Harrowing news details have emerged of the extreme punishments meted out in North Korea, including prisoners beaten to death with a hammer, a pregnant woman executed, and a farm manager shot after angering Kim Jong Un.
In some of the most shocking cases, inmates were killed in secret ‘indoor executions’ using blunt weapons, while defectors said they witnessed the shooting of minors despite official claims such punishments are banned.
A manager was also executed after all the baby terrapins at a state-run farm died, with sources saying he was shot dead shortly after Kim berated officials during a visit.
The disturbing accounts are laid bare in a new report by Transitional Justice Working Group, which maps executions across the secretive state and reveals how killings surged during the Covid pandemic.
Images included in the report reveal the scale of the killings, showing suspected execution sites across North Korea including firing ranges near airports, football pitches and also in remote fields.
A research team including scientists and engineers from University of Colorado Boulder, University of Colorado Anschutz and Colorado State University has developed a suite of new therapies that prompt aging or damaged joints to repair themselves within weeks, according to animal studies.
The new osteoarthritis treatments include a single, regenerative injection to a joint and a biomaterial repair kit that recruits the body’s own cells to patch holes in damaged cartilage.
To expedite the research, the federal Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) announced this week that the multidisciplinary team will advance to the next phase of the up to $33.5 million project. The project is under the ARPA-H Novel Innovations for Tissue Regeneration in Osteoarthritis (NITRO) program. NITRO is led by ARPA-H Program Manager Dr. Ross Uhrich.
“In two years, we were able to go from a moonshot idea to developing these therapies to demonstrating that they reverse osteoarthritis in animals,” said principal investigator Stephanie Bryant, professor of chemical and biological engineering at CU Boulder. “Our goal is not just to treat pain and halt progression, but to end this disease.”
THE BALLROOM Trump is building a 90,000 square foot ballroom with a 1,000 person capacity. Hardly adequate for the White House Correspondents Dinner which was attended by 2,600 people. But we’re told that we need the ballroom in order to host events like the WHCD in the future. Bullsh*t.
COST & LOCATION The cost has ballooned to over $300-$400 million. We’re told it’s being privately funded and being sold on that as being a good thing that won’t cost the taxpayers. Here’s the reality: private funding means no congressional oversight or appropriations, no budget hearings, no public scrutiny.
Furthermore, when infrastructure is part of the Executive Office of the President at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave, it can be CLASSIFIED under “executive privilege.” The entire executive branch will be able to run this data center without oversight or checks & balances.
…LEAD ARCHITECT Shalom Baranes, a jewish immigrant to the US via the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society (HIAS), has been appointed architect. Previously, Baranes was the architect for the post-911 hardening & rebuilding of a little building called the Pentagon. SCIFs, bomb-proofing, compartmentalization, etc.—the whole 9 yards. Baranes has no expertise designing ballrooms, that I could find. But he did help renovate one at the National Red Cross Headquarters once. Besides his renovation of Pentagon Wedges 2-5, he’s also done the U.S. Treasury Building modernization, and the Department of the Interior Headquarters & GSA National Headquarters renovations. It seems his talents center around building secure federal infrastructure, not event halls.
…CONCLUSION They’re building a Stargate Command bunker under the ballroom, and they need us to buy the ballroom narrative bullsh*t in order to gin up public support to ram this through against the opposition it’s currently facing.
This facility will most likely be the nerve center hub of the new “national security” Palantir spy infrastructure and digital control grid panopticon. In short, an essential facility to continue helping to enslave us, and putting any oversight by WE THE PEOPLE beyond our control. For israel’s benefit, and the jewish global empire-national security state blob.
I don’t think so. I’m America First & Only, and israel/ballroom LAST.
You can create fiber inside food that didn’t have it before. The trigger is temperature.
When starch is cooked, the chains unfold and digest fast. When it cools, the chains realign into crystals that resist digestion. Your gut bacteria ferment them into short-chain fatty acids including butyrate. The FDA classifies this retrograded starch as dietary fiber.
Sonia 2015 measured the shift in white rice. Resistant starch more than doubled when rice was cooked, refrigerated 24 hours at 4°C, then reheated (0.64 → 1.65 g per 100g). In 15 healthy adults, the cooled-and-reheated rice produced a meaningfully lower glucose response than fresh rice.
Larder 2018 found cooled potatoes had up to 114% more resistant starch after extended cooling. Hodges 2019 showed reheated pasta produced a smaller glucose spike than hot pasta. Cool your rice, potato, or pasta overnight. Reheat. The fiber you create survives.
I have only watched the short clip above, but approve of what he is saying and so am posting the full video as well. I may comment later after having watched the long version. People everywhere, but especially in the West, must learn cultural, anthropological and religious information as it really is and not see it only through the idealistic lenses of Western fantasy. ABN
A former director of a secret US government psychic program claims every person has the hidden ability to tap into what he describes as the infinite consciousness of the universe.
Dale Graff, who led the CIA’s Project Stargate, a secret US military program that trained individuals to mentally perceive distant locations from the early 1970s until 1995, a technique known as remote viewing- the alleged psychic ability to perceive hidden, distant, or future information, places, or objects using only the mind, without physical senses.
‘We all have the potential to develop and use our natural psi ability,’ Graff said.
Psi refers to alleged psychic abilities such as sensing distant places, anticipating future events, or accessing information beyond traditional senses.
‘The keys lie in accepting the possibility of your psi nature, following a consistent approach to exercising that talent, and seeking ways to apply,’ he added.
Despite remote viewing being discontinued by the US government, Graff remains a passionate advocate for what he describes as the benefits of developing psychic awareness.
‘I discovered that by exploring our psychic realm, we automatically become more creative and intuitive. We sense deeper aspects of our psyche. As we uncover our psychic talents, we can help others in ways that would not be possible otherwise,’ he wrote.
Gödel’s Incompleteness Theorems demonstrate that any sufficiently powerful formal system contains truths that cannot be proven from within the system, implying that complete understanding requires a perspective outside the system.
In philosophical and theological interpretations, this limitation is often mapped to the distinction between immanent knowledge (within the system) and transcendent awareness (outside the system).
1. The Structural Limitation
Internal Incompleteness: Gödel proved that a system cannot prove its own consistency or grasp all its own truths; there are always statements that are true but unprovable within the system’s axioms.
The “Outside” Perspective: To comprehend the complete picture or verify the system’s consistency, one must step outside the logical framework, accessing a higher order of intelligibility or a “super axiom.”
2. Application to Buddhist Epistemology
Samsara vs. Nibbāna: In this analogy, the “system” represents Samsara (the cycle of existence and conventional logic), while the “outside” represents Nibbāna (the unconditioned state).
Transcendent Awareness: A being within the system (a sentient being) cannot cognize the ultimate truth of the system from within. Only by transcending the system—achieving Arahanthood or Buddhahood—can one “see things as they are” from the outside.
Greater vs. Lesser: Consequently, the “lesser” cognition (bound by internal logical limits and dualistic perception) cannot fully comprehend the “greater” transcendent awareness (which encompasses the total system from a non-dual, external vantage point).
3. Philosophical Implications
Limits of Human Reason: This aligns with the view that human reason and formal logic are inherently limited and cannot grasp ultimate reality without intuitive or transcendent insight.
God and the Super Axiom: Similarly, in theological interpretations, Gödel’s work suggests the existence of a higher intelligence (God) or “super axiom” that exists outside the created system, sustaining it from a position of complete knowledge that finite beings cannot access internally.
Thus, Gödel’s logic provides a formal mathematical basis for the idea that ultimate truth is inaccessible to the system itself, requiring a transcendent standpoint for full comprehension.
I would add that FIML practice allows us to step outside of the psycholinguistic system we use to communicate with our partner, and others. There is some chance FIML partners could become lost in a folie à deux, or shared psychosis, but odds of this are very low, imo, especially if partners frequently refer to philosophies, thoughts, ideas, and evidence outside of their world as a couple. FIML provides a kind of parallax for both partners psycholinguistic systems as well as the two systems working together as one. FIML cannot completely solve the inherent ambiguousness of interpersonal communication but it can improve our understanding (or resolution1) of our communications by at least one order of magnitude, or more.

I remember similar figures from even earlier in 2020, I believe from a WHO analysis. These were the odds then and afterward. It was lethal hospital protocols, normal human stress responses to the panic, the banning of all treatments except in hospital, and then the mRNA vaxxes which caused the large ‘covid’ death and injury toll. Even if the vaxxes had worked, you can see that almost no one needed them, and definitely no one in the younger age groups. The entire plandemic was a totalitarian psyop to seize power and probably to kill, harm or render impotent large numbers of people. Historically, elites have frequently controlled their populations by limiting their access to healthy foods, by spying on them and killing those who might threaten them. It has ever been thus. ABN
