This level of incompetence mixed with deliberate corruption is rife throughout USA. Most of it appears to be in Dem states which have drifted into woke emotionalism and concomitant corruption. The buck should have stopped at the governor’s office. At the national level, corruption is much the same, though much worse and more entrenched. All large organizations are susceptible to corruption and weak employees who dare not do the right thing. Many organizations can live a long time while burdened with parasites, but in the end, entire civilizations fall for these reasons. ABN
LONDON, Jan 22 (Reuters) – The U.S. is due to officially exit the World Health Organization on Thursday, in the face of warnings it will hit both U.S. health and global health and also in violation of a U.S. law that requires Washington to pay the U.N. health agency $260 million in fees that it owes.
President Donald Trump gave notice that the U.S. would quit the organization on the first day of his presidency in 2025, via an executive order. Under U.S. law, it has to give one-year notice and pay all outstanding fees before departure.
On Thursday, a U.S. State Department spokesperson said the WHO’s failure to contain, manage and share information had cost the U.S. trillions of dollars and the president had exercised his authority to pause the future transfer of any U.S. government funds, support, or resources to the WHO.
“The American people have paid more than enough to this organization and this economic hit is beyond a down payment on any financial obligations to the organization,” the spokesperson said by email.
Germany has a severe electricity shortage and cost problem, and it’s getting worse.
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz recently made the admission that shutting down the German nuclear power reactors was a “severe strategic mistake.”
“To have acceptable market prices for energy production again, we would have to permanently subsidize energy prices from the federal budget,” Merz said, adding: “We can’t do this in the long run.”
“So, we are now undertaking the most expensive energy transition in the entire world,” Merz said with pronounced frustration. “I know of no other country that makes things so expensive and difficult as Germany.”
Keep in mind, Germany represents the largest contributing economy in the European Union. The German industrial sector is the backbone of the European economic model.
All of these realities paint a very tenuous picture for the economic future in Europe, when combined with a new trade relationship with the USA, increasingly cheap goods dumped into the EU by China and the EU promising to continue spending on the war effort in Ukraine against Russia.
High-profile studies reporting the presence of microplastics throughout the human body have been thrown into doubt by scientists who say the discoveries are probably the result of contamination and false positives. One chemist called the concerns “a bombshell”.
Studies claiming to have revealed micro and nanoplastics in the brain, testes, placentas, arteries and elsewhere were reported by media across the world, including the Guardian. There is no doubt that plastic pollution of the natural world is ubiquitous, and present in the food and drink we consume and the air we breathe. But the health damage potentially caused by microplastics and the chemicals they contain is unclear, and an explosion of research has taken off in this area in recent years.
However, micro- and nanoplastic particles are tiny and at the limit of today’s analytical techniques, especially in human tissue. There is no suggestion of malpractice, but researchers told the Guardian of their concern that the race to publish results, in some cases by groups with limited analytical expertise, has led to rushed results and routine scientific checks sometimes being overlooked.
“My child underwent surgery for a throat hemangioma at Henan Provincial People’s Hospital. After the surgery, the child became vegetative, and then I discovered the child’s eyeballs were gone—they had been removed. Various departments in the hospital are altering the medical records… For profit, stealing and selling patients’ organs.”
The video details an alleged incident in Henan Province where a 9-year-old girl underwent throat surgery at a local hospital, emerged in a vegetative state, and had her eyeballs removed without consent, with hospital records reportedly altered to cover up suspected organ trafficking for profit.
The 24-second video features the girl’s mother recounting the events, hospital exterior shots, and the child in a bed with bandaged eyes, aligning with broader 2025 reports of a surge in Chinese organ harvesting claims, though this specific case lacks independent verification from major outlets.

As with all things in China, it is impossible to prove these allegations.
This story has been appearing in social media and is believed true by many Chinese commentators.
Grok has this to say about the case: This mother’s narration describes an unverified organ trafficking claim. Officially documented facts of the case involve only medical negligence and record tampering, not organ removal.
It is widely believed in China and around the world that illegal organ harvesting is practiced in China for sale to the wealthy and elite.
In Cambodia, Scam Compounds or Scam Parks have repeatedly been accused of organ harvesting. These compounds appear to be a major reason for the Thai-Cambodia conflict raging today.
The most chilling claims against Cambodian Scam Parks involve ‘baby-farming’, where young women are kidnapped and forced to bear IVF pregnancies, so their babies’ organs can be removed and sold. It is widely believed the CCP is running these compounds. ABN
The White House just published what Brussels has spent a decade censoring: Europe has shrunk from 25% of global GDP to 14%, is drifting toward “civilizational erasure,” and on its current course “will be unrecognizable in 20 years.” Not Russian intelligence. Not dissident analysts. Washington, in its own national strategy, marking the time of death.
Europe’s tragedy isn’t that it was defeated by an external force. Its tragedy is that it volunteered for collapse, mistaking moral vanity for strategy, self-harm for principle, and neocon applause for sovereignty. 19 rounds of sanctions meant to cripple Russia instead detonated inside Europe’s own chest cavity; industries fleeing, energy gutted, borders unmoored, farmers revolting, wages eroding, dissent criminalized under “values” crafted by technocrats who have never worked a real job, with utter contempt for Europeans.
And while Europe recited slogans, Russia built substance, built an economic juggernaut. The “gas station with nukes” they mocked is now the 4th largest economy on Earth by PPP, expanding faster than the entire European Union since the SMO began, reindustrializing, reorienting, rewiring Eurasia. The target of Europe’s crusade grew stronger, the crusaders grew poorer. This wasn’t irony. This was inevitability.
Now comes the most brutal line in the US strategy: the warning that some European states soon “may not be strong enough to remain reliable allies.” This is Washington stepping back from a burning house with the calm of an arsonist writing the incident report. The very patron that pushed Europe toward confrontation, long before Trump, is now drafting its alibi, framing Europe’s collapse as an unfortunate accident rather than the predictable consequence of policies its Deepstate encouraged and Brussels enforced with missionary zeal.
The EU won’t recognize the downloading of humiliation, because it arrived disguised as loyalty, and because the script being used to abandon the continent is the same script Europe still insists on performing.
A continent that once birthed Western civilization now prosecutes its citizens for speech, crushes its own farmers under riot shields, torches its industry for green dogma, and markets the whole spectacle as enlightenment. It surrendered its energy to ideology, its industry to Davos hallucinations, its security to America’s whims, and its future to compound interest. A civilization cannot live on abstractions, but its elites can, because they have engineered a system where the costs fall on the people and the graft float upward to those who never bear the consequences.
The NSS isn’t a strategy. It’s a confession in plain sight; Russia absorbed the blow, recalibrated, and rose; Europe dissolved into the very illusions it mistook for strength, while Washington, already preparing the next chapter, quietly wipes its hands of the consequences.
The deep, largely unrecognized, source of Europe and the West’s precipitous decline is we have been infiltrated by hostile, violent gangs which have taken over all Western high-ground.
All of our institutions have been infiltrated and turned against us.
All of them.
Consider what backward Somali gangs were able to do in just a few decades.
Had they not been caught, consider the wealth and power they would have amassed and held.
That was their motive.
Then consider gangs in the past who have quietly infiltrated the West and taken over.
Consider the payoff for their bold plan:
Immense power and wealth, control of all major Western institutions, the power to mind-control and lead Western peoples to their deaths.
That was and still is their motive.
But they are smarter than the Somalis.
Not only have they not been caught, they convinced us to pay for our own execution.
Many do not fully understand this because they are so soft and weak they refuse to contemplate the clandestine violence that has been waged for many generations against talented Western young people.
Why young people?
Because the smartest ones can be identified early and lobotomized, poisoned or maimed before they become adults.
This allows those young victims to live and cause despair and resignation in their communities, but renders them incapable of fighting back or understanding what has happened to them.
It is close to impossible to catch the poisoners and lobotomizers in the act. After one roofie, a lobotomy takes but a few minutes to perform.
And a goon can be trained to do it.
The deed can be done tens of thousands of times per year throughout the West, and very few will notice the pattern.
Put on your ruthless warrior hat and realize the deep reason the West is falling so fast.
It’s not just due to ideas, pathological altruism, the nepotism of our enemies.
The bombshell report, written by an alliance of active-duty and retired agents who railed against former president Joe Biden‘s DEI policies, described the FBI as ‘a rudderless ship’ and ‘all f**ked up’ under Patel.
Barely six months into the job, Patel has already been mired in controversy over his use of a government jet to visit his country singer girlfriend, Alexis Wilkins, and his astonishing decision to assign a SWAT team to protect her.
The damaging new dossier, obtained by the New York Post’s Miranda Devine, detailed an embarrassing tantrum Patel allegedly threw after the assassination of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk.
Patel reportedly flew into Provo, Utah, on September 11, the day after the killing, and refused to ‘disembark from the plane without an FBI raid jacket.’
He did not have his own and was so concerned about the optics that he pulled Salt Lake City FBI field agents from the investigation and ordered them to find him medium-sized outerwear.
They eventually tracked down one he could wear but it belonged to a female agent.
Patel was reportedly fuming when he received the jacket and erupted when he noticed ‘two areas on the upper sleeves did not have Velcro patches attached’, and still refused to step off the plane.
