Centuries-old whaling logs are filling gaps in our climate knowledge
Whalers from the 18th and 19th centuries are helping 21st Century scientists on climate change. A little after 7:30 in the morning on Wednesday, December 7, 1887, in the aftermath of remarkably strong northeasterly winds, Captain William A. Martin instructed the crew of the Eunice H. Adams, a whaling ship from Massachusetts, to anchor in cerulean water roughly 24 feet deep, close to Port Royal, South Carolina. Around 9 a.m., Charles Hamilton, a desperate crew member, jumped overboard — deserting his post, with the intention of swimming to land. He was intercepted mid-route by another ship, which returned him to the leaking brig he had tried to escape. Later that day, an act of near-mutiny occurred. According to the ship's logbook, a signed letter from the majority of the crew was sent ashore to Port Royal authorities. In it, the men complained that the vessel they sailed on was "unseaworthy," unhappy with the unplanned stop and delay for repairs merely months into their voyage, in...

Leftist elites nervous as white suburban women run back into GOP's arms
Heading down the stretch of the 2022 midterm elections, white suburban women - who comprise 20% of the nation's electorate - are swinging back to Republicans in a big way. A new Wall Street Journal poll finds that white women in the suburbs now favor Republican congressional candidates by a whopping 15% margin -- a jaw-dropping 27-percentage-point move just since August. The shift has largely been fueled by the group's deepening concerns over inflation and the economy. About 54% say the country is already in a recession while 74% say the economy is heading in the wrong direction. Those numbers are up August readings of 43% and 59%, respectively.

Fauci seething over 'terrible' booster uptake, blames 'lies and misinformation'
Speaking at an awards ceremony over the weekend, retiring government bureaucrat Anthony Fauci expressed his dismay over the fact that Americans seem entirely uninterested in getting the latest Pfizer and Moderna booster shots. "We have a COVID vaccine and a booster that is matched very well to the circulating virus and yet only about 15% of people who have been vaccinated have gotten the boost, that is terrible," Fauci raged, like a pharma rep who failed to meet his sales quota. "We've got to do better than that." In total, only about 7% of all Americans have taken the new shot, according to the CDC.

Robert Epstein: Google is shifting votes on a massive scale, but a solution is at hand
My research team is currently monitoring online political content being sent to voters in swing states through more than 2,500 computers owned by a politically-diverse group of registered voters (our "field agents"), and we are concerned about what we're seeing. We are aggregating and analyzing search results on the Google and Bing search engines, messages displayed on Google's home page, autoplay videos suggested on YouTube, tweets sent to users by the Twitter company (as opposed to tweets sent by other users), email suppression on Gmail, and more. We have so far preserved more than 1.9 million "ephemeral experiences" - exposure to short-lived content that impacts people and then disappears, leaving no trace - that Google and other companies are able to use to shift opinions and voting preferences, and we expect to have captured more than 2.5 million by Election Day.

Australian researchers uncover massive anti-Russian 'bot army'
An Australian university has unearthed millions of Tweets by fake 'bot' accounts pushing disinformation on the Ukraine war. A team of researchers at the University of Adelaide have found that as many as 80 percent of tweets about the 2022 Russia-Ukraine invasion in its early weeks were part of a covert propaganda campaign originating from automated fake "bot" accounts. An anti-Russia propaganda campaign originating from a "bot army" of phony automated Twitter accounts flooded the internet at the start of the war. The research shows that of the more than 5 million tweets studied, 90.2 percent (both bot and non-bot) came from accounts that were pro-Ukraine, with fewer than 7 percent of the accounts being classed as pro-Russian.

Twitter advertiser boycott organized by dark money Soros, Clinton, and foreign networks
The campaign to pull corporate advertising from Twitter, following its purchase by SpaceX founder Elon Musk, is being led by a network of left wing dark money activists with ties to prominent Democrat politicians and mega donors. The Dossier is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber. An advocacy group formed in 2020 called Accountable Tech is organizing the pressure campaign, which has thus far succeeded in having the likes of Pfizer, Audi, General Mills, and other corporations pull their advertising expenditures from the platform. Accountable Tech has taken credit for organizing an "open letter" signed by dozens of progressive groups, which demanded that multinational corporations cease advertising with Twitter immediately.

Did the former Soviet Union experience what awaits Europe
I have come across another book that I recommend you get and read. It is Alex Krainer's, Grand Deception: The Browder Hoax. I was floored by the information he presented in the chapter, The Enterprise. Krainer's exposition of what happened to Russians in the wake of the collapse of the Soviet Union-the mass rape of a country by economic elites in the United States and Europe. Once you comprehend what the Russian people endured in terms of economic privation and the economic miracle that unfolded under the leadership of Vladimir Putin, you will appreciate that Putin is not a heartless thug clinging to power by using fear, intimidation and coercion. The horror described by Krainer is on par with the Holodomor experienced by Ukrainians at the hand of Stalin in the 1930s-an estimated 4 million Ukrainians starved to death because of Stalin's policy while "Russia sustained between five and six million "surplus deaths" - deaths that couldn't be explained by previous population trends."...

Algeria wants to join BRICS, other countries expected to join are Argentina, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Iran
Algeria has reportedly filed an official application to join the BRICS group of major emerging economies. News website Al-Shouruk said the announcement came from Leila Zerrouki, the Foreign Ministry's special envoy for international partnerships, speaking on state radio. Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune recently said the country was interested in joining Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa in the BRICS group, explaining that the country largely meets the criteria for membership. Later, Russian Ambassador to Algeria Valeryan Shuvaev indicated that Moscow had no objections to Algeria joining.

Midterm elections and the pathetic Democratic pantheon
Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and Nancy Pelosi are of no use to the Left in the midterms because it is their radical ideology that was finally enacted and wrecked the country. Over the last few months the four icons of the Democratic Party — Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and Nancy Pelosi — have hit the campaign trail. They've weighed in on everything from "right-wing violence" and "election denialists" to the now tired "un-American" semi-fascist MAGA voter — and had nothing much to say about inflation, the border, crime, energy, or the Afghanistan debacle. In this, they remind us just how impoverished and calcified is this left-wing pantheon. So why should we take anything they say seriously, given their own records — and especially given their mastery of projecting their own shortcomings upon others as some sort of private exculpation or preemptive political strategy?

The one-world religion on full display as fake 'faith leaders' join globalist predators to push Earth worship at U.N. COP 27 conference
Climate hysteria, i.e. Earth worship, is a key component of the coming one-world religion and we're seeing it on full display in Egypt this week at the United Nations COP 27 climate conference. The COP 27 logo says it all. The logo depicts the African sun (above) and embracing the ancient Egyptian Aten's sun (below), which implies giving rise to a new horizon (new world order). All of the global crises unleashed upon the earth since March 2020 have been aimed at one thing - depopulation. For more on this, see my Oct. 25 article in which climate activist Dennis Meadows clearly explains in a video that the climate "crisis" can never be solved without drastic population reduction. The globalists' plan calls for riding the wave of fear created by various global crises all the way to a new world order, or as they now call it, a Great Reset. They wish to restructure and re-order all human activity on earth, from the way we socialize and work to the way we worship — and who/what we...

Pennsylvania is on the verge of a midterm meltdown
Just in time for the midterm elections, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court issued a major victory for election integrity and the rule of law. The court ruled that Commonwealth election officials must follow the law and not count mail-in ballots with missing or incorrect dates on their protective envelopes. That's a welcome relief, but left-wing groups are already back in court fighting to block it. It's a striking reminder that Pennsylvania remains precariously close to a midterm meltdown with national consequences. After all, the outcome of the Keystone state's tightly contested senate race carries huge ramifications for control of the upper chamber of Congress. But antiquated procedures and weak safeguards continue to leave Pennsylvania's election process vulnerable to delays, confusion, mischief and ponderous litigation that could drag the results out for weeks — or longer.

War of words in Italy over Ukraine aid
Italy's government has traded barbs with the opposition over weapons shipments for Kiev, after a massive demonstration in Rome over the weekend called for peace and diplomacy in Ukraine. Former PM Giuseppe Conte said that shirking political debate on Ukraine aid would be bullying democracy itself, in response to Defense Minister Guido Crosetto labelling him a "neighborhood bully." Conte, who leads the Five Star Movement (M5S), addressed tens of thousands of Italians who rallied against the war on Saturday, telling them the new government's approach is "leading only to escalation." Now that Ukraine is "fully armed," Italy needs to push for a ceasefire and peace talks, he said.

Zelensky sets out conditions for talks with Moscow
Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky on Monday called on world powers "to force Russia into real peace negotiations," and set out his own conditions for resuming talks. His remarks follow reports that US officials have been pushing Ukraine to show willingness to engage in dialogue with Moscow. "Once again: restoration of territorial integrity, respect for the UN Charter, compensation for all war damage, punishment of every war criminal, and guarantees that this will not happen again. These are completely understandable conditions," he said in a video address. American media earlier claimed the White House was privately asking top Ukrainian officials to show it was open to peace talks. The Washington Post reported, citing its sources, that the US goal was not to push Ukraine to negotiate an end to the fighting, but to alleviate foreign backers' concerns about a long conflict.

Protesters block Pakistan's capital following attempted assassination of former PM Imran Khan
Supporters of former Pakistani prime minister Imran Khan blocked roads near Islamabad on Tuesday, disrupting traffic and forcing schools to close. Police documents are thought to have recorded that a lone gunman attempted to kill Khan last week, while Khan claims there was a conspiracy involving two would-be assassins. Video footage filmed on Monday and Tuesday showed supporters of Khan's Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf party bringing chairs onto highways outside the Pakistani capital, as other groups of demonstrators staged similar sit-down protests inside the city. Banners featuring Khan's likeness were held aloft by his supporters and hung from bridges. The protests forced a number of schools to close, Reuters reported on Tuesday.

Banners featuring Khan's likeness were held aloft by his supporters and hung from bridges. The protests forced a number of schools to close, Reuters reported on Tuesday.

SOTT FOCUS: SOTT Earth Changes Summary - October 2022: Extreme Weather, Planetary Upheaval, Meteor Fireballs
Record rains and devastating floods hit at least 19 countries across West and Central Africa killing thousands and displacing tens of thousands. Over one million acres of cropland have been destroyed worsening the burgeoning hunger crisis. This has been considered one of the deadliest disasters in the region. "The rainfall this year is exceptional. There have been sustained rains since the beginning of the season, since August, September, and even until October now, it continues to rain," said Kousoumna Libaa, a climate specialist. Nigeria experienced its worst floods in a decade, taking the lives of at least 600, while tens of thousands of livestock were lost to the waters and waterborne diseases. 18 of Nigeria's 36 states were affected. In Cameroon, flood waters caused significant damage in the northern region, destroying crops and houses, and Chad's government declared a state of emergency after the floods affected more than 1 million people. Some farmers have lost close to 75%...

What's really going on? China declares more covid outbreaks, locks down regions
New coronavirus cases surged in Guangzhou and other Chinese cities, official data showed on Tuesday, with the global manufacturing hub becoming China's latest COVID1-9 epicentre and testing the city's ability to avoid a Shanghai-style lockdown. Nationwide, new locally transmitted infections climbed to 7,475 on Nov. 7, according to China's health authority, up from 5,496 the day before and the highest since May 1. Guangzhou accounted for nearly a third of the new infections. The increase was modest by global standards but significant for China, where outbreaks are quickly tackled when they surface. Comment: SOTT radio's Joe Quinn recently commented on China's otherwise inexplicable 'zero Covid' response: The above reasoning also explains why China is willing to risk some civil unrest over a virus that's now widely been accepted - even by the hystericised West - to be little more than a bad flu.

AWARE II Near Death study presentation at AHA 2022
Someone very kindly provided me with a copy of the slides from Sunday's presentation. They sent them to me because I have a Ph.D. and I work in research therefore I will respect the sender's request that they only be presented in an academic context and I will not post any of the actual slides on here, or supply copies. That being said much of the key bits of data can be found in the abstract that Z posted the following link to: Link to AHA 2022 AWARE II abstract Now to the presentation. The background looks at the physiological factors around death and resuscitation, and has a slide on the pig study. It then looks at the different types of experience that are recalled, and also the psychological impact of these experiences. The historically low percentage of visual recollections is highlighted and he uses AWARE I as a source of evidence for this. He then moves on to the study itself. Firstly he states 3 specific hypotheses related to Near Death Experiences: Consciousness and...
