Face..

 

ALL face coverings in public will be banned under a Reform Government, Zia Yusuf      a British politician serves as the Spokesperson for Home Affairs for Reform UK.

The party’s home affairs chief said he “personally supports” outlawing everything from burqas to hoods as part of a wider push to boost safety and integration.

He addressed the issue during a major speech in Dover, setting out Reform’s blueprint on immigration, policing, extremism and protecting Britain’s Christian heritage.

Mr Yusuf said too many offenders “opt out” of CCTV scrutiny by covering their faces and warned it leaves police struggling to identify violent people.

He said the public “instinctively feel unsafe” when confronted with masked strangers on the street at dusk.

Pressed by The Sun on whether he would support a burqa ban, he said: “I personally support a ban on all face coverings in public.”

Trade Deficit..

 

In a dramatic shift that has stunned Wall Street and sent shockwaves through international corridors of power, the U.S. trade deficit narrowed to its lowest level since 2009. 

Driven by a surge in domestic exports and a sharp contraction in imports following the White House’s executive reinstatement of aggressive tariffs, the deficit fell to $29.4 billion in October—a nearly 40% monthly decline that defies previous economic forecasts.
Buckle up, this is unreal!” Santelli told viewers. “In March, it was $136 billion. Right now, it’s a whisper under $30 billion. 

We haven’t been that small in a long time.”
The October contraction represented a 39% drop from September’s $48.1 billion gap. The primary drivers were a significant cooling of foreign imports and a resilient performance in U.S. exports, particularly in the commodities sector.

Unionize..

 

Nevada is the only state where people can legally purchase sex, and now sex workers at one of the state's oldest brothels are fighting to become the nation's first to be unionized.

Sex work, and the employment rights of the those who do it, remains a largely taboo topic worldwide. Prostitution is only legal in a handful of countries, including Germany, and organizing efforts vary. 

In Spain, where prostitution is unregulated, the government approved a union for sex workers in 2018 but a court quickly outlawed it, saying it made the exploitation of prostitutes legal.

"All workers are guaranteed certain human decencies and dignities, and the right to organize is one of those," said Marc Ellis, state president of the Nevada Communications Workers of America. Just a thought.

Reason..

Loneliness..

Loneliness is the distressing feeling that occurs when your need for social contact and relationships is not met. It is distinct from being alone; while solitude can be peaceful, loneliness is a perceived state of disconnection from others. 

• Emotional Loneliness: The absence of a deep, nurturing relationship or a "best" friend to share intimate feelings with.
• Social Loneliness: Lacking a wider social network or feeling like you aren't part of a community or group.
• Existential Loneliness: A fundamental sense of separation from the world or others, even when people are physically present. 

Chronic loneliness is now recognized as a major public health crisis, comparable to the risks of smoking or obesity. 

• Physical Health: It is linked to a 29% increased risk of heart disease and a 32% increased risk of stroke.
• Mental Health: There is a strong correlation between loneliness and anxiety, depression, and cognitive decline.
• Physiological Response: It can trigger a stress response in the body, increasing cortisol levels and weakening the immune system. 
• This can be averted.  Just a thought.

Verification..

 

Iowa senators approved a number of bills Wednesday related to citizenship verification using federal information.

The Senate approved Senate File 2203 in a 34-13 vote Wednesday, requiring the secretary of state to verify the citizenship status of each registered voter using the federal Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) database. 

If a person is not verified as a U.S. citizen through the SAVE database check, the Secretary of State’s office would provide notice to the county auditor, who would then designate this individual as having “unconfirmed” citizenship status.

The county auditor would be required to send notice to an individual about their status, providing information about how they can provide proof of citizenship, contact the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services to correct information in the SAVE database, or to allow them to cancel their voter registration request. 

If a person does not provide proof of citizenship within 90 days of being designated as “unconfirmed,” their voter registration would be canceled.

Axel..

Dr. Richard Axel, a Nobel Prize-winning scientist, said he is stepping down as co-director of Columbia University's Zuckerman Mind Brain Behavior Institute on the heels of his association with notorious sex predator Jeffrey Epstein drawing public attention.  

Axel has been a Columbia University professor for 53 years and will continue his lab's research at the Zuckerman institute, he said. Axel, in his statement, said he will resign as an investigator from Columbia's Howard Hughes Medical Institute.

In a December 2007 New York magazine profile of Epstein, Axel is quoted saying about him, "He has the ability to make connections that other minds can't make."
"He is extremely smart and probing. He can very quickly acquire information to think about a problem and also to identify biological problems without having all the data that a scientist would have," Axel said in the article. "He also has an extremely short attention span.

Comment:
The Dems are working hard on the Epstein files. Wonder why? 
The benefit is to create another issue away from the border protection, the criminal deportation, the inflation that is going down, the prices of gasoline and food that decrease dramatically.

The " Plus"..

 

Hillary Clinton abruptly ended her press availability Thursday after a reporter asked why Ghislaine Maxwell attended her daughter Chelsea's wedding, RadarOnline.com can report.

While taking questions after her lengthy deposition, one reporter asked why Maxwell, the imprisoned lover and accomplice of Epstein, was present at Chelsea's 2010 wedding to Marc Mezvinsky.

"Can I ask, why was Ghislaine Maxwell invited to your daughter Chelsea Clinton’s wedding?" the reporter asked. "She’d already been mentioned in a civil lawsuit by Virginia Giuffre before that. Jeffrey Epstein had already been convicted.

Clinton scowled and gave a short reply, explaining, "She came as the plus one, the guest of someone who was invited," and then immediately ended the Q&A session without taking further questions.

Maxwell has said in the past she attended the wedding with her then-boyfriend, tech billionaire Ted Waitt.

Osaka..

An anonymous donor has given 21 kilograms of gold bullion, worth about $3.6 million, to the city of Osaka. The donor asked that the gift be used only for water and drainage works. 

City officials said the gold was delivered last November and formally accepted after internal checks. The donation was made without conditions and with a clear request for anonymity.

Failures are becoming more frequent. City leaders say the donation arrives at a critical moment.

Osaka Mayor Hideyuki Yokoyama said the scale of the donation was unlike anything the city had seen before.

“I was honestly lost for words,” he told reporters. “Repairing ageing water pipes requires enormous funding. This support is deeply appreciated.”

The mayor confirmed that the city would fully respect the donor’s wish to remain unnamed. He added that all procedures would follow municipal and national rules.

Pass-Port..

 

Bien-Aime, who is originally from Haiti and was naturalized in 2006, was elected mayor of North Miami in 2019. He resigned in 2022 to run for a seat on the Miami-Dade County Commission, but lost the election.

In a civil complaint reviewed by NBC News and NBC Miami, the DOJ claims Bien-Aime first entered the United States in 1997 using a fraudulent, “photo-switched” passport under the name Jean Philippe Janvier.

In July 31, 2000, an immigration judge determined he entered the country fraudulently and ordered him removed to Haiti, according to the complaint. He appealed the removal order at the time, but later withdrew the appeal, representing that he had returned to live in Haiti. But federal authorities allege he never went back to Haiti and instead remained in the United States under the name Philippe Bien-Aime.

Department of Homeland Security records — including fingerprint comparisons — show that the person who naturalized as Philippe Bien-Aime is the same individual who was previously ordered removed from the United States under the name Philippe Janvier, according to the complaint.

Loophole..

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development on Thursday proposed a rule requiring every resident in HUD-funded housing to provide proof of U.S. citizenship or eligible immigration status, a move the agency said would close what it called a long-standing loophole in public housing programs.

For too long, illegals and ineligibles have taken spots in public housing through the mixed-status roommate loophole, while Americans were forced to wait,” Turner said in a statement. “We have zero tolerance for pushing aside hardworking U.S. citizens while enabling others to exploit decades-old loopholes.”

HUD said the proposed rule would require documentation from all residents, regardless of age, and would remove provisions that allow individuals to decline to submit verification or continue receiving assistance indefinitely despite ineligible status. 

The agency said it expects the change could redirect up to $218 million in housing assistance to eligible households currently on waiting lists.

Invisible..

 

An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations

, commonly known as The Wealth of Nations, is a foundational work of classical economics published by Scottish philosopher Adam Smith on March 9, 1776. 

It is widely considered the "bible of capitalism," as it provided the first comprehensive system of political economy and established economics as a modern academic discipline. 

The book introduces several revolutionary concepts that still underpin modern economic thought: 

• The Invisible Hand: Smith's most famous metaphor, suggesting that individuals pursuing their own self-interest unintentionally promote the good of society through market competition.
• Division of Labor: Smith argued that breaking production into specialized tasks (using his famous pin factory example) drastically increases productivity.
• Free Markets (Laissez-faire): He advocated for minimal government intervention in the economy, suggesting that markets are self-regulating through supply and demand.
• Critique of Mercantilism: Smith attacked the then-prevalent view that a nation's wealth was measured by its gold and silver reserves. Instead, he argued that wealth is the total production of goods and services (equivalent to modern GDP).

Originally published in two volumes, the treatise consists of five individual books: 

Gates..

Microsoft cofounder Bill Gates pulled out of India’s AI Impact Summit just hours before he was scheduled to address the event with a keynote speech. The Bill Gates Foundation said in a statement that the decision was made “to ensure the focus remains on the AI Summit’s key priorities.”

Rumors had been swirling around Gates’ attendance throughout the week due to renewed scrutiny over his ties to Jeffrey Epstein. However, just days ago, the foundation confirmed the tech leader was still planning to attend the event.

Gates’ withdrawal comes weeks after the U.S. Department of Justice published emails revealing contact between Gates Foundation staff and Epstein, the late financier and convicted sex offender. The correspondence suggested the two had a series of meetings following Epstein’s release from prison, focused on Gates’ charitable ambitions. Gates has maintained that his dealings with Epstein were limited to discussions about his charitable work and has said meeting him was an error of judgment.

Free Ride..

 

A resurfaced video of former President Barack Obama from 2009 is drawing renewed attention for its discussion of immigration policy, citizenship, and border control, reigniting debate as federal enforcement operations intensify under the current administration. 

In the speech, Obama emphasized that citizenship is not automatic and highlighted the need for controlled immigration, framing his remarks as part of a comprehensive approach that balances enforcement with humane treatment for long-term residents.

In the video, Obama said, “This is not going to be a free ride, it’s not going to be some instant amnesty. What’s going to happen is you are going to pay a significant fine, you are going to learn English, you are going to, you are going to go to the back of the line so that you don’t get ahead of somebody who was in Mexico City applying legally. 

But after you’ve done these things over a certain period of time, you can earn your citizenship so that it’s not—it’s not something that is guaranteed or automatic. You’ve got to earn it, but over time you give people an opportunity.
