Industrial-Size Staffing Firms Reportedly Support Biden-Harris’ Mysterious Nationwide Migrant Network

Large staffing companies that thrived during the Afghanistan and Iraq wars under the Bush-Obama years retooled their business models as the US involvement and war funding in the Middle East wound down. Now, these staffing firms seem to be profiting off the Biden-Harris administration’s open-border migrant invasion by providing essential services, such as private security, transportation, and many other services, to ensure the fed’s migrant network nationwide operates smoothly.

These companies are likely awarded handsome federal contracts, paid for by the US taxpayer. 

Bussing and housing millions of illegal and legal aliens is big business for staffing companies and non-profits. Americans have to realize their tax dollars are paying for all of this while the migrants displace and replace blue-collar workers in small-town factories nationwide. The folks in Springfield, Ohio, and Charleroi, Pennsylvania, know firsthand just how devastating globalist open border policies can be for them.

Real America’s Voice host Ben Bergquam posted on X, “More breaking footage of the Democrats harboring illegals in Chicago. Now using unmarked brand new hotels like this Holiday Inn at [XXXXXXX] to disguise Kamala and Biden’s illegal invasion operations.” 

Bergquam’s video of the Holiday Inn filled-migrant hotel in the Chicago metro area is very intriguing. First, the security guards appear to be sourced from staffing firm GardaWorld.

The Digital Puppeteers: Big Tech’s Influence On Society

Tech companies have revolutionized the modern age, allowing for transcontinental communication, instant access to information, and unprecedented connectivity between people worldwide. But this revolution has come at a cost; these companies have undue influence over our lives, possessing the capability to shape public discourse, consumer behavior, and even political outcomes.

The scale of Big Tech’s market dominance is staggering. Google controls 81% of all general searches and Meta’s Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp collectively boast 3.27 billion daily active users. Amazon commands almost 50% of all U.S. e-commerce. These figures demonstrate how a handful of companies can wield unprecedented power over our digital lives.

This concentration of power allows Big Tech firms to design markets in ways that benefit themselves and stifle competition. It can result in higher prices for consumers and reduced innovation as smaller competitors are squeezed out.

The impact of this monopolistic control extends beyond economic concerns to the sanctity of our democratic discourse. As these platforms have become the de facto public squares of the digital age, their content moderation policies and algorithmic decision-making wield enormous influence over what information reaches the public.

Big Tech’s selective censorship has become increasingly apparent, with conservative voices often bearing the brunt of content moderation. In 2020, a New York Post exposé on Hunter Biden’s laptop was suppressed on both Twitter and Facebook. After the first Trump assassination attempt, Google intentionally omitted search results which referenced the attack, despite providing suggestions for historical assassination attempts on other presidents. These incidents highlight the growing concern over Big Tech’s power to shape public discourse through selective content moderation

At the core of this issue lies Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act of 1996, which shields interactive computer services from liability for content posted by users. While originally intended to promote free speech online, this provision has become a double-edged sword. It allows platforms to avoid responsibility for harmful or false content while simultaneously giving them broad discretion to censor or promote content as they see fit.

US and Its Corporate Interests Won’t Leave Iraq Anytime Soon – Analyst

Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani indicated in January that he was committed to speeding up negotiations with the US-led international coalition on the final withdrawal of its forces from the country. He confirmed Baghdad’s “steadfast and principled” position that the coalition had already fulfilled its mission.

Don’t expect the US to suddenly leave Iraq “while corporate interests steer American foreign policy,” Isa Blumi, an associate professor at the Department of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies at Stockholm University, told Sputnik.

“I don’t see this happening […] unless there is a serious revolution in Iraq itself or in the larger region that sees the US leave permanently from these strategic and very lucrative arenas for American corporations to make money,” Blumi said, commenting on the ambiguous announcement of a partial drawdown of US forces in Iraq.

The US footprint “remains omnipresent, hegemonic, willing to use enormous violence,” he noted.

The military presence “will be modified” due to the “vulnerability of explicit American presence” to aerial attacks, which might chip away at the dimming aura of US invincibility, the expert underscored.

Since the beginning of the escalation of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the bases of the US-led international coalition in Iraq, as well as US troops in Syria, have come under regular attacks, with armed Shiite groups claiming responsibility in Iraq.

Massive DATA LEAK at background check company exposes private information of over 100 million Americans

The private information of almost one-third of the population of the United States has been leaked following a security lapse within a major corporation responsible for conducting background checks.

The affected company, MC2 Data, provides background check services. The company collects, organizes and analyzes data from a vast range of public sources, such as criminal records, employment histories, family data and contact details. (Related: Massive DATA BREACH exposes personal data of 700 million users of Microsoft-owned LinkedIn.)

MC2 Data and similar companies use the gathered information to make complete profiles that are used by employers, landlords and other entities who depend on them for decision-making and risk management.

MC2 Data owns multiple background check websites, including PrivateRecords.net, PrivateReports, PeopleSearcher, ThePeopleSearchers and PeopleSearchUSA.

Cyber News reported that the total number of people affected by the data breach is 106,316,633. MC2 is being accused of leaving a database with 2.2 terabytes worth of information without a password and readily accessible on the open web, raising serious concerns regarding the ability of MC2 Data to protect the privacy and safety of people it conducts background searches on.

IBM opens its quantum-computing stack to third parties

As we described earlier this year, operating a quantum computer will require a significant investment in classical computing resources, given the amount of measurements and control operations that need to be executed and interpreted. That means that operating a quantum computer will also require a software stack to control and interpret the flow of information from the quantum side.

But software also gets involved well before anything gets executed. While it’s possible to execute algorithms on quantum hardware by defining the full set of commands sent to the hardware, most users are going to want to focus on algorithm development, rather than the details of controlling any single piece of quantum hardware. “If everyone’s got to get down and know what the noise is, [use] performance management tools, they’ve got to know how to compile a quantum circuit through hardware, you’ve got to become an expert in too much to be able to do the algorithm discovery,” said IBM’s Jay Gambetta. So, part of the software stack that companies are developing to control their quantum hardware includes software that converts abstract representations of quantum algorithms into the series of commands needed to execute them.

IBM’s version of this software is called Qiskit (although it was made open source and has since been adopted by other companies). Recently, IBM made a couple of announcements regarding Qiskit, both benchmarking it in comparison to other software stacks and opening it up to third-party modules. We’ll take a look at what software stacks do before getting into the details of what’s new.

A Confluence of Monopolies, Manipulations, and Moore’s Law

The current crisis is the story of: 

  1. Billionaires = unprecedented personal power

    There have always been very rich people who bend society to serve their personal interests. But today’s billionaires have so much more power at their fingertips. They can write a check to a PR firm with 100,000 employees around the globe, or buy a slate of politicians, or hire a private intelligence agency like BlackCube made up of former Mossad agents to blackmail a rival, manipulate a market, or rig an election. Bill Gates, the Wellcome Trust, and BlackRock are key instigators of the Covid crisis. Billionaires are playing a different game than the rest of us and the WEF is one of their coordinating councils (I’m sure there are many more that we cannot see).
  2. Monopolies = unprecedented corporate power

    The classic economic liberalism of Adam Smith does not exist anymore. In its place are oligopolies and monopolies. The US is controlled by ten cartels and collectively they are destroying our country and enslaving the population. The economics of monopoly capitalism are completely different than the economics of liberal capitalism. Under monopoly capitalism firms set prices, write the laws, and generally do not have to compete (instead they use bottlenecks and the coercive power of the state to extract economic rents from the population). 
  3. Psyops = unprecedented psychological insight deployed in service of unprecedented government/corporate power

    The CIA has spent the last 77 years studying human behavior and ways to manipulate and control the human mind. They learned from the best psychologists, researched how various chemicals impact the brain, and mastered the art of television and film for the purposes of persuasion. The Asch Conformity Experiment, Stanford Prison Experiment, and Milgram Experiment revealed that 65% to 75% of society are basically non-playing characters who will do whatever they are told. The CIA then conducted countless experiments to hone their craft and reshape society. The CIA weaponized this knowledge to serve the interests of their clients — first the US government and large multinational corporations and now they’ve gone rogue and they just serve their own interests.

The Great Job Replacement: How Corporations Are Replacing American Workers With “Temporary Protected Status” Migrants Across Ohio & Pennsylvania

Another burgeoning crisis involving the importation of Haitian migrants is bubbling over, this time not in Ohio – but Pennsylvania too.

Recently at one of his rallies, former President Donald Trump spoke of Charleroi, Pennsylvania, detailing that the 4,000 person town has experienced a 2,000% surge in the Haitian migrant population under Kamala Harris.

Charleroi councilman, Larry Celaschi explained the worsening situation.

Councilman Celaschi says that Charleroi is getting no money or funding from having such a large number of Haitian migrants dumped in their town.

Celaschi describes that Charleroi is already unable to make ends meet with their budget and is now somehow expected to find extra revenue to bear the strain of an influx of Haitians on their town’s infrastructure.

Celaschi also explains that there has been a huge spike in car crashes and that the town needs new traffic signage in English and Creole so migrants can understand what to do when operating a vehicle on the roadways.

Over the past five years, 1.4 million native-born U.S. workers have lost their job. In that same span of time, 3 million foreign-born workers gained employment.

The Odd Connections Between David Becker, Georgia Election Officials, Sunoco Oil And A GA Election Organization You Likely Have Never Heard Of

In telling the story – it’s hard to judge where to start, but let’s begin with David Becker. Mr. Becker founded an organization known as the Center for Election Innovation and Research, better known as CEIR.

Prior to forming the organization Becker was a Director at PEW Charitible Trust and founded the Electronic Registration Information Center (ERIC) with which Georgia contracts to “clean” our voter rolls.

A number of States have already exited their agreements with ERIC citing a variety of concerns including errors, lack of information regarding their operations and security measures.  In at least one case, an official from another State travelled to ERIC’ listed headquarters only to find no evidence of systems or staff at the address listed.

PEW Charitible Trusts, where Becker was a Director, gets its name from the PEW family who made their fortune largely through Sunoco Oil.

Georgia Secretary of State, Brad Raffensperger and Jamie Raskin, (Representative from Maryland and member of the infamous J6 Committee) were highlighted speakers at CEIR’s “secret” meeting in Washington DC last year.

David Becker also started EOLDN, Election Official Legal Defense Network claiming election officials around the country needed a method for protecting themselves legally.

Walgreens Agrees to Pay $107 Million to Settle Allegations of Falsely Billing Medicare, Medicaid

Walgreens Boots Alliance, Inc., one of the nation’s largest retail pharmacy chains, has agreed to pay $106.8 million to settle allegations of submitting false claims to federal health care programs, including Medicare and Medicaid, the Department of Justice (DOJ) said in a press release.

The allegations involve claims for prescriptions that were processed but never dispensed, spanning a period from 2009 to 2020. This settlement resolution falls under the False Claims Act, a tool for addressing fraud involving taxpayer-funded health care programs.

The DOJ alleged that Walgreens billed federal health care programs for prescriptions that beneficiaries never picked up, allowing the company to receive millions of dollars in payments for medications that were never provided.

Walgreens, which is based in Deerfield, Illinois, did not admit liability in agreeing to settle.

“Due to a software error, we inadvertently billed some government health care programs for a relatively small number of prescriptions our patients submitted but never picked up,” the company said in an emailed statement to The Epoch Times.

“We corrected the error, reported the issue to the government, and voluntarily refunded all overpayments. We appreciate the government acknowledged our compliance efforts as part of resolving this matter.”

How the Opiate Conspiracy Widened

Many businesses will gleefully sell you a harmful addiction.

The tobacco industry was supposedly subdued decades ago by a historic legal beat-down, yet somehow spends $22 million every day promoting its wares. That’s nearly a million dollars an hour. Websites for kids sport vaping ads. “Cigfluencers” work the podcasts. And movies are smoke-choked like never before.

There was a time when a cigarette company could pay a mere $43,000 for Superman to be thrown into a Marlboro truck by the evil General Zod in front of Marlboro-smoker Lois Lane. (She had never smoked in the comic books, by the way.)

These days, modern Hollywood supposedly disdains tobacco cash. Yet somehow the movies remain one long, glamorous advertisement for cigarettes. Of this year’s ten Oscar Best Picture nominees, nine featured seductive and edgy smoking. (Only “Barbie” did not.)

The marketeers assure us we’ll be inhaling happiness and hipness. Maybe so, but there are also those hot, lung-damaging fumes — a reality that eventually catches up and kills about half a million of us every year.

(Brief digression: COVID-19 had a U.S. death toll of about 1.2 million over three tough years. Many COVID-19 victims were also smokers, so it’s hard to compare the pandemic and smoking death tolls. That said, we can certainly compare the public health responses. When COVID-19 arrived, we shut down the entire planet, and the virus would go on to kill an average of 400,000 Americans a year for three years. Smoking has been here all along — glamorized, marketed to kids — cheerfully killing 500,000 Americans a year, every year, forever.)
