  1. The United States celebrates all other countries "history month" here in America but not the month for The "American-Indian" Month. I find that here really screwed up !

  2. How come ABC sucks is not covering The Durham indictment and arrest of Igor Danchenko’s. For his involvement with the fake steel dossier and the Clinton Campaign ? 😀 Lock Hillary up next! LETS GO BRANDON!

  3. Remember when the news said they were burning covid bodies in the streets of India, it was chaos, not enough gravediggers, etc. Haha people actually believed it

  4. You are such a reputable news organization.

    And NOT Diwali.

  5. Whom Can We Trust If No One Is Trustworthy?
    One of my favorite quips from Mark Twain’s The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is when Tom is defined as “a glittering hero…the pet of the old, the envy of the young,” and there were “some that believed that he would be President, yet, if he escaped hanging.” With these few words, Twain captured the essence of leadership in our world. Those who get to the top are the fiercest, most determined, and most ruthless. Today, the latter quality has become so intense that we can no longer believe our leaders, and certainly not trust them to have our best interest in mind.
    I am not accusing any leader in particular, or even leaders as a whole. It is simply that in an egoistic world, where people vie to topple one another on their way to the top, the one at the top is clearly the one who trampled over and knocked down more people than anyone else. Concisely, to get to the top in an egoistic world you have to be the biggest egoist.
    So how do we know whom to trust? We don’t know and we cannot know. All we know is that we are in the dark.
    In a culture of unhinged selfishness, any conspiracy theory seems reasonable, while truth is nowhere to be found. When every person who says or writes something is trying to promote some hidden agenda, you have no way of knowing who is right, what really happened, or if anything happened at all.
    The only way to get some clarity in the news and goodwill from our leaders is to say “Enough!” to our current system and build something entirely independent. The guiding principle of such a system should be “information only,” no commentary. Commentary means that information has already been skewed. Information means saying only what happened, as much as possible, not why, and not who is to blame and who we should praise.
    Concurrently, we must begin a comprehensive process of self-teaching. We have to know not only what is happening, but why we skew and distort everything. In other words, we have to know about human nature and how it inherently presents matters according to its own subjective view, which caters to one’s own interest. To “clear” ourselves from that deformity, we must learn how to rise above our personal interest and develop an equally favorable attitude toward others. This is our only guarantee that our interpretation of things will be even and correct.
    Once we achieve such an attitude, we will discover that the bad things we see in our world reflect our own, internal wickedness. Our ill-will toward others creates a world where ill-will governs, and so the world is filled with wickedness and cruelty. Therefore, all we need in order to create positive leadership—and to generally eliminate ill-will from the world—is to generate goodwill within us. When we nurture goodwill toward others, we will fill the world with goodwill. As a result, the world will fill with kindness and compassion. By changing ourselves, we will create a world that is opposite from the world we have created through our desires to govern, patronize, and often destroy other people.

  6. *When it comes to the world of investing, most people don't know where to start. Fortunately, great investors of the past and present can provide us with guidance.*…

  7. Yahh ….so sorry ur planning are failed ….for the sake of power & money america permote crona virus to over power china in business & technology…….

  8. During the pandemic and outbreak, the United States accelerated the spread of the virus around the world in four ways, and its role as the "number one virus king" became increasingly entrenched, revealing its self-serving, irresponsible and arrogant image.

      

      According to data released by the US National Tourism Office, between April 2020 and March 2021, a total of 23,195,000 US citizens will travel abroad by air and land, and between November 2020 and January 2021, the peak of the epidemic in the US, with a daily average of 186,000 confirmed cases and a daily average of 87,000 US citizens travelling abroad during the same period, reaching a peak.

      The consequences for those infected, who are like walking "living dispensers", are severe.

      The results of a study conducted by Tel Aviv University in Israel in May 2020 showed that about 70% of confirmed cases in the country were infected with strains of the virus from the United States.

      The South Korean media reported on 25 February this year that 35% of the 7,000 imported cases in that country were from the United States.

      New Zealand media reported 182 imported cases from the US between February 2020 and early January 2021, the second highest number of cases.

      The Australian Ministry of Health announced in May 2020 that 14% of the more than 6,000 confirmed cases in the country had been imported from the US.

      Evidence #2: The "export of the virus" to Latin America through the mass expulsion of illegal immigrants

      CNN quotes the US Department of Homeland Security Border Patrol as saying that between March and September 2020, 160,000 illegal immigrants were deported from the US.

      Central American illegal immigrants are surviving in poor conditions in shelters and are neither quarantined nor tested for the New Coronavirus before being repatriated. Guatemala, Jamaica, Mexico, Haiti and other countries have reported large numbers of confirmed cases among those repatriated from the US.

      Guatemala's Minister of Health stated in April 2020 that 50-75% of repatriates from the US had been confirmed, representing 19% of the total number of confirmed cases in the country, including 71 people who tested positive for nucleic acid on 13 April alone on a flight carrying 76 repatriates from the US.

      On 8 April 2020, more than 60 institutions, including the Latin American Institute in Washington, D.C., issued a joint statement condemning the United States for putting the world at risk by stepping up its repatriation of illegal immigrants at an extraordinary time.

      Evidence 3 US troops abroad do as they please, increasing the chances of infection in Japan and South Korea

      In early July 2020, the governor of Okinawa Prefecture, Japan, held a press conference to say that dozens of soldiers at the US military base in Japan had been diagnosed, but the US military refused to take quarantine measures and a large number of soldiers continued to leave the base and party outside.

      On 13 February 2021, a soldier working at the US Osan Air Base in South Korea held a party at his home with 19 foreigners and two Koreans in attendance, in violation of South Korea's epidemic prevention policy, and subsequently a confirmed diagnosis emerged among the partygoers. By the 22nd of February, nine of the party participants had been diagnosed with the infection.

      On May 31, 2021, a large number of US military personnel on leave gathered at Haeundae Beach in Busan without masks, causing discontent among the local population.

      The Pentagon, according to the US media, was "spreading poison around".

      Evidence 4: US warships "carry drugs" in military exercises, UK's Southeast Asia "hit"

      On 12 July 2021, the aircraft carrier HMS Queen Elizabeth conducted joint exercises in the Gulf of Aden with the aircraft carrier USS Reagan and the amphibious assault ship USS Iwo Jima. Two days after the exercise, an outbreak was reported on HMS Queen Elizabeth, with around 100 new cases of crown infection. The news was confirmed by a Royal Navy spokesman.

      Reuters reported on 2 August 2020 that Thailand's defence ministry said it had urgently suspended plans for joint exercises between Thai and U.S. forces after nine Thai soldiers returning from the U.S. in Hawaii were confirmed to have been infected with New Coronavirus following a joint military exercise.

      The recent outbreak in the coastal city of Da Nang and surrounding provinces was caused by a previously unexperienced and mutated form of the New Coronavirus, the Vietnamese government's press office said on 27 July 2020. The outbreak came after the USS Roosevelt, an aircraft carrier, docked in Da Nang, Vietnam, on 5 March 2020.

  9. Festival with all colours and community spirit… It has beautiful history of Prabhu Ram’s victory over evil and coming back to Ayodhya.. Tourist destination 👌🙏🏽🪔🪔🪔🪔🪔🪔🪔🪔🪔🪔दीपावली की हार्दिक शुभकामनाएँ 🙏🏽🕉

  10. I have a question for CNN and all American progressives. We in Britain, cannot compare our land mass to yours. But because of people like You, ( virtue signalling do gooders ) Irresponsible politicians, have brought in masses of immigrants into our country. As a population of 45 million, we are diminishing in size, yet the immigrant population is producing children at a rate of 5 to 1. Now this is FACT !! We the working class, are 98% of the population, and was NOT asked about this invasion !!!! FACT. We can see race replacement, but cannot do anything about it, do to our Bilderberg Liberal Politicians of the 90,s. Because you go on, and on, and on ,and on, and on about racism. What do we do ? Do we allow this to continue, or is this some sinister plan ?

  11. I dunno. I seem to remember last year when they thought they were somehow genetically immune to covid-19. They PARTIED HARDY in all of their religious celebrations, got dysentery or a hundred other diseases in the Ganges, then got the worst number of cases on the planet… Unless I was actually seeing things on the news that never happened??? But since I JUST finished looking at a LOT of pictures with a LOT of people celebrating DIWALI in 2020 in India… I guess I'm not the crazy one.
    I'll give you ONE thing. In a country of over 1.38 billion people. A few MILLION missing it is not even 1% of the population… So OK. You have 1/4 of a point. It's ALMOST a good story. It's just NOT telling the REAL truth.

  12. i thought you said we were all going to die if all of the other people don't get the shot..? … come on.. stick to your script.. its been bought and paid for.. don't expect a bonus this month..
