Harvard Students Melt Down After Thought Crime Expert Let Go

HARVARD PUBLICATION BEMOANS REMOVAL OF ANTI-AMERICAN MISINORMATIO AGENT FROM SCHOOL – The Harvard Crimson, run by anti-American students raised by Marxist teachers and professors to hate liberty and love central-controlled thought police, had a meltdown after the Harvard Kennedy School announced plans to end their relationship with “misinformation expert” Joan M. Donavan, who has made hundreds of thousands a year pushing anti-American agendas like pushing for thought police to protect Americans against bad thoughts and misinformation by censoring everyone, with the aid of central committees that would determine what thought is allowed and which thought is too dangerous.

The acolytes of the anti-American agit prop specialist believe dangerous thoughts are more dangerous than dangerous police states, preferring to have their ideas pre-digested for them and fed to them by the properly recognized “authorities,” all of which hold to the unfounded, unscientific, and illogical notion that only the social is real, and the individual is expendable if they don’t perfectly mirror the social that experts deem the orthodox version of the social.

Standford’s DEI Officer Incited Violence Against American Judge in Assault on Free Speech

DEI OFFICER AT STANFORD JOINS STUDENTS IN CHILLING FREE SPEECH OF JUDGE – Anti-American students at Stanford University yelled racial epithets and other derogatory comments at Fifth Circuit Judge Kyle Duncan for having American values and beliefs while on their anti-American, anti-human campus.

The violence, the intimidation against an American citizen because of his beliefs alone was incited and joined in by the DEI (diversity, equity, inclusion) officer, who made it clear that DEI Officers are de facto DNC police state party enforcers, collecting hundreds of thousands of  dollars a year to enforce the DNC’s woketarian code on students.

After the Dean of Stanford’s Law School apologized, the Marxist-trained anti-American students demonstrated their lack of understanding of the first amendment, the right to free speech, by equating their violent intimidation of a speaker with “free speech,” to the cheer of the DEI officer, the Democrat Party’s de facto thought police enforcer, Tirien Steinbach, who never met an American she didn’t want to silence.

Biden’s Banking Blowup and the Bailout Fix That Might Make it Worse – A Report

BANK FAILS SHAKE UP THE BIDEN ECONOMY – The second largest banking failure in U.S history occurred on March 10, 2023 when the favored bank of Tech start up venture capitalists went bankrupt.  Silicon Valley Bank went bankrupt after a bank run precipitated by the selling off of bank stocks by the leadership of the bank, along with news that it had lost billions of dollars selling now nearly-worthless 10-year treasury bonds it had invested the bulk of its deposits in.

This led to a bank run, which began on Wednesday prior, culminating in long lines outside the physical location of the bank by depositors wanting to get  their money out a sinking ship.  This failure was followed by the third largest banking failure in U.S. history, the closing of Signature Bank, a bank that had once banned the account of former President Donald J. Trump. The question is whether the bank fails have stopped or only getting started.

BIDEN CREATES NEW LAW DECLARING DEPOSITORS TO BE PROTECTED IN RECENT BANK FAILS – President Joe Biden recently revealed in a statement to the nation that offered no press opportunities for questioning that his administration would protect the deposits of everyone entangled in the recent bank failures of Signature and Silicon Valley Banks. Defying rule of law, he declared that depositors with even more than $250,000 deposited (the legal Federal limit on bank deposit protections) will get all of their money back. While he pledged this would not be a bailout that would reward the leaders of the banks that failed, he made no mention of how the government could get back the millions in bonuses and stock sell-offs the leaders of these banks have already made.  He also pledges somehow U.S. Taxpayers won’t be on the hook for this bailout that is not a bailout.

BIDEN’S BANKING BLOWUP BAILOUT CULTIVATING UNSECURED BANKING PRACTICES – After President Joe Biden announced plans for the federal government to back up bank deposits over $250,000 in the risk-seeking bank Silicon Valley Bank, experts are pointing out that such a move will only cultivate higher risks both from banks and the depositors that choose them.  Knowing the loss will be covered by the Federal government, the depositor will see no reason to not bank with one of these high-risk, high-reward-promise banks, which will lead to the proliferation of more unstable practices in the banking industry as a whole.

A research fellow in economics for The Heritage Foundation, St. Onge, said of Biden’s move, “If the administration gets away with this, then we are going to start moving into a world where bankers, where Wall Street, feels like they can take any risk they like, because this is all going to get bailed out because you’ve got these human shield.”

More importantly, those who flourish under such a corrupt system will be directly beholden to the Democratic Party, whose stranglehold on power through mass mailer elections must be maintained in order for these corrupt “capitalists (CINOS, Capitalists in Name Only) to continue to exploit such a dangerous marketplace.

ARE THE BANK COLLAPSES AN OP TO SIEZE CONTROL OF AND POLITICIZE AMERICA’S FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS – A segment on Tucker Carlson asks the question, “What does the Federal Government hope to get out of [the bailout]?” Tucker posits the DNC-controlled Feds gain two things, one is an opportunity to inject more DNC-engineered anti-American woketarianism into the system and two is an opportunity to consolidate regional banks into the larger banks, making it easier for a few bankers to enforce DNC law on Americans than it is for the DNC to control many bankers, some of which might reject their hostile assault on the American republic. Tucker said, “Remember that after 2008, the Obama administration, Eric Holder swooped in and imposed DEI, diversity, equity and inclusion standards on the entire financial sector, and that’s one of the main reasons our big banks are now increasingly incompetent and one of reasons Americans are so divided by race. Ideologues who used the 2008 bank bailout to kill American meritocracy, that’s a big step, mostly unacknowledged, but we are living with its consequences. So, you have to ask yourself, what are they going to do this time?”

DNC SENATOR LOOKS TO BIG TECH TO PROTECT THE PARTY FROM “MISINFORMATION” ON BANKING COLLAPSE – Senator Mark Kelly (D-AZ) asked government officials from the Federal Reserve, Treasury, and FDIC (Federal Deposit and Insurance Corporation) if they had a plan to censor information that might counter whatever narrative the DNC wants pushed in relation to Biden’s banking blowup.  He was exposed by Republican congressmembers who were on the call, with U.S. Representative Thomas Massie (R-KY) saying “On our conference call, led by [Senate President Chuck] Schumer, with Fed, FDIC, and Treasury, a democrat senator asked the three agencies if there was a program underway on social media to censor information that would lead to a bank run.”

Senator Mark Kelly denied the claims, saying he was only asking about “foreign adversaries” spreading misinformation and protecting against that.  But remember, this is a party that calls loving the Constitution a dog whistle for white supremacism. To them, Americans ARE the foreigners, as manifest in the Twitter files that exposed the scare tactic of foreign misinformation spreading to ban American citizens from social media platforms.

Fed Sinks Stocks with Promise to Raise Rates

U.S. Federal Reserve Board Chair Jerome Powell recently declared that the road back to economic health is to be filled with higher interest rates than most might be expecting. “We raised rates very quickly last year, and we know that monetary tightening policy has delayed effects; it takes a while for the full effects to be seen,” he said.

He infused more confidence in the market when he added, “We have many unusual factors, and I don’t think anybody knows with confidence how this is going to play out.”

Powell promised indirectly that eventually we will all benefit with the Fed’s decisions to dramatically raise rates while the government continues to spend trillions funding Ukraine and Woketarian causes (as reflected in their baby green new deal).

Researchers Claim They Have Perfected Perfectly Secured Communications

Researchers from the University of Oxford and Carnegie Melon University claim to have created a completely secure method of digital transmission.  The technique hides the intended content within other content in a way, they claim, cannot be detected.  They use a technique called steganography, which involves sharing sensitive content within innocuous content.  Up to now, the insertion of the sensitive data into the innocuous data creates enough of a change in the innocuous data that the cloaking can be detected.

From Scitech daily

The algorithm applies to a setting called steganography: the practice of hiding sensitive information inside of innocuous content. Steganography differs from cryptography because the sensitive information is concealed in such a way that this obscures the fact that something has been hidden. An example could be hiding a Shakespeare poem inside an AI-generated image of a cat.

Despite having been studied for more than 25 years, existing steganography approaches generally have imperfect security, meaning that individuals who use these methods risk being detected. This is because previous steganography algorithms would subtly change the distribution of the innocuous content.

To overcome this, the research team used recent breakthroughs in information theory, specifically minimum entropy coupling, which allows one to join two distributions of data together such that their mutual information is maximized, but the individual distributions are preserved.

ED.NOTE: Whenever one sees reports of perfect encryption, a healthy dose of skepticism is in order.  It remains to be seen whether these researchers can further demonstrate the efficacy of their claims, but I have little doubt the advances tilt the balance of power towards anonymous, secure communication, though perhaps that goal is ultimately beyond our capacity.

If, indeed, they have stumbled upon the holy grail of secure encryption, the race to secure the technology and prevent it from reaching the general public is on.  Hopefully, there are open source advocates working to duplicate this type of work, preventing it from being cut off from regular Americans behind Intellectual Property walls.

UK Ponders Bill Making it Illegal to Even Believe in Abortion Outside Murder Centers

England is becoming a horror show of anti-Christ, anti-human ideological cultism manifesting itself in the worship and protection of murdering unborn children so casual fornicators can continue to sin at the expense of the murdered unborn child. The country is now proposing a bill that would criminalize protesting outside the murder centers, with an amendment added that would even prevent “silent prayer” outside the murder centers. Some MPs are fighting back, rightly arguing that the amendment creates thought crimes which would be extended far beyond merely preventing humans from silently praying outside murder centers.

The inhumanity of leftism is becoming more and more apparent as it has spread to all corners of the earth, exposed for everyone to see.  No longer isolated in distant countries, leftism is the new depraved norm. Its ideological worldview, that the self can make everyone itself by first becoming the orthodox, centrally controlled and defined, view of the social man, is producing on larger scales in lands where it can no longer hide, the murderous consequences of such a schizophrenic assumption.

England is not as far down the path of death as Canada, which has even less protections for its citizens than England does.  America is holding on by a thread, buttressed by the willingness of Americans to live out the Bill of Rights standards and DEMAND our governments and corporations do the same.  Without it, we would be where England is right now, passing laws that put government guns in the hands of child murderers and point them at those who resist this ungodly standard.

Leftist Activist Commissioner Sued by FDNY Chiefs

The New York Fire Department is dividing over the appointment and leadership of FDNY Commissioner Laura Kavanaugh, who seems to be more concerned with assuring the department reflect anti-American leftist ideals rather than being an efficient fire fighting force. The Chiefs have had enough, and now they are suing the leftist diversity hire.

The leftist appointed by Mayor Eric Adams has put a priority on getting women fire fighters, at risk to other fire fighters, and at risk to the people whose homes and businesses are on fire and in need of efficient handling.  She has no previous experience fighting fires herself, something that is not lost on the firefighters that are forced to follow a “leader” who wants to use the department to advance her leftist bona fides rather than serve the public securely, a trait more often than not seen in leftist politicians across these lands.

Reservist Protests Could Expand, Threatening Israeli Military Readiness

A growing number of Israelis are choosing to not show up for their reserve duty obligations, and more are threatening to join them.  The movement is a response to the plans by Netanyahu’s government to dramatically “reform” the judicial system in what seems like a transparent attempt to protect the Prime Minister, who faces corruption charges in an ongoing trial.

A former advisor to Yair Lapid, the former PM and current opposition leader, claimed he made the decision  because he has “no choice – I cannot do reserve duty under a regime that is trying to destroy us, and I cannot do reserve duty in an undemocratic country.”

For his part, Lapid falls just short of supporting the movement, but he continues to give it legitimacy.

Like America, it appears the rift between the “left” and the “right” is becoming existential at its core.  For we Americans, we can overcome this turmoil, but for Israel, they are surrounded by enemies, including the Palestinians, who would rather see them dead than live peacefully with them.

China Severs Internet in Taiwan Territory

Outlying islands owned by Taiwan have been experiencing their internet go out over and over again these past five years.  One island, Matsu, recently had their internet cut again.  The culprit is almost always the same, Chinese boats that invade their waters and send divers down to cut cables connecting the islands to the main island.  So far, the Chinese have done this to Matsu alone 27 times in the past five years.

Matsu is home to 14,000 residents, who make due by creating limited internet connectivity through microwave radio transmission, which is a slower form of internet than dial-up. Taiwan’s Coast Guard caught one Chinese ship red-handed, but it was able to escape to Chinese waters.
