24 Story West London Apartment Building Engulfed In Flames – 200 Firefighters On Scene

Firefighters battled to rescue residents trapped in a gigantic inferno engulfing the 24 story Grenfell apartment tower in London. Two hundred firefighters were dispatched to the fire which broke out in the early hours of Wednesday morning and rapidly spread throughout the building deemed a fire hazard for years.

“Firefighters wearing breathing apparatus are working extremely hard in very difficult conditions to tackle this fire. This is a large and very serious incident and we have deployed numerous resources and specialist appliances.” –Asst. Commissioner Dan Daily

We're being moved away from the scene as the fire now covers other side of the building and people are still trapped. #grenfelltower #london

Residents could be seen from windows waving blankets and calling for help, including a woman with a child.

“There was a woman with a child. I saw her waving maybe 30mins ago,” said a man who asked not to be named. “She said I’ve got a child … I saw them spraying her window.”

Hadil Alamily told the Guardian that she saw “someone jump on fire from the top floor”. She had seen the man flashing a light in an SOS pattern. “He was screaming help, help, help but no one helped. He dashed a mattress out of the window. He was literally on fire and jumped.” –The Guardian

People could be seen flickering their lights as a call for help.

For several weeks, Chinese media has been reporting that the Chairman of Chinese M&A monster Anabang Insurance, Wu Xiaohui, has been detained and is unable to leave the country. While Anabang initially denied the charge, the company issued a statement saying that Wu is ‘unable to perform his duties‘ for personal reasons, and Caijing Magazine reported late Tuesday on it’s website that Wu was physically detained by Chinese authorities on June 9th, citing unidentified sources.

The report, which said it wasn’t clear whether Wu was assisting with a government investigation, was later deleted from the magazine’s website. Caijing didn’t immediately answer calls and emails requesting comment before regular business hours in Beijing.

A person familiar with the matter told the South China Morning Post that Wu had been “assisting relevant investigations” and previously had always returned to his office or home after a few hours of questioning. Wu hasn’t returned since he was taken away at the end of last week, the person said. –Bloomberg

Anabang, which had been on a ‘acquisition spree’ was recently in the news as a suitor for Jared Kushner’s 666 Fifth Avenue property until the deal fell apart in March.

Anbang drew worldwide attention in 2014, as it snapped up real estate and financial-services companies in Asia, the U.S. and Europe, often at large premiums. In October that year it agreed to buy the landmark Waldorf Astoria in New York for $1.95 billion, a record for a single American hotel, and later closed the property while it converts most of the rooms to luxury condominiums.

Wu, who married the granddaughter of reform leader Deng Xiaoping, doesn’t speak English and often travels with translators. The vast majority of Anbang is collectively owned by relatives of Wu or his wife, Zhuo Ran, the New York Times has reported.

I guess this is what happens when you forget to pay your membership dues in China?

JP Morgan has pulled advertisements from NBC’s Sunday Night With Megyn Kelly, after the network uploaded a teaser of an upcoming interview with Infowars host Alex Jones scheduled to run on Father’s Day. The segment features Jones defending his position that there are enough inconsistencies with the official story of the 2012 massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary to warrant further investigation.

Kelly’s interview comes on the heels of recent attacks on alternative news – including Mike Cernovich, Jack Posobiec, and most recently the Gateway Pundit.

Jones hits back

In response to the promo video, Jones said that Megyn Kelly had lied to him about the purpose of the interview.

They were here from 9:30 in the morning to almost 11 at night. And Megyn Kelly lied to me several weeks before she came here, and she said that the interview was not going to be about Sandy Hook and the mass shooting there, and it was not going to be about pizzagate – these other issues that the media always obsesses on and misrepresents what I’ve said and what I’ve done.

She said, “oh, we might mention those but it’s really just a profile on you.”

The Infowars host then remembered all the strange and ‘lawyery’ questions Kelly asked throughout the interview…

She’s a lawyer. It was a total cross-examination… And when I said that I believe children died at Sandy Hook, as I’ve said for years, she kept coming back with answers saying “you believe nobody died! You believe Anderson Cooper was involved!” and I said “NO! My listeners questioned it, I had debates with both sides, and I played devil’s advocate.”

Then Jones says ‘it all clicked today’ – that all of the Sandy Hook questions Megyn Kelly had been asking, along with questions about fatherhood, made Alex suspect that ‘Lawyer’ Megyn is crafting an emotional hit piece in advance of the interview’s airing on Father’s Day. This led Alex to implore NBC to shelf the interview.

I agree with the families of the victims of Sandy hook – the Alex Jones profile interview with Megyn Kelly does not need to air. It needs to be shelved. And it needs to not be aired on Father’s Day. It’s not appropriate, and it misrepresents what I said, and I told them that I had a final statement last year.

Jones remains skeptical about Sandy Hook

In a 20 minute ‘Final Statement on Sandy Hook’ in November of 2016, Jones lays out his evidence which he says calls into question the official report in the Sandy Hook massacre.

“All I know is the official story on Sandy Hook has more holes in it than Swiss cheese.” -Alex Jones

Among his questions:

• Why does the Sandy Hook elementary school website have zero traffic for four years?
• Why were there several reports of other shooters dressed in camouflage who fled into the woods – one of whom police allegedly detained?
• Why were port-o-potties, sandwiches, fruit, drinks, and chips bought and set up for people at the crime scene to eat inside the school?
• Sandy Hook father Robbie Parker ‘getting into character‘
• Why didn’t they let paramedics and EMTs into the building after 27 children were declared dead in 8 minutes?
• Why was Adam Lanza’s home burned down by the bank?

In closing, Jones says:

My heart goes out to all parents that have lost children. And so, if children were lost in Sandy Hook, my heart goes out to each and everyone of those parents, and the people that say they’re parents that I see on the news. -Alex Jones

More repercussions for Kelly

In addition to JP Morgan pulling it’s advertising, an anti-2nd amendment group has disinvited Kelly to a June 14th event she was scheduled to emcee over the Jones interview.

This decision was spurred by NBC’s planned broadcast of Kelly’s interview with conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, who believes the tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, CT, was a hoax. –Sandy Hook Promise

Don’t panic folks, I’m sure this is all part of the show…

Ann Coulter went on Sean Hannity’s radio show Monday to discuss Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ upcoming testimony tomorrow in front of the Senate Intel Committee investigating Russian interference in the 2016 election.

Coulter said Sessions needs to “come out swinging” – defending his meetings with the Russian Ambassador, while making the case for dissolving the FBI’s Special Counsel investigation headed by former FBI head Robert Mueller – as it’s almost entirely based on now disproven allegations of obstruction and political revenge by President Trump which in Coulter’s words have “evaporated.”

I’m depressed because Republicans are just instinctive losers. We’re going to see a replay of Donald Rumsfeld apologizing for Abu Ghraib – well that was the end of Donald Rumsfeld. That. Was. The. End. Do not apologize Republicans. Jeff Sessions needs to come out swinging and say ‘that was nonsense, I was trying to be nice – but I’m not recusing myself and I’m firing Mueller.’

Coulter then puts the whole ‘met with the Russian diplomat’ thing in context…

Coulter: Why did Jeff Sessions recuse himself Because he met wit the Russian Ambassador which every other senator has done? His job at the time – let’s play this back, he wasn’t Vice President, he wasn’t Steven Miller writing the speeches. He wasn’t even Roger Stone for Pete’s sake. His job was United States Senator.

Yes, he endorsed Donald Trump and introduced him at a few AL rallies. As his full time job, United States Senator, he met with the Russian Ambassador – as did a dozen democrats! That’s what you do, as you know and have probably surely talked about. Claire McKaskill was tweeting out about her meeting with the Russian Ambassador. Dianne Feinstein – there are pictures of them all meeting with the Russian Ambassador. There is nothing improper about Jeff Sessions meeting with the Russian ambassador – and on that, he recuses himself and they demand a special counsel on the false claim – which Comey allowed to sit out there, that Donald Trump himself was personally under investigation.

Jared Kushner is the only reason to continue investigating.

Coulter says that of all the people currently working in the White House, there’s nobody whose actions or connections justify the special counsel aside from Jared Kushner…

Coulter: The only one who’s a the White House is the President’s son in law. If he [Jared Kushner] leaves, there’s no basis for an independent counsel.

Lying MSM

Hannity: Sessions is gonna go in there tomorrow. And Sessions did his job as Senator, and the media is going to go insane and I assume the networks are going to cover this. I’ve never seen such outright lying to the American people by the press in my life, and I’m not sure what the answer is to get them to stop and maybe for a second, you know, just try to stand true to their mission of objectivity a little bit.

Coulter: Sessions has got to say the entire point of having an independent counsel has evaporated with James Comey’s eventual, reluctant admission that Trump is not under investigation – so he’s not recusing himself, he’s firing Muller…  …the only possible downside is that the media will be hysterical! Will anyone notice the difference? They’ve been calling for his impeachment before he was sworn in!

Sean Hannity then confidently tells Coulter that Trump was bluffing about the tapes

Coulter:  On Friday on Lawrence O’Donnell they had an entire segment on “what if Trump destroyed the tapes?” So we’re already in never-never land on what if’s, and we must impeach…

Hannity: Ann, I can assure you – there are no tapes. That was Trump saying “I may have ’em” to get in his head.

Coulter: It worked, it got Comey to tell the truth about a few major [things]… Trump himself wasn’t under investigation. The other part is the truth about what he said about Michael Flynn. I mean it’s so clear now even in Comey’s description of it…

Last Thursday, Congressman Dana Rohrabacher praised ISIS for conducting coordinated terrorist attacks in Iran’s capital city which left 17 civilians dead – then suggested that the United States should support the terrorist organization in their endeavors to bring regime change to Iran.

Rohrabacher: Maybe this is a Trump strategy of actually supporting one group against another considering that you have terrorist organizations.

Maybe it’s a good idea to have radical Muslim terrorists fighting each other?

Dr. Asher: Having coordinated the economic warfare plan against the Islamic State, I would not condone an attack by the Islamic State. I would be determined to destroy them.

Three days later, Iran says that’s exactly what’s happening…

Iran’s Fars news agency reported that Iran  possess documents claiming to prove that the United States provides “Direct” support to ISIS. According to deputy Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces – Major General Mostafa Izadi, Iran is “facing a proxy warfare in the region as a new trick by the arrogant powers against the Islamic Republic.”

As the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution (Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei) said, we possess documents and information showing the direct supports by the US imperialism for this highly disgusting stream (the ISIL) in the region which has destroyed the Islamic countries and created a wave of massacres and clashes –Fars

As ZeroHedge reports, Izadi’s statement echoed remarks made by Iranian politician Ali Larijani last Friday – who pointed a finger directly at the United States for last week’s terrorist attacks in Tehran. At a funeral ceremony for the victims, Larijani said “The United States has aligned itself with the ISIL in the region,”

Erdogan claimed US support for ISIS 6 months ago

In December 2016, Turkish President Erdogan said “he has evidence that the US supported terrorists in Syria, including ISIS.”

They were accusing us of supporting Daesh [Islamic State],” he told a press conference, according to Reuters.

“Now they give support to terrorist groups including Daesh, YPG, PYD. It’s very clear. We have confirmed evidence, with pictures, photos and videos. –Erdogan

For years, anyone saying US UK had backed IS terror was branded a 'conspiracy theorist'. Now, Erdogan says it's truehttps://t.co/qE9SFBkPoQ

— Charles Shoebridge (@ShoebridgeC) December 27, 2016

And in July of 2016, Julian Assange made a similar claim. Additionally – according to Wikileaks and the Podesta emails, Saudi Arabia and Qatar have been supporting ISIS as well.

Hillary Clinton email reveals she knew of Saudi & Qatar government funding for ISIL (ISIS) by August 2014 https://t.co/tlWxkEZ8FN pic.twitter.com/RmaFi9lQQP

Iran hasn’t said if or when they will release proof of US support for ISIS/ISIL. Better not be trolling…

In the meantime, perhaps US politicians would be wise not to cheerlead for support of one of the most brutal organizations on the planet. If the USA is in fact funding ISIS – that entire operation needs to be shut down and those responsible held to account.

Fake socialist and establishment shill Bernie Sanders, whose wife is under investigation for possible fraud, has finally found the courage to speak ill of the DNC – the organization which punched the Vermont senator’s Presidential ambitions directly in the scrotum when it conspired with the Clinton campaign to destroy him.

To cheer himself up, the ‘democratic socialist’ bought himself a $600,000 beach front house – his third residence, at a time when disclosures put his net worth somewhere between $500,000 and $600,000. The Senator then threw his support behind Hillary Clinton, the one person who without question utterly fucked him out of his chance to become President.

And while it appears Sanders hasn’t spoken out about Clinton – perhaps because of their ‘non-aggression’ pact – the Larry David doppelganger denounced the DNC at the People’s Summit.

The current model and the current strategy of the Democratic party is an absolute failure.

The Democrat party must finally understand which side it is on, and that cannot be the side of Wall St. or the fossil fuel industry or the drug companies.

What, condescending ivory tower liberals like Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer don’t understand the common voter? Shocking!

Shakespeare in the Park kicked off it’s summer season in NYC’s Central Park with Public Theater’s contemporary take on “Julius Caesar.” While the play has been in previews since May 23, the official open on Monday features President Trump as a fat, petulant tyrant who is, as you may have guessed, murdered in particularly bloody fashion.

The play was directed by Public Theater’s Oskar Eustis, and features House of Cards star Corey Stoll and stage actor John Douglas Thompson.

Caesar joins the growing list of anti-Trump artists who have invoked or condoned the President’s murder – including an ISIS-inspired Kathy Griffin and money-inspired rappers Snoop Dog, and Rick Ross – who are apparently huge fans of Mike ‘electric fence’ Pence, or are just so fucking stupid they haven’t thought that far.

I can only imagine the audience’s face during the stabbing scene…

NYT sponsorship and promotion

When they’re not normalizing pedophilia, the New York Times spends much of their time trying to destroy Donald Trump. And as Big Leage Politics’ Cassandra Fairbanks reported, the ‘failing’ outlet supports Public Theater.

“The Public Theater has cultivated successful ongoing partnerships with several leading corporations including Bank of America, Delta Air Lines, The New York Times, American Express, and others.”

Not only does the New York Times sponsor Public Theater, Julius Caesar happens to be the newspaper’s “Critic’s Pick,” and received a glowing review…

Hang on to your comb-over because the theatrical Trump storm is now approaching gale force.

Its depiction of a petulant, blondish Caesar in a blue suit, complete with gold bathtub and a pouty Slavic wife, takes onstage Trump-trolling to a startling new level.

Assassination as a casual topic…

This cavalier attitude towards assassinating Donald Trump is not new – and has been supported by social media giant Facebook (which the Philippines had to formally request take down terrorist-linked accounts):

And nothing, to the best of my knowledge, has been done about the death threats Trump received – including ones from individuals who have visited the White House and have CIA connections.

Attorney General Jeff Sessions is set to testify in front of the Senate Intelligence Committee on Tuesday to respond to accusations leveled at him by former FBI Director James Comey – though it is not clear whether or not it will be a public or a private testimony. Sessions had previously agreed to testify Tuesday on the Justice Department’s budget, however after Comey hinted last week that the Attorney General had more contact with Russia than previously disclosed, Tuesday’s testimony will take a different direction, while Sessions will send assistant AG Rod Rosenstein to testify on the budget.

In a letter Saturday, Sessions stated that it was important to address what Comey had said to the panel:

“In light of reports regarding Mr. Comey’s recent testimony before the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, it is important that I have an opportunity to address these matters in the appropriate forum. The Senate Intelligence Committee is the most appropriate forum for such matters, as it has been conducting an investigation and has access to relevant, classified information.

Therefore, I am pleased to accept the invitation to appear before members of that committee on June 13th.”

Since Comey allegedly perjured himself on the stand last week, the entire Trump legal apparatus has undoubtedly been hard at work planning their next moves. It goes without saying that Jeff Sessions’ decision to drop by on Tuesday is at minimum designed to respond to Comey’s implications – and may include more; up to and including MOAB’s dropped on Comey and the entire Russia investigation. Ready the popcorn…

Late last year, President Obama seized two Russian compounds in New York and Maryland, expelled 35 Russian diplomats, and issued economic sanctions in retaliation for still-unproven allegations of Russian hacking during the 2016 presidential election.

Days later, Russia warned of a ‘proportional response‘ to Obama’s ‘paranoia.’

Russian Foreign Ministry Commissioner Konstantin Dolgov said at the time “Any anti-Russian sanctions are futile and counter-productive”  Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov added that Russia has no alternative than to make a proportional response, adding in a call with reporters that Moscow “doubted the effectiveness of the measures as the current U.S. presidential administration was stepping down in three weeks” while Duma Foreign Affairs head Slutsky slammed U.S. sanctions as “signs of real paranoia.” -ZeroHedge

And six months later, Putin’s running out of patience…

Reuters reports that Russia may seize U.S. diplomatic property in Moscow if Washington doesn’t hand back the seized diplomatic compounds before July, according to Russian newspaper Kommersant.

Moscow wanted the compounds back before a possible meeting at the G20 in Germany in July between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Trump.

If that did not happen, the newspaper cited the sources as saying Russia could retaliate by seizing a U.S. diplomatic dacha, or country house, in Serebryany Bor in north-west Moscow and a U.S. diplomatic warehouse in Moscow.

It said that Russian authorities could also complicate life for Moscow’s Anglo-American school by altering its legal status.

Remember – the Russian hacking narrative is based on that Crowdstrike report…

The DNC hacking report used to justify the aforementioned hostilities against Russia was created by the google-funded Crowdstrike – a security firm founded by Russian expat and Clinton Foundation donor Dimitri Alperovitch. Of note, Alperovitch also sits on the very Anti-Russian Atlantic Council – which is funded by the US State Department, NATO, Latvia, Lithuania, and Ukranian Oligarch Victor Pinchuk, who apparently owns the Ukrainian gas company Joe Biden’s son is on the board of.

Is it true the DNC would not allow the FBI access to check server or other equipment after learning it was hacked? Can that be possible?

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 5, 2017

Notably, CrowdStrike has been discredited – and was forced to retract evidence used in a botched report on Russia hacking Ukranian military equipment.

CrowdStrike has retracted statements it used to buttress claims of Russian hacking https://t.co/8AZOvoQl0K

Given the above, perhaps it’s time to unwind some of Obama’s anti-Russia hostilities?
