Trump’s Tax Cuts Deliver $43 Billion Surge in Refunds
Blogger Comment: Love him or hate him at least Trump is giving back to the American people and I have never seen any Democrats leadership do anything equivalent in this respect, except take off the working man and woman as much a they can or borrow heavy and put the American people into huge continual debt…for Clinton, Obama and Biden adopted this way of working for the people of America…and where at least Trump is not and giving the people back what he can after the devastating economic affects the effects that the Obama and Biden Administrations unleashed on the American people…I just wish we had an equivalent in the UK, where the left-wing Labour Party is just a mirror image of the US Democrat leadership and their destructive mindset…
.
American taxpayers received nearly $300 billion in tax refunds during the 2026 filing season, with a new government report crediting much of the increase to President Donald Trump’s tax cuts for tipped and overtime workers.
According to a Government Accountability Office (GAO) report released this month, the IRS issued $296 billion in refunds during the 2026 filing season, marking a $43 billion increase, or 17%, over the previous year.
The average refund climbed by $333, an 11% increase, while the agency issued more than eight million additional refunds compared to 2025.
Trump’s Tax Law Boosted Refunds
The GAO said the increase was driven in part by provisions in Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act, including new tax deductions for qualified tips and overtime pay.
The deductions fulfilled two of Trump’s signature campaign promises, allowing millions of Americans to keep more of the money they earned.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt pointed to the report as evidence the administration’s tax agenda is benefiting working families.
“As we have seen this tax season, President Trump’s Working Families Tax Cuts have put a historic amount of money back into the pockets of the American people this year,” Leavitt said.
Trump predicted the impact months before taxpayers began filing.
“You know, the Great, Big, Beautiful Bill just kicked in, and you’re going to see some tremendous numbers,” the president said in January.
The GAO’s figures appear to bear that out, with an additional $43 billion flowing back to taxpayers in a single filing season.
Most Refunds Arrived Quickly
For taxpayers using direct deposit, refunds generally arrived without delay.
The GAO found that roughly 90% of electronically deposited refunds were issued within 21 days.
The IRS also encouraged taxpayers to abandon paper checks, sending approximately 4.2 million notices urging filers to provide bank account information for direct deposits.
The effort dramatically reduced paper refunds.
By early April, the number of paper refund checks had fallen from roughly 2.8 million the previous year to just under 500,000.
Taxpayers also made record use of the agency’s online services.
The IRS recorded approximately 155 million successful logins to taxpayer accounts through April, while its “Where’s My Refund?” tool was accessed 346 million times.
Paper Filers Faced Major Delays
While most electronic filers received refunds promptly, taxpayers relying on paper returns experienced significant delays.
According to the GAO, paper-check recipients waited an average of 36 days for refunds, nearly three times longer than the 13-day average during the previous filing season.
“Most paper check refunds were delayed by weeks,” the report stated.
Business taxpayers also encountered growing backlogs.
The average processing time for quarterly payroll tax returns increased to 72 days, up from 45 days in 2025 and 25 days in 2024.
Individual paper returns averaged 30 days to process, more than double the IRS’s internal target.
IRS Staffing And Technology Problems Hampered Processing
The GAO attributed many of the delays to staffing shortages and outdated technology.
By the end of the filing season, the IRS Submission Processing division had 8,111 employees, down 18% from the previous year.
IRS officials acknowledged to the GAO that the agency lacked enough employees “to process returns timely.”
Technology problems compounded the staffing shortage.
According to the report, the IRS’s individual paper-processing system could not process 2025 tax returns during the first six weeks of the filing season.
Its scanning system for business paper returns failed to process current-year filings throughout the entire filing season.
The GAO reported:
“IRS’s individual paper processing system was unable to process tax year 2025 returns for the first six weeks of 2026, and its scanning system for business paper returns was unable to process tax year 2025 returns for the entire 2026 filing season.”
IRS officials blamed the problems on the loss of experienced information technology acquisition personnel.
Agency Relied Heavily on Outside Contractors
Unable to process millions of paper returns internally, the IRS increasingly relied on outside contractors.
The agency outsourced approximately 3.7 million business paper returns for scanning, a 725% increase over the prior year.
Meanwhile, IRS employees processed substantially fewer paper returns than during the previous filing season, despite still receiving nearly nine million paper filings.
GAO Highlights Tax Law Success, IRS Operational Challenges
The GAO report paints a sharply divided picture of the 2026 filing season.
On one hand, Trump’s tax legislation delivered substantially larger refunds for millions of Americans, particularly workers benefiting from the new deductions for tips and overtime pay.
On the other, the report found the IRS struggled with staffing shortages, aging technology, and paper-processing delays that left many taxpayers waiting weeks longer than normal for their refunds.
While the tax law succeeded in putting billions of additional dollars back into taxpayers’ pockets, the GAO’s findings also raise questions about whether the IRS is adequately equipped to administer an increasingly complex tax code ahead of future filing seasons.

Russia Launches ‘Doomsday Submarine’ Carrying Nuclear Poseidon Weapons Capable of ‘Unleashing Tsunamis’
Blogger Comment: Never underestimate Russian science as I met some of their top scientists in Bishkek, kyrgyzstan a couple of decades ago with the President of kyrgyzstan and they were briliant in what they could create and where don’t forget they have quite a few world firsts in science…first man in space, first satelite in space, Dmitri Mendeleev’s creation of the periodic table, Aleksandr Popov’s invention of the first radio receiver, the development of the first solar cell by Aleksandr Stoletov, first universally programmable electronic computer, MESM, in 1950, and the first large-scale computer, BESM-1., the largest nuclear bomb ever constructed the Tsar Bomba with a yield of 50 megatons of TNT (and 1,570-times more powerful thatn both atomic bombs together dropped on Japan kiling 140,000 Japanese), where they also advanced early computer technology for scientific and the invention of the television’s iconoscope by Vladimir Zworykin et al…the list is seriously endless…
.
Russian President Vladimir Putin’s terrifying new nuclear “doomsday submarine” has reportedly been put to sea for the first time, carrying weapons designed to potentially unleash radioactive tsunamis against enemy coastlines.
The Kremlin quietly sent the 10,000-ton Khabarovsk nuclear submarine into sea trials in the White Sea last week.
The vessel has been specifically designed to carry as many as six Poseidon nuclear-powered torpedoes alongside conventional anti-ship and land-attack missiles.
Poseidon has been described by former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev as a genuine “doomsday weapon.”
The deployment comes as Kremlin propagandists openly call for Putin to unleash the weapon against Britain.
Russian State TV Threatens to ‘Hit’ Britain with Poseidon
The Poseidon torpedo is unlike a conventional nuclear missile.
The massive underwater weapon is reportedly between 65 and 80 feet long, approximately 6.5 feet in diameter, and capable of traveling more than 6,000 miles.
It is also said to be capable of diving to depths of approximately 3,280 feet.
The weapon’s most chilling potential use involves detonating its nuclear warhead underwater near an enemy coastline.
Analysts say such a blast could potentially generate a massive radioactive surge toward shore, devastating coastal cities and contaminating surrounding areas.
Russian propagandists have repeatedly seized on that scenario to threaten Western nations.
In recent days, prominent Kremlin voices have demanded retaliation against Britain over its decision to provide Ukraine with drones subsequently used to strike Russian territory.
Russian state television presenter Vladimir Solovyov issued an extraordinary threat against the UK.
“Give the British three days to learn to breathe underwater, then hit them with Poseidon,” Solovyov said.
Russian media figures have previously boasted that Poseidon could “drown Britain.”
Western analysts have cautioned that some of those apocalyptic claims are likely exaggerated and that the feasibility of creating a continent-spanning radioactive tsunami remains uncertain.
However, the weapon was deliberately conceived to create precisely that kind of nuclear terror.
Putin Claims ‘There Is No Way to Intercept It’
Putin has personally touted Poseidon as a weapon without an equivalent anywhere else in the world.
Earlier this year, the Russian leader confirmed that the system had been tested after being launched from a submarine and activating its onboard nuclear reactor.
“There is nothing like this,” Putin told military officials last year.
“There is no way to intercept it.”
Putin’s assertion that Poseidon cannot be intercepted has not been independently verified.
Nevertheless, the system was developed in response to the United States withdrawing from the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty in 2002.
Its purpose is to provide Russia with another means of delivering catastrophic nuclear retaliation even against an adversary protected by increasingly sophisticated missile defenses.
The weapon is designed to travel underwater rather than follow the trajectory of a conventional ballistic missile.
That potentially gives Russia another route around traditional missile-defense systems.
And even if Poseidon cannot produce every apocalyptic effect described by Kremlin propagandists, an underwater nuclear detonation near a populated coastline could still have devastating consequences.
Coastal infrastructure could be destroyed, harbors contaminated, and surrounding areas exposed to radioactive material.
Experts Warn Russia Would Face Devastating Nuclear Retaliation
Despite the threats coming from Russian television, defense experts believe Putin would be extremely unlikely to actually deploy Poseidon against Britain except in the most catastrophic circumstances.
Dr. Richard Connolly, an expert on Russian defense policy and associate fellow at the Royal United Services Institute, described Poseidon as a specialized weapon intended for an extreme scenario.
“Poseidon is what you might call a boutique capability,” Connolly said.
“They are not making it in large numbers, and it’s been designed for the very worst of scenarios.”
He warned that any Russian nuclear attack against Britain would trigger the threat of devastating retaliation from the UK’s Trident nuclear deterrent.
“If they were to do what the Russian TV presenters are proposing, they’d face retaliation from Britain’s Trident nuclear deterrent,” Connolly said.
“So they wouldn’t do it, because they know they’d pay a price.”
That deterrence calculation remains the central barrier preventing nuclear threats from becoming nuclear war.
But Khabarovsk’s first trip to sea means the Kremlin is moving closer to having another operational system capable of delivering its nuclear arsenal.
Russia’s $1 Billion Nuclear Monster Heads to Sea
The Khabarovsk reportedly cost approximately $1 billion to build and displaces around 10,000 tons.
Russian Defense Minister Andrei Belousov previously celebrated the submarine as a major expansion of Moscow’s underwater military capabilities.
“The heavy nuclear-powered missile cruiser Khabarovsk is being launched from the renowned Sevmash shipyard,” Belousov said.
“Carrying underwater weapons and robotic systems, it will enable us to successfully secure Russia’s maritime borders and protect its national interests in various parts of the world’s oceans.”
The submarine has now quietly moved from the shipyard into sea trials.
For years, Poseidon has existed largely as one of the Kremlin’s most ominous nuclear threats.
The weapon is surrounded by propaganda, extraordinary claims, and warnings of radioactive waves crashing into Western cities.
Now the submarine built to carry up to six of the weapons has reportedly gone to sea for the first time.
And as Moscow’s propagandists openly fantasize about using Poseidon against Britain, Russia’s newest nuclear threat is moving another step closer to operational reality.

DeSantis Orders Mass Removal of All Flock Cameras in Florida Over ‘Surveillance State’ Fears
Blogger Comment: At least one US Governor and a few others have got it right here, but what about the rest, as this mass surveillance is getting just like China where the CCP rule with an iron fist on their people with ntheir freedom suppression, or are we just getting like a communist regime in the West also…apparently its looking that way…
.
Florida’s Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis has ordered the removal of all controversial Flock cameras and other license plate readers from state highways amid explosive concerns that the technology is being abused to track innocent Americans.
DeSantis ordered all Flock license plate recognition cameras operating on Florida’s State Highway System to be ripped out within 30 days.
The sweeping order covers state-controlled roads and major interstates, including I-10 and I-75.
Florida officials are also immediately halting the issuance of new permits for the surveillance technology.
The crackdown comes as evidence mounts that powerful artificial intelligence-driven camera networks have been misused by law enforcement personnel to secretly track Americans, including former romantic partners.
DeSantis warned that the rapidly expanding technology threatens to push Florida toward becoming a “surveillance state.”
“I think people are right to be concerned,” DeSantis said.
Florida Pulls the Plug on Mass Surveillance Cameras
The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) formally revoked permits for License Plate Recognition Systems in an August 31 memo issued by Assistant Secretary and Chief Operating Officer Will Watts.
The agency cited the “recent exponential increase in deployments along our roadways, coupled with concerning reports of misuse, data privacy concerns, and surveillance schemes.”
Under the order, local law enforcement agencies have 30 days to remove the cameras from state rights-of-way.
If they refuse, Florida will remove the devices itself.
No new permits will be issued.
The move represents a major blow to the rapidly expanding network of automated cameras capable of recording vehicles and compiling searchable information about their movements.
An estimated 7,500 license plate readers are being used by roughly 100 law enforcement agencies across Florida.
More than 100,000 have reportedly been deployed nationwide.
DeSantis made clear that supporting police does not require giving government agencies unlimited surveillance powers.
“But, you also have to say, okay, how could this be misused?” DeSantis said.
“And how could a private company misuse the data, but also law enforcement?
“We know there was an officer in Florida who was using the LPR data to track, like, an ex-girlfriend or something like that.”
It comes after DeSantis declared last week that the situation has gotten “out of control.”
WATCH:
Evidence of Abuse Sparks Alarm
The governor’s intervention follows disturbing reports about how the technology has been used.
An analysis of more than five million Flock searches in Florida uncovered instances involving officers searching for ex-romantic partners, protesters, and suspected illegal aliens.
The system also reportedly does not require officers to provide a reason for every search.
Across five states, at least 19 police and sheriff’s office employees were arrested, fired, suspended, or investigated after suspicious Flock searches were uncovered.
Most of those cases involved employees tracking former romantic partners.
Even more alarming, journalists reportedly uncovered the suspicious patterns in nearly every case before the agencies employing the officers did.
Several Florida sheriff’s departments are now going further than DeSantis’ state-highway order.
Sheriff’s offices in Putnam, Liberty, and Franklin counties announced they will terminate their own license plate-reader programs following the crackdown.
DeSantis Draws Line Against ‘Surveillance State’
The state order currently applies only to roads controlled under Florida’s State Highway System.
That means cameras could remain on county and municipal roads unless local governments remove them or state lawmakers impose broader restrictions.
DeSantis is pushing the Florida Legislature to confront the issue and has repeatedly called for an artificial intelligence bill of rights to protect citizens as surveillance technology becomes increasingly sophisticated.
The governor has stressed that police should have effective tools to catch violent criminals while drawing a clear line against creating an infrastructure capable of tracking law-abiding citizens’ movements.
The exploding use of AI-powered surveillance cameras has increasingly raised precisely that concern.
While supporters point to cases in which license plate readers have helped locate kidnapping suspects and dangerous fugitives, the same infrastructure can potentially create an enormous database of Americans’ movements.
With thousands of cameras already deployed throughout Florida, DeSantis is now moving to stop that network from spreading across state-controlled highways.
For at least the remainder of his administration, Florida’s major state roadways will no longer be available for the unchecked expansion of the automated surveillance system.
And DeSantis is making clear that public safety cannot become an excuse for turning the Sunshine State into a government-controlled surveillance network.

Tennessee Official Erupts Over Flock Surveillance Network: ‘Enemy of the American People’
Blogger Comment: And what do Americans say and do against mass surveillance where the debate is now national across the whole of the USA…I wonder if the UK and EU can take any advice here from this and reduce the vast mass surveillance on their people and where all this cannot just be for their so-called protection can it and just what China and the CCP dictate to their people also…no I believe it is far more sinister situation looking into the future and knowing what the Globalists in Davos have in store for us all come 2030 with their Agenda 2030 (no its not the UN’s Agenda 2030, as they are only the front men for the Globalist elites and always have been, as it was Globalist’s construct from the start just after WW2 as a global control mechanism…for them, not us)….
.
A Tennessee county commissioner has gone viral after unleashing a blistering attack on Flock Safety over the company’s rapidly expanding network of automated license plate readers, declaring that Americans are furious about being tracked wherever they go.
Kingsport Commissioner Joe Carr reportedly confronted a Flock representative during an August 13 public work session as outrage continues to explode nationwide over the company’s controversial surveillance cameras.
Carr accused Flock of building an infrastructure capable of monitoring Americans’ movements on a massive scale.
“I believe that Flock right now is one of the most hated companies in America,” Carr told the representative.
“They are one of the most corrupt companies in America,” Carr continued.
Carr then went considerably further.
“Quite frankly, sir, I don’t think we can make America great again without hanging your CEO publicly for treason,” Carr said.
“Your company is an enemy of the American people,” he added.
WATCH:
The meeting leader immediately interrupted Carr, telling him: “Mr. Carr, we are not going to threaten violence to anybody.”
But Carr’s furious confrontation quickly spread across social media as Americans increasingly push back against the nationwide expansion of Flock’s surveillance network.
Americans Revolt Against Flock Surveillance
Carr later clarified that he was not advocating extrajudicial violence against Flock executives.
“I didn’t call for lynchings, I called for due process,” Carr said in a statement.
“You want to try the guy first, and I don’t support political random killings.
“I definitely don’t,” Carr continued.
“But at the same time, you know, the American people are angry.
“I felt, and I think a lot of them felt, that no elected official was really going hard enough on this.
“And so I wanted to be the guy to do that.”
Carr said the extraordinary public reaction to his remarks demonstrates just how deep opposition to the cameras has become.
“I think probably the biggest story though isn’t really my comments, but people’s reaction to them,” Carr said.
“You can go on any of the posts about it and like 99 percent of the replies are agreeing with me.
“And I think that’s where the American people are at right now.”
Carr argued that Americans should not have their everyday movements catalogued simply because they drive on public roads.
“People have a right to go about their business without being spied on,” Carr said.
“Whether or not they’re going to work or going to church, picking their kids up from school, going to football practice or whatever, they have a right to do all these things without being spied on and without having the government logging their every move.”
Sheriff Suspends Cameras amid Privacy Backlash
Within days of Carr’s confrontation, Sullivan County Sheriff Jeff Cassidy suspended all 10 Flock automated license plate readers operating in the county.
Cassidy cited “legitimate concerns” involving “privacy, oversight, and government surveillance.”
The sheriff also asked the Sullivan County Commission to consider putting the issue directly before voters in a referendum that would determine whether his department should be permitted to reactivate the cameras.
“I believe the safeguards currently in place within our agency provide clear guidelines for the proper use of this technology,” Cassidy said.
“If an employee abuses or misuses the technology, we will take quick and decisive action, up to and including termination or prosecution when warranted,” he added.
The sheriff’s office has pointed to crimes that Flock cameras helped solve, including the location of a child predator who escaped federal custody in a neighboring city.
Carr acknowledged that the technology can provide law enforcement benefits but warned that the enormous surveillance capability could become far more dangerous if abused, hacked, or placed in the hands of an authoritarian government.
“If you use this inappropriately or if it gets hacked, and it’s a national security risk by a foreign actor, it could very quickly snowball and become something that outweighs all of the positives that have accrued up to that point,” Carr said.
“Or, Heaven forbid, you get a government that starts acting totalitarian,” he continued.
“And then they have the infrastructure in place, and you can’t really get rid of it once it’s there.”
Massive Network Tracks Vehicles across America
The backlash comes as Flock’s surveillance infrastructure has spread across virtually the entire country.
More than 135,000 automated license plate readers have been identified nationwide, according to DeFlock.org.
Roughly four out of every five reportedly belong to Flock.
Flock says its cameras are operating in 49 states.
Mounted alongside roadways, the devices capture license plates and identifying characteristics of passing vehicles.
The company insists that its cameras do not continuously record video or use facial recognition to identify the occupants of vehicles.
Flock also says customers own the data collected by its systems and that every search must include a documented reason that is logged for later review.
However, documented cases of police officers using the technology to track former romantic partners have intensified fears about what happens when powerful surveillance tools are abused.
Public anger has now reached the point where cameras have been vandalized in at least 36 states.
Roughly 100 municipalities have also canceled or deactivated their contracts with Flock.
Carr warned that the fundamental problem is not merely how the technology is being used today, but the surveillance architecture being constructed for whoever controls it tomorrow.
Bipartisan Revolt Grows
Resistance to Flock has become one of the rare political issues drawing opposition from both Republicans and Democrats.
“I mean, this has probably been one of the most unifying things that I’ve seen in my lifetime,” Carr said.
“It’s not really a left or right issue, because I think the one thing that people really understand innately, even if they’re not expressing it, is that they wouldn’t trust their worst enemy with the technology.”
Republican Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX) recently paused Texas state funding for Flock cameras.
Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) has warned against allowing Florida to become a “digital AI surveillance state.”
Florida’s Department of Transportation subsequently moved to revoke existing permits for automated license plate readers installed within state highway rights-of-way.
Meanwhile, Democrat Gov. Josh Shapiro (D-PA) has backed efforts for a bipartisan statewide ban on Flock cameras in Pennsylvania.
Carr said Americans across the political spectrum must unite before the surveillance infrastructure becomes permanently embedded throughout the country.
“We need to work together,” Carr said.
“It doesn’t matter who’s pulling with us on this.
“We need to work together and make sure that our descendants aren’t spied on forever.”

Cities Dump Flock Surveillance Cameras as Privacy Backlash Surges Across America
Blogger Comment: The majority of people do not realise that this is all part of the Globalist plan the 2030 Agenda to have surveillance 24/7/365 over the people and it is not for your benefit in reality either, but for those who wish you harm…for this control over the people has now been going on since1971 at least when the WEF in Davos was founded by the richest and most powerful elites on the planet to eventually control western civilization when the Globalists have completed their One World Government to oversee humanity by 2030 (a mere three years from now and where they have created their master plan with all sorts of global catastrophes so that you succumbs to their control over the people…for they have stated this in Davos many times since the World Economic Forum’s (WEF) inception some 55 years ago…
.
American cities are abandoning Flock Safety’s AI-powered surveillance cameras at a rapidly accelerating pace as concerns grow over privacy, government surveillance, and the potential abuse of a nationwide network capable of tracking motorists.
An average of three local governments per day terminated their Flock contracts through August, according to research from California-based advocacy organization Secure Justice.
Since 2021, 214 cities and counties have ended their agreements with the surveillance company.
Ninety of those cancellations occurred in August alone.
That represents a fourfold increase from July.
The mounting backlash comes as prominent Republicans, including Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, raise alarms about the technology and its potential for abuse.
Hawley Launches Investigation Into Flock
Flock’s automated license plate readers photograph vehicles and allow authorities to search information collected through networks of connected cameras.
As those networks have expanded, so has scrutiny over who can access the information, how long it is retained, and how it can be used.
Hawley announced last week that he is “investigating Flock Safety’s collection, retention, and dissemination of the data generated by its artificial intelligence surveillance cameras.”
DeSantis also sounded the alarm after two Florida police officers were arrested for allegedly misusing the system.
The Republican governor said Flock’s cameras had become “out of control” in Florida.
“When I see, like, a police officer using this to track, like, an ex-girlfriend, I’m like, you know what the hell’s going on?” DeSantis said.
The controversy underscores one of the central concerns surrounding mass surveillance technology: Systems introduced as tools for catching criminals can also provide government employees with extraordinary capabilities to track ordinary Americans.
AI makes those capabilities significantly more powerful.
Critics Warn of ‘Mass Surveillance Dragnet’
Jake Laperruque, deputy director of the Center for Democracy and Technology’s Security and Surveillance Project, warned that artificial intelligence is transforming traditional license plate readers into something far more expansive.
“Maybe in the past it didn’t feel like every red light cam really meant a pair of eyes was watching you, but with AI, that’s increasingly becoming the reality,” Laperruque said.
“And we’re already seeing how AI can morph ALPRs [automated license plate readers] into a mass surveillance dragnet.”
Laperruque pointed to systems that allow cameras to be searched using keywords and descriptions, the incorporation of real-time facial recognition into municipal camera networks, and Border Patrol’s use of AI to analyze license-plate data for driving patterns.
He said motorists can potentially be stopped after AI systems determine that their behavior is “suspicious.”
The rapid expansion of such capabilities has fueled questions about how far government surveillance should extend when Americans have not been accused of committing any crime.
Flock Pushes Back as Cities Walk Away
Flock maintains that the wave of cancellations does not reflect the company’s broader growth.
“So far in 2026, new city partnerships have outpaced nonrenewals by approximately 10 to one,” company spokesperson Courtney Terlecki said.
“That does not mean every community will make the same decision, and we understand that public safety technology deserves thoughtful public discussion and community engagement.”
The company has also changed its data-retention policies amid the growing scrutiny.
Flock says its terms prohibit customers from using its technology to “mislead, harass, stalk, or otherwise impose upon or violate the legal rights of another person.”
But those safeguards have not stopped communities from reconsidering whether the technology should be deployed in the first place.
The issue is increasingly cutting across traditional political lines, with civil-liberties advocates joining conservatives concerned about government overreach in questioning whether a vast network capable of recording and analyzing Americans’ movements has gone too far.
With 90 local governments walking away from Flock in a single month, four times July’s total, that debate is no longer theoretical.
Cities across America are beginning to decide that the surveillance cameras simply are not worth the risk.

At Least 100 Girls Under 12 Flagged as Forced-Marriage Victims in Britain, 27 Were Under Five
Blogger Comment: Just read what the British government spokesperson states about this and you will not believe it and a veiled comment that condones it…we are being taken over by forces that do not comply with English morals or normal standards towards children that we have always upheld…staggering to say the very least, but at least you know which side of the argument our politicians are and it certainly is not the caring side of humanity for sure…
.
At least 100 girls aged 11 or younger were flagged as suspected victims of forced marriage in Britain over a five-year period, including 27 children who were under the age of five, according to government data obtained through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.
The disturbing figures cover referrals made to the British government’s Forced Marriage Unit between 2021 and 2025 and include cases reported by relatives, friends, police officers, teachers, and social services.
Campaigners warn that the official figures may represent only a fraction of the true scale of the problem because many cases are never reported to authorities.
The revelations are fueling renewed scrutiny of Britain’s failure to eradicate forced marriage and a political fight over the role that years of mass immigration have played in importing cultural practices fundamentally incompatible with Western values.
27 Suspected Victims Were Under Five
The Forced Marriage Unit received information concerning at least 100 girls aged 11 or younger who were believed to have been forced into marriage between 2021 and 2025, according to figures disclosed by the Home Office.
Twenty-seven of the children were under five.
Forced-marriage campaigner Dame Jasvinder Sanghera, who fled a forced marriage herself at 14, described the ages involved as “deeply disturbing.”
Sanghera has previously warned that some children can be promised to future husbands from birth.
The official statistics capture cases that came to the attention of authorities.
They cannot account for children whose circumstances were never reported.
RAIR Foundation argues that the figures represent “just the tip of the iceberg” and ties the problem directly to mass migration and Islamic forced-marriage practices.
The British government, however, maintains that forced marriage crosses religious and cultural boundaries.
A government official said forced marriage is “not a problem specific to one country, religion or culture; there is no archetypal victim or perpetrator, and no two cases are the same.”
“Sleepwalking Through This Nightmare”
The issue has provoked outrage among human rights campaigners and decent-minded British citizens.
During an appearance on GB News, journalist Khadija Khan warned that the figure of 40% of forced marriage cases in the UK involving children is “likely just the tip of the iceberg.”
“We can no longer pretend that we have been sleepwalking through this nightmare,” Khan asserted.
WATCH:
In a separate GB News interview, Dr. Taj Hargey, the founder of the Oxford Institute for British Islam, argued that the British public is being prevented from demanding action due to the nation’s so-called “anti-hate” laws.
Such crimes should be “condemned without fear of upsetting anyone,” he told GB News.
“This should be totally condemned by the Muslim society up and down the UK,” Hargey added.
WATCH:
Reform UK Links Rise to Mass Immigration
Reform UK Home Affairs spokesman Zia Yusuf pointed directly to Britain’s unprecedented immigration levels when addressing the increase in forced-marriage cases.
“This sudden rise in forced marriages tracks almost perfectly with the Boriswave, which saw the Tories import four million new people into the U.K.,” Yusuf said.
The “Boriswave” refers to the massive increase in legal immigration following post-Brexit reforms introduced under former Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s Conservative government.
RAIR Foundation similarly argued that the rise cannot be separated from Britain’s mass-migration policies.
Political commentator Collin Rugg warned that fear of being branded racist could also discourage people from reporting suspected abuse.
“U.K. residents are worried about reporting child marriages for fear of being accused of ‘racism,’ as children under 5 are reportedly being forced into marriage,” Rugg said.
“Some U.K. leaders are concerned that five-year-olds will return from school break married or engaged,” Rugg continued.
“According to Home Office data, forced marriages in the U.K. are on the rise.
“Some children have been promised to older men from birth, according to charity founder Dame Jasvinder Sanghera.”
Forced Marriage Is a Crime in Britain
Forcing someone into marriage is illegal in the United Kingdom, with additional protections applying to children.
Yet the latest government figures show authorities are still encountering suspected victims at extraordinarily young ages.
UNICEF data shows that South Asia contains some of the world’s largest populations of child brides, with India, Bangladesh, and Pakistan among the countries accounting for enormous numbers of cases. Sub-Saharan Africa also has a significant prevalence of child marriage.
The newly disclosed British figures do not establish the religion, ethnicity, immigration status, or national origin of each of the 100 suspected victims.
What they do establish is alarming enough: British authorities received forced-marriage referrals involving at least 100 girls who had not even reached their 12th birthdays in just five years.
Twenty-seven were not even five years old.
And because those numbers include only cases that reached the attention of the Forced Marriage Unit, campaigners warn the true number of vulnerable children caught in the practice could be considerably higher.

Canadian Government Euthanizes ‘Young and Healthy’ 26-Year-Old
Blogger Comment: Just another illegal killing of a Canadian citizen…but legal through the highly manipulated loosely drafted legislation MAiD State Euthanasia system in Canada, where tens of thousands have died that were NOT terminally ill…and this is what happens when you pass legislation with so may loop holes that anyone can be euthanized…the UK are on the very same path now and it will go the same way if state euthanasia is allowed in becoming Law…indeed western nations have seen an absolute skyrocketing increase in assisted state euthanasia since 2021 when the Covid-19 mRNA experimental injections were given to people under emergency protocols and laws, and especially in the West where they were rich enough so that they could fund the experimental injections, which have now been conclusively confirmed are GENE Therapies, not virus vaccines at all…unfortunately also, many eminent physicians and medical researchers have now come out and determined that the lethal drug does not kill the patient straight away although they may appear to be dead, but suffer terribly for up to 48 hours on average through a very slow death as the human body shuts down through an equivalent agony of drowning slowly…the authorities will not tell you this of course…
.
The death certificate of a 26-year-old man who was euthanized by the Canadian government, despite being described by his doctor as “young and healthy,” has been released, revealing disturbing details about his final hours.
Ontario resident Kiano Vafaeian died under Canada’s taxpayer-funded Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) program on December 30, 2025.
A copy of Vafaeian’s death certificate has now been obtained by author and anti-euthanasia activist Kelsi Sheren, revealing alarming new details about his “assisted suicide.”
Documents concerning Vafaeian’s death show that drugs used in the procedure were obtained through a Vancouver pharmacy before the euthanasia was carried out at a funeral home.
His mother, Margaret Marsilla, has fiercely opposed the decision to approve her son for MAiD.
After his death, Marsilla accused the doctor who approved the procedure of finding a “loophole” that allowed her son to be euthanized.
That doctor was prominent Canadian MAiD practitioner Dr. Ellen Wiebe.
Vafaeian traveled across the country to Vancouver, where Wiebe administered the lethal procedure.
Death Certificate Lists ‘MAiD’ as Cause of Death
Wiebe is a member of the Clinicians’ Advisory Council for the euthanasia advocacy organization Dying with Dignity Canada and a professor at the University of British Columbia.
She has become one of Canada’s most prominent practitioners of MAiD.
Right to Life UK reported in 2023 that Wiebe had administered MAiD to more than 400 patients.
In footage obtained by The New Atlantis, Wiebe described performing euthanasia as “the most rewarding work we’ve ever done.”
Before his death in December, Vafaeian filled several prescriptions at Macdonald’s Prescriptions Ltd. in Vancouver.
The drugs were subsequently used during his assisted death.
The prescriptions reportedly included “Midazolam injection, Propofol injection, Rocuronium bromide injection, Bupivacaine injection, a line item labeled ‘1 MAID’.”
The medications have conventional medical purposes but can be combined as part of Canada’s MAiD protocol.
“Midazolam is used to sedate,” Sheren explained.
“Propofol induces deep anesthesia.
“Rocuronium causes paralysis and respiratory arrest.
“Bupivacaine may be used in certain protocols.”
Vafaeian reportedly paid hundreds of dollars for the medications.
The documents therefore offer a stark look at the mechanics of Canada’s euthanasia system, where drugs involved in assisted deaths can be prescribed and dispensed through the pharmaceutical system.
But another detail revealed by the records is even more striking.
Vafaeian did not die in a hospital or Wiebe’s medical office.
He was euthanized at Koru Cremation, a funeral home in Vancouver.
He reportedly paid approximately $300 to $495 to use the facility.
His death certificate lists the cause of death simply as “MAiD.”
It also records underlying conditions including blindness and diabetes.
Mother Had Previously Fought to Keep Son Alive
Vafaeian’s case had already attracted national attention years before his death.
In 2022, when he was just 23 years old, Vafaeian sought to end his life through MAiD.
At the time, he had diabetes and had lost sight in one eye.
According to reporting by the Free Press, the young man was struggling with his circumstances and had no job, girlfriend, or clear plans for his future.
Marsilla said her son was deeply unhappy.
She said losing his vision in one eye in April 2022 became a tipping point that led him to pursue euthanasia.
Vafaeian had been scheduled to undergo MAiD through Dr. Joshua Tepper, executive director of Toronto-based MAiDHouse.
However, the planned procedure was canceled following intense media attention surrounding the case.
Vafaeian survived for another three years.
By the end of 2025, however, he had found another path into Canada’s euthanasia system.
He traveled from Ontario to British Columbia, where Wiebe ultimately administered MAiD.
His mother has said her son was approved on grounds involving “mental illness.”
The newly released death certificate now provides a chilling final record of what followed.
A 26-year-old man crossed Canada, obtained the drugs used in his assisted death through a pharmacy, and was euthanized by a taxpayer-funded doctor inside a funeral home.
And on the government document recording how his life ended, the cause of death is written plainly:
“MAiD.”

Central Bank Group Warns AI Investment Boom Could Trigger Global Market Crash and Recession
Blogger Comment: The writing is starting to be on the wall in bigger letters by the week and where Ai the Globalist’s trigger to start the largest Global collapse in history is starting to show its ugliest face and where all these Globalist puppet central bankers know it…indeed, as the Globalist’s ‘golden’ 2030 ever approaches, we shall see a continual collapse of our social and economic heritage together with ‘EVERYTHING’ that we own…on the orders of the Globalists of course who planned this ultimate assault on humanity and where our political leaders are undertaking their orders, as they all answer to them and NOT the PEOPLE who voted them into power…the EU’s central banker Christine Madeleine Odette Lagarde echoed the same threatening sentiments very recently…so we know that something big is on the horizon for all of us…
“European Central Bank Sounds Alarm: Global AI Crash Is Looming” – https://world-freedom.co.uk/2026/09/06/european-central-bank-sounds-alarm-global-ai-crash-is-looming/
Blogger Comment: Ai is the greatest distraction and destructive force ever to fall on Humanity and where it is the start mechanism of the great collapse in order to hold the world to ransomed by the Globalists…for the writing is on the wall now to what is starting and on the horizon for humanity and its both ultra-evil and ultra-destructive…it is the precursor to the social and economic destruction of the fabric of western civilization prior to the Globalist’s 2030 One World Government (OWG) where they will take no prisoners and take control of the world with the people’s blessing…because the Globalist will say that they will save us from the destruction that they created…built upon the greatest lie in history to control humanity and install human slavery forever with the control and surveillance technology that has now been put in place over the last 35 years, with more to follow…for even the BIS is controlled by the colective Globalists…
,
The Bank for International Settlements (BIS) warned that the massive surge in artificial intelligence investment could end in a stock market crash and recession if the technology fails to deliver returns large enough to justify the spending.
The Switzerland-based institution, which serves as a coordinating body for central banks around the world, issued the warning in its annual report.
The BIS said intense competition among leading AI companies may have driven investment to excessive levels.
That could leave the sector vulnerable if revenue and productivity gains fall short of expectations.
“The race to capture market share may have led to overinvestment,” BIS General Manager Pablo Hernández de Cos said.
“This could leave the sector more vulnerable if AI underdelivers, possibly bringing the current investment boom to an abrupt end,” he added.
AI Spending Expected to Top $1 Trillion
The warning comes as the world’s largest technology companies pour enormous sums into AI infrastructure.
The five largest hyperscalers are expected to spend more than $1 trillion on AI-related capital expenditures in 2025 and 2026, according to The Wall Street Journal.
Those investments include data centers, chips, cloud infrastructure, power systems, and other hardware needed to train and run advanced AI models.
The BIS compared the current AI spending surge to previous technology booms that ended in severe downturns.
The report cited canal construction in the 1830s, British railways in the 1840s, electrification in the late 1920s, and the dot-com boom of the late 1990s.
Each of those investment manias eventually reversed and triggered broader economic damage.
The BIS warned that a major correction in AI-linked stocks could have especially serious consequences today.
Households now have greater exposure to equities relative to total wealth and income than in past decades.
That means a sharp drop in valuations could hit consumer spending harder than previous market downturns of similar size.
Debt-Fueled AI Boom Raises New Risks
The report also raised concerns about how the AI boom is being financed.
Early AI development was largely funded internally by major technology companies.
However, investment plans have grown so large that companies are increasingly relying on debt and complex financing structures.
The BIS warned about so-called circular financing arrangements that combine equity, debt, and supplier-client contracts.
Such deals can involve chipmakers and hyperscalers investing in AI labs that then commit to long-term purchases of chips or computing power.
The terms of those arrangements are often poorly disclosed, the BIS said.
The report warned that the same asset could potentially be pledged multiple times, creating hidden risks across the system.
If hyperscalers slow their capital spending, companies across the AI supply chain could struggle to service their debt, the BIS warned.
That could turn a slowdown in AI investment into a broader financial problem.
Central Banks Urged to Watch Carefully
Hernández de Cos declined to prescribe a specific central bank response to the AI investment surge.
According to CNBC, he indicated that any attempt to dictate a firm policy course at this stage would be ill-advised.
The BIS warning adds to growing concern that Wall Street’s AI enthusiasm may be running ahead of the technology’s near-term economic value.
Supporters argue that AI will transform productivity, automate major parts of the economy, and justify the enormous infrastructure spending now underway.
Skeptics warn that the sector is being priced for perfection before companies have proven that AI can generate profits at the scale investors expect.
The BIS is not saying the AI boom will necessarily collapse.
But BIS is warning that if the spending surge fails to produce the promised returns, the fallout may not stay contained inside Silicon Valley.
It could spill into markets, household wealth, corporate debt, and the wider economy.

European Central Bank Sounds Alarm: Global AI Crash Is Looming
Blogger Comment: Although I do not TRUST this woman for even one second, but where there is some truth in what she paints, but again, not for the reasons she gives, as she is a top Globalist WEF puppet and has been for years and why she got the jobs that she did like the job she does now…for the Globalist have brought in Ai because that it is the destructive construct to that will start the global breakdown which will lead to the World’s greatest recession with all the $multi-trillions involved by the end of next year…for that will usher in the Globalist’s 2030 One World Government (OWG) offering and saying that they will save you…but where they started the whole final process of destroying the West and them controlling it…that’s the WEF plan anyway, so take it or leave it…and what you believe…
.
The European Central Bank (ECB) is warning that the artificial intelligence (AI) investment boom is heading for a brutal market correction with unprecedented global consequences.
In a new analysis published this week and first reported by Reuters, ECB economists warned that soaring AI valuations are unlikely to continue indefinitely and that a pullback could hammer markets far beyond Silicon Valley.
The report examined whether the AI boom is being driven by rational expectations about a transformational technology or by investors getting swept up in hype.
Either way, the conclusion was the same: the boom ends in a correction.
AI Valuations Are Built on Extreme Expectations
The ECB analysis outlined what it called the “rational view,” under which investors are placing enormous bets on AI because the potential upside is so large.
The authors pointed to the explosive rise of companies such as Nvidia, which surged to a $5 trillion valuation last year amid expectations that AI could deliver a massive leap in productivity.
“In the worst case in such a scenario, investors lose their investment,” the authors wrote.
“But in the best case, the gains are large and genuinely hard to bound.
“This ‘option value’ increases the stock valuations of early adopters, causing their price-to-earnings ratios to rise sharply.”
In other words, investors are paying enormous premiums today for the chance that AI eventually delivers something revolutionary.
ECB Warns Investors May Be Drunk on AI Hype
The second explanation is far more concerning.
Under what the authors called the “behavioral view,” investors have become “overconfident” and “overoptimistic,” chasing AI valuations because everyone else is doing the same.
That kind of speculative frenzy can end violently once confidence breaks.
When enthusiasm for a new technology fades, the authors warned, market losses can become swift and severe.
The current AI boom may involve both dynamics at once: genuine technological potential combined with runaway speculation.
But the ECB said both scenarios point toward the same eventual outcome.
The two views “imply a boom followed by a correction, or a pullback from wherever valuations have risen, at some point in the future,” the authors wrote.
Europe Could Get Dragged Down with Wall Street
The biggest warning in the report concerns what happens after the correction begins.
The ECB economists said the initial trigger would likely come from U.S. markets, but the fallout would spread rapidly into Europe because European investors are heavily exposed to American technology stocks.
European “households, insurers and pension funds have significant exposures through global index trackers,” the analysis states.
That means a major selloff in U.S. AI stocks would immediately hit European retirement funds, insurers and household investments.
And the damage would not stop with stock prices.
“The effects of a US correction could extend beyond financial markets to euro area sentiment, financing conditions and hiring,” the experts wrote.
“A US AI fallout would not remain a US problem.”
AI Bubble Risks Are Becoming Harder to Ignore
The warning comes as the AI industry continues pouring staggering sums into chips, data centers and infrastructure while investors price in enormous future profits.
The problem is that much of the market’s value still depends on AI eventually delivering productivity gains large enough to justify those investments.
If that promise falls short, valuations built on years of hype could unravel quickly.
The ECB is now warning that such a correction would not simply wipe billions from Silicon Valley balance sheets.
It could hit pensions, investment funds, hiring and credit conditions across Europe, turning an American AI bubble into a global financial shock.

Unelected EU Leaders Move to Seize Private Savings to Fund Globalist Goals
Blogger Comment: I believe that Iceland made a great escape and made a good decision in not joining the EU…recently…and they will be better off out of the EU if the confiscation of the people’s savings is anything to go by…and the UK under the government and control of the Labour Party want us to go back into this den of iniquity…they must be mad, but of course they are controlled by the Globalists since Bliar reclaimed the country’s political mantel in 1999…with his wrecking ball that has never ceased from the Labour Party when they are in power and the Conservatives did the same…but of course all their leaders are Globalist puppets…and all fully joined up members of the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos…
.
European Union bureaucrats are setting their sights on seizing control of a staggering $10 trillion in private household savings as Brussels scrambles to finance its sprawling climate, defense, and globalist agenda.
The unelected European Commission is pushing ahead with its so-called “Savings and Investments Union,” a scheme designed to redirect vast sums currently sitting in Europeans’ bank accounts toward investments favored by the bloc.
EU officials openly acknowledge that approximately “€10 trillion in household savings” is currently held in bank deposits rather than European capital markets.
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has now declared that Brussels wants to take control of these funds to “put these savings to work.”
In a speech before business elites in France, von der Leyen called on fellow eurocrats to “unlock” the general public’s savings and “reinvest” the funds in the globalist agenda.
While the current proposal does not yet authorize the EU to simply confiscate citizens’ bank balances, the push has ignited fears that the move will inevitably lead to Brussels seizing the general public’s savings.
The calls come as EU governments struggle under mounting debt and enormous spending commitments.
Brussels Targets Europeans’ Private Wealth
The European Commission says Europe requires hundreds of billions of euros in additional investment every year to pursue its strategic objectives.
According to the Commission, the bloc faces massive funding demands from climate policies, technological development, geopolitical upheaval, and increased defense spending.
The Draghi report estimates that Europe needs an additional €750 billion to €800 billion every year by 2030.
Rather than relying exclusively on government spending or traditional bank financing, Brussels wants to channel more private capital into those priorities.
The European Council estimates that approximately €10 trillion of household savings is currently sitting in low-yield bank deposits.
“This mismatch prevents savings from being used effectively to support business investments and the broader real economy,” the Council states.
Plans under consideration include tax incentives, investment accounts, changes to securitization rules, regulatory reforms, and increasingly integrated financial supervision.
The objective is clear: persuade Europeans to move enormous amounts of privately held money out of ordinary bank deposits and into capital markets aligned with Brussels’ investment priorities.
Von der Leyen, the EU’s unelected leader, spelled out that ambition while addressing French business leaders in Paris on August 27.
“€10 trillion of household savings is currently sitting in bank deposits, and a significant part of European savings is invested outside our continent,” von der Leyen said.
“Europe must now put these savings to work for its companies, and that is the goal of the Savings and Investment Union.”
“We have put proposals on the table on securitisation, bank and insurance investments, the integration of our markets and their supervision.”
“Together, they can unlock up to €470 billion in additional investment.”
WATCH:
EU Needs Hundreds of Billions Every Year
Brussels’ hunt for private capital comes as European governments struggle under enormous debt burdens while simultaneously pursuing hugely expensive climate, industrial, infrastructure, digital, and defense policies.
The Draghi report estimates that the EU needs another €750 billion to €800 billion annually to meet those ambitions.
That amounts to approximately 4.4% to 4.7% of Europe’s annual GDP.
Meanwhile, public debt reached 82.9% of EU GDP during the first quarter of 2026 and 88.9% across the eurozone.
Some of Europe’s largest economies are carrying even greater burdens.
France’s debt stood at 117.6% of GDP, while Italy reached 138.9% and Greece 143.5%.
Against that backdrop, the enormous pool of private wealth sitting in Europeans’ bank accounts has become increasingly attractive to Brussels.
The European Commission insists the Savings and Investments Union would benefit citizens and businesses by creating deeper capital markets and potentially generating higher returns for savers.
But the initiative also gives EU policymakers an obvious route toward mobilizing private wealth when governments cannot finance Brussels’ ambitions through public spending alone.
‘More Integration, More Common Supervision’
The project is not entirely new.
The Savings and Investments Union is effectively the successor to the Capital Markets Union launched in 2015.
European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde acknowledged in 2024 that dozens of regulatory and non-legislative initiatives had already been proposed as part of that earlier effort.
Yet European officials concluded that the project had failed to produce the deep, integrated capital markets they wanted.
Brussels’ answer is now another push toward deeper financial integration and common supervision.
The European Conservative noted that the revived initiative amounts to “more integration, more common supervision, and another regulatory package.”
The enormous financial ambitions are unfolding alongside a broader transformation of the global monetary system.
The Bank for International Settlements has been promoting the development of “tokenised unified ledgers” incorporating central bank money, commercial bank deposits, and government bonds.
“Tokenisation – the digital representation of assets on programmable platforms – integrates messaging, reconciliation and settlement into a single seamless operation, and can transform cross-border payments and securities markets, ushering in a new era for the financial system,” the BIS states.
The concept is separate from the EU’s Savings and Investments Union, but both developments highlight the accelerating effort by governments and financial institutions to reshape how private capital moves through increasingly integrated financial systems.
Central Banks Prepare for AI Financial Disruption
The transformation is not limited to Europe.
Global central bankers gathering at the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City’s Jackson Hole symposium recently confronted another emerging threat to the existing financial order: artificial intelligence.
Princeton University economist Markus Brunnermeier outlined scenarios in which AI-powered trading systems could operate so rapidly that central banks might be forced to fundamentally change how monetary policy is communicated and implemented.
Among the possibilities discussed were central banks becoming deliberately less predictable to prevent AI systems from gaming monetary policy and governments intervening more directly in credit markets to counter machine-driven manipulation.
Taken together, the developments point toward an increasingly centralized and technologically sophisticated financial architecture.
For Europeans, however, the immediate issue is much simpler.
Brussels has identified an enormous pool of private wealth that it believes isn’t being put to sufficient use.
That pool belongs to ordinary households.
And EU leaders have now openly declared that they want to put roughly €10 trillion of those savings “to work” advancing Europe’s investment priorities.
