IT’S YOUR MONEY BUT YOU CAN’T HAVE IT: EU PROPOSES ACCOUNT FREEZES TO HALT BANK RUNS

The EU banking system is insolvent Mike Shedlock  MishTalk.com  -  JULY 30, 2017   If there is a run on the bank, any bank in the EU, you better be among the first to get your money out. Although it’s your money, the  EU wants to Freeze Accounts to Prevent Runs at Failing Banks . European Union states are  considering measures which would allow them to temporarily stop people withdrawing money from their accounts to prevent bank runs,  an EU document reviewed by Reuters revealed. The move is aimed at helping rescue lenders that are deemed failing or likely to fail, but critics say it could hit confidence and might even hasten withdrawals at the first rumors of a bank being in trouble. The proposal, which has been in the works since the beginning of this year, comes less than two months after a run on deposits at Banco Popular contributed to the collapse of the Spanish lender Giving supervisors the power to temporarily block bank accounts at ailing lenders is “a fe

TRUMP BANS TRANS!

Image
WASHINGTON — President Trump abruptly announced a ban on transgender people serving in the military on Wednesday, blindsiding his defense secretary and Republican congressional leaders with a snap decision that reversed a year-old policy reviled by social conservatives. Mr. Trump made the surprise declaration on Twitter, saying that American forces could not afford the “tremendous medical costs and disruption” of transgender service members. He said he had consulted generals and military experts, but Jim Mattis, the defense secretary, was given only a day’s notice about the decision. Mr. Trump elected to announce the ban in order to resolve a quietly brewing fight on Capitol Hill over whether taxpayer money should pay for gender transition and hormone therapy for transgender service members, which had threatened to kill a $790 billion defense and security spending package scheduled for a vote this week. But rather than addressing that narrow issue, Mr. Trump opted to upend t

TWITTER IGNITES FIRESTORM BLOCKING AT&T BLOG POST QUESTIONING “NET NEUTRALITY”

Twitter denies censorship, claims technical glitch Jerome Corsi  | Infowars.com  - JULY 25, 2017   WASHINGTON, D.C. – A firestorm erupted on Twitter Tuesday, as two top Republican members of Congress attacked Twitter for blocking an AT&T blog post critical of the Obama administration “Net Neutrality” rules on July 12, the day a Soros-funded coalition of Internet content giants including Google, Facebook, Amazon, and PornHub had declared “A Day of Action to Protect Net Neutrality.” At issue is a blog post authored by AT&T Senior Executive Vice President of External and Legislative Affairs Bob Quinn, affirming AT&T’s support of an open Internet but objecting to the Obama administration “Net Neutrality” rules that were based on FCC regulation of the telephone industry. “For more than a decade, whether under a Democratic or Republican administration, AT&T has supported the need for clear and enforceable open internet rules,” Quinn wrote.  “We supported

Facebook CEO accuses Musk of stirring up "doomsday scenarios" regarding the future of A.I. Mikael Thalen  | Infowars.com  - JULY 25, 2017   Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk called Facebook Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg’s understanding of artificial intelligence (AI) “limited” Monday in an ongoing dispute between the two tech titans. While responding to questions during a Facebook Live broadcast Sunday, Zuckerberg accused Musk of drumming up “doomsday scenarios” regarding the future of A.I. “I think people who are naysayers and try to drum up these doomsday scenarios — I just, I don’t understand it,” Zuckerberg said. “It’s really negative and in some ways I actually think it is pretty irresponsible.” “In the next five to 10 years, AI is going to deliver so many improvements in the quality of our lives.” Musk responded online Monday after a Twitter user alerted the entrepreneur to Zuckerberg’s remarks.

Dr Hagai Levine, who led the study, said: “This is an urgent wake-up call for researchers and health authorities around the world to investigate the causes of the sharp drop in sperm count, with the goal of prevention.” Sperm levels among Western men have plunged to a record low, new research reveals. It has fallen by more than 50% in 40 years – and is showing no signs of slowing down. The study did not examine causes but scientists believe the amount of ­chemicals used in everyday products, industry and farming may be behind the crisis. Researchers from the Hebrew University-Hadassah Braun School of Public Health and Community Medicine and the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, screened 7,500 studies that took place between 1973 and 2011.

PASTOR: SENIOR REPUBLICAN TOLD ME OF PLAN TO ‘TAKE OUT’ TRUMP

Image
"You can read between the lines" Paul Joseph Watson  | Infowars.com  - JULY 24, 2017   An evangelical pastor claims he met with a senior Republican Congressman who told him of a plot to “remove Trump suddenly from office”. During an appearance on Revival Ministries International, Rodney Howard-Browne said he spent three hours “from 9:30 in the evening until 12:30am with one of the senior ranking members of Congress”. The pastor said he related the same story on the CBN network but “they cut it out” and that he had decided “to go public with this because we have to.” “He said there is a plot on Capitol Hill to take the president out, I said you mean by impeachment or by indictment – he said no, to take him out, he will be removed suddenly from office,” said Howard-Browne, before adding, “you can read between the lines”.

“POWERFUL”: HUFFINGTON POST CELEBRATES TRANSGENDER “MAN” WITH PERIOD-STAINED PANTS

'Free-bleeding' 4Chan troll adopted for real by leftists Paul Joseph Watson  | Infowars.com  - JULY 24, 2017   An absurd joke that started off as a 4chan troll – the depiction of women openly displaying their period-stained pants in the name of social justice – has actually been adopted for real by the left. “Free-bleeding,” the practice of avoiding feminine hygiene products because they are an oppressive tool of the “patriarchy” and part of male “period-shaming,”  began life  as a hoax created by members of the notorious 4chan message board back in 2014. 4chan pranksters attempted to troll feminists by convincing them that displaying their period-sodden pants was making a stand for women’s liberation. Over the course of the next 12 months, numerous progressives  fell for it completely , embracing the sight of blood-soaked crotches as a social justice cause. Fast forward to last week, when “transgender artist” Cass Clemmer, a biological female, posted a pictu

FTC probing allegations of Amazon's deceptive discounting

by Reuters Thursday, 20 July 2017 20:53 GMT By Diane Bartz WASHINGTON, July 20 (Reuters) - As part of its review of Amazon's agreement to buy Whole Foods, the Federal Trade Commission is looking into allegations that Amazon misleads customers about its pricing discounts, according to a source close to the probe. The FTC is probing a complaint brought by the advocacy group Consumer Watchdog, which looked at some 1,000 products on Amazon's website in June and found that Amazon put reference prices, or list prices, on about 46 percent of them. An analysis found that in 61 percent of products with reference prices, Amazon's reference prices were higher than it had sold the same product in the previous 90 days, Consumer Watchdog said in a letter to the FTC dated July 6. Following receipt of the letter, the agency made informal inquiries about the allegations, according to a source who spoke on background to preserve business relationships. The F

President Trump's famous border wall may be less big and beautiful than he imagined, with a House panel on Tuesday advancing a bill that would allocate funding for just 28 miles of new wall along the U.S.-Mexico border.   The Homeland Security  bill , which passed the House Appropriations Committee, has $1.57 billion in border infrastructure funds, including $498 million for 28 miles of new levee wall in the Rio Grande Valley, amounting to $17.8 million per mile.   The bill includes another $784 million for 32 miles of new "border fencing" in the area, while $251 million was set aside for 14 miles of "secondary fencing" in San Diego, Calif.  The funding builds on $15 million in funding appropriated for 2017 to replace 40 miles of primary fencing, $102 million for 14 miles in San Diego and $175 million for 24 miles in El Paso, Texas.   The 2018 spending bill also includes funds for mobile video surveillance systems, ground sensors, towers and f

Last October, we announced the  Debug Project , an initiative at Verily to reduce the devastating global health impact that disease-carrying mosquitoes inflict on people around the world. Today, I’m happy to announce the launch of  Debug Fresno , our first field study in the U.S. to test a potential mosquito control method using sterile insect technique in collaboration with  MosquitoMate  and Fresno County’s  Consolidated Mosquito Abatement District  (CMAD).  Debug Fresno will target the invasive  Aedes aegypti  mosquito, which can transmit diseases like Zika, dengue, and chikungunya.  Aedes aegypti  first appeared in the central valley of California in 2013, and since then has become pervasive in Fresno County. This study will be the largest U.S. release to-date of sterile male mosquitoes treated with  Wolbachia , a naturally occurring bacterium, and will take place over a 20 week period in two neighborhoods each approximately 300 acres in size. When these sterile males mate with

CASHLESS SOCIETY ALERT: VISA WILL BE GIVING UP TO $500,000 TO RESTAURANTS THAT GO ‘100% CASHLESS’

Image
The push toward a cashless society is becoming more of a shove Michael Snyder   | Economic Collapse  -  JULY 18, 2017   The push toward a cashless society is becoming more of a shove.   Before today I had never heard of  “The Visa Cashless Challenge” , but after reading about it I have to say that I am quite alarmed.  Visa is trying to “encourage” businesses to go cashless, and one of the ways that they will be doing this is by “awarding up to $500,000 to 50 eligible US-based small business food service owners who commit to joining the 100% cashless quest”.  The food industry is still one of the last bastions where cash is used very heavily, and so it makes sense that Visa would want to target that segment.  Of course the more people that use cards to pay for meals, the more money that Visa will make. When I go to restaurants, I almost always use cash, and I know a lot of other people that very much prefer to use cash in those situations as well.  But if Visa has their way,

Location of possible wall segment could trigger leftists Dan Lyman  | Infowars.com  - JULY 16, 2017   IMAGE CREDITS:  WIKI . Work on the first section of the Trump border wall was started on federally-owned land in South Texas, according to  a media report . Anonymous federal officials closely associated with the project confirm that discreet planning has been in-progress for over six months, and construction could commence in January of 2018 on a nearly three mile stretch of barrier that would run through the Santa Ana Wildlife Refuge near McAllen, Texas, which was a hotbed of illegal crossings during the Obama administration.

CAITLYN JENNER WEIGHS RUN FOR SENATE

“I have considered it. I like the political side of it.” The Hill  -  JULY 16, 2017   Olympic gold medalist and transgender activist Caitlyn Jenner is the latest celebrity to reveal she has considered lanching a run for Senate, telling radio host John Catsimatidis she is in the process of determining her future in activism and politics. “I have considered it. I like the political side of it,” Jenner, who is a Republican,  told Catsimatidis on AM 970 in New York. “The political side of it has always been very intriguing to me. Over the next six months or so, I gotta find out where I can do a better job. Can I do a better job from the outside? Kind of working the perimeter of the political scene, being open to talking to anybody? Or are you better from the inside, and we are in the process of determining that,” she said. “Yeah but I would look for a senatorial run,” she continued. Jenner told CNN’s Don Lemon in April she would  “seriously look at a run for office.” Read

U.S. lawmaker calls for hearing on Amazon's Whole Foods deal

Diane Bartz   and   Jennifer Ablan WASHINGTON/NEW YORK (Reuters) - The top Democrat on the U.S. House of Representatives' antitrust subcommittee has voiced concerns about Amazon.com Inc's ( AMZN.O ) $13.7 billion plan to buy Whole Foods Market Inc ( WFM.O ) and is pushing for a hearing to look into the deal's impact on consumers.  The deal announced in June marks the biggest acquisition for the world's largest online retailer. Amazon has not said what it would do with Whole Foods' stores and other assets, but analysts and investors worry the deal could upend the landscape for grocers, food delivery services and meal-kit companies.  U.S. Representative David Cicilline requested the hearing on Thursday in a letter to the chair of the House Judiciary Committee and the subcommittee chairman.
