You can tell much about a society by what its establishment is sensitive to. For example, while Major League Baseball dropped the Chief Wahoo logo and other American Indian symbols, the Los Angeles Dodgers doesn’t appear to have a problem honoring the “Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence,” whose very purpose is to mock the faith of 62 million Americans. Then there’s this, also out of the City of Angels:

Amazon employees protested by the hundreds during a lunchtime demonstration in Seattle on Wednesday after the company brought back in-person requirements for three days a week.
Truly, having to drive to work for three days must be a harrowing experience with much struggle and hardship, but not long ago Americans were actually expected to go to the office for at least five days a week. Is three days of responsibility really too much for Seattle progressives?

After much delay and legal protests by JPMorgan Chase, its Chairman and CEO, Jamie Dimon, was forced by a Manhattan federal court to testify under oath in a deposition about what he personally knew about the bank’s long-term customer relationship with child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. (Epstein died in a Manhattan jail on August 10, 2019. His death was ruled a suicide by the medical examiner.)
The deposition was held last Friday, May 26, at the offices of JPMorgan Chase in Manhattan. In a surprise move, opposing counsels agreed yesterday to release the transcript of the deposition, with some segments marked as sensitive and redacted.

Multiple whistleblowers from the Department of Justice (DOJ) have reportedly come forward to allege that FBI leaders are hiding evidence from lower-level agents investigating Democrat President Joe Biden’s son Hunter.
The whistleblowers told Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) that evidence against Hunter Biden was placed in “highly restricted systems.”
Those restrictions prevent other FBI officials from reviewing the materials.

Given the documented record of war crimes committed under Henry Kissinger’s direction from 1969 to 1977, why was he never held accountable? The legacy of the arrogant brutality of Kissinger is continued by today’s Anglo-American establishment, as they risk triggering World War III to protect a “Rules-Based Order” which exists only in their minds, and could only be sustained through a murderous deployment of NATO. Throughout his life, Lyndon LaRouche stood up against Kissinger and his Hobbesian “realism.” It is overdue that we reject this outlook, and return to the Vision of Peace presented by President John F. Kennedy in his June 10, 1963 speech at American University.

In fact, AI and GPT together are almost the only drivers of positive stock market performance today.
A small group of companies with advanced capabilities in AI/GPT (Microsoft, NVIDIA, Google, Apple, and a few others) are rallying sharply on the profit and productivity potential offered by the new technology.
If the AI/GPT plays were removed from stock market indices, the remainder of the stocks would be down on a year-to-date basis. Whether this performance is a bubble or a genuine leap based on fundamentals remains to be seen.

Target department stores across the United States have been receiving bomb threats, forcing evacuations and terrifying employees, after Target was forced to pull or move certain “pride” displays from their stores after backlash from conservatives over the prominent displays pushing the “transgender” lifestyle, where children can easily see them and be influenced.
Conservatives and even some independents, find it off-putting to see “tuck-friendly” or “chest-binding” imagery so prominently displayed in stores they bring their children to, so they spoke up, refused to shop there.

Target achieved a 100% score on the Corporate Equality Index (CEI) in 2022, and was rated #4 by the Human Rights Campaign for being one of the wokest companies. This arbitrary social credit score goes against American values and people are protesting with their dollars. Target managed to lose $10 billion in ten days after the public became aware of their aggressive rainbow marketing campaign geared toward children. Will Target become the next Bud Light?

Despite all of the mainstream talk about a strong, resilient economy, corporate bankruptcies through the first four months of 2023 came in at the highest level since 2010. Meanwhile, monthly bankruptcy filings have hit numbers last seen during the peak of the pandemic.
According to data from S&P Global Market Intelligence, there were 235 corporate bankruptcy filings through April. That’s a 116.5% increase over the same period in 2022.
