Kissinger changes stance on Ukraine joining NATO
Kiev has a large amount of Western-supplied arms and the least experienced leadership in Europe, the veteran US politician warns
Former US secretary of state Henry Kissinger has signalled a U-turn in his views on Ukraine’s prospective NATO membership. The veteran politician told The Economist that he now believes peace in Europe cannot be achieved without Ukraine joining the US-led military bloc.
Last fall, Kissinger insisted that “it was not a wise American policy to attempt to include Ukraine into NATO.” He said the bloc’s eastward expansion since the fall of Soviet Union in 1991 had essentially removed Russia’s historic “safety belt,” but insisted that was no justification for Russia’s “surprise attack” on Ukraine.

Young Americans Are Dying at Alarming Rates, Reversing Years of Progress
For decades, advances in healthcare and safety steadily drove down death rates among American children. In an alarming reversal, rates have now risen to the highest level in nearly 15 years, particularly driven by homicides, drug overdoses, car accidents and suicides.
The uptick among younger Americans accelerated in 2020. Though Covid-19 itself wasn’t a major cause of death for young people, researchers say social disruption caused by the pandemic exacerbated public-health problems, including worsening anxiety and depression. Greater access to firearms, dangerous driving and more lethal narcotics also helped push up death rates.
Toxic cancer causing chemicals discovered in all contact lenses tested by scientists
According to a report from aunew.com, New research has revealed that many soft contact lenses from the US are made up of compounds linked to a host of health issues including cancer, liver and kidney disease, autoimmune disorders and fertility problems.
Fluoropolymers are by definition described as PFAS or “forever chemicals” and some contact lenses are found to have extremely high levels of organic flueronic, a marker of PFAS, in each.
They are called “forever chemicals” because they do not naturally break down, and are found in consumer products that resist water, stains and heat.
John Kerry Declares War on US Farmers: Gov’t Farm Confiscations ‘Not Off The Table’
Small farms are significant emitters of nitrogen, according to Biden’s “climate czar” John Kerry who is pushing for the U.S. federal government to crack down on farming in America to combat “global warming.”
Kerry insists that the United States must massively reduce farming to meet the radical “green agenda” goals laid out by World Economic Forum (WEF) and the United Nations (UN).
According to the former Secretary of State, the world can’t tackle climate change without first addressing the agriculture sector’s emissions – and farmers in the US are front and center of his plans.

WHO now trying to sexualize children at BIRTH while UN pushes to decriminalize pedophilia
(Natural News) Now that the powers that be have successfully normalized homosexuality and transgenderism, the next plank in their maniacal social deconstruction agenda is to normalize pedophilia.
The World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations (UN) are leading the charge on this front, with the former calling for sex education to start at birth. The globalist body wants babies to be stripped of their innocence and indoctrinated into every form of perversion possible at the youngest possible age.
Equity vs. Equality: California Reparations Commission Wants to Legalize Racial Discrimination
“With a ‘Reparations Management Council’ to operate independent of the government of San Francisco, what could possibly go wrong?” the Globe asked earlier this week.
San Francisco resident Richie Greenberg has identified that the San Francisco Reparations Plan “installs a neo-Apartheid system on a city of 45,000 Black/African-American residents being given super-prioritized services, funding and extraordinary privilege – out of total city population of 825,000. The result is Apartheid San Francisco, where 5% Black residents take the resources and economic earnings of the 95% non-Black residents.”

"Small farms are significant emitters of nitrogen"?
Nitrogen -- an inert gas by the way -- comprises 70% of Earth's atmosphere. How could small farms impact on atmospheric nitrogen in any way?
Or how about "carbon emissions" IOW carbon dioxide? Umm 🤔 plants need Carbon Dioxide to breathe, perform photosynthesis? If the WEF lunatics achieve their "zero net carbon emissions" insanity, guess what? All the plants on Earth die -- and every other living thing with them!!
Meanwhile, anything being said much less done about the real problems? Plastic in everything especially microplastics, killing the birds and animals that ingest it and performing as hormone mimics; resource depletion, habitat destruction, species loss, planned obsolescence, and the unconscionable amount of WASTE?
When are these brainiacs going to be rounded up, and locked up?
Mistakes were made? He was installed as President. Rigged election.
