WOKE TEACHERS ONLY, AMERICA’S TRUST CRISIS, GAGGING TRUMP, NATO’S NEW ARMY, UAW STILL NEGOTIATING
ED.NOTE: Non-Freedomist-shared links are NOT endorsements
TOP STORIES
ONLY WOKE IDEOLOGUES SELECTED TO BE PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHERS– The National Opportunity Project (NOP) conducted a survey of 70 American public schools and discovered in that survey these schools are hiring new teachers not so much based on their qualifications to teach but their willingness to terrorize children with abominable lies that sprout out of the woketarian ideology (DEI- Diversity, Equity, Inclusion) the DNC-CCP has chosen to adopt as its vehicle of power, its justification for taking violent action against peaceful Americans.
From The Federalist: Documents obtained by NOP show public schools advertised ideological requirements in their job postings with coded language seeking “equity-literate educator[s]” who will work at “dismantling systemic racism” with a “commitment to social justice.” Denver Public Schools dictated that applicants should “have an anti-racist mindset and will work to dismantle systems of oppression and inequity in our community.” GO DEEPER
AMERICANS LOSE TRUST IN ALL MAJOR INSTITUTIONS – American confidence in major institutions has hit an all-time low, according to Gallop, which has been tracking that confidence level since 1979 at a time when America had just lost the Vietnam War, had seen an American President resign, and were in the midst of Jimmy Carter’s self-inflicted economic malaise. At that time, confidence in these same institutions hovered around 50 percent, now they have plummeted to 26 percent. GO DEEPER.
PROSECUTORS MOVE TO GAG TRUMP, PROTECT CHUTKAN – Jack Smith and his collection of lawfare assassins are moving to up the ante against opponents of the Biden regime, announcing plans to seek a gag order against President Trump that is “narrow, well-defined.” Meanwhile, Jack Smith opposed the removal of DNC-CCP activist U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan, as requested by the Trump legal team over clear demonstrations of bias against the President and his supporters.

NATO WANTS 300K DEFENSIVE FORCE TO COUNTER RUSSIAN THREAT – NATO Chair Rob Baur told the press that NATO will be forming a defensive force of 300,000 soldiers to counter the perceived Russian threat of potential invasion. He said, “If we are talking about collective defense, you do not have the time to prepare for an attack if the attack happens. And it is not us planning the attack, it is the opponent planning the attack. If they attack, you have to be ready. Therefore, we need more soldiers at high readiness … We are talking, in NATO as a whole if Finland and Sweden have joined, of about 3.5 million soldiers in the alliance. So the 300,000 is the number … that we foresee at high readiness available for basically the first 30 days if it is necessary”.
UAW MEETS WITH BIG THREE DAY AFTER STRIKE STARTS – The United Auto Workers’ top leadership team met with representatives of the big three automakers a day after the union called a strike after their current working contract expired. The UAW said of the meeting that they had a “reasonably productive conversation with Ford today.”
More meetings took place between General Motors, with more scheduled for Monday with Stellantis.

DID RFK JR NARROWLY MISS BEING ASSASSINATED? – Adrian Paul Aispuro, 44, was charged with carrying a concealed weapon after being found at a Robert F. Kennedy campaign event trying to pass himself off as a member of Kennedy’s security detail. He was found to be carrying two loaded pistols, both in shoulder holsters, and extra fully-loaded magazines. The incident happened at the Wilshire Ebell Theater in Los Angeles, less than two miles from where the Ambassador Hotel once stood, where his father, Robert F. Kennedy was gun downed. He is only being held on bail for $35,000.
LIBYA FLOOD DISASTER HIGHLIGHTS WORLDWIDE DAM EMERGENCY – The recent disaster in Libya that left tens of thousands dead and a city nearly destroyed, was the result of dams that failed to hold back floodwaters.

GUATEMALAN ELECTION WINNER THREATENS TO TAKE TO THE STREETS – President-elect Bernardo Arévalo of Guatemala has apparently had enough of the legal jiu jitsu being deployed by the reigning party preventing him from taking power he won in a Democratic election. He is now announcing plans to call people to take to the streets to protest the government. He said it would be a protest for ALL Guatemalans who “(feel) cheated, against a system that is trying to mock them.”
IRAN REMOVES SEASONED UN INSPECTORS, IAEA CALLS MOVE “UNPRECEDENTED” – The International Atomic Energy Agency was informed by Iran of its decision to expel key seasoned UN inspectors which were there to assure Iran is meeting its current nuclear agreement obligations.
IAEA chief Rafael Grossi said of the move by Iran, “With today’s decision, Iran has effectively removed about one-third of the core group of the Agency’s most experienced inspectors designated for Iran. This measure, while formally permitted by the NPT Safeguards Agreement, has been exercised by Iran in a manner that affects in a direct and severe way the ability of the IAEA to conduct effectively its inspections in Iran. I strongly condemn this disproportionate and unprecedented unilateral measure.”

POLITICS (Mon-Fri)
THEN-VP BIDEN HELD MEETING AT RESIDENCE WITH SON, BANKING HEAD TO AID BURISMA PROJECT IN KAZAKHSTAN – GOP House investigators have uncovered a meeting at the Vice-Presidential residence on July 7, 2015, that involved then-Vice President Joe Biden, his son Hunter, family business partner Devon Archer and Mark Holtzman, the then-chairman of Kazakhstan’s largest bank.
The NY Post claims “(t)he unspoken subtext of the conversation between the four men was that Hunter and Archer were working on a lucrative energy project in Kazakhstan on behalf of Burisma, the corrupt Ukrainian energy company that was paying them $1 million apiece.” They base that claim on information received from an unnamed source who was present at the meeting.
AG PAXTON ACQUITTED BY TEXAS SENATE – Embattled Attorney General Ken Paxton is back on the job after being acquitted of all 16 articles of impeachment by the Texas State Senate which were passed by the Texas House. In the House battle, 70 percent of the Republicans voted for impeachment, while only two of Republican Senators voted to convict on any of the articles.
Paxton said of the final vote, “The sham impeachment coordinated by the Biden Administration with liberal House Speaker Dade Phelan and his kangaroo court has cost taxpayers millions of dollars, disrupted the work of the Office of Attorney General and left a dark and permanent stain on the Texas House. The weaponization of the impeachment process to settle political differences is not only wrong, it is immoral and corrupt.”

FINANCE (Mon & Thurs)
AZERBAIJAN ANNOUNCES NEW LAND ROUTES FOR CENTRAL ASIA TO REACH EUROPE THROUGH – President Ilham Aliyev, speaking at the 5th Consultative Meeting of the Heads of State of Central Asia (held this year in Tajikistan), told his Central Asian counterparts, “Our brothers in Central Asia know that Azerbaijan’s entire transportation and logistics infrastructure is available to them. We are modernizing the Baku-Tbilisi-Kars railway…. The cargo volume via that road will be increased from 1 to 5 million tons (per annum). In parallel to that, the capacity of the Baku Trade Port is also being expanded from current 15 to 25 million tons.”
EPA MAKES IT EASIER FOR ANYONE TO STOP ENERGY PIPELINES FROM BEING BUILT – The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced the finalization of a rule that gives much broader authority for states and tribes to stop energy pipelines from being built. Radhika Fox, a top EPA official told reporters, “ Our focus was on restoring [state] authority and providing an efficient path to critical infrastructure projects in this country.”
Wilson’s dream has come through, as the administrators are now empowered to create new law unencumbered by “democratic” and “republican” impediments.

CULTURE (Mon & Thurs)
DID THE POPE KNOW ABOUT NAZI WAR CRIMES WHILE CONTINUING TO COOPERATE WITH THEM? – During World War II, the Vatican failed to condemn the actions by the Nazis, specifically regarding their efforts to exterminate the Jewish race from the European continent. Their reason has been that the Vatican couldn’t condemn an action they could never confirm until after the war.
Now, evidence has emerged of correspondence between then-Pope Pius XII and a German Jesuit that seems to show he should have known with “confirmable” detail about the atrocities taking place under the brutal dictatorship of Adolph Hitler.
AUSTRALIA’S BIG W PULLS BOOK TEACHING 8-YEAR OLDS HOW TO “SCISSOR” – After parental backlash and alleged threats to its workers, the Australian retail chain Big W, has announced plans to pull the children’s version of the book “Welcome to Sex” called “Welcome to Sex: Your no-silly-questions guide to sexuality, pleasure, and figuring it out.” In the children’s book, it covers explicit sexual details and encourages children to explore their sexuality, including how to “scissor” if they’re engaging in lesbian sex.
