2) Boris Johnson has proposed dropping biofuel mandates as an approach to quickly produce more food for people. Germany agrees but Joe Biden is blocking.
3) In the U.S. the Biden administration has mandated (they call it a waiver, but that's a misnomer) that ethanol must increase from 10% to 15% for use in gasoline. That's the E15 "waiver."
4) All gasoline refineries must prove they are using the biofuel by sending receipts for their purchase. These are called purchase credits (known as Renewable Identification Numbers, or RINs).
The purchase receipts or RIN credits must be sent to the EPA.
5) Any gasoline refinery that does not use E15 must purchase these RIN credits from parties that blended or imported biofuels directly.
This sets up a secondary income stream, a trading market for the larger oil companies, refineries and importers.
6) E15 requires a complete change in the infrastructure of the gasoline company from the refinery to storage, to transportation and eventually to the retailer.
E15 infrastructure does not widely exist. So, most gasoline refineries use the RIN credit system to sell non E15 gas.
7) The price of the RIN credits becomes embedded in the price of the gasoline.
When a mandate for E15 year-round is in place, that drives up the cost of gasoline, because more RIN credits need to be purchased. (Current Biden policy)
8) Think of it this way. Metaphor: The govt requires that margarine be used instead of butter in making bread.
The bread makers do not have equipment that will support the use of margarine instead of butter (and the bread customer does not want margarine).
9) The govt gives the bread maker the option of paying $1 to the USDA for not using margarine and to continue using butter.
The bread maker is forced to make a decision. Change equipment ($$$) or pay $1 to govt for each continued loaf of bread using butter.
10) The result of bread makers not switching to margarine means each loaf of bread now costs an additional $1 to you the customer.
This bread example is analogous to the RIN credit gasoline refinery issue with biofuels.
11) Mandating increased use of biofuels for gasoline is one part of the climate change agenda. ie. The Green New Deal and/or 'Build Back Better' policy agenda.
12) Mandating increased use of biofuels also means farmland used for human food production is now switched to create biofuel.
PM Johnson proposed dropping this approach in order to quickly produce more food with a pending global food shortage looming.
13) Justin Trudeau (Canada) and Joe Biden (USA) blocked the approach to increase food production, saying the climate change agenda is more important than feeding people.
14) NATO and Western Govt, led by the policy of Joe Biden have placed oil and gas sanctions against Russia.
Those U.S-led Russian energy sanctions follow similar sanctions already in place against oil and gas from Iran and Venezuela.
15) Simultaneously the G7, Western Alliance will not allow Africa to develop their own use of natural gas to produce fertilizer to increase crop yield/harvest.
The G7 control food production in Africa by controlling the energy company investment needed to manufacture fertilizer.
16) Again, as with the biofuel issue, the G7 and Western Alliance are prioritizing Climate Change energy policy over food production. Which will ultimately cause food shortages and famine.
17) However, now the "WEST" has an ideological problem.
People will figure this out. The absence of food will change things. People will get angry once they realize the absence of food is being caused by Western Govt prioritizing Climate Change over people.
18) Things will get intense. Things will get ugly. The Western "leaders" need a scapegoat, a way to focus the world's anger away from them... and toward something else.
19) Their already visible plan (Kirby example) is to place the blame here 👇
20) When the food shortage becomes serious, I mean when it really becomes serious, the blame escalation will need to increase in direct proportion to the hunger, famine and starvation.
This means they will need a direct war with Russia.
21) All of this "globally," which includes the energy driven inflation surfacing in the nations participating in the Build Back Better energy policy approach, is being driven by nations in Yellow.👇
This is the geopolitical battle, a narrative war, ahead of the looming hot war.

On Friday November 18th, 2016, The Washington Post reported on a recommendation in “October” that Mike Rogers be removed from his NSA position:
..."The heads of the Pentagon and the nation’s intelligence community have recommended to President Obama that the director of the National Security Agency, Adm. Michael S. Rogers, be removed.
The recommendation, delivered to the White House last month, was made by Defense Secretary Ashton B. Carter and Director of National Intelligence James R. Clapper Jr., according to several U.S. officials familiar with the matter.
[…] In a move apparently unprecedented for a military officer, Rogers, without notifying superiors, traveled to New York to meet with Trump on Thursday at Trump Tower. That caused consternation at senior levels of the administration, according to the officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss internal personnel matters."...
In February and March 2017 HPSCI Chairman Devin Nunes, a gang of eight member, reviewed intelligence reports that were assembled exclusively for the office of the former President (Obama). That is why he went to the Eisenhower Executive Office Building (EEOB) Information Facility to review.
After Devin Nunes review the information March 22nd, 2017, Nunes stated the intelligence product he reviewed was “not related to Russia, or the FBI Russian counter-intelligence investigation”.
House Intelligence Committee Chairman, Devin Nunes, then held a brief press conference and stated he had been provided intelligence reports brought to him by unnamed sources that include ‘significant information’ about President-Elect Trump and his transition team.
Quotes from the presser:
1.) …”On numerous occasions the [Obama] intelligence community incidentally collected information about U.S. citizens involved in the Trump transition.”
2.) “Details about U.S. persons associated with the incoming administration; details with little or no apparent foreign intelligence value were widely disseminated in intelligence community reporting.”
3.) “Third, I have confirmed that additional names of Trump transition members were unmasked.”
4.) “Fourth and finally, I want to be clear; none of this surveillance was related to Russia, or the investigation of Russian activities.
“The House Intelligence Committee will thoroughly investigate surveillance and its subsequent dissemination, to determine a few things here that I want to read off:”
•“Who was aware of it?” •“Why was it not disclosed to congress?” •“Who requested and authorized the additional unmasking?” •“Whether anyone directed the intelligence community to focus on Trump associates?” •“And whether any laws, regulations or procedures were violated?”
“I have asked the Directors of the FBI, NSA and CIA to expeditiously comply with my March 15th [2017] letter -that you all received a couple of weeks ago- and to provide a full account of these surveillance activities.”
Back in 2017 when House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes was working to reauthorize the FISA legislation, Nunes wrote a letter to ODNI Dan Coats about this specific issue:
There is little doubt the NSA database was used by Obama-era officials, from 2012 through April 2016, as a way to spy on their political opposition. Quite simply there is no other intellectually honest explanation for the scale and volume of database abuse that was taking place.
When we reconcile what was taking place and who was involved, then the actions of the exact same principal participants take on a jaw-dropping amount of clarity.
All of the action taken by CIA Director Brennan, FBI Director Comey, ODNI Clapper and Defense Secretary Ashton Carter make sense. Including their effort to get NSA Director Mike Rogers fired.
Russia-Gate, the Steele Dossier and even the 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment (drawn from the dossier and signed by the above) were needed to create a cover-story and protect themselves from discovery of this four-year weaponization, political surveillance and unlawful spying.
This is why President Obama was willing to push the Russiagate story with his activity in December of 2016 after the election. Obama wasn’t only dirtying up President Trump, Obama was using Russiagate as a cover for the spying that took place using the NSA database.
Even the appointment of Robert Mueller as special counsel makes sense; Mueller was FBI Director when the use of the NSA database surveillance began. Aaron Zebly was his chief-of-staff.
The beginning decision to use FISA (702) as a domestic surveillance and political spy mechanism appears to have started in/around 2012. Perhaps sometime shortly before the 2012 presidential election and before John Brennan left the White House and moved to CIA. However, there was an earlier version of data assembly that preceded this effort.
Political spying 1.0 was actually the weaponization of the IRS.
This is where the term “Secret Research Project” originated as a description from the Obama team. It involved the U.S. Department of Justice under Eric Holder and the FBI under Robert Mueller. It never made sense why Eric Holder requested over 1 million tax records via CD ROM, until overlaying the timeline of the FISA abuse:
The IRS sent the FBI “21 disks constituting a 1.1-million-page database of information from 501(c)(4) tax exempt organizations to the Federal Bureau of Investigation.” The transaction occurred in October 2010
1. Former National Security Advisor John Bolton is a well-documented neocon, who operates inside the business model of selling U.S. foreign policy influence for personal gain. His activity mirrors that of former Senator John McCain in many regards.
John Bolton sold his access, contacts and ability to influence policy to the highest bidder. In DC parlance they call that a “consultant.” When the consulting is contracted for a specific foreign national interest, the title shifts to “lobbyist.” That was his job, and all of Washington DC knows it.
Washington DC operates on this business model; the entire system will be soft to criticize Bolton, and many will likely defend him.
2. The FBI raid on his residence and office has led to a considerable amount of speculation. However, as some background details start to come out, it appears CIA Director John Ratcliffe provided FBI Director Kash Patel with specifics on the international travels and efforts of Bolton.
That CIA referral has led to an FBI investigation under the auspices of potential violations of the espionage act, where Bolton would have leveraged current or prior classified intelligence information as part of his influence business.
Almost identically to former Senator John McCain, John Bolton was well known to intersect with the nation of Qatar as part of his operation. Qatar has deep pockets and a long-identified influence operation throughout the middle east and the United States, sometimes playing all sides.
Qatar is also the playground for the CIA.
While it is yet unknown which nation and which activity Bolton was likely engaged in, the highest probability centers around the deepest pockets, which would also put Bolton on the CIA radar.
3. "The information that provided the basis for the warrant to search John Bolton’s home on Friday was based on intelligence collected overseas by the C.I.A., according to people who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing criminal investigation.
John Ratcliffe, the C.I.A. director, provided Kash Patel, the F.B.I. director, with limited access to the intelligence. It involved the mishandling of classified material by Mr. Bolton, the people said.
The search of the home and office of Mr. Bolton, who was national security adviser during President Trump’s first term, was a major escalation of a long-running inquiry into whether he collected or leaked sensitive national security information, law enforcement officials said.
The nature of the intelligence collected overseas is not known. The F.B.I. obtained the search warrant after presenting evidence to a federal judge. Mr. Bolton’s office declined to comment.
The C.I.A. and F.B.I. regularly cooperate on counterterrorism investigations. It is unusual for the C.I.A. to so prominently provide information for a high-profile investigation of a former U.S. official."...
1) It's an interesting file release, albeit with little current criminal value all things considered (in total).
As I regretfully noted in 2018, all of the 2017 media leaks by Comey, McCabe and Baker *COULD* be justified (sketchy, but enough for plausible deniability and/or reasonable doubt) under the auspices of a counterintelligence operation being actively run by the FBI. [Remember, they're crooked DC f**kers]
Essentially: 'We're strategically leaking to judge the cause, effect and response from the investigative targets' as part of the overall operation etc. etc. Because this is an exceptionally unique investigation. blah, blah, blah...
Absolutely nothing will come of it, AND that cannot be emphasized enough; because in the final analysis, evidence released to John Solomon - is, by its nature - never going to be used in court proceedings. But here's some first review perspectives on the release anyway.
March 22, 2017, was two days after James Comey's first testimony to the HPSCI on March 20, where he admitted publicly for the first time President Donald Trump was the target of an FBI counterintelligence investigation.
[Comey's 3/20/17 testimony was three days after SSCI Mark Warner and James Wolfe leaked the FISA to media. The intent was momentum for a special counsel. After the 3/17/17 FISA leak it made no sense for Comey to keep denying Trump was a target. Hence the admission on 3/20/17.
John Durham used in March 2017. That's new. A full two years before his name surfaced publicly via Bill Barr. The origin of the Durham weave? Interesting.
Assigned by Dana Boente 3/22/17 based on a criminal referral from [XXXXX] redacted?
[That redaction is likely 28/29 characters]
"House Intelligence Committee"? Possible fit.
Again, a review/context:
Sessions recused March 2nd
Nunes Presser March 16th
Wolfe/Warner leak March 17th
Comey Testimony March 20th

3. The now well-known "prohibited access files" in sentinel system, being used.
Abandoned by his father to a troubled single mother; eventually raised by grandparents. He is then recruited from an Ivy league law school by shadow figures, a specific billionaire and a network of interests. He changes his name, writes a book about his life story, and with the support of the aforementioned – who eventually pays for the assembly of a strategic campaign influence network, becomes a Senator for 2 years before being quickly elevated into position in the White House.
Many people reading that paragraph would be familiar with the life story of Barack Hussien Obama.
However, that paragraph doesn't describe Barack H Obama. Nope, it is the right-side version of the exact same storyline, James David Vance.
On one side of the UniParty mirror we have an emotionally constructed political figure for the left. On the other side of the UniParty mirror we have an emotionally constructed political figure for the right. Each person, each emotional narrative, carrying the specific nuances to appeal to their wing of the UniParty audience. However, both are following the same playbook.
JD Vance was born James Donald Bowman in Middletown, Ohio (August 2, 1984). He then changed his name to James David Bowman. He then changed his name to James David Hamel. Eventually, in 2014, notably after Yale Law School (class of 2013) and after marrying his wife Usha, now age 30, he changed his name to write a book.

2/ DC – “Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) and House Jan. 6 Select Committee has tapped Mary McCord, who once ran the Justice Department’s National Security Division, for representation in its fight to obtain former President Donald Trump’s White House records."
3/ .."I am exercising my authority under the Constitution to pardon General Mark A. Milley, Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, the Members of Congress and staff who served on the Select Committee, and the U.S. Capitol and D.C. Metropolitan police officers who testified before the Select Committee."...
