Research by UK gov't finds air pollution a likely cause of dementia in elderly people
Air pollution is a likely cause of dementia and overall cognitive decline in elderly people, major new research carried out on behalf of the UK government and released on Monday suggests. The Committee on the Medical Effects of Air Pollutants (COMEAP) came to its conclusion after examining almost 70 studies in human populations, which were looking for links between air pollution and diminished mental abilities. "It is likely that air pollution can contribute to a decline in mental ability and dementia in older people," the report says. Researchers believe that the most likely way this happens is through blood circulation. "It is known that air pollutants, particularly small particles, can affect the heart and blood vessels, including to the brain," the study reads.

Prominent lawyer argues Steve Bannon's guilty verdict could be overturned
Former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon's guilty verdict could be overturned, one prominent lawyer argued. In an interview with Newsmax host Greta Van Susteren, former Harvard Law professor Alan Dershowitz spoke about a jury in Washington, D.C., convicting Bannon on two charges of contempt of Congress for ignoring a subpoena. Dershowitz called the conviction "entirely in violation of the Constitution" and predicted that a higher court will "very likely" overturn it. After Van Susteren said the D.C. district where the trial was held is "94 percent Democrat," Dershowitz chimed in, "Well, not only that, but probably 97 percent Trump haters." "And all you had to do was say, 'Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, this man Bannon worked for Trump.' That's the end of the case. Entirely predictable and entirely in violation of the Constitution. The only provision of the Constitution which appears basically twice is trial by jury, in front of a fair jury. Number one he didn't have a...

Ugandan president comments on relations with Russia
Uganda is seeking closer cooperation with Russia and refuses to fight "other people's enemies," the country's leader, Yoweri Museveni, said during a joint press conference with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in the city of Entebbe on Tuesday. The Ugandan president said: "We want to trade with Russia and we want to trade with all the countries of the world. We don't believe in being enemies of somebody's enemy. We want to make our own enemies, not fight other people's enemies. This is our doctrine," The African leader noted that Russia, and the Soviet Union before it, have supported Uganda and the African anti-colonial movement for over 100 years and have never caused the country any harm. Noting Uganda's rich natural resources, Museveni said he hoped his country could further increase cooperation with Russia in areas such as space science, nuclear energy, medicine, and food. He also insisted that he didn't understand the calls for Africa to "automatically" take an...

Hunter Biden evidence wrongly labeled disinformation by FBI: Whistleblower
The FBI's investigation into Hunter Biden wrongly labeled verified evidence as "disinformation," agency whistleblowers claimed. Agents investigating President Joe Biden's son "opened an assessment which was used by an FBI headquarters team to improperly discredit negative Hunter Biden information as disinformation and caused investigative activity to cease," according to Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA). Grassley revealed the claim after his office received "a significant number of protected communications from highly credible whistleblowers" about the investigation. The Republican claimed one of the communications shows "verified and verifiable derogatory information on Hunter Biden was falsely labeled as disinformation." FBI supervisory intelligence agent Brian Auten opened in August 2020 the assessment that was later used by the agency, according to the disclosures.

Trump-appointed judge orders Biden admin to hand over communications with Big Tech
A federal judge has ordered the Biden administration to hand over communication documents between the federal government and big tech companies. U.S. District Court Judge Terry Doughty, of the Western District of Louisiana, granted the order of discovery sought by Republican Attorneys General Eric Schmitt of Missouri and Jeff Landry of Louisiana. President Joe Biden, members of his administration, and select social media companies must turn over documents and answer questions within the next 30 days during a discovery phase of a lawsuit alleging collusion to suppress freedom of speech, a court ruled. The attorneys general of Louisiana and Missouri filed a lawsuit in May alleging Biden and eight high-ranking members of his administration and the government colluded with and/or coerced social media companies Meta, Twitter, and YouTube to suppress "disfavored speakers, viewpoints, and content on social medial platforms." On Tuesday, Terry Doughty, a judge in the U.S. District Court...

Russia issues rebuke to Israel
Moscow considers Israel's anti-Russian stance on the Ukrainian conflict regrettable, according to Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova. During a TV talk show appearance on Tuesday, she noted that West Jerusalem's recent rhetoric was "absolutely unconstructive" and "unobjective." Relations between Russia and Israel have soured since the launch of Moscow's military operation in Ukraine, and Zakharova drew attention to the fact that this "did not happen by itself." "In recent months we have heard absolutely unconstructive and, most importantly, biased rhetoric from Tel Aviv," Zakharova stated. She noted that anti-Russian assessments coming from various levels of authority in Israel raised serious questions in Moscow, especially since they were being framed in an exclusively pro-Ukrainian manner. "And this was not in terms of supporting the Ukrainian people, but only in support of the Kiev regime," the diplomat noted, adding that the rhetoric was "absolutely in tune with the...

Biden administration to offer ID cards to illegals, eventually enable them to fly in US, report says
The Biden administration intends to offer some illegal immigrants a temporary ID card that could eventually be used for travel on domestic airlines. The program, titled the "ICE Secure Docket Card program," is funded with $10 million for the program in the Biden administration's fiscal year 2023 appropriations bill, which states, "$10,000,000 for the ICE Secure Docket Card program to allow noncitizens access to immigration files and documents." The card will ostensibly be offered to illegal immigrants waiting the final decision on their status, two government sources told Axios, which added that the Biden administration wants Congressional approval before October to forestall a possible blockage of the program if Republicans take back the House in November.

'America first must mean safety first': Trump burnishes crime credentials in DC return
Former President Donald Trump marked his return to Washington, D.C., with a surprisingly disciplined policy speech, portraying in graphic terms the crime spike being experienced under President Joe Biden. Trump said Tuesday at the America First Agenda Summit: "America first must mean safety first. There is no respect for the law, and there certainly is no order. It has to stop and it has to stop now." His policy pitches included sending the National Guard to problem communities and resettling homeless people on city outskirts where they would have access to government resources. "There should be a squad car on every corner if that's what it takes to stop the killing. You execute a drug dealer and you save 500 lives." More broadly, Trump described the United States as a "beggar country," "literally brought to its knees" by economic and social attacks "on civilization itself."

40,000 UK transport workers strike over pay, job security & working conditions
The railways will again grind to a halt on Wednesday as workers strike over pay, job security and working conditions. The latest talks to avert the action failed last week, a month since three days of industrial action in June. The strikes involve more than 40,000 workers at Network Rail, 14 train companies, and members of the Rail, Maritime and Transport union (RMT). Transport for London services will be affected by the disruption as it uses sections of track that comes under Network Rail's jurisdiction. There will also be a stoppage by members of the Transport Salaried Staffs' Association (TSSA), who work for the Avanti West Coast firm. "Network Rail have not made any improvement on their previous pay offer and the train companies have not offered us anything new," said the RMT general secretary, Mick Lynch. "The government need to stop their interference in this dispute so the rail employers can come to a negotiated settlement with us."

Mysterious hepatitis outbreak in children linked to adeno-associated virus, adenovirus is used as a vector in a number of Covid vaccines
Covid itself is not to blame for the mysterious hepatitis outbreak affecting children across the world, researchers insisted today. Comment: Who thought Covid was to blame? Covid has been around for well over 2 years now (it has been discovered to have begun circulating since late 2019) and these hepatitis cases only began at the beginning of this year. However, pandemic-era lockdowns may have played a role. Comment: Indeed, they played a role, but these cases have been identified in particular regions of the world, but not in others, meaning that it's likely there's another, more significant aggravating factor. Scientists today pinpointed a usually-harmless virus as being the main culprit for the unusual liver illness, which has sickened 200 youngsters in the UK and left a dozen needing transplants. Comment: And that's just in the UK. Two separate studies concluded that adeno-associated virus 2 (AAV2) seems to play a 'significant role'.

Hezbollah threatens to strike Israeli gas production facilities amidst border dispute over reserves
A dispute between Lebanon and Israel over offshore drilling rights has devolved into threats against Israeli natural gas facilities leveled by the leader of Lebanese political and militant group Hezbollah. "All fields are under threat...no Israeli target at sea or on land is out of the reach of the resistance's precision missiles," said Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah in a Tuesday night interview. While Israel and Lebanon have no diplomatic relations -- and are officially at war ever since Israel's 1948 inception -- the U.S. government has been brokering indirect talks over the maritime border dispute for nearly two years. At stake: A share of many billion dollars in revenue from a potentially gas-rich area in the Eastern Mediterranean off the coasts of the two countries.

SOTT FOCUS: Objective:Health - Is No-Virus Theory a Psy-Op?
Once in awhile, conspiracy theorists tend to go off the rails and start going down labyrinthine rabbit holes that lead nowhere. The no-virus theory seems to be the latest of these, especially as it relates to Covid. We did a show on this back in March of 2021 and, despite our thinking it was a flash in the pan, it seems to be popping up a lot lately. Many people in the alternative realm seem to be more receptive than ever and are more than happy to smear those who refute it (including Dr. Robert Malone). As with many off-the-rails conspiracy theories, one can easily get caught up in the minutiae. But what is lacking in the no-virus theory is a coherent explanation for what we all see daily and has been studied extensively in complex field of study. Do virologists get everything right? Of course not, and you'd be unlikely to find one who said otherwise. But does that mean an entire field of science is bunk? Should we throw away hundreds of years of research in order to refute the...
