This Week in the World Affairs Brief

CHILDHOOD VACCINES AND LONG-TERM HEALTH PROBLEMS

Finally, a long term medical study comparing vaccinated children with un-vaccinated children reveals that children that received the recommended vaccine schedule during their childhood have a documented higher risk of long-term debilitating health problems, especially auto-immune diseases. The un-vaccinated control group had no higher risk of these diseases at all–none. The trouble is, this study done at a major hospital system that treats children and its huge database of statistical proof, will never be published. Its contents have leaked out, but because it puts vaccines in the dangerous light they belong, no doctor or scientist will put their name to it for fear of professional retaliation that follows anyone who criticizes the sacred cow of childhood vaccines. This week, I’ll cover Del Bigtree’s blockbuster documentary about this “Inconvenient Study,” which will never see the light of day except in alternative media. But it’s the only way you will find about this evidence about dangerous childhood vaccines. After watching this video, you will probably never feel confident about vaccine claims about being “safe and effective” again. In fact, you’ll be outraged at the lie those two claims represent.

Mamdani Announces City-Run Grocery Stores Will Offer 30% Discount. Critics Say It Will Crush Local Businesses.

The Daily Signal

“Grocery stores operate with 1-2% profit margins already so taxpayers will have to subsidize 30% discounts on groceries,” CNBC anchor Sara Eisen wrote on X. “It also threatens to shut down local markets and bodegas (and reduce access to food), because they have to compete with the city stores, while also paying commercial rent and earning profits.” Peter St. Onge, an economist at The Heritage Foundation, wrote on X that if the government-owned stores set their prices 30% below retail value then the city would lose “at least 28 cents on the dollar.”

Bombing Campaign In Search Of A Strategy: Pentagon Offers Trump Two-Week 'Go Bigger' Plan In Iran

"We are choosing escalation when de-escalation remains an option, entrenching ourselves deeper into a broader war that we don’t have the capability or desire to sustain," he explained, adding: "There is not a military solution here that will lead to a win. More bombing will not convince Iran to open the SOH or to give us the deal we want, it will only harden their position."

Doug Casey on the Surveillance State Quietly Taking Shape Across America

Doug Casey

Cameras are ubiquitous today. They’re in most stores. They’re on streets in every city and town recording your license plate and often looking to tag you with a speeding ticket. If you have a late-model car, its cameras and computer chips will rat you out upon request. If you knock on your neighbor’s door, a camera is probably recording you. When you travel, almost all immigration authorities recognize your face in addition to taking digital fingerprints.

China Scoffs At Iran Arms Transfer Report, After Trump Pours Cold Water On Allegation

ZeroHedge

China has given its response on Thursday to a prior Reuters investigation which strongly alleged that Beijing is preparing to transfer up to 400 Chinese-made shoulder-fired air-defense missile launchers MANPADS to Iran. The Reuters report was highly specific, even identifying the Hong Kong-based company that facilitated the signing of the arms deal between the Iranians and Chinese, but Beijing has rejected the report as a lie and 'groundless', saying there's no truth to it.

Biden's Pardon Can't Protect Fauci From Legal Consequences

ZeroHedge

I will invoke my right under the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution to refrain from answering your questions." And so he did, an estimated 111 times, but it won't protect him completely. On Jan. 20, 2025, his last day in office, Biden granted Fauci a full and unconditional pardon covering any offenses he may have "committed or taken part in" tied to his government roles between Jan. 1, 2014, and Jan. 19, 2025. The broad preemptive pardon Joe Biden handed him on the way out the door covers federal charges alone, and it leaves him exposed to the state charges that may arrive sooner than his lawyers expected.

Fragile Iran 'Pause' Shattered As US Base In Jordan Comes Under Attack, Oil Soars

ZeroHedge

Oil soars on reports of Iran targeting US Jordan base; Iraqi militants attack KSA for 2nd day. Hormuz indirect talks continue amid reports of a possible resurrected MoU deal. Shipping remains stalled with virtually no tanker traffic through Hormuz. Iran insists Hormuz stays closed unless its terms are accepted. Houthis escalate attacks, prompting more ships to avoid the Red Sea.

Bombshell Report Exposes Lefty NGOs Funding A Children's Charity Tied To Terror Network

ZeroHedge

After years of pro-Hamas protests and riots, including efforts by radical-left revolutionaries to blockade highways, bridges, and other economic chokepoints, as well as unrest across Ivy League campuses, investigators are finally examining the financial infrastructure behind the Marxist movement that increasingly appears less about Palestine and more about toppling the US empire.

DOJ Sues Colorado For Offering In-State Tuition Aid To Illegal Immigrants

The Epoch Times

The July 23 lawsuit, filed with the District Court for the District of Colorado, accused Colorado of ignoring Title 8 of the U.S. Code Section 1623, which bans illegal immigrants from being eligible for post-secondary education benefits in a state unless the same benefits are provided to all U.S. citizens, irrespective of their state of residence.

The Fair Share Myth and Other Socialist Fables

Jonathan Turley

The fair share myth is a virtual mantra among socialist and Democratic leaders, from Mamdani to Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) to Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.). In my book, “Rage and the Republic,” I address the false claim that the wealthy are not “paying their fair share.” In fact, the top 10 percent already pay more taxes than the bottom 90 percent combined.

Trump Ready For 'Strong Military Action' If Talks Fail, With Saudi Aramco Under Houthi Fire

ZeroHedge

Trump pauses strikes: Trump said the US paused attacks to give diplomacy a chance but warned military action will resume if talks fail. Iran denies that it pushed for talks: Tehran denied any direct negotiations with Washington, while saying its response remains "attack for attack." Saudi Aramco targeted: Houthis claimed fresh strikes on Saudi Aramco facilities, with reports of fires at the critical Abqaiq oil processing complex. Fragile pause holds two days: The US-Iran military pause entered a second day as mediators continued backchannel efforts to revive negotiations.

Deep State Voter Fraud Fight to the Death – Alex Newman

USA Watchdog

Without voter fraud, Deep State Democrats lose and lose big in the midterms. They are fighting every way they can to keep the cheating going. The Trump Administration is threatening fines and jail time if the Dems in Blue States “Refuse to Cooperate to Secure Elections.” It is so bad that Harvard PhD and political expert Dr. Jerome Corsi says President Trump must “Stop Voter Fraud or Lose the Republic.” The fight is going to get much more intense and violent before the midterm elections in November. Alex Newman says, “Voter integrity is one of the arenas where this fight to the death is taking place. We are going to determine in the not-so-distant future if the Deep State and those who hate America and our Constitutional Republic are going to control the most powerful military and most powerful economy in the world, or are ‘We the People’ going to exert control over the government we created to protect our liberties? It will be a fight to the death. There is no option these two can end up with control of the government. We have a long fight ahead.”

US Military Forced To Let Some Iranian Projectiles Through Its Defenses: NBC

ZeroHedge

The Iranian attacks particularly on US bases in Jordan have been especially fierce of late. Also there are ongoing concerns of dwindling anti-air defense missiles in the Gulf and the region. Fresh weekend NBC news reporting has highlighted these growing problems, and has gone so far as to say that US commanders are having to ration Patriot missiles.

Flashback: Fauci Funded Technique To Hide Evidence Of Genetic Engineering According To RFK Jr.

ZeroHedge

With Fauci's personal diaries now public, Tulsi Gabbard's last-day document dump on the record, Ralph Baric stripped of his NIH grants and placed on leave by UNC, and Fauci himself scheduled to appear under subpoena before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee this Wednesday at 8:30 a.m., Kennedy's remarks are worth revisiting. Here's what he said: "He [Fauci] funded Ralph Baric to develop a technique called seamless ligation. And that is a technique for hiding the engineering project."

Trump Pursues Diplomatic Off-Ramp As Omani Delegation Arrives In Tehran: Report

ZeroHedge

Trump's order to hold fire was given several hours after an Omani delegation arrived in Tehran Friday for talks on a new arrangement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Two regional sources with knowledge of the negotiations said progress has been made in the talks and that an agreement between Oman and Iran could be reached over the weekend. More color: Trump's decision reflects both his willingness to provide more space for diplomacy and a recognition that — short of a return to major combat operations — the current level of U.S. strikes has reached the limit of its effectiveness. If Trump orders a return to strikes, the U.S. military can mobilize on relatively short notice. The U.S. military is still preparing plans for a possible return to major combat operations, but Trump hasn't given orders to move in that direction, the sources said.

Smokey skies does not mean global warming

American Thinker

every inhabited continent is running below its recent average for area burned this year, with Africa, the Americas, and Europe at record lows. Those are remarkable statistics. They don't mean wildfires have disappeared or that smoke isn't a serious public health concern. They simply demonstrate that the broader wildfire picture is very different from the one often portrayed in daily news reports.

US Bombing Campaign Effectiveness In Doubt As Iranians Rebuild At Rapid Pace

ZeroHedge

Everything from roads to bridges to tunnel entrances have also be restored at surprising speeds, which also suggests the US bombings have had a rallying effect among civic workers and the broader population in support of the nation and the government. WSJ offers but one example as follows: "Near Kangavar, in western Iran, satellite imagery from Planet Labs in March showed two tunnel entrances and an access road damaged by airstrikes aimed at blocking access to an Iranian missile base. Within weeks, imagery from Airbus revealed a neatly paved road leading to freshly excavated entrances."

Yet Another Wildberries Facility - Russia's Amazon - Goes Up In Flames After Ukraine Drone Strike

ZeroHedge

NBC News has noted, "Wildberries, whose banking arm had sanctions imposed on it by the European Union this week over its financial contribution to the Russian budget, plays a central role in Russia’s consumer economy." "Its targeting by Ukraine appears to be part of Kyiv’s attempts to ensure ordinary Russians feel the impact of the war which has raged on Ukrainian territory for more than four years," the report adds.

The United Nations Has Run Out Of Alibis

The Epoch Times

Institutions built to prevent atrocities eventually face the question of what they actually protect. For the United Nations, voting patterns, internal investigations and its own decisions this year no longer support the fiction of neutrality. An UNRWA school in Gaza sat above a Hamas tunnel shaft and three anti-tank positions, and its own principal was on the payroll of both institutions at once - a fact that American investigators, not the UN, brought to light.
