German Power Plant Halted After It Runs Out Of Coal - ZubuBrothers
In the history of the world, German electricity prices have never been higher
… and if what just happened at the Steag Bergkamen-A electric plant is any indication, they are about to get a whole lot higher.
According to Bloomberg, the global energy crisis has forced a German electricity producer to halt a power plant after it ran out of coal.
Steag GmbH – which operates six large-scale hard coal plants in Germany with an installed capacity of more than 4,000 MW – closed its Bergkamen-A plant in the western part of the country this week due to shortages of hard coal, it said by email...

Study: There's no difference in COVID-19 viral load between vaccinated and unvaccinated; symptomatic or asymptomatic - TheBlaze
"A new study finds that there is no significant difference in COVID-19 viral load between vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals who test positive for infection, regardless of whether they have symptoms or not.
The pre-print study from UC Davis, which has not yet been peer-reviewed, suggests that when it comes to policy making on how to mitigate spread of COVID-19, vaccine status might not matter much for mask mandates or social distancing requirements. 
The reason is higher viral loads make the virus more transmissible, and it appears both vaccinated and unvaccinated people who catch the Delta variant of COVID-19 have high viral loads...Read all.

Supreme Court REJECTS NYC teachers' request
to stop Mayor Bill de Blasio's vaccine
mandate - meaning 14,800 school employees
could be out work Monday

"The Supreme Court has denied a challenge from New York City public school teachers to block Mayor Bill de Blasio's COVID-19 vaccine mandate from going into effect today. US Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor ruled in favor of the city Friday—allowing the mandate to go ahead and paving the way for up to 14,800 unvaccinated school employees to be out of work come Monday.(Snip)Sotomayor, who is the justice for the second circuit including New York, Connecticut and Vermont and so rules on emergency matters in the Big Apple, rejected the teachers' last-ditch effort to block the mandate without giving any explanation.

Comments:

It's right there in the US Constitution. If a politically favored corporation has a product to sell, it's perfectly acceptable to force people to use it, perhaps harming themselves in the process. Americans are merely commodities to be bought and sold, and most of us can't even hear the rattling of our chains as we hail our freedumbs."

Groups Warning of Imminent Global Supply Chain System Collapse

Groups Warning of Imminent Global Supply Chain System Collapse

"...That’s caused prices to soar, for everything in the supply chain which, of course, will be passed on to the consumers.

Pre-Covid, the cost of shipping a container from China to the US’s West Coast was roughly $1,300. Today, that cost has risen exponentially, with the cost of transporting one container being roughly $35,000...

Some have tried to turn to air freighters, and that’s overwhelmed that system and made everything more expensive there, as well.

“This has turned the economy upside down,” a logistics expert told the Daily Mail. Unions that represent shipping workers around the world are warning of a coming “global transport systems collapse.”

From Just the News:

“Global supply chains are beginning to buckle as two years’ worth of strain on transport workers take their toll,” they wrote in an open letter signed by the International Air Transport Association, the International Road Transport Union and the International Transport Workers’ Federation...

So, what’s Joe Biden doing in the face of something else that’s about to blow up on us all? He’s demonizing the unvaccinated and calling for more mandates and restrictions. He and other Democrats are imposing restrictions, which are causing more people to be fired...

It’s no wonder that now there’s also a crisis in consumer economic confidence.

This is a disaster about to blow up.

If you were trying to do-in the country, I’m not sure what you would do that the Biden team hasn’t been doing...Read all.

Sen. Joe Manchin resists own party, delivers possible death blow to Democrats' massive spending bill: 'Fiscal insanity' - TheBlaze

Manchin sounded the alarm that spending trillions would cause even more inflation that would hurt American families.

The Consumer Price Index climbed 5.3% in August from a year earlier. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell warned lawmakers this week that inflation will likely continue in the coming months.

"While I am hopeful that common ground can be found that would result in another historic investment in our nation, I cannot — and will not — support trillions in spending or an all or nothing approach that ignores the brutal fiscal reality our nation faces," Manchin said.

"Inflation in the 19 European countries that share the euro hit a 13-year high, challenging the European Central Bank’s (ECB) view that price pressures are largely benign and will soon fade.
...A surge in energy costs was behind the bulk of the inflationary pressure, with energy prices rising 17.4 percent over the year and 1.3 percent over the month in September.

LinkedIn censors US journalist on behalf of the Chinese Communist Party over 'prohibited' content, offers to 'help' her make her profile CCP-approved - TheBlaze

The journalist went even further to question how exactly her profile was flagged or, more precisely, who originally flagged it — LinkedIn or the Chinese government?

Both are troubling, she argued. If the former, it means the U.S. company is quite literally paying employees to monitor for profile content considered offensive to the Chinese government. If the latter, it means LinkedIn is working hand-in-hand with the CCP on censorship practices.
