We know what’s coming and we are prepared.
I worked for a federal home health program. 45 branch offices around the country.
DC had the most inept staff, the most clients banned from the office for violence, the only office with security and metal detectors, the most clients tagged with no home visits, the highest number of complaints alleging racism(staff and clients), the longest intake process for simple things " da fuck is surname??,aint no one know what the fuck is on your white ass papers", the most fraud cases and the last place in America to adopt Internet based time keeping (5 years after the rest of the country) due to technical illiteracy. We also had to revise program materials that were typically written for an 8th grade reading level down to a third grade level and that really didn't help.
The program? allowing senior citizens and disabled people to hire their own home health caregivers at no cost to the client. We had so much staff turnover on that account that all communication was assigned to my 7 person work group in our corporate headquarters, because general customer service would leave in tears and the branch office was too stupid to keep up with basic compliance rules.
The World Microbiome Partnership (WMP) is an international forum founded in 2023 with funding from the EU Horizon 2020 to create a governance structure for microbiome manipulation across agriculture, medicine, and climate policy.
The WMP is aligned with the One Health and Planetary Health agendas (the same ones behind both the EAT-Lancet commissions "Planetary Health Diet" and the UN's Food Systems Summit that promises to eliminate animal agriculture).
WMP participants include the WHO, the CDC, NIH, and biotech firms. They promote the idea that microbial communities must be governed like other strategic assets.
The key thing to understand is that the technocrats are reframing the microbiome as critical infrastructure: more like an energy grid or communication network than a sacred, living ecosystem.
As biotech companies deploy platforms to build GMO microbes to do everything from "manufacturing", to biomarkers, to surveillance — the WMP seeks control of these novel systems, ...
A court in Vienna has caused a storm after confirming that a financial ruling based on Islamic law, or Sharia, is legally valid in Austria.
Critics say the judgment opens the door to “parallel justice” and undermines the country’s legal system.
The case began when two Muslim men agreed that any disputes between them would be settled by an Islamic arbitration panel using Sharia rules.
When a disagreement arose, the tribunal ordered one of them to pay €320,000. He refused, arguing that Sharia is open to different interpretations and goes against Austria’s core values.
But the Vienna Regional Court dismissed his appeal. Judges said Austrian law allows people to choose arbitration systems for financial and property disputes, as long as the result does not break Austria’s “fundamental legal values.”
The court added that it was not its role to examine whether Sharia itself was fair, but only whether the outcome contradicted Austrian law.
The ruling has sparked fierce criticism. Manfred ...
