🇩🇪🇷🇺❄️ Germans are coming to Kaliningrad to winter over high housing and utility prices

Kaliningrad regional governor Anton Alikhanov said:

"We had a conversation with a particular German. We asked what are you doing here, and he said - and we are coming to you to winter".

😏 Renting a flat and paying utility bills for four months in Kaliningrad is like one in Dusseldorf, Germany.

#US DEMOCRATIC PARTY REPRESENTATIVE FOR CALIFORNIA SAYS THAT THE WORD "#PEDOPHILE" IS "DISCRIMINATORY"

Rep. Katie #Porter (D-CA) says that the terms "groomer and pedophile allege that a person is criminal somehow merely because of their sexual orientation and #gender identity"

She will probably deny it, but she appears to be claiming that Pedophilia is merely a "sexual orientation".

#USA The F-35B Lightning II fifth-generation fighter incident at Air Force Base in Texas

An abnormal situation occurred while performing a vertical landing. The pilot ejected, although there was no apparent reason for this.

#TransFormatorBuzzes 💤 :
It is already the second occasion recently of the forward wheel of of the undercarriage "folding in". Something is certainly wrong with this aircraft. As for the ejection, there was a recent footage of Russian Su-25 landing without any undercarriage at all. The pilot risked his life to save the aircraft.

MASSIVE INCREASE IN GREENLAND SURFACE ICE SHEET SUGGESTS POSSIBLE OVERALL GAIN IN 2022

#Greenland gains ice from September to around June each year.

Surface losses therefore only occur during the short summer, and this year that season was cold and snowy.

The summer was said to have been brought to a stop in mid-August with a 20 billion-tonne snow dump on the south of the island.

According to a report on the Electroverse website, this summer chimed with recent years and was characterised by “several monstrous, record-smashing snowfall events”.

Fresh snow is noted to reflect sunlight better, and as a result the onset of melting on the ice sheet was two-and-a-half weeks later than normal.

None of this was particularly unusual.

It’s called #weather.

A couple of thousand miles to the east, the U.K. had a pleasant and at times hot summer.

Two days were very hot, causing a feverish Piers Morgan to tell his TV audience that “we are heading for an apocalypse”. It is also called weather.

"Hello Police. I wish to report a murder!"

Ursula Von den Leyen: "The Commission is ready to mobilize 30 million euros to send about 30 million LED bulbs because in these times of suffering and darkness it is important to bring light to Ukraine. LED bulbs save 88 percent of the energy required for other types of lighting" Along with the LED bulbs they will also send 30 million Uncle Festers to whom they put the bulbs in their mouths to make them light up.

WALL STREET JOURNAL SLAMS GERMAN MIGRATION POLICY, POINTS TO TERRIBLE UNEMPLOYMENT SITUATION

Since 2015, more than 13 million #migrants have arrived in #Germany, yet German companies continue to struggle to find suitable workers

December 15, 2022

The paper raises the question of the “paradoxical” situation regarding why Germany continues to lack so many workers despite taking in nearly 13 million people since 2015, citing data from the Federal Statistical Office.

The problem, the paper notes, is that the migrants who are coming are simply not filling the needs of Germany’s high-skill economy.

Of the 800,000 working-age Syrians and Afghans who arrived during the 2015 migrant crisis, only a third of them actually have a tax-paying job.

#Unemployment among foreigners stands at 12 percent, while for Germans it is 5 percent, and as Remix News has also reported in the past, those migrants who are working often work in low-skilled and low-paying jobs that require the state to continue paying out welfare benefits.


“Many refugees are ill-suited for the German high-skilled labor market,” the paper writes, and Germany is also “not good at training them.”

I can’t stop laughing at this hilarious New York Times article on Why It’s Time to Wear A Mask Again.

The generally excellent Vinay Prasad already caught them citing as “strong evidence” for mask efficacy, this study, which fails to find that masks have any significant effect on rates of influenza infection.

Just link to anything and hope nobody notices, NYTimes bros.

The poor pandemic faithful started out masking to save the lives of the elderly and vulnerable, but now they find themselves in an unending hygiene prison from which the only escape, is admitting that they’ve behaved like fools for the past three years.

If they can’t do that, a bleak future awaits them, of persisting as the solitary idiotic masker in the grocery store and on the train, of demanding all their acquaintances produce negative tests before they’re allowed to come to any party, and, above all, of never being able to relax around other people.

How living like this is better than occasional virus infections, nobody can explain.

WITNESS TESTIFIES BANK THREATENED TO WITHHOLD LOAN IF HE DIDN’T TWEET ‘CLIMATE CHANGE’ TALKING POINTS

Republican Texas state Sen. Bryan Hughes led the hearing on environmental, social and governance (ESG) investing, an approach to investing that scores companies based on their commitment to certain environmental and social causes.

Bud Brigham, the executive chairman of Brigham Minerals, testified Thursday before the Texas Senate Committee on State Affairs that a Wall Street bank allegedly threatened to deny him a loan unless he tweeted out specific political messages.

Brigham highlighted how companies in #China, using slave labor to produce solar panels, are being given higher #ESG ratings than his company because his company operates in the #oil & #gas industry.

An extract from a recent interview by Zelensky:

Question: Is there a risk of evacuation of big cities like Kyiv or Odessa?
"We will hold out when people want to leave - they can leave, but if the city is empty - it's easy to capture."

#TransFormatorBuzzes 💤 :
Is it a suggestion that the city population should be used as a human shield?
Well, we already have got used to the placing of the anti-aircraft missiles in the residential areas. However, that is a new achievement of the Ukrainian military strategy (or is it?).

66 years to release data they originally claimed they never had in the first place is beyond absurd! As has been the case with the entire ordeal surrounding Seth Rich's death, something doesn't seem quite right.

We Are About To Witness A Major Move Toward A Cashless Society

The war on cash has just gone to an entirely new level. When I heard that the European Union was planning to completely ban all cash transactions above 10,000 euros, I had a hard time believing it. There are so many wild rumors flying around on the Internet these days, and so I wasn’t going to write about this unless I could confirm it. Unfortunately, this particular rumor is quite real.

Under the pretext of fighting “money laundering and terrorist financing”, the European Union will be entirely outlawing all cash payments greater than 10,000 euros.

The following comes from the official website of the Council of the European Union…

"By limiting large cash payments, the EU will make it harder for criminals to launder dirty money. An EU-wide maximum limit of €10.000 is set for cash payments. Member states will have the flexibility to impose a lower maximum limit if they wish."

So this means that in some countries the upper limit could potentially be a lot lower than 10,000 euros.

But instead of framing it as a major move toward a cashless society, the EU is trying to claim that this is all about fighting terrorists.

The following is what Zbyněk Stanjura, the Minister for Finance in the Czech Republic, has said about this upcoming change…

"Terrorists and those who finance them are not welcome in Europe. In order to launder dirty money, criminal individuals and organisations had to look for loopholes in our existing rules which are already quite strict. But our intention is to close these loopholes further, and to apply even stricter rules in all EU member states. Large cash payments beyond €10.000 will become impossible. Trying to stay anonymous when buying or selling crypto-assets will become much more difficult. Hiding behind multiple layers of ownership of companies won’t work any more. It will even become difficult to launder dirty money via jewellers or goldsmiths."

Meanwhile, the European Central Bank has been actively considering the possibility of introducing a “digital euro”. The following comes from the official website of the European Central Bank…

"We are working with the national central banks of the euro area to investigate whether to introduce a digital euro. It would be a central bank digital currency, an electronic equivalent to cash. And it would complement banknotes and coins, giving people an additional choice about how to pay."

Well isn’t that convenient?

As they take cash away from the general population, it turns out that they have already been working on the replacement.
