Biden: Putin 'cannot remain in power'
US President Joe Biden has called for Russian President Vladimir Putin to be deposed. He made a direct appeal to the Russian people during a speech in Warsaw, where he had met for talks with high-ranking Ukrainian officials on Saturday. "For God's sake, this man cannot remain in power," Biden declared at the end of an emotionally overwrought speech in the Polish capital's Royal Castle. While he has previously denounced Putin as a "war criminal" and a "dictator," and lobbed at him all manner of other geopolitical insults, this was his first recorded demand that the president be removed from office.

Ukrainian officials 'cautiously optimistic' after talks with Biden
Ukrainian Defense Minister Alexey Reznikov has said he is feeling "cautiously optimistic" following talks with key US government figures, led by President Joe Biden, in the Polish capital, Warsaw, on Saturday. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, and Secretary of State Antony Blinken also joined the meeting, along with Kiev's Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba. Speaking afterwards to journalists, Kuleba said his country had received "additional promises from the United States on how our defense co-operation will evolve." The official also revealed that Kiev and Washington had agreed on possible ways to put pressure on European Union states to press them to impose more sanctions on Russia. A statement published by the White House said President Biden had updated the two Ukrainian ministers on "US efforts to rally the world in support of Ukraine's fight against Russian aggression," as well as its "ongoing actions to hold President Putin accountable."

German states outlaw display of Russian army's 'Z' symbol
Authorities in Lower Saxony and Bavaria have banned the display of the 'Z' symbol that has become synonymous with the Russian invasion of Ukraine. It is unclear if other German states will follow suit. Two German states on Saturday said they have outlawed public displays of the "Z" symbol used by the Russian army in their invasion of Ukraine. Anyone who brandishes the symbol at demonstrations or paints it on cars or buildings in a show of support for Vladimir Putin's war could risk up to three years in jail or a fine in Lower Saxony or Bavaria. Comment: Russia's incursion is a response to a multi-decade long provocation by the US and NATO, even Western experts and propaganda media admit that.

Lugansk People's Republic mulls attempt to join Russia through Crimea-style referendum
The head of the Lugansk People's Republic has told journalists about plans to hold a referendum The Lugansk People's Republic (LPR), one of the two breakaway Donbass territories recognized by Moscow as independent states in late February, is planning to hold a plebiscite on joining Russia "in the near future," its leader has revealed. There has been no indication that the Kremlin would accept such a demand. Last month, President Valdimir Putin recognised the independence of the LPR, but almost all of the word considers it to still be part of Ukraine. Speaking to journalists on Sunday, Leonid Pasechnik said that he thought "in the near future a referendum will be held in the republic, where people will exercise their absolutely constitutional right, and give their opinion with respect to joining Russia." The official added that he was "somehow sure that's precisely the way it will be."

How to deal with a sociopath
The following are 13 rules for dealing with sociopaths in everyday life by Martha Stout in her book The Sociopath Next Door. I thought we could look at these in regards to the sociopaths who rule over us (and are probably not next door, but neither are they far away from our everyday lives). 1. The first rule involves the bitter pill of accepting that some people literally have no conscience I'm not sure that this is such a bitter pill given what we now know about the sociopath, although it is a difficult thing to come to terms with - after all, they do seem to be a lot like us, yet at the same time very different. For our purposes of dealing with the sociopath in the White House (or the UN, WEF, NIH, take your pick of institution) I think the first rule is accepting that they are there, in those places of influence, and they have no conscience whatsoever (and that's exactly the way they want it).

George Floyd protesters to receive more than $14M for injuries suffered
A group of protesters injured by police during the George Floyd demonstrations in 2020 has been awarded $14 million in compensation in a Denver civil rights settlement. After a three-week trial, a jury on Friday found that the city and county of Denver violated the First and Fourth Amendment rights of 12 protesters. Jurors found that Denver failed to properly train officers, resulting in police violating the plaintiffs' constitutional rights. Attorneys for the protesters argued rights were violated by police shooting them while they were protesting peacefully. Objects shot toward the crowd included tear gas, flashbang grenades, pepper balls, rubber bullets and other projectiles. According to the lawsuit: "Officers used these weapons indiscriminately and without any or adequate warning, even at times when the crowd was merely chanting, kneeling, or standing with their hands up." The plaintiffs' injuries included a skull fractured by a less-lethal projectile, eyes and throat burning...

War in Ukraine could lead to food riots in poor countries, warns WTO boss
Rocketing global food prices as a result of the war in Ukraine could trigger riots from those going hungry in poor countries, the head of the World Trade Organization has said. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala warned food-producing countries against hoarding supplies and said it was vital to avoid a repeat of the Covid pandemic, when rich countries were able to secure for themselves the bulk of vaccines. In an interview with the Guardian, the WTO director general expressed concern about the knock-on effects of Russia's invasion - stressing the dependence of many African countries on food supplies from the Black Sea region. Okonjo-Iweala said: "I think we should be very worried. The impact on food prices and hunger this year and next could be substantial. Food and energy are the two biggest items in the consumption baskets of poor people all over the world. It is poor countries and poor people within poor countries that will suffer the most." Okonjo-Iweala, a former Nigerian finance minister,...

Russia demanding Europe pay for gas in rubles could have huge repercussions
Moscow's demand that the European Union pay for its gas exports in Russian rubles could shake up the global economy, undermining the Western sanctions strategy and forcing Europe to decide if it truly wants to be independent from the US. Russia announced on March 23 that going forward it will only accept rubles as payment for natural gas contracts with what it calls "unfriendly countries" - that is to say, nations that have imposed sanctions on Moscow. This is a very important geopolitical development that could have big repercussions for the global economy. Russia supplies nearly 40% of the European Union's natural gas. This is used to heat homes and power the European grid. It is a cheap energy source that keeps costs down for European companies. Less known is that natural gas is also a vital raw material in manufacturing essentials like fertilizers and pharmaceuticals. EU sanctions imposed on Russia over its war in Ukraine have conveniently excluded natural gas for this reason.

Blinken tamps down Biden's Putin comments: US not seeking 'regime change'
Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Sunday insisted that the US is not seeking regime change in Russia, the latest attempt by the administration to clean up President Biden's comments that President Vladimir Putin "cannot remain in power." Blinken said during a visit to Jerusalem: "I think the president, the White House, made the point last night that, quite simply, President Putin cannot be empowered to wage war or engage in aggression against Ukraine or anyone else. As you know, and as you have heard us say repeatedly, we do not have a strategy of regime change in Russia — or anywhere else, for that matter. As in any case, it's up to the people of the country in question. It's up to the Russians."

SOTT FOCUS: The Science of Evil: A Personal Review of Political Ponerology
A new edition of Political Ponerology, by Andrew M. Łobaczewski, edited by Harrison Koehli, is now available on Amazon.1 This strange and provocative book argues that totalitarianism is the result of the extension of psychopathology from a group of psychopaths to the entire body politic, including its political and economic systems. Political Ponerology is essential reading for concerned thinkers and all sufferers of past and present totalitarianism. It is especially crucial today, when totalitarianism has once again emerged, this time in the West, where it is affecting nearly every aspect of life, including especially the life of the mind. When I first encountered Political Ponerology, I had been struggling to understand just how totalitarian leftism had effectively taken over the United States of America. Ever since my encounters with the rabid social justice warriors as a professor at New York University — recounted in my book Springtime for Snowflakes — I began to note, with no...

Armenian PM talks Karabakh escalation with Putin after Azerbaijan violates ceasefire
The Russian Defense Ministry says Azerbaijani armed forces entered a zone policed by Russian peacekeepers in the Nagorno-Karabakh region in violation of a Moscow-brokered cease-fire agreement that ended a six-week war in 2020. The Defense Ministry in Moscow also accused Azerbaijani troops of using Turkish-made drones to strike troops in Nagorno-Karabakh, while the Russian Foreign Ministry expressed "extreme concern" over the spiraling tensions in the region. Russia also said it had called on Azerbaijan to pull out its troops and called on the parties to the conflict to show restraint and ensure compliance with the agreements reached by Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Russia.

West accused of double standards on Ukraine by Qatar and Saudi Arabia
The US' major non-NATO ally Qatar, along with Saudi Arabia, have shamed the West for paying disproportionately more attention to Ukraine than to conflicts in nations across the Middle East. "The humanitarian suffering that we have seen in Ukraine ... has been the suffering of a lot of countries in this region for years, and nothing happened," Qatari Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani said during roundtable talks at the annual Doha Forum on Saturday. He reminded delegates of "the brutality against the Syrian people, or against the Palestinians, or against the Libyans, or against the Iraqis, or against the Afghans," and said that, in his view, "we have never seen a global response to address those sufferings."

Breaking the cycle of hurting others when you have been mistreated
I grew up with difficult and hurtful parents who spoke critically, with the intent to demean. Each word of sarcasm, each thinly veiled joke or put-down undercut my self-esteem.

Fauci wins Oscar for best dramatic performance
LOS ANGELES, CA — In an Oscars first, Dr. Anthony Fauci has won the Oscar for "Best Dramatic Performance," making him the first non-actor to receive such an award. "From the first time we heard him say the word 'droplets,' we hung on his every word," said hilarious Oscars host Amy Schumer. "He captured us with his enthralling, soulful performance, so much so that we blindly did everything he told us to do for two whole years. Never has there been a more influential actor. This year's award for 'Best Dramatic Performance' goes to Anthony Fauci."

Fauci wins Oscar for best dramatic performance
LOS ANGELES, CA — In an Oscars first, Dr. Anthony Fauci has won the Oscar for "Best Dramatic Performance," making him the first non-actor to receive such an award. "From the first time we heard him say the word 'droplets,' we hung on his every word," said hilarious Oscars host Amy Schumer. "He captured us with his enthralling, soulful performance, so much so that we blindly did everything he told us to do for two whole years. Never has there been a more influential actor.

Gilad Atzmon: The Prospect of Peace and its Enemies
The USA, Britain and NATO believe that the war in Ukraine makes Russia weak, reduces Putin into an Amalek figure, makes NATO strong and will lead to an extensive boost to the USA's military industrial complex. Accordingly, Biden, Johnson and NATO want an indefinite continuation of the war. It is time to identify who needs the war to continue as Biden is not alone on that front. Zelensky also wants the war to continue. He knows that any agreement with Russia would make his situation 'very complicated.' Ukrainian nationalists who appear to be bravely fighting the Russian army and are lauded by every Western MSM outlet, won't accept a single territorial concession. It is hard to imagine the war coming to an end without such a concession especially given Russia's clear territorial gains in the south, the east and the north. And Zelensky, the actor, knows that his current theatrical role is, beyond doubt, the peak of his career. From now on it is downhill. For Zelensky, the war ought to...

Springtime for GloboCap
Warm up the Wagnerian orchestra and call in the goose-stepping chorus girls, because ... yes, that's right, it's Springtime for GloboCap! "The Winter of Severe Illness and Death" is over! The big Black Sun is shining again! God's in his heaven, all's right with the world! OK, sure, the vast majority of humanity are suffering from post-traumatic stress, having been terrorized, gaslighted, threatened, bullied, and otherwise systematically mindfucked by their governments, the media, and "health authorities" on a daily basis for the past two years, and we're all exhausted and at each other's throats, and many of our businesses and incomes have been ruined, and inflation is spiraling out of control, and a lot of us are still being gratuitously demonized, segregated from society, banned from traveling, and forced to submit to invasive procedures and wear medically-pointless symbols of ideological conformity on our faces, so we're not quite in the spirit of the season ... but, for...
