President Donald J. Trump announced significant changes to the Federal procurement policy to enhance competition, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. The existing Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) will be revamped through a comprehensive review by the Office of Federal Procurement Policy. “This RFO will reduce more than 40 years of bureaucratic buildup that will unleash our procurement system with generational change and results. We are Making America Great Again,” said OMB Senior Advisor Kevin Rhodes. President Donald J. Trump has unveiled an initiative to reform the Federal procurement system, significantly altering the rules surrounding government purchasing.

There are some major indications appearing in Trends and Patterns. Some are geo-political (so this is the right blog). Some are cultural (so, not the right blog, but... so what?) There are probably Origami Trends as well, so... Jambalaya time at Smoking Mirrors. We’ll try to put it all together as far as the appearances manifesting. We can’t tell you where it’s all going to wind up, BUT... you should be able to intuit a thing or two.

The G20 consists of 19 countries, as well as the African Union and European Union, together making up 80% of the global economy and two-thirds of the population. South Africa will hold the presidency of the G20 until November 2025, when it will be handed over to the U.S., at the next summit, in Johannesburg. The decision to boycott the G20 in South Africa was first announced in February, when Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced he would not be attending any meetings and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said he had commitments in Washington that would prevent him from attending a meeting of finance ministers.Secretary Rubio said he would not “coddle anti-Americanism.”

It was supposed to be a routine campaign pit stop, the kind of low-stakes political affair where candidates smile like used car salesmen and dish out platitudes thicker than Ontario maple syrup. Instead, Mark Carney found himself dodging verbal bricks in a Hamilton hall, facing hecklers who lobbed Jeffrey Epstein references like Molotovs. No rebuttal, no denial. Just a pivot worthy of an Olympic gymnast, straight to the perils of digital discourse. "There are many serious issues that we’re dealing with,” he said, ignoring the criticism that had just lobbed his way. “One of them is the sea of misogyny, antisemitism, hatred, and conspiracy theories — this sort of pollution online that washes over our virtual borders from the United States.”

Thomas Piketty Professor at EHESS and the Paris School of Economics. The American president wants the 'Pax Americana' to be sustained by tribute payments from the rest of the world in order to endlessly fund US deficits. But with American power already in decline, we must begin to imagine a world without it, the economist writes in his column. The United States is no longer a reliable country. For some, this is nothing new. The Iraq War, launched in 2003 – resulting in over 100,000 deaths, lasting regional destabilization, and the return of Russian influence – had already shown the world the wrondoings of American military hubris. But the current crisis is new because it challenges the very core of the country's economic, financial, and political power. The US appears disoriented, led by an unstable and erratic leader with no democratic counterweight.

As most of the world has been focused on President Trump’s economic policies and tariffs this past week, he continued to forge ahead to fulfill his campaign promise to restore the Zionist lobby in the U.S. as the “most powerful lobby in the U.S. by far.” Here is a recording of Trump’s campaign promise in 2024 to restore the Zionist lobby for Israel as the “most powerful lobby in the U.S. by far.” Notice how he distinguishes between Zionist Jews and non-Zionist Jews, by calling the later “Palestinians” in a racial slur, similar to how Black Americans used to be referred by the “N” word, suggesting that they are inferior human beings.

U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced in a Cabinet meeting on Thursday that the government has launched a “massive testing and research effort” to determine what causes autism. He said the effort involves hundreds of scientists globally and will be completed by September. Once the environmental causes of autism are identified, “We’ll be able to eliminate those exposures,” he said. At the meeting, President Donald Trump responded, “There will be no bigger news conference than that.” He added, “If you can come up with that answer where you stop taking something, you stop eating something, or maybe it’s a shot. But something’s causing it.”

Recent studies link fluoride in drinking water to significant increases in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and ADHD in children. A Florida study of 73,000+ children found a 526% higher ASD rate in areas with fluoridated water, alongside rises in intellectual disabilities (102%) and developmental delays (24%). The surge in autism diagnoses (now 1 in 36 U.S. children) coincides with decades of water fluoridation, while countries like Germany and France—with minimal fluoridation—report lower ASD rates (1 in 139). Fluoride’s use as an industrial byproduct (e.g., hydrofluorosilicic acid) raises safety concerns.

The past trading week (April 7-11) in the financial markets was marked by sky-high volatility (that is, huge amplitudes of fluctuations in quotations), not seen since covid, and in some parameters (for example, in the range of intraday fluctuations of the main American stock index S&P 500) – even since 2008. Traders closely followed the news from the “trading front” and many times changed their mood between panic and euphoria. Market movements have been further enhanced by algorithmic trading, the role of which has increased greatly in recent years, in particular through the application of artificial intelligence.

Shockwaves have been sent rippling through the scientific community after a study found that around 30 years have been wiped from the average life expectancy of people who received at least two doses of Covid mRNA “vaccines.” The alarming study found that the mRNA injections reduce a person’s lifespan by a whopping 37%. In the United States, the average life expectancy in 2019 was 78.79 years. A 37% reduction from 78.79 equals a loss of just over 29.15 years. The average life expectancy in the Western world, generally encompassing Europe, North America, and parts of Asia and Australia, is around 80-83 years.

Investigators believe Nikita Casap killed his parents to fund a plan to assassinate the US president and frame Russia. US teen plotted to kill Trump and flee to Ukraine – FBI A Wisconsin teenager accused of murdering his parents also plotted to assassinate US President Donald Trump and flee overseas while framing Russia for the crime, according to an unsealed FBI affidavit. Nikita Casap, 17, was charged last month with first-degree murder after police found the bodies of his mother and stepfather, both shot in the head, inside their Waukesha home. He was arrested in Kansas after fleeing in a stolen vehicle with $14,000 in cash, passports, and the family dog. Officers also recovered an unloaded revolver, boxes of ammunition, and two cell phones during the traffic stop.

US President Donald Trump has signed an executive order that extends a package of anti-Russian sanctions introduced by his predecessor Joe Biden for a year, according to the US Federal Register. On April 15, 2021, the Biden administration introduced executive order 14024, imposing sanctions on Russian individuals and entities that may have allegedly been engaged in cyber-enabled activities against the country, efforts to undermine the conduct of elections in the United States and other countries, attempts to harm or kill American citizens, as well as financial and other sanctions-busting operations. Russian Presidential Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said in March that Russia considered all restrictions imposed on it as illegitimate and expected them to be lifted.

We learn from Ursula, the friend of all Europeans, that Europe’s roots are in the Talmud. Thanks, but we can do without it. To each his own—An old video of the President of the European Commission has resurfaced in the alternative media, in which she stated that “The values of Europe are the values of the Talmud”. The phrase immediately caused a scandal and the video was circulated everywhere. It is an old video, dating back to when she received an honorary PhD at Ben Gurion University. The confusion is more than legitimate. The words were clear: Talmud. Not Judaism, not Judeo-Christian roots as conservative politicians have often claimed, but the Talmud. A clear and unequivocal word, pronounced in a prepared speech.

Two men with alleged ties to a foreign terrorist organization have been arrested and charged in the brutal torture and attempted murder of an abducted woman in Washington state, according to reports. The horrifying series of events unfolded in King County on Jan. 21, but new details about the case just came to light after a second suspect was arrested last week. At around 10 p.m. that night, the victim was returning home from work to her apartment in Burien when she was kidnapped by armed men who forced her into a vehicle while discharging a firearm.

Carney defended transitions for minors, calling them a “fundamental right.” “Canada is a mosaic; people can be who they are, they can love who they love,” Carney said this week on the campaign trail. “Access to health care in Canada is not a business, it is a fundamental right, and we will defend it for all Canadians, without exception,” he added.

China’s Ministry of Commerce recently added seven rare earth elements—including dysprosium, terbium, and lutetium—to its restricted export list. These elements are essential for manufacturing high-performance magnets used in electric vehicles, advanced weaponry, and consumer electronics.

An aviation expert explained how Russia's thermobaric weapon works. Despite ongoing negotiations, Russia continues to destroy Ukrainian cities, using new weapons. "During the strike on Kyiv, a thermobaric weapon was used, as well as in Kropyvnytskyi – a thermobaric charge, and on the "Shaheds", a thermobaric charge. So, there is an explosion, but it's not exactly like a thermobaric one; it’s some kind of mixed type – that’s how it turns out. Because a thermobaric weapon first creates a detonation and the spread of an aerosol mixture, and then, after that, a second detonation, when the entire mixture explodes," he explained. Google

Opposition to the U.S. and their funding of Israel’s military, which has now reportedly killed over 8,000 Palestinians including over 3,000 children, is rapidly mounting. GAZA: 3,195 Children Killed in Three Weeks Surpasses Annual Number of Children Killed in Conflict Zones since 2019 The number of children reported killed in Gaza in just three weeks has surpassed the annual number of children killed across the world’s conflict zones since 2019, Save the Children said. Since October 7, more than 3,257 children have been reported killed, including at least 3,195 in Gaza, 33 in the West Bank, and 29 in Israel, according to the Ministries of Health in Gaza and Israel respectively. The number of children reported killed in just three weeks in Gaza is more than the number killed in armed conflict globally—across more than 20 countries—over the course of a whole year, for the last three years.
