M. Emanuel, passed "secret codes" to Menachem Begin. A Chicago pediatrician, he is father to Rahm Emanuel, Ari Emanuel and Ezekiel J. Emanuel. 

The Lavon Affair where groups of Egyptian Jews were recruited by Israelis military intelligence to plant bombs inside the Egyptian American and British owned civilian targets the attacks were to be blamed on the Muslim Brotherhood Egyptian communist unspecified malcontents or local nationalists with the aim of creating a climate of sufficient violence and instability to induce the British government retain its occupying troops troops in Egypt this was a huge controversy in 1954. 

Google Assistant writes, 

The Lavon Affair was a failed Israeli covert operation in 1954, where Israeli military intelligence recruited Egyptian Jews to plant bombs in civilian targets in Egypt, intending to blame the attacks on the Muslim Brotherhood. The operation led to significant political fallout in Israel, including the resignation of Defense Minister Pinhas Lavon and strained relations with the United States and the United Kingdom.
