President Biden on Wednesday said the United States is not considering sending troops to Ukraine amid rising fears about the possibility of a Russian military invasion.
“That is not on the table,” Biden told reporters at the White House before departing for a trip to Kansas City, Mo.
“We have a moral obligation and a legal obligation to our NATO allies if they were to attack under Article 5, it’s a sacred obligation. That obligation does not extend to … Ukraine,” he added.
Biden said it would “depend upon what the rest of the NATO countries were willing to do as well” but rejected the idea that the U.S. would “unilaterally use force to confront Russia” if it were to invade.
The president’s comments came a day after his tense two-hour virtual meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, during which White House officials said the American president warned his Russian counterpart of harsh economic sanctions should Russia invade Ukraine.

As many as 15 soldiers stationed in Alaska have died by suicide this year, more than double the number of such deaths in all of 2020 in a crisis that has defied solution.
The suicide deaths have sparked alarm at the Pentagon’s highest level. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin is aware of the “worrisome trend in Alaska,” according to a Defense official who was not authorized to speak publicly. Austin, who visited troops in Alaska this summer and addressed suicide and mental health, is in contact with Army leaders about improving conditions there and across the armed services to try to prevent “tragic deaths,” the official said.
Austin’s visit came after USA TODAY reported that at least six soldiers in Alaska had died by suicide in the first five months of 2021. Despite the attention, suicides among the 11,500 soldiers in Alaska have continued. The Army has confirmed 10 suicide deaths among soldiers in 2021 with another five deaths under investigation for suicide or accident. Two more soldiers in Alaska have died in accidents, according to John Pennell, an Army spokesman.
There were seven suicides among soldiers in Alaska in 2020 and eight in 2019. . .
Despite spending $214 million in fiscal year 2020 in a “Quality of Life” campaign at Fort Wainwright in Fairbanks, suicides have continued. The investment was made after a previous cluster of suicides, smaller than this year’s, had occurred. From January 2014 to March 2019, there were 11 suicides among soldiers at Fort Wainwright. A survey of 4,000 soldiers there found that 10.8% had expressed ideas about suicide, according to a 2019 report. (Read more from “Amid Spike in Suicides in Alaska, the Army Invested in Mental Health.

By New York Post. A document found on a hard drive in Jeffrey Epstein’s Manhattan townhouse detailed his intimate relationship with alleged madam Ghislaine Maxwell — including how the two were “rarely apart.”
The fawning file was created on a desktop by someone logged in as the user “GMax” on Oct. 14, 2002, and discovered by the feds after they raided the sex offender’s Upper East Side lair in 2019, an FBI analyst, Stephen Flatley, testified in Manhattan federal court Tuesday.
“Jeffrey and Ghislaine have been together as a couple for the last 11 years,” the note started. “They are, contrary to what people think, rarely apart, I almost always see them together.” . . .
“Jeffrey and Ghislaine share many mutual interests and they have a lot of fun together,” it continued.
The duo was described as thick as thieves, with the file noting, “they compliment each other really well.” (Read more from “‘Rarely Apart’: File on Epstein Hard Drive Details His Close Relationship With Ghislaine Maxwell” HERE)
Accuser Says Ghislaine Maxwell Assessed Her Body for Epstein When She Was 14
By NBC News. One of the women who says she was a minor when she started having sex with Jeffrey Epstein testified Tuesday that Ghislaine Maxwell personally inspected her body.
“She came in and felt my boobs and my hips and my buttocks and said I had a great body for Mr. Epstein and his friends,” the woman, who is being identified as “Carolyn,” said at Maxwell’s child sex trafficking trial in New York City.
Carolyn initially said she was 14 and later said she was 13 when she was introduced to Maxwell and Epstein by Virginia Roberts Giuffre — another woman who says the couple sexually abused and trafficked her.

A ‘Chilling Factor’ for Victims: Ghislaine Maxwell Lawyer Drops Anonymous Accusers’ Real Names in Court
By Rolling Stone. Last week in the sex-trafficking trial of Ghislaine Maxwell, defense attorney Jeff Pagliuca made a show of remembering to respect an alleged victim’s request for anonymity. He had just begun discussing the first accuser, known only by the pseudonym “Jane” while cross-examining Jeffrey Epstein’s former estate staff member Juan Alessi. Judge Alison Nathan broke in with a reminder to not say Jane’s real name out loud. Pagliuca told the judge not to worry. “I have it blacked out on all my copies,” he said, referring to the documents in front of him. Nathan replied that she was also providing the reminder for the benefit of Alessi, who was less familiar with the process. Then Pagliuca read from the document in front of him and promptly spoke Jane’s real first name out loud.
Today, he did it again. In open court, he uttered the real last name of Carolyn, the third of four accusers to testify for the state, who tearfully recounted testimony of being abused by Epstein and Maxwell starting when she was 14, and whom counsel had agreed to refer to by her first name only. Prosecutors immediately complained to the judge.
Last week, Ghislaine Maxwell's lawyer Jeff Pagliuca "accidentally" said Jane Doe's real first name.
Moments ago, he used the last name of Carolyn, who is testifying only under her first name to protect her privacy. What's going on?

Podcaster Joe Rogan said he believes members of the white supremacist group “Patriot Front” are secretly federal agents in disguise, arguing they’re “too slim” to be actual extremists.
On Saturday, more than 100 members of the group marched through downtown Washington, D.C., in matching uniforms, calling to “reclaim America.”
“There has never been a thing that I’ve ever seen, where almost immediately I was like, ‘those are feds,’” Rogan said on his podcast The Joe Rogan Experience on Tuesday. “First of all these guys are too slim, I’m looking at these guys, they’re all in shape, they’re all thin, they’re uniformly marching with flags. I’m like, there’s no way these f*cking idiots would be this organized.”
“You look at these people, walking down the street with their masks on, all dressed in black, all wearing like essentially uniform, all holding the same size American flag,” Rogan continued. “If you watch this I’m like, what are you guys doing?”
Rogan again argued that the marchers were too in shape to actually be a white supremacist group. “You look at them marching you go, why are these guys in such good shape?” (Read more from “Joe Rogan Thinks White Supremacist Group That Marched Through DC Is Fake” HERE)

For the first time in centuries the world’s population is set to decline in a few decades.
There are currently around 7.8 billion of us in the world right now and that number is expected to peak in 2064, when I’ll be 69 years old…yikes.
Based on a new study published in The Lancet, the peak will be at roughly 9.7 billion and then will drop to 8.8 billion by 2100, where I’ll either be reincarnated into a sheep or floating around in heaven, with the littest Instagram stories ever.
Anyway, Stein Emil Vollset, is the lead study author and Professor of Global Health at the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) – and he went into more detail of the ‘groundbreaking’ study. . .
“If our forecast is correct, it will be the first time population decline is driven by fertility decline, as opposed to events such as a pandemic or famine” (Read more from “The World’s Population Is Set to Decline for the First Time in Centuries” HERE)

The Biden administration is reportedly getting ready to evacuate Americans from Ukraine should Russian President Vladimir Putin choose to invade the country.
Senior US defense official tells @foxnews US intelligence sees signs that #Putin plans to invade #Ukraine on multi fronts using 175,000 troops in early 2022. The US govt is taking Putin’s signaling seriously. They are not treating it as a bluff.
The Biden administration planning another evacuation should terrify everyone, especially the Americans who could potentially need to be evacuated from Ukraine. https://t.co/gGsoqcMJRP
The administration does not currently see a need for evacuations, the sources stressed —airlines are still operating & land borders are open. The discussions are part of planning in the event the security situation severely deteriorates.
Putin has amassed more than 90,000 Russian troops on Ukraine’s border. The Ukrainian government has indicated it is also preparing to defend against an invasion. (Read more from “Report: Biden Administration Prepares to Evacuate Americans From Ukraine” HERE)

A nationwide injunction against President Joe Biden’s Wuhan coronavirus vaccine mandate for federal contractors has been issued by a federal judge in Georgia. The reasons cited for the injunction include Biden overreaching through executive order and a lack of congressional approval.
“While the Procurement Act explicitly and unquestionably bestows some authority upon the President, the Court is unconvinced, at this state of the litigation, that it authorized him to direct the type of actions by agencies that are contained in EO 14042. Pursuant to clear United States Supreme Court precedent, Congress is expected to ‘speak clearly’ when authorizing the exercise of powers of ‘vast economic and political significance,'” Judge Stan Baker of Southern District of Georgia wrote in the injunction.

Lia Thomas, 22, competed as Will Thomas for several years on the University of Pennsylvania men’s swim team.
Now Thomas is breaking records – on the women’s team. . .
And the situation has triggered another round of fights over the idea that men can become women, and also that they should be allowed to compete against biological women.
Thomas recently “raced away” from other competitors at the Zippy Invitational event in Akron, Ohio, winning the 1,650-yard freestyle by 38 seconds, according to the Daily Mail.
Thomas’ time of 15:59.71 was a record for the meet. And the pool where it happened. And it followed victories in the 500-yard freestyle as well as the 200-yard freestyle. (Read more from “Transgender “Female” Shattering Records Against Women” HERE)

The first accuser who testified at the Ghislaine Maxwell trial on Tuesday allegedly called the defendant’s defense attorney a “c**t.”
The accuser, “Jane,” testified that convicted sex-offender Jeffrey Epstein had sexual contact with her 14-year-old self during a late November testimony. She told the court that she met Epstein and Maxwell at the Interlochan Arts Camp where they claimed to be benefactors of the camp and awarded scholarships to students.
Prosecutor Alison Moe said Jane reportedly spoke to another witness—her brother Brian— on the phone where she told him she was shown a camp application during her testimony, according to the New York Post. She then reportedly called defense attorney Laura Menninger a “c**t,” a derogatory term for female genitalia.
Menninger raised the issue before the court, where prosecutors informed the courtroom of the alleged exchange between the two witnesses, the outlet reported. She argued that the prosecution is not fully aware of everything discussed in Jane and Brian’s discussion.
“Part of my concern is that those are the two things that Brian volunteered to them,” Menninger said. “They don’t know exactly what happened in this conversation.” (Read more from “Witness Reportedly Calls Ghislaine Maxwell’s Defense Attorney a C**t” HERE)

President Joe Biden has withdrawn Saule Omarova’s nomination to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency following revelations of her ties to communist ideology, the White House announced Tuesday.
Biden released a statement announcing that he had accepted Omarova’s request to end her nomination on Tuesday, but nevertheless criticized Republicans for their attacks against her. Republican Senators have highlighted Omarova’s alleged past membership in communist groups, as well as her past academic works, which included the thesis she wrote at Moscow State University, titled, “Karl Marx’s Economic Analysis and the Theory of Revolution in The Capital.” Omarova, a Cornell Law School professor, grew up in the Soviet Union.
“Saule would have brought invaluable insight and perspective to our important work on behalf of the American people,” Biden said in a statement. “But unfortunately, from the very beginning of her nomination, Saule was subjected to inappropriate personal attacks that were far beyond the pale.”
President Biden has accepted Saule Omarova's request that her name be withdrawn for the nomination for Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, per a statement from him.
