That’s right, on June 28 the ANTIFA tweeted from the “official” account the following statement proudly:

“Here we endorse crimes like pouring concrete on train tracks. We also include a how-to video at bottom of article: https://itsgoingdown.org/olympia-wa-train…”

A strike team was dispatched to the scene of the train derailment which may signify that authorities believe the crash could be terrorism-related despite the release of rather vague tight-lipped reports which offer little to no details about the crash.

Ally Gert Wilders, the leader of the Dutch anti-immigration Party for Freedom (PVV), added Brussels was an “existential threat” for European Union nations. He said he was convinced states would be better off without the bloc in terms of security and economy, as he again called for the end of mass immigration.

The populist figurehead also said Europe should follow Donald Trump’s example by imposing travel bans to restrict the flow of migrants - or even build walls to make crossing borders impossible. She said: “The European Union is losing its breath. I hope that we will overthrow the European Union from within.”

“We must behave like conquerors … European nations must free themselves from the chains of the European Union.” Delegates also heard from Tomio Okamura, the leader of the Czech Freedom and Direct Democracy party, who accused Brussels of trying to turn the continent into a “single totalitarian state.”

The fire that reduced multimillion dollar homes to ashes was started by someone cooking in a homeless encampment under a freeway nearby.  There is a photo of the burned remains of a stove and a pot, wedged into the scorched soil and blackened tree trunks.  In the words of local councillor Paul Koretz, it "makes a tragic event even more tragic".

The unintended and devastating consequences for the people of Bel Air have come at a time when the scale of homelessness in their city has been revealed to be at shocking levels.  The number of homeless people in Los Angeles County has soared by 23% in the last year.  That is a 23% increase on numbers that had already been declared to be a public emergency. It is also despite millions of dollars in public money being spent to tackle the problem.  

More shocking, homeless encampments in the city have seen an outbreak of hepatitis A, a disease more commonly seen in the developing world.  That outbreak actually began in the homeless encampments in the city of San Diego - self-styled as 'America's Finest City' - and the statistics there are horrifying. Booming economies mean the cost of housing spirals and that is being blamed for driving more people into desperate situations.

How can it be that people are dying as a result of unsanitary conditions on the streets of one of the richest nations on Earth?

Pence’s scheduled trip to the West Bank city of Bethlehem – the birthplace of Jesus and one of the most important sites in Christianity – has been called off, as has his meeting with the leader of the Coptic Christian Church in Egypt.

Pence, a proud evangelical Christian, will pay a private visit to one of Judaism’s holiest sites, Jerusalem’s Western Wall, as soon as he lands in Israel on Wednesday. But he has no plans to visit any churches in the country or any other sites of significance for Christianity. Nor will he be meeting with leaders of the various Christian communities in Israel. It goes without saying that the trip is no longer being billed as an effort to assist embattled Christians in the region.

The turning point was obviously US President Donald Trump’s decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and announcement that the US Embassy would move there. Pence, who is closely aligned with the religious right, is regarded as a driving force behind the move, though Secretary of State Rex Tillerson later said such a move is unlikely to take place during Trump’s current term in office.

Asked to expound on the trip’s purpose, Pence begins by speaking about America’s great love for Israel, followed by its determination to bring peace to the region. Only at the end of his remarks does he mention a desire to help embattled Christians.

Last month, Conejo Valley Unified School District Board meeting became a battlefield. Parents and certain school board members realized that, without so much as parental notification, children were being exposed to unimaginable perversion and pornographic filth under the guise of teaching “literature.” They were able to get a policy adopted requiring parental notification for books with pornographic content.

And yet, when parents and members of the school board objected and suggested that parents should be notified and given the opportunity to opt out their children, those seeking to sexualize captive children exploded. Indeed, critics of the proposed policy libeled parents as religious fundamentalists, white supremacists, and more, according to reports. They also carried signs of “let teachers teach,” as if there were some inalienable right to shatter children's innocence and fill their heads with raunchy sex.

The real issues at stake, though, go far beyond whether children will be exposed to pornographic material in government schools without so much as parental notification. The broader issues include, for instance, “who 'owns' the children and determines what they will be taught: the parents, or government schools’ faculty and administration?” explained columnist George Miller in an editorial for the local Citizens Journal in Ventura County.

In December 2014, the Dallas city council enacted Ordinance No. 29595, which makes it illegal to serve food to the homeless without jumping through a statist myriad of bureaucratic hoops, including a fee, training classes, and written notices. One should not need to file multiple forms and pay a fee to obtain a permit to give food to those in need who are willingly ready to accept it.

Matthew Short, with the aptly named organization, Don’t Comply, and dozens of volunteers from children to adults alike took to the streets of Dallas this week to hand out food, sleeping bags, clothing, and tents to the area’s less fortunate. As TFTP has reported on numerous occasions, often times, police will swoop in and shut down those who would dare defy the authority of the state and conduct charity without a permit. However, most organizations aren’t like Don’t Comply.

As they took to the streets this week, many of the members of the organization openly carried their weapons. This was done — not out of an act of intimidation — but merely to assert rights as well as protect them. The resultant heavily armed group of do-gooders effectively staved off any attempts by police to shut down the charitable efforts. In talking with TFTP, Short tells us that although police drove by fairly often, they never stopped and never attempted to intervene.

As TFTP has reported at length, the war on the homeless, as well as the war on those who want to help them, is relentless. Just last month, during Thanksgiving, a group giving out food in Atlanta was shut down by police because they failed to pay the state for permission to give food to voluntary recipients.

The defence budget will be included in the country’s budget which commences on April 1 2018 and is expected to reach a record-breaking £650 billion (97.7 trillion yen). The majority of the budget is expected to be spent on protecting Japan against North Korea’s nuclear weapons and missile development.

The document specified the purchase of six F-35A fighter jets, four V-22 Osprey tiltrotor military aircraft, as well as the construction of two advanced and compact patrol ships and a new submarine. The Defence Ministry also hopes to develop the next-generation of radar systems, which would have the capability of detecting stealth fighters.

This isn’t the first time a social media powerhouse has come forward with regret for helping create a social media platform either. Facebook’s first president, Sean Parker, opened up about his regrets over helping create social media as we now know it last month. Parker has said that social media creates “a social-validation feedback loop” by giving people “a little dopamine hit every once in a while because someone liked or commented on a photo or a post or whatever.”

Palihapitiya, who worked for Facebook from 2005-2011, expressed his concerns during a recent public discussion at the Stanford Graduate School of Business. He told the audience, “I think we have created tools that are ripping apart the social fabric of how society works.” 

“So we are in a really bad state of affairs right now, in my opinion. It [social media] is eroding the core foundation of how people behave by and between each other. And I don’t have a good solution. My solution is I just don’t use these tools anymore. I haven’t for years,” said Chamath Palihapitiya, the former vice president of user growth. “I don’t know if I really understood the consequences of what I was saying, because of the unintended consequences of a network when it grows to a billion or 2 billion people and it literally changes your relationship with society, with each other,” Parker said. “God only knows what it’s doing to our children’s brains.”

Palihapitiya admitted that social media is “programming” the behaviors of users. “Your behaviors — you don’t realize it but you are being programmed. It was unintentional, but now you gotta decide how much you are willing to give up, how much of your intellectual independence.”

The statement by the Jewish leaders, issued by the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, said Abbas’s speech at the Organization of Islamic Cooperation was “a rejection of peace with Israel.”

“President Abbas has consistently openly promoted the denial of any Jewish connection to Jerusalem to his own people, in the UN and its agencies and bodies, and in international legal fora,” the statement by Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations chairman Stephen M Greenberg and CEO Malcolm Hoenlein said. “His threat to go to the United Nations to undo the US measure – which it cannot do – and to gain recognition of the State of Palestine is the death knell for negotiations.”

“His speech today at the OIC summit in Istanbul is also the latest attack on foundational beliefs of the Jewish faith and historical truth.”

They gave him a head start as he mingled in on the crowded city streets; then a request for his apprehension was given to the computer equipped with the latest AI security software. The AI software combed through millions of images from tens of thousands of cameras in Guiyang, all transmitted back to the master computer, hunting for the reporter.

The results were shocking. It took a total of 7 minutes before police physically apprehended him. Assuming it took a few minutes for police to assemble and walk/run to his location, the actual identification could have taken as little as two minutes. Yes, just two minutes to find a single subject in a city of 3.5 million!

Currently, China has installed 176 million surveillance cameras nation-wide, and it is shooting for 626 million by 2020. Since China has 1.3 billion citizens, there will be at least one camera for every 2 people.

“Wherever they appear or are reinforced, gender stereotypes can lead to mental, physical and social harm which can limit the potential of groups and individuals,” the Advertising Standards Agency (ASA) alleged in its study.

Depictions deemed problematic include “family members creating a mess while a woman has sole responsibility for cleaning it up”, and adverts which “suggest that a specific activity is inappropriate for boys because it is stereotypically associated with girls, or vice-versa.”

Nanette Newman, an actress who appeared in 1980s Fairy Liquid commercials, told the Daily Mail the ban is “ridiculously over the top”. “What a bizarre world we live in where the adverts I starred in might today be considered harmful, yet it’s considered perfectly acceptable for women to be shown on mainstream TV having sex,” she told the Mail.

Campaigners last week demanded toy retailers reboot their catalogues to depict a world in which boys are as likely to play with dolls as girls, after a study on Christmas toy catalogues found girls were nearly seven times more likely to be shown engaging in activities linked to caring or nurturing than young boys.

The addition of a further 150 pay television channels and enhanced 3G technology to the tower in 2009 resulted in the exodus of 27 bird species from Mount Nardi while simultaneously, insect volumes and species variety dropped dramatically.  The construction of a new tower in late 2012 and early 2013, which deployed 4G technology, caused the rapid exodus of a further 49 bird species.

Broomhall estimates that “from 70 to 90% of the wildlife has become rare or has disappeared from the Nightcap National Park within a 2-3 km radius of the Mount Nardi tower complex”.    His data also reveals that:

3 bat species once common have become rare or gone

11 threatened and endangered bird species are gone

11 migratory bird species are gone

86 bird species are demonstrating unnatural behaviours

66 once common bird species are now rare or gone

Broomhall states in his report that “it is evident that pulsed microwaves are particularly toxic”.  He says that this matter “should be considered a National Emergency”. 

NBC’s feature story on depression used scare tactics in its title to imply and suggest a national depression crisis among toddlers. “Generation at risk: America’s youngest facing mental health crisis,” the title reads. While the nation is facing an opiate crisis caused by Big Pharma’s highly addictive production and distribution of opiates, one would be hard-pressed to find many Americans who believe the nation’s toddlers and children are mentally ill.

The article’s authors are Kate Snow and Cynthia McFadden. They write:

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that 1 in 5 American children ages 3 through 17 — about 15 million — have a diagnosable mental, emotional or behavioral disorder in a given year.

Did you catch that? They are trying to convince readers that children as young as 3 years old suffer from mental illness. The article goes on to claim that the children simply need to be diagnosed in order to be treated, prompting readers with troubled children to consider taking their babies to psychiatrists or medical doctors.

Only 20 percent of these children are ever diagnosed and receive treatment; 80 percent — about 12 million — aren’t receiving treatment.

The article then uses an appeal to authority to convince its readers the facts are accurate. They write:

Recent research indicates that serious depression is worsening in teens, especially girls, and the suicide rate among girls reached a 40-year high in 2015, according to a CDC report released in August.

The only problem with their statistics is they come from an organization beholden to special interests, the Center for Disease Control. As The Free Thought Project has reported on numerous occasions, the CDC is rife with controversy and motivated by Big Pharma’s demand for increased profits.
