An Israeli whistleblower was indicted by the Biden administration days after detailing extraordinary allegations against the Biden family.

Dr. Gal Luft, the “missing witness” from the Biden corruption investigation, told the NY Post last week that he was arrested in Cyprus to stop him from testifying in front of the House Oversight Committee that the Biden family received payments from individuals linked to Chinese military intelligence, and that they had an FBI mole who shared classified information with the Biden benefactors from the China-controlled energy company CEFC.

“I told the DOJ that Hunter was associated with a very senior retired FBI official who had a distinct physical characteristic—he had one eye,” Luft said.

That FBI official is widely believed to be former FBI Director Louis Freeh, who gave $100,000 to a trust for two of then-Vice President Joe Biden’s grandchildren in 2016 shortly before telling Hunter, “I would be delighted to do future work with you.”

Now, Biden’s DOJ has charged Luft with failing to register under the Foreign Agents Act (FARA), as well as Iranian sanctions violations. He’s alleged to have conspired with others to act in China’s interest, including recruiting and paying a former high ranking U.S. government official to support policies beneficial to China.

One of the charges against Gal Luft is for foreign agent violations. Same charge the Hunter Biden was investigated for but which federal prosecutors declined to bring.

Luft was also charged with conspiracy to illegally sell weapons to Chinese individuals and companies, as well as aerial bombs and rockets to the UAE, Chinese weapons to Kenya, and Iranian oil to other countries in violation of sanctions.

He was initially arrested Feb. 17 in Cyprus, but fled after being released on bail. He faces up to 100 years in prison if convicted.

I’ve been arrested in Cyprus on a politically motivated extradition request by the US.

The US, claiming I’m an arms dealer. It would be funny if it weren’t tragic.

I’ve never been an arms dealer.

DOJ is trying to bury me to protect Joe,Jim&Hunter Biden.

Shall I name names?

— Gal Luft (@GalLuft) February 19, 2023

“As alleged, the defendant engaged in multiple schemes to evade sanctions and laws intended to protect our national security,” said FBI Acting Assistant Director in Charge, Christie m. Curtis.

As the Epoch Times notes;

Mr. Luft had been an advisor to CEFC China Energy, and told FBI prosecutors in Brussels in 2019 that CEFC had given Mr. Hunter Biden and his uncle James Biden monthly payments of $100,000 and $65,000 in exchange for using their names to promote Chinese business interests, according to the Post.

Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wisc.) said on Fox News recently that Mr. Luft should have the opportunity to testify on this case before Congress.

“He’s an important witness,” Mr. Johnson said.

Is DOJ trying to silence Dr. Gal Luft from publicly exposing Biden family corruption?

House Republicans have been probing the financial dealings of the Biden family amid allegations cited by House Oversight and Accountability Committee Chairman James Comer that Mr. Hunter Biden received at least $15 million from foreign nationals.

The House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith says Mr. Hunter Biden is alleged to have received more than $17 million from sources in Ukraine, Romania, and China.

Luft almost certainly has insight into what CEFC wanted from Biden. He traveled frequently with CEFC’s Patrick Ho, who Hunter represented as part of his bribery case. CEFC’s Ye Jianping (Hunter’s paymaster) was a trustee at Luft’s think tank.

Earlier this year, an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) whistleblower came forth with allegations of government abuse from the Justice Department and IRS, showing preferential treatment for the U.S. President’s son.

Apparently *everyone* involved in the Biden family’s foreign dealings was a criminal except the Bidens themselves. Funny how that works.

— Bonchie (@bonchieredstate) July 10, 2023

U.S. Attorney for the District of Delaware David Weiss and Attorney General Merrick Garland have denied these claims.

Mr. Hunter Biden is also involved in an ongoing lawsuit and countersuit involving the laptop he abandoned in a Delaware computer repair shop.

John Paul Mac Isaac, the repairman, sued Mr. Hunter Biden last year for $1.5 million in damages, alleging defamation.

Mr. Mac Isaac says Mr. Hunter Biden’s claims that the laptop had been stolen or hacked included a narrative that Mr. Mac Isaac was party to a Russian disinformation campaign. 

And of course, look at who’s helping the Biden regime:

When the government indicts a whistleblower, the assumption of guilt has to be on the government.

The truth might be different, but government corruption has to be your working assumption until and unless events show otherwise. https://t.co/zz5qsS8OKn

Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr declared Monday that he believes the CIA was involved in funding the Wuhan lab where the COVID pandemic originated.

In an interview with Fox News’ Jesse Watters, Kennedy suggested that the Biden administration is not interested in punishing China for covering up the lab leak because it would expose National Institutes of Health funded bioweapons programs.

“I think the CIA was involved certainly in this research,” Kennedy proclaimed, adding “They were funding it through USAID. And NIH, I think, in the end gave about $26 million in funding to the Wuhan lab. But USAID, which was functioning as the CIA surrogate, gave over $64 million. The Pentagon also gave a lot of money.”

RFK Jr also slammed Anthony Fauci, the subject of an entire book that he was written, noting “I think he caused a lot of injury. I think that he particularly by withholding early treatment from Americans we racked up the highest death count in the world. We only have 4.2% of the globe’s population but we had 16% of the COVID deaths in this country and that was from bad policy.”

“There was countries that did the opposite of what we did that provided Ivermectin, Hydroxychloroquine, other early treatments to their population, and had 1/200th of our death rate,” Kennedy continued.

When discussing vaccines, Kennedy stated “I do believe that autism comes from vaccines. But I think most of the things people believe about my opinions about vaccines are wrong. I, you know, all I have said about vaccines is we should have good science.”

He continued, “We should have the same kind of testing, placebo controlled trials that we have for every other medication. Vaccines are exempt from pre-licensing placebo controlled trials. There’s no way that anybody can tell the risk profile of those products or even the relative benefits of those products before they’re mandated, and we should have that kind of testing.”

Cash-strapped consumers are cutting back on personal hygiene products, according to Bloomberg. It’s yet another sign, after two years of negative real wage growth, depleted personal savings, and record amounts of credit card debt, the supposedly ‘strong’ consumer under ‘Bidenomics‘ continues to crack under the heavy weight of a once-in-a-generation inflation storm. 

Data from NIQ, which tracks retail sales, reveals consumers are decreasing their spending on personal hygiene products, like toilet paper, toothpaste, and laundry detergent. Sales for those items in the 52 weeks through June 24 were down 3% to 4%. 

“The strains that the consumer is under have been exacerbated over the last couple of months,” Morningstar analyst Erin Lash told Bloomberg. She noted a reduction in food assistance programs, lower tax returns, and the end of stimulus checks are some of the reasons for faltering consumers. Also, as we noted in the intro, inflation outpaces wage growth for two years and has crushed households, forcing many to drain savings and rack up enormous credit card debt in a high-rate environment. 

Hollie Ernst, a single mother of two daughters from Oak Park, Illinois, said she traded down name-brand toothpaste for generic cheaper ones. The 48yo single mother of two daughters has stopped buying Aveeno lotion because of the high price and uses Vaseline instead. 

“Cash doesn’t stretch as far as it used to,” said Ernst, adding she still has to use her credit card to make ends meet despite reducing her supermarket bill. She said, “I just accepted that’s the way it is.”

Ernst is just one of the tens of millions of Americans suffering while the Biden administration parades around the country, touting the successes of ‘Bidenomics.’ New credit card data on Monday showed debt-funded consumers hit a brick wall. 

Some Americans have been forced into a Venezuelan-like lifestyle as ‘dumpster dining‘ takes off to save on grocery bills. The more fortunate consumers have been forced to trade down from Walmart to Dollar Tree for groceries. 

… and wait until September rolls around, when millions of Americans will be forced to begin repaying their student loans.

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) said Monday that he will be the Republican co-sponsor of an amendment to the 2024 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) that aims to block the provision of cluster bombs to Ukraine.

The amendment was introduced by Rep. Sara Jacobs (D-CA) and is co-sponsored by Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Pramila Jayapal (D-WA), and Rep. Jim McGovern (D-MA).

“I’m going to be the Republican co-sponsor of the Jacobs amendment before the House Rules Committee,” Gaetz said on his podcast.

The amendment reads: “Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no military assistance shall be furnished for cluster munitions, no defense export license for cluster munitions may be issued, and no cluster munitions or cluster munitions technology shall be sold or transferred.”

Gaetz said that the NDAA will be voted on this week in the House. “We have an opportunity with bipartisanship to stand against the war-mongering Bidens,” he said.

Cluster bombs spread small submunitions over large areas, many of which do not explode on impact, making them a hazard for civilians who can come across them years or even decades later. Because of their indiscriminate nature, cluster munitions are banned by over 100 countries, including many of the US’s top NATO allies.

“Children will be left without limbs and without parents because of this decision by Joe Biden if we do not work together in a bipartisan fashion to stop it,” Gaetz said.

While there is an effort to block the shipment of cluster bombs to Ukraine, they could already be on the way. The Pentagon announced they were providing cluster munitions in the form of 155mm artillery rounds using the Presidential Drawdown Authority, which allows Biden to ship weapons to Ukraine directly from US stockpiles.

Biden has defended his decision to arm Ukraine with cluster munitions by saying both Ukraine and the US are running low on ammunition. Colin Kahl, undersecretary of defense for policy, said the US will arm Ukraine with “hundreds of thousands” of the munitions.

Corporate media outlets frequently promote ‘climate doom’ narratives to their readership. Last week was a perfect example of the doomsayers working in what appeared to be a concerted effort by citing a climate model that not even the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration could validate to sound the alarm about the ‘hottest days ever’ on Earth. 

Following the media hysteria about the world overheating and imminent climate disaster unless we give up combustion engine cars for electric ones, we were surprised that by the end of last week, The Wall Street Journal published an op-ed by environmental attorney Steve Milloy titled “Hottest Days Ever? Don’t Believe It.” 

While The New York Times told its readership, “Human-caused climate change is making high temperatures more common and intensifying the dryness that fuels catastrophic wildfires,” we wonder how devastating those wildfires have been in the US this season. If we listen to the doomsayers, it sounds like wildfires are uncontrollably spreading across the US. 

However, climate change contrarian Tony Heller tweeted Sunday new data from the National Interagency Fire Center that shows since January, 25,163 wildfires have burned 702,608 acres across. These numbers are below the 10-year average of 28,459 wildfires and 2,339,013 acres burned for this time of year ending on July 7. 

Heller tweeted, “US forest fire burn acreage through July 7 is at historic lows and less than one-third of the ten-year average. You will not hear this reported by @NPR or the @nytimes.”

And Heller might be right. Corporate media will dare not share these stats because it goes against the narrative of imminent climate doom so a ‘green’ agenda can be ushered in.

Europe’s electric vehicle industry faces pressure from imports of vehicles from China, which dominates the supply chain for raw materials for batteries, Jean-Dominique Senard, chairman of France’s automaker Renault, told Reuters in an interview this weekend.

“When I talk about a Chinese storm, I’m talking about the strong pressure today related to Chinese (electric) vehicle imports into Europe,” Senard told Reuters.

“We are capable of making electric vehicles, but we are fighting to ensure the safety of our supplies.”

Europe and the United States have been looking to reduce their dependence on China for supply of critical minerals and rare earth elements in order to reduce the risk of an energy transition slowdown if geopolitical tensions further rise.  

Earlier this year, the EU and the U.S. agreed to start talks on a Critical Minerals Agreement (CMA) on cooperation and trade facilitation.

Yet, the Chinese dominance and the recent Chinese restrictions of exports of two metals showed that Europe and the U.S. will require a lot of investments to create their own supply chains.

China’s EV success is the result of years of investments in the supply chain and raw materials, Senard said, noting that it would take billions of euros for Europe to replicate this.

Last week, China sent shockwaves through the supply chain and chip markets after announcing export controls on two rare earth metals, gallium and germanium, starting on August 1.

These critical rare earth metals are used in microchip production. Former vice-minister of commerce Wei Jianguo told China Daily that the export restriction on gallium and germanium was “just the beginning” in an escalating technology war with the United States.

Following the Chinese announcement, a spokesperson for VW, which uses gallium and germanium, told Reuters the German car-manufacturing giant was “ready to take measures together with its partners if necessary.”

France’s Renault is looking for alternative zero-emission car technologies, its chairman told Reuters this weekend.

“We’re looking for alternatives to avoid paralyzing the country if, for example, we run out of batteries,” Senard told Reuters.

Keynesian policies are damaging what they were intended to support. No example is more evident than the United States. A few years ago, in 2021, I had a conversation with Judy Shelton where she said that the recovery would be much stronger without the stimulus package, and she was right. Massive government spending and currency printing have left a much weaker labor market and poorer citizens.

In June, nonfarm payrolls increased by 209,000, the smallest advance since the end of 2020, after two consecutive downward revisions in the prior months, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). If we look at employment statistics beyond the headline unemployment rate, we can see that the labor force participation rate was 62.6 percent for the fourth consecutive month, and the employment-population ratio, at 60.3 percent, was unchanged over the month, according to the BLS. Both measures remain below pre-pandemic levels (63.3% and 61.1%, respectively) after years of enormous entitlement and spending programs.

Workers are not satisfied, and there is a reason for it.

All the money printing has created elevated inflation and a recovery where the United States has seen 26 consecutive months of negative real wage growth. We have not seen such a negative recovery for American workers in decades.

U.S. citizens are surviving on record levels of debt. Credit card debt, according to the Federal Reserve, reached a record high in the first quarter of 2023, while personal savings as a percentage of disposable income remain well below pre-pandemic levels at 4.6%, a massive 44.7% decline from the figure at the end of 2019. Real retail and food service sales bounced after the re-opening of the economy but remain below the April 2022 peak and are down in six of the last seven months.

It is no surprise that the University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index is still 40% below the level prior to the COVID crisis slump.

We have to put these poor figures in the context of a so-called “stimulus” that built a federal deficit that surpassed the $7 trillion mark between 2020 and the first quarter of 2023. We often read the MMT nonsense that deficits are reserves for the private sector and a tool for growth and prosperity.

The reality is that American workers are much worse off and need to work harder to make ends meet as the inflationary tax eats away at their savings and wages.

Of course, the excuse is to say that without the massive U.S. government spending plan, things would be much worse, but that is typical counterfactual nonsense. These large government spending plans were not created to mitigate a weak recovery, but as a tool to strengthen and accelerate it. And the reality is that the recovery is weaker than the historical trend, real wage growth is negative, and debt is much higher. Thus, in terms of return on invested capital, the stimulus plan has detracted from a recovery that was already evident simply because of the re-opening of the economy.

We can also argue that the stimulus plan financed with newly created currency in the middle of a lockdown has been the main cause of inflation, as the studies of Claudio Borio and others have demonstrated (“an upsurge in money growth preceded the inflation flare-up, and countries with stronger money growth saw markedly higher inflation,” BIS Bulletin, No. 67, January 26, 2023).

Why am I discussing these figures? Because the backlash from these stimulus plans will likely lead to a recession, the government will present itself again as the solution with yet another multi-trillion-dollar misguided measure. However, this time the ability to increase the deficit is simply not there, as even the most optimistic estimates see a $14 trillion accumulated deficit through 2032 with the current budget proposals.

The next stimulus plan may lead to a huge debt-deflation spiral Japan-style if population aging and de-industrialization continue, or even worse, stagflation if the government decides again to use the misguided stimulus checks. You got $1,000 from the government, and the inflationary tax took $3,000 from you.

It is evident that we have reached the point of debt saturation, where new stimulus packages simply generate no multiplier effect but make citizens poorer until the next one makes things even worse.

Someday, policymakers may start to realize that progress comes from saving and prudent investment, not spending and debt.

A Bank of England (BoE) digital pound will be a “complete restructure” of the current financial system and can give the government more control on how people use their money, a financial analyst warns.

Some 130 countries are exploring a central bank digital currency (CBDC), according to the Atlantic Council.

The Bank of England (BoE) and the Treasury are currently considering feedback on how to lay the groundwork for a digital pound, nicknamed “Britcoin” by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak when he was chancellor.

A decision is yet to be made on whether or not to launch a digital pound. But if the plan goes ahead, it could be issued in just a few years’ time to complement physical cash.

Arguing against a retail CBDC, writer and financial analyst Susie Violet Ward said to NTD’s “British Thought Leaders” programme that a centrally controlled digital currency could lead to the curtailing of freedom, and that citizens have not been given enough information to enable robust debate.

If Britcoin is launched, it will be issued by the BoE and backed by the Treasury. Private firms, such as Fintech companies or banks, are expected to provide customers with digital wallets—computer or phone apps that are needed to manage transactions of the digital currency.

Unlike decentralised cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin, the digital pound won’t offer anonymity, which provides privacy but on the downside can also be exploited by criminals.

The infrastructure would also be programmable, enabling app providers to offer extra functions such as budgeting tools.

Ms. Ward said it could mean “they could tell you where to spend your money, what to spend it on, and potentially, if it expires.”

The BoE and the government have said that they won’t have access to users’ personal data “except for law enforcement agencies under limited circumstances, prescribed in law, and on the same basis as currently with other digital payments,” and that the bank won’t initiate any programmable functions.

But Ms. Ward is dubious that it would prevent the system from being used to control people’s spending behaviour. Digital wallet providers will be “subject to the law,” she said. So if the government wants to shut down or stop a transaction, they would have the power to sanction government-prohibited exchange.

Referencing the Chinese regime’s social credit system and COVID-19 restrictions across the world, Ms. Ward expressed worries that often “ill-informed” government agenda may lead to “all sorts of” restrictions, such as potential climate policy-related spending bans.

“They could stop you from buying meat. They could stop you from going on holiday. If they think that you’ve flown on too many holidays, they could stop you from flying. There’s all sorts of … it depends on the government agenda at the time. And who knows what they could come up with in the future?” she said of the possible scenarios.

Ms. Ward acknowledged that similar risks are already inherent in the currently system, in which most payments are made digitally. But she believes there will be more “ease of use” with a CBDC system.

Under the current financial system, “if they [the government] wanted to close down your bank account or take away your money, they could do it; it would just be more convoluted.  This would make it a lot easier,” she said.

She also believes that cash will be phased out despite the BoE’s statement that it would continue to issue cash “for as long as people want to keep using it.”

Ms. Ward criticised the BoE and the government for making the public consultation documents too hard for “the majority of the public” to understand, and said that media outlets haven’t provided enough coverage to help people understand the issue.

The expiring date of digital money has been the featured in some of the international debate. The World Bank has studied the effects of expiring money, and the concept was also explored by the Chinese regime and in a paper published by the Bank of Canada.

Increased Use of ‘Private Money’

The BoE joined the global trend of CBDC creation as the use of cash—the only type of state-issued money in the UK—declined dramatically over the years.

According to BoE Deputy Governor Jon Cunliffe, around 95 percent of money used in the UK today is through bank deposits, which is private money created by commercial banks. Big tech’s contribution of an under-regulated private digital money market have also added to central banks’ concerns that they may lose control of their monetary systems.

The BoE has argued that a CBDC could help maintain trust in money and protect the UK’s financial system.

However, peers at the House of Lords Economic Affairs Committee have not been convinced that a CBDC is necessary to solve the problem.

“Private entities of a size that can compete with the existing payments systems can and should be regulated,” the peers said in a report published last year.

The report said that while the government and the BoE should keep looking into the issue, the committee was “yet to hear a convincing case for why the UK needs a retail CBDC.”

The committee said that while a CBDC “may provide some advantages,” its introduction would also brings risks including “state surveillance of people’s spending choices, financial instability as people convert bank deposits to CBDC during periods of economic stress, an increase in central bank power without sufficient scrutiny, and the creation of a centralised point of failure that would be a target for hostile nation state or criminal actors.”

Speaking to the committee at a hearing on July 4,  financial services minister Andrew Griffith said he believes the UK should “proceed cautiously” with regard to CBDC.

Hungary refuses to implement the EU’s migrant relocation plans, will not accept mandatory quota, and has no desire to build “migrant ghettos” or migrant camps in the country, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán stated on Friday during the Hungarian-Austrian-Serbian migration summit in Austria’ capital city of Vienna.

“We will not accept the mandatory quota nor will we accept the obligation to build migrant ghettos and camps. We will find a legal and political way to ensure that Hungary does not implement the latest decision from Brussels,” said Orbán during the summit.

“The situation is sad, but Hungary must defend itself not only against illegal migrants and people smugglers, but also against Brussels, and we will do so,” he added.

Orbán’s remarks come after the EU appears to be set to move forward with plans for the mandatory relocation of migrants across Europe, with member states who reject taking in migrants having to pay €20,000 per migrant.

Hungary will not implement Brussels’ #migration decisions. We will not accept mandatory quotas and we will not build migrant ghettos. Hungary first! 🇭🇺🇭🇺🇭🇺 pic.twitter.com/7FWbDHN0Cc

— Orbán Viktor (@PM_ViktorOrban) July 7, 2023

He also touted what he described as the Hungarian model, which he says the EU is now trying to throw to the wayside despite its effectiveness in reducing mass immigration.

“The Hungarian model, which is effective, is based on a very simple idea. No one is allowed to enter Hungary until their asylum application has been assessed. You can only enter if the application you have submitted has a positive answer. Until then, you cannot enter the territory of the country. This is the Hungarian model, this is what works, and I believe that it should be adopted by all the countries of the European Union,” said the Hungarian prime minister.

“Unfortunately, this is not what is happening. Now, a regulation has been adopted in Brussels that imposes mandatory quotas and obliges member states to build refugee camps and migrant ghettos. This is bad not only for Hungary, ladies and gentlemen, but also for you Austrians,” he added.

Orbán also outlined that Hungary is facing tremendous numbers of migrants at its border but the EU has little interest in stopping these migratory flows.

“We are not only protecting Hungary, we are protecting the whole of Europe, including Austria, from illegal immigrants. Last year, we were protecting the whole of Europe, along the whole of Europe’s borders. A total of 330,000 illegal migrants were stopped. Of these, 270,000 were stopped at the Hungarian-Serbian border,” said Orbán.

The Hungarian leader recently made similar remarks about “migrant ghettos” while speaking on Kossuth Radio, saying: “So, we have been told that Hungary must provide tens of thousands of places for migrants. This will become a ghetto, a refugee camp, a migrant ghetto. Now I am fighting against this with every means at my disposal. And we have no intention of implementing these decisions. We are saying this openly.”

Orbán’s Fidesz party is now rallying together in total opposition to the migrant quota scheme, with MEP Tamás Deutsch stating that his country will not implement the European Union’s planned measures on the mandatory resettlement quota and migrant ghettos while speaking on state station Kossuth Radio on Sunday.

The MEP said Brussels was abusing its power to attack Hungary and initiate all kinds of political punitive measures because it considers the Hungarian model of dealing with illegal migrants to be legally questionable. The MEP also said that Hungary is being bullied by Brussels.

He continued by noting that “we are Europe’s defenders, since last year Hungary stopped more than a quarter of a million illegal migrants at the Serbian-Hungarian border, while in the last half decade we have prevented the entry of 1 million migrants seeking to enter Europe illegally, making the country a ‘leader in the ranking’.”

Deutsch said that “they want to force a scandalous new European solution down Hungary’s throat, the reason being that the multicultural ideology in Western Europe has collapsed, and the Willkommenskultur, the practice of welcoming migrants and giving illegal migration the green light, has had disastrous consequences.”

He added that Europeans see this every day in France, where there is a civil war, and recalled that not so long ago there were mass sexual assaults during the New Year’s Eve event in front of the Cologne Cathedral, as well as the terrorist attacks in Brussels and Paris.

On the new legislative package, the MEP said that illegal migrants already in Western Europe would be forcibly relocated to Hungary when they become too much of a burden, with tens of thousands of migrants a year being provided with accommodation and food to university dormitory standards, and if there are too many applicants at their borders, the processing of their asylum applications would be left to Hungarians, among others.

He warned that migrant ghettos would be created in the Hungarian cities of “Paks, Baja, Esztergom, three quarters of Dunaújváros (three medium-sized Hungarian cities)”, which would not be closed, meaning that resettled migrants would be able to move freely in and out, thus posing a threat to public safety and public health.
