Intel Gets $20 Billion in U.S. Grants, Loans for Chip Plants

March 20th, 2024

Via: Bloomberg:

The US will award Intel Corp. $8.5 billion in grants and as much as $11 billion in loans to help fund an expansion of its semiconductor factories, marking the largest award from a program designed to reinvigorate the domestic chip industry.

The package will support more than $100 billion in US investments from Intel, including efforts to produce cutting-edge semiconductors at large-scale plants in Arizona and Ohio, the Commerce Department announced Wednesday. The money also will help pay for equipment research and development and advanced packaging projects at smaller facilities in Oregon and New Mexico.


“NYC Is Finished”

March 20th, 2024

I was last in Manhattan in 1998, maybe before this guy was born, and it was a shithole back then. The whole time I was there, I was thinking, “This can’t continue for much longer.”

Wrong.

It keeps staggering on. Somehow.

I doubt there’s any limit to what New Yorkers will tolerate.

Jared Kushner: ‘Very Valuable’ Potential of Gaza’s ‘Waterfront Property’

March 20th, 2024

This isn’t satire.

Via: AP:

Jared Kushner, Donald Trump’s former White House adviser and his son-in-law, praised the “very valuable” potential of Gaza’s “waterfront property,” suggesting that Israel should remove civilians while it “cleans up” the area.

“It’s a little bit of an unfortunate situation there, but I think from Israel’s perspective, I would do my best to move the people out and then clean it up,” Kushner added. “But I don’t think that Israel has stated that they don’t want the people to move back there afterwards.”


Records Show CIA Deployed Bomb Techs, Dog Teams to DC on January 6

March 20th, 2024

Via: Judicial Watch:

Judicial Watch announced today it received 88 pages of Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) records from the Department of Justice in a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit that show the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) deployed personnel to Washington, DC, on January 6, 2021.

Judicial Watch forced the release of the records through a June 5, 2023, lawsuit that was filed after the Justice Department failed to respond to an August 10, 2023, FOIA request for records and communications regarding shots being fired inside the U.S. Capitol, as well as requests for Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) Special Response Team assistance on January 6, 2021 (Judicial Watch Inc. v U.S. Department of Justice (No. 1:23-cv-01608)).

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) records include a series of text messages under the heading “January 7 Intel Chain” in which two separate references to participation by the CIA are made. One states that “two CIA bomb techs” are assisting with “a pipe bomb scene on New Jersey and D ST SE.” Another references “several CIA dog teams on standby.”

CARCOSA: Secret Pentagon Program Echoes Pedophile Ring in “True Detective” Series

March 19th, 2024

Via: The Intercept:

The Pentagon is pursuing a high-tech program that will “minimize cognitive burden” on soldiers, according to budget documents released last week. The $40 million-plus classified program, codenamed “CARCOSA,” shares the same name as “the temple” in the first season of the HBO TV series “True Detective,” a place where an elite pedophile ring performs ritual abuse on children.

The program is overseen by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, or DARPA, the Pentagon’s premier organization funding the development of futuristic weapons and military capabilities.

There is of course no evidence that the military’s CARCOSA is involved in anything like that; but it’s unclear why, at a time when the White House has prioritized fighting “dangerous conspiracy theories,” DARPA is providing the conspiracy crowd with such fodder. The Intercept reached out to DARPA to inquire whether the elite research agency was aware of the strange coincidence or whether there’s a “True Detective” fan at the agency. DARPA did not respond at the time of publication.


Excess Mortality Still Correlated With COVID Vaccination Rate – Dec 2023 Data

March 19th, 2024

Via: Igor Chudov:

What happened in December 2023 allows us to ask: Could vaccination rates affect excess mortality rates a long time after vaccinations? December 2023 was 2.5 years after people received their first doses, so looking at the data for that month could help us answer that question.

Sadly, data from last December shows a strong positive correlation between excess mortality and Covid vaccination rates, despite most first doses given out long ago, 2.5 years before that month.

We were told that COVID-19 vaccines protect us from severe illness and death. Therefore, we are supposed to expect countries that gave their citizens more COVID-19 vaccines to fare better.

Those who still believe such assertions may be surprised: in December 2023, like during many recent periods, more Covid vaccines meant greater excess deaths.


Woman Sues National Park Service After Being Told She Can’t Use Cash to Pay Entry Fee

March 18th, 2024

Via: The Defender:

When Elizabeth Dasburg asked in an email how she could enter the Fort Pulaski National Monument in Georgia if she had only cash, she was told that the site, part of the U.S. National Park Service, could accept cards only.

An employee suggested she go to the local grocery store or “big chains like Walmart” to purchase a gift card. “Since those are cards, we can accept them in leu [sic] of cash,” the site employee wrote.

Dasburg and two others were told the parks they wanted to visit couldn’t accept cash to pay the entrance fee on Wednesday sued the National Park Service, challenging its cashless fee collection policy.

In a complaint filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, the plaintiffs allege the federal agency is violating U.S. law by refusing to accept U.S. currency as entry payment.

According to the complaint, federal statute (U.S. Code Title 31, Section 5103) makes it clear that “United States coins and currency … are legal tender for all debts, public charges, taxes, and dues.”

U.S. currency is essentially “demonetized” when the National Park Service “erodes the dollar’s status as U.S. legal tender,” Flores said.

Catherine Austin Fitts — former federal housing commissioner at the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and publisher of the “Solari Report” — told The Defender, “This lawsuit goes at the very heart of the war to preserve cash, and with it, our human and health freedoms.”

“Removing cash from circulation,” she said, “is an essential step to implementing a complete surveillance state that can shut off our money at will — as we saw happen to the Canadian Truckers — or take our assets and grab our land.”

Flores agreed. “Cashless is a key component — if not the lynchpin — of the surveillance state.”
