FEMA’S FAILURE AFTER HELENE AND MEDIA DENIAL
Hurricane Helene is the most devastating storm yet to hit Florida and Southeastern Coastal states like Georgia and the Carolinas, especially in terms of flood damage and deaths—now at least 250 people and climbing. And, they haven’t even found all the bodies yet, many of which are found only by following the smell of death. I watched NBC News last night trying to debunk all the criticism of FEMA by Donald Trump and others, and it was an obvious whitewash of very real problems. NBC claimed it was false that VP Harris said that FEMA was only offering $750/person in aid. That’s true in the sense that there are other forms of aid available, but the fact remains that without power those hit hardest are having trouble accessing any aid at all. During the first week of Helene, when aid was really needed, thousands of social media posts by victims of these storms saying FEMA is “nowhere to be found,” tells the real story. Currently, a week after the storm, aid shipments of food and water are finally arriving, and so is the National Guard, but most people still aren’t seeing any tangible aid or the return of electrical power. Meanwhile Hurricane Milton is striking Florida, bringing with it deadly tornados and more flooding.

Israel's Supply Of Interceptor Missiles Under Strain Amid Daily Assaults
stimated to have an arsenal of hundreds of thousands of rockets and drones of various sizes. Israel's formidable anti-air defense systems have been regularly engaging inbound threats, sometimes expending hundreds of interceptors a day - and this was particularly true during the Oct.1st Iranian ballistic missile attack. Israel has long heavily relied on the United States to supply it with heavy artillery, bombs, and missiles - but now appears to be running low on interceptors amid the daily firefights.

NYT Lies To Downplay 'Racist' Kamala Plagiarism Scandal - So Chris Rufo Brings Receipts
2. The Times claims that "none of the passages in question took the ideas or thoughts of another writer." This is preposterous. Harris not only copied multiple paragraphs of other people's work verbatim, but she often lifted those ideas directly and at face value. In one case, she came to the wrong conclusion because she copied Wikipedia—i.e., she stole a bad idea, copied the language verbatim, and got the point wrong. This is the Full Monty of plagiarism. The Times's claim doesn't hold up at all; it's just a way of downplaying the transgression of Kamala Harris, as they tried to do initially with Harvard president Claudine Gay. Their claim is not supported by the evidence:

Hurricane Response Proves Volunteerism is Better Than Authoritarianism
Following Hurricane Helene, many private helicopter pilots launched their own search and rescue missions. One would think government officials would welcome the help of these volunteers, but instead they harassed them and even threatened to arrest them! For example, one private helicopter pilot rescued an individual stranded by Helene. Unfortunately, he was threatened with arrest if he flew his helicopter back into the impacted area to save someone left behind on the earlier flight.
LEAKED AUDIO: Gov. Katie Hobbs admits 148,000 illegal aliens without citizenship registered to vote in Arizona
“When this goes public, it is going to have all of the conspiracy theorists in the globe – in the world – coming back to re-litigate the past three elections, at least in Arizona,” Hobbs said in the call. “And it’s going to validate all of their theories about illegal voting in our elections, even though we all know that’s not true.” The trio mentioned that the total number of registered illegal alien voters in Arizona is around 148,000, though they all agreed to trim that number to around 98,000 to make the problem seem less serious than it is.

The U.S. Government Is Dramatically Expanding The Use Of Facial Recognition Technology
Do you want to live in a society where you are required to have your face scanned wherever you go? If not, you may want to speak up now while you still can. As you will see below, the U.S. government is aggressively expanding the use of facial recognition technology for identification verification purposes. For now, the use of facial recognition technology will be optional. But as we have seen before, once a voluntary option is adopted by enough people our leaders have a way of making it mandatory. Of course it isn’t just our government that is pushing facial recognition technology. It is popping up throughout our society, and given enough time it would literally be everywhere.
Ukraine's Kursk Incursion Enters Third Month, Has Become 'Normalized'
"They keep trying to advance but the gains are incremental, somewhere they manage to take a street in the village," he continued. "But it goes both ways – we also counterattack and push them back." While it's unclear how many troops Ukraine has committed to holding the region, international reports have estimated Russia has sent some 40,000 of its own forces to take it back. Russia has used both conscripts and reservists, but has not appeared to divert large numbers from front line Ukraine positions in Donetsk.
Body Of Top IRGC General Finally Recovered In Beirut After 2 Weeks
A high-ranking Iranian military officer who was considered a "key figure" that oversaw Tehran's support to the 'resistance axis' abroad was slain in the Israeli airstrike which killed Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah on September 27 in south Beirut. Iran had soon after the Israeli attack confirmed the death the IRGC's #2, Brigadier General Abbas Nilforoushan. But his body had not been found even long after Nasrallah's remains were recovered. Iran's government had vowed that his killing "will not go unanswered."

Today’s CPI Report is a Psychological Operation Designed to Dumb You Down While the Banking System Steals Your Money Through Inflation
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) for September came out today hotter than expected up 0.3% for the month for a ‘year-over-year’ (YoY) of 3.3% general increase in consumer prices according to the ‘official’ report. John Williams of ShadowStats has a different take on the matter. His work on the economic numbers shows that ‘real’ inflation (the way the CPI was calculated prior to 1980) was consistently higher-about 9% higher than the way CPI numbers are calculated in 2024. So what Mr. Williams calls the ‘alternative’ rate of inflation (that we all actually live in) is actually -much higher.
