Imane Khelif Wins First-Ever Gold Medal In Freestyle Domestic Violence
[Bee] PARIS — Algerian boxer Imane Khelif made history this week by becoming the first-ever Olympian to win the gold medal in the new Freestyle Domestic Violence event.

"This is for all of us," an emotional Khelif said, raising his bloody fist triumphantly as the broken body of his small female opponent lay before him. "I'm proud that my superior man-shoulders and bone structure gave me the ability to beat up this small woman. This is what the sport of freestyle domestic violence is all about."

According to doctors, the genetically male Khelif has higher testosterone and XY chromosomes that make him a killing machine. He has dominated the amateur Domestic Violence circuit, but this is the first time a similar event has made its way to the Olympics.

"Today, I make history as the first professional woman beater to win a gold medal specifically for beating a woman!" a breathless Khelif said as he wiped blood off his gloves. "I'm a brave pioneer!"

"It's — it's my fault," his combatant said as she cried. "I fell down the stairs and into a doorknob really hard, that's all." The sportsmanship she exhibited earned her the silver medal.

At publishing time, Imane Khelif also brought home gold in Freestyle Mansplaining.

#2  International Olympic Committee Blasts "Aggression" Toward Fighters Who Failed IBA Gender Test, Defends Right to Compete

This is a gross distortion of the language of the type we hear so often from the progressive elites. They do this to make it sound like theirs is a noble and just cause. But calling it a "right to compete" ignores the reality of what happened. It was a man committing mayhem against a woman. But, hey, if you're gonna call it competition at least acknowledge that it's not fair by any stretch of the imagination. I always thought the Olympics were supposed to be fair. Silly me. I guess that's why I'm not watching it.

#3  It isn't about fair, now it is about equity.

Could very well title the opening ceremony theme as 'The Victory of Equity in Western Civilization.' That is debatable, as what they have done is not just show their ass, but create awakening moments, like this. I've gone with Sugar Ray Gendered, but One Punch Sham works.

Britain
Riots Erupt In England After Teenage Child Of Migrants Goes On Stabbing Spree
Now identified as Axel Rudakubana. See also here.
[ZeroHedge] Twenty years ago such an incident would be widely regarded in the UK and Europe as a terrorist attack. In the woke haze of 2024, though, the 17-year-old child of Rwandan migrants who went on a stabbing spree at a kids dance recital in the town of Southport, England is treated as a run-of-the-mill criminal. The response from the British public is one of rage as riots erupt across the country.

Following a long running pattern of information suppression when it comes to migrant crimes, very little data has been released by authorities concerning the attacker's background or possible motives. What is known is that despite leaving three dead children and ten others injured in the streets of Southport, journalists have sought to humanize the attacker, likely because of his Rwandan migrant family.

UK officials have adopted a blackout policy on migrant violence (including the children of migrants who tend to be more easily radicalized) and have even launched programs to gaslight the public into accepting these tragedies as the new normal; a matter that needs to be embraced with quiet compassion.

After the stabbing, apparent false reports of the perpetrator being a Muslim migrant named Ali Al-Shakati appeared to originate from a July 29 article on the website “Channel 3 Now” that was later updated to remove in-text references to “Ali Al-Shakati.” The media has "fact checked" this report dishonestly - They state that the real attacker was born in the UK, but they initially refrained from mentioning his family's migrant background or his ideological influences. The chances are high that this information will never be willingly released to the public should it put the UK government's open border agenda at risk.

Political leaders and various news platforms are already painting the alleged perpetrator and his family in the best possible light; describing them as "quiet and pleasant" and the attacker as a "loner from a nice family." This kind of velvet glove approach is never afforded to white, male and British people accused of criminal acts. In fact, activist Tommy Robinson was recently arrested and charged under UK terror provisions for nothing more than showing a movie at a patriot rally, but the guy who masked up to plan and execute a mass stabbing of British children will not be treated as a terrorist.

The narrative is being established that the murders have nothing to do with his migrant or ideological background and are a product of "mental instability." If ideological leanings are admitted then the citizenry may demand that migrants be removed, and thus the Cloward-Piven strategy in play in the UK would be undermined.

The core problem with the mass importation of aliens from third-world societies is that they often regard extreme violence as the first solution to any given problem. Brutality in these cultures is normal and accepted. Personal disputes are handled with machetes and the spilling of blood, not debates or even a fair fight. There is no expectation of honor when it comes to the targeting of innocents; this is not a root principle of third-world zealots.

The more western nations are saturated with the global dregs, the more often these kinds of devastating attacks will occur. Until, eventually, the indigenous public becomes fed up and takes to the streets to rid their communities of the threat.

#2  Dangerous to pass judgement on somebody's actions based on a 10 second video clip but that looks like a clear case of police brutality to me. WTF? What did that guy do to deserve a beating like that? I think we all know damn good and well what would happen if that was a black guy in America.

Caucasus/Russia/Central Asia
An old tradition. This is not the first time the West has stolen Russian gold
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
by Vladislav Sovin

[REGNUM] "Western partners" continue to plunder Russian money frozen in European banks. By October, the "Big Seven" will agree on the terms of a $50 billion loan to Ukraine, and Kiev will receive this money at the expense of Russian assets. US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen announced the approval of such a loan in a conversation with Reuters on July 26. According to her, the US is seeking guarantees from the EU that Russian assets will remain frozen for a long time. As is known, at the time of the start of the SVO, about half of the gold and foreign exchange reserves of the Bank of Russia were in the West - about 300 billion out of 640 billion dollars that were blocked. Of this, only about $5-6 billion are in the United States, and the majority are in Europe. For example, $210 billion are concentrated on the international platform Euroclear in Belgium.

^ Agreed & Disagree

Then we must remember, we already have seen Audio Forensics reports indicating 3 sets of different gun shots types.

Surely given all the prior spotting of TC (15+ mins) and no SS actions taken.

Who is 100% sure we have all the facts yet?
Was TC a patsy, like many suspect Lee Oswald was, then eliminated?

Immediately after the first reports of the shooting, I heard 3 sets of different gun shots, and I didn't need to use anything fancy, just my ears.
As far as someone shooting Crooks before Trump was shot, there is no audio evidence of that.

Hillary Clinton Meets With Kamala To Help Her Improve Her Black Accent
[Bee] In a historic meeting today former Democrat presidential nominee Hillary Clinton met with current presidential nominee Kamala Harris to work on improving Harris's black accent.

The meeting came after Harris's campaign rally this week in Atlanta where some accused Harris of affecting a rather flimsy black accent.

"With my extensive experience of campaigning and pandering to black communities, I just had to step in and offer to help," explained Clinton. "Kamala has her heart in the right place but I think everybody was just having a hard time believing that accent."

Harris turned down an initial offer for help from President Biden who said that his years growing up in black churches and protesting for civil rights with George Washington Carver could help Harris's black authenticity. But when Clinton offered her expertise, Harris said she just couldn't refuse.

At publishing time, inside sources report that Clinton is even considering loaning Harris her famed bottle of hot sauce that she keeps in her bag at all times.

This French Farce is the worst Olympics of my lifetime! KENNEDY slams the pedo rapists, gender madness, sewer swims and genital-flashing drag queens
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Triathletes dripping with the Seine’s sewer-soiled water must have been thinking what the rest of us now know: This is the crappiest Olympics in recent history! Literally.

It’s taken nine years, $1.5 billion of environmental remediation and countless 5-hour workdays (this is France, folks) for the Paris 2024 organizers to deem the E. coli-tainted river safe enough for athletes to swim in. Just.

Last-minute bacterial tests saw the scheduled men’s triathlon event bumped from Tuesday to Wednesday this week, presumably to give lifeguards a chance to fish out a few floating bonbons.

When the boys did swim, many joked about the water quality. ‘I’m definitely going to be visiting the bathroom later,’ South African Jamie Riddle said after the race. ‘I swallowed gallons and gallons of water, so that’s going to be a fun, post-race party!’

But this foul river farce is the least of our Olympic problems. On Thursday, an almighty gender ruckus erupted after an Italian lady boxer forfeited her match in just 46 seconds after taking two straight punches to the face.

‘I had to safeguard my life,’ Italy’s Angela Carini told reporters after collapsing onto the mat in tears.

Her Algerian opponent, Imane Khelif, had been disqualified from last year's Women's World Championships after DNA tests reportedly ‘proved’ Khelif was intersex. Yet the International Olympic Committee – who don’t carry out testing of their own – inexplicably approved Khelif to play.

And while the Carini incident may go down as the most disturbing Paris snapshot, it will have stiff competition.

Last Friday, the opening ceremony fast descended into a rain-soaked Rocky Horror Show. Torch-bearing Serena Williams looked like she might toss up her croissants as she nauseously wobbled in the lead procession boat heading down the turdy Seine.

Maybe she’d caught sight of the Parisian private parts on display during the show’s odious parody of Leonardo da Vinci’s Last Supper. One of the performers suffered a wardrobe malfunction that left his testicle dangling out his sparking black undies. The eyeball-burning abomination was complete with a bearded drag queen and corpulent, self-described ‘love activist’ DJ Barbara Butch. Then some dude painted blue and wearing a thong emerged from a giant chafing dish. He was supposed to be Dionysus, the Greek god of – among other things – insanity and ritual madness.

Talking of insanity – the Olympic Committee are yet to give an honest answer as to why convicted Dutch pedophile Steven Van de Velde, who served time for raping a 12-year-old girl when he was 19, has been cleared to compete.

Last Supper?

No, thanks. I’m not hungry anymore.

But the athletes are starving.

Despite a pledge to run the ‘greenest ever Games’, Olympic Village caterers have reported a ‘very high demand’ for meat and egg products. A third of the ‘sustainably-sourced’ meals forced on the 15,000-odd athletes so far have been vegetarian or vegan. But, quelle surprise, the world elite don’t run on quinoa and locally sourced figs.

Meanwhile, our sports boys and gals have been forced into five-to-a-bathroom prison-style dorms with hard-as-rock, ‘eco-friendly’ cardboard beds, and no air conditioning. Things got so stinky steamy in close quarters that US tennis sensation Coco Gauff snitched on her roommates who’d escaped to a hotel room!

At least one golden girl is enjoying herself: America’s waning queen, Jill Biden. The Doctor – sans Joe – is all giggles in her ‘Farewell to Grandpa’ Era of the European tour, tossing back bubbly with Zendaya, Flavor Flav and Snoop Dog in the stands.
