Wyoming Mayor Says ‘Third-World Stuff’ Happening in City Overrun With Homeless People

from The Epoch Times:

A city in Wyoming has been overwhelmed with a growing number of homeless people, who have damaged a local hotel that would require millions of dollars to fix and left hundreds of pounds of human feces in the downtown area, according to its mayor.

Casper Mayor Bruce Knell, in an interview with local news media Cowboy State Daily published on Aug. 31, said the city’s homeless population had topped about 200 people, creating “a mess” as they roam the city’s parks and streets.

“It’s like nothing I’ve ever seen. It’s third-world country stuff happening in Casper, Wyoming,” Mr. Knell said.

Trump vs. COVID? Finally?

by Tom Renz, Esq., America Outloud:

I want to talk about Donald Trump and COVID today.

Trump came out recently and made a big statement about COVID being used to steal the election. I tweeted a bit and put a few things out there on this, but I haven’t talked about it much on the show. Someone I’ve been listening to a little bit is Jenna Ellis, Trump’s former lawyer. While I disagree with her jumping ship to the DeSantis boat, some of what she’s said regarding Trump’s COVID response has been pretty interesting.

by Leo Hohmann, Leo Hohmann:

Mercedes Benz Stadium in Atlanta recently welcomed the introduction of “Benzie the Dronedog,” a robot that has facial-recognition capabilities and will patrol the stadium to keep an eye on fans. Benzie will monitor 11 acres around the stadium, continuously uploading real-time video of everything and everyone he sees. He has night-vision capabilities, can read license-plates and sniff for explosives. But is he armed?

 

We Have Replaced Wisdom with Technology and We Will Suffer the Consequences

by Brian Shilhavy, Health Impact News:

Are you prepared for the post-technological age?

It has been a while since I have published an article on the coming Big Tech crash that began in 2022.

There has been a bit of a reprieve to this coming crash here in 2023, with the $trillions of dollars being invested into the AI hype, but all that is doing is creating a huge economic bubble that is going to make the Big Tech crash even worse when this economic bubble bursts.

D.C Watchdog Files Lawsuit to Block Trump from 2024 Ballot

by Frank Bergman, Slay News:

A Washington D.C. watchdog group has filed a lawsuit that seeks to block President Donald Trump from appearing on the 2024 election ballot in Colorado.

The suit cites the 14th Amendment in court filings and blames Trump for Jan. 6.

The group, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW), filed the lawsuit in Colorado under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment.

The lawsuit falsely alleges that President Trump led an “insurrection” against the United States.

CREW issued a statement on its website that reads:

“Betrayed Customer Base”: Backlash Erupts After Gun Safe Company Gives FBI Customer’s Passcode

from ZeroHedge:

Liberty Safe, one of the leading gun safe manufacturers in the country, provided FBI agents with the combination of a safe belonging to an individual who attended the J6 protest, according to the Washington Examiner. This sparked instant backlash on social media among conservatives, calling for a ‘Bud Light-style’ boycott of the ‘not so safe’ company.

Days ago, conservative comedians and YouTubers Keith and Kevin Hodge shared a lengthy post on X about a friend whom the Feds raided over “crimes related to January 6th.” They said the FBI could access his Liberty Gun Safe because agents called the manufacturer for the passcode.

Study Finds 75 Percent of U.S. Banks Didn’t Hedge Interest Rate Risk; Unrealized Losses on Securities $516 Billion at End of First Quarter

by Pam Martens and Russ Martens, Wall St On Parade:

A group of academics have conducted a study that found that during the fastest pace of Fed interest rate hikes in 40 years, the majority of U.S. banks failed to hedge their interest rate risk. The report’s findings include the following:

“Over three quarters of all reporting banks report no material use of interest rate swaps.”

“Only 6% of aggregate assets in the U.S. banking system are hedged by interest rate swaps.”

“Banks with the most fragile funding – i.e., those with highest uninsured leverage — sold or reduced their hedges during the monetary tightening. This allowed them to record accounting profits but exposed them to further rate increases. These actions are reminiscent of classic gambling for resurrection: if interest rates had decreased, equity would have reaped the profits, but if rates increased, then debtors and the FDIC would absorb the losses.”

Scientists Have Created A Human “Entity” That Has No Mother Or Father

by Michael Snyder, The Economic Collapse Blog:

Scientists all over the world continue to “play God”, and we are all going to have to live with the consequences.  Every single day, incredibly bizarre experiments are being conducted in secret laboratories all over the planet.  I have frequently warned my readers about the very deadly diseases that are being developed in such laboratories, but other types of extremely sick experiments are happening as well.  For example, it is being reported that one team of researchers has now been able to create a human “entity” that does not have a mother or a father.  In fact, it was created “without using sperm, an egg or a womb”

Wikipedia Founder Warns Site Is Run by CIA to Brainwash the Public

by Sean Adl-Tabatabai, The Peoples Voice:

The founder of Wikipedia has issued a stark warning to the public about the site he helped create, claiming that the U.S. government has taken it over as a tool for “information warfare” against the public.

Millions of unwitting Americans use Wikipedia as an authoritative source of information on the Internet. Google and social media companies promote Wikipedia to the top of their search results and use the data posted on the site as definitive ‘facts’ when users are looking for information.

Wall Street Is Out To Make Argentina a Bloody Example for Any Nation That Tries To Join the BRICS

by Dennis Small, LaRouche Organization:

Sept. 3—There are certain battles that cannot be avoided and must be won. One such is the battle to get the United States and Western Europe to change their current geopolitical confrontation course with Russia and China, a course meant to enforce the bankrupt trans-Atlantic financial system and its unipolar world order. The alternative to winning that fight is probable thermonuclear war.

Where’s the Recession?

by Jim Rickards, Daily Reckoning:

No sooner had the BRICS Summit in South Africa ended on Aug. 24 that Federal Reserve Chair Jay Powell took the podium at the Fed’s annual retreat in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, on Aug. 25.

What did Powell say, and what are the implications for investors and global markets? Let’s review…

Subject to the usual qualifiers about data dependence and observing economic developments, Powell’s remarks at Jackson Hole were unqualifiedly hawkish.
