What Is John Brennan So Worried About?: Ray McGovern, Consortium news
Trump has fired the Secretary of Defense Mark Esper. He needs to fire Gina Haspel at the CIA, which could happen this week. He also needs to fire Paul Nakasone at the NSA. If he then declassifies Russiagate information, he will blow the lid off of the deep state.
Blast from the past: "Florida Legislature calls special session to name presidential electors": CNN from December 6, 2000
Most people don't remember this, even if they were aware of it in the first place, but in December 2000 the Florida state legislature was poised to reject the election results and appoint a slate of electors. If there is a preponderance of evidence that voter fraud was widespread and decisive, Republican dominated legislatures in these swing states could do just that.

Earlier in August, Nasrallah cautioned that Israel would pay the price if it turns out the Jewish state was behind the deadly 4 August Beirut blast, reportedly caused by the improper storage of more than 2,700 tonnes of ammonium nitrate.
When Exactly Did the AngloZionist Empire Collapse?: The Saker from the Unz Review
I was asking myself that question the other day when I suddenly realized that I might have determined the exact moment when the Empire collapsed: 8 January 2020. What happened that day? Following the murder of Major General Qasem Soleimani in a US drone attack (on the 3 of January 2020) the Iranians retaliated by using missiles to attack several US bases in Iraq. According to the US side, there were only minor injuries, which is very likely since the Iranians warned the US by several backdoor channels what they were planning on doing. This argument was used by Trump and his supporters to say that the Iranian reaction was lame, ineffective and could be completely ignored. In my opinion, the moment when the Trump Administration made this statement is when the death certificate of the Empire was signed. Why?

The Best High School in the Country May be Sacrificed to Diversity: Gregory Hood from the Unz Review
Demographic change has remade the Old Dominion. Once reliably conservative, Virginia is now a blue state. Non-white immigrants and white liberals moving to Northern Virginia (NOVA) lead this sea change. Arlington, once home to Robert E. Lee, and Alexandria, once a city that honored the Confederacy, are occupied territory. Liberal whites and Asians face a contradiction. NOVA residents are generally status-seeking and career oriented. From my experience, they have the luxury beliefs of a self-conscious elite. Unfortunately for them, egalitarianism has a logic of its own. If you preach it enough, eventually it will turn on you. Thus, we arrive at the current controversy about the Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology (TJHSST). It's not being renamed, though we can probably assume that's next. Instead, the school, ranked by US News as the best high school in the country, has eliminated its admissions test because not enough blacks and Hispanics can pass it. TJ, as it is called, was going to have an admissions "lottery" for students who had a 3.5 GPA or better, but the Fairfax County Schools Board did not approve that part of the plan. Still, that might just be a stay of execution. A proposed "Holistic Review" instead of a lottery might be even worse. So, for now, no one knows how TJ is going to select its students, but the old days of pure meritocracy are gone.
No Families, No Children, No Future: Rod Dreher from TAC
Here's a fascinating article from New York magazine on the massive gender gap between Trump and Biden supporters. It contains this eye-popping claim, buried deep down: Neither the societal shift away from traditional gender roles nor the downstream cultural consequences of that shift are anywhere near complete. As Rebecca Traister has incisively argued, the growing prevalence of singledom among America's rising generation of women is one of the most potent forces in contemporary politics. In 2009, for the first time in history, there were more unmarried women in the United States than married ones. And today, young women in the U.S. aren't just unprecedentedly single; they also appear to be unprecedentedly uninterested in heterosexuality: According to private polling shared with Intelligencer by Democratic data scientist David Shor, roughly 30 percent of American women under 25 identify as LGBT; for women over 60, that figure is less than 5 percent. David Shor is one of the best data people the Democratic Party people has. Take this seriously. Has anything like this ever happened to any society, ever? Three out of ten women under the age of 25 consider themselves to be gay or transgender. Five percent, sure. Maybe even eight percent. But thirty? Will they always think that? Maybe not, but these are their prime childbearing years. The US fertility rate is at a 35-year low, and there's no reason to think it will rise. Some critics blame structural difficulties in the US economy that make it harder for women to choose to have children, but European nations make it vastly easier for mothers, and still cannot get their fertility rates above replacement.

Immunity against coronavirus may be long-term, expert says: From TASS
ST. PETERSBURG, October 22. /TASS/. The novel coronavirus SARS CoV-2 is not a highly mutable one, so there are sufficient reasons to expect that immunity acquired as a result of vaccination or in a natural way will be long-term, the director of the St. Petersburg-based Research Institute of Epidemiology and Microbiology, Areg Totolyan, said in an interview on Thursday. "Annual vaccination against flu is required in view of the virus' high mutability, a quality not observed in SARS CoV-2. There are sufficient reasons to believe that the immunity acquired in a natural way, just as post-vaccination immunity is likely to last," Totolyan said.
