🚨 The Real Reasons The US Has Now Targeted Mexico 🚨

Despite all of their reporting dripping with imperial propaganda, the New York Times can be useful at times. For example, if they start reporting that something needs to be done about [fill in country here], then it generally alerts us all that the US oligarchy/CIA/lizard billionaires have been working towards coup’ing [country] for months already.

So who/what is the Times now telling us we need to do something about?

Mexico.

We - the murderous, blood-thirty United States - must do something to “help” Mexico. Should we send our helpful bombs or our helpful CIA agents or our helpful mercenaries or perhaps our helpful economic wars?

It makes perfect sense that if a country is having some kind of trouble, the only people who can possibly help them are the ones responsible for killing 6 million innocent people in the past few years. It would be like if you had a small fire in your basement and you urgently declared that only Stephen Paddock can help deal with it.

Anyway, the New York Times article along with the other anti-Mexico propaganda in recent months acts as a blinking red alert that the US is working towards a color revolution there (or some other brand of coup attempt). One confirmation of this is recent leaked audio recordings known as “Hondurasgate.”

“[The tapes] allegedly reveal coordination between [Honduran President Juan Orlando] Hernandez, allies of US President Donald Trump, Argentine President Javier Milei and figures linked to Israel to establish a digital media platform aimed at spreading disinformation against the governments of Mexico, Brazil and Colombia.”

This begs the question of why the US ruling psychopaths would want to coup Mexico. Well, the biggest reason is that according to the Donroe Doctrine, we own Mexico (and pretty much everything in the Western hemisphere). We want to steal / pillage / pilfer the resources of Latin America and use them as a baseball bat against the cranium of China in the great power conflict. So there’s that.

But beyond that, there are other reasons the US ruling parasites really despise Mexico and President Claudia Sheinbaum right now. Here are the greatest hits:

Sheinbaum is de-privatizing major oil and energy companies, thereby allowing the profits to go back to the citizens rather than filling the pockets of billionaire psychopaths. The Mexican government also voted to give preferential treatment to the state power company.

Sheinbaum has introduced a universal scholarship program to make sure all children in Mexico can afford an education. (Fun Fact: In the US, there are 43 million people with a total of almost $2 trillion in student loan debt.)

Mexico’s welfare policies during President Lopez Obrador’s six years raised 13.4 million people out of poverty. Sheinbaum is continuing that legacy.

Another Lopez Obrador goal that Sheinbaum carries on — In just six years he tripled the minimum wage from $4.75 per day to $15 a day. Sheinbaum has said she hopes to double it again. (Fun Fact: the US minimum wage has been the same for 17 years.)

Sheinbaum wants to build a million homes and has launched a program to create 0% interest mortgages.

She granted labor rights for app delivery and ride share workers. This means they’re entitled to medical care, paid leave, compensation for an accident, a pension, a year-end bonus and profit-sharing. (Fun Fact: In the US Uber drivers get none of these things but are lobbying for two KFC Family Bucket™ coupons as a Christmas bonus.)

She put forward, and got Congress to approve, cutting the workweek from 48 hours to 40 hours. Meanwhile, in the US Amazon is working people until they die — and then telling the other employees to just step around the bodies.

As with Lopez Obrador, Sheinbaum’s government is operating under the idea of “For the good of everyone, the poor come first.” The Trump administration is operating under the slogan — “For the good of the rich, the poor can go F’ themselves.”

As you can imagine, this list horrifies the American ruling psychopaths. They do not like to see the threat of a good example right across the border. What if Americans actually realize that any of these things Sheinbaum has done are also possible in the United States?? As Donald Trump said recently:

“It’s not possible for us to take care of day care, Medicaid, Medicare, all these individual things. They can do it on a state basis. You can’t do it on a federal. We have to take care of one thing: military protection.”

So while many in Mexico get a free education, a 0% interest mortgage, labor rights, a higher minimum wage, and fewer hours at work, in the US we just get a $1.5 trillion per year military fraud to enrich the biggest bloodthirsty war profiteers on the planet. Sounds fun!

Point is — I agree. We need to coup Mexico.

The system isn't broken - it's working exactly as designed: keep people alive but suffering as long as possible. Keep them dependent on Big Pharma, Big Insurance, Big Hospital, and the corporate profit engine will roar!

In medieval times, within the arms race of ever more demonic torture devices, some sadistic genius came up with the idea of the Little Ease.

This was a prison cell built so small in every dimension that a grown man could not stand upright in it nor lie down at full length nor properly sit.

The pain is relentless and without relief and inflicted by one's own body. Prisoners were known to go insane within a few days. A stay at the Little Ease was considered even more cruel than the rack, the thumbscrew, and the other ghoulish machinery of the Tower of London.

A breeding pig will spend her whole life in a version of that box.

These are social, roaming creatures (more intelligent than dogs) who will never leave this corset of steel.

They have been selectively bred to be bigger than their frames can support. Yet we put them in cells so confined that they cannot comfortably sit, and their attempts to do so (for example, by sneaking their limbs into adjacent stalls) reliably lead to fractures and sprains.

They cannot sweat, yet have nothing to roll around in to cool themselves off. Except their own manure, which (contrary to the common misconception) they are so averse to (thanks to their strong sense of smell) that new sows will often suffer from constipation to avoid soiling the space from which they eat and sleep.

Here is how the writer Matthew Scully described what saw at one of Smithfield’s “gestation barn”:

> “Sores, tumors, ulcers, pus pockets, lesions, cysts, bruises, torn ears, swollen legs everywhere. Roaring, groaning, tail biting, fighting, and other “Vices,” as they’re called in the industry. Frenzied chewing on bars and chains, stereotypical “vacuum” chewing on nothing at all, stereotypical rooting and nest building with imaginary straw. And “social defeat,” lots of it, in every third or fourth stall some completely broken being you know is alive only because she blinks and stares up at you … creatures beyond the power of pity to help or indifference to make more miserable, dead to the world except as heaps of flesh into which the [insemination] rod may be stuck once more and more flesh reproduced.”

—

The Save Our Bacon Act is trying to unroll the few state protections we have against this barbaric cruelty - for example California’s Prop 12 - which banned the sale of pork from pigs kept in gestation crates.

It’s incredibly important we don’t end up with this sort of federal preemption.

SOB will not only kill the most important animal welfare related laws in the US of the past decade, but more importantly, it will also restrict ALL future legislative progress (aka how the animal welfare movement has gotten its biggest wins).

The Senate is currently deciding whether to add the SOB Act to the Farm Bill.

With relatively little money now, we can discourage the most pivotal senators in the Ag committee from backing this amendment.

Defeating this bill is even more important given the amount of philanthropic funding I expect to come online in the next year or two.

It will plausibly be over 10x more expensive to repeal SOB than to prevent it from passing in the first place.

All that money that could be spent transforming our society's relationship to mass animal suffering will instead have to be spent just getting us back to where we are right now.

That's why money spent now fighting this bill (and I mean right NOW) is so effective.

The amyloid hypothesis was unstoppable. Billions poured in. Researchers who questioned it were pushed to the margins.

Critics called it “amyloid mafia” because no alternative view got funded or even considered.

Meanwhile, real scientists were finding deeper drivers of Alzheimer’s. Things like chronic inflammation, metabolic dysfunction, and mitochondrial collapse.

But these discoveries never gained traction because they didn’t lead to blockbuster drugs.

The entire field locked onto a theory that would never cure the disease but could generate infinite research dollars.

[Dr. Heidi Klessig @heidiklessigmd]

Annelise Camp is scheduled to undergo brain death testing — over her family’s objections — today at 9AM CST.

“Because of the lack of high-quality evidence on the subject,” the American Academy of Neurology’s (AAN) brain death guideline was based, not on science, but on 3 rounds of anonymous voting.

Hmm…We’ve been declaring people to be “brain dead” for nearly 60 years…wouldn’t you think there’d be some high quality evidence for it by now?

In the absence of evidence, the AAN guideline was based on the shared biases of a panel of experts which was screened to exclude anyone who might disagree. About 30% of these experts reported a specific conflict of interest with the transplant industry.

The brain death examination consists of a series of bedside tests, because the guideline states that all ancillary tests (EEG, brain blood flow studies, brain scans) have shortcomings, and are not 100% sensitive and specific for brain death.

First, the patient is checked for unresponsiveness, because doctors have no tests for inward awareness: we can only test whether people are able and willing to respond, which is not the same thing. This is not really a fair test because many brain-injured people have cord compression and are unable to respond. Also, a recent NEJM article found covert consciousness with advanced testing in 25% of people who doctors believed to be unconscious.

Second, there should be no motion after a painful stimulus. But certain motions (lifting a limb off the bed, reaching with both hands toward the throat, opening eyes when the nipples are brushed) are allowed as “reflexes.” The guideline admits that it can be difficult to distinguish between volitional and reflex movements, and actually advises asking a friend if you are in doubt, showing the subjective nature of this assessment.

Third, whereas the legal definition of brain death requires the irreversible cessation of all functions of the entire brain, including the brain stem, the brain death guideline just checks a few brain stem reflexes. The guideline also explicitly states that brain death may be declared in the presence of ongoing brain function, in defiance of the law in most states.

Fourth, the patient is disconnected from their ventilator and observed for breathing. The guideline states that parameters for this test are ARBITRARY because there is no scientific data to justify the parameters recommended by the guideline.

So, today for Annelise, (and daily for many other patients around the world) life and death decisions will be made on the basis of an unverified and arbitrary exam for which there is no high-quality evidence.

Brain death is based on pseudoscience. It is an ethical choice masquerading as a medical fact.

I've spent most of my life being used by cats. They are superior beings.

[Dailymeow @Dailymeoww1]

A cat in New Zealand was secretly living between two different homes for nearly five years, and both families thought the cat belonged only to them.

One family named the cat Ollie, while the other knew her as Cleo.

The cat regularly moved between both homes without raising suspicion, receiving food, attention, and care from each family.

When the families found out, they genuinely felt like they had been used by a cat.

Hahaha, I wonder what it feels like to be used by a cat 🤣
