government. this was a u. s. funded laboratory. so if indeed this is the lab that is responsible for the cobra league, i would seen that the u. s. government was also complicit in what took place now that's not being widely acknowledged in american media. this narrative, blaming china for the pandemic is starting to play a role in the divided nature of us politics. democrats betray doctors, algae as a euro. republicans are now calling for his firing on saying that he somehow involved in some kind of chinese conspiracy. there's all kinds of divisions in the united states. there's politicization of this that fits in with anti china hysteria . but at the end of the day, it is in the interests of all humanity to get to the bottom of the coven. 19 pandemic. find out why it happened, it, make sure nothing like it ever happened. again. many observers around the world are hoping that political agendas can be pushed aside, so that facts can be reached and about how to keep the world safe and healthy and prevent something like the cobit pande

u. s. government u. s. officials continue to hurl allegations against tick tock as we saw today's congressional hearings are. it's also worth noting that a 150000000 people use tick tock around the world, and that number continues to rise despite the heated allegations leveled from voices in the united states. however, a poll did indicate that 40 percent of americans would favor a ban on tick tock. now there have been a number of us states that have passed a law for bidding tick tock from being used on government devices. we saw the scenes today in congress. the heated exchanges that went on so the controversy continues surrounding this social media app. legal media analysts line all believes all social media platforms are equally vulnerable to data breaches, including those based in the us. but tech talks just being picked on because it's chinese. and this c e o acquitted himself splendidly better than anything i and i as a lawyer, i'm watching the way he answered the questions very, very well. may i ask

u. s. government's interest. so that's fallacious, you know, bringing this out and trying to fear monger people into believing that the potential is there, goes against everything that we say we stand for in america. the rule of law, presumption of innocence. the idea that you have a trial before your summarily lynched. i mean, this is nonsense. you can say all these things about what you're for afraid of everyone is afraid. the question is, what do we, how do we go forward already the u. s. is erected a tech wall on hardware saying that china shouldn't have access to chips. they shouldn't have access to chip making machines. now they want to extended to software. where does it stop? how, how big do these walls have to be before people start being afraid? i would it still being about it more walls make people more afraid. so when you're talking about trying to find a way for it, i see tick tock as trying to do that. and they've said that they've come up with a plan. they're calling it project, texas. they want to

u. s. government to prevent a run on other banks. if customers have more money than $250000.00 deposited in those institutions, they say it is critical to keep the u. s. economy on a steady footing. the u. s. president does note that there is growing concern about the situation with the banking sector. and he told reporters on sunday evening that he's going to talk to the nation about it on monday. and economists and financial analyst, robert scott says, the federal reserves raising of interest rates has led to the banking sector issues that has an obligation treasury in the f d. i see actually in this case the ones that made the announcement, they have an obligation to protect depositors and the banking system. but that banks a larger question, is the fed going to get the message and slow down this program, a tightening of the interest rates in the economy. the concern is that the stat is going to pitch the economy into a recession. that will cause millions of job losses and that will get the poorest. and the hardest, black and brow

u. s. officials also say that they'll be supporting depositors of signature bank, which they revealed was closed by new york regulators on sunday. out there wasn't jordan reports, not from washington dc. the u. s. government to control of a bank that did a lot of business with crypto currency firms on sunday, this comes after the failure of silicon valley bank and california. on friday, the u. s. president joe biden released a statement late on sunday, saying that he had ordered the federal government to make certain that the customers of both signature bank in new york state and silicon valley bank in california would get all of their money. this is a big deal because normally when you have an account with us bank, the is assurance only covers the 1st $250000.00. however, the emergency program now being launched by the treasury department and other federal economic agencies will cover all of the customer's deposits in those 2 banks. that way, the people who use those banks to run businesses, for example, can pay their bills and make payroll. now, there is a lot of controversy already over this emergency program, even though the federal government says that this will not be a cost to taxpayers. some econo

u. s. government hoc. well. okay, so you bring it to the u. s. government, let's bring it further in the morning and dc here. joe biden has come up with a statement addressing that public essentially saying nothing to see here, move along, your money is safe but, but then, you know, when people, when often questions, i mean, the guy legged it out the back door just now. i mean, is it possible to bite and in some way is trying to avoid what could be a dire truth or i don't think any answers for it. i don't think anyone really knows what's going on. i'm really big suspended stocks on a lot of small cap banks. i mean to be behind 250000000000 sounds like a lot of money. and of course it is a huge amount of money. but for us institutions is actually quite a small top 50 by 4. they have so many banks. so really, i think they just, they just don't really have a clue what's going on. we saw the vast quincy of money, the hike of inflation rights without any one seemingly understand what the consequences are if doing that, but you talk about the consequ

u. s. government. it is a mouthpiece for the americans. it is funded by the american government and american arms manufacturers. white is allowed to sit at the center of the australian government when it has so much foreign funding. i don't know if it were funded by anybody else. it would not be where it is at. many australians are understandably outraged by this blatant example of war mongering propaganda with the countries former prime minister, calling it a grievous and provocative to day sydney morning herald and h, front page stories on australia's supposed war risk with china represents the most egregious and provocative news presentation of any newspaper i have witnessed in over 50 years of active public life. it is way worse that the illustrated sampan shown to be coming from china and the build up to the war in vietnam in the 19 sixty's. the extent of the boys and muse abuses, i believe, unparalleled in modern australian journalism. after all, australians are essentially being doused an antique

u. s. government to destroy the pipeline. here's julian barnes. well, we started asking who might these sabbath tours b, or if we couldn't answer that, who might they be aligned with? right, could they be pro russian saboteurs? could they be other savage tours? and the more we talk to officials who had access to intelligence, the more we saw this theory gaining traction. who and my initial thought that this could be pro russian savage tours, turned out to be wrong. and we learned that it was most likely a pro ukrainian group here. so in other words, a group of people who did this on behalf of ukraine. what, what do you or, and that makes you think that's what happened. my god, i should be very clear that we know who really very little right. this group remains mysterious and it remains the serious, not just us, but also to the u. s. government officials that we have spoken to us mainstream media seems to be very desperately trying to make the case that somehow the united states is not responsible. that seymour hersh, his mom shell revelations cann

u. s. government being one of them is this, you know, e s g mindset of doing things for this kind of will, green, you know, sustainable development goal direction. but the, in the inherit hypocrisy on it shows that they don't even care about these things. at the core, i mean, you have the u. k and the united states arguing that nuclear weapons, gas, all these things that are like the core, the crux of what environmental us. think of the problem there. labeling as e s g compliant because well they use them to fight for freedom which allows them to fight for, you know, a bottle of the law like you can see how they can abstractly argue that the biggest polluters in the planet are allowed to keep doing these things, and you can see the same gang played with, you know, it's the same concept. we're ultimately germany should be accepting this reality because it's better for the world standing. and that's not even the truth. right? and so, and in, in the point about germany and, and the, or rather the company's going over the united states. that i think again, the point about the for knowledge or
