1…………> Human Right Council: US Out

The United States has withdrawn from the United Nations Human Rights Council accusing it of a “chronic bias against Israel” according to UN ambassador Nicky Haley, while human rights groups say Trump administration is not prioritizing human rights.

“For too long the Human Rights Council has been a protector of human rights abusers and a cesspool of political bias,” she said.
“Regrettably, it is now clear that our call for reform was not needed. Human rights abuses continue to serve on and be elected to the council”.

“The world’s most inhumane regimes continue to escape scrutiny and the council continues politicising and scape-goating of countries with positive human rights records in an attempt to distract from the abusers and their ranks.”

“Look at the council membership, and you see an appalling disrespect for the most basic rights,” said Ms. Haley, citing Venezuela, China, Cuba and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

But Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu took to Twitter to welcome the move, saying it showed “enough is enough”.

Replying to @netanyahu

Instead of dealing with regimes that systematically violate human rights, the UNHRC obsessively focuses on Israel, the one genuine democracy in the Middle East.

✔@netanyahu

The US decision to leave this prejudiced body is an unequivocal statement that enough is enough.

Israel welcomes the American announcement.

2…………> “End Of My Glasses”: Trinova Lenses

Over last 8 years, 3M people have been implanted with VSY intraocular lenses through cataract surgery, says company CEO. CEO of Dutch-based VSY Biotechnology Ozge Altunbas Goktekin

Acriva Trinova lenses not only manage cataracts, but also provide people with continuous, quality sight in the near, mid, far, and intermediate ranges, according to the CEO of Dutch-based VSY Biotechnology. 

“Thus, Trinova may end dependency on eyeglasses,” Ozge Altunbas Goktekin told Anadolu Agency in an exclusive interview, noting that Acriva Trinova is the world’s first and only sinusoidal (sine-wave) trifocal intraocular lens.

“Thanks to its special design, Acriva Trinova leads 92 percent of the light into the retina with very high efficiency, making it easier to see even in the darkest places and prevent halos or light distribution,” she said. “That’s how it provides high vision and comfort in dark places.

3…………> Out Of DJI Average: Iconic GE

After being a distinguished component of DJIA for over 100 years, General Electric is losing its place in the most widely followed US index in a move that reflects a fall in the firm’s fortunes and changes to the US economy.

Walgreens Boots Alliance is to take its spot on the financial index, which tracks shares of 30 companies deemed representative of the US economy.

The change takes effect on 26 June 2018

4…………> “Abla Inglese, Por Favor”: Dunkin Doughnuts

Dunkin’ Donuts on West 41st Street in Baltimore, Maryland, is facing customers fury after placing a small red sign on the counter that read:

“If you hear any of our staff shouting in a language other than English, please call 443-415-7775 immediately with the name of the employee to receive a coupon for free coffee and a pastry,” the local paper reported on Monday.

According to Dunkin’ Donuts corporate spokesperson Lindsay Cronin hit the trenches, explaining that the sign was put up by the location’s general manager “based on her own personal judgment.”

“They’re paid to work in Dunkin’ Donuts and serve people and they’ve only been courteous to me, and even if they weren’t, that’s no reason to be able to tell them that they shouldn’t speak in the native language or any other language they want to,” a customer told WCNC.

5…………> Market Report 06/19/2018, sell stop 24,850, CG(10922), 11/22/17

Closed position short 24400, cover shortstop 24500, for a loss of 50 DIA points. Last position long 24500, stop closed at 25100 for a gain of 600 points. New position short 25050, cover short stop at 24850 for a gain of 200 points

Stocks were down 287 to 24700, DJ futures +5, a weak attempt to stage a covering short rally failing.

Gold down to 1275.7 and USD/CHF at 1.01 despite President Trump setting tariffs on Chinese products. Translation? As the dollar goes down, we have to wait and see if the new Fed Chair Jerome Powell will continue pressuring gold and the Eurasian block with it down below $1000/oz in an economic WW3. Watch cover short at 24,850.

We have to wait and see if new Fed chair Powell will attempt to destroy Eurasian block by sending gold prices below 1000, despite the fact both Russia and China have been buying their whole gold production in local gold backed currency instead of money printing machines. In other words, US has lost controls of the precious metals complex, and with Trump’s infrastructure and tax cut campaign the National debt will soon be at, or over 30 trillion dollars, since D.C. swamp alligators have no intention dropping their pet projects. Read “Ziban Must Die” for more details on the coming collision of Trump’s administration with “Deep State” operators funded by the billionaires’ supporters of the New World.

1…………> A Human Stash House: Texas 

On June 14, ICE Border Patrol with assistance from the Eagle Pass (Texas) Police Department identified a suspected stash house operating out of a residence in Eagle Pass. A total of 35 illegal aliens were discovered inside the residence after the Eagle Pass Police Department received a 911 call from the location. A subsequent investigation determined another 12 illegal aliens, who were arrested earlier that day by the Border Patrol, had been transported from the residence. 

HSI special agents arrested three U.S. citizens. All three are facing federal human smuggling charges. 

The 47 individuals included men, women and children from Mexico, Honduras, Guatemala, Colombia and Nicaragua. 

This is an HSI-led investigation with the assistance of CBP’s Border Patrol and Eagle Pass (Texas) Police Department. 

The U.S. Attorney’s Office, Western District of Texas, is prosecuting the criminal case.

2…………> Crooked Bosses: WI 

Two former executives of Roadrunner Transportation Systems Inc., identified as Mark R. Wogsland, 53, and Bret S. Naggs, 52, both of Cedarburg, Wisconsin,  employees of the publicly traded transportation and trucking company formerly headquartered in Cudahy, were charged in an indictment unsealed today for their alleged participation in a complex accounting and securities fraud scheme that resulted in a loss of more than $245 million in shareholder value. 

They were charged in an indictment filed in the Eastern District of Wisconsin with one count of conspiracy to make false statements to a public company’s accountants and to falsify a public company’s books, records and accounts; one count of conspiracy to commit securities fraud and wire fraud; three counts of securities fraud; and four counts of wire fraud. Naggs, the former controller for Roadrunner’s Truckload operating segment, and Wogsland, the former controller and director of accounting for Roadrunner’s Truckload operating segment, both worked out of Roadrunner’s corporate headquarters in Cudahy. Roadrunner Transportation Systems Inc. is currently headquartered in Downers Grove, Illinois. 

“According to the allegations in the indictment, Mark Wogsland and Bret Naggs engaged in a massive securities and accounting fraud scheme that misled shareholders, regulators, and the investing public, and ultimately caused a loss of more than $245 million in shareholder value,” said Acting Assistant Attorney General Cronan. “The Criminal Division is committed to protecting investors and the integrity of U.S. securities exchanges, and we will vigorously pursue corporate executives who engage in deceptive and fraudulent accounting practices.” 

“The stability our financial markets depends upon public companies issuing accurate financial statements,” said U.S. Attorney Matthew D. Krueger. “We commend the FBI and the Department of Transportation Office of Inspector General for its excellent efforts in investigating this case.” 
Three trading days after announcing the restated financial results, Roadrunner’s share price further dropped from $7.14 to $4.90, causing an additional loss in shareholder value of more than $85 million.

3…………> A Death Threat: Canada 

U.S. Ambassador to Canada Kelly Knight Craft received a death threat and suspicious white powder in an envelope mailed to her Ottawa residence, Canadian media reported Friday. 

Authorities from both countries are investigating the incident. 

Canada’s Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland met with Craft Friday. Freeland told the ambassador that the incident was “wholly unacceptable”. 

A supervisor who screens mail “encountered white powder in a letter addressed to the ambassador” Thursday morning, an email to staff read. Also enclosed was an expletive-filled letter threatening to kill Craft if she did not resign. 

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police, as well as firefighters and a hazardous waste team, were dispatched immediately to the residence. The substance has since tested harmless.

4…………> Hidden Writings:  Sinai Manuscripts 

An ancient Christian manuscript discovered in Sinai Monastery of Saint Catherine has each of its pages photographed 33 times using 12 different wavelengths, then images are analyzed using computer algorithms, and several images are combined to make the undertext more legible. 

If this doesn’t yield results, the page is analysed using statistics: each pixel is assigned a value, separated into categories, then manipulated according to those categories to make that selection more visible to the human eye. 

All this trek of discovering the hidden texts in the library of world’s oldest working monastery is made possible by the work of Father Justin, a monk who lives in the Sinai desert in Egypt,  in charge of hauling the library at St Catherine’s into the 21st Century. 

In part of the world well known for its propensity for war and violence, by the Providence of Lord Mohammed “The Magnificent”, a charter was signed in 625AD  “in aid of the Christians” with a gold handprint. A copy of this, guaranteeing the monastery’s protection, hangs in the museum. 

The Jebelaya tribe, local Bedouins, who have helped protect and run the monastery since it was built, are Muslim.

5…………> Trump At G7:  Remarks, Insults & More 

Participants of the G7 meeting had a hard time restraining themselves when the politically incorrect US President Trump shared his shocking insights on migration and terrorism with the President of the Islamic Sheikdom of France, Rabbinical Grand Ayatollah Emmanuel  Macron, threatening to send the Japanese Prime Minister 25 million Mexicans and slammed the European Commission President during talks in Canada, calling him a “brutal killer” for the way the European Union treats the US tech giants. 

“A sense of irritation with Mr. Trump could be felt, but everyone tried to be rational and calm,” a senior EU official admitted.

According to the report, the US President got into debates about trade issues and immigration, and went as far as to reproach Japan’s Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. 
“Shinzo, you don’t have this problem, but I can send you 25 million Mexicans and you’ll be out of office very soon,” Trump allegedly said Abe. 

Attendees were also taken back by what he reportedly told France’s President Emmanuel Macron amid discussions about counter-terrorism and Iran. 

“You must know about this Emmanuel because all the terrorists are in Paris,” Trump told Macron, according to the WSJ.

2…………> Happy 92th “Dear Mum”: Queen Elizabeth 

Large crowds have gathered in London for the annual Trooping the Color to mark Queen Elizabeth II’s 92nd birthday, as British Royal Air Force Red Arrows pilots performed a fly-past and hundreds of soldiers marched to Horse Guards Parade in Whitehall. 

Joining the Queen to watch the event were other senior Royals, including Prince Charles and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, the first time Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle, now known as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, attended the Queen’s birthday celebrations together. 

The Queen — who, until recent years, would attend on a horse — and the newlyweds arrived in open-top carriages at the event that has marked the sovereign’s official birthday for more than 260 years. 

Prince Philip, who retired from public duties last year, did not attend the ceremony that involves more than 1,400 soldiers, 400 musicians, and 200 horses.

3…………> Mr. Trump Goes To G7: Punch, Punch 

President Donald Trump announced on Twitter that he was backing out of the joint communique, confirming that he might double down on import tariffs by hitting the sensitive auto industry, and his adviser Larry Kudlow accused Canadian PM Justin Trudeau of betraying Mr. Trump with “polarizing” statements on trade policy, tossing the current tariffs dispute towards a full-blown diplomatic and trade crisis after Mr.Trump called him “very dishonest and weak”. 

The spat drew in Germany and France, who sharply criticised Mr Trump’s decision to abruptly withdraw his support for a Group of Seven communique hammered out at a Canadian summit on Saturday (local time), accusing him of destroying trust and acting inconsistently. 

 
Donald J. Trump 

✔@realDonaldTrump 

PM Justin Trudeau of Canada acted so meekly and mild during our @G7 meetings only to give a news conference after I left saying that, “US Tariffs were kind of insulting” and he “will not be pushed around.” Very dishonest & weak. Our Tariffs are in response to his of 270% on dairy!

“Canada does not conduct its diplomacy through ad hominem attacks … and we refrain particularly from ad hominem attacks when it comes from a close ally,” a Canadian official told reporters in Quebec City. 

“[Mr. Trudeau] really kind of stabbed us in the back,” Mr. Kudlow, the director of the National Economic Council who had accompanied Mr. Trump to the summit of wealthy nations on Saturday, said on CNN’s State of the Union.

4…………> United SCO: A G7 Havoc & Retreat 

Unlike their “colleagues” at the highly unsuccessful G7 meeting in Ottawa, Canada, where the leftovers of our 1st Muslim President, Grand Ayatollah Barack Obama so called “New World Disorder” crowd spent days to draft a closing resolution that will underscore its unshakable unity in support of the global economy, just to get a big size 17 “Trump boot” in the face and his refusal to sign it, the leaders of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) held the annual summit of the Eurasian institution, with Chinese President Xi Jinping chaired the meeting. 

Blatantly labeled by the “Fake News” media as the “bully boys” of the International community for their refusal to submit to the illegal monetary terror of the Central banks using the Forex market as a tool of political ends, 
at the 18th Meeting of the Council of Heads of Member States of the SCO, Xi called for carrying forward the Shanghai Spirit to surmount difficulties, defuse risks and meet challenges. 

Other SCO leaders also voiced their expectations of future cooperation in various areas so as to give full play to the organization’s role after its expansion.

5…………> The Gulag Years: KGB Archives

Russian newspaper Kommersant cited a Russian museum researching the history of Gulags as saying that prisoner data was being destroyed, presumably under a clandestine order, a claim denied by the Russian deputy minister of internal affairs Igor Zubov, who said that the Gulag documents are “kept forever,” in line with strict formal regulations. The statement followed multiple reports that prisoner records applying to notorious Gulag prison camps which operated in the Soviet Union all the way up to 1960 are allegedly being deleted. 

The records of the mid-20th-century gulag program are — for the most part — ‘registration cards’ featuring prisoners’ personal data as well as tracking their movement between camps as well as their release date if any. In the event of death, authorities sent a special report for permanent storage in the archive. The survivors’ cards, naturally limited in number, often provided exclusive information about their fate. 

Bibi1581.com can only wonder if somewhere in the maddening structure of the KGB there exists an identity card of my uncle who vanished while in custody of the state in 1953 and was reported shipped to the gold mines of the Soviet Union labor caps in the Kolyma River Far East region, never to be heard of again.
