National digital ID clears congressional hurdle amid fears it could be politically abused | Just The News

If digital identities are introduced in the U.S., which looks increasingly likely, they will be inextricably linked with financial services. Financial institutions, after all, are being encouraged to lead the way in the development of comprehensive digital identity solutions. Digital IDs, we're told, will become more critical as online and mobile banking becomes more popular.

Recent headlines make it easy to see why so many people, fearful of the enforcement of political/ideological conformity through financial control, are hesitant to embrace digital IDs.

The banking behemoth JP Morgan Chase recently cut ties with Kanye West, who now goes by the name Ye. While the bank's notification to him reportedly predates recent controversies involving the outspoken rapper and designer — he sported a White Lives Matter tee shirt and made remarks widely condemned as anti-Semitic — Ye appears to hold certain viewpoints that don't align with those held by the multinational's executives.

This ONE move by China proves Democrats don't REALLY care about climate change - TheBlaze

"We can pass the biggest climate bill ever, and it gets completely wiped out by one announcement by President Xi [Jinping] that nobody tells you about and we have absolutely no control over," Stu noted. "You are changing your life for that nonsense. It's all wiped out immediately, and this happens every few years. They announce these increases, we don't even look at them, and it wipes out everything that we're doing — all the trillions of dollars, all the money that we're spending."

"So, let me ask you, are you willing to send your son or daughter over to fight for something this flawed? Because ... in the winter, that's what they're going to say, 'it's because the people are starving. They're cold.' Well, you know what's making them starving and cold? Our policy on climate change," Glenn said.

Boom: Single Chip Can Transmit Twice The Throughput Of Entire Internet

This is a breakthrough of epic proportions as a single chip has set a new data transfer record of 1.8 Petabytes per second. One Petabyte is equal to 1,000 Terabytes, or roughly 500 billion pages of standard printed text. The entire Library of Congress could be transmitted 100 times in a single second. The implication for global digitization is inconceivable. ⁃ TN Editor

RNC Lawsuit: Google Sending GOP Emails To Spam Is 'Egregious'

The Republican National Committee sued Google on Friday in a California federal court, alleging the tech giant intentionally diverted millions of RNC emails to the spam folders of supporters and potential donors to throttle its political speech. The RNC’s lawsuit proves significant both factually and legally.

Marjorie Taylor Greene Swatted for 6th Time Last Night

As TGP reported back in August — popular conservative Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene was swatted at her home just after 1 AM in the morning.

“Swatting” is the action or practice of making a prank call to emergency services in an attempt to bring about the dispatch of a large number of armed police officers to a particular address.

This is a dangerous prank used by the American left against their political opponents. It is very dangerous because it could lead to a violent confrontation if the police are not aware of the situation.

Marjorie Taylor Greene has now been swatted numerous times since August.

Over a 1% a year drop in the percentage of the population that identifies as Christian in Canada. A 23.8% drop the last 20 years.

More Canadians than ever have no religious affiliation, census shows
Canadians are losing their religion at an unprecedented rate, with more than a third of the country reporting no religious affiliation in the latest census, Statistics Canada revealed Wednesday.

And while the latest tranche of data from the 2021 census shows the proportion of non-religious Canadians has more than doubled in the past 20 years — to 34.6 per cent, up from 16.5 per cent in 2001 — the share of the country who identify as Christian has shrunk. They made up 53.3 per cent of the population in 2021, down from 67.3 per cent in 2011 and 77.1 per cent in 2001.

On Glenn Beck's recent Wed night special he mentioned a recent survey demonstrating that actually practicing Christians, Muslims, and Jews combined (defined as attending on a once a month basis) is now at 48% here in the United States and in 2001 We were still at 70% of the country attending a religious meeting/ facility at least once a month. I had no idea that it had dropped so far in twenty years. This is why the left is now demonizing Christians. What we call practicing our faith they have termed radical, and the media gives them carte blanche time to carry that message.

Parents cannot 'dictate what their children are taught': School board's lawyer says parents outraged over district's transgender policy can 'choose to have your child attend elsewhere' - TheBlaze

At a New Jersey school board meeting last week, parents outraged over the district's transgender policy were told by the board's lawyer that it is not the right of the parents to determine the curriculum taught to their children at public schools, Fox News Digital reported.

Parents attending the Lawrence Township Board of Education meeting on October 19 expressed concern over controversial lessons and books with gender-questioning themes.

One of the books concerned parents criticized the district for was "Jacob's New Dress" by Ian Hoffman and Sarah Hoffman. The picture book for kindergartens tells the story of a young boy who enjoys playing dress-up and wants to wear a dress to school.

Parents confronted the district about encouraging fourth-grade students to question their gender with a lesson on the "gender snowperson." Students are asked to participate in a game where they can pretend to be any gender they choose, reported CentralJersey.com.

Fmr DOD Adviser: Biden to replace U.S. dollar with digital currency – One America News Network

“This is what I believe Section 4 of Biden’s order means for all Americans, the U.S. dollar will be made obsolete,” Rickards said. “Soon your cash will be confiscated or simply be worthless paper. The cash currency we have now will be replaced with a new programmable digital token but the truth is few from the deep state recognize Biden’s movement for what it really is. The digital dollar means Dems would be able to punish and contribution purchase or even social media comment that they don’t like.”

Millions Of Americans Assigned Secret 'Covid Decree Violation' Scores To Help Democrats Win Swing States

Over 100 million Americans were tracked from their cell phones and assigned “COVID-19 decree violation” scores throughout the Covid lockdowns.

PredictWise, a voter analytics firm, harvested location data from tens of millions of US cell phones and provided the data to Democrat campaigns and the Democrat National Committee to develop campaign ads targeting swing voters.

According to a PredictWise white paper, the firm harvested the data by surveilling “nearly two billion GPS [global positioning system] pings” to acquire “real-time, ultra-granular locations patterns.”

PredictWise assigned a Covid-19 decree score based on how much an individual adhered to lockdown restrictions and stayed home, “compliers” or disregarded quarantine measures and traveled away from their homes.

Activists Give Trans Minors Cash, Ubers To Get Away From Home

From coast to coast, transgender activists are working to push chemical castration and genital mutilation on minors at all costs. In September, California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed Senate Bill 107 into law, blocking officials from enforcing other states’ laws that hinder access to transgender medical procedures and drugs for minors.

Meanwhile, in Virginia, the Pride Liberation Project (PLP) is organizing resources to help confused minors whose parents are not supportive of their gender and/or sexual identity experimentation to run away from their homes to stay with a “queer-friendly” adult. The potential for predatory behavior with this initiative is alarming.

New studies find Omicron COVID boosters no better than original, contradicting feds' messaging | Just The News

Less than two months after the FDA used mouse data to give emergency use authorization to bivalent COVID-19 boosters, the real-world performance of the shots that target the ancestral strain and Omicron BA.4/5 subvariants is undermining the feds' one-size-fits-all messaging.

New preprint studies by researchers at Columbia University and Beth Israel Deaconness Medical Center, not yet peer-reviewed, found that the bivalents showed no meaningful improvement over the original monovalent boosters that targeted the Wuhan strain alone.

The scriptures say the the secret combination will fall into their own trap. I think this is an example of that happening now. They thought they could just change all these things, cheat all the people, steal from all us, and that no one would see what they are doing, but they are wrong and people are seeing through their lies. I hope I'm right.

Virginia Students Spend Spanish Class Identifying Their Privilege

What the teens got instead of a normal tutorial in Spanish was a surprise lesson on “Identidad,” or “Identity,” with students handed a two-page worksheet created by the University of Michigan’s Program on Intergroup Relations. It included a list of “Social Identity Groups,” not teaching the students about Spanish-language communities, but probing personal, intrusive, and even shaming questions right off a Buzzword Bingo card in identity politics, and asking them to pen their self-identities into a “Social Identity Wheel.”

Bye-bye trucks? California air regulators to consider phasing out diesel big rigs | Just The News

The California Air Resources Board held its first public hearing this week to receive feedback from the public on the proposal, which the board will likely consider in Spring 2023.

If adopted, all new medium and heavy-duty vehicles sold in the Golden State will be required to be zero-emission by 2040. Additionally, the proposal outlines a phased approach to adding zero-emission vehicles to certain fleets at the state and federal levels.

Child Euthanasia Without Parental Consent? Canada Is Considering Just That - The New American

In 2017, we learned of the sad case of Charlie Gard, an infant born with a rare and severe genetic disorder. Even though his parents had raised the money for an experimental treatment overseas, British authorities refused to release the boy to his mom and dad, saying he deserved to “die with dignity.”

It was only the very next year that we heard about how a U.K. medical journal considered, positively, the “ethics” of actual child euthanasia without parental consent. And now, because ideas influence and “progress” marches on, it’s reported that this very idea is being studied by a Canadian parliamentary committee, a step toward it becoming law.

'Woke doctrine': Virginia mom slams anti-Second Amendment school assignment for advancing a 'political agenda' - TheBlaze

A Fairfax County, Virginia, parent expressed concerns about a recent anti-Second Amendment persuasive essay sample assigned to fifth graders, Fox News Digital reported Monday.

Darcey Geissler, a family law attorney and mother of six, told the news outlet that the school assignment was "a poorly written, factually and legally inaccurate 'essay,' written by an adult parading as a child, being used to once again advance a political agenda."

The essay, which made a case for banning firearms nationwide, was assigned to fifth-grade students. The assignment asked students to analyze the piece from a "neutral perspective" and determine whether it made a convincing argument.

A spokesperson for Fairfax County Public Schools told Fox News Digital that the assignment was a part of a "persuasive writing fifth-grade unit."

The essay argued that Americans do not need to own firearms because "guns cause violence" and "most people live in urban areas where they don't need to hunt."

Video: People get inverted cross symbols on foreheads, recite 'Hail Satan' during 'unbaptism' ritual at Pagan Pride Fest - TheBlaze

Self-professed Satanists, heathens, atheists, spiritualists and so-called "other'd folk" joined forces Saturday to "reclaim" a Texas city center from Christians.

Although the event's organizer Raynie Castañeda claimed the second annual Pagan Pride Fest in Tyler was "not satanic," it nevertheless saw droves of people pay to renounce their religious beliefs and hail the devil.

'Not doing anything satanic'
"We're just hanging out," Castañeda told the Tyler Morning Telegraph. "There's kids trick-or-treating, people getting their faces painted ... We're not doing anything satanic or any crazy rituals. We're just existing."

According to an event listing, the aim of the festival was to "gather & celebrate ourselves in the center of town, on our Good Old Square, which has historically been the place of our town's atrocities against BIPOC, LGBTQ+, Pagans, and any non-Christian folk. We reclaim this space in Honour of Ourselves, or our Gods, or our Ancestors,"

Promotional material indicated the event celebrated "ANY Pagan, Heathen, Satanist, Atheist, Spiritualist, any 'Other'd' folk who just don't know."

Feds coordinated with Big Tech to censor social media, met with companies 'monthly' in lead-up to 2020 election: Report - TheBlaze

A new, explosive report from the Intercept indicates that, in recent years, federal agents, especially those in the Department of Homeland Security, have closely coordinated with Big Tech firms to police online speech and to censor what they deem to be "misinformation, disinformation, and malinformation." The report indicates that this federal regulation of online content may have even affected the outcome of the 2020 election.

In their co-authored piece, Ken Klippenstein and Lee Fang analyze "[y]ears of internal DHS memos, emails, and documents" to determine the extent to which federal agencies have pressured social media companies to censor information and speech that may reflect poorly on the U.S. government.

Their conclusions are startling. According to DHS meeting minutes from last March regarding the FBI's Foreign Influence Task Force, established to investigate whether Russian influence had interfered with the 2016 presidential election, 80 task force members have been assigned to combat "subversive data utilized to drive a wedge between the populace and the government."

I had a feeling that Elon was too good to be true.

Elon Musk Wears Costume With Baphomet And Inverted Cross for Halloween

Elon Musk has been receiving a lot of praise lately for liberating Twitter but he has some major explaining to do.

Before attending Heidi Klum’s Halloween party, Musk took to Twitter to show off his Halloween costume.

His costume quickly garnered many users’ attention due to the fact he wore red leather body armor that was decorated with a giant Baphomet that had an inverted cross on its forehead.
