WHO Declares Loneliness a ‘Global Public Health Concern’
The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared loneliness to be a pressing global health threat, with the US surgeon general saying that its mortality effects are equivalent to smoking 15 cigarettes a day.
WHO has launched an international commission on the problem – led by the US surgeon general, Dr Vivek Murthy, and the African Union youth envoy, Chido Mpemba – of 11 advocates and government ministers, including Ralph Regenvanu, the minister of climate change adaptation in Vanuatu, and Ayuko Kato, the minister in charge of measures for loneliness and isolation in Japan.

First Migrants Arrive at NYC’s Floyd Bennett Field, Only to Scoff and Leave
The first batch of migrants was bused to Floyd Bennett Field’s makeshift tent city in Brooklyn on Sunday — and wanted no part of it.
Dozens of migrant families arrived at the controversial remote housing site courtesy of the Adams administration shortly after 12:30 p.m., looked around and promptly hopped back on the bus to try to return to their previous shelters.
“We weren’t told where we were going,” one of the bused migrant dads griped to The Post. “I work in The Bronx. My kids go to school in The Bronx. For us to live out here is ridiculous.
“We’re going back,” he fumed.

Is a Cyber 9/11 Coming?
Talk of a “Cyber 9/11” has been circulating for years. With the next presidential election twelve months away now, some folks are predicting that a major cyber event will happen before then, throwing a monkey wrench into the 2024 election process.
What the heck is Cyber 9/11?
What does Cyber 9/11 mean? Is there a real risk? What should we be preparing for?
There are two aspects to the Cyber 9/11 concept. The first is the disaster itself; 9/11 was a catastrophe that ended the lives of over 3000 people in one day. There are fears that if power grids were hacked or enough damage was done to logistical centers, the ensuing chaos would cause deaths.
Quite memorably, back in 2000, a disgruntled public works employee in Australia hacked into the water treatment system and caused raw sewage to pour into public areas, flooding a Hyatt hotel. One man acting alone caused a disgusting, expensive mess. Of course security experts are concerned with what a team of angry individuals could do.

Chinese Brothel Near CIA Headquartes Netted Military Officials w/Security Clearances
While the FBI has targeted pro-life protesters and the national security establishment spent years accusing Republicans of working for Russia, China built outposts all over this country, hacked us and has spied on us to an unprecedented degree. Unlike hacking, this is very old-school tradecraft dating back thousands of years.
Three individuals have been arrested on charges of operating a “high-end brothel network” in Massachusetts and Virginia with a clientele that included elected officials, military officers and government contractors with security clearances, the Justice Department announced Wednesday.
“Pick a profession,” Joshua Levy, acting US attorney for Massachusetts, said of the sprawling client list during a press conference in Boston. “They’re probably represented in this case.”

Google Abandons Building 15,000 Homes In Bay Area
The latest chapter in the once great city’s demise came this week when Google pulled out of a $15 billion investment in Santa Clara County that would have built 15,000 homes, according to Gizmodo.
The report notes that Google and Lendlease have jointly terminated their $15 billion deal, originally struck in 2019, to develop housing and commercial spaces in Sunnyvale, San Jose, and Mountain View, the latter being the home base for the tech giant.
The ‘Downtown West’ project in San Jose was set to feature 4,000 affordable housing units, sufficient office space for 20,000 workers, a 300-room hotel, and 10 parks. Instead, San Francisco now “gets nothing”.

Destroying Robert E. Lee’s Statue Marks Low Point. Hungary Shows It Doesn’t Have To Be The Endpoint
There is much to dissect in the barbaric removal, destruction, and eventual “remolding” of Charlottesville’s statue of Gen. Robert E. Lee. But the most astounding aspect of this destruction is the brazen and intentional publishing of a video showing Lee’s dismemberment — his face being cut off and melted.
The radical left in the United States has embarked on a path distressingly similar to Hungary’s experiences during its 40-year Soviet occupation. The left has rewritten American history and perpetrated the iconoclastic destruction of its past. Now the left desires to mold a new future. A quick comparison, however, shows that while the United States is on a tragic and dangerous path, it is not an irreversible one.

Why Is the National Institutes of Health Helping China?
The United States is fiercely competing with Communist China in many fields, not the least of which is medical research. China seeks to supplant the U.S. as the global leader in everything from developing vaccines to curing diseases. Remarkably, the U.S. National Institutes of Health has boosted China for years, as Americans learned during the Covid-19 pandemic when it came out that the NIH funded research in Wuhan’s virus lab. Now the NIH has given China another gift by downplaying research excellence in favor of racial equity.
On October 19, the NIH announced a “simplified framework” for “research project grant applications.” Henceforth, when NIH reviewers consider funding a research project, they will no longer grade researchers’ expertise or their institutions’ resources. Instead, they will mark these criteria as “appropriate” or in need of improvement, providing significantly less of the detail that most bears on a project’s likelihood of success. Previously, numerical scores played a decisive role in determining whether a project got funding. Expertise and institutional resources are now the only part of the three-prong review process that does not have a numerical score.

We Are Breeding Generations of Little Tyrants
Sam Bankman-Fried, the former CEO and founder of cryptocurrency exchange FTX, is currently on trial for criminal fraud and conspiracy. Bankman-Fried is accused of bilking investors out of billions of dollars when his company spectacularly collapsed.
The trial is not going well for SBF. His former lover, Caroline Ellison, provided damning testimony against him two weeks ago. Ellison — who has already pleaded guilty to several counts of financial fraud — told the court that Bankman-Fried thought rules like “don’t lie” on balance sheets and “don’t steal” from customers didn’t apply to him. In Bankman-Fried’s own emails, he dismisses financial regulations and the officials who enforce them in the most vulgar terms.

UK Govt to Abolish Biometrics, Surveillance Safeguards as it Embraces Facial Recognition
The United Kingdom is at the leading edge of many of the digital authoritarian trends sweeping ostensibly democratic nations. In one of the many dark ironies of our age, it is the government of George Orwell’s native Britain that is seeking to massively escalate its deployment of live facial recognition (LFR) technologies, despite the concerns raised about its potential impact. In late September, 180 rights groups and tech experts called on governments around the world to halt their use of facial recognition surveillance.

Chinese Intel Service ‘Affiliate’ Takes Credit For Bringing Gavin Newsom To China
A Chinese intelligence service “affiliate” claimed California Gov. Gavin Newsom accepted its invitation to visit China, according to a Daily Caller News Foundation review of that organization’s social media account.
The Chinese People’s Association For Friendship With Foreign Countries (CPAFFC) took credit for inviting Newsom to visit China in an Oct. 26 social media post that pictured the governor meeting with the organization’s CCP party secretary and chairman, Yang Wanming, in Beijing. Newsom arrived in China on Monday for a week-long trip intended to focus on “climate action and partnership between two of the world’s largest economies,” according to his office.

Soros is Bankrolling Pro-Hamas Protests
Here’s a shocker. Many of the groups holding pro-Palestinian and anti-Israel protests across the nation since the war in the Middle East first broke out are funded by none other than billionaire leftist financier George Soros.
According to a new report, the Open Society Foundations, Soros’ organization, has funneled millions of dollars to these groups, some of which are publicly justifying Hamas’ actions in the Israel/Gaza conflict, which raises serious questions about the merits and ethics of finances going toward an organization that has a well-documented history of killing Israeli civilians.

Vax Prevented 354,000 Delta Wave Deaths in Japan, Claims Absurd Modelling Study
Here’s the abstract to the study ‘Evaluating the COVID-19 vaccination program in Japan, 2021 using the counterfactual reproduction number‘ (emphasis added).
"Japan implemented its nationwide vaccination program against COVID-19 in 2021, immunising more than one million people (approximately 1%) a day. However, the direct and indirect impacts of the programme at the population level have yet to be fully evaluated. To assess the vaccine effectiveness during the Delta variant (B.1.617.2) epidemic in 2021, we used a renewal process model. A transmission model was fitted to the confirmed cases from February 17th to November 30th 2021. In the absence of vaccination, the cumulative numbers of infections and deaths during the study period were estimated to be 63.3 million (95% confidence interval [CI] 63.2-63.6) and 364,000 (95% CI 363-366), respectively; the actual numbers of infections and deaths were 4.7 million and 10,000, respectively… We demonstrated the very high effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccination in Japan during 2021, which reduced mortality by more than 97% compared with the counterfactual scenario."
Put simply, Nishiura et al. input a load of outlandish assumptions into their model to make it estimate that without the jabs, about 50% of the population would have been infected and 0.3% of the population would have died of Covid during the Delta wave alone. The nicest thing I can say is that they clearly omitted the assumption that Japan’s 100% mask rate made a difference.

BBC Planet Earth III Bullshit Exposed
BBC Planet Earth III left viewers in tears on Sunday evening with scenes of soggy flamingo chicks struggling to survive storm surges and turtle hatchlings battling sea level rises.
“The planet has changed beyond recognition,” warned Sir David Attenborough gravely, “Transformed by a powerful force. Us.”
Yet despite the gloomy tone set by the programme, many of the animals featured in the episode are faring surprisingly well, thanks to global conservation efforts.
On Raine Island, at the northern tip of the Great Barrier Reef, programme-makers suggested that the world’s largest turtle rookery was facing annihilation through a double threat of warming sands and sea-level rise.
“If sea levels rise as predicted within the next 30 years, Raine Island will disappear beneath the waves,” said Sir David.
But research by James Cook University, in Australia, suggests that Raine Island has actually been growing in recent years.

Overseas US Military Members to Get Pay Cut...Again?
Some members of the U.S. military, especially those serving at some of the most expensive duty assignments, are set to receive a cut in monthly allowance designed to offset the high costs of living. According to a report from Military.com, the Defense Department will make a second round of cuts to troops’ overseas cost-of-living allowances (OCOLA) next month, with the final cut coming on Nov. 15 and affecting members’ Dec. 1 paychecks.
It seems a bit odd — unfair, even — that those who are already sacrificing to protect their country are being asked to take multiple cuts in pay by the very nation that they are serving. All the more so since, despite Bidenflation, so many others are getting freebies. Students are having their government loans forgiven, addicts are receiving free crack pipes and other accoutrements...and illegal aliens are getting cash and services thrown at them as if out of an industrial-strength Pez dispenser run amok.

Victoria's Secret Ditches Wokeness After Sales Drop
In every boy's life, there were two iconic moments growing up. The first Playboy he found in the woods. And the first Victoria's Secret catalog that was accidentally delivered to his address instead of his hotter neighbor. Many a tube sock lost their lives that day.
Because men like looking at attractive women, feminists and other woke scolds had been after the lingerie company for some time. In June 2021, the woke won and VS decided they were going to do away with attractive models in favor of people like Meghan Rapinoe. Who accused the company of patriarchy and sexism. Two years and BILLIONS OF DOLLARS LATER, the company is realizing they made a mistake.

Israel Deletes Video They Claimed Showed Islamic Jihad Rocket Hit Hospital
The Israeli government on Tuesday deleted video they falsely claimed showed the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, not Israel, was responsible for the Gaza Baptist hospital massacre.
Their initial post was edited to remove the video, though they left up the same vague cover story.
Damning sound analysis from X user Lord Bebo (who has beat the New York Times to major stories) suggests the strike was most likely carried out by Israel with an extremely powerful US-supplied JDAM missile (the US announced just days ago they were sending Israel more JDAMs).

Israel Rejects Zelenskyy's Request for Official Visit
While the Ukrainian flag emoji's are still proudly displayed by the usual suspects (mostly on the left) all over Twitter, it just seems like nobody is talking about it anymore. On October 11th Axios reported that Ukrainian President Volodomyr Zelenskyy was looking to change that situation by requesting permission to visit Israel on an 'official visit', saying of his request:
" ...I urge all leaders to visit Israel and show their support for the people. I'm not talking about any institutions, but about support for the people who suffered from terrorist attacks and are dying today."

FBI's Wray Fear-Porns America Amid Hamas Attack and Open Border
Americans face a heightened threat from “lone wolf” terrorists inspired to replicate aspects of Hamas’ recent assault on Israel on US soil, FBI Director Christopher Wray told an audience of law enforcement officers at the International Association of Chiefs of Police Annual Conference in San Diego on Saturday.
Claiming there was “no question we’re seeing an increase in reported threats,” Wray warned his law enforcement colleagues, “We’ve got to be on the lookout, especially for lone actors who may take inspiration from recent events to commit violence of their own” – a reference to Hamas’ attack on Israel last Saturday.

Former Harvard President Feuds with University Over Response to Terrorism Against Israel
In several posts on X, Harvard President Emeritus Lawrence "Larry" Summers has been criticizing his former school’s disappointing response following Hamas’ terrorist attack against Israel over the course of the past few days.
"In nearly 50 years of @Harvard affiliation, I have never been as disillusioned and alienated as I am today," Summers began in a post Monday.
He continued, "The silence from Harvard’s leadership, so far, coupled with a vocal and widely reported student groups' statement blaming Israel solely, has allowed Harvard to appear at best neutral towards acts of terror against the Jewish state of Israel."
