Bitcoin rises as SEC approves crypto equity ETFs and US says it won’t ban BTC
Headlines in the cryptocurrency space this week were heavily influenced by Bitcoin’s price rise, which first started on rumours the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) would approve an exchange-traded fund (ETF) tracking the price of Bitcoin through futures contracts.
Instead, the SEC approved an ETF that provides investors with exposure to BTC through a portfolio of companies with significant exposure to the cryptocurrency. The ETF – called the “Volt Bitcoin Revolution ETF” – filed its initial application in June.
Volt Equity, the firm managing the fund, said a significant portion of its assets would be made up of MicroStrategy shares, which has more than $6 billion in BTC on its balance sheet. The ETF consists of approximately 30 companies, including Tesla, Square, Coinbase, PayPal, and Twitter.

Energy Firm Reveals Scotland's First Underwater Substation for Offshore Wind
Putting substations underwater unlocks a host of clean energy benefits. Substations help to transfer the energy sourced by wind turbines into the grid and into homes and businesses. They are typically installed above sea level, however, moving them down to the seabed provides several benefits. For starters, seawater acts as a natural cooling system. An underwater substation also requires fewer components and no rotating parts. Alongside the stable undersea temperatures, this all increases the reliability and reduces the maintenance cost of a substation anchored to the seabed. https://interestingengineering.com/scotlands-first-underwater-substation-for-offshore-wind

PENTAGON’S FIRST SOFTWARE CHIEF SAYS HE QUIT BECAUSE CHINA HAS ALREADY WON THE GLOBAL TECH WAR
He publicly stated some US government systems were mere “kindergarten level” in comparison.
Nicolas Chaillan, 37, said there is “good reason to be angry” at the US failing to rise to China’s cyber threat, even fearing that it puts his children’s future at risk. “We have no competing fighting chance against China in 15 to 20 years. Right now, it’s already a done deal; it is already over, in my opinion."
He said China will dominate the future of the world by controlling everything from media narratives to geopolitics. “At this point, I am just tired of continuously chasing support and money to do my job,” he said of the pioneering Pentagon job that was “probably the most challenging and infuriating of my entire career.”
He has plans to testify before Congress. [ Article ]

MAINE: MEDICARE AND MEDICAID DATA SHOWS THERE HAVE BEEN 661 DEATHS WITHIN 28 DAYS OF VACCINATION
Speaker: As a percentage of the total deaths caused by C19 in the state, what is that, 60%? Isn't that a signal you should investigate?"
Response: "Those 'processes' to the extent they are reported are investigated and evaluated at the U.S. CDC level."
Speaker: "Don't you think you should investigate those 661 deaths and find out about it pretty quickly since you're are asking (requiring) people to to be injected by October 15th?"
--
This smug piece of shit just referred to deaths as "processes" and refuses to investigate or answer questions because it's "based on premises I disagree with"

PANAMA MILITARY REFUSING ACCESS TO JOURNALISTS COVERING MASS INVASION
Well over 60,000 Haitians are on their way to the southern border. Facilitated by the globalists (UN) in Haiti and Columbia. Biden, Harris, Mayorkas, Congress are all complicit - referring to this invasion of illegal immigrants as "human infrastructure." Once in the states they are bussed and flown around the U.S.
Panama officials say what used to be 800 illegal immigrants per month has jumped to 20,000+
Some indicate this news reporting is focusing on the deadly trek through the Darién Gap, when in fact, most are taking flights. Comment from chat:
"My family lives in Panama and they tell me that these people are arriving by planes and from there they catch another plane for Mexico."

TRUDEAU BANS THE UNVACCINATED FROM TRAVELING WITHIN COUNTRY, LEAVING THE COUNTRY, OR EARNING A LIVING - We went from 2 weeks to flatten the curve, to take the jab or your cut off and left to die.
“The government is seeking to have 100% of Canadians injected with the experimental mRNA jab, which has not been subjected to any long-term testing on humans,” states lawyer John Carpay, President of the Justice Centre.
Trudeau declared that these discriminatory measures are needed to keep people “safe,” INCLUDING CHILDREN. Govt data from every Canadian province, and from countries around the world, show that children and young adults face no threat from Covid.
Medical reports and scientific studies make it clear that both vaccinated and unvaccinated spread C19. There is no scientific basis for turning the unvaccinated into 2nd class citizens. [ Article ]
It seems like this is where Biden is taking the U.S. as well.

LEBANON CITIZENS HAVE HAD THEIR SAVINGS FROZEN BY THEIR BANKS AND THEY CANNOT WITHDRAW THEM ANY LONGER
This is the latest development with an issue that has been building in Lebanon for over a year now. With banks locking the citizens’ funds, they are left with no other option but to break into the locked banks.
Why is this going on? Fractional reserve and an absurd amount of corruption.
The Lebanese security forces have prevented depositors from storming Beirut bank after they have been blocked from withdrawing their money. Since the beginning of this economic crisis, Lebanon’s currency lost 90% of its value, and the local banks have imposed capital controls. [ Source ]

THE MORE CITIZENS THEY INJECT, THE HIGHER THE CASE NUMBERS GO
And corrupt media and politicians are there, ready to parrot the BigPharma lies to the brainwashed group-think masses...that "the only way out is 100% compliance’’.
When will Americans wake-up and realize they are being lied to? If we dont stand up against this tyranny, the next step is camps and forced vaccination. Or worse.

WE STAND TOGETHER
What's happening now is the purge of every red-blooded American who hasn't fallen for the mainstream media psyop. We cannot wait until we are on our knees to take a stand. Get organized with your community, and be ready to defend it.
"This has nothing to do with your health. The people they are kicking out of Hospitals, Law Enforcement, Military, etc...these are the people who were not going to comply with tyranny. They took an Oath to the Constitution. This is what Communist Dictators do. Getting rid of any opposition to the tyranny that is going to come...and quickly."
"They need everyone compliant. They need everyone on board with the program. I back the blue. However, I am keenly aware that there are assets that have been strategically placed in various high-level positions around this nation"
