According to sources, the US is poised to offer Saudi Arabia an arms package worth well over $100 billion. Trumpf is to make the official announcement during his visit to Riyadh in May. In his first term, Trumpf celebrated weapons sales to Saudi Arabia as good for US jobs (meaning the salaries and bonuses of the CEOs heading the military-industrial complex). Here is the quid pro quo: The US bombs the Houthis for Muhammad bin Salman and Benjamin Netanyahu, Trumpf returns with good news about the mammon-sized defense contract. Footnote: In Feb 2024, France President Emmanuel Macron pushed MBS to purchase Rafale stealth fighters and other weapons. read more


The head of IAEA said that North Korea's nuclear weapons program has grown "exponentially," and urged talks between Washington and Pyongyang. "You cannot have a country like this which is completely off the charts' with its nuclear arsenal," said Rafael Grossi, Director-General of the IAEA. Pyongyang has anywhere from 30 to 50 nuclear warheads and enough fissile material for 70 to 90 nuclear weapons. On 10 Jan 2023, North Korea joined Israel outside the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) by its withdrawal, while Iran remains a signatory. The morbidly obese Kim Jong-un is nefariously building his WMD program with help from Vladimir Putin while the North Korean people starve or get killed fighting for Russia. read more

"A week after Democratic National Committee vice chair David Hogg unveiled a controversial plan to back primary challenges to longtime party incumbents, anger at the activist-turned-Democratic leader is only intensifying among party officials. These Democratic critics say their fury at Hogg has grown amid what they see as his ill-conceived and insufficient efforts to make amends for his planned primary campaign " a campaign that, they say, threatens the DNC's neutrality and its capacity to fight back against Dotard Trumpf." Young David Hogg represents a genuine threat to the well-entrenched and calcified Democrats who let the NRA, Wall Street, AIPAC, the military-industrial complex, and health insurance companies dictate congressional legislation for decades.

Congressional Republicans in both chambers passed a resolution to cut at least $880 billion from the budget through 2034. Because Medicaid accounts for approximately 93% of non-Medicare funding, the program is expected to absorb the overwhelming share of these reductions. The cuts to Medicaid would result in widespread coverage losses, which could lead to 15,400 deaths due to work reporting requirements or roughly 34,200 deaths from reduced federal funding each year. With the GOP, the greedy American oligarchs below are aiding and abetting in what Friedrich Engels called "social murder." read more

#6: youtu.be (and coincidentally another tattoo reference today)

#15: Good stuff, Yav, thanks for the link. All a man has is his good name and Bendler's is now mud. If he was Senior Intelligence Service, Bendler may have jeopardized his robust pension: legalclarity.org

Bendler will be 75 years old when he is released from the BOP and will have few to zero friends. I wonder if he thinks his clumsy espionage was worth it.
