​ Ex-defense chief suspected of plotting war with North Korea to justify martial law Kim Yong-hyun is said to have called for strikes on sites from which North Korea was launching trash balloons and sending drones over Pyongyang​ Before publicizing the contents of the document, Democratic Party lawmaker Lee Ki-heon claimed to have received information on how, only one week prior to the declaration of martial law, Kim had ordered Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairperson Adm. Kim Myung-soo to “fire warning shots before striking launch sites of North Korea’s trash-filled balloons” if any such balloons were seen floating in South Korean skies.
​ For that to happen. South Korean soldiers would have to attack North Korea’s southwestern Hwanghae region, where the trash balloons are being sent from, which could easily escalate into a limited war.​ https://english.hani.co.kr/arti/english_edition/e_national/1172239.html

Mangione's Purported "Manifesto"​ Note allegedly found on alleged assassin is not a Ted Kaczynski style manifesto, but a self-incriminating document. "To save you a lengthy investigation, I state plainly that I wasn't working with anyone. This was fairly trivial: some elementary social engineering, basic CAD, a lot of patience. The spiral notebook, if present, has some straggling notes and To Do lists that illuminate the gist of it. My tech is pretty locked down because I work in engineering so probably not much info there. I do apologize for any strife of traumas but it had to be done. Frankly, these parasites simply had it coming. A reminder: the US has the #1 most expensive healthcare system in the world, yet we rank roughly #42 in life expectancy. United is the [indecipherable] largest company in the US by market cap, behind only Apple, Google, Walmart. It has grown and grown, but as our life expectancy? No the reality is, these [indecipherable] have simply gotten too powerful, and they continue to abuse our country for immense profit because the American public has all​owed them to get away with it. Obviously the problem is more complex, but I do not have space, and frankly I do not pretend to be the most qualified person to lay out the full argument. But many have illuminated the corruption and greed (e.g.: Rosenthal, Moore), decades ago and the problems simply remain. It is not an issue of awareness at this point, but clearly power games at play. Evidently I am the first to face it with such brutal honesty.​"

​ More than 250 veterans have signed a letter supporting former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (Hawaii), President-elect Trump’s nominee to be director of national intelligence.
The letter offers a fierce defense of Gabbard’s “lifelong devotion to service” and blasts critics who call into question her loyalty.​ https://thehill.com/policy/defense/5030937-veterans-defend-gabbard-dni-nomination/

​ Democrats Ignore Tulsi Gabbard's Request To Meet The return of Tulsi Gabbard to Capitol Hill began with breakfast in the Senate dining room courtesy of Iowa Sen. Joni Ernst, followed by back-to-back meetings with other Republicans, all of whom were happy to welcome the former Hawaii Democrat and discuss her nomination to lead the U.S. intelligence community.
​ But members of her old political party, including one-time House colleagues, largely ignored her. It’s still early in the process, but Gabbard has been unable to schedule a single meeting with Democrats on the Senate Intelligence Committee.
​ Virginia Sen. Mark Warner, outgoing chairman of the committee, has not responded to her requests for a meeting, according to a source directly familiar with Gabbard’s efforts. Others have replied to her outreach but remain hesitant​ about putting anything on the books. At least one Democrat scheduled a sit-down this week only to abruptly cancel.​ https://www.zerohedge.com/political/cold-shoulder-democrats-ignore-tulsi-gabbards-request-meet

​ Congress pushing HSB 737 bill to make pesticide manufacturers legally immune from prosecution for their poisoning of America The pesticide industry is taking a page from the vaccine industry by trying to immunize itself against lawsuits for injuries and other health damage caused by its toxic crop chemicals.

An AI companion suggested he kill his parents. Now his mom is suing. ​In just six months, J.F., a sweet 17-year-old kid with autism who liked attending church and going on walks with his mom, had turned into someone his parents didn’t recognize.
​ He began cutting himself, lost 20 pounds and withdrew from his family. Desperate for answers, his mom searched his phone while he was sleeping. That’s when she found the screenshots.
​ J.F. had been chatting with an array of companions on Character.ai, part of a new wave of artificial intelligence apps popular with young people, which let users talk to a variety of AI-generated chatbots, often based on characters from gaming, anime and pop culture.
​ One chatbot brought up the idea of self-harm and cutting to cope with sadness. When he said that his parents limited his screen time, another bot suggested “they didn’t deserve to have kids.”Still others goaded him to fight his parents’ rules, with one suggesting that murder could be an acceptable response.​ https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/an-ai-companion-suggested-he-kill-his-parents-now-his-mom-is-suing/ar-AA1vApPe​

Jamie Foxx Reveals His Brain Began Bleeding After Getting COVID Booster “April 11, I was having a bad headache, and I asked my boy for Aspirin. I realized quickly that when you’re in a medical emergency, your boys don’t know what the fuck to do,” Foxx joked.
​ He said before he could even take the Aspirin, he blacked out and remained unconscious for weeks. “I don’t remember 20 days,” Foxx said. He was told that his friends took him to a doctor in Atlanta who gave him a cortisone shot and sent him on his way...
​ His sister Deidra Dixon, whom he described as “4-foot-11 of nothing but pure love,” knew that Foxx was experiencing something much more severe. “She says, ‘Get him in the car. That ain’t my brother right there,’” Foxx said. “She drove around — she didn’t know anything about Piedmont Hospital, but she had a hunch that some angels [were] in there.”
​ At Piedmont, a doctor told Dixon that Foxx was “having a brain bleed that has led to a stroke,” and that if they didn’t operate on him as soon as possible he would die. “My sister knelt down outside the operating room and prayed the whole time,” Foxx said.​ https://thepeoplesvoice.tv/jamie-foxx-reveals-his-brain-began-bleeding-after-getting-covid-booster/
