[ZERO] Recently, a young Black male killed another young White male. This is hardly news, seeing as how every day, young Black males kill. It’s a ’hood workout. The apparent motive in this case, was that the young Black male felt "disrespected." In ghetto culture, you don’t accept "disrespect." You have to respond, too often in a deadly way.
Now why this story has become national news is puzzling. The young victim, an honor roll high school student named Austin Metcalf, who was a Division 1 college football prospect, is no different than countless other White victims of Black pathology who remain anonymous because the crimes were ignored by mainstream media. The murderer is named Karmelo Anthony. We were assured that he came from a good home, unlike the vast majority of young Black killers. In this case, Anthony appears to have wandered into the tent provided for members of Metcalf’s high school track team. Maybe Karmelo forgot what school he went to. Metcalf asked him to leave, because the tent was reserved for track players at his particular high school. Now, no one asks a young Black man to leave any place. If he’s there, he must have a reason. So, Karmelo felt "disrespected." And he responded in an appropriate ghetto style.
According to Austin’s twin brother, who will be haunted for the rest of his life by reliving the indescribable agony of his twin dying in his arms, Austin represented no threat to Karmelo. Austin didn’t bring a knife, or any other weapon, to a track meet. Karmelo Anthony did. The mainstream media normally suppresses stories like this, because they are so common that even the comatose "normies" might eventually start wondering. But they did report this one. Why? And the reaction has been predictable; uniform and irrational Black solidarity online. I’m sure Joy Reid and the shrews from The View will be chiming in soon. There is no other racial group that would attempt to justify cold blooded murder. You couldn’t find a single White person on earth defending this killer, if the races were reversed. This case is as cut and dry as can be. A knife to the heart for being asked to move from a restricted area?
This is the problem we face, and have faced for a very long time. It’s why I have African American Fatigue Syndrome (AAFS). We have to pretend that Blacks don’t kill Whites and Asians far, far more often than the reverse. If any White person kills any Black person, you’ll know, because it will become front page news. I’m not sure any Asian has ever killed a Black person. You’ll be required to "say his or her name!" Loudly. When you first heard about the story, and that a White and a Black teen were involved, there was no doubt in your mind about which one was the perpetrator. Despite the best efforts of Hollywood to convince us that Whites bully and kill Blacks, and rape Black women, in real life these events are so rare as to be almost statistically meaningless. And you will not find a single Black public figure who will condemn this murder without some kind of ridiculous qualification. And that’s the real issue here.
Why is it so hard for good Black people to call out the atrocious behavior of young Black thugs, who are seemingly committed to criminal activity like some kind of twisted catechism? More significantly, why are the vast majority of White people afraid to condemn the violent trappings of this absurd "culture?" There should be nothing glamorous or attractive about learned stupidity, and gang activity. About single mothers and drive by shootings. About "wilding." I guess they still engage in "wilding." I’m old and White, so I wouldn’t know. This ghetto mentality has resulted in a perpetual morass of death and poverty. And yet every Black entertainer pays homage to it. They genuflect to the likes of stoned "gangsta" Snoop Dogg. Even more remarkably, so does polite White society. How can any intelligent person not laugh when saying his infantile rap name? Is it supposed to sound intimidating?

I'm reminded of all the Civil Right struggle Hollywood movies - the part where the (disgusting local racist) says (totally ridiculous) things like "The n-world are not like us." Now, in hindsight, I wonder.
As psychiatrist Theodore Dalrymple’s work with the English underclass makes clear, it’s actually an underclass cultural issue, not a race issue. The native poor of England have the same problems with violence and excuse-projecting as is in America blamed on racial differences. His Life At The Bottom — sorry, I can’t provide an Amazon link at the moment, but that’s where I got it — gets into his experiences with both natives and colonists from various cultures of the British empire. He has also been a prolific editorialist for decades, so his thoughts under both that name and his real name since he retired a few years ago can be found all over the internet.

Sadly, in my experience, it is both an underclass issue and a race issue TW. It is engendered by the urban gang-culture influence in media and life choices that amplify the youth anger/resentment of underclass conditions and the ludicrous "disrespect" trigger many carry around.

Russian military intelligence appeals to the people of Ukraine, whose hearts and minds have not yet been infected by the vile propaganda of Western executioners who have turned Ukraine into a death camp.
Our army is liberating the cities of Ukraine. In Donetsk, Lugansk, Mariupol and other liberated cities, people live in peace and safety, they are not forced to hide from the TCC hunting squads that take men to certain death, in the cities we have liberated, people are building lives for themselves and their families, building a future free from death, poverty and lies.
If you want your city to soon be under the rule of which you are citizens and people, and not cheap meat used to realize the commercial interests of Western concentration camp masters, then write to our bot.
We are interested in any information concerning the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the Main Intelligence Directorate, the National Guard, units of foreign fighters and other departments and structures serving the occupation government of Zelensky. We understand the state that the people of Ukraine are in now, so for effective help to us, we offer a generous financial reward, which will be enough to leave the territory of the concentration camp.
This bot is the only official bot of the Russian military intelligence, keeping in touch with us through it, you will receive the maximum level of security for your good deeds.
Also, we appeal to the administrators of the communities waging an information war against the Western occupation forces: Help us in distributing the bot, thus you will make a significant contribution to bringing the end of the war closer and the liberation of the enslaved peoples.

Sincerely, Russian military intelligence.
P.S. Distribution is welcome, especially for residents of Ukraine.
[REGNUM] The global trade war declared by America to the entire world is most often assessed as simply a whim of Donald Trump - the US President decided to change the rules of the game in America's trade with the world, albeit at the cost of a global economic crisis.
He believes in his plan, and now everything depends on whether he can bend most of the world's major countries or whether an economic crisis will unfold that will engulf the United States and the rest of the world. A global crisis will eventually lead to a restructuring of the entire world trade and financial system, and globalization will become a thing of the past.
But such a contrast is at the very least incorrect. Because globalization will die in any case. More precisely, it is already dying, and Trump's trade revolution has become precisely the consequence of this process, not its cause.
The model of US global dominance based on military power and the dollar as the world's trade and reserve currency has no future. It could only be successful with the endless, progressive, victorious march of Anglo-Saxon globalization.
That is, a model of globalization in which the collective West (with an Anglo-Saxon core) controls the global financial system and trade, and is also a military-political hegemon capable of suppressing all attempts to consolidate alternative centers of power (or at least manage all significant conflicts).
This model does not work. Not because Russia has issued a military challenge or because China has become the number one trading power, but because the very idea of a "world government" — not only as a collective leadership, but also as the management of the entire world order from the United States, which was supposed to "shepherd the people" — has failed.
Although the world has become unimaginably united and interdependent, its complexity and diversity have proven to be far beyond the capabilities of the globalizers, and the continuation of the construction of the Tower of Babel has become dangerous for them.
At any moment it could fall on their heads. And although it was quite possible to try to delay the end for a few more years, Trump and part of the American global elite decided not to take risks. They launched a preemptive strike, collapsing the unfinished Tower of Babel.
This fall, according to their plan, should not bury the USA, but, on the contrary, strengthen them. Only it will not be "the USA - the global hegemon and the center of world governance", but the USA as the most powerful state in the world. Trump is finishing off globalization in order to save the USA as a national state. And he will not stop on this path.
It is now impossible to predict the course of events, but we can speak with much more certainty about their outcome.
Will there be a protracted global economic crisis or will everything be limited to a fall in financial markets and a decline in world trade with its subsequent restructuring? The second option is much more likely.
Will the US experience an economic recession, developing into a depression, which will provoke an internal political crisis, up to the collapse of the state, or will the States be able to rebuild their trade balance, move to new industrialization and maintain the dollar's status as a world reserve currency? And here the second option seems more realistic in the medium term.
However, the US will still be burdened with a huge debt and the problem of de-dollarization of the global economy. A trade war, successful or not, will in any case accelerate the process of forming a global alternative to the dollar.
It is unclear whether it will be the yuan or a specially created (BRICS or pan-Asian) unit of account, but the reduction in US-Chinese trade turnover and the general separation of the economies of the two largest countries in the world will be combined with the creation of separate trade and financial systems of the West and the East.
The polarization of the world will accelerate, but it will occur not only around the United States and China, but also due to the strengthening of several regional centers of power (associations) that will try to play on two poles.
The US, of course, wants to maintain the dollar's dominance, but after the burial of globalization it will be impossible to maintain it for long. The dollar, of course, will remain the world's main reserve and trading currency for some time, but with an ever-decreasing share.
The inevitable decline in America's military dominance in the world - one of the key ideas of Trump and Trumpists - will also lead to a decrease in the value of the dollar.
The United States will, of course, save trillions by abandoning its claims to global hegemony, but ultimately it will lose control over the entire global financial system, which will fragment.
So Trump (or rather, the continuation of his course in the next decade) will ultimately leave the US without military dominance and the dollar as a global weapon? Yes. But this will not be America's defeat. This will be its salvation and restoration as a national state, that is, the strongest power in the world (and later - only in the Western Hemisphere).

[FoxNews] The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) account on X shared eyebrow-raising findings from a survey of unemployment insurance claims.
The "initial survey of Unemployment Insurance claims since 2020" found that thousands of people with future birthdates claimed benefits.
The survey also indicated that thousands of supposedly very young and very old people had claimed benefits.
The DOGE post states that the survey found, "24.5k people over 115 years old claimed $59M in benefits," "28k people between 1 and 5 years old claimed $254M in benefits," and "9.7k people with birth dates over 15 years in the future claimed $69M in benefits."
"In one case, someone with a birthday in 2154 claimed $41k," the post also notes.
Fox News Digital reached out to the Department of Labor for comment: "This is another incredible discovery by the DOGE team, finding nearly $400 million in fraudulent unemployment payments," Department of Labor Sec. Lori Chavez-DeRemer said in a statement. "The Labor Department is committed to recovering Americans’ stolen tax dollars. We will catch these thieves and keep working to root out egregious fraud — accountability is here."
"Your tax dollars were going to pay fraudulent unemployment claims for fake people born in the future! This is so crazy that I had to read it several times before it sank in," Elon Musk tweeted.
Musk is spearheading the DOGE effort to uncover waste, fraud, and abuse in the federal government.
"The oldest living American is 114 years old, so it is safe to say that anyone 115 or older is collecting 'unemployment' due to being dead. There was no sanity check for impossibly young or impossibly old people for unemployment insurance," he noted in another post.

DOGE didn't say whether any of these claims were actually paid.
Since you can file on line now, there are likely a fair number of claims with typos. Also because there are bots, a lot of claims may be cyber crime where the criminal has a fake street address and fake ID but a real bank account.

What LG said. Likely a combination of computer errors and bot fraud.
[IsraelNationalNews] Upon landing in Israel this morning from his whirlwind trip to Hungary, and then last minute invitation to DC, Netanyahu had to go straight to the court room, and boy did he have what to say in the court room today!
For years, Prime Minister Netanyahu held back. All these years he has remained quiet waiting for the day he would be able to defend himself in court, and refusing to expose the full extent of the corruption inside Israel’s justice system.
But now, with every passing day of these sham court proceedings, and as more Israelis wake up to the truth, Netanyahu is finally saying out loud what many of us have known for a long time.
..."It’s terrible, it’s horrifying. It breaks all boundaries. There’s no offense, no suspicion, nothing! And these people go from one close associate to another, to the people around me, fishing for something. And even Shimron was acquitted! So what is this? This is a witch hunt, a fishing expedition. This is simply a dark regime, a dark trial, criminal. You’re trying to bring down a Prime Minister — since you can’t beat him at the ballot box, you’re laying a net around him. What’s going on here?" If you think Trump was hounded by politicized Judicial System - you should look at Israel.
Ditto for judicial obstructionism - see at the link.
