The Stasi spies who traded sex for secrets
In a rented apartment at a resort in the Swiss Alps, a gravely ill man lifts his gaze and looks his lover in the eyes. At first he seems unsure how to begin. During the war, he tells her, he was loosely involved in a plot to assassinate Hitler. Then, after the collapse of the Third Reich, he became an agent for the Red Army. But now he is so unwell that he must leave for the Soviet Union, where a specialist medical facility will give him the treatment he needs to survive. And she, a secretary in the office of the West German chancellor, is in deep trouble. What will her employers do when they find out he’s vanished and realise she has been sleeping with the enemy these past two years? No one will believe she didn’t know.
What If It’s True?
The U.S. government currently appears to be engaged in a slow-paced disclosure program. It is time for the rest of us to entertain the possibility that UFOs are extraterrestrial.
This summer marked the 75th anniversary of an event in the U.S. state of New Mexico. An unknown craft crashed in the prairie outside the town of Corona. The military from the nearby city of Roswell got involved and allegedly transported the debris to the air force base there.
Many have speculated about the true nature of what became known as the Roswell incident. The U.S. government said at the time that it was a weather balloon, later changing the story to a special balloon designed to spy on Soviet nuclear activities.
No conclusive evidence has ever been presented to back up either story, leaving the field open to speculation and private researchers such as the late Stanton Friedman. A nuclear physicist with a long career in classified military projects, Friedman spent the last few decades of his life investigating unidentified flying objects and alleged extraterrestrial visits to Earth.
As Joe Biden turns 80, the Democrats have a succession problem
Some think the president is too old to run for re-election, but his party lacks quality rivals to take his place
Joe Biden turns 80 today and he is said to be in excellent spirits. Aboard Air Force One this week, flying to and from various global summits, the Commander-in-Chief reportedly had a “spring in his step” thanks to last week’s midterm election results.
His party may just have lost the House of Representatives, yet the Democrats held the Senate. The Republican “red wave” did not come crashing in. The White House’s much-mocked electoral strategy – brushing off concerns about the economy and focusing on the twin threats of Trumpism and the abortion-stopping “far-Right” – appears to have been vindicated. Team Biden is now congratulating itself in particular on the timing of its “student debt forgiveness” programme – which is thought to have brought out large numbers of young voters.
CUPE, Ontario government reach deal; strike called off
A school strike has been averted in Ontario as education workers and the government reached a tentative agreement late Sunday afternoon.
The agreement comes after a weekend of intensive negotiations between the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) and the province.
Few details have been released about what is included in the tentative agreement; however CUPE has previously said the government had come to the table with a 3.59 per cent wage increase for workers.
The saga of an old French town – to Islamize or not?
Callac as a microcosm of an immense question of civilization now at stake in Europe.
A small town nestled among cow pastures. The café run by a social club, abandoned buildings, only elderly around. So when city council members heard about a program to “rejuvenate” the city, it seemed like a winning lottery ticket.
We are in Brittany, France, but we could be in Italy.
Except that what city leaders saw as an opportunity for rejuvenation, for others was evidence of a “Great Replacement” of French natives. The theory of the “Great Replacement” came to Renaud Camus during a visit to one of these small country towns, Vémars, in the Val d’Oise, at the home of François Mauriac. Camus saw the suburbs with veiled women, the aesthetic change of the province.
Kevin McCarthy says he will remove Mohammedan Rep. Ilhan Omar from committee over ‘anti-Semitic’ remarks
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy said when he becomes Speaker of the House again he’ll boot “Squad” member Rep. Ilhan Omar from her position on the House Foreign Affairs Committee over “anti-Semitic” remarks.
Ireland: Hundreds Protest After Male Migrants Smuggled Into Working Class Area
Hundreds took to the streets of a working-class area in Dublin, Ireland on Saturday after the country’s government moved a large number of male migrants into a former office block in the area.
The “smuggling” of a significant number of male migrants into a former office block in a working-class community in the Irish capital has provoked outrage from locals, with hundreds taking to the streets on Saturday as part of an impromptu protest against the influx.

Thanks, but no thanks, Elon! Trump says he is ‘staying’ on Truth Social despite Chief Twit restoring his Twitter account
Despite his reinstatement to short form social posting platform Twitter, former President Donald Trump – the owner of Truth Social – said he doesn’t ‘see any reason’ to rejoin the platform.
Several days ago, new Twitter owner Elon Musk polled the site’s users on Trump’s reinstatement – the Yes votes won out by close to four percent after more than 15 million people voted.
Musk tweeted: ‘The people have spoken. Trump will be reinstated.’
‘Avalanche’ of Illegals Ready to Flood US Border as Title 42 Ends
America might not have seen a massive red wave but it’s about to be drowned in a flood of a different kind. A veritable “avalanche” of illegal migrants is massed on the southern U.S. border, waiting for the impending end of Title 42 to enter America, the New York Post reports. The Washington Post warned in March that the number of illegal crossings could increase from the current, already huge 6,000 to 7,000 every day to 18,000 daily as the COVID-era border restriction ends.

Elizabeth May elected Green Party leader again, plans to co-lead with Jonathan Pedneault
OTTAWA – Elizabeth May has once again been named leader of the Green Party of Canada, after three years away from the job. She ran with Jonathan Pedneault, and the two plan to share the top spot, but it will take a change of the party’s constitution for co-leadership to be official.
“It’s a little bit of déjà vu, but it’s not the same thing,” May said in her victory speech. “I am not here alone, I’m here with my partner, the youngest candidate in the race.”
GUNTER: CSIS told government Freedom Convoy was no security threat
“CSIS told government Freedom Convoy didn’t pose national security threat day before Emergencies Act invoked.”
That was a headline in the National Post this week describing documents tabled at the public inquiry into the Trudeau government’s suspension of civil rights last winter to deal with the truckers’ protest in downtown Ottawa.
We’re learning the wrong lessons from Putin’s defeats
The West is swinging bizarrely between defeatism and triumphalism
With Kyiv crippling Russian supply lines and driving back their forces in the east and south, and with Moscow’s missile blitz against Ukrainian cities, both sides are bracing for a tough winter. Right now, the initiative is still with Ukraine, but as Russia redeploys its forces and continues mobilising, the outcome remains in the balance.
This is no time for equivocation. Yet that is what we are seeing, with reaction in the West switching bafflingly between defeatism and triumphalism.

Is Multiculturalism Destroying Western National Identities?
Twenty years ago, the United Nations published a document titled “Replacement Migration: Is it A Solution to Declining and Ageing Populations?“. It was not a right-wing conspiracy theory, but a sophisticated working plan for Western democracies dealing with demographic aging. It has since gone mainstream. Just read what Richard Thaler, a Nobel laureate in economics, said this week: “We need more immigrants to pay pensions”.
A recent article by Elsa Fornero, former Italian Minister of Labor, also explains the mentality of those who govern Europe and how they prepare the demise of its civilization…
‘The money is gone’: people who lost out in FTX’s collapse
… William, a construction site manager from California, was woken by a text from friends about potential trouble at FTX in the early hours of 8 November. At the time, the 40-year-old had about $85,000 of fiat currencies on the exchange, plus three bitcoins worth about $55,000 and about $10k in other altcoins – a significant chunk of his assets.
“I opened the FTX app, and tried to take it all out, but fiat withdrawals were limited to $25,000, so I did that and was told to wait 24 hours,” he says. “When I tried to withdraw the bitcoins I got an error message.”
