@JAMnewsCaucasus Subsidies create dependency, at worst corruption. Small producer countries need practical help: carton box manufacture, insurance against spoilage, and advice on negotiations with venal grocers.

The same LED lights we are all forced to use in our homes, they produce Blue light which is harmful not only to humans but to animals and insects.
You might wonder why everything we are forced to adopt is always harmful to us ?

@JadeHelmReports Listen to this again: the U.S. military does not do healthcare (except for veterans) so when it developed mRNA Coof shots (DARPA/BARDA) they were not for your health!

@BBCNewsnight Black youth, after the Brixton riots, got the Scarman Inquiry (1982) and then Macpherson (officially the Stephen Lawrence Inquiry) 18 years later.

Will the establishment address this issue, after Henry Nowak's murder, or is the intention to let it fester?

[MoneyCircus @MoneyCircus]

Do you need any more evidence that police are not simply indoctrinated, they are under some sort of mind control.

[Liz Churchill @liz_churchill10]

Unbelievable.

“I’m black…stand behind me”

A Black protester shields white Britons from Starmer’s baton-wielding thugs as the Police Henchman freeze like they’ve seen a ghost….

Multiple views of police kicking a protester in Southampton in the head. A former officer says they would have known this risked killing him. Did they want a second death?

Are we watching a script? Is the message The Hunger Games? Are the authorities at an inflection point where they cannot show weakness lest the people realise their strength?

Valid questions remain about Nowak's death — you can't deny the police who inverted the attacker and victim were to a degree following a script, a script called equity.

[Steve's Law 🇬🇧 @MaximusChud]

Found multiple views of the same event.

They were trying to kill him. Watch how many times they strike him in the head.

[MoneyCircus @MoneyCircus]

Some of those who are now protesting in the name of Henry Nowak a couple of decades ago denounced Polish plumbers for taking their jobs.

Only after the Syrian war and the surge of another migrant cohort in the bumper year of 2015 was attention switched, while shielding the bureaucrats who are engineering these changes in the economy.

This is not a deflection; it is the issue.

Robert Jay Lifton outlined four main approaches totalist systems use to reshape people’s thinking:

- **Coercion**: “Change or face penalties/consequences.”
- **Exhortation**: Moral pressure — “Become a better person by adopting these ideals” (guilt, privilege, allyship appeals).
- **Therapy**: Reframe dissent as personal pathology — “You have unconscious bias; our guidance will heal you.”
- **Realization**: “Embrace this to reach your full potential.”

Totalist environments lean hardest on the first two. Lifton drew this from studying Chinese Communist thought reform.

🚨🇬🇧 The BBC "accidentally" misquoted Farage's "pure cold rage" as "white cold rage".

A one-word edit that turned Farage's grief over murdered teen, Henry Nowak, into a racial dog whistle.

They apologized and scrubbed the episode.

These mistakes only ever run one direction.

Funny how that works...

[Mr PitBull Stories @MrPitbull07]

Opossums live short, difficult lives, yet they spend their nights doing work many people never see.

Most only live about one to two years in the wild. They move through backyards, forests, roadsides, and neighborhoods after dark, searching for food while avoiding cars, dogs, predators, and harsh weather. Their lives are brief, but their role in nature is meaningful.

Opossums help clean the world around you. They eat pests, insects, carrion, and sometimes even venomous snakes. They also help reduce ticks, which can carry disease. In their quiet way, they support the balance of the places they pass through.

Still, many people fear them because of how they look or because they appear at night. But opossums are usually shy, gentle animals. When scared, they often freeze, hiss, drool, or play dead because they want to survive, not attack.

Kindness can be simple. Give them space. Do not harm them. Slow down when you see one near the road. Let them keep doing the work nature gave them.

Opossums may not live long, but they leave the world cleaner than they found it.

Alastair Crooke (@AWCrooke): “Serious commentators in Russia are writing that Russia has to understand that the attack on Russia from Europe, particularly Europe and the US, but particularly Europe, is not about regime change. It’s not about pushing Putin out of office; it is to finally destroy Russia, to break it up, and to destroy it as a powerful state.

So the lessons are sort of widening, and the results are coming back to us in different ways. That’s why the Russians are being so tough now and warning the Europeans and warning others that you can’t go on. You can’t just go on firing your missiles, Britain giving Ukraine 120,000 drones and some long-range missiles to fire deep into Russia to kill our people. And you think that you can do this with impunity, and you just do more and more and more and ratchet it up further and further. They say that’s just not acceptable.

And I think the turning point came with the destruction of that dormitory with all those young teenagers who were killed. Twenty-one of them were killed. They said that’s the last straw; we’re not going to tolerate this, and if you don’t get it, we’re going to follow the Iranian pattern. You’ve got some vulnerable assets in different places. Using conventional weapons, we may have to hit those. Later, if you still don’t get the message, then it may turn to tactical nuclear weapons.

And the Iranians understand this. That’s why they say we will only believe that the blockade on the Strait is lifted when the naval vessels are removed from the Gulf altogether, not just moved back a little bit and not just half done, and no promises about relief or your frozen assets coming. We’ll believe it when we see it in the bank account. Until then, we believe nothing.”

"On another occasion his false moustache came unstuck during an important meeting."

A fantastic obituary in the Times of a pretty incredible person, former MI6 head, Sir Alex Younger.

Russia's nuclear doctrine provides for the use of nukes if the country's territorial integrity is breached by aggressors, Sergey Ryabkov reminded reporters on the sidelines of the SPIEF:
