Declarations

 Hereby Informed,


  It's Official:  RFK Jr: HHS Became a ‘Collaborator in Child Trafficking’ Under Biden
Health and Human Services Secretary Robert Kennedy Jr. said Wednesday that HHS is no longer facilitating child trafficking in the United States and is instead “very aggressively” searching for the hundreds of thousands of migrant children lost by the Biden administration.
  “We have ended HHS’s role as the principal vector in this country for child trafficking,” Kennedy said during a White House Cabinet meeting with President Trump and other top administration officials to mark the first 100 days of the president’s second term.
  “During the Biden administration, HHS became a collaborator in child trafficking for sex and for slavery, and we have ended that”RFK Jr. declared.

  RFK Jr. was asked about chemtrails recently on The Dr. Phil Podcast and his response is noteworthy.
He confirmed they are real and then he said he believes DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) is doing the spraying.
He also said he is bringing on someone whose entire job will be to investigate this and shut it down...
..There are no longer any massive spraying jets hooked up to planes. No, they knew that couldn’t be kept quiet. Not sustainable.
  No, it’s much simpler now. Now they’ve found a way to just put the chemicals directly into the fuel and as the fuel burns and the exhaust comes out, the chemicals come out with it. Simple!
  And almost no one needs to be “in on it.” In fact, most people flying the planes or working on the planes probably do not know any different.

  Caitlin Johnstone,  Israel's Backers Keep Whining That They're Losing Control Of The Narrative
  Amnesty International is now calling Israel’s mass atrocity in Gaza “a live-streamed genocide” due to the way this nightmare is unfolding right in front of us on the screens of our devices around the world, and public support for Israel is plummeting in the United States...
..During a speech at a summit hosted by the Jewish News Syndicate earlier this week, former US senator Norm Coleman said that Jews are “the masters of the universe” and should use their power in Silicon Valley to control online information in order to win a “digital war”.
  Coleman, who is Jewish, made the following remarks on Monday:
  “A majority of Gen Z have an unfavorable impression of Israel. And, my friends, I think the reason for that is that we’re losing the digital war. They’re getting their information from TikTok… and we’re losing that war.
  “And when you think about it, the masters of the universe are Jews! We’ve got Altman at OpenAI, we’ve got [Facebook founder Mark] Zuckerberg, we’ve got [Google founder] Sergey Brin, we’ve got a group across the board. Jan Koum, y’know, founded WhatsApp. It’s us.
  “And we have to figure out a way to win the digital battle. We’ve got to get our digital sneakers on, so that the truth can prevail over the lies. And when we do that, the future of Israel will be stronger because a majority of all Americans will support Israel. We’ll make that happen, we have to make it happen.”

  "Hamas-Linked Terrorists" says Israel:  Flotilla carrying pro-Gaza activists struck by drone near Malta, group says
“The Freedom Flotilla Coalition had been organizing a nonviolent action under a media blackout to avoid any potential sabotage,” the group said in an official statement on its website. “Volunteers from over 21 countries travelled to Malta to board the mission to Gaza, including prominent figures.”
  The statement said the vessel was struck twice by armed drones 17 nautical miles (31.5 kilometers) east of Malta, “causing a fire and a substantial breach in the hull,” and that, as of the last communication with the boat, the drones were still circling the ship.

Freedom Flotilla Coalition demands Israel answer to violations of international law, including blockade and ‘bombing of our civilian vessel’.
  Jenes, currently in Malta, said that the group was not aware of the situation on board the ship as communication with the crew had been lost.
“They were hiding in the night in the rooms of the ship because they were afraid of the drones …  We lost contact with them,” she said.
The FFC, formed by peace activists from several countries last year, uses a converted trawler to try to defy Israel’s blockade on Gaza.
  Israel halted humanitarian aid two months ago, shortly before it broke a ceasefire and restarted its war against Hamas, which has devastated the Palestinian enclave and killed more than 50,000 people.

  "Mission accomplished":  Trump has forced Ukraine to sell itself for aid – Medvedev
Trump has advertised the agreement as a way to get back the roughly $350 billion he claims Washington has spent on support for Kiev in the conflict with Russia.
  The agreement does not mention security guarantees, which Ukraine previously insisted on. Instead, it focuses on future US aid, rather than paying back assistance provided to Ukraine in the past.
  “Trump has finally broken the Kiev regime into paying for American aid with minerals,” Medvedev, who currently serves as the deputy chairman of Russia’s Security Council, said in a Telegram post on Thursday. “Now military supplies will have to be paid for with the national wealth of a disappearing country.”

Dmitry Trenin: Here’s why Trump’s foreign policy is calculated, not chaotic  America’s new realism means peace with Russia and focus on China      
   In geopolitics, Trump embraces a realist doctrine grounded in great-power competition. He has defined his global priorities: secure North America as a geopolitical fortress from Greenland to Panama; redirect US and allied power toward containing China; make peace with Russia; and consolidate influence in the Middle East by supporting Israel, partnering with Gulf monarchies, and confronting Iran...                    ..Trump does not see Russia as a primary adversary. He views Moscow as a geopolitical rival, but not a military or ideological threat. Rather than pushing to sever Russia from China, he aims to re-engage Russia economically – in areas like energy, the Arctic, and rare earths – with the expectation that greater Western economic engagement will reduce Moscow’s dependence on Beijing.
  In fact, outreach to the Kremlin has become the centerpiece of Trump’s foreign policy in his second term. His goal is not to divide Moscow and Beijing outright, but to lay the groundwork for a new global balance of power in which Russia has options beyond the Chinese orbit...
..Trump is not tearing down the American system but striving to restore it. His counterrevolution is aimed at reversing liberal-globalist distortions, reinforcing sovereignty, and returning realism to international affairs.   https://swentr.site/news/616578-trumps-foreign-policy-calculated/

  The first 100 days of US President Donald Trump's second term in office have marked a profound shift toward searching areas of cooperation with Russia instead of confrontation, Rhode Island University Professor of Political Science Nicolai Petro told Sputnik.
  "President Trump has a very different view of Russia from his predecessors. Rather than assuming that Russia's interests must clash with American interests, he assumes that the two can find areas of cooperation, and that such cooperation has the potential to expand," Petro said.   https://sputnikglobe.com/20250429/trump-seeks-cooperation-with-russia-instead-of-confrontation---expert-1121952423.html

  Pepe Escobar, Welcome to “Ruler of the World” does Wonderland
Two overarching taboos reign on the – now shattered – collective West:
  Can’t define the Ukraine regime as Nazi.
Can’t condemn the psychopathological Israeli genocide in Gaza...
..So let’s go to Kashmir – to the sound of Jimmy Page’s hypnotic riff. Both India and Pakistan are escalating the war of decibels. Turkey is offering weapons – to Pakistan. Iran offered a mediator role: no takers...
..After the Kashmir bus terror attack, Hindutva fanatics went on a cyber-attack spree.
The crude tactics spell out classic Divide and Rule. Double whammy: revamped weaponization of India, and destabilization of a key Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) China front: the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). A thing of beauty: splitting BRICS from the inside.
  None of that, of course, legitimizes the ghastly Pakistani military, which have thrown in jail, on spurious charges, the man who was trying to bring Pakistan to respectability: Imran Khan.
  It’s up, once again, to the adults in the room, any room – Russia – to de-escalate. This could be ideally performed inside the SCO – where both India and Pakistan are members, side by side with Iran. Moscow chose to take the initiative, by itself.
  Deputy Foreign Minister Andrey Rudenko met with both India’s Ambassador to Russia, Vinay Kumar, and Pakistan’s Ambassador to Russia, Muhammad Khalid Jamali.
  Russian terminology is essential: not only there was a call for both parties to “engage in constructive dialogue”. Moscow stressed, “we are ready to counter the global terrorist threat together.” The operative word is “global”. Delhi and Islamabad don’t seem to be getting the message – yet...
..Lavrov cut to the chase on the financial and geoeconomic front. He stressed that BRICS are working hard on the 2024 Kazan summit-approved  “Trans-Border Payment Initiative”; a “payment and clearing infrastructure”“a re-insurance company”; and a new investment platform.
  He had to once again explain to Western media – from the US to Brazil – that “it would be premature to discuss a transition to a single currency for BRICS".

  Michael Hudson and Yanis Varoufakis with Ann Pettifor on Economic and Political Paradigm Changes
Yanis Varoufakis: "I think Michael Hudson is very poignantly bringing into the conversation about the global order of things is what I call cloud capital. So you can have an industrial robot, which is very technologically advanced, uses information technology and algorithms and so on to assemble Teslas, right? You can have OpenAI, which produces a standard service in a standard capitalist model.
  But what lives in here? What lives in here? In Google? In Facebook? In Meta? In X? In all these platforms, this is not just information technology. We get it wrong. It’s a new form of capital.
  Because every form of capital we’ve had up until now, since we created the first tool to the old singing, old dancing industrial robots that assemble Teslas, they’ve been produced means of production. That’s what capital was. With this, we had a mutation of capital.
  For the first time, we have automated systems that are not produced means of production, but are purely produced means of behavioral modification. So unlike the machines that Henry Ford employed to produce other machines, Model Ts, and create a monopoly capitalist system whereby he’ll use the monopoly profits in order to buy newspapers to influence people and governments and to rip up all the streetcars, trams, in order to replace them with his own cars. Unlike that, you know, Jeff Bezos doesn’t sell anything.
  I mean, he doesn’t sell anything he makes. His capital, his cloud capital has created a digital fiefdom in which he’s encased producers and consumers charging the equivalent of ground rent, of the feudal ground rent
, which are called cloud rent. And today, most of the value in the New York Stock Exchange and NASDAQ, it comes from cloud rent.
  It doesn’t come from capitalist profit. It’s exactly what Michael was saying. So when you saw this cabal of Bezos and Peter Thiel and Elon Musk and Tim from Apple and all these nice boys around Trump during his inauguration, I would call it the coronation this time around.
  And what you saw was these cloudalists, the owners of cloud capital, who some of them are losing a lot from the tariffs, like Elon Musk loses a lot from the tariffs. They don’t like the tariffs, but what they see in Trump is the gateway towards the complete political domination of this new form of capital, cloud capital.

  Martin Armstrong,  Trump’s EO to Support Trade Apprenticeships
  A Deloitte/Manufacturing Institute report warned of 1.9 million unfilled manufacturing jobs by 2033, as 3.8 million role will need to be filled. Manufacturing employment plummeted to its lowest level during the pandemic with nearly half (46.3%) of the sector out of work. Pandemic aside, manufacturers are struggling to find skilled laborers, with the same Deloitte poll noting that 65% of manufacturers found attracting and retaining talent was their primary business challenge. It was also revealed that 47% of companies would begin to offer work-study or apprenticeship programs.

  Trees 'Sync Up' During a Solar Eclipse in a Forest-Wide Phenomenon
  The researchers were monitoring the bioelectrical impulses of spruce trees, when a solar eclipse passed over. They left their sensors running to record the trees' response to the eclipse – and what they observed was astonishing.
  The spruce trees not only responded to the solar eclipse – they actively anticipated it, by synchronising their bioelectrical signals hours in advance.
  This forest-wide phenomenon, detailed today in the journal Royal Society Open Science, reveals a new layer of complexity in plant behaviour. It adds to emerging evidence that plants actively participate in their ecosystems.

Here Comes The Sun

Illuminated,


  Simplicius,  Russian Vise Tightens as West Dawdles and Dallies with "Ceasefire" Sham
To encapsulate: Russia is advancing in their war of attrition, growing stronger, as Ukraine goes weaker, and insists upon demilitarization and de-Nazification of Ukraine, as well as recognition of Crimea and 4 Novorossiyan oblasts as part of Russia.
  Ukraine is not yet at the point of capitulation, and concedes nothing, not even Crimea.
  The US has made a "final offer" to cease-fire now, and then negotiate, which would allow re-arming of Ukraine and training of new Ukrainian forces, which Russia will not allow. Russia will press the advantage until a final-status deal is on the table. A final-status deal will include a new European security framework to meet Russia's needs, not merely the desires of NATO. Sergey Lavrov keeps saying the same thing and "you're not listening".
  Russian preparations are being made, apparently with American understanding, to impose a government upon whatever the Ukrainian rump-state will be during reconstruction. Personnel considerations are underway. Trump says Russia's big concession is "to not take the whole country".
  Putin has announced 3 day ceasefire for May 9, Victory Day [Russia lost 26 million citizens to win WW-2.] and Zelensky has immediately rejected it, calling for 30 day ceasefire now, for Ukraine to re-trench and re-supply. That makes Ukraine/Zelensky look not-desirous-of-peace. Point: Russia.  
  Not mentioned here is that The "minerals deal" between the US and Ukraine has not yet been agreed-to or signed and is almost certainly precluded by the 100 year partnership treaty between the UK and Ukraine, signed January 16. The pretend negotiations continue. This ultimate failure may give Trump an excuse to drop Ukraine, or if Ukraine does sign something, it removes banking-collateral from the Bank of England, which could precipitate a crisis.
  There is a cool video of a nuclear-powered US aircraft carried doing high-powered "drifting" evasive maneuvers at sea (without any airplanes on deck).
  The must see video is of North Korean elite forces in live-fire training, then embracing and and holding up a Russian flag and a Company flag after retaking a Russian town in Kursk.

  Ukraine won’t win – Vance  
  “Sometimes you’re incredibly frustrated with Ukrainians. Sometimes you’re incredibly frustrated with the Russians,” Vance said. “And sometimes you just want to throw your hands up, but that’s what President Trump doesn’t let us do.”
  Vance’s remarks came as Russian President Vladimir Putin announced that Russian troops would observe a three-day ceasefire starting on May 8 to commemorate the Soviet Union’s victory over Germany in World War II. Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky responded by accusing Moscow of “manipulation” and called for an immediate 30-day ceasefire.
  According to Russia, Ukraine violated both the 30-day ‘energy truce’ brokered by the US last month and the 30-hour Easter truce, despite having promised to respect both arrangements. Putin has argued that in order for a comprehensive ceasefire to succeed, Ukraine must halt its mobilization campaign and the West must stop delivering weapons to Kiev.

  The explanation of the Spanish and Portuguese grid failure Monday, describing atmospheric conditions as the cause, struck me immediately as incompatible with what appeared to be a sudden huge induction of current in high voltage transmission-lines, implying action in the global electrical circuit, but there was not a coronal mass ejection or unusually high plasma stream at the time, which would readily explain it. 
  My NASA friend, Mel says NASA has been warning (not the public) about these "wormhole" conductive anomalies suddenly arising, to exactly this effect. There will be more of this. Will it be openly disclosed?
  Red caught Ben Davidson's live broadcast Monday evening, which I summarize here:
Official explanation is "only half a lie".
  Ben is showboating, taking his time to get to the point, sigh...
He gets more coherent at 7:00 minutes. 7-10 minutes gives the explanation.
"This was a weak spot in Earth's magnetic field, which allowed a solar wind plasma penetration" that shot down to the high pressure area over Europe, making a "flash" Ben can see , but we don't have that screen.

  Will they be able to mention the global electric circuit?  Power is back on in Spain and Portugal, but questions remain about Monday’s blackout.
Spain’s electrical grid was running as normal until 12:33 p.m. (6:33 a.m. ET) when, suddenly, it suffered a disturbance.
  Eduardo Prieto, the director of services for the grid operator Red Eléctrica, said the grid recovered after that first shock. But a second disconnection, one and a half seconds later, caused “a degradation of operating variables” of the system, leading to a “massive generation disconnection” and “disconnection of the connection lines with France.”
  In the space of a few seconds, 15 gigawatts of energy suddenly dropped from Spain’s supply, Spanish government sources told CNN – equivalent to 60% of the electricity being consumed at the time – and the entire Spanish grid collapsed as a result.

   What caused the blackout in Spain and Portugal and did renewable energy play a part?
Some initial reports suggested a “rare atmospheric phenomenon” may have been to blame, citing a statement attributed to the Portuguese grid operator REN... However, the weather in Spain was normal on Monday. On Tuesday REN denied it had been responsible for the statement, but did not give further details... 
..“The nature and scale of the outage makes it unlikely that the volume of renewables was the cause, with the Spanish network more often than not subject to very high volumes of such production.”
  The Spanish grid operator said on Tuesday that there had been two events akin to loss of power generation followed by a massive loss of renewable power, which had destabilised the grid. They said it was “very possible” the first of these events was a sudden loss of solar power.   https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/apr/29/what-caused-the-blackout-in-spain-and-portugal-and-did-renewable-energy-play-a-part

  Today there is still no mention of the anomalous opening of a current flux in the solar-wind current flow from the sun over Spain & Portugal.
What we know so far about the massive blackout that hit Spain and Portugal
  About three hours before the outage, power quality sensors in homes in the Madrid area showed warning signs of an unstable grid – there were small fluctuations in voltage around 9:30am local time, Whisker Labs CEO Bob Marshall said Tuesday. The Maryland-based software developer has a couple of dozen sensors in homes in and around Madrid, testing the technology for use in Europe for home fire prevention and grid monitoring.
  Instead of normal, steady voltage, Marshall said the data shows there were oscillations whose frequency and magnitude increased over the next three hours until the grid failed. He does not know what caused the instability.
  Around noon, there was a big jump in the magnitude of the fluctuations, with the voltage measured going up and down by about 15 volts every 1.5 seconds, Marshall said.
  “The way I would interpret our data," Marshall said about Monday's events, "is that the grid is struggling. Something’s wrong. And it’s showing increasing signs of instability".

  The Israeli minister also encountered criticism from supporters of Israeli hostages' families upon arriving at a Florida airport, according to widely-shared social media videos.
  While Ben-Gvir mentioned meeting US Congress members in his posts, he, however, didn't say that he met any official from the US administration.
He also claimed on Wednesday that US Republicans back his call for bombing food and aid stores in the war-ravaged Gaza Strip.
  A day later on Thursday, the US State Department dismissed Ben-Gvir's claim, saying his remarks are a “complete contradiction” to US policy.

  Scientists are rightfully afraid to contradict dominant CO2-Only narratives.  Physicist Anastassia Makarieva:   What's Happening with Global Precipitation?
Land vs. Ocean, Observations vs. Models and the Official Narrative
  The data focuses on global precipitation—how it has changed over the past forty years, especially during the anomalously warm year of 2023. The narrative aspect is about how these changes align with expectations from global climate models, and how reporting differs when models agree or disagree with observed data...
..Stating clearly that the observed trends in global precipitation do not conform to climate models is important. As we have seen in “We are losing soil moisture, why?”, a decline in precipitation over land is consistent with independent assessments of soil moisture stores—and would be incompatible with the rising precipitation projected by the models. Also, a relative reduction in precipitation by 1% due to reduced transpiration (as compared to the pure CO2-driven warming) can result in significant additional global warming, as we have discussed in “Global cooling from plant transpiraton”.   https://bioticregulation.substack.com/p/whats-happening-with-global-precipitation
