1…………> Life Of Honor & Service: George H.W.Bush

 

“The inspiring life of former President George Herbert Walker Bush, who died Friday at the age of 94, helped ignite a thousand points of light he saw as illuminating American greatness, hope and opportunity, said President Trump,” Allison Elyse Gualtieri reports.

“Through his essential authenticity, disarming wit, and unwavering commitment to faith, family, and country, President Bush inspired generations of his fellow Americans to public service,” President Trump said in a statement.

2…………> Tariff Wars Cease Fire: Trump, Mr.Xi & Co

 

“China will agree to purchase a not yet agreed upon, but very substantial, amount of agricultural, energy, industrial, and other product from the United States to reduce the trade imbalance between our two countries,” White House Press Secretary Ms. Sarah Sanders said, adding that the two “partners” would “immediately begin negotiations on structural changes” around intellectual property protections, cybertheft, and other US priorities.

The White House says President Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping have reached a 90-day ceasefire agreement on new economic tariffs to allow for continuing trade negotiations, with Mr. Trump agreeing not to go ahead with new US tariffs on Chinese imports planned for January 1. European Union officials say the US was the main holdout on nearly every issue, including climate change.

Angela Merkel says “everyone agrees that the WTO should be reformed.

” The two met for dinner in Buenos Aires, Argentina at the end of the G20 meeting. Chinese state television reiterated that “no additional tariffs will be imposed after January 1, and negotiations between the two sides will continue”.

“This was an amazing and productive meeting with unlimited possibilities for both the United States and China. It is my great honor to be working with President Xi,” Mr. Trump said in a statement.

3…………> Ticking Bomb: The Kerch Incident

 

With Moscow backing the industrial heartlands in Eastern Ukraine, Donetsk and Luhansk have broken away and so began the long and bloody war that persists today, with the Russian government refusing to give-up what it considered its territory, Crimea.

The so-called “little green men invaded the strategically vital home to Russia’s Black Sea navy,” being well-armed soldiers with no markings.

The flashpoint between Russia and Ukraine over access from the Black Sea to the Sea of Azov is remarkable in that it did not flare up years ago.

And that’s because the pinch point between the annexed Russian Crimea and the “motherland” known as the Kerch Strait is so loaded with political and military pressures that it’s surprising the clash we have just witnessed hasn’t happened before now.

1…………> Confirm Cavanaugh: Editorial

 

“Judge Kavanaugh was right to call the confirmation process a ‘disgrace’ in his passionate self-defense,” The Wall Street Journal editorial board writes. Dr. Christine Blasey Ford’s “allegation should have been vetted privately, in confidence, as she said she would have preferred. Instead of ranking Democrat Dianne Feinstein held it for six weeks, and it was leaked—perhaps to cause precisely such a hearing circus.”

2…………>Sultan Erdogan Meets Ayatolyn Merkel

 

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan met with the Islamic Merkeldom of Germany Chancellor, righteous Ayatolyn Angela Merkel at a working breakfast to discuss bilateral and international issues.

It was Erdogan and Merkel’s second meeting during the president’s three-day high-profile state visit to Germany.

At a joint press conference afterward, Ayatolyn Merkel vowed to enhance cooperation between the Islamic Merkeldom of Germany and Turkey in the economy and energy and security despite political differences on some issues.

Merkel said their talks on Saturday would focus on bilateral relations and regional issues, including the situation in Syria.

Following his official meetings in Berlin on Saturday, Erdogan is scheduled to proceed to the federal state of North Rhine-Westphalia, which has a large Turkish immigrant population.

In Cologne, Erdogan is expected to attend the inauguration ceremony of Cologne Central Mosque, run by Turkish-Islamic Union for Religious Affairs.

3…………> Indonesia: State of emergency

 

Indonesia declared a state of emergency Saturday for Sulawesi Island in the wake of a powerful earthquake and resulting tsunami.

At least 384 people died after Friday’s 7.7-magnitude earthquake, a spokesman for Indonesia’s disaster management agency said about the mobilization of all state units for aid and recovery efforts.

The tsunami, towering up to three meters high, hit Palu, capital of the Central Sulawesi province, and the northeast of the nearby Donggala Regency.

After its 500-meter airstrip was damaged, Palu’s airport was closed to flights, excepting certain cargo planes.

Indonesian President Joko Widodo ordered troops to the region to support search and rescue efforts.

A hospital ship is on the way with medical equipment and nearly 100 specialist doctors, according to Indonesian officials.

Local media said some 540 people were injured.

4…………> American Power: An Inside Look

The Bureau of Engraving and Printing is the money factory that prints $500 million every day now, and where the US dollar and US government treasuries have been written for more than 150 years, and with no sings of joining the digital revolution.
With 21.51 trillion dollars of National debt, US politicians better get digital and fast, before the dollar is no longer the reserve currency of the world.

5…………>Grandpa Was An Illegal Alien: Literally

 

The building blocks of life, the elements of organic molecules which form living matter, came to Earth from outer space, according to a new study that found out that phosphates and diphosphoric acid, two primary chemicals that form chromosomes carrying our genetic information, were generated billions of light years away from our planet and were delivered to Earth by space wanderers such as asteroids or comets.

The scientists used a vacuum chamber cooled down to near absolute zero to simulate icy interstellar grains coated with carbon dioxide, water, and phosphine.

When exposed to radiation, these grains created both phosphates and diphosphoric acid. “On Earth, phosphine is lethal to living beings,” said Andrew Turner of the University of Hawaii.

“But in the interstellar medium, exotic phosphine chemistry can promote rare chemical reaction pathways to initiate the formation of relevant molecules such as oxoacids of phosphorus, which eventually might spark the molecular evolution of life as we know it.”

“Since comets contain at least partially the remnants of the material of the protoplanetary disk that formed our solar system, these compounds might be traced back to the interstellar medium wherever sufficient phosphine in interstellar ices is available,” said Cornelia Meinert of the University of Nice in France.

1…………>  Forbidden Photos: US Government

During the Great Depression in the 1930s, a US government agency led a propaganda campaign that has only recently been uncovered.

The Whitechapel Gallery in London has dedicated an exhibition to these photographs titled Killed Negatives.

2…………> AG Deputy Rosenstein: US House 

Chairman Goodlatte, Ranking Member Nadler, and members of the Committee, I always welcome the opportunity to appear before this distinguished committee, but this is not a happy occasion.

Federal Bureau of Investigation employees deviated from important principles in 2016 and 2017. Everyone knew about some of the departures when they occurred – such as discussing criminal investigations and encroaching on prosecutorial decisions. We learned about others through an internal investigation – such as leaking to the news media and exhibiting political bias.

We need to correct errors, hold wrongdoers accountable, and deter future violations. Director Wray will describe what the FBI is doing to accomplish those goals. At the Department of Justice, our mandatory annual training will include lessons from the Inspector General’s report, and we are considering other recommendations.

We already revised the Department’s confidentiality policies to emphasize that “non-public, sensitive information obtained in connection with [our] work is protected from disclosure.” We intend to enforce that principle for our employees, and we need to demonstrate respect for it ourselves by protecting sensitive information entrusted to the FBI.

3…………> Trump, Putin Lunch: July 16th 

 

US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin will meet on July 16 in Helsinki, according to the Kremlin and the White House. 

The meeting will be the first official summit between the two leaders that will be closely watched by nervous US allies in Europe and critics of Russia in America. 

The two countries announced the details simultaneously a day after striking a deal on holding the meeting following a visit to Moscow on Wednesday by US national security adviser John Bolton. 

“The two leaders will discuss relations between the United States and Russia and a range of national security issues,” the White House said in a statement.

4…………> Mountain Of Ash: Agung 

 

A number of flights between Australia and Bali have been canceled after the Mount Agung volcano began spewing water vapor and ash a mile up into the air. 
Key points: 

“Due to a volcanic ash cloud caused by Mount Agung in Bali, it is currently not safe to operate flights to or from Denpasar Airport,” the statement said. 

The canceled Jetstar flights include routes between Denpasar and Sydney, Perth, Melbourne, Adelaide, and Cairns.

They added that senior pilots will be assessing the situation overnight and provide an update by 9:00 am Friday.

5…………> Life On Enceladus: Organics Detected 

An international spacecraft has discovered complex organic molecules originating from an icy moon orbiting the planet of Saturn, detected by the Cassini spacecraft after they were ejected in ice grains through cracks in Enceladus’ icy shell.

“It is the first-ever detection of complex organics coming from an extraterrestrial water world,” they said.

Cassini previously flew near to Enceladus in 2005 and discovered lighter organic molecules. Larger molecules like those recently detected are created by chemical processes that could support life, according to the European Space Agency (ESA).
