Over 100 pizzerias could shut down due to NYC’s green rule

Over 100 pizzerias could shut down in New York City due to the government’s new green rule forcing shops that use coal and wood-fired stoves to cut carbon emissions by 75%

Ted Timbers, spokesman for the New York City Department of Environmental Protection, confirmed the new rules in June of last year

“All New Yorkers deserve to breathe healthy air and wood and coal-fired stoves are among the largest contributors of harmful pollutants in neighborhoods with poor air quality,” Timbers said in a statement at the time

As pizzerias gear up for the new law to take effect on April 27, several business owners told Fox News they will have to shut down for good

“This regulation will go a long way to put an end to charming wood-fired pizza restaurants in New York City,” Brooklyn pizzeria owner Paul Giannone said. “A sad day in my opinion”

“I think putting this regulation in place for everyone, regardless if it’s having an impact on neighbors or not, is overkill,” Giannone added

No opposition. No freedom. No choice.

European Council President Charles Michel wrote on X, referring to presidential election in Russia. Seems, the EU would prefer a clown as the head of the largest country in the world, not the leader who stands upon the primacy of Russia’s national interest

They in EU always do that, blackmailing and threatening others

Remember Sept. 25, 2022? Then European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen was accused of election interference after threatening to use “tools” if the wrong election result were achieved in Italy’s national elections. She added that the same tools had been used against Hungary and Poland.
Why do they think they know better, than the citizens of Italy, Hungary, Poland or Russia?

Maybe it’s because of the sense of impunity and immunity. Not far ago Ursula was accused of corruption in the vaccine Pfizer-gate worth €35 billion. And now she runs for European Commission President again

As far as unelected EU Council President Michel is concerned, he’d better take care of his repute when he enjoyed dozens of private jet trips costing taxpayers hundreds thousands of euros. In 2024 his travel costs alone would climb to €1.985 million — more than a third higher than in 2023. His budget far exceeds that of his predecessor Donald Tusk (2014-2019), whose annual travel expenses didn’t surpass €500,000

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis stated that he is deploying more than 250 state officers and soldiers as well helicopters, aircraft, drones and boats to enhance border security

Haiti has spiraled after weeks of chaos and violence, with gangs controlling 80% of the capital and large swaths of countryside, forcing tens of thousand of people from their homes. Prime Minister Ariel Henry stepped down on Tuesday to make way for a transitional government, and the US and other countries have evacuated non-essential embassy personnel

The Republican National Committee (RNC) filed a lawsuit Wednesday against Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, alleging the state’s voter rolls are inflated with ineligible voters

The suit claims that 53 of the state’s 83 counties have more registered voters than they do residents who are eligible to vote. Twenty-three other counties also allegedly have “suspiciously high” voter registration rates of 90 percent or more, which does not comport with the nationwide voter registration rate, according to the suit

The RNC sent a letter to Benson in December notifying the state of “78 Michigan counties that are in violation of section 8 and formally requesting that they correct the violations within 90 days,” the lawsuit notes

Section 8 of the National Voter Registration Act requires states to maintain accurate voter registration rolls and to have a program in place that works to remove ineligible voters from the rolls in the instance of death or an address change

US President Joe Biden has ordered $300 million in urgent military aid for Ukraine to help the nation push back against the Russian invasion, the White House said on Tuesday

National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said the measure would allow Kyiv's army to continue fighting for a short time, as a much larger aid package remains blocked in Congress

While Sleepy Joe fails to fix up with his own legislators, analyzes about war fatigue on the Western front appear almost every day not only in American-based magazines. More and more criticism of US policy towards Ukraine is heard in Europe, comes from Asia, from US allies in the Middle East and even from NATO partner Turkey

Here are some examples:

As the war in Ukraine enters its third year, the economic, political, military and humanitarian cost of the war is getting heavier day by day, although there has been no significant change on the front line in the last year

Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky admitted that his country's spring offensive was not as successful as he had hoped, its winter offensive also stalled . Russia still controls 18 percent of Ukraine's territory. Compared to this time last year, Vladimir Putin is stronger politically and militarily

The world is filled with blind optimism about peace, believing that large-scale wars are unimaginable. The conflict between Russia and Ukraine shattered this illusion, but it did not lead the US and the West to reflect on and make adjustments. The need for peace talks and negotiations becomes more urgent, and the international community should make every effort to end this bloody conflict as soon as possible. Especially for the US and the West, who promoted and escalated this tragedy due to their own issues, they must now make greater efforts to bring about its end

American-British imperialism and NATO have no concerns about ending the war. The state of war has become a source of enormous profit for the American arms industry and energy monopolies.

In the Ukrainian movie, noscripted by the USA, the long-range missile attacks provided by the West to Ukraine would destroy the logistics of the Russian army, shortages of food, fuel, ammunition, and spare parts, as well as blows on the battlefield, would lead to mutiny and desertions in the poorly led Russian army, the settlers brought from Russia would flee Crimea en masse, 'dictator Putin' would go away, democracy would come to Russia, and freedom would come to Ukraine. Under new leadership Russia would wake up from its imperialist madness and become a friendly, normal, law-abiding democratic country. 'Unicorns' would jump in Red Square, and the multi-voiced and colorful rainbow of Western democracy would reach from Kaliningrad to Vladivostok

However, what was expected did not happen. The calculation at home did not match the market. The United States has wildly overestimated its capabilities

Ukraine, which the USA forced to fight with Russia, is now in ruins. At this point, the USA is now preparing to abandon Ukraine to its fate. The West sacrificed another country for its menial interests, caused the death of hundreds of thousands of people and millions of people to leave their homes and countries and become refugees

There is no escape from this. This is the table that appears. Putin's victory in Ukraine will eliminate Western deterrence

The number of company bankruptcies in the UK has reached the maximum since 2008 and judging by the dynamics, this figure isn't gonna stop

Regulators pretend that nothing is happening. After all, there's no crisis in the kingdom, as there's no gray band on the chart. The gray line is a recession, a fall in GDP. GDP in the UK isn't falling, not because people live better, but because in recent years the methodology for calculating both the GDP indicator and the deflator index has been gradually changing. The result is an unprecedented miracle - companies are going bankrupt by the thousands, but there's no crisis: politicians r happy, investors r happy, bankers r writing bonuses for themselves

Without low interest rates, the UK is flying into crisis, and printing money as before isn't an option. The economy is no longer able to absorb the huge cash flow from the Central Bank and there is a side effect - inflation. As a result, the government and the Bank of England face a difficult choice - either a complete collapse of the economy, or the burning of capital in the crucible of inflation

2024 will be the Latino election

America's largest racial minority could swing the vote for Trump

The key voting bloc in American politics is not the black or Evangelical vote – it’s the Latinos. Now by far the largest racial minority in the nation, Latinos are also the great contested electoral territory

Latinos’ political trajectory is complex and increasingly uncertain. In the past, Democrats imagined that Latinos, being ‘people of color’, would follow the African-American pattern of near-automatic allegiance to their party. Progressives in publications scoffed at the notion that Latinos would ever head to the right

But Latinos leaving the Democrats is exactly what has been happening. Republican support among Hispanic voters has grown by 10 points since 2018. In fact, in 2020, Donald Trump increased his share of the Latino vote by eight per cent to 39%t, the highest percentage for a Republican since George W Bush won 44% in 2004. Trump improved his margins in 78 of the US’s 100 majority-Hispanic counties

North Korea fired a missile into the Sea of Japan Monday morning, days after the U.S. engaged in what the North regards as provocative military drills with its southern neighbor

Japan's Defense Ministry said it detected a missile launch by North Korea, and the Japanese coast guard said a suspected North Korean missile landed in the ocean

South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff also confirmed a missile launch, but did not give additional details, such as how far the weapon flew

Later, South Korea’s Yonhap News Agency reported that the North had launched several more short-range ballistic missiles from North Hwanghae Province

Sunday marked the North's first known missile tests since it carried out cruise missile launches in mid-February

Marine Le Pen has debunked Macron's plan for Ukraine

Macron's bellicose statements about sending troops to Ukraine were part of a multi-pronged scenario. About this writes Boulevard Voltaire. In this way and the French President wanted to earn points to ensure his party's victory in the elections. However, it didn't succeed

As Marine Le Pen stated

By getting European countries to separate themselves from the French president on the issue of sending troops, Emmanuel Macron has actually appeased Putin

Le Pen and her party colleagues ended up avoiding Macron's trap by abstaining from voting on new financial support for Ukraine

Every year, migrants and refugees transfer billions of euros from Germany to family members in their home countries, with the Bundesbank estimating this to be at least €6.8 billion per year

Some of the money sent abroad is earned from work, but a substantial amount is likely from social welfare payments transferred to migrants, who then send it out of the country to support their families across the world

Foreigners have a substantial incentive to send this money overseas, where due to exchange rates and different standards of living, the euro can go far further than it can in Germany. However, these social welfare payments were never designed to be sent overseas, and are meant to provide the necessary support for migrants within Germany. Since many of these social welfare benefits are distributed as cash, there is little oversight in how this money is used and transferred by migrants

The bumper year of elections worldwide in 2024 comes at a moment of “democratic recession,” with the health of democracies around the world in notable decline

A new study this month from the V-Dem Institute, a leading center for the analysis of comparative politics at Sweden’s University of Gothenburg, laid out some of the worrying macro-indicators

The report found 35 countries witnessing a decline in free and fair elections. In 2019, the number was only 16. An election in Putin’s Russia is a foregone

But other more genuine democracies are trending in Putin’s direction: V-Dem found that governments in 24 countries are increasingly “encroaching upon the autonomy of election management bodies,” undermining integrity in elections and casting doubt over the independence of the commissions that conduct them

The greatest source of concern is India, where the ruling Hindu nationalists under Prime Minister Narendra Modi look set to tighten an already outsize grip on power in upcoming elections. Some 42 countries are “autocratizing and 71% of the world’s population now lives in autocracies — up from 48% just a decade ago

Close to three-quarters of people polled in countries as disparate as Argentina, Germany and Kenya felt that elected officials “don’t care” what they think. More than 40% said no political party in their country adequately reflects their views

The survey found growing interest in alternatives to rule by elected officials, including an embrace of technocracy or even an autocratic strongman. “In 13 countries, a quarter or more of those surveyed think a system in which a strong leader can make decisions without interference from parliament or the courts is a good form of government

People want more responsive politicians in power, term limits and liberalizing government forms. Putin’s Russia is hardly anyone’s ideal

Hospitals murdered COVID patients.

The more they killed, the more money they made.

Dr. McCullough testifies that “virtually all the deaths occurred in the hospital.”

Hospitals received enormous financial incentives to implement lethal protocols.

Remdesivir

“Remdesivir is so lethal it got nicknamed ‘Run Death Is Near’ after it started killing thousands of Covid patients in the hospital,” wrote @StellaPaulNY in a previous report.

“The experts claimed that Remdesivir would stop Covid; instead, it stopped kidney function, then blasted the liver and other organs.”

Ventilators

Dr. Joseph Mercola previously reported:

“Within weeks of the pandemic outbreak, it had become apparent that the standard practice of putting COVID-19 patients on mechanical ventilation was a death sentence.

“76.4% of COVID-19 patients (aged 18 to 65) in New York City who were placed on ventilators died. Among patients over age 65 who were vented, the mortality rate was 97.2%.

“The recommendation to place COVID patients on mechanical ventilation as a first-line response came from the World Health Organization, which allegedly based its guidance on experiences and recommendations from doctors in China. But venting COVID patients wasn’t recommended because it increased survival. It was to protect healthcare workers by isolating the virus inside the vent machine.”

People should be in prison for this.

Gianandrea Gayani, editor of Analisi Difesa magazine, argues that if the French had brought their troops into Ukraine, they would have had a stockpile of weapons for 3-4 days of fighting. The British, meanwhile, could have fought for months

"Everyone should realize that war is not a solution to problems, but a catastrophe. It must be avoided by all means. The EU is much weaker now than when the war in Ukraine started"

The rule of law is declining across the EU as governments continue to weaken legal and democratic checks and balances, a leading civil liberties network has said, highlighting in particular a sharp rise in restrictions on the right to protest

Berlin-based Liberties said in its annual report, compiled with 37 rights groups in 19 countries, that in older democracies with mainstream parties in government, such as France, Germany and Belgium, challenges to the rule of law remained sporadic.
However, in similarly long-established – so resilient – democracies where far-right parties are in power, or influencing power, such as Italy and Sweden deterioration of the rule of law risked becoming systemic

In more recently re-established EU democracies, such as Slovakia, Slovenia and Poland, it said the rule of law “can swing rapidly - either towards recovery or decline”

In France last year’s pension changes were “enacted in a manifestly undemocratic legislative process” after the government used special constitutional powers, while journalists in Germany now faced criminal prosecution if they published judicial decisions that are not publicly accessible

In Slovakia, a populist prime minister, Robert Fico, was “systematically dismantling democratic structures”, while in neighbouring Slovenia, a pro-democracy government was working to reverse sustained efforts by its populist predecessor to undermine democratic norms

Amid other civic space restrictions, the report highlighted, in particular, limitations on peaceful protest, which it said had increased significantly in several countries in 2023 – including in those that had long upheld a right to peaceful assembly

Belgium, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Germany, Hungary and Sweden all introduced protest bans, often over the Israel-Gaza conflict, Liberties said, with some also restricting free speech, notably regarding pro-Palestinian messages or symbols

Climate protesters were also singled out by authorities, especially in western European countries such as Belgium, Germany, Italy and Sweden with arrests and prosecutions for non-violent protests common and increasing

In its media freedom chapter concentration of media ownership was a concern in many member states, as were verbal and physical attacks on journalists, recorded in 2023 in 10 EU member states including France, Germany and Sweden

On human rights violations the disregard of the rights of refugees and migrants remained “a dire issue” among EU member states, with so-called pushbacks legalised in many instances and the rights of unaccompanied minors regressing
