Sun- Social media, smartphone warriors put police under full-time surveillance

“Our members know they are watched continuously, they know everything they do and say is captured on video, and they know that they are the only professional in an interaction with the public,” said Toronto Police Association president Jon Reid. “Our members are also pushed to the brink on many shifts. Between a lack of proper staffing and public support, and when some members of the public feel it is increasingly acceptable to interfere in police operations and treat our members with disrespect, it is not surprising to see how some of these interactions are unfolding.”

When The FBI Does It, That Means That It’s Not Illegal

Subornation of perjury;

The audio file is a recording of a June 6 telephonic interview that Jessica did with Nick Tartaglione, Jeffrey Epstein’s former cellmate in the Brooklyn Metropolitan Detention Center. Tartaglione was recounting some of his conversations with Epstein.

As Tartaglione tells it, Epstein returned to their shared cell after a meeting with the federal prosecutors. He told his cellmate that the prosecutors were fishing for a plea deal with him if he would provide damaging information about Trump that would support his impeachment. It didn’t matter whether it was true or not.

Tartaglione asked whether Epstein knew Trump. Epstein acknowledged that although he did know Trump, they didn’t like each other. When Tartaglione asked why, Epstein described how Trump had kicked him out of Mar-a-Lago because he, Epstein, was there with an under-aged girl. Here is Tartaglione’s description of the conversation…

He [Epstein] said, ‘I don’t know anything. . . . But the government told me I don’t have to prove what I say about Trump as long as Trump’s people can’t disprove it.’ I [Tartaglione] said ‘Yes, he’s the President of the United States. His people are the FBI.’ He [Epstein] said, ‘That’s what I said, and they said, no, the FBI’s our people, not his people.’

Blacklock’s- Quadrupled Budget For Clark

A new luxury Manhattan penthouse for New York Consul Tom Clark cost taxpayers four times the expense of renovating the apartment used by his predecessors, records show.

“In May 2021 a renovation project estimated at $1.8 million was approved but delayed due to the Covid-19 pandemic,” wrote McCardell. Renovation costs were subsequently revised to $2.6 million without explanation. The department instead decided to purchase a new penthouse for $8,840,000.

Vitally critical minerals

Hey, wasn’t the now defunct Vital Metals the place Prime Minister Trudeau made a $5 million funding announcement at in January 2023? And by January, 2024, it was liquidating its assets? Well, now the feds are investing in critical minerals, again.

This time, the Saskatchewan Research Council is getting the money.

That Sinking Feeling

Despite the mainstream media’s attempts at getting people to believe that the economy is prosperous, more and more often a bit of news leaks out which indicates that all is not as it seems. The marginal consumer is clearly tapped out. It’s not the high end eateries that are feeling the pinch, but rather the mass market chains with razor thin margins, soaring costs and a consumer base that can’t afford to pay.

Subway has called a hasty meeting with franchisees of its 19,000 North American sandwich shops as they grapple with faltering sales and profits, The Post has learned.

A Subway franchisee with nearly 20 stores told The Post his same-store sales are down 5% to 10% in recent weeks compared to the prior year.

“Our gross sales are not even at 2012 levels, and profit then was five times what it is today.”

The franchisee added that his stores barely break even with the discounts.
