The Digital Euro Could Usher In Total State Control
The digital euro is based on technology that could give the ECB and states extraordinary powers over our lives...
I recently heard one of the most bizarre remarks by European Central Bank (ECB) chief Christine Lagarde that gave me migraines. She said that the eurozone could not go bankrupt, that this is technically impossible because the ECB can provide unlimited liquidity at any time. In plain English, when we run out of money, we print what we need.
Federal Reserve Governor Says CBDC Risks Likely Greater Than Benefits
It’s unlikely that the benefits of a central bank digital currency (CBDC) would be greater than the potential risks.
So said Federal Reserve Governor Michelle W. Bowman on Tuesday (April 18) during a speech at Georgetown University.
“From my perspective, there could be some promise for wholesale CBDCs in the future for settlement of certain financial market transactions and processing international payments,” Bowman said.
Biden rule will redistribute high-risk loan costs to homeowners with good credit
A Biden administration rule is set to take effect that will force good-credit home buyers to pay more for their mortgages to subsidize loans to higher-risk borrowers.
Experts believe that borrowers with a credit score of about 680 would pay around $40 more per month on a $400,000 mortgage under rules from the Federal Housing Finance Agency that go into effect May 1, costs that will help subsidize people with lower credit ratings also looking for a mortgage, according to a Washington Times report Tuesday.
Elon Musk’s Starship explodes on test flight

“Genetic chaos” leads to rapidly developing cancers
A recent study has found that “genetic chaos” leads to rapidly developing aggressive cancers that are difficult to treat.
The part of the cell which “reads the instructions in our DNA” is known as the cytoplasm. The cytoplasm contains over 40 million proteins including RNA molecules. mRNA “vaccines” are designed to invade the cytoplasm and repurpose its RNA mechanisms for other tasks. About as close to “genetic chaos” as we can imagine.

Synthetic embryos have been implanted into monkey wombs
Embryos made from stem cells, rather than an egg and sperm, appear to generate a short-lived pregnancy-like response in monkeys.
Embryos made from stem cells—instead of a sperm and egg—have been created from monkey cells for the first time. When researchers put these “synthetic embryos” into the uteruses of adult monkeys, some showed the initial signs of pregnancy. It’s the furthest scientists have ever been able to take lab-grown embryos in primates—and the work hints that it may one day be possible to generate fetuses this way.
ChatGPT is scraping people’s personal data without their consent – it could become banned in the EU
ChatGPT is an artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot developed by OpenAI and released in November 2022. In the past few weeks, several Western data protection authorities have started investigations into how OpenAI collects and processes the data powering ChatGPT. They believe it has scraped people’s personal data, such as names or email addresses, and used it without their consent.
The Italian authority has blocked the use of ChatGPT as a precautionary measure, and French, German, Irish, and Canadian data regulators are also investigating how the OpenAI system collects and uses data. The European Data Protection Board, the umbrella organisation for data protection authorities, is also setting up an EU-wide task force to coordinate investigations and enforcement around ChatGPT.

"Bombshell filing: 9/11 hijackers were CIA recruits" / "subject to a coverup at the highest levels of the FBI": Not news to those that are knowledgeable about these agencies. I shake my head when I see people writing about how the FBI has "become" corrupt, as if that were a recent development. I won't even comment on the CIA.
