Is Leonardo DiCaprio Behind Lawsuits Against Oil Companies?

    0

    by Dr. Jay Lehr and Tom Harris , America Outloud:

    A dark money group was awarded grants from Leonardo DiCaprio’s non-profit foundation, funds that were then transferred to a law firm leading climate nuisance lawsuits across America against oil companies, according to emails examined by Fox News Digital.

    The story is complicated, and so we have invited Chris Horner of the Competitive Enterprise Institute, an expert on the issue, to be our guest on The Other Side of the Story on America Out Loud Talk Radio this weekend, Nov 5 and 6 at 11 am and 8 pm both days.

    To whet your appetite for our show with Chris, we lay out the details of the case as follows:

    Now the Disgraced COVID ‘Experts’ Want ‘Amnesty’?

    by Tanya Berlaga, American Thinker:

    In her recent article in The Atlantic, a Brown University professor, Emily Oster, is calling for “pandemic amnesty.”  She is telling me to “forgive and forget” everyone who was yelling obscenities at me for not wearing a mask in a public park or calling me a mass murderer for posting a picture with a friend visiting.  I must forget all this, the author insists, because all those people had nothing but my well-being in mind!

      Gold Market Roiled As Mystery Buyer Waves In 300 Tonnes

        0

        from ZeroHedge:

        As The Fed has tightened monetary policy at its most aggressive pace in over 40 years, real rates in the US have soared (back into strong positive territory). Historically, that has reduced demand for gold (zero carry) but as the chart below, gold – while notably off its highs – has not cratered as much as some might have expected…

        “With that weight of selling, I was a bit surprised gold wasn’t weaker,” said Ross Norman, chief executive officer of Metals Daily, an information portal focusing on precious metals.

        Fed Chair Powell Sends Stocks on a Wild Ride; Says “Premature to be Thinking about Pausing” Rate Hikes

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

          The Fed released its FOMC decision to raise interest rates by 0.75 percent at 2 p.m. yesterday, bringing its benchmark Fed Funds rate to a range of 3.75 to 4.00 percent. The decision contained this statement: “In assessing the appropriate stance of monetary policy, the Committee will continue to monitor the implications of incoming information for the economic outlook. The Committee would be prepared to adjust the stance of monetary policy as appropriate if risks emerge that could impede the attainment of the Committee’s goals.”

          Algorithms Quietly Run the City of DC—and Maybe Your Hometown

            by Khari Johnson, Wired:

            A new report finds that municipal agencies in Washington deploy dozens of automated decision systems, often without residents’ knowledge.

            WASHINGTON, DC, IS the home base of the most powerful government on earth. It’s also home to 690,000 people—and 29 obscure algorithms that shape their lives. City agencies use automation to screen housing applicants, predict criminal recidivism, identify food assistance fraud, determine if a high schooler is likely to drop out, inform sentencing decisions for young people, and many other things.

              On The Verge Of The Worst Homelessness Crisis In The Entire History Of The United States

                0

                by Michael Snyder, The Economic Collapse Blog:

                If you live in a major urban area, you may have noticed that “tent cities” are starting to pop up all around you.  The worst inflation crisis in decades has combined with the worst drug crisis that we have ever seen to create an unprecedented homelessness crisis.  Every night, even more Americans join the rapidly growing “unsanctioned encampments” that are taking up more and more real estate in our largest cities.  If things are this bad now, how many of our fellow citizens will be sleeping in the streets when economic conditions are much worse a year or two from today?  We are supposed to be the greatest nation on the planet, but with each passing day even more tent cities are established.  Our system is failing, and the widespread economic suffering that we are witnessing right now is truly difficult to comprehend.

                Who’s Playing Nuclear “Chicken” – and Why?

                  by Dennis Small, LaRouche Organization:

                  Nov. 2—The Russian government today issued a formal statement through its Foreign Ministry, urging the “nuclear five” nations—the U.S., U.K., France, China and Russia—to each restate their commitment to the bottom-line policy that “We affirm that a nuclear war cannot be won and must never be fought.” Russia did this in a policy statement, which we reprint in full below, urging that “the most immediate task is to avoid any military clash of nuclear powers,” which could have “catastrophic consequences” for all of humanity. They insisted that de-escalation of the current crisis is the “top-priority task” for everyone.

                  Voting, Vax & Economy Frauds Will End Quickly

                    by Greg Hunter, USA Watchdog:

                    As an investigative reporter for two TV stations and two networks (ABC and CNN), I did a lot of financial stories that centered around some sort of fraud.  The biggest thing I learned is that frauds end quickly.  I use Bernie Madoff as an example.  Madoff conducted a $60 billion Ponzi hedge fund for 20 years.  It all ended Thursday, December 11, 2008, when Madoff was arrested, and he died in prison.  As Forrest Gump said, “And then one day it was over, just like that.”  The gigantic voting fraud scheme that put Biden into office is showing signs it is falling apart.  How much fraud do Democrats have to commit when the leader of their party has about a 10% approval rating.  That is a record my sources say going back all the way to the Civil War.

                    The Great Unwind II

                      0

                      by Alasdair Macleod, GoldMoney:

                      With price inflation rising out of control and interest rates rising strongly, the trading environment for commercial banks has fundamentally changed. With bad debts looming and bond prices in entrenched downtrends, procrastination is now the enemy of bankers.

                      We are at the beginning of The Great Unwind, and this article elaborates on my first article for Goldmoney on the subject published here

                      The imperative for bankers to respond to these conditions overrides all other matters if their businesses are to survive these changed conditions. We are entering a cyclical downdraft of the bank credit cycle which promises to be cataclysmic. And the monetary policy planners at the central banks can do nothing to stop it.

                      If Republicans take the Senate, Sen. Rand Paul could lead “Nuremberg 2.0” investigation into COVID crimes

                        by JD Heyes, Natural News:

                        Sen. Rand Paul is not about to let federal officials responsible for the country’s response to COVID-19 off the hook after botching much of it, which led to needlessly enduring lockdowns, business closures, and kids being kept out of school for a year and a half.

                        Paul has vowed to hold investigations into the government’s response, dating back to the early days of the pandemic with the country’s lead immunologist, Dr. Anthony Fauci, who flip-flopped on the wearing of masks and implored then-President Donald Trump to keep the country locked down for months on end.

                          A photographer captured the photo of a lifetime during a southern California surf competition.

                          Jordan Anast was photographing surfboard maker Tyler Warren riding a wave at the San Onofre Surfing Club contest at around 11:00 a.m. on October 23 when he noticed something leap out of the water.
