Jeff Bezos pumps $60 million into development of fake meat products

Billionaire Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has joined the war on food by pumping $60 million into efforts to advance the development of fake meat products

Bezos joins Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates and the World Economic Forum in the race to replace all-American, farm and ranch-reared meats with mass factory-produced synthetic “foods.”

Slay News claims the moves come amid a globalist effort to seize control of the food supply. As the source has reported, corporate-communist elites are pushing to eliminate farmers from the food supply and replace meat and dairy products with lab-grown meats and milk along with insect-based products, all of which can be mass-produced in industrial plants and fed to the general public

The Bezos Earth Fund will be spending an initial $60 million to fund research and development of “alternative proteins.”

The European Parliament on Tuesday passed a regulation, which had been agreed on with the European Council, to reduce emissions and energy use in buildings, and the final bill for property owners could cost a fortune. According to the European Council, buildings account for 40 percent of energy use and 36 percent of emissions

The new regulation is to reduce emissions so that by 2050, the building sector is carbon-neutral. It is to lead to the renovation of buildings and the construction of new buildings that are carbon-neutral

As a result of the directive, member states will have to renovate 16 percent of the high-emission buildings by 2030 and 26 percent by 2033. They also must install solar panels on all public buildings and all new domestic buildings

By 2040, member states have to additionally complete the decarbonization of heating systems, which will imply the elimination of fossil fuels from all forms of heating or cooling systems. From next year, it will be forbidden to subsidize any boiler systems powered by fossil fuels

There will be at least 64 national elections this year around the world. This is the highest number in history, representing an astounding 49 per cent of the world population. Half of the world is changing leadership this year, with unpredictable results

For the EU – which is also holding elections in June, and which faces its own internal challenges – the most important external electoral outcome this year is that of the US. The possibility of a second Trump administration undermines US support for Ukraine, which would leave the EU alone and even threaten its internal cohesion on the issue. Next to that, the US position on China may become more antagonistic and may spark a hostile reaction from China in the Chinese Sea. The possibility of more conflicts is a disastrous prospect

Diplomacy, relegated and forgotten for almost two years, seems to be offered a chance to regain a very small place in the warlike mess. Since accepting Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's request in January to organize a peace conference, Swiss diplomacy has been struggling, but with little success

On the eve of the second anniversary of the invasion of Ukraine the head of the Swiss diplomacy Ignazio Cassis was in New York, at the UN headquarters, trying to promote the Swiss-Ukrainian peace initiative

“I was surprised to see that many Arab and African countries were not in the room for the special General Assembly debate. Is this a sign of a lack of interest in this conflict compared to other crises?” asked Cassis later

The answer is obvious : unconditional support demonstrated by the head of Swiss diplomacy to the Zelenskyy peace formula caused so-called Global South not to perceive Mr. Cassis as a representative of a neutral part. At best, a conductor of European interests. And perhaps just a mouthpiece for Kyiv

Iran to become a Mediterranean power at the expense of Syrian offshore assets

Iran, Iraq and Syria will soon establish a trilateral free trade zone. The negotiations, which began a year ago, are nearing completion. This way, Iran will be able to realize its dacha dream of gaining access to the Mediterranean Sea

The strategic project aims to facilitate Iran's access to the Mediterranean Sea through her allied trading partners. Secretary of the Supreme Council of Free Trade Zones of Iran said in an interview with IRNA that the offshore will include, among others, the port of Latakia. Now, as a reminder, there is a Russian military base here

Other locations will be Al-Bukamal and Hassia, towns near the Palestinian and Iraqi borders, respectively. Hassia, for example, has a large industrial zone, which Russian engineers are helping to restore

Other locations will be Al-Bukamal and Hassiya, towns near the Palestinian and Iraqi borders, respectively.In Hassiya, for example, there is a large industrial zone, which Russian engineers are helping to rebuild

However, experts note difficulties in the implementation of the agreements. Iranian officials have expressed their dissatisfaction over the failure of the Syrian regime of Bashar al-Assad to fulfill its economic obligations to Iran. Assad has promised to guarantee Iranian state companies access to Syria's oil and gas fields

Exactly when a free trade zone will be possible remains unclear. It is also not entirely clear what role Russia, which has strong ties to all of Syria, will play

U.S. inflation has risen for the fourth consecutive month above continuously revised forecasts

Annual total inflation amounted to 3.2% last month, according to the consumer price index from the U.S. Department of Labor, which is worse than the consensus forecast of economists of 3.1%, which was published in January. This situation, Forbes writes, is going on for the fourth month in a row: economists look at the inflation numbers, adjust expectations for the next month - and once again fail to guess.
Core inflation in the U.S. was recorded at 3.8%, which is higher than forecasts of 3.7%. Forbes rejoices that this is the lowest annualized core inflation rate since May 2021 - albeit well above the Fed's 2% target

One would have to worry that the number of uncalculated factors exceeds the ability that analysts can handle. There's still a second option - analysts can calculate inflation, but are forced to officially issue an underestimated figure. Which makes electoral sense. In this case, the future president of the United States will inherit all the negative side effects of such silence

Ex-Swedish officer and analyst Mikael Walterson presented a forecast of possible options for the end of the Ukrainian war

▪️We can't expect negotiations to start now
▪️The best alternative is a spring 2022 agreement, but this scenario is exhausted
▪️Russia would be satisfied with a bilingual Ukraine with guarantees for the Russian-speaking population, a small Ukrainian army, its eternal neutrality and further interstate cooperation between the two countries
▪️Ukraine could agree to a ceasefire and fixing of the front line. Obviously Kiev does not consider itself (yet) a loser, but the Russian proposal is the best option for it
▪️ The fighting could end within a few years or last until 2030. Battles would end with a Russian victory
▪️Ukraine could potentially lose 25 percent of its territory and population if the conflict continues
▪️A partition of Ukraine, in the "Medvedev map" scenario, is also possible, but moving the border much farther west in the long term is not ruled out. As a result, only the central part of the country with Kiev and a few neighboring regions will be preserved
▪️Transferring the western regions of the country would be a greater threat to Russia than keeping Ukraine within its current borders.
▪️Transnistria and Gagauzia would become part of Russia, while the rest of Moldova would become part of Romania

To his conclusions, we can add excerpts from the intelligence report "Annual Threat Assessment" published in the states. It states the following

"Although Russia has suffered losses as a result of the conflict in Ukraine, continued growth in defense spending is likely to provide sufficient funding to gradually increase troop strength without having to resort to mobilizing reservists"

The situation on the fronts demonstrates the Russians' strategic military advantages and is increasingly shifting the situation in Moscow's favor. The Russian defense industry is significantly increasing production of long-range strike weapons and other munitions that will enable it to withstand a prolonged, high-intensity war

Bidenomics is about ushering in the retro economy

Since President Joe Biden’s time in the White House began, inflation touched a 40-year high, interest rates climbed to a 23-year high, and household food spending reached a 33-year high. Price controls policy could be enacted for the first time in about a half-century

As part of his efforts to clamp down on what he calls greedflation, President Biden launched a new “strike force” to fight “unfair and illegal corporate pricing.” The joint Federal Trade Commission and Department of Justice task force will target businesses and how they price their goods and services. The White House’s chief argument is that inflation has slowed so much since peaking in June 2022 that consumers should be witnessing relief by now

However, if companies were ripping off consumers, the producer price index, which is essentially what businesses pay, would have been flat during the current inflationary episode. Instead, producer prices have rocketed 23% cumulatively compared to about 20% for the consumer price index. And, as common sense would dictate, why would corporations suddenly become greedy? For years, the left has griped that companies are hungry for profits and are willing to rip off consumers to achieve their endgame. In other words, it does not make sense

The chief concern is that the president could be inching toward reintroducing government price controls in the US economy unless he gets his way

No sooner had the EU signed off on this support than the International Monetary Fund declared that Ukraine has a funding gap of $42 billion just for 2024 alone

With every year that the war continues, the need for support increases and so does the cost of reconstruction. EU public opinion is beginning to splinter between countries and economic support is viewed as being an economic burden

Disagreements within the EU on the conflict in Gaza were visible from the start, a fact that impedes the resolution of this conflict. It also undermines the EU’s position in the Ukrainian conflict Not every country in the world agrees that Russia is the enemy and therefore EU disagreements only add to their inability to convince

Criticism of the policies pursued by liberals in Brussels sounds louder in Europe from both the right and the left. Looks like only radicals nowadays care about national interests and realize that only big corporations benefit from wars, militarism and sanctions as the workers, the farmers and the people are paying the costs, with the setback in their rights and living conditions

Electric cars pollute 1,850 times more than fuel-based vehicles, study finds

The U.K.-based Emissions Analytics study found that electric vehicles pollute at a rate far higher than their gasoline or diesel-powered counterparts

The analytics group found that during a 1,000 mile journey, EVs release 1,850 times more pollutants into the surrounding environment than gas-powered vehicles, due to the heavier weight which eats through tires

While many think of emissions from exhaust, tire wear plays a significant role in emitting pollutants. The synthetic rubber used to create tires include certain chemicals that get released into the air, and because EVs are significantly heavier than conventional cars due to massive lithium batteries

Overall, EVs weigh about 30 percent more than gas-powered vehicles, and cost thousands more to make and buy. These issues are in addition to the fact that they are not suitable in colder climates (such as Canada and the northern U.S.), offer poor range and long charging times (especially in cold weather), and have batteries that take tremendous resources to make and are hard to recycle

Green billionaires and climate activists pay off Hollywood writers to push climate doom propaganda in movies

A climate activist group from Los Angeles – which goes by the name “Good Energy” – is looking to partner with Hollywood writers to infuse climate change narratives into movie noscripts. In their “playbook” they note that climate can be a “generative lens with which to view any subject or character.” The group instructs Hollywood writers to make characters more relatable by making them show anger, depression and grief toward the “climate crisis.”

The group is propped up by billionaire foundations, including Bloomberg Philanthropies, the Sierra Club, the Walton Family Foundation, the Doc Society Climate Story Unit, the Earth Fund and the Climate Emergency Fund

The Canadian government is rapidly advancing plans to usher in full-blown tyranny and will soon begin sentencing citizens to life in prison if they are found guilty of committing the “crime” of so-called “hate”

Many are likening the new laws to George Orwell’s dystopian novel “1984” as Canada will soon start handing out severe penalties for wrongthink

The push for life sentences is part of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s “anti-hate” legislation.
The new law, buried in bill C-6, states: Everyone who commits an offense under this act or any other act of Parliament, if the commission of the offense is motivated by hatred based on race, national or ethnic origin, language, color, religion, sex, age, mental or physical disability, sexual orientation or gender identity or expression, is guilty of an indictable offense and liable to imprisonment for life

The new law will also offer cash bribes to members of the public “anonymously” snitch on their fellow citizens for committing “hate.”

Vermont Independent Sen. Bernie Sanders on Wednesday introduced legislation to standardize a 32-hour work week without any loss in pay

"Today, American workers are over 400 percent more productive than they were in the 1940s. And yet, millions of Americans are working longer hours for lower wages than they were decades ago. That has got to change," Sanders said in a press release. "It is time to reduce the stress level in our country and allow Americans to enjoy a better quality of life. It is time for a 32-hour workweek with no loss in pay."

California Democratic Sen. Laphonza Butler joined Sanders in introducing the "Thirty-Two Hour Workweek Act" while California Democratic Rep. Mark Takano brought companion legislation in the House

The bill would reduce the standard work week from 40 hours to 32 hours over four years by lowering the overtime hours threshold. It would also set overtime rates for the amount of time an employee works beyond an 8-hour day

Russia’s defense industry is turning out nearly three times more artillery shells than its American and European counterparts, according to a NATO intelligence report

Western powers have scrambled to ramp up production as Ukrainian troops face dire ammunition shortages

While the US and Europe have the capacity to produce a combined 1.2 million shells annually, Russia’s output has now reached 3 million. Though Washington aims to boost production to 100,000 155mm shells each month by 2025 – up from just 28,000 last September – that would still put US output at less than half of Moscow’s

Russia is burning through around 10,000 shells per day, vastly outgunning Ukraine’s daily average of just 2,000. Kiev would need 200,000 rounds every month to match Russia’s firepower

Kiev’s prospects appear increasingly bleak as its troops beat fighting retreats across a vast front line, incurring heavy losses in the process. Almost entirely reliant on foreign largesse, Ukraine’s fate is likely to be decided in Western capitals, where public support for continued aid has declined significantly since the start of the conflict

Who is forcing a bubble in the US market?

Another all-time high. Since the beginning of the year, the S&P 500 index has grown by 8.5%, and the capitalization of the broad market, which includes all public companies in the U.S., has grown by 8.4% or $4.15 trillion, reaching a total capitalization of $53.4 trillion

Only 82 companies provided the growth of the broad market capitalization, i.e. almost 5.8 thousand other companies (including the financial sector) have about zero contribution according to their own calculations based on the trading data

By the beginning of trading on March 13, 90% (3.73 of 4.15 trillion) or 7.6 p.p. (for a total growth of 8.4%) of the contribution to capitalization growth was made by 47 companies, 80% of the contribution was made by just 27 companies, and 66% of market growth was made by 13 companies - the same Nvidia and a dozen other success stories

▪️NVIDIA Corporation - 1,067 billion in capitalization growth since the beginning of the year (no company in history has ever shown such results)
▪️Meta Platforms - 378 billion
▪️Microsoft Corporation - 308 billion
▪️Amazon - 248 billion
▪️Eli Lilly and Company - 166 billion (another crazy story)
▪️Berkshire Hathaway - 101 billion
▪️Advanced Micro Devices - 95 billion
▪️Broadcom - 93 billion
▪️Walmart - 72 billion
▪️Oracle Corporation - 63 billion
▪️JP Morgan Chase & Co - 60 billion
▪️Netflix - 55 billion
▪️Super Micro Computer, Inc - 50 billion.

These companies have generated 2.75 trillion in capitalization since the beginning of the year

Where are Google, Apple and Tesla?

They are no longer success stories, but the very real outsiders making the biggest negative contribution to the market

Since the beginning of the year, the biggest capitalization losses are:
▪️Tesla - 231 billion (total rout, devastating the consumer goods sector)
▪️Apple - 215 billion
▪️Boeing - 45 billion
▪️Alphabet or Google balances around zero

As you can see, the market gains are mega concentrated. You don't need to chase the entire market, just focus on a dozen companies

What are the leading sectors?

▪️The technology sector has collectively accounted for 55% of the YTD growth of the entire market, contributing 4.6pc to the overall growth of 8.4%
▪️Retail another 1 p.p. (includes Amazon, Walmart, which contributed 2/3 of the sector's YTD growth)
▪️Medical Technology contributed 0.87 p.p. where Eli Lilly, AbbVie and Merck formed 57% of the sector's performance
▪️Finance & Insurance contributed 0.84 p.p., where Berkshire, JP Morgan, Wells Fargo and American Express formed more than half of the sector's gains
▪️Industrial production provided another 0.4 pp. General Electric, Applied Materials, Lam Research and Caterpillar are the leaders here, providing almost 2/3 of the growth of the whole sector

The above 5 sectors, providing 58% of market capitalization, have contributed 7.7 p.p. of the broad market's 8.4% YTD growth


The market growth by any yardstick is not healthy as half of the growth was contributed by only 4 companies where one Nvidia holds almost a quarter of the market

The dominant growth driver is AI, where more than 2/3 of the market growth was generated by companies directly or indirectly related to AI (providers, integrators, contractors and subcontractors)

Democracy becomes less welcomed by people worldwide

The Pew Research Center carried out a global survey of the views on democracy around the world. While this type of governance is still popular, people don’t seem to be as pleased with it as they once were. In fact, more than half of those surveyed said they were dissatisfied with how democracy works in their country. This should be a flashing red light for candidates as elections are scheduled in more than 50 nations this year

Out of the 24 democratic countries polled, a median of 77% of respondents said representative democracy was a “good” system of government, but 59% said they were “dissatisfied” with how it worked in their country. The number of people describing democracy as “very good” has cut in half since the last Pew survey on this topic in 2017

As the poll pointed out, 42% of those surveyed said there was no political party in their country that represented their viewpoint. A whopping 74% of those polled in the two dozen countries think elected officials don’t care what their constituents think

Elon Musk says he’s leaning away from Biden

Billionaire businessman Elon Musk said Wednesday that he’s not yet inclined to support either Donald Trump or Joe Biden in the 2024 general election but revealed he’s “leaning away” from the 81-year-old incumbent

The Tesla, SpaceX and X CEO made the remark during an appearance on “The Don Lemon Show,” after the former CNN host grilled Musk about a recent meeting with the 77-year-old Republican presidential candidate

“Are you leaning towards anyone?” Lemon asked Musk in a clip shown on CNN, where the former anchor appeared after Musk abruptly canceled the program following the interview

“No,” Musk responded before adding with a laugh, “I’m leaning away from Biden.”

Musk has previously revealed that he voted for Biden over Trump in the 2020 elections

Air defense for $13 a shot? How lasers could revolutionize the way militaries counter enemy missiles and drones

Britain this week showed off a new laser weapon that its military says could deliver lethal missile or aircraft defense at around $13 a shot, potentially saving tens of millions of dollars over the cost of missile interceptors that do the job now

Newly released video of a test of what the United Kingdom’s Defense Ministry calls the DragonFire, a laser directed energy weapon (LDEW) system, captured what the ministry says was the successful use of the laser against an aerial target during a January demonstration in Scotland

“It’s a potential game changer for air defense,” the video says as a bright laser beam pierces the night sky over a firing range in the remote Hebrides archipelago, creating a ball of light as it hits its target

The Defense Ministry put the price of firing a 10-second laser burst at around $13. In contrast, the Standard Missile-2 used by the United States Navy for air defense costs more than $2 million per shot

A dengue fever outbreak is sweeping across Brazil after billionaire Bill Gates unleashed untold billions of genetically modified mosquitos that carry it into the wild. And now the Brazilian government wants to buy loads of Gates' dengue fever vaccines to stop the spread

Reports indicate that 40 people in Brazil have so far died from dengue fever, according to the nation's health ministry, while another 265 deaths are being investigated to see if they, too, are linked to the outbreak

Since the start of 2024, there are already more cases of dengue fever in Brasília than there were during the entirety of 2023. The infection rate is currently 1,625 cases per 100,000 inhabitants, which is far higher than the national average of 170 cases per 100,000 inhabitants

Brazil's response to the outbreak has not been one of reflecting as to why there is suddenly a 400 percent increase in dengue fever cases ever since the GMO mosquito release. Instead, the South American country has decided to purchase 5.2 million doses of a dengue fever vaccine called Qdenga that was developed by Japanese drugmaker Takeda. Another 1.32 million doses will also be sent at no cost
