“Tax Junk-Food To Lengthen Children’s Lives, UK Chief Medical Officer Says
Oh, taxing the Poors, is there anything you can’t do?
Autism: Go to any population in the world: no vaccines, no autism. Yes vaccines, yes autism. Don’t need to know why, and we already have the numbers. No medical interest. No medical curiosity or honesty. If what you’re doing is so great, why is everybody sick near to death?
“• Self-Deportation Comes To Washington Ahead of Trump’s Return (JTN)
We’re already saving billions. Billions? Yes, do the calculation (per Luongo, Ramaswamy): if they leave now, in two years, we save all economic harm they intended to do for the next 20 years. They also get a lower pension and payout. We reduce their healthcare, and also don’t pay their daily salary. You don’t have to multiply by very many to get a billion instantly when there are like 30M government workers, or 10% of the population. Is that higher than the USSR? Probably.
“• Trump Invites World Leaders, Not Their Messengers, to Inauguration (JTN)
Demonstrating he has power, not show. Okay, but then who CONCEDED power? Who stepped aside and is letting him without interfering? There was some subterranean battle won? What was it? Why was it time-concurrent to the assassination?
“Milei attracted headlines last month when he enthusiastically danced to “YMCA” – the unofficial Trump anthem”

“• ABC To Pay Trump $15 Million For Defamation, Issue Apology (ZH)
And nothing on it in the media. And no surprise, The View says, “We never lie ever because we’re ABC and have fact checkers” WHILE they read a new legal retraction on the air about every show now. BothNeitherAiii. Like the drones, no one notices that literally nothing makes sense, every word is the opposite of the last.
When I said “devolution” this wasn’t what I meant. This is like “Dissolution”, where your brain dissolves. Reality no longer exists, you can’t defend yourself when words have no meanings and you can’t construct thoughts.
“Since the escalation of hostilities in February 2022, the US Congress has approved over $174 billion in aid to Kiev. “
But we trust the government and the Pentagon’s accounting. Oh wait: none of them has ever passed an audit. When U- MI started looking into their records, they did a “National Security” of all accounting I think was GAAP? That is, they avow and attest NONE of their records are accurate. They promise on a stack of Bibles, NOT ONE is real and complete. …But it was only $174Bil, honust. Reporter reported it and when have they been wrong?
“Having failed thus far to ignite Nuclear Armageddon, what’s up next for the U.S. military industrial complex?”

“Trump Calls For Ending Daylight Saving Time (JTN)
You know reporters are pinheads with no sense of reality when you hear them talk about it. No: no normal humans I’ve ever met in North America want Daylight savings. 101% of them think it’s dumb. Unless you ask a reporter, who are not humans I guess, they instantly snap to how it “Gives more daylight”, although it murders maybe 1-300 ppl a year. “If only ONE life is saved…” No, also no. I don’t need that light to milk the cows, NOR WOULD IT HAVE MATTERED IN 1850. (I’m not punching the factory clock, Ma) We all have ELECTRIC light now, you might have noticed, and there’s no natural light in any part of our days, ever, anyway, since we go from a boxed-in apartment to a fluorescent cube-farm, go to the mega-store, then back home again to Netflix. You morons. I really, really, really need that light AFTER work, so there’s the off chance I might get something done outside. By setting the clocks they do nothing for the morning, but kill any productivity for the afternoon. Everyone else just hates it and thinks it’s stupid.
…But reporters read a lie on paper once and like a parrot swearing, once they hear the words they can’t stop saying them!!! stupidly. Never, ever, forever and ever. Even if they look like drooling retards bent on annoying, scolding, and berating their own readers. ‘Cause “Authority”. Government said! In 1801! Government would never lie!
This is why it becomes a touchstone for us. Because if you can’t remove the MOST BASIC irritation, for 100 years, there’s literally no way you’re not our direct enemy. They haven’t. When like Pot, 90% of the nation agrees on it. YOU all want it?? That’s EXACTLY why we won’t do it! Democracy! (PS I think there was like $1-2B cost each year in IT but check me on this, it might be bc, for MAXIMUM irritation and cost, they also moved the DATES of change)

“• Macron To Push For Sending EU Troops To Ukraine (RT)
Great plan! What troops? You have no troops, nor will your generals send them. What’s going on here? Macron is a direct paid employee of Rothschilds, S.A. That very real, very visible bank will collapse if Ukraine falls and in fact if FAITH in Ukraine wavers. He is directed to say fake and retarded things to keep up the moronic ILLUSION of faith to other morons and muppets. Sadly, this works great.
“Trump Says No to ‘Foolish’ US Missile Attacks on Russia (Lauria)Big picture, like Macron: HOW do you get these guys to lose and not like, release smallpox like Billy Gatey said he would? They have to think at each moment that they’re winning. They can still win. Just one more hand! Texas Hold’m, double or nothing, best out of fifteen! Like in Ukraine, the top example right now. So missile attacks have to be tolerated as if Russia just stood up, shook them all off like lice, they’d drop a nuke dirty bomb somewhere. Like Camden.
Like the Abrams to Kiev though, it can only happen at times, places, and numbers that LOSE.

Biden Aims to Go Out With a Bellicose Bang
Eve OttenbergHaving failed thus far to ignite Nuclear Armageddon, what’s up next for the U.S. military industrial complex?
I’ll tell you:
New bases in Europe, 47 of them, to be exact, in Scandinavia in coming years.
That’s Joe Biden’s legacy, a blood transfusion to NATO’s moribund carcass by adding Finland and Sweden and thereby ballooning the Empire’s global military footprint, a footprint of over 800 imperial foreign military bases already bankrupting us Welp,
we’re gonna get 47 more, per journalist Patrick Hennigsen, and they’re gonna be near Russia.Once the western military cupboard is bare, it will stay that way for a good while.
In fact, much of our military production depends deeply on supply chains linked to China and, indeed, directly on Chinese manufacturing.
And clouding the American defense picture, on December 1, Beijing’s sanctions on “the export of about 700 dual-use items took effect,” reported Asia Times that day, although what really grabbed headlines two days later was Beijing’s ban on sale of three rare earth minerals – gallium, germanium and antimony – to the U.S.,China’s list of weapons-necessary products now prohibited from sale to the U.S. includes “computers, electronic devices, chemicals, sensors, lasers and aviation navigation systems.
If China uses the list to fight a technology war, the U.S. won’t be able to find alternative products elsewhere.”
So, um, about arming and equipping those 47 military bases in Scandinavia,
I suppose Uncle Sam could always cannibalize dishwashers and washing machines to propel American weapons, the way the Biden team’s supposed geniuses like commerce secretary Gina Raimondo told us the Russians did in Ukraine (ho, ho!).

Cannot be unseen. I lament for them all, but eg Covid, I can’t help because when I tell them it’s the vax not the disease they’re counteracting, they’ll instantly stop listening. I will tell them though. I slip punches well, let them glance off. Hardly ever lose a tooth.
And Lily? Same thing? Yeah, we already did this in the AIDS era: Hey, um, maybe the problem isn’t being gay but SLEEPING WITH EVERYONE all the time. That was when — since Global Warming hadn’t been invented yet — every man woman and child was going to die of AIDS as it tore through the (entirely voluntary) population. All you kids have no hope!!! Do drugs and go die in the way you think best. No, I am not kidding. They did that one because they already wore out the “All gonna die from EPA pollution 10 years before”. Then the Ice Age, definitely all gonna die from the Ice Age, 1974. The experts mapped it all out in “Computer models”. Every expert, every year, until, “Oh that never happened, what are you talking about?”
Anyway, so today where you say “The gay lifestyle is dangerous, don’t do it.” You white trash clutching nazi bigot hater! …No, I meant MEDICALLY. As your DOCTOR. And I care about you so don’t come back here with your body f’d up. And far worse: your heart and mind. We can’t put those under a lens and stitch them up again. Those wounds are far deeper and more dangerous. …But heck, the violence rate of the gay life is bad enough, I don’t need to add, although that may be related to the drug association. Is there any end of the ways to say “Don’t do this, it’s bad for you?” Like go ahead and be gay but for the love of God get married or something.
According to Lily, no. We ALREADY tried saying that, it’s dangerous, we love you and don’t want to see you hurt, and they nodded and did it 10 times anyway. …Or in her case, 100 times.
It’s all your fault, you haters! Help me!!!!!!!! Why won’t you help me!!! Why do you hate me so much???

The battlefield initiative in suddenly-vacated Syria has been taken by Turkey, based on this report by Dima at Military Summary Channel, who seems to mostly get Russian intelligence, but does lots of homework. At 9:40, for about 4 minutes, he lays out that Turkey is claiming Syria as part of Turkey, as it was under the Ottoman Empire, until after WW-1. Turkey is saying that the fight against the Kurdish forces in Syria, who have functioned as an American proxy army, is essentially existential to Turkey, and will be prosecuted to Turkish satisfaction, which will happen to give Turkey control of Syria’s oilfields and best farmland. Turkey is telling Israel to withdraw it’s armed forces from recently taken Syrian territory. turkey has the largest military in the region, not counting Turkish proxy forces like HTS, which is claiming now to rule. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w2wocyrPoFE

HTS head, Al Jolani says that Israeli forces consolidating in Syria have no reason to do so, because their enemies are no longer there, a gentle nudge to get out, though non-confrontational.

Gilbert Doctorow points out a very important peace-initiative: Did Viktor Orban achieve anything during his mission to Mar-al-Lago this past week?
We have all seen video images of Viktor Orban’s visit with Donald Trump on Monday, 9 December, which featured the two leaders smiling broadly and showing thumbs up to photo journalists. We know that during the same visit, Orban met with Elon Musk: and major media showed them in a friendly conversation during which Musk was carrying one of his children on his shoulders. These were all heart-warming images to Trump supporters, awful signs for dyed-in-the-wool Democrats of the prospective collaboration between what they believe to be hard right authoritarian leaders during the Trump years to come. Some reporting also carried mention of Trump’s designated national security adviser Mike Waltz as having been present for the talks.
On Wednesday, 11 December, Reuters and other U.S. media reported briefly that Orban had a one-hour telephone conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin during which he evidently recounted what he learned in Mar-al-Lago and sought Putin’s agreement for a Christmas Day cease-fire and large-scale exchange of prisoners to be arranged with Kiev. We may assume that Putin gave his consent, but subsequently Vladimir Zelensky rejected Orban’s initiatives on both matters and roundly attacked the Hungarian Prime Minister for speaking to Putin at all. Some of our media did quote Orban as saying that this week was the most critical in the entire Ukraine war, meaning that the fate of the world was hanging in the balance.
On this same Wednesday, we learned that Kiev had used six ATACMS missiles in a strike against the military airfield in Taganrog, a Russian port city on the Sea of Azov.
The week closed with Russia’s massive missile and drone attack Friday, 13 December, on Ukraine’s already shattered electricity generating infrastructure, which even compelled Kiev to shut down the nuclear plants which till now had been the mainstay of residual electricity supply to the country. One half of Ukraine was now said to be totally without electricity. Nearly 100 Russian hypersonic short range ballistic missiles and cruise missiles together with a still greater number of killer drones were deployed in what Moscow called a successful mission in retaliation for Kiev’s ATACMS strike on Taganrog...
..Orban’s mission to Mar-al-Lago and his subsequent debriefing for Putin had a strong influence on the way that the Kremlin chose to retaliate for the attack on Taganrog. Clearly, as I have said in my interviews this past week, there were options on the table that were sharply escalatory…
..It is clear to me that Orban was able to provide Putin with persuasive evidence from his talks with Trump, Musk and Waltz that it would be far better to show restraint, not to take the bait from the Biden administration to escalate and thereby not upset Trump’s likely plans to stop funding the war upon taking office. Accordingly, the Russians only ravaged what remains of Ukraine’s power supply and did not touch NATO assets inside or outside Ukraine.
For this, as I say, we all owe a great debt of gratitude to the Hungarian prime minister. https://gilbertdoctorow.com/2024/12/15/did-viktor-orban-achieve-anything-during-his-mission-to-mar-al-lago-this-past-week/Simplicius: Pieces Begin Slowly Falling into Place in ‘New Syria
‘On one hand, many statements and videos testify to the HTS-controlled Syria becoming a kind of proxy of Israel, while a deluge of new evidence shows Turkey slowly fortifying its position as future hegemon of the region…
..As soon as Damascus fell, the director of the MIT—Turkey’s CIA equivalent—Ibrahim Kalin was spotted visiting Jolani, touring Damascus, as well as paying homage to the ancient Umayyad mosque.
Several videos showed Jolani acting as personal chauffeur to Kalin, driving him around Damascus with an armed escort. Photo of Jolani behind the wheel… Video with Kalin seen in the passenger seat as onlookers are shocked Jolani is chauffeuring him…
..Think about that: Jolani as personal driver to the head of Turkey’s top intelligence agency—that’s not to mention that Kalin was senior personal advisor to Erdogan and is member of his AK Party.
So, Erdogan’s personal henchman is already shadowing Jolani, whispering in his ear—what can that mean? And what does that say about rumors that HTS had long ago cut ties with Turkey, with the same going for SNA/FSA/TFSA? https://simplicius76.substack.com/p/pieces-begin-slowly-falling-into 12/13/2024 and already looking outdated, the multifaceted view from Inside Turkey: Erdoğan’s Syria?
Turkish pro-government circles are euphoric – not only because an Islamist-led coalition toppled the dictator they detested, but also because they believe that their president orchestrated the whole operation...
..Islamist newspapers have hailed Erdoğan as the commander of the ‘Syrian Revolution’, ‘the Conqueror of Syria’ and ‘the greatest revolutionary of the 21st century’. While some on the Turkish right had begun to doubt the government’s Syria policy, holding it responsible for the refugee crisis, now the Erdoğanists seem vindicated. With Assad toppled, they are expecting both a domestic reconsolidation of power around the ruling AKP and a massive increase in Turkish influence across the region – with many announcing the effective end of Western control…
..Turkey controls several armed factions in northern Syria, which are organized under the coalition known as the Syrian National Army (SNA, formerly the Free Syrian Army). Turkey’s hope is that the SNA will wipe out the American-backed Syrian Democratic Forces and subordinate the Syrian Kurds to an Islamic government in Damascus…
..All this poses the question of what HTS really represents. With roots in the Islamic State and Jabhat al-Nusra, and a place on Washington’s official list of terrorist groups, it seems an unlikely darling of the West. Yet the US and EU have made relatively optimistic noises about its seizure of Damascus, which has further unravelled the ‘Axis of Resistance’, weakening Iran’s regional role. In Turkey, opinion about the group is divided. The opposition is adamant that HTS is a creation of the US and Israel, while Erdoğanists insist that Turkey has armed and trained them over the last several years. Another rumor is that HTS was trained by British intelligence. Some experts claim that the assault on Damascus couldn’t have been successful without the involvement of Western intelligence agencies; others argue that those agencies were tricked or outflanked by HTS…
..Whoever the exact sponsors of HTS might be, the group is clearly an expression of a long-term trend: the mainstreaming and partial taming of jihadi organizations, their infiltration or capture of institutions, and their popularization. These three dynamics sometimes undermine each other, but the latest twist in the Syrian drama has seen them combine in the form of HTS...
..The Turkish opposition, including the left, insists that this is an American-friendly Islamism. Yet the fluctuations of Erdoğanism itself over the years show that there are risks for the West when it plays with fire in this way…
..The main danger for Turkish imperialism would be the growing formalization of Kurdish power. Any stable peace will have to involve autonomy or independence for the Syrian Kurds, now officially recognized by Western states. For the Kurds themselves, the consequences of this formalization would be ambiguous. They would no longer be the heroes of the global left, but they would also break free from their isolation and become a ‘normal’ part of the decaying international state-system. Turkish Kurds would meanwhile be left to their fate, while also being emboldened by the process of normalization to their south…
..Now, the potential for investment – to rebuild from the ruins – has whet the appetite of entrepreneurs across the world. Back in 2018, when Turkey lost 56 soldiers in a military operation, one of Erdoğan’s chief advisors famously remarked that ‘We are giving martyrs, but Turkish contractors will get a bigger share of the pie.’ The markets seem to agree, with the stocks of construction-related businesses rising sharply over the last few days.
It is not clear whether this kind of infrastructural investment can really take off, however, given the uncertain trajectory of the military conflicts, especially in the north and south of the country. The US and its allies have been able to destroy many of their regional enemies, but they have not been able to build functional, long-lasting arrangements of their own. https://newleftreview.org/sidecar/posts/erdogans-syria?pc=1647We Are Not Looking For A Fight With Israel: HTS Leader Jolani https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/we-are-not-looking-fight-israel-hts-leader-jolani
Today’s actions from Turkey may have overtaken the analysis of Alex Krainer, The big picture: Syria and Ukraine are two parts of the same war
Time will tell, but here are a few dots that might make coherent sense if connected. First off, the conflict in Syria is part of the same conflict that’s also being fought in Ukraine. On 29 November in Astana (two days after HTS launched their incursion into Syria), Vladimir Putin said the following with regards to war/peace in Ukraine:
“Let me underscore the key point – the essence of our proposal is not a temporary truce or ceasefire, as the West might prefer, to allow the Kiev regime to recover, rearm, and prepare for a new offensive. I repeat: we are not discussing freezing the conflict, but its definitive resolution.”
And what is Putin’s definitive resolution? It’s nothing less than the creation of a new security architecture between the “heartland and the rimland” to use Halford Mackinder’s terminology. In other words, Putin is determined to end British geopolitics once and for all...
..Today’s wars are driven by the Western imperial oligarchy as they struggle to maintain their dominance and to impose their “rules-based” global order. The central element of their agenda is an overarching imperative to preserve their hegemony over the Eurasian landmass. This long-held obsession draws roots from the British Empire. It was explicitly articulated at the turn of the last century by the British scholar and statesman Sir Halford Mackinder…
..Mackinder hypothesized that the long-term viability of states therefore critically depended on their space and location and concluded that optimum conditions of space and location were only to be found in the inner regions of Eurasia which he named the Pivot Area: a large expanse roughly encompassing Russia, the Caucasus region, Kazakhstan, Iran, and Afghanistan.
In Mackinder’s framework, the Pivot Area is surrounded by the Inner or Marginal Crescent which includes Europe, Northern Africa, Asia Minor, the Arabian Peninsula, India, China and Japan, while the lands of the Outer, or Insular Crescent included the rest of the world. For Mackinder and the British imperial cabal, the Pivot Area was strategic because it was capable of emerging as an independently viable economic power that could spawn a powerful rival empire…
..Russia was seen as the most likely nation to emerge as the pivot land power... British Empire considered this to be an existential threat which had to be neutralized and destroyed... In plain English, Mackinder suggested surrounding the Pivot Area with a crescent of crisis flashpoints and inducing nations like France, Italy, Egypt, India and Korea to bait the pivot power (Russia) into an unending series of exhausting, crippling quagmires. His suggestions were taken entirely seriously and have defined the foreign policy of the Western empire ever since...
..Today, Ukraine and Syria (and Israel) make part of the rimland, or the “arch of crises” which the empire arranged from the Mediterranean to the Koreas in order to keep Russia and its allied powers constantly at war. Weakening these pivot power and preventing the emergence of a rival empire on Eurasian continent is an absolute imperative for the Western oligarchy. https://alexkrainer.substack.com/p/syria-will-it-prove-to-be-the-empiresHe has a left hand.

Debilitating Syria’s defenses, but leaving the tanks unharmed for Ukraine?
The Israeli Occupation Force (IOF) has further widened its aggression against the Arab country, attacking approximately 61 targets in the past 24 hours.
The regime’s military stated on Sunday that its attacks over the past few days have “inflicted significant damage on Syria’s air defense systems,” as “more than 90% of the strategic surface-to-air missiles were destroyed.”
It also pointed out that “hundreds of aircraft carried out powerful strikes targeting the most strategic weapons in Syria over the past few days.”
According to the IOF, the targets included “fighter jets, combat helicopters, Scud missiles, drones, cruise missiles, coastal defense missiles, surface-to-air missiles, surface-to-surface missiles, as well as radars, rocket launchers, and other weaponry.”

Heh, very apt. Anecdote. Ppl in the Int’l community (UN Agencies mainly, but others also, Big Corps..) since 15 years, or 10, or longer, 20, etc. have avoided / refused posts to the US, particularly to the UN in NY.
Sure the money is ‘top’, influence and position in a group is still there somewhat, and some still want to cash in, hoping to save, gather status, then leave, etc.
Reasons. NY. First, those with children can’t ‘afford’ it or ‘hate’ it. One needs a Nanny – live in – and Private School – ferrying back and forth – by private car by parent or with hired driver / secure cab / etc. Wearisome, a drag, incredibly expensive, and locks the kiddos up in a routine that is horrible, makes them unhappy, jittery, anxious.
Second, all from other continents who go to the US gain weight. We are talking top 15 percent or so ‘economically’ who have all amenities, can buy whatever food they want, go to gym, play tennis, take ski vacations, etc. The women are particularly strident, mostly spouses, it just can’t be…they want out…

They say nothing about assuming the expense of providing wholesome food to poor people. .Exactly. When one of my sons was struggling greatly with ADHD in school, the school fed him breakfast 5-days per week. I knew that his behavior was more difficult to manage when he had consumed copious amounts of sugar, and I was suspicious of artificial colors. So I looked into the breakfasts being served and was aghast: they were “sugar cereals” and whole-grain donuts washed down with milk (chocolate, if the kids desired,) and as much orange and apple juice as the kids wanted. The food had artificial colors and flavors. The kicker was this: the Arizona legislature had passed a law mandating that the school lunch food be whole-grain and “low fat” — as a result, it was nearly impossible to include any significant amount of eggs, sausage, or bacon in the school breakfast. Sugar was “in!” Highly processed foods were “in!”What could I do? The school received federal funding to feed all of the kids breakfast and lunch due to the percentage of kids served from low-income families — like my family. I didn’t have the money to send alternative foods with my kids for breakfast and lunch — and even if I had done so, the default foods would still have been freely available to my son who would have continued to eat them. So, I simply resolved to use the food stamp money that I had to purchase and prepare high-quality meals at home.
