the world of deals, that Trump world, it will never be in favor of we the people or the so-called GLobal South

This is the heart of the monster:

USDA HQ employees told to work remotely so office building can house soldiers in upcoming military parade

Follow the Money: Army’s 250th anniversary, which coincides with President Donald Trump’s 79th birthday.

The email obtained by Government Executive says that access to USDA’s South Building will be restricted to essential employees from June 1 through June 20 and that maximum telework is recommended for individuals who work in the building. The parade is scheduled for June 14.

“Your school has 30 calendar days from the date of service of this Notice to submit written representations under oath and supported by documentary evidence, setting forth the reasons why SEVP should not withdraw your school’s certification,” the notice said. “If SEVP certification is withdrawn, your school will then no longer be approved to enroll or continue to educate nonimmigrant students.”

This is the value system of a culture of death, pettiness and puerile presidents! All those fucking creepy heads in the White Man’s House really working hard.

So, let’s start with a definition of what Kehinde Andrews means by a psychosis of whiteness:

“I use psychosis here as a metaphor to diagnose the delusional thinking that is necessary to maintain a racist society…”

Adding….

“To avoid facing up to its true nature, society creates myths and distortions, resulting in what I am calling the psychosis of Whiteness”

“China is so deeply engulfed in the psychosis of Whiteness that the government is pumping billions into transforming its population to be able to consume a Western diet. The symbolism could not be more apparent; milk is actually white.”

ANd it is a complete fail, USA: A new report from LendingTree paints a grim picture for first-time homebuyers in the Pacific Northwest, ranking Portland as the metro with the worst housing crisis outlook among the nation’s largest 100 cities.

The study analyzed vacancy rates, housing unit approvals, and home value-to-income ratios, concluding that three of the five worst metros are in the Pacific Northwest.

• Portland – 1st
• Boise – 2nd
• Spokane – 4th

The study shows Portland has a median home value of $526,500, while the median household income is $94,573.

World markets and the U.S. dollar have surged this morning after a shock U.S. court ruling overnight that said the bulk of President Donald Trump’s sweeping import tariff hikes were outside his authority.

More fucking Jews on NPR talking with a head JEW: War crimes? Genocide, mowing the lawn, disproportionate beyond all measures, but the two Jews talk it up?

STEVE INSKEEP, HOST:

Many Israelis have criticized their own government’s conduct of this war, and that includes a former prime minister of Israel. Ehud Olmert is a longtime critic of his successor, Benjamin Netanyahu. He said for some time, including on this program, that Netanyahu seemed to have no long-term strategy, and now Ehud Olmert says something more, writing an article for an Israeli newspaper asserting that Israel is committing war crimes. He’s on the line. Welcome back to the program, sir.

EHUD OLMERT: Hi. Good morning.

INSKEEP: I want to acknowledge you previously rejected the accusation of war crimes against Israel. What specifically would have changed your mind?

OLMERT: Well, a couple of things. No. 1 – the fact that senior Israeli ministers in the cabinet called expressly and explicitly to deny any humanitarian needs from the people in Gaza, a couple of million people living in Gaza, and they say they should all starve and be demolished. This is a call for war crime by the many senior ministers in the cabinet, without one comment by the prime minister that he’s not – that he does not support this. And then, of course…

INSKEEP: I wonder if I could just interrupt for a second. From the very first days of the war, in fact, right on October 7, Israel blocked food and other aid from getting into Gaza. That has come and gone from time to time, but there have been statements like this all along. What pushed that over into war crimes if it was before?

OLMERT: It’s a matter of volume, you know? At some point, when it becomes critical, and there are hundreds of thousands of people looking for food, and the supply does not arrive because of the actions taken by the government of Israel with specific orders to deny these foods. At some point, it crosses the line which distinguishes it from just something which is not done to a crime. And this is what happens. This is one thing. I said there were two things.

Oh, the IRONY:

AI Cheating Is So Out of Hand In America’s Schools That the Blue Books Are Coming Back

Pen and paper is back, baby.

And the 250th birthday of the USA uniformed mercenary brigades? Ahh, those national symbols of AmeriKKKan decay.

Long lines, dirty bathrooms, closed campsites await visitors: national park experts warn

TrumpLandia:

• Experts warn staffing cuts will jeopardize summer travel plans to national parks.
• Reduced staffing could lead to long lines, dirty bathrooms, and could compromise public safety.
• Staffing shortages could also increase wildfire risks, park advocates warned.

A swarm of parasites. No two ways to look at it.

Israel authorizes more Jewish settlements in the occupied West Bank

Israel has already built well over 100 settlements across the territory that are home to some 500,000 settlers.

And so, what are the five? Pentagon orders civilian employees to submit money-saving ideas. It’s the last step in the “5 bullet points” weekly email exercise After this week, Defense Department civilians will no longer have to submit an email list of five things they accomplished over the previous week, according to a Friday email from the Pentagon’s acting personnel chief, ending a requirement the Pentagon put in place back in March.

Hmm, what is it that the Pentagon relies on? HOW many contractors?

Their last email, due Wednesday, must include one idea that will “improve the Department’s efficiency or root out waste,” according to the message from Jules Hurst. It shouldn’t include anything classified or sensitive, he added.

“Your weekly emails have served as a reminder of the depth and breadth of the Department’s mission, and of how it takes a workforce of many talents to achieve our national security mission,” Hurst wrote in the email.

The “5 bullet points” exercise first came down from the Office of Personnel Management in February, an initiative by the Department of Government Efficiency, a White House advisory board.

For staff, it was one more requirement on top of existing internal weekly reviews.

“We still have not been told what its true purpose is or who will read it. It’s an internal joke,” a Defense civilian told Defense One after the requirement came out in March. “This is just one more report each week that takes time away from the actually important work we have to do, for which we’re already overworked and underpaid.”

[Pentagon spending has totaled over $14 trillion since the start of the war in Afghanistan, with one-third to one-half of the total going to military contractors. More than half of the annual Department of Defense budget is now spent on military contractors, and payments to contractors have risen more than 164% since 2001, from about $140 billion in 2001 to about $370 billion in 2019. A large portion of these contracts have gone to just five major corporations: Lockheed Martin, Boeing, General Dynamics, Raytheon, and Northrop Grumman. Military contracting can be called the “Camo Economy” because it camouflages from public view the full costs of the wars both in human and economic terms — the number of contractors employed, injured, and killed is not transparent, nor is there detailed information on the dollars flowing from the Pentagon through prime contractors and many layers of sub-contractors.

While billions of dollars are spent on DoD-funded contracts in Iraq and Afghanistan, many of the individuals working for those contractors and their sub-contractors receive extremely low pay while working long hours in bad work environments with minimal labor and legal protections. More than half of the people working under U.S. contracts are either “Host Country Nationals” or “Third Country Nationals” – the latter is the term used for migrant laborers who often face the worst exploitation.

Critics have raised major economic and security concerns including the concentration of defense contracts among just a handful of large firms, exorbitant prices for goods and services, fraudulent contracts, and the “revolving door” between the large defense contractors and government, such as that between Halliburton and the Bush administration.

The growth of private contracting has increased not only in the military, but also in the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), National Security Agency (NSA), and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), where private contract employees outnumber government employees in United States intelligence operations.

Weapons makers have spent $2.5 billion on lobbying over the past two decades, employing, on average, over 700 lobbyists per year over the past five years. That is more than one for every member of Congress.]

Fucking Gestapo:

Missouri has agreed to abide by a request from the federal government to turn over personal data about anyone receiving food assistance, the state social services agency confirmed to The Independent Tuesday.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture earlier this month requested sensitive data from states about participants in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, including their Social Security numbers and addresses, in what it says is an effort to ensure program integrity.

That request has prompted concerns among privacy and hunger groups, who have argued it violates federal privacy law and data protections.

Fucking Crazy: In a Tom Clancy-worthy twist, North Korean hackers cracked the transponders of Roman Abramovich’s $600-million superyacht Eclipse, anchored in Turkey for three years, and broadcast its cloned identity 4,700 miles away so a cargo ship could smuggle banned coal to China.

THey all must be macheted to be the chum for the great white sharks: After gifting a Boeing 747 VIP jet to the United States, Qatar’s generous Emir escaped Doha’s scorching summer by sailing to Spain aboard his $500-million superyacht Al Lusail, a vessel longer than an NFL football field with six decks, multiple pools, and even a beauty salon.

Double and triple dirt:
