USA - A bill in New Jersey that would’ve stripped parents and children of their right to informed consent by allowing them to object to mandatory vaccinations failed on Monday. Much to the chagrin of the tyrants who claim ownership over the bodies of others, the bill that would have eliminated religious exemptions to mandatory vaccinations failed to pass the New Jersey state legislature. According to reports, the bill was canceled in the Senate before the vote because lawmakers knew they lacked the passing votes. The proponents of the bill vowed to reintroduce it on Tuesday but this gives opponents a new time frame on the public hearing and voting process.

USA - As we move further into 2020, solar activity dwindles. This year, solar activity will be marked as the lowest in over 200 years. The low in the sun’s 11-year cycle will also have at least some repercussions for the climate here on Earth. That means “space weather” will be favorable for exploration beyond Earth, yet it could also very well mean we should prepare for odd or different weather patterns. When solar activity gets really low, it can have the effect of a “mini ice age.” The period between 1645 and 1715 was marked by a prolonged sunspot minimum, and this corresponded to a downturn in temperatures in Europe and North America.

EUROPE - If you were ever in doubt over the European Union’s desire to move towards the status of self-styled super-state, look no further than today's eurocrat swearing-in summit. Ursula von der Leyen, the European Commission’s president, and her band of 26 deputies were shipped from the EU executive’s Brussels-based headquarters 132 miles to Luxembourg to give a “solemn undertaking”.

GERMANY - Germany has awarded Dutch shipyard Damen a contract to construct at least four new multi-role warships worth nearly 6 billion euros ($6.7 billion) in an alliance with its Bremen-based partner Luerssen, the armed forces and budget lawmakers said on Tuesday. The ship tender is one of Germany's biggest arms projects, along with a contract for the MEADS missile defense system and the new Franco-German fighter jet (FCAS), underlining Berlin's efforts to increase its military capabilities. Lawmakers told Reuters that about two-thirds of the production will take place at Luerssen's shipyards and other sites in northern Germany. "The decision for the MKS 180 to be mainly built by the Luerssen Group and thus in Germany is a good decision which strengthens Germany as a marine and shipyard location," said Eckhardt Rehberg, chief budget lawmaker from Chancellor Angela Merkel's conservatives.

ISRAEL - Individuals responsible for the murder of Jews in the Holocaust and in pogroms, as well as antisemitic ideologists of the Ukrainian National movement have recently been the subject of public glorification in Ukraine. In response to this, and to the publicity in the Ukrainian press, the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs expresses its condemnation of these phenomena and emphasizes the following: Preserving the memory of the Holocaust and the battle against antisemitism – including the glorification of antisemites and murderers of Jews - are not an internal matter of any country. On the contrary, those are essential obligations and responsibilities of every Israeli diplomat. It represents a shared moral duty to Israel and its many allies across the world.​

MIDDLE EAST - The liberal world is aghast. President Donald Trump has done something that repudiates the very rules of nature by which Western progressives live. Faced with a military general intent on ramping up the decades-long war of conquest he had been commanding for his fanatically anti-Western regime, Trump liquidated him before he could murder anyone else. Cue liberal horror and outrage. Major General Qassem Soleimani – the man responsible for a vast infrastructure of global slaughter and oppression, and with blood on his hands from American and British soldiers, as well as Iranians, Iraqis, Syrians, Yemenis, Jews and others – was described in The New York Times after being annihilated by an American drone as "universally admired."...they viewed Soleimani as a murder victim to be mourned while Trump was the war criminal. "President Trump could not be more clear. On our watch, Iran will not get a nuclear weapon," said US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.

UK - Christian sites in Europe suffered a record number of attacks in the year 2019, with some 3,000 Christian churches, schools, cemeteries, and monuments vandalized, looted, or defaced. Reports compiling the anti-Christian acts during the year document a range of profanation including arson, defecation, desecration, looting, mockery, Satanism, theft, urination, and vandalism. “In most instances the perpetrators of these acts were unidentified, but the Observatory has documented that churches and other symbols of Christianity in Europe are targets for many groups — from Islamists to radical feminists, LGBT activists to anarchists and self-proclaimed Satanists,” Ms Fantini said. "While the violence overwhelmingly involves Roman Catholic sites and symbols, in Germany, Protestant churches have also been targeted. European governments and politicians, with a few exceptions, seem reluctant to address this problem,” Ms Fantini told Breitbart.

VATICAN - Emeritus Pope Benedict XVI has published a book with Guinean Cardinal Robert Sarah emphasizing the importance of priestly celibacy while resisting a push for the ordination of married men originating from the recent Vatican synod on the Amazon region. I believe that priestly celibacy “has great meaning” and is “indispensable in order for our journey toward God to remain the foundation of our life,” writes the former pontiff. According to Cardinal Sarah and the former pope, they observed “a strange media Synod that prevailed over the real Synod.” Do not to be “swayed” by “bad pleas, theatrics, diabolical lies, fashionable errors that want to devalue priestly celibacy,” they urge.

USA - About a month ago, on the first of December 2019, the World Health Organization (WHO) held the “Global Vaccine Safety Summit.” Dr Soumya Swaminathan openly admits “We really don’t have very good safety monitoring systems.” What? I thought vaccines had been PROVEN to be “SAFE and effective” and yet here is a top scientist admitting the exact opposite! Why did CNN not cover this shocking admission? Oh yeah, I almost forgot. Big Pharma vaccine manufacturers are their biggest advertising revenue… Why did Fox News not cover this shocking admission? Oh yeah, I almost forgot. Big Pharma vaccine manufacturers are their biggest advertising revenue…

GERMANY - Germany is still struggling to find its role in the world. But what does the world want from Germany? From Washington to Warsaw, Beijing to Brussels, many are wondering where Berlin's foreign policy is headed. On November 7, German Defence Minister Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer gave a keynote speech in Munich. After nearly four months in office, she wanted to present her ideas for German foreign and security policy.

GERMANY - German Chancellor Angela Merkel says the Nord Stream 2 is an economic project that will benefit large parts of Europe, criticizing US attempts to undermine it. Speaking to journalists in Moscow along with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Merkel argued that “sanctions are the wrong way to go.” Both leaders vowed that the gas pipeline project will be finished against all odds.

IRAN - The Iranian government’s admission on Saturday that it shot down a Ukrainian commercial airliner triggered widespread protests nationwide attended by hundreds chanting slogans against the regime and the former head of its foreign terrorist organization, Qasem Soleimani. An American airstrike eliminated Soleimani, officially the head of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Quds Force, in Baghdad this month. The IRGC is a US-designated foreign terrorist organization; Soleimani led Iran’s terrorism operations abroad and was particularly active in Iraq and Syria against American soldiers.

UK - “Prince Harry has every right to want to balance his responsibilities between the Royal family and his wife and young family,” one “highly decorated” Army figure remarked in comments to The Telegraph — “But first and foremost Harry was a commissioned officer who pledged allegiance to the Queen and the Queen is his grandmother, so when push comes to shove, Queen and country come first.” A former Royal Marine told Nigel Farage he's "disgusted" at his captain general Prince Harry and says Harry cannot "privatise the monarchy to earn millions." Farage Says Prince Harry Has ‘Let the Side Down’, Compares Meghan to Wallis Simpson.

USA - In a very thorough and revealing analysis of statistical industry payment data, ProPublica disclosed that more than 2,500 physicians have received at least half a million dollars apiece from drugmakers and medical device companies in the past five years alone, while more than 700 of those doctors received at least $1 million, and that doesn’t include money for research or royalties from inventions. The Western medical establishment has been set up as a business, and has tried to establish itself as the sole authority on health in order to maximize profits for its products. This is not conjecture, this is obvious fact, and the analysis above is one of many examples of it.

USA - Dr Foresman compared today’s medical training, which forces most doctors into huge debts, as “the indoctrination, almost the indentured servitude of the average physician” coming out of medical school. “Today’s doctor, they’re spending hundreds of thousands of dollars, and then when you go through medical school and residency, and you put your life on the line, you’ve been on call every four nights – you’ve had some of the worst nights of your life overnight in the ICUs, and I have, you do not like to come out of that training, and think you don’t have all the knowledge. So you start to act like you do. Even when you haven’t had training in that area.”
