TAXMAN AI, COLLEGE DEATH, WILLIS LIES, POLAND PARTY GRAFT, AI NEWS SUCKS

TOP STORIES

IRS TO USE AI TO EXPAND PROSECUTION NET AGAINST THE “WEALTHY,” AKA DNC-CCP OPPOSITION – The Internal Revenue Service is deploying AI tools to help it deal with complex tax prosecution cases it could previously not manage with the resources it had. It is allegedly using this expensive toy to target the wealthy but given its capture by DNC-CCP anti-American revolutionaries, one has little doubt it will be used to contrive prosecutable cases to target the enemies of the cultist party this department now represents. GO DEEPER

AMERICANS ARE ABANDONING WOKE COLLEGES, AND IT COULDN’T HAPPEN FAST ENOUGH– American colleges and universities are losing the youth as they continue to see their new student recruitments decline while attitudes towards the universities are also in decline.  What looked like a plandemic problem has now turned into a systemic one that can’t be waved away with the plandemic excuse any longer.

It is a perfect storm of incompetence by our higher education institutions, who seem to have abandoned the higher in education for something much lower, hateful indoctrination intended to create anti-American revolutionaries, not equipping people to get what they want from college, training that will enable them to make a comfortable living for themselves. And they do this for an ever-increasing price that is making the investment not worthwhile given the reality of the job market today. GO DEEPER.

GRAND JURY REPORT REVEALS WILLIS LIED TO JURORS TO GET INDICTMENTS – The Grand Jury report has been released and it reveals numerous issues that expose Fani Willis misrepresented facts to the jury in an effort to get indictments against President Donald Trump and those who supported his claims that the Georgia 2020 Election was a fraud.

One key point is her characterizing of a call Trump made to an election official where she claimed Trump was asking officials to find the votes he needed to win when the transcript shows he was claiming he had evidence the margin of victory was overcome by the amount of fraudulent ballots he claimed were cast. GO DEEPER

POLAND’S RULING PARTY HIT BY MASSIVE SCANDAL JUST BEFORE ELECTION – The Poles go to the polls to vote in a new government or affirm the existing one this October 15. Leading up to that election, reports have been coming out that hundreds of thousands of people have been bribing the government to get temporary work visas. In addition to this, the Polish Senate has found the government has been using spyware targeting members of opposition parties.

NEWS CORP HEAD DOUBTS AI-ASSISTED NEWS WILL BE THAT GREAT – News Corp head Robert Thomson has come out to claim AI content is “maggot-ridden mind mould.”  Even as he says this, he conceded in a shareholder conference call that the company would be using and is using AI to help reduce costs. The company uses AI to create articles about weather and fuel prices.

POLITICS (Mon-Fri)

ERIC ADAMS TO CUT OVERTIME IN EFFORT TO PAY FOR “IMMIGRANTS” – New Yorkers won’t be happy as they pour into the ways Mayor Eric Adams plans on cutting the budget as he announced at the beginning of the month. One key way is to cut overtime for first responders. He also plans on implementing a hiring freeze, but doesn’t, at present, plan on laying anyone off.

He also wrote, “We are also reducing services being provided to asylum seekers and closely monitoring these services to ensure they are being delivered in the cost efficient and cost effective manner possible.”

RFK JR ACCUSES DNC OF IGNORING DEMOCRACY – The party that cries all the time they are saving democracy through tyranny can’t be bothered to even act like they mean it in their own primary process to determine their Presidential nominee. Robert Kennedy Jr. is calling the DNC out for its practices that create special votes for elites to assure the DNC gets the candidate it actually wants, not one that “democracy” might determine.

Kennedy campaign manager Dennis Kucinich said, “Unfortunately, it appears that the DNC has created a class of pledged delegates, called Party Leaders and Elected Officials (PLEOs), who are essentially the same as superdelegates, due to the amount of control the party exercises over elected officials. This puts the DNC, once again, in the position of overturning the will of voters across the United States. It is unclear how overturning the nation’s majority vote could be interpreted as trusting the people,”

MEDICAL TRIAL OFFERS PROMISE FOR MYELOMA PATIENTS – An experimental trial by Dr Martin Kaiser at the Institute for Cancer Research and University of Leeds promises a hope for patients suffering from a rare form of cancer called Myeloma, which attacks the bones, but is difficult to detect.

Dr. Kaiser said of the study, “This trial allowed us to ask the question differently: who are the patients who need more intensive treatment combinations? We found that for myeloma patients with an aggressive form of the cancer, correct diagnosis and access to the right combination of treatments can hugely deepen the responses and extend the time during which the tumor is in remission, often during which patients feel physically and psychologically well. This is incredibly positive news for thousands of patients now and in the future The next step is to take the trial findings forward and engage with healthcare systems to provide access to this treatment for this specific patient group with high unmet needs.”

TOP STORIES

NM GOVERNOR “SUSPENDS” 2^ND AMENDMENT RIGHTS BECAUSE REASONS – Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham just committed an overt act of treason against the American republic, seeking to use state powers to strip Americans of their right to bear arms on the basis that there is an emergency because people were killed in her state by people who used guns to do so. The deranged governor signed an emergency order declaring the suspension of the right to bear arms after an 11-year-old boy was killed outside a minor league baseball stadium by someone using a gun to do so. GO DEEPER

DOJ LOOKS TO CRIMINALIZE DENIAL OF NON-BINARY CULTISM, LOOKS TO CHARGE COLLEGE OFFICIALS FOR CANCELLING “GENDER NEUTRAL” BATHROOMS – According to Chris Rufo, he is being targeted for an investigation by Biden’s corrupt, seditious Department of Justice because DNC-CCP ideologues have filed a complaint after his college, New College, cancelled all DEI programs and “gender neutral” bathroom signage.

The lawfare assault begun by programmed DNC-CCP NPCs asserts that Rufo and the New College Board of Trustees and Administrators “violated civil rights law by removing ‘gender neutral’ signage from bathrooms, defunding the DEI and gender studies programs, and “misgendering” the former DEI director, who uses ‘ze/zir’ pseudo-pronouns.” GO DEEPER

BIDEN ADMIN CANCELS CONGRESS-APPROVED OIL LEASES – At a time when Americans are facing continuing inflation, including high gas prices, the Biden administration has chosen to shut down all the oil and gas drilling leases in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWAY) in Alaska that had already been approved by congress.

Meanwhile, the administration is dwindling our emergency oil reserves to provide oil to China. GO DEEPER

WORKERS STRIKE IN PROTEST OF CERTIFIED NIGERIAN ELECTION – The Nigerian Election that saw the incumbent President Bola Tinubu win re-election was recently certified by a 5-judge Presidential Petition Court, having rejected all challenges to the result.

FTX EXECUTIVE TO GIVE UP $1.5 BILLION PLEADING GUILTY TO FRAUD CHARGES – Ryan Salame, one fo the top leaders of FTX, the DNC-Dark-Money Crypto Machine, Ryan Salame, will be compelled to cough up $1.5 billion in a plea deal with the Federal government, who were charging him, in part, for making questionable political contributions.

During his pleading, he told Judge Lewis Kaplan, “I made political contributions in my name that were funded by transfers from an Alameda subsidiary…(The Transfers were) “categorized as loans…(but it) was understood that they would not be repaid….(The donations) were for the benefit of initiatives introduced by others but supported by Sam Bankman-Fried.”

NY BUSINESSES WANT TO GIVE ILLEGALS JOBS, SAYS NYTIMES – An NY Times article highlights a number of businesses in New York State that are claiming they want to hire illegal aliens, but gosh darn it, that’s illegal. One business owner cited in the group, David Buicko, is quoted in the article as saying “I’d hire probably 20 people tomorrow. It’s crazy that we can’t fill a void, we don’t have population growth, and we’ve got people that we’re just bringing in, sitting around doing nothing.”

The article appears to be content marketing to sell the idea that letting the borders remain open so hundreds of thousands, even millions, of illegal aliens can come in with little to no background checks and that would be good for working Americans. Pressing x to doubt on the notion the audience the NYTimes is targeting is going to buy this sales pitch.
