Dilbert creator Scott Adams is not going away quietly after the mad rush to cancel him for suggesting last week that white people may want to get away from black people, citing a Rasmussen poll showing that 47 percent of black respondents would not agree that it’s okay to be white — an inane question that captures the glory of critical race theory. | Adams doubled down on Saturday despite newspapers across the country dropping the Dilbert comic strip over his observation. Referencing the “Pence Rule,” which is based on former Vice President Mike Pence famously saying he doesn’t allow himself to be alone with a woman who isn’t his wife, Adams explained on his podcast “you should absolutely be racist whenever it’s to your advantage, and that’s for men, for women, for black or white, Asian or Hispanic.”

The United States plans to organize a provocation in Ukraine with the use of toxic agents, while blaming Russia, Commander of Russia's Nuclear, Biological and Chemical Protection Troops Lt. Gen. Igor Kirillov said at a briefing on Tuesday. | According to Kirillov, on February 22, an influential US non-governmental organization held a conference on the events in Ukraine, and former US Ambassador to Russia John Sullivan made a statement, which, in particular, said that Russian troops planned to use chemical weapons in the area of the special military operation. He said Washington hopes that during hostilities it will not be possible to properly investigate the planned US chemical provocation in Ukraine, but added that in case the provocation does take place, the Russian Defense Ministry will identify and punish the true culprits. Lt. Gen. Kirillov said the United States is likely to try to use the BZ military incapacitating agent (3-Quinuclidinyl benzilate) in Ukraine.

■ Alexei Rybin (Алексей Рыбин) | Russian Defense Ministry: U.S. is preparing a provocation in Ukraine using psychotropic chemicals | The United States intends to carry out a provocation in Ukraine using toxic psychotropic chemicals, accusing Russia in the process. Igor Kirillov, head of the Russian CBRN troops, said. ● According to him, February 22, an influential U.S. non-governmental organization held a conference on the events in Ukraine. At the event, former U.S. Ambassador to Russia John Sullivan said that Russian troops were allegedly planning to use chemical weapons in the air defense zone. ● "We regard this information as the intention of the United States themselves and their accomplices to conduct a provocation in Ukraine using toxic chemicals," Kirillov stressed. ● According to the Ministry of Defense, preparations for the provocation are already underway. Thus, at the beginning of the year, a large batch of personal protective equipment with antidotes from substances like sarin and soman, anticonvulsants, preparations for detoxification of mustard gas, lewisite and hydrocyanic acid derivatives of chloroacetophenone inhibitors was supplied to Ukraine. ● In addition, the Defense Ministry received information that on February 10, a train with a cargo of chemicals accompanied by foreigners arrived in Kramatorsk. According to the department, the cargo included 16 crates, eight of which had a chemical hazard sign and the inscription "Bi-Zet" (a combat psychotropic poisoning substance that causes acute psychosis, loss of orientation, hallucinations, memory impairment). ● "We warn that in case of provocations with the use of toxic chemicals, the true perpetrators will be identified and punished," Igor Kirillov stressed. ● Earlier, there were already reports about the use of chemical weapons by the AFU on the front lines. Now they are being checked by the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation. ● In its turn, the Russian Defence Ministry also reported about Kiev's preparation of a provocation with radioactive substances for subsequent accusations against Russia.

Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev reiterated Monday his country's threat of nuclear war if the West's supply of arms to Ukraine continues. | The warning in an op-ed piece in the state-run newspaper Izvestiya was the second time in three weeks the key aide to President Vladimir Putin has invoked the nuclear option in an effort to deter the U.S.-led NATO alliance from arming Ukraine. Medvedev, who was president from 2008 to 2012 and currently serves as the deputy chairman of the powerful Security Council of Russia, dangled the prospect of talks while demanding shipments of arms to Ukraine be halted immediately. Echoing comments by Putin yesterday Medvedev wrote that 💬 any existential threat to Russia would not be decided on the front in Ukraine, but would spiral into an existential threat to human civilization, repeating the refrain "we don't need a world without Russia."

Dmitry Medvedev (Дмитрий Медведев) | The Point of No Return | (Extract) The point of no return can be considered to be two dates, actually. The first one was in the autumn of 2008 when the Western world supported the aggression of Georgia against the Ossetian people and praised a jerk, a drug addict and adventurer, who later was rejected not only by his own country but also by another one, which he cowardly ran away from. The aggressor was then rebuffed swiftly and firmly. ● The second turning point was the spring of 2014, when the people of Crimea expressed their will in a legal referendum, returning to their historic homeland forever. This provoked a frenzied, impotent hysteria in the Western world that lasts to this day. Their convulsions are fueled by caveman Russophobia and a desire to create a new Frankenstein in the form of Ukraine - a special "anti-Russia" that our president wrote about. What else is there to say? Only one thing: the wise forerunners of the present brainless western politicians spoke so: Deus quos vult perdere dementat prius - whom God wants to punish, He deprives of his mind first. It is this insane hysteria, the obsessive desire to tear our country apart, that eventually led to a special military operation.(MORE)(Translation: yandex.ru & DeepL.com)

Victoria Nuland says the US supports attacks on the peninsula | Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Friday that Ukraine is preparing to launch attacks to recapture Crimea by forming new military units and sending troops to train in other countries. 💬 “There are military steps, and we are preparing for them. We are ready mentally. We are preparing technically: with weapons, re-inforcements, the formation of brigades, in particular the assault brigades, of different categories and nature,” Zelensky said at a press conference, according to the Ukrainian news agency Ukrinform. According to Ukrinform, Zelensky said Ukrainian troops were being sent to train in other countries to learn how to use new weapons. “We have to be ready. Then, there will be corresponding fair de-occupation steps and, God willing, they will be successful,” he added. ● Zelensky and other top Ukrainian officials have maintained that kicking Russia out of Crimea is one of their war goals, but Russia controls a good portion of territory to the north of Crimea in the Kherson Oblast. The Pentagon has also assessed it’s unlikely Ukraine can take the peninsula, which Russia has controlled since 2014.

Three people have been killed by firing squad executions in the United States in the last 50 years, the last occurring in 2010 in Utah by a prisoner who picked that method. | Idaho state Representative Bruce Skaug, a Republican has introduced a bill to the state legislature that would once again legalize death by firing squad in the state. If the law passes, it could be used for Bryan Kohberger, the 28-year-old accused of murdering four University of Idaho students on November 13. Prosecutors say he was linked to the crime by DNA evidence and cell phone location data. ●  Prosecutors have not announced if they will seek the death penalty in the case. Kohberger is expected to enter a plea in June and prosecutors have until July to announce if they will seek the death penalty. Currently, lethal injection is the only legal method of execution in the state of Idaho. If Skaug’s bill passes it would allow the state to use a firing squad if the chemicals needed for the execution cannot be obtained by the state five days after the death warrant is signed.

But the deeply troubling findings don’t end there, because we decided to conduct further analysis of the VAERS data on the Covid-19 vaccines, and we’ve discovered that the majority of the deadliest batches were clearly sent to Republican controlled red states across the USA.

Scientists in Germany have found that mRNA vaccination, not COVID-19 infection itself, caused brain and heart damage in an older adult with underlying conditions. | This study was published in October 2022 in the journal Vaccines: “A Case Report: Multifocal Necrotizing Encephalitis and Myocarditis after BNT162b2 mRNA Vaccination against COVID-19.” It examined the situation of a 76-year-old German man with Parkinson’s disease. ● The patient died three weeks after receiving his third COVID-19 injection. The first vaccine he received in May of 2021 was the Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine. That was followed by two more injections in July and then December of the same year. His two subsequent vaccines were both made by Pfizer. ● After the second vaccine, the patient’s family noticed marked changes in his behavior. He started experiencing more anxiety, became more lethargic, and did not want to be touched. He became withdrawn, even from close family members, and the symptoms of his pre-existing Parkinson’s disease worsened considerably. ● Given the ambiguous clinical symptoms prior to his death, his family requested an autopsy. The unusual and fascinating results of the autopsy led to a published case report about what is now being claimed as a vaccine-induced death.

US President Barack Obama revealed the United States' involvement in the Ukrainian crisis from its outset and admitted that the United States “had brokered a deal to transition power in Ukraine.” | US President Barack Obama’s recent interview with CNN’s Fareed Zakiria reveals the United States' involvement in the Ukrainian crisis from its outset and that the country worked directly with Ukrainian right-wing fascist groups, experts told Sputnik. On Sunday, in his interview with CNN, Obama admitted that the United States 💬 “had brokered a deal to transition power in Ukraine.” “Obama’s statement is reiterating something that the world public opinion already knew — the US was involved in the coup of [ex-Ukrainian President] Viktor Yanukovych from the start. History shows us that the US has overthrown numerous governments in Latin America, Asia and Africa and replaced them with leaders that ruled with a fascist ideology that proved useful for Washington’s geopolitical interests,” independent researcher and writer Timothy Alexander Guzman told Sputnik. Yanukovych’s decision to not sign an association agreement with the European Union in late 2013 triggered a mass wave of protests across Ukraine, culminating in the February 2014 coup. Following the transition of power, Kiev forces launched military operation against those who refused to recognize the legitimacy of the new government.

A blueprint in good faith | On the one-year anniversary of the Russia-Ukraine military conflict, China restated its calls for political settlement of the Ukraine crisis with more specific plans that accommodate the concerns of both Russia and Ukraine, in a neutral and consistent manner. In a 12-point position paper dubbed "China's Position on the Political Settlement of the Ukraine Crisis," issued on Friday morning, the Chinese Foreign Ministry called for ceasing hostilities and resuming peace talks, stopping unilateral sanctions and abandoning the Cold War mentality. It also called for respecting the sovereignty of all countries and expressed opposition to the use of nuclear weapons. Chinese experts said the document should be viewed as a blueprint that has made China's principles clear for resolving the crisis and pointed out the basic path to achieve it constructively.

■ Time will prove the enormous value of China’s position paper: Global Times editorial

Comment by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, M.V.Zakharova, in connection with the publication of the Chinese Foreign Ministry's "China's position on the political settlement of the Ukrainian crisis" | On February 24, a document entitled "China's position on the political settlement of the Ukrainian crisis" was published on the official website of the Chinese Foreign Ministry. ● We highly appreciate the sincere desire of Chinese friends to contribute to the settlement of the conflict in Ukraine by peaceful means. ● We share Beijing's considerations. We are committed to the principles of compliance with the UN Charter, the norms of international law, including humanitarian law, the indivisibility of security, according to which the security of one country should not be strengthened at the expense of the security of another, which applies to the security of individual groups of countries. Like our Chinese colleagues, we consider any restrictive measures unauthorized by the UN Security Council to be illegitimate. It is a crude instrument of unfair competition and economic warfare. ● It was these considerations that dictated our proposals, put forward at the end of 2021, to conclude an Agreement between the Russian Federation and the United States of America on security Guarantees, as well as an Agreement on measures to ensure the Security of the Russian Federation and the Member States of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. We regret that our constructive proposals were rejected by Western countries. ● As for the Ukrainian crisis, Russia is open to achieving its goals through political and diplomatic means. This implies the cessation of supplies of Western weapons and mercenaries to Ukraine, the end of hostilities, the return of Ukraine to a neutral non-aligned status, recognition of the new territorial realities that have developed as a result of the realization of the right of peoples to self-determination, demilitarization and denazification of Ukraine, as well as the elimination of all threats emanating from its territory. ● Citizens of Ukraine, including the Russian-speaking population and representatives of national minorities, should be guaranteed all inalienable rights, including the right to speak and study in their native language. All illegal restrictive measures should be abolished and politicized lawsuits in international courts should be withdrawn. ● We are confident that moving along this path will lead to a comprehensive, just and sustainable peace. ● The main obstacle to a peaceful settlement today is the "impossibility" of negotiations with Russian President Vladimir Putin, as well as the initiatives of the Ukrainian leader, which testify to the complete isolation of official Kiev from modern realities, including the demand for the withdrawal of Russian troops from our new territories – Donbass, Crimea, which was legislated by the Decree of V. Zelensky on September 30, 2022., Zaporozhye and Kherson region. At the same time, we would also like to remind you that it was Ukraine that in April 2022 stopped the peace talks initiated by it with Russia. (Trans. yandex.ru)
