from 21st Century Wire:
The indictment of former President Donald Trump on Thursday by a grand jury in Manhattan is an assault on democracy.
There is no evidence of a crime being committed in the Stormy Daniels affair; even if there were, the statute of limitations on the supposed charge has expired, and the state cannot evade it by inventing a federal crime. The indictment is simply an attempt to prevent the leading opposition candidate from contesting the 2024 election.

Leftist judge Juan Manuel Merchan, who oversees President Trump’s sham case on junk felony charges, made political contributions to a nonprofit fundraising platform for Democratic candidates and progressive groups.
According to FEC data, Judge Juan Merchan from New York donated to Act Blue earmarked “Stop The Republicans” and “Biden For President.”
Democratic fundraiser Act Blue is the payment processor for the majority of Democrats’ political contributions in the 2020 campaign cycle, DC Patriot reported.

EU and NATO policymakers are no longer interested in finding out who was behind the bombing of the Nord Stream pipelines, the Washington Post reports.
From The Washington Post, “Investigators skeptical of yacht’s role in Nord Stream bombing”:
‘Don’t talk about Nord Stream’
For all the intrigue around who bombed the pipeline, some Western officials are not so eager to find out.

Alphabet Inc.’s Google is testing a new price guarantee program for Google Flights, which will refund your money if the cost of your booked flight drops.
“On Google Flights, you can already see whether current prices are low, typical, or high compared to historical averages. Now, we’re going a step further with a new pilot program for price guarantees in the US If you see a flight with the price guarantee badge, it means we’re confident that the price you see today won’t get any lower before takeoff,” according to a Monday blog post.
“We’ll monitor the price every day until departure, and if it does go down, we’ll send you back the difference via Google Pay,” the post continued.
Currently, Google Flights displays the new price guarantee badge on domestic US flights and some international flights departing from the US.

An estimated one in six people worldwide are unable to conceive, the organization says
Infertility affects one in six people worldwide, the World Health Organization has revealed in a new report. While the WHO could not determine if infertility has increased or decreased, the report comes amid warnings of declining sperm counts worldwide.
Published on Tuesday, the report stated that as of 2022, 17.5% of the global population experienced infertility at some point in their lives. To arrive at that figure, WHO researchers analyzed more than 130 separate studies from 1990 to 2021, and found similar results across the world.

They ‘should be considered as co-conspirators’
A new court filing from Special Counsel John Durham, who was appointed to investigate the false “Russia collusion” claims made by Democrats in 2016 about President Trump, has what a report calls “smoking gun evidence” on what apparently was a “conspiracy” to damage the president.
The scenario was outlined in a report by John Solomon at Just the News.

President Donald Trump is being arraigned on the basis of sealed charges. It is unclear why the charges are sealed. Imagine arresting someone on the basis of charges kept from the person. It happens in America as it did in Stalin’s Soviet Union.
Perhaps the charges are kept secret so that the media can defame Trump by reporting that his arrest is “related to his alleged involvement in a hush money payment and subsequent cover-up involving a purported affair with adult film star Stormy Daniels,” as Sputnik International reported this morning. Note that Sputnik is a Russian news service and not part of the US media’s campaign against President Trump. But as the charges are sealed, Sputnik only has the US presstitutes’ account of the indictment. The account is totally false.
from ZeroHedge:
If China thought trade war with Trump was bad, little did they know how much worse it would get under Joe “Big Guy” Biden.
As Rabobank’s Michael Every wrote this morning, “don’t forget President Biden is already running a US trade policy far more protectionist than his predecessor’s” and the latest example of that came this morning when Japan decided to join United States and the Netherlands in restricting exports of chipmaking gear to China, as the cold chip war between China and the west enters an exciting new phase.

A major development last week was the large amount of gold issued by JPMorgan over the first two days of the COMEX April contract. Total gold deliveries by JPMorgan of 14,326 contracts, including 10,682 contracts (1.07 million ounces) by JPM from its proprietary house account were the largest by JPM in history. This is big news because it demonstrates clear and blatant price manipulation by JPMorgan. With more than 19,000 contracts of gold standing for delivery, what would have been the price of gold, had JPM not delivered more than 10,000 contracts from its house account? Even the dimmest of wits (say at the Justice Dept or the CFTC) should be able to conclude that without JPMorgan delivering this many gold contracts, gold prices would have had to increase enough to attract others to take JPM’s place.

The final leg of the Fed’s stool was kicked out from under them Tuesday morning when the latest JOLTS job openings report showed a dramatic slowdown in the U.S. labor market. It’s now not a question of “if” the Fed will cut rates, it’s a matter of “when”.
How many times have you heard Fed chairman Jerry Powell describe the U.S. labor market as “robust” or “firm”? Just go back to his latest, post-FOMC press conference, and you’ll find several mentions of this alleged signal of economic strength.
