Over the past month, Israel, the world’s most heavily vaccinated country (with leading mRNA jabs, no less) has seen the number of positive COVID tests has risen by more than 30x as the number of active infections in the country has surpassed 10K.

In the 1960s and early 1970s political and social battles were fought by people who were trying to reshape America. Sixty years later, we are still at war.

My guests on this week’s WhoWhatWhy podcast, David and Margaret Talbot, label that war the Second American Revolution. The issues revolved around armed conflict abroad (Vietnam), civil rights, feminism, gay rights, Native American rights, workers rights, and the role of celebrities in the political process. 

Les citoyens américains n’en tirent aucun avantage, mais subissent au contraire de grandes pertes, d’une guerre sans fin au Moyen-Orient. Mais leurs intérêts ne sont pas pris en compte dans les décisions d’un Washington bipartisan.

One would have to forgive the American worker for feeling under siege lately. Statistics show that lower-paid workers lost the most jobs during the pandemic. Nearly half of American workers have suffered mental health issues since the start of the pandemic.

An international coalition of medical professionals together with journalists, musicians, artists, and others, have established World Ivermectin Day this Saturday, July 24 2021, with the aim of sharing the evidence-based message that the cheap, safe and easily distributed medicine ivermectin can remove the fear of the covid pandemic to lives and economies.

House Democrats on Tuesday blocked a GOP bill which would require the Director of National Intelligence to declassify information related to the US government’s investigations into the Wuhan coronavirus pandemic – and in particular, what role the Wuhan Institute of Virology may have played in the outbreak.

The bill failed in the House by a vote of 216 – 207.

During an otherwise routine hearing before the Senate, Sen. Rand Paul and Dr. Anthony Fauci clashed once again over whether President Biden’s top COVID advisor had lied to Congress when he insisted back in May that the NIH hadn’t finance gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (Dr. Fauci also furiously pushed back on the assertion that COVID-19 may have leaked from the lab, before suddenly changing his tune).

Update (1250ET): To borrow a phrase popularized by millennials, Sen. Rand Paul has found “the receipts” apparently proving that Dr. Fauci lied about the NIH financing “gain of function” research for bat coronaviruses at the Wuhan Institue of Virology.

MIT biologist Kevin Esvelt reviewed this paper that was published with financial assistance from Dr. Fauci’s NIH/NIAID and concluded “certain techniques that the researchers used seemed to meet the definition of gain-of-function”

A consortium of investors led by the Soros Economic Development Fund (SEDF) and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation are buying UK-based COVID testing company, Mologic, which has developed a 10-minute coronavirus test – and is best known for its deep-nostril swab test for the virus.

As analysts blamed the delta variant for Monday’s market ructions, Dr. Anthony Fauci said in an interview that the variant is increasingly becoming the “dominant” strain in the US, while he continued to share data about the efficacy of American-made vaccines despite the growing evidence that the efficacy they provide against Delta is much lower than some believe.

Dr. Fauci said that while vaccinated people are “generally protected”, the efficacy of the jab is only 93% to 94%.

As Ed Snowden warned in a tweet when the story broke this weekend, “this leak is going to be the story of the year.”

This story by Liz Kimbrough originally appeared in Mongabay and is republished here as part of Covering Climate Now, a global journalism collaboration strengthening coverage of the climate story.

Tour à tour calomnié et ignoré, le journaliste Julian Assange ne bénéficie pas du large mouvement de solidarité que son statut de prisonnier politique et de héros de la liberté de la presse aurait dû faire naître. Dans quelle mesure les médias peuvent-ils être tenus pour responsables de la relative indifférence face à la persécution du fondateur de WikiLeaks par Washington ? Pour Fabienne Sintes de France Inter, les causes du manque d’intérêt ne sont pas à chercher de ce côté-là.

Lots of people are complaining about billionaires playing astronaut. That’s understandable… but also very short-sighted. Instead of vilifying them, we should view the desire of the uber-rich to fling themselves into space as an opportunity that could solve many of society’s problems.

Dr. Robert Malone, a pioneer in the field of mRNA vaccines, shared a viral Twitter thread on Friday which lays out a disturbing trend; the most-vaccinated countries in the world are experiencing  a surge in COVID-19 cases, while the least-vaccinated countries are not.

“This is worrying me quite a bit,” tweeted Malone, embedding the lengthy thread authored by Twitter user @holmenkollin (Corona Realism) via the ‘thread reader’ app.

In one way, Donald Trump is a typical ex-president, in that he is in desperate need of cash. Harry Truman lived on a modest Army pension; Bill Clinton left the White House areported $16 million in debt — mostly legal bills racked up during the Monica Lewinsky scandal. 

In a “pandemic of the unvaccinated,” Republican-leaning states dominate the COVID-19 dishonor roll. Florida alone accounts for 20 percent of new infections.

As the world awaits the trial of Jeffrey Epstein ‘madame’ Ghislaine Maxwell, the Daily Mail reported Friday – citing information revealed in a forthcoming podcast – that President Bill Clinton flew on Epstein’s “Lolita Express” (the private jet belonging to the deceased billionaire and convicted pedophile) during a trip to Taiwan, Japan and China. At some point during the trip, Clinton and Ghislaine were joined by billionaire Ted Waitt.

South African President Cyril Ramaphosa said Friday the riotous looting that transformed parts of the country into a warzone was planned, and his “government would not allow anarchy, mayhem” to continue as 25,000 troops have begun to deploy.

“It is quite clear that all these incidents of unrest and looting were instigated, there were people who planned it and coordinated it,” Ramaphosa said.

Haiti is a vibrant country. It’s also a nation that regularly suffers the horrors of kidnappings, murders, and corruption, a country where gangs are more powerful than the police and military. Its citizens repeatedly have reached for democracy, only to see their efforts fail — often with the complicity of the United States — and their options for the future narrow.

Update (1352ET): Oddly, right as Senate President Karen Fann suggested that auditors may not be able to determine whether a ballot had been duplicated once, or ten times, YouTube pulled the feed we had originally embedded, claiming it violated their Terms of Service.

The Arizona Senate is holding a public briefing with leaders of the ongoing election audit authorized by Senate President Karen Fann.

In the past seven days, South Africa has never come closer to becoming a failed state. The riotous looting has reduced Gauteng and KwaZulu-Natal, the two provinces hit hard by the social unrest into what resembles warzones. The country quickly descended into what could be the beginning innings of a civil war, prompting the government to call up military reserves and seek deployment of up to 25,000 troops to quell the violence.

Democratic traditions like voting and the free press don’t make for good fairy tales. They’re too complex and messy. (The seven dwarfs don’t get to vote on whether to let some random lady invade their homosocial commune; the handsome king doesn’t just wave handsomely while parliament throws chairs.) So when we do get a story that pits good versus evil, the media gobbles it up. Good story, easily told.

En avril, j’ai averti que les politiques monétaires et budgétaires actuelles, extrêmement souples, une fois combinées à un certain nombre de chocs d’offre négatifs, peuvent se traduire par une stagflation du style des années 1970 (une inflation élevée combinée à une récession). En fait, le risque est encore plus grand à l’heure actuelle.
