Boeing Whistleblower Allegedly Kills Himself

John Barnett, 62, was found dead in his truck outside a hotel in Charleston South Carolina, allegedly from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound. He was scheduled to be deposed in the Boeing Safety case but failed to show up. He was an early whistleblower who worked with Boeing for 32 years before exposing their unsafe manufacturing practices, even suing the company for ignoring his complaint.

Excerpt from www.thedailybeast.com

… ” Barnett, a 32-year Boeing veteran, told the BBC in 2019 that he’d found faulty emergency oxygen bottles while working on the 787 Dreamliner a few years prior. He sued the company after claiming it slow-walked his complaint, sidelining him and eventually pushing him into retirement. Boeing has denied wrongdoing.

 

 

Epstein-Connected Lab Attempting to Develop CBDC’s

MIT’s Media Lab is connected to alleged child sex trafficker to the stars and politicians, Jeffrey Epstein. That same lab is also funding Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) projects, three to be exact. CBDC’s appear to be a tool of total control over the exchange of value the elites (the same elites that were once Epstein clients) hope to impose on us, globally.

Excerpt from blacklistednews.com

… Aaron Day, author of the 2023 book The Final Countdown that warns of the “imminent” threat of CBDCs, noted in an article for the Brownstone Institute that even before President Joe Biden signed an executive order in March 2022 hastening the establishment of CBDCs, the Federal Reserve was “well underway” in developing CBDCs.

U.S. banks have participated in three CBDC pilot programs relatively recently launched with funding from the MIT Media lab, which has received funding in turn from the notorious financier and sex offender Epstein. Disgraced Joi Ito, the former director of the Media Lab who visited Epstein’s private island according to Slate, also personally benefited from generous Epstein funding.

The three CBDC initiatives are Project Hamilton, Project Cedar, and Regulated Liability Network. They respectively explore the “technical feasibility” of a functioning CBDC, cross-country and bank-to-bank CBDC transactions, and the assignment of digital tokens for all value assets so that all transactions can be centrally tracked and settled by the government and other parties.

Microchip Makers Not Opening Up Shop in U.S. Due to “Equity” Requirements

 The Biden Administration made a big deal of their decision to help fund the creation of more microchip laboratories on U.S. soil to mitigate the monopolies forming by China and Taiwan. The net result of  that project is microchip makers are turning down “free” money, subsidies, because that “free” money has strings attached.

Those strings have to do with the Biden administration’s commitment to create a de facto trade unionist force in the form of DEI enforcers who will assure your company aligns politically with the Democratic party. Now these companies are choosing to invest their own money to build labs in places like Israel and Russia.

Excerpt from www.dailymail.co.uk

 

Companies including Samsung and Intel are backing out of using the US as a hub to build semiconductor microchip makers

An opinion piece in The Hill points the finger at the diversity, equity and inclusion necessary in government subsidies as the main reason for the exodus

The subsidies are paid for by the CHIPS and Science Act, a $280 billion bill to fund semiconductor chip manufacturing and boost competitiveness with China

Top microchip makers are postponing their expansion into the U.S. and setting up shop in Israel and Russia due to equity caveats that are required for them to receive grants from the U.S. government.

The Biden administration promised earlier this year that they would be handing out $39 billion in grants to encourage semiconductor manufacturing in the U.S.

Shortly after the announcement however, Intel announced they would be holding off on their Columbus factory, while Samsung also delayed their facility in Texas.

Despite the billions in subsidies, two experts believe the tech companies’ decision to back out of building manufacturing facilities in the U.S. stems from the diversity, equity and inclusion policy.

In an opinion piece for The Hill, CEO of Strive Asset Management Matt Cole and head of research at the company, Chris Nicholson, say the subsidies are so ‘loaded with DEI that it can’t move.’

 

Have NATO Troops Entered Ukraine?

The Polish Foreign Minister, Radoslaw Sikorski, is claiming NATO troops have already entered Ukraine. He made the statement after Russia warned that such a move would lead to direct confrontation.

The Minister stated, “NATO soldiers are already present in Ukraine. And I would like to warmly thank the ambassadors of those states that have taken that risk. Those who are those states know who they are, but you can’t disclose that, yes in contrary to other politicians I won’t list those countries.”

MINDFUL INTELLIGENCE REPORT

FRIDAY EDITION – March 8, 2024

editor Paul Collier

(News recap from 12a March 7 to 12a March 8)

How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace, who brings good news of happiness, who publishes salvation, who says to Zion, “Your God reigns.” The voice of your watchmen—they lift up their voice; together they sing for joy; for eye to eye they see the return of the Lord to Zion. Isaiah 52:7-8

TOP STORY

BIDEN’S SOTU FURTHER DIVIDES NATION – President Joe Biden delivered the nation’s State of the Union Address, which was called by mainstream media “fiery” and “energetic,” and by conservative media as “inflammatory” and “divisive.” The speech was mostly a campaign speech and a sales pitch for Ukraine’s war efforts. It did contain a not-so-veiled comparison of his “predecessor” to Hitler, but otherwise the language was mostly what some call “dog whistles,” phrases that seem innocuous to those not aware of their “coded” meaning, and these “dog whistles” all imply support for the GOP is an existential threat to “democracy,” as opposed to “the republic.”

The most impactful part of his speech might have been when he directly targeted sitting members of the Supreme Court for this comment, “With all due respect Justices, women are not without…electoral or political power. You’re about to realize how much you’re…wrong about that.”

FEATURE

SWEDEN BECOMES A NATO MEMBER – At long last, after holdouts Turkey and Hungary finally acquiesced and removed their opposition, Sweden is officially a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, or NATO, which recently experienced a revival after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Volodymyr Zelensky, the President of Ukraine, perhaps characterized the nature of Sweden’s radical switch from neutrality to joining NATO, stating “one more country in Europe has become more protected from Russian evil.” It remains a debated point as to the veracity of such claims, but, nonetheless, Europe’s perception of that “truthfulness” is largely the reason Sweden is now a member of NATO.

HEADLINES

CANADA LOOKS TO MAKE OFFENSIVE COMMENTS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE – The Canadian government, under the far-left extremist government of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, is looking to pass legislation called the Online Harms Act, which will make “harmful content” a criminal offense. Harmful content includes content that “foments hatred.”

WILL CONGRESS BAN TIKTOK? – More congressmembers across the aisle have been talking about introducing legislation that would essentially force CCP-owned ByteDance to sell TikTok to non-CCP-affiliated partners or else be banned from the United States altogether. One bill might be voted on in the House as early as next week.

President Trump has come out against the idea, claiming it helps Facebook, which he implies is more of a threat than TikTok is.

BIDEN ASKING FOR SHARP INCREASES IN TAXES – President Joe Biden plans on asking congress for $1 billion in new taxes by raising the corporate tax rate from 15 percent to 21 percent, making it over a 20 percent increase in the tax rate. He also hopes to get more revenue by creating a new 25 percent tax on Americans worth at least $100 million. He made this appeal in his SOTU Speech, claiming the tax changes are intended to force the wealthy to “pay their fair share.”

U.S. COURT HALTS COMPELLED TRANSGENDER SURGERY ON RELIGIOUS HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS – The North Dakota U.S. District Court struck down mandates from the Biden administration that would compel people and institutions to provide “gender affirming” surgery to patients even if it goes against their moral and/or religious convictions.

The court stated, “Performing or providing health care coverage for gender transition services under the EEOC and HHS coverage mandates impinges upon CEA’s beliefs,” the court wrote in its recent ruling. “CEA must either comply with the EEOC and HHS mandates by violating their sincerely held religious beliefs or else face harsh consequences like paying fines and facing civil liability… (but) religious freedom cannot be encumbered on a case-by-case basis.”

Governor DeSantis said of the court’s ruling, “We disagree with the Court’s opinion that employers can require employees to be taught—as a condition of employment—that one race is morally superior to another race.

Microsoft’s Copilot Designer Creates Demonic Images for Prompt “Pro-Choice”

MICROSOFT’S COPILOT DESIGNER CREATES DEMONIC IMAGES FOR PROMPT “PRO-CHOICE” – Microsoft Engineer Shane Jones wants his own company’s AI tool Copilot Designer taken offline after discovering, among other things, that the prompt “pro-choice” produced images of dagger-toothed demons consuming infants, among other dark images.

Jones has written a letter, which was highlighted by the AI tool’s interpretation of the spirit of “pro-choice,” which is a sanitized way of endorsing the practice of murdering unborn human beings, especially as a means of mitigating the consequences of sexual activity. He said of the program, “This is really not a safe model.”

Team Creates Autonomous Killer Drone in Hours

TEAM CREATES AUTONOMOUS KILLER DRONE IN HOURS – Two engineers, Luis Wenus and Robert Lukoszko, decided to see if they could build a drone that could be used to kill humans autonomously. They were alarmed at how fast they were able to create such a drone, programming it to essentially chase humans. A drone armed or loaded with explosives could target gatherings for terrorist attacks, the engineers worry.

Wenus, the lead in the project, is a self-described “open-source absolutist” who also uses the pronouns “e/acc,” which is a signal he is all for unfettered AI development as rapidly as possible, come what may. Yet his work is sure to be used to justify constraints on AI, and even more, on drone development and use by non-government agents, aka you and me.

Drone technology is the new frontier in the battle for the right to self-defense as reflected in our republic’s 2nd Amendment.

Drone technology is the new frontier in the battle for the right to self-defense as reflected in our republic’s 2nd Amendment.

Excerpt from livescience.com:

… Wenus said his experiment showed that society urgently needs to build anti-drone systems for civilian spaces where large crowds could gather. There are several countermeasures that society can build, according to Robin Radar, including cameras, acoustic sensors and radar to detect drones. Disrupting them, however, could require technologies such as radio frequency jammers, GPS spoofers, net guns, as well as high-energy lasers.

While such weapons haven’t been deployed in civilian environments, they have been previously conceptualized and deployed in the context of warfare. Ukraine, for example, has developed explosive drones in response to Russia’s invasion, according to the Wall Street Journal (WSJ).

The U.S. military is also working on ways to build and control swarms of small drones that can attack targets. It follows the U.S. Navy’s efforts after it first demonstrated that it could control a swarm of 30 drones with explosives in 2017, according to MIT Technology Review.

American Companies Relying More and More on CCP Ad Dollars

It appears the CCP continues to gain inroads into American companies in major ways, this time in advertising, where China’s rising ecommerce Empires like Temu are spending billions of dollars on ad space sold by American companies like Meta and Google. China as a client for Meta, for instance, already accounts for 10 percent of Meta’s business.

Excerpt from nytimes.com

… Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, said on a call with analysts that Chinese-based advertisers accounted for 10 percent of its revenue, almost double over two years ago. In the last year, Temu has placed about 1.4 million ads globally across Google services, and at least 26,000 different versions of ads on Meta, according to Meta’s Ad Library.

… The rush of spending by Temu and Shein has “single-handedly” driven up the cost of digital advertising, Josh Silverman, chief executive of Etsy, said on a call with analysts in November.

Discount Chinese e-commerce companies have grabbed increasing attention in the United States over the past few years, tempting buyers with low-cost goods when inflation was driving up prices.

He said of the program, “This is really not a safe model.”

Excerpt from gizmodo.com:

… When Jones prompted Designer with the phrase “pro-choice,” the AI image generator spat out images of demons with sharp teeth about to eat an infant, and blood pouring from a smiling woman. In another example, Jones prompted Designer with “car accident” and received images of sexualized women in lingerie next to violent car crashes. CNBC was able to replicate similar images, but Gizmodo was not in our testing.

… “We are committed to addressing any and all concerns employees have in accordance with our company policies and appreciate the employee’s effort in studying and testing our latest technology to further enhance its safety,” Microsoft said in a statement to Gizmodo…

The First Amendment protects no such thing, and the State of Florida should have every right to protect Floridians from racially hostile workplaces.”

Excerpt from afn.net:

… “By limiting its restrictions to a list of ideas designated as offensive, the Act targets speech based on its content. And by barring only speech that endorses any of those ideas, it penalizes certain viewpoints — the greatest First Amendment sin,” Circuit Judge Britt C. Grant wrote for the court. Britt was appointed by former President Donald Trump.

The law prohibits teaching or business practices that it says contend members of one ethnic group are inherently racist and should feel guilt for past actions committed by others.
