a. George:

President Trump has appointed Dr. Ben Carson to be his National Faith Chairman to activate Christian voters to turn out and VOTE in November. In 2016, Dr. Carson was instrumental in convincing Christian leaders to get behind Trump.

b. Craig:

The cost of furnishing flats for asylum seekers cannot be released because the issue is too “sensitive”, a watchdog has ruled. John Edwards, the Information Commissioner, has ruled in favour of the Home Office, which refused to reveal the cost of furnishing a block of flats to be used by 346 asylum seekers in Farnborough, Hampshire.

c. Alexandra:

Sydney Mayor, Clover Moore, likes to talk about ‘more bike lanes’ but what she never mentions is that George Street is now one long line of homeless encampments down toward Broadway – or the dozens of drug addicts and mentally unstable people verbally abusing pedestrians all day.

d. George:

After receiving a massive wave of public pressure, California Governor Gavin Newsom has just VETOED AB 1840, the bill approved by the state legislature to give up to $150,000 to illegal immigrants to buy homes Even a broken clock is right twice a day In his veto, Newsom said, “Given the finite funding available for CalHFA programs, expanding program eligibility must be carefully considered within the broader context of the annual state budget to ensure we manage our resources effectively. For this reason, I am unable to sign this bill.”

e. Mercedes’ bro Mike:

Feb 10, 2023: Just ONE MONTH into Lula’s term, President Biden and President Lula met in Washington & SPECIFICALLY pledged the US government would “work together” with Brazil’s government to stamp out “disinformation.”

f. Chris R:

Just 3 days to go before Keir Starmer releases 2,000 criminals early from prison. We currently have over 10,000 foreign nationals in our prisons that could be deported.

g. Pavel D:

Last month I got interviewed by police for 4 days after arriving in Paris. I was told I may be personally responsible for other people’s illegal use of Telegram, because the French authorities didn’t receive responses from Telegram. This was surprising for several reasons: 1. Telegram has an official representative in the EU that accepts and replies to EU requests. Its email address has been publicly available for anyone in the EU who googles “Telegram EU address for law enforcement”. 2. The French authorities had numerous ways to reach me to request assistance. As a French citizen, I was a frequent guest at the French consulate in Dubai. A while ago, when asked, I personally helped them establish a hotline with Telegram to deal with the threat of terrorism in France. 3. If a country is unhappy with an internet service, the established practice is to start a legal action against the service itself. Using laws from the pre-smartphone era to charge a CEO with crimes committed by third parties on the platform he manages is a simplistic approach. Building technology is hard enough as it is. No innovator will ever build new tools if they know they can be personally held responsible for potential abuse of those tools.

(Sep 7, 1242) An occasional series:

a. “The U.S. military has been using green lasers over the Hawaiian islands since at least 2013.

Referred to as Topographical Mapping they are used for military and geological use to scan the Earth’s surface, atmosphere, and pollution.

In January, earlier this year, green lasers were suggested to have come from an orbiting Chinese satellite, mapping Pearl Harbour on reconnaissance––possibly for a military strike. 

However, the U.S. Army Corps announced a few months later that they would be conducting coastal surveys with green lasers––June 2023. 

These are from a range produced by Raytheon, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, and Boeing, who also make Direct Energy Weapons [DEWS].

Lockheed Martin delivered LANCE (Laser Advancements for Next-generation Compact Environments), a high-energy laser weapon, to the US Air Force, in June 2022.

In August 2022, they delivered HELIOS a high-energy laser weapon system to the U.S. Navy.

b. Ben Bergquam Reports from Darién Gap That US is Funding Processing Centers in South America and Flying Illegals into America Before They Reach The Border.

c. Police said when Thomas Kingston’s death was announced earlier this week that there was nothing suspicious about it. (It was just) “Catastrophic head injury”.

d. “Where’s S Nonban’s EXCLUSIVE Interview With Jeppree Epbeen？”

e. Despite a much-heralded and historic pledge signed by all 43 police constables in England and Wales in 2022 to have officers personally visit the scene of all home burglaries, there has been a decline in the overall solve rate and 48 per cent of all neighbourhoods have seen zero burglaries solved over the previous three years, the Daily Telegraph reports.

f. Jan 27, 2022, Victoria Nuland: “If Russia invades Ukraine, one way or another, Nord Stream 2 will not move forward.”

g. RFKJ: I asked him about how he made his money. I knew he was the money manager for Leslie Wexner. How did you go from a math teacher at Dalton School to that… He said some Chinese people had approached him, who had been taking advantage of American grifters and he had succeeded in doing it. And that had launched his career.

(Sep 6, 0136) As this site is meant to be the workhorse of the complex, let’s get straight down to the nuts and bolts:

Privacy page

This is up now as a “child” of the Policies page in the main navbar above, meaning if you hover or push “Policies”, it will also show Privacy immediately below that in a light grey. It essentially warns readers that WordPress cookies are used … but is stated in more convoluted language than this. Readers then decide if they wish to read the sites.

The nature of these four sites

This is not a debating forum, it’s a deep dive news aggregator, pointing in different directions, not always by url … it simply takes over the heavy lifting from UHC, nothing more than that. There are, as regulars know, other sites connected to “uhchq”, the short name for this site you’re on.

(i) uhchq just mentioned (maybe fancifully spoken as “er-ch’k”, who knows)

(ii) nowp, which is the reader drops page, accessed from the navbar above

(iii) uhc, former hq, semi-retired this morning, also found in navbar

(iv) jstack, former hq, semi-retired, hosts occasional posts in longer form, navbar too.

The people found at this complex

Readers … that’s it … people who have stumbled upon, have browsed, some include us in their regular reads, some have been here a long time now, a few drop off articles, links, posts … we are, essentially, antiWoke, much more of the 80% who can’t abide all this rubbish floating about in public affairs.

There’s no “membership”, no “registering”, no “subscribing”, no “like” button I know of, except the one substack imposes … we’re not looking at traffic … the less the better, it’s cosier, more “clubbable” … but not officially. If you stick around, you’re most welcome.

No money involved. We pay nothing except time and effort, we accept nothing but that. It costs a bit to run this complex but that’s not your concern, no naughty funder backs these sites.

A possible characterisation

Reader Chuckles, a few years back, saw us a bit this way:

I developed the landlord-patrons idea a bit more in that the lighthouse is attached to a tavern, with outhouses including other bars, coffee shop, stables, carpark, chapel for the faithful, situated on a rocky promontory jutting out into the storm-tossed sea … part of the passing traffic, yet still rooted to the land:

Imagery can only be taken so far I suppose and it doesn’t bear too much scrutiny but that’s how the landlord sees the two nourishing obscurity and two unherdable cats sites … both names evoke an unfussed ethos. The main two sites, the workhorses, are uhchq and nowp … I spend about equal time at both.

Hope you’ll enjoy what’s on offer, that you’ll make use of it.
