January 25, 2024 -

Scientists in Beijing, who are connected to the Chinese military, cloned a COVID-like virus discovered in pangolins, called GX_P2V, and used it to infect mice. The mice had been "humanized," which means they were engineered to show a protein found in people, to determine how the virus might react in humans. (Related: Mysterious lab discovered in Fresno, Calif., "at least 20 potentially infectious agents" detected along with mice engineered to spread pandemics.)

Transgender suicide rate skyrocketing; media blames everything except LGBT mental illness

July 04, 2023 -

Numerous studies, in fact, have found that transgenders and other LGBTs are generally very unhappy and much more prone to killing themselves than normal people are. And yet the corporate-controlled media wants us all to believe that their feelings of malcontent and suicide have nothing to do with the fact that they believe they are some other gender(s) trapped inside the "wrong" body.

The Danish study found that transgenders have 7.7 times the normal rate of suicide attempts, ...

South Korea boosts childbirth bonuses and housing subsidies to combat plummeting fertility rate

January 08, 2024 -

The proposed measures, introduced by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, seek to encourage more couples to raise children to improve the country's low fertility rate.

EARLY DETECTION, EARLY DEATH: Mammograms linked to 84% higher breast cancer death rate

December 05, 2023 -

Because of the very high rate of false positives they produce, mammograms end up killing, it would seem, many more women than would otherwise die from breast cancer had they never participated in the mammography racket.

Mammograms produce trauma in patients, both physically in breast tissue and also psychologically, emotionally and even spiritually in women who end up being told that they must undergo even more invasive "treatments" in order to survive.

The pressure ...

U.S. farmers abandoning failed wheat crops at fastest rate since World War I

May 17, 2023 -

If these expectations are met, then this will mean the lowest harvest ratio since 1917 at the height of World War I, the agency warned in its latest monthly food report.

America's Great Plains have been so dry for so many years now that crops simply are not getting enough moisture to thrive. Some fields are in such poor shape that the wheat crops they contain likely will not produce any heads, leaving no reason to harvest them.

Fortunately for farmers, they can still ...

EVs chew through tires at a shocking rate … producing mountains of excess rubber tire waste

17 days ago -

Because of their relatively extreme heft," to quote one source, EVs burn through tires like it's nobody's business, creating mountains of excess tire waste and excess tire and infrastructure bills.

The latest J.D. Power reports show that EV owners generally expect similar wear-and-tear on their EV cars as their internal combustion cars. The reality, though, is that EVs require new tires much more often than internal combustion engine cars do.

In many ways, EV adoption ...

Study: CO2 is increasing the rate of GLOBAL GREENING, even in places affected by drought

Chinese lab creates new mutant COVID-19 strain with 100% KILL RATE in “humanized” mice

January 22, 2024 -

Known as GX_P2V, the deadly "virus," as they are calling it, attacks the brain in such a way as to kill the host in eight days or less. The fact that GX_P2V kills so fast was surprising even to the researchers involved, who say the disease's fast-kill rate exceeded their expectations.

Humanized mice, by the way, are mice that have been genetically engineered (GMO) to reflect a genetic makeup similar to that of human beings. New research out of Beijing unpacks the matter ...

Census Bureau: Child poverty rate in the U.S. has MORE THAN DOUBLED year-over-year

September 21, 2023 -
