‘I don’t know why she said nothing as DOJ did Russiagate, false FISA warrants, cartoonish overprosecution of J6ers, Mar-a-Lago raid, refusing to enforce border laws’ — Mollie Hemmingway

NeverTrumpers are praising Danielle Sassoon for resigning from the DOJ’s Southern District New York rather than comply with the new DOJ policy against weaponized investigations and prosecutions. Usually they emphasize her affiliations … a few quick thoughts… 

1) if you do not want to comply with a policy, the right thing to do is resign. I don’t know why she said nothing as DOJ did Russiagate, false FISA warrants, cartoonish overprosecution of J6ers, Mar-a-Lago raid, refusing to enforce border laws, etc. but nevertheless, if she wanted to continue what had been deemed a political prosecution, she can resign.

Louisiana Dept Of Health ‘Will No Longer Promote Mass Vaccination’

Following Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s confirmation as the secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS), the Louisiana Department of Health (LDH) confirmed that it “will no longer promote mass vaccination.”

The announcement by the LDH was sent out as an internal memo — ordering staff to end all media campaigns and promotions to encourage vaccinations.

“The State of Louisiana and LDH have historically promoted vaccines for vaccine preventable illnesses through our parish health units, community health fairs, partnerships and media campaigns,” wrote Louisiana’s Surgeon General Ralph Abraham.

“While we encourage each patient to discuss the risks and benefits of vaccination with their provider, LDH will no longer promote mass vaccination,” the memo continued.

The LDH also released a public statement, vowing to restore the public’s trust in the healthcare system following the previous COVID-19 mandates and lockdowns.

“For much of the last century, public health has taken it upon itself to fill the gaps in our broken healthcare system – providing guidance, information, and health recommendations. But when we get it wrong and overreach, the harm is often irreparable. Trust is built over years and lost in seconds, and we’re still rebuilding from the COVID missteps,” the announcement read.

Very good news. Covid proved we the people are smarter than government bureaucrats and that free speech is better than government restricted speech. I hope everyone who lived through that era will always remember how much free speech and free choice in medicine matters. ABN

Silk Road merchants may have introduced cats to China 1400 years ago

…an analysis of the largest ever collection of ancient cat bones in China—reported this month on the preprint server bioRxiv—suggests housecats may have arrived in the country around 600 C.E., hundreds of years after they set paw in Europe. They appear to have been brought by merchants from the West, traveling along the famed Silk Road.

“It’s a knockout study,” says Melinda Zeder, an archaeozoologist at the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of Natural History who was not involved with the work. Cats recently became the most popular pet in urban China, and the new research helps clarify how they first got there, she says. “Tying them to the Silk Road is really boffo.”

Rate of marriages in China lowest since record keeping began in 1986, with cost of living and pushback against traditional gender roles contributing factors

Marriages in China plunged 20% to a record low in 2024 as young people resisted government efforts to convince them to settle down and have more babies.

Marriages in China dropped from 7.7m in 2023 to 6.1m last year, data from China’s civil affairs ministry showed. The figure was less than half the number registered in 2013, and the lowest since record keeping began in 1986.

The data also showed that 2.6 million couples filed for divorce in 2024, up 1.1% from the previous year.

Contagion teams spread poisons and also kill

__________

Not just for vaxxes but also for anything and everything that undermines USA. Poison, murder, sensory damage done in secret, psychosurgery. Different people see what is happening from different angles. Vaxxes are but one vector. This country has not been lost through ideas alone, as too many intellectuals believe. There has been and is massive real violence at many societal levels. The NSA should have the information that connects the perps. It is my hope that DOGE is ‘merely’ a foot in the door that will lead to full eradication of the parasite that has infested USA. ABN

U.S. deporting African and Asian migrants to Panama in diplomatic breakthrough

Washington — The U.S. is deporting unauthorized migrants from nations in Africa and Asia to Panama, a major diplomatic breakthrough for the Trump administration’s mass deportation efforts, internal federal documents obtained by CBS News show.

The ministry said Wednesday’s deportation flight included 119 deportees from Afghanistan, China, India, Iran, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Turkey, Uzbekistan and Vietnam. The costs of the deportations under the agreement will be covered by the U.S., the ministry added.

The U.S. has long had difficulty deporting migrants from Africa and Asia, due to the long distances involved in deportations to the Eastern Hemisphere and decisions by governments in those continents to limit or reject American deportations flights.

The flights also underscore how aggressively and quickly the Trump administration is moving to convince countries across the region to accept migrants who are difficult to deport, even though they are not citizens of their nations.

The governments of El Salvador and Guatemala have already agreed to accept migrant deportees from the U.S. who are not from their countries. El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele has even offered to accept and detain suspected members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua who are expelled from the U.S.

The Trump Doctrine

I have written about the Trump Doctrine for several years; however, as we enter this critical inflection moment perhaps a revisit is worthwhile to consider.

What you will notice from President Trump’s responses to questions during foreign leader engagements is the unique nature of his honesty.   In the most consequential of ways, President Trump is the most consequential foreign policy leader in generations.   We forget that during Trump’s first term in office, the headlines about North and South Korea were not about conflict, but rather about the possibility of unification on the Korean peninsula.

♦President Trump’s foreign policy approach brought North and South Korea together away from the table of conflict.  ♦President Trump’s foreign policy approach brought Serbia and Kosovo together away from the table of conflict.  ♦President Trump’s foreign policy rallied the Gulf Cooperation Council to stop Qatar’s support for Islamic extremists via the Muslim Brotherhood. ♦President Trump’s foreign policy brought Turkey and the Kurdish forces together away from war and conflict.  ♦President Trump’s foreign policy created a ceasefire to stop the bloodshed in Syria.  President Trump mediated a cessation of hostilities between India & Pakistan in the Kashmir region. ♦President Trump’s foreign policy brought Israel and the UAE together… and then Bahrain… and then Sudan in the Abraham Accords.

President Trump executes a unique doctrine of sorts, where national security is achieved by leveraging U.S. economic power. It is a fundamental shift in approaching both allies and adversaries; summarized within the oft repeated phrase: “economic security is national security.”

The Trump Doctrine using economics to achieve national security objectives and global peace is a fundamental paradigm shift.  Modern U.S. history provides no easy reference for the effective outcome.

President Trump doesn’t just represent an office or title, nor does he simply represent the majority of the American people; President Trump’s voice is the voice of every ordinary person, what the non-English speaking world defines as “simple people,” and he channels a global message from the majority to the top of the highest power structures.

[I highly recommend this article. It provides a clear summary of Trump’s politics and why they are the way they are; why he does what he does. ABN]
