ABC News is reporting that Donald J Trump must testify in the NY Attorney General Investigation attempting to find something, anything she can remotely charge him in.
Levi’s President Jennifer Sey has stepped down as the Global Brand President after having once been on the cusp of becoming the next CEO. Sey was a career woman at Levi’s, having worked her way up to Global Brand President and been considered to become, at one point, the next CEO.
Not only did Sey resign, she turned down any severance package because they were attached to her signing a non-disclosure agreement, preventing her from sharing her story with others after she stepped down. Sey chose to write a blog to express her reasons for leaving the company, which really boil down to the company becoming insanely, militantly woketarian, in the fullest DNC-CCP version of the sense of that term, the most authoritarian, unforgiving, thought-controlling version of what once was mostly called social justice.
In that blog, she documented how she went along with all the social justice activism the company has been engaged in over the last decade and more. She documented her authentic enthusiasm in engaging in all these causes, from global warming to LGBTIQQ rights, to black lives matter. She was there actively and consensually participating. But then came Covid, and the mandates. At some point, she decided she was not in support of the mask mandates, and opposition to mask mandates was considered racist in Levi’s activist land.
Soon, she was being accused of being racist, despite her history working for ‘black causes.’ It wasn’t enough. That’s what she learned. All of the sacrifices, lovingly given, were not enough to appease the great god Moloch, who was never interested in justice at all. She went from a potential CEO to being told she needed to come out and apologize to the black community for offending them by being against the vaccine mandates. It was too much.
Sey left, and spilled the beans. And thus the beast shakes off the agentic among us not willing to pay so high a price to have a career under these current rules. People of agency will not be told what to think or who to like. We can follow our civic code already in existence well before the morality police of the sjw variety ever arrived. It’s called our Bill of Rights standards, our recognition of the need to respect the rights boundaries of others if we ourselves hope to enjoy them. We need not like one another to exchange value with one another as assumed equals who share the same civic Bill of Rights standards and are willing to extend them to anyone who does so with them.
Perhaps Seir may come to realize how alien the sjw morality code as corporate and state law is antithetical to American Bill of Rights values.
If so, folks like Sey could be the vanguard of a new pushback that won’t throw the baby out with the bathwater. What man intends for evil can yet accomplish good. It does not give a pass to evil, but it gives hope to those suffering in the midst of it, that through evil acts we as a people will yet glean from their work gold they never intended on us keeping.
We as a people here in America must come to a physiological-level reality of power moment and count the cost of not being a people and the cost of not being a people bound by a unity under the Bill of Rights, the Constitution, the republican form of representative governance of a government whose power begins with the people and ends with them as well. The question is this, can we, those of us simply not part of the DNC-defined left, find common ground enough under a Bill of Rights frame to do what must be done to restore republicanism and Bill of Rights standards, and even assure they are extended to the market and social spaces as well.
We must hold on to the liberties won for a great number of people thanks to the efforts of this same DNC-Woketarianism. Though they would never allow such liberties to hold once they consolidated power, we will. We will be a free people no matter how we define ourselves and how we biologically are so long as we respect the Bills of Rights of others, and recognize we do so not for their sake, but for own, for a nation with a spirit of the Bill of Rights is death to tyrants and fascists.
Former Levi’s Jeans’ global brand president Jennifer Sey resigned in an open letter Monday claiming the company lost sight of its values.
“If you told me that after achieving all that, after spending almost my entire career at one company, that I would resign from it, I’d think you were really crazy,” wrote Sey in an open letter on the Common Sense Substack. “Today, I’m doing just that. Why? Because, after all these years, the company I love has lost sight of the values that made people everywhere — including those gymnasts in the former Soviet Union — want to wear Levi’s.”
Sey said her time with Levi‘s was always the “most consistent” part of her life, writing in her letter that she always felt comfortable to be open about her life and politics until the pandemic hit.
More than 20 years ago I joined Levi’s. Yesterday I resigned my post as president so that I can use my voice. https://t.co/7UG6TCXqHU
I have been telling our readers for quite some time that the fundamental battle between those who control and those who wish to be free is over intellectual property and how control of information and use of technology could determine if the human future is a new serfdom or a new level of liberty for the vast majority of people in these lands. One path is covered with lawsuits and expensive lawyers trained to turn a parsed sentence in a white paper into a loss of an idea that someone truly did create. That path chokes off technological development and contains it behind paywalls, offering you nothing but subscription services to meet all our needs and desires.
That path leads to total control, a social credit score that could determine if you can even rent a car (for no one, if they have their way, will own cars in the future).
The oppressive nature of excessive intellectual property laws can be seen in how patent trolling is still rising in America, costing industry millions and leaving patent ownership to the most powerful among us almost exclusively.
The other path, open source technology, leads to the empowering of individuals and free associations to equip themselves to meet their own sustainably flourishing needs.
Section 337 of the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act of 1930, meant to protect the US against unfair trade and … [+] illegal imports, is weaponized today by foreign non practicing entities or patent trolls. From Left,Rep. Willis C. Hawley, Senator Reed Smoot.
With supply chain shortages, the global race to 5G, and the need to ensure the US leads in information technology, the United States International Trade Commission (USITC) has an important role to play. Indeed, the agency has experienced a record number of requests for fact-finding reports from Congress, and lawmakers of both parties and houses have praised the agency for valuable reports on topics like the effect of Covid-19 on supply chains. However, not all activity at the USITC is desirable. Sadly, the agency has become a hotbed for patent trolling, and USITC commissioners are driving the trend by allowing a robust stream of abusive section 337…
The Minnesota Senate Republicans are hoping to pass a bill that would make public school curricula more transparent to parents, and also equip parents to be able to challenge the schools when they find issue with what the schools are teaching. In many school districts, especially over the last ten years, what was once openly available, even online, is now behind firewalls. Parents must file a FOIA request to see their own school’s curriculum. What do the schools have to hide from us?
The push for more transparency and accountability is only going to increase across this country as more and more parents are coming to realize just how militant our own government schools have been in attempting to create revolutionaries and activists cut in the party’s image (the DNC) rather than equip people to build lives of their own choosing within an American republican reality, a Constitutional republic that affords its citizens the primary source of government power, even guaranteeing their right to bear arms should the state fail to recognize who the real government is (not the experts, not the elected officials, not the bureaucrats, the people, who have rights, even when they are in the minority).
Minnesota Senate Republicans on Monday unveiled a series of bills they say would empower parents to review and object to school curriculum.
Four GOP lawmakers, including two running for governor, said they want to enshrine in state law the principle that a parent has a right to direct their child’s education.
“Parents know what’s best for their kids in their education,” state Sen. Paul Gazelka, R-East Gull Lake, said during a news conference. The former majority leader is seeking his party’s endorsement for governor.
“Let’s make a syllabus available in every classroom in Minnesota,” said state Sen. Michelle Benson, R-Ham Lake, who is also running for governor.
Details about the proposals were scarce. Under current state law, school districts have to provide instructional materials for parents’ review upon request, as well as “alternative instruction” if parents object to the content.
Many Americans across this country are experiencing dramatic spikes in their electric heating bills this winter, and you can thank Joe Biden and the DNC for that. Their efforts to shut down major American natural gas projects like the Keystone Pipeline are the most significant factor for your spike in your heating bills this winter.
As usual, DNC policy is created by isolated, sheltered experts in sterile rooms, who never have to live the consequence of the high moral choices they suppose they are making for the rest of us.
The spike in natural gas prices because of Biden’s almost seemingly intentional crippling of American energy independence capacity comes at a time when all of the trillions of dollars this administration has printed is now producing 40-year-high levels of inflation. 80 million people can’t be wrong, can they?
My January electric bill is up about 40% from last year, which itself was about 20% higher than it was in 2020. Before you ask: No, I didn’t invest in any new Christmas lights; nor did I suddenly start mining bitcoin. In fact, my Con Edison bill conveniently points out I used slightly less power this year.
It turns out I am just one of millions of middle-class schlubs in New York whose wallets are lighter this winter thanks to the Democratic Party’s catastrophic climate policy — and my humble 40% increase is nowhere near some of the triple-digit horror stories out there.
If you listen to Con Ed, the spike in your bill is a direct consequence of the rising cost of acquiring natural gas, due to its global supply and demand. The past few months, the commodity price has hovered between $4.00 and $6.00/MMBtu, which are averages we haven’t seen since the 2008 financial crisis.
It would be criminal not to mention that President Joe Biden scrapping…
The Chinese are very upset at the recent decision by the Biden administration to sell arms to Taiwan, the nation that, according to China, doesn’t really exist. One China means no Taiwan, in case you’re all paying attention. They’ve issued some missives to the effect that how dare America and how weak America, blah blah blah, this is an existential threat to our very existence, blah blah blah.
As usual, the story is getting crickets on top folds across the MSMiverse, but it certainly bears noting. As an aside, if you read the Freedomist enough you know we couple the CCP and the DNC together often, but we also point out that this alliance is not really a perfect union, as both Machiavellian partners in the dance are seeking to help one another as much as they need to while pivoting to assure when the need for the union is no longer there, the other will have the advantage.
This move by the Biden administration is about assuring the billionaire class of California and New York have enough leverage to assure China follows through on the promise of allowing them continued and even extended access to that fatty gold billion people market.
Beijing lodged a protest with Washington over arms sales to Taiwan since these actions undermine China’s sovereignty, the Chinese Defense Ministry said on Wednesday.
“The sale of armaments by the United States to Taiwan seriously violates the ‘One China’ principle and the provisions of three joint communiques between China and the US,” the statement published on the agency’s website said.
According to the Defense Ministry, the US “grossly intrudes into China’s domestic affairs, harming the country’s sovereignty and security interests, destroying military relations between China and the US, as well as threatening peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait.” “Due to this, China expressed strong displeasure and a resolute protest as well as made a strong diplomatic remonstrance to Washington.”
Reuters is reporting that a FOIA request they made to the US Federal Reserve for documents that would reveal the types of Covid-beneficial trades that our elected politicians and appointed experts have been engaged in has been summarily and fully and completely and finally DENIED.
That’s right, folks, we the American people and the ‘free press’ have no right to know just how the ones who have been orchestrating our Covid culture for the last two years may have or may not have benefited by the decisions they made that had such profound effects on hundreds of millions of the human beings they allege to be serving, most of which have been resoundingly negative.
While children have seen their lives upended and turned into mask ghost life floating on zoom calls, our politicians and experts have had free rein to trade in our markets as they saw fit, with no accountability, and with immunity from insider trading laws. The wealth shift in America has been astounding, and it happened under the so-called party of the poor, the Democrat Party. But that party has morphed into an elite club of mad billionaires who want to live forever and float around space from their giant enormity, lording it over the very poors the DNC once alleged to champion.
We have become their experiment in the religion of elite man makes poor man in his image and purges the unmakeable from the frame. This is the reality of power when the advantaged attain what I call Citadelian status, where they exist outside the socio-cultural consequences of action the vast majority of us find ourselves facing. These consequences are the result, mostly, of the opportunistic power-advantaged exapting any popular outrage ideology into a social control device designed to eliminate future competition to the power the advantaged currently hold.
From Christianity to Islam, from Confucianism to Buddhism, from every philosophical, theological, economical, scientific thought that gained an audience, the power-advantaged were ready to exapt the patterns from serving the cause to exploiting, commodifying, ‘tweaking’ the original code, preserving the language and the emotions, but creating new outcomes, outcomes designed to serve the very people that created the outrage from which the original ideas emerged in the first place.
The bible verse, Isiah 30:18 constantly comes to mind, and I will continue to repeat it wherever I see it lived out again.
As for the scoundrel, his devices are evil; he plans wicked schemes to ruin the poor with lying words even when the plea of the needy is right.
Don’t expect our masters to expose the gosh derned business just yet, folks, but, nice try Reuters. Maybe your masters have realized their team may have gone too far, and there will be heck to pay when the inevitable happens and the truth of the colonization of the American lands in the Covid culture of the DNC using fear and hate to create just enough compliant, just enough willing to enforce the ‘new normal,’ which was, and is, nothing short of doing anything possible to dismantle the American culture of the Bill of Rights, where, no matter the vote or the good intentions, the state cannot violate the basic sovereignty of the individual, from which its fundamental authority and legitimacy is derived.
We are not a nation of priest-kings and gnostic-like shamans with gossamer-winged languages to mesmerize us to complacency. Our ploughmen know the Bill of Rights code and, so far, that spirit does not appear to have died in the majority of Americans, across all the divides the DNC would have you zealously fixate your whole heart and mind upon, as if your very life were nothing in comparison to ending hate once and for all, ending history, ending god and entering man, in total, in everything, in full equality, in ecstasy of union……etc……That spirit has names that go back thousands of years, with Balaam perhaps being the most often used, the spirit of sacrifice, where the new and the old are sacrificed to the now, the disciples of the social where human becomes all in all by all for all, and all non-human is purged from the living.
The ecstasy of the left was protected today by the Federal Reserve, for now, but lies beget lies beget enemies beget secret recordings, etc, etc, etc….It’s only a matter of time before Haman learns why he ordered the gallows made in the first place. Hint, it wasn’t for who he thought it was for.
Feb 9 (Reuters) – The U.S. Federal Reserve, responding to a Freedom of Information Act request by Reuters, said there are about 60 pages of correspondence between its ethics officials and policymakers regarding financial transactions conducted during the pandemic year 2020.
But it “denied in full” to release the documents, citing exemptions under the information act that it said applied in this case.
The disclosure of trading by two regional reserve bank presidents during the pandemic led them to resign last fall, and prompted Fed chair Jerome Powell to overhaul Fed ethics rules and request the central bank’s inspector general to investigate.
The FOIA responses to Reuters for the first time quantify how much back and forth may have occurred over policymakers’ personal trading in a year when markets first cratered, then rebounded on the basis of both massive federal fiscal stimulus and an aggressive rescue effort by the…
UK Culture Secretary Nadine Dorries has warned Mark Zuckerberg and other Social Media magnates that their days might be numbered if they don’t comply with the Online Safety Bill she is working to get passed. The bill would make the social media platforms responsible for the illegal activity that takes place on its site, meaning the owners themselves could be arrested by the British police for crimes committed on their platform if the crimes take place in the UK.
The bill, if it becomes law, could effectivel end social media in Britain, as the cost to enforce your platform might be prohibitively expensive.
Mark Zuckerberg could end up in jail if Facebook does not comply with new online safety laws, the UK Culture Secretary has warned.
Nadine Dorries warned that she was putting social media giants such as Facebook on notice with her Online Safety Bill which is supposed to force online giants to act on illegal content on its platforms.
On Friday, it was announced the long-awaited Bill had been strengthened with the addition of a number of new criminal offences to force social media firms to act on illegal content more quickly.
Offences such as revenge porn, hate crime, fraud, the sale of illegal drugs or weapons, the promotion or facilitation of suicide, people smuggling and sexual exploitation have been added to the list of priority offences that must be removed by platforms under the new rules.
A Breitbart Investigative Reporter named Peter Schweizer is claiming that the Biden family has received more than $30 million from high-ranking officials of the Chinese Communist Party, officials who happen to be involved in “Chinese Intelligence.”
Hunter Biden’s business partner, for instance, was the vice minister at the ministry for state security, according to Schwiezer.
We here at The Freedomist have hopefully been showing you in part how the American ‘left,’ a coalition of white urban youth, the disenfranchised, intelligencia, and internationalist billionaires, would need a nation such as China, with its vast markets, to help fund the projects that are designed to create humans rather than serve them. Our entertainment, our education, our politics, our religions, all of it is now called into question by the new types of values this coalition hopes to foist on Americans, knowing full well their values are anti-American in that their ‘solutions’ require a dismantling of the Bill of Rights.
The disenfranchised and the white urban youth might actually believe they’re working to end racism and bigotry, but the billionaires that manipulate them are only interested in ending the Bill of Rights. They’d use any means, any belief system they could to end that impediment to their ability to move as fast as their competitors, the same China this coalition currently needs to fund its un-monetizable propaganda.
If the media were suddenly to be owned by Americans rather than Chinese Communist Party collusionists, what would that media have to say about a story like this? Well, for starters, they’d talk about it, something the current media corporatists are making sure doesn’t happen, lest their whole scheme be ‘exposed.’ Newsflash paranoid media, your schemes have long been exposed.
Breitbart News senior contributor Peter Schweizer on Sunday revealed how the Biden family have profited from business with individuals “linked to the highest levels of Chinese intelligence.”
Schweizer, the author of Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win, said Biden’s son Hunter, while the elder Biden was serving as both vice president and president, was engaged in deals with individuals tied to the highest levels of Chinese intelligence. He called the Biden family’s business dealings “unprecedented.”
“One of the most startling things we uncovered is the simple fact that the Biden family, while he was vice president of the United States and continuing when he became president, received some $31 million from Chinese individuals who are linked to the highest levels of Chinese intelligence,” Schweizer outlined on Fox News Channel’s Life, Liberty & Levin.
….“His business partner was the vice minister at the ministry for state security,” Schweizer added. “He was in charge of, among other things, recruiting foreign nationals to spy for China. He was the head of something called the Number Eight Bureau. It doesn’t get any higher than that. These are the sorts of individuals that were striking deals with Hunter Biden. In this particular case, Che Feng happened to help a $20 million deal be secured. Another individual that helped arrange that deal is a guy named Mr. Zhao. Mr. Zhao helped with that $20 million deal. He also sent $5 million to Hunter Biden, and he sent that money from a very interesting business called Harvest Global.”
The Russian government has released some details of a recent experiment to utilize neural network artificial intelligence to attempt to trach down the locations of protestors based on video surveillance the AI was able to analyze. The experiment netted the arrests of 454 protestors in 17 cities across Russia. The expermient happened last year.
In nations such as Russia, and even more in nations such as China, these types of human control toys will be readily deployed with little to any fear of any ‘legal’ pushback from courts or citizens. In nations such as America, so long as the DNC does NOT consolidate power, human control toys such as these run afowl of many of our essential Bills of Rights, the code of conduct from which our government’s power is legitimized. Without honoring that code of conduct, the government loses its very legitimacy.
One of the reasons the DNC and its particular group of billionaires have latched on to the moral supremacism of “CRT” is that it is hoped the new moral code of CRT will override the Bill of Rights code of conduct of the American republic. It’s a de facto act of sedition highlighted by this Russian report which demonstrates the existential danger of allowing our American lands to lose their Bill of Rights constraint on the state.
In 2021, artificial intelligence helped Russian police locate at least 164 rally participants. In total, law enforcement officers detained more than 454 people in 17 cities of the Russian Federation.
According to the report of the human rights organization OVD-Info, video surveillance cameras with an integrated face recognition system detected protesters on the streets, in the subway and near the entrances of apartment buildings.
According to Roskomsvoboda experts, biometric identification algorithms do not yet have a clear legal framework and are in the “gray zone”. This does not allow citizens to appeal the use of technology against them and requires the creation of a specialized regulation to determine who and on what basis can access the recognition system.
A single biometric the system will be integrated with the public services website
The Ministry of Digital Development of the Russian Federation signed a contract with Rostelecom to integrate the public services website with the state Unified Biometric System. The deal amounted to 1.2 billion rubles.
