🇫🇷Exceptional storm floods streets in Antibes, France
Three weeks' worth of rain fell in just a few hours The town of Antibes Juan-les-Pins, in south-eastern France, flooded yesterday evening (February 3) after a storm brought three weeks' worth of rain in just four hours.
Locals took to social media to share images and videos of the continuous rainfall, lightning, and hailstones which caused streets to quickly fill with water, particularly in the west and centre of the town.
Some 86 litres of rain per square metre fell between 19:00 and 23:00 across the affected area in the Alpes-Maritimes department, reported La Chaine Météo.
The 'stationary' storm is said to have been caused by humid air rising from the Mediterranean.

The criminal elite exposed in the Epstein files are burying the truth
A handful of figures will be sacrificed - but only to protect a wider culture that believes rules don't apply to the. ruling elite If you struggle to cope with the endless pressure to communicate in an ever-more connected world, spare a thought for the late serial paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
The flood of three million documents released by the US Department of Justice over the weekend confirm that Epstein spent an inordinate amount of time corresponding with the huge network of powerful acquaintances he had developed.
Emailing alone looks to have been almost a full-time job for him - and in a real sense, it was.
The personal attention he devoted to billionaires, royalty, political leaders, statesmen, celebrities, academics and media elites was how he kept himself at the heart of this vast network of power.

Florida Freeze Batters Citrus Belt, Inflicts "Significant Damage" To Central Orange Groves
Floridians were once again warned this week to watch out for falling iguanas as an ultra-rare cold blast sent temperatures plunging to record lows of 22F in Jacksonville and 24F in Orlando.
Whenever Arctic air pours into The Sunshine State, its citrus industry inevitably takes a hit, and this deep freeze comes on top of years of damage from greening disease and repeated blows from tropical cyclones that have already decimated the crop.
"There was significant damage to the remaining oranges to be picked in central Florida," said Jim Roemer, a meteorologist who publishes the WeatherWealth newsletter, quoted by Bloomberg.
Roemer added, "Many key areas were well below 28 degrees for over four hours between Sunday and this morning."

FLASHBACK: Drowning death of crypto 'visionary' Nikolai Mushegian fuels conspiracy theories
A brilliant young cryptocurrency pioneer named Nikolai Mushegian tweeted on Oct. 28 that intelligence agencies were going to murder him — and was found dead on a Puerto Rico beach hours later.
"CIA and Mossad and pedo elite are running some kind of sex trafficking entrapment blackmail ring out of Puerto Rico and Caribbean islands," Mushegian, a developer of blockchain-based decentralized finance platforms who wanted to end global banking corruption, tweeted at 4:57 a.m.
"They are going to frame me with a laptop planted by my ex [girlfriend] who was a spy.
They will torture me to death." The 29-year-old then left his $6 million beach house in the luxe Condado area of San Juan, Puerto Rico, for a walk.

🇵🇸IDF Accepts Gaza Health Ministry Death Toll of Over 71,000 Palestinians Killed During the War
The IDF has accepted the estimate of the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry that approximately 71,000 Palestinians were killed during the Israel-Gaza war, noting that the number does not include missing residents who are potentially buried under rubble.
The IDF also said it is currently analyzing the data on the dead to see how many of them are combatants and how many are civilians.
According to the Gaza Health Ministry, 71,667 Gazans have been killed by IDF fire since the beginning of the war on October 7, 2023.
The Ministry's tally includes only those killed directly by Israeli military fire in its tracking, not people who died of starvation or from diseases exacerbated by the war.

UJ government is obsessed with making Britain's countryside 'less white'
Reports label green spaces as a "white environment" The British countryside is under siege from diversity mandates that aim to transform it into a "less white environment," with officials in areas of natural beauty like the Chilterns and Cotswolds pledging to draw in more ethnic minorities under Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (Defra) guidance.
This push stems from reports warning that rural spaces risk becoming "irrelevant" in a multicultural society, dominated by the "white middle class," prompting commitments to outreach, diverse staffing, and even dog control measures to make the outdoors more appealing.
The Telegraph reports that National Landscapes — formerly Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) — and local councils have adopted diversity targets following Defra-commissioned studies.

West under oligarchs - Part 2
Russia's experience in the 1990s was perhaps the most stark illustration of how nations fare with an unrestrained oligarchy, and how the pathology can be redressed simply and elegantly.
This is part 2 of a 2-part report.
Part 1 with the link to YouTube video covering both parts is at this link.
Russia under oligarchs In modern times, the full pathogenicity of oligarchic rule was exemplified in Russia during the 1990s.

Immigration czar Homan announces 700-agent drawdown as Minnesota counties begin cooperating with ICE
Border czar Tom Homan revealed moments ago at a press conference in Minneapolis that an unprecedented number of counties are now coordinating with federal authorities and allowing ICE to take custody of illegal aliens before they reach the streets.
As a result, Homan noted, fewer federal agents are needed in the metro area.
"We currently have an unprecedented number of [Minnesota] counties communicating with us now and allowing ICE to take custody of illegal aliens before they hit the streets," Homan said.
Homan continued, "I have announced that, effective immediately, we will draw down 700 people effective today. 700 law enforcement personnel."

America should eliminate the H-1B and replace it with this
Every time immigration comes up, it's painted as a choice of extremes.
Compassion or common sense?
No immigration or no rules?
That's a false choice — and it's one that benefits only the politicians who'd rather argue than govern.

Latest federal killing in Minnesota echoes Ruby Ridge
On Saturday, federal agents in Minneapolis killed protester Alex Pretti, shooting him in the back 10 times after they had taken away the pistol he legally carried.
White House Deputy Chief Stephen Miller quickly settled the issue: "A would-be assassin tried to murder federal law enforcement and the official Democrat account sides with the terrorists." A few hours after Pretti was killed, I commented on Twitter/X: "How many of the Trump supporters cheering the killing of the Minneapolis demonstrator today would also cheer for the FBI sniper killing Vicki Weaver in her cabin door at Ruby Ridge in 1992?" This outraged plenty of Trump supporters but the parallels between the federal killings in 1992 and on Saturday are striking.

🇺🇸🇮🇷Prediction with the main reasons: The US will bomb Iran to bring about a regime change
We've seen it repeatedly: You invent a pretext based on deliberate lies, fake news, exaggerations or a false flag operation which serves to construct a story that country or leader X is a threat to "us" which legitimates that we do a 'preemptive' strike against that - obviously invented - threat to eliminate it.
Mainstream media's task is to propagate the ploy, not to ask questions or reveal the lie.

🇺🇸The US has accused the EU of censorship: Here's how the bloc's consensus machine works
Brussels manufactured the Romanian election debacle and faces accusations of strangling the free speech of Europeans and Americans alike.
The Republican US House Judiciary Committee has published details of what it claims is a decade-long campaign by the European Commission to stifle online political speech, with barely-veiled threats used to stamp out memes, satire, and anything Brussels calls "disinformation." In a report published on Tuesday, the committee accused the EU of "directly infringing" on the free speech rights of Americans and Europeans alike by pressuring major social media platforms into censoring legal but "hateful" or otherwise problematic content.

Lavrov weighs in on 'Deep State' narrative and Western political deceit
A dishonest mindset now prevails among European leaders, Sergey Lavrov has told RT in an exclusive interview.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has said Western politics is increasingly shaped by a dishonest mindset, with European leaders failing to learn from past mistakes.
Lavrov made the remarks to RT on Wednesday, ahead of Diplomats Day, addressing a question from interviewer Rick Sanchez about whether those connected to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein were the same as the figures behind the 2014 Western-backed coup in Ukraine.
"Regarding the specific persons, specific personalities, we can't probably make generalizations like that," Lavrov said.
