UK - The British Library, the largest national library in the world by number of items catalogued, has made available its collection of 250 of the most rare and ancient religious texts online, many available to the public for the first time. According to Tuesday’s press release, the unparalleled online collection, titled “Discovering Sacred Texts,” is accessible online for free from around the world and includes access to an incredible range of texts, videos and curated articles, including one of the only copies of the Talmud that escaped public burnings suffered by most of the other Jewish law books during the Middle Ages. According to the press release, the online catalogue was designed for religious education students, teachers and lifelong learners to learn about Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Sikhism, Jainism, the Baha’i faith and Zoroastrianism.

UK - The United Kingdom's Supreme Court ruled "illegal" a parliamentary tactic used by PM Boris Johnson to ensure Brexit would be carried out on October 31, more than six months after Brexit was supposed to take effect. While the court wasn't ruling on Brexit, per se, the context of the situation makes it clear the ruling is really just the latest move from the UK's political class designed to postpone Brexit yet again.

UK - Boris Johnson's allies have warned Britain faces LA-style riots if Brexit is reversed. A senior cabinet minister last night said the country risked a "violent, popular uprising" if a second referendum overturned the original result. The Prime Minister's senior allies warned the UK faces civil unrest on the scale of the yellow vest protests in France over economic inequalities and Los Angeles riots in 1992.

USA - If US history is ever portrayed as it actually happened rather than the revisionism that has been taking place to delegitimize the American heritage, future generations will know just how badly the Democratic Party lied, used propaganda, and actually aided America's enemies! Today Democrat, Adam Schiff, who has launched a 3 year political vendetta attempting to unseat President Trump with nothing more than false allegations, lied to US citizens on live TV falsifying the contents of the transcripts of President Trump's phone conversation with the President of the Ukraine. Attempting to incriminate our President over a routine and completely legal phone call, Democrats falsely portrayed the content of what was said hoping that the low information voter will take their word instead of looking at the actual words that were exchanged right on the transcripts!

USA - Virginia college students insisted on camera that President Donald Trump should be impeached, but couldn't give one reason why when further pressed for clarification. Campus Reform Editor-in-Chief Cabot Phillips visited the campus of Marymount University in Arlington, Virginia, Wednesday. Phillips asked students if they believed Trump should be impeached and, if so, on what basis. Every single one of the students Phillips spoke to agreed with Pelosi, but none of them could coherently put together reasons as to why they believe impeaching Trump is the best course of action for the United States.

USA - Next year’s presidential election could be bruising for the politically polarized nation. Worker turnover because of “toxic” office cultures has already cost companies $223 billion in the past five years, up 24% from 2008 to 2012, according to findings released Wednesday from the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM).

USA - An annually released report by the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) estimates that illegal population living in the US has risen nearly two million in two years, now standing at about 14.3 million illegal aliens. FAIR analysts fault the increase in illegal aliens to an unsecured southern border, growing sanctuary city policies, widespread available US jobs with no nationwide E-Verify mandate, an increase in social welfare programs, exploitable asylum laws, and the ongoing promise of amnesty by GOP and Democrat lawmakers. The rise in the illegal population, FAIR analysts find, means illegal aliens are costing American taxpayers nearly $132 billion every year. That fiscal burden on Americans is set to grow even larger without major immigration-reducing reforms, according to the study.

EUROPE - The European Union has privately warned Iran that it will be forced to start withdrawing from the nuclear deal in November if Tehran goes ahead with its threat to take new steps away from the deal. Iran has already taken three separate calibrated steps away from the deal, and has warned it will take a fourth in November unless the US lifts economic sanctions. The warning to Iran, pre-agreed by the three EU signatories to the 2015 deal, was made at a meeting on Wednesday, and makes clear that the agreement is now on life support.

USA - It was a message the world needed to hear. In a place where the world was listening. And when President Donald Trump took the podium at the United Nations on Tuesday, he delivered it in a somber tone that underscored just how serious the situation is. “Wise leaders always put the good of their own people and their country first. The future does not belong to globalists, the future belongs to patriots,” he said, according to Fox News.

ISRAEL - Benjamin Netanyahu has up to six weeks to forge a coalition. Israel’s president has tasked Benjamin Netanyahu with forming a coalition government, throwing a lifeline to the incumbent prime minister after an inconclusive election threatened to end his political career. Reuven Rivlin’s offer does not guarantee Netanyahu will lead Israel’s next administration. Before that can happen, Netanyahu has up to six weeks to forge a majority coalition in Israel’s parliament. “The responsibility for forming the government will be handed to prime minister and Likud leader Benjamin Netanyahu,” the president’s office said in a statement. With a divided Knesset, the 69-year-old leader now faces an uphill battle to secure support from at least 61 of 120 lawmakers. Further complicating talks, Netanyahu also struck an agreement with rightwing and religious parties that back him to make sure they are part of any future government, something Gantz has sought to avoid.

MIDDLE EAST - The Groundwork Is Laid for a Vast New Conflict. The Middle East appears to be sliding into a war that may have already begun. At its center are archrivals Saudi Arabia and Iran, their proxies and US President Donald Trump. Regional stability hangs by a thread. The Middle East appears to be sliding into a war and it may even have already started. It is a new kind of war, a 21st century conflict for which there is no formal declaration of war, no clear fronts and a wide variety of battlefields. There are attacks the provenance of which may never be known, and while some of the fighting is conventional in nature, much of it is not and involves drones in the air and viruses in cyberspace. More than anything, it is a confusing war, in which nobody really has control, not even those who are ostensibly leading it.

USA - Nancy Pelosi and the House Democrats have begun impeachment proceedings against Donald Trump over his pressuring of Ukraine’s president to launch a corruption investigation against Joe Biden and his son. It is the first time impeachment proceedings have been launched since 1998 and Bill Clinton. Trump has called it a “witch-hunt” and “harassment”. From The New York Times: “Ms Pelosi said that Mr Trump’s reported actions, and his administration’s refusal to share details about the matter with Congress, have left the House no alternative outside of impeachment. The inquiry has the potential to reshape Mr Trump’s presidency and to cleave an already divided nation only a year before he plans to stand for re-election.”

GERMANY - Just off a wide boulevard in a leafy west Berlin suburb, the US-German friendship is alive and well. Americans play football, sail and dance with their German friends. The decades-old bond between the two countries is on full display. Trouble is, it's only a display. Opened in 1998, the Allied Museum, a free exhibition housed in an old US Army theater, offers a window into what once was — and a welcome escape from what is. Nearly 75 years after the end of World War II, the US-German relationship isn’t just moribund, it’s on life support. At both the official and unofficial level, the foundation that has supported the transatlantic alliance since the 1950s is crumbling. About 85 percent of Germans consider their country’s relationship with the US to be “bad” or “very bad,” according to a recent study, while a clear majority want Germany to distance itself from the US.

VATICAN - Pope Francis called on global leaders to join in on May 14, 2020 to sign a new Global Compact on Education that will lead to a ‘New Humanism’. Channeling Hillary Clinton's book, It Takes a Village, he wants to ‘educate’ all young people into becoming global citizens. (TN Editor)

In a renewed and enthusiastic endorsement of globalism, Pope Francis has announced he is hosting an initiative for a “Global Pact” to create a “new humanism.” The global event, set to take place at the Vatican on May 14, 2020, is themed Reinventing the Global Educational Alliance.

SWEDEN - The Cult of Greta Thunberg is an extremely disturbing one, and one which marks a new low in the drain-circling that Western civilisation seems bent on. Even if I happened to believe that the naturally occurring gas that each of us breathes out many thousands of times per day, and which plants use for photosynthesis, is going to end up being the death of us, I would still be profoundly disturbed by the use of this girl — who is very clearly mentally unstable — as the poster-child for the agenda.
