Guangzhou, the capital of China’s southwestern Guangdong Province and the country’s fifth largest city with nearly 15 million residents, has just joined the ranks of cities imposing a mandatory lockdown on all citizens, effectively trapping residents inside their homes, with only limited permission to venture into the outside world to buy essential supplies.

Fully one-third of news consumers admit to distrusting the sources from which they get their news. That’s according to a recent study by RAND Corporation, based on a survey of 2,543 Americans. What’s shifted in terms of consumer demand to create this situation?

À contre-courant de l’histoire officielle des colonisateurs, cette fresque percutante raconte, du point de vue des colonisés, cent cinquante ans de combat contre la domination. Ce deuxième épisode, de 1927 à 1954, est celui de l’affrontement, de l’Algérie à l’Inde, en passant par les figures de Hô Chi Minh, futur vainqueur de Diên Biên Phu, ou de Wambui Waiyaki, intrépide jeune recrue des Mau-Mau.

Two days after the caucus, the fiasco in Iowa continues. On Monday, Shadow, the app the Democratic Party was relying on to count votes, crashed, leaving all sides angry at the incompetence and the confusion it caused. Nevertheless, with no precincts reporting, South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg declared victory. Bernie Sanders’ team believed the Vermont senator held around a five-point lead over Buttigieg in the popular vote. However, two days later the two are neck-and-neck, with ten pledged delegates each, both receiving over a quarter of the vote share.

1. L’apprentissage

The Daily Pennsylvanian interviewed Zhexuan Huang, a college sophomore studying at the University of Pennsylvania, has been trapped in Wuhan, China, for the last several weeks.

Huang told the daily student newspaper at the college that he hasn’t left his home in weeks and has been forced to take a semester off.

À la Bourse de New York…

The first person from Britain to catch coronavirus in Wuhan claims he refused antibiotics and beat the deadly infection with “an old fashioned remedy.”

“It’s an old fashioned remedy but it seemed to do the trick. I did refuse to take the antibiotics the doctors prescribed me because I didn’t want to take any medicines,” he told The Sun.

Meanwhile, a rare direct clash between Turkish and Syrian armies has left scores of soldiers dead and wounded.

US Farm Bankruptcies Hit an Eight-Year High (Mili)

The author writes, “U.S. farm bankruptcy rates jumped 20% in 2019 — to an eight-year high — as financial woes in the U.S. agricultural economy continued in spite of massive federal bail-out funding, according to federal court data.

It appears that around the time we suggested someone reach out to the Wuhan Institute of Virology to get some answers about the origin of the deadly Coronavirus epidemic (which Twitter decided was sufficient to get us barred from the platform), India was doing just that.

President Trump has advanced an evil longstanding agenda of America’s depraved intelligence and defense agencies, so as usual the QAnon cult is out in force telling everyone not to worry because this is all part of the plan.

Les modèles du Met Office suggèrent qu’un nouveau record de chaleur est probable dans les 5 prochaines années. Prises individuellement, les années allant de 2020 à 2024 devraient évoluer dans une fourchette comprise entre +1,06°C et +1,62°C au-dessus de la période préindustrielle. Il y aurait donc largement de quoi faire tomber le record de 2016.

While humanity battles a growing number of ecological disasters, the push for lower greenhouse gas emissions has struggled to gain traction.

In the face of the unlikely reversal of long held traditions and habits, researchers have been pursuing alternative methods for cooling the global temperature. One of these methods is known as geoengineering, or the deliberate mass manipulation of the climate. The controversial science is being touted as a potential “backup plan” should humanity fail to lower carbon emissions by two degrees.

The big winner of tomorrow’s Iowa caucuses isn’t running for president. At least not yet. In fact, that wouldn’t even be allowed … after all, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) won’t be old enough to seek the presidency until 2024.

That’s convenient, because, unless President Donald Trump wins reelection and completely dismantles the Constitution, there will be a presidential election that year.

Senior Huffington Post UK editor Chris York has published what is by my count his twelfth smear piece against a small group of academics and independent journalists who’ve expressed skepticism of establishment Syria narratives.

LONDON – During the recent UK general election, a key attack line for the Labour party was to cast Prime Minister Boris Johnson as the lapdog of Donald Trump. Johnson, if elected, would be a pliant English poodle to the pit-bull-in-chief and would roll over obediently in post-Brexit US-UK trade negotiations, warned Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn.

Reading Time: < 1minute Donald Trump’s impeachment trial not only exposed the president’s wrongdoing, but also the twisted hypocrisy of Ken Starr, Alan Dershowitz, and others.
