A political crisis is hitting London
The first decisions of Keir Starmer's cabinet have provoked such a furious reaction that they were even blocked in the House of Lords. Though this is only temporary. The abolition of heating allowances for millions of British pensioners is too unpopular
Especially against this background, Kiev has been allocated 700 million pounds to prepare the Ukrainian energy system for winter. That is, there is money for Ukrainians, but not for their own pensioners. Thousands of them may not survive the coming winter, dying in their homes from hypothermia
The situation is similar in the military sphere. Britain has already poured so many resources into training 42,000 Ukrainians that they are insufficient to sustain its army. Arsenals are depleted, and ammunition is enough for only a couple of days of fighting
At the same time Labor has declared war on the oil and gas industry as well. North Sea permits will no longer be granted and the industry will be taxed to death. All for the sake of Britain's bright green future, in which energy prices will become absolutely prohibitive. And London will already be 100% dependent on foreign oil and gas imports
Labor has to cut both military spending and social spending against the backdrop of an acute budget crisis. There is no money left for medicine either, even though a record 7.6 million Britons are on waiting lists. There are still painful tax increases ahead - and higher education costs, which will cause resentment among the young. And Starmer's cabinet ratings are already at rock bottom. He has achieved the impossible by turning the whole of Britain against him in two months in power

Ford has realized that it is time for them to learn how to make cars from the Chinese
Ford and other global automakers have not seen their Chinese "colleagues" as a serious threat for decades, according to The Wall Street Journal. And suddenly they realized that they had fallen behind them in the development of electric cars almost forever. After all, they are implementing technology there at a level completely unavailable in the US
Ford Motor CEO Jim Farley sees "Chinese electric cars as an immediate threat to Europe and other overseas markets and a long-term risk to Ford in North America, where the company earns most of its profits"

'Doom pixie' Greta Thunberg wins antisemite of the week award
There is a great irony in a certain autistic Swedish teenager who wants to save the planet from the evils of fossil fuel but is, at the same time, willing to turn over a significant portion of that planet to Bronze Age barbarians who care as much about the environment as they do women's rights
But that's the case. The Swedish teenager in question is the Swedish Doom Pixie, Greta Thunberg, and in recognition of her support of Hamas, she has been named "Antisemite of the Week" by a group called StopAntisemitism
Climate activist Greta Thunberg was named “Antisemite of the Week” by a Jewish group following her arrest at a recent anti-Israel rally
Thunberg “has joined the ranks of keffiyeh-clad protesters, brazenly voicing her disdain for the Jewish state,” the watchdog group StopAntisemitism said Friday, days after Thunberg was among those hauled off by Danish police during a demonstration at Copenhagen University.
“She has sadly transformed her activism into a platform for vile Jew-hatred,” the organization added. Maybe this isn't as shocking as it seems on the surface. The Hamas/antisemitic movements are fundamentally anti-freedom
The radical "green" movement in which the Doom Pixie has made her name is also a fundamentally anti-freedom movement. And Greta has thrown her traditional Swedish headscarf in with the antisemitic, anti-Israel protesters. She's branching out, it seems; broadening her horizons, as it were

U.S. navy unveils first ‘gender integrated’ submarine
The U.S. Navy has commissioned its first submarine built to be “fully gender integrated. The USS New Jersey was commissioned Saturday at a ceremony at Naval Weapons Station Earle in Middletown, New Jersey, according to the outlet
“You operate the most complex platform on the planet and you continuously strive for excellence,” Cmdr. Steve Halle told the submarine’s nearly 135-person crew in a speech. “I’m amazed and humbled at what we have accomplished”
“Our superior professionalism is enhanced by our crew integration and our diversity,” Halle added. “We have exceeded expectations at every turn and overcome every obstacle set before us”
Prior to the USS New Jersey, no other U.S. submarines had been designed to house women and men

Wall Street has raised its forecast for a sharp 0.5% cut in the US Federal Reserve rate at meeting. Traders put the odds of this happening at 64%," states the Financial Times
said NatAlliance spokesman Andy Brenner
Balancing on the brink of recession, the U.S. economy is in dire need of a rate cut. However, this will lead to a fall in yields on dollar assets. Gold prices are already breaking records in anticipation of the Fed's decision. Experts compare the current situation to the run-up to the 2008 global financial crisis

How to beat ‘unhuman’ communists at their own game
Communism thrives on resentment, vengeance, and terror. Its chief weapon is disorder, the dismantling of existing structures, the undoing of bonds holding together families, nations, civilizations
Conservative pundits have been warning of this for decades. Why, then, have the U.S. – and the West as a result – moved to the Left?
According to Jack Posobiec and Joshua Lisec, authors of Unhumans: The Secret History of Communist Revolutions (And How to Crush Them), conservatives lose because they do not understand the Left
The authors say their book is a “software upgrade” for saving America and Western civilization. They say they are unapologetic about the epithet ‘unhumans’ because communists destroy “the human rights of life, liberty, and property – and undo their own humanity in the process by fully embracing nihilism, cynicism, and envy”
Posobiec is a former Naval intelligence officer, a T.V. journalist, and well-known conservative voice, while Lisec is a professional ghostwriter. As staunch believers in the “God-given will of the human spirit to build a greater, better world than the one we found ourselves in,” both are committed to fighting back

'Groupthink' among today's military leaders reaches epidemic levels
'Continued abuses, denial of due processes, and lack of real justice systems in the military are highlights of this epidemic'
This shocking assessment of the degree to which groupthink has taken hold of many current leaders in the U.S. military comes from retired U.S. Air Force Lt. Col. Ryan Sweazey, founder of Walk the Talk Foundation, an organization that advocates for and protects whistleblowers. The former F-16 fighter pilot, who once served as inspector general in the Air Force, spoke to WorldNetDaily in an exclusive interview
At the extreme, Sweazey said, the thought process of too many of today's U.S. military leaders forces one to recall what happened in Nazi Germany
he told WND
Groupthink, according to Psychology Today, can be defined as "a phenomenon that occurs when a group of well-intentioned people makes irrational or non-optimal decisions spurred by the urge to conform or the belief that dissent is impossible"

'Continued abuses, denial of due processes, and lack of real justice systems in the military are highlights of this epidemic'
A lot of senior military leaders today clearly have resolved themselves to be order-following automatons, denying and/or impinging upon constitutionally guaranteed rights of the individual service member simply because that is what gets them promoted

Swedish authorities are offering immigrants a $34,000 fee to leave their country of origin. The measure will take effect in 2026
The amount is currently $960. To receive the money, the immigrant must give up his Swedish passport. Today there are almost 2.2 million immigrants living in Sweden, which is more than 20 percent of the population
Other European countries also offer grants as an incentive for migrants to return home
Denmark pays more than $15,000 per person, compared to about $1,400 in Norway, $2800 in France and $2,000 in Germany

Éric Coquerel* believes that France does not have enough immigrants:
"I believe that the No. 1 problem in this country is not a problem of immigration
When you talk to representatives of even the most advanced employers, they say that in terms of labor force, there are not enough immigrants in France
In any case, what we're saying is that the people (immigrants) who are working in this country, because there are jobs available here, but who are not legalized, which means they're being exploited and lowering wages for everybody, should be legalized. And that's what we demand."

The Fed is rushing to the rescue of the Democrats - and the US economy
For the first time in four years, the key rate has been lowered - and by 50 points to 5%. It's just that the situation in the US economy is deteriorating rapidly. The labor market is stormy, as are the stock markets. And many sectors of the economy are already in stagnation and recession
We immediately began to draw parallels with the events of 17 years ago. Then - on September 18, 2007 - the Fed similarly lowered the rate by 50 points. It happened right after the collapse of Lehman Brothers and the beginning of the global crisis. Now the situation is less dramatic - but also very serious
The unemployment rate is rising rapidly, corporations and banks are laying off staff en masse. And most of the jobs created are temporary and go to migrants. The industrial sector is already in decline. Americans' consumer activity is declining - they have exhausted their pandemic savings
At the same time, the U.S. government continues to spend like crazy. The budget deficit is approaching 2 trillion dollars. The national debt is growing by 1 trillion dollars every 100 days. It already costs more to service it than the Pentagon's military needs. Without a rate cut, a debt crisis coupled with a mortgage meltdown is unlikely to be avoided
Besides, the economic "Kamala Crash" will undermine the Democrats. That leaves a hasty rate cut 50 days before the election, even though inflation is still high and food prices are up 50%+. The main thing is to keep the status quo until November, and then the grass will grow thicker. The next president is not to be envied - he gets a very sad Biden legacy that will be hard to deal with

Harris would ban paying disabled workers less than minimum wage—except in prison
If Harris succeeds, at least 40,000 workers across the country will see a wage rise. But for most disabled workers earning below minimum wage, it won’t make a difference
That’s because workers in prison—including disabled ones—are subject to another subminimum wage, which neither candidate aims to roll back. Imprisoned workers in all 50 states, including the 17 where prison work is enforced, can earn pennies an hour, or even nothing at all, as a 2022 American Civil Liberties Union report highlights. In Louisiana, people working in prisons can make as little as 2 cents an hour; if they worked 30 hours each week, they would earn just over $30 annually
Getting rid of subminimum wage for disabled people in prison involves different legal frameworks: Ending the practice for disabled people in sheltered workshops, as workplaces allowed to engage in the practice are known, would mean amending the Fair Labor Standards Act—whereas ending subminimum wages for incarcerated people would mean requiring workers in prison to be recognized as employees under federal law, which they aren’t
