The UK government, led by Prime Minister Keir Starmer, is intensifying its push for a digital identity system, with the launch of the Office for Digital Identities and Attributes and its Digital Identity and Attributes Trust Framework (“DIATF”).
The government and media are promoting digital identity as a convenient and efficient solution, with Tony Blair and other proponents touting its potential benefits, but ignoring concerns about privacy and potential risks.
The digital ID system could lead to increased surveillance and control and is likely to be tied to Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), which would require a government-backed digital identity system.

Nymphia Wind is a Taiwanese drag queen who won RuPaul’s reality show “Drag Race” earlier this year.

Over the course of my lifetime I have watched the role of men taken away. The role of the male as provider, defender, and disciplinarian is no more. It was destroyed by feminists.
To clarify “feminist”: In the past when I have criticized feminists older women who had careers asked why I thought women shouldn’t have careers. Their idea is that a feminist is a woman who has a career. But women have always had careers as mothers, homemakers, grandmothers, school teachers, nurses, secretaries, writers, artists, musicians, scientists, and even spies such as Eve Gordon who made during World War II 112 parachute jumps into occupied Europe. Even in pre-feminist days, one of my aunts despite being married had a career outside the home. She enjoyed the discipline of getting to work on time, the interaction with other people, and meeting new ones.

There is currently a case before the Hague that will determine the UN’s capacity to bully the rest of the world on climate change. Here is the UN’s statement on the importance of the ongoing legal case:
This opinion on climate change can help inform subsequent judicial proceedings such as domestic cases, influence the diplomatic process and will likely be cited in thousands of climate-driven lawsuits around the world…

Since the 2024 election, ratings at the far left cable news networks CNN and MSNBC are way down. Joy Reid is even looking at a potential pay cut to stay on the air. It’s easy to see why.
These networks told their faithful viewers that there was no way Trump could win, right up until they were forced to admit on election night that Trump had not only won, but that he had won big.

Documents that shed the light on the CIA’s notorious mind control program decades ago, are being published by a transparency group.
Historic memos about brainwashing “Russian agents” and drugging US inmates with LSD have already been put online.
RT reports: The National Security Archive, an NGO dedicated to using Freedom of Information Act requests to expose government secrets, put some of the records online on Monday to mark 50 years since the CIA’s activities were exposed by the New York Times. A full collection of more than 1,200 documents is to be hosted by ProQuest, a scholarly research assistance firm.

In 1634 the Dutch became enamored of tulips. So much so that many neglected their ordinary affairs in order to pursue the tulip trade. Soon, tulip sales were posted on the Stock Exchange of Amsterdam. People bought tulip bulbs on credit hoping to recoup their expenses as the value climbed. By 1637 the market turned, as markets always do, and investors had to sell their bulbs at a loss, some declaring bankruptcy. Prices returned to normal the following year.

Dramatic evidence has been published in a number of recent science papers that carbon dioxide levels are already ‘saturated’, meaning little or no further warming is to be expected and rising CO2 levels are all beneficial.
Half of human emissions are being quickly pushed back into the biosphere, the scientists say, causing substantial, famine-busting plant growth, while the rest is entering a ‘saturated’ atmosphere and having a minimal effect on global temperatures. One of the papers accepting the human involvement in rising CO2 is published by the CO2 Coalition, which notes: “We like CO2, so should you.”
