The arrest of Sam Bankman-Fried yesterday was sudden and unexpected in light of Bankman-Fried’s plan to testify before Congress. As a criminal defense attorney, my reaction to the arrest last night remains unchanged: this is the first time that I can recall where prosecutors moved aggressively to stop a defendant from making self-incriminating statements. His testimony would have been entirely admissible and likely devastating at trial.

The largest oil-producing countries, led by Saudi Arabia and Russia, decided on December 4 to maintain current production levels in the face of uncertainty and the entry into force of new sanctions against Moscow. Representatives of the thirteen members of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), led by Riyadh, and their 10 allies, headed by Moscow, decided to stick to the course agreed in October to reduce production by two million barrels per day until the end of 2023.

According to a report by The Times released on December 9, 2022, the Pentagon gave a tacit endorsement of Ukrainian attacks inside of Russian territory.
The The Times report cited anonymous United States defense officials who no longer fear that such maneuvers could provoke a fierce Russian response.

President Joe Biden suggested Tuesday that anyone who criticizes child sex change surgeries is responsible for “racism, anti-Semitism, homophobia [and] transphobia” — all of which are “connected.”
Biden insisted we have to “protect” transgender children by giving them the “care they need” (i.e. sex changes) “so they know they are loved.”
“Folks, racism, anti-Semitism, homophobia, transphobia — they are all connected.”

The brotherhood that forms among the oppressed and persecuted never lasts, British historian and art theorist Simon Elmer says in his new book, The Road to Fascism – For a Critique of the Global Biosecurity State (London 2022).
He goes on to quote philosopher Hannah Arendt: “The humanity of the insulted and injured has never yet survived the hour of liberation by so much as a minute. This does not mean that it is insignificant, for in fact it makes insult and injury endurable; but it does mean that in political terms it is absolutely irrelevant.”

Some German and other European mainstream media reported early on 7 December 2022 an attempted coup in Germany. Extreme right wing “groups”, linked to Germany’s right wing party AfD (Alternative for Germany), attempted to overthrow the current German government in a coup.
As reported by several media, about 3,000 German police and possibly military were roaming 11 of the 16 German Bundesländer (German Federal States), and arrested some 25 to 35 suspects, including they say one Russian citizen. Of course, bad-bad Russia must be involved. They had links to “terrorist groups”, who were about to take over Berlin.
Can you imagine this to happen in one of the most civilized countries in Europe? Well, that’s the story. But the story is so weak, it wasn’t picked up by many mainstream media.

After being re-elected in November, U.S. Senator Ron Johnson is wasting no time, helping expose the covid-19 vaccines and the historic crimes against humanity that have taken place under the guise of “public health.”
The latest congressional round table was titled, COVID-19 Vaccines: What They Are, How They Work and Possible Causes of Injuries. At the meeting, Senator Johnson was flanked by Dr. Peter McCullough and Dr. Ryan Cole — two prominent voices fighting for truth, medical freedom, and scientific integrity. During the meeting, they heard new evidence on excess mortality among the vaccinated. The evidence reveals that the population is being culled faster through the use of mRNA vaccines and coercive mandates.

‘The most egregious political scandal in recent history’
In the flood of information from Elon Musk’s release of internal Twitter documents – the “Twitter Files” – both pundits and the public are missing “the most egregious political scandal in recent history,” contends Washington attorney and political commentator Margot Cleveland.
The big story, writes The Federalist’s senior legal correspondent, is that the FBI “interfered in the 2020 election by lying to tech giants about the Hunter Biden laptop story to induce Twitter, Facebook, and likely others to censor the story.

It has been a bad couple of months for BlackRock and its CEO, Larry Fink. Earlier this quarter, one analyst downgraded its stock due to the risk posed by Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) investing. Several states have announced they will remove pensions and other state treasury funds from the asset manager. Last week, the firm was subpoenaed by the Texas State Senate. Finally, on Friday, North Carolina Treasurer Dale Folwell called for BlackRock CEO Larry Fink to step down in a bombshell letter addressed to the investment company’s Board of Directors, which includes Fink.

EDF says results “unexpected.”
The results of a global poll are sure to shock those who claim that the “science is settled” on climate change – nearly four out of ten people believe it is natural, not man-made.
The worldwide IPSOS survey asked people in 30 countries across five continents to give their views on what they thought was causing climate change.
