NYC Mayor Unveils Innovative New Tool to Clean Up City: Trash Cans
Residents of the Big Apple will now have the option to throw their refuse in specially designated receptacles known as “trash cans” rather than on the streets.

Democrat New York City Mayor Eric Adams highlighted the new sanitation effort Monday, requiring buildings with one to nine residential units to use wheeled garbage bins.
Beginning November 12, all properties with 1-9 residential units will be required to set their trash out in…a wheelie bin! Who’d have thought???

“Many people thought it was impossible that these babies here, the bins, were going to be part of our trash revolution,” Adams said at a press conference outside NYC’s mayoral estate Gracie Mansion, where he showed New Yorkers a demonstration on how to use the bins.
“We are only catching up to what other municipalities around the globe are currently doing,” Adams stated.
The mayor was mercilessly mocked on social media over the common-sense initiative introducing what’s already standard in most American towns.
Incredible stuff. Mark my words, this will become the standard trash disposal method in many major cities.

KJP & Kirby Raise Eyebrows After Claiming Joe Biden Will Hold ‘Big Boy’ Press Conference
Biden lackeys Karine Jean-Pierre and John Kirby bizarrely claimed Joe Biden will hold a “big boy” press conference in the coming days, raising eyebrows among those questioning his mental acuity.
After clearing the term with Jean-Pierre, White House National Security Communications Advisor Kirby stated that Biden will soon hold a “big boy” press conference to assuage skeptics concerned about his cognitive state.
“The president will hold a conference — I guess a ‘big boy’ press conference, we’re calling it — and take questions from you all,” Kirby smirked at reporters during a briefing Monday.
JUST IN: Both Karine Jean-Pierre and John Kirby refer to President Biden’s upcoming press conference as a “Big Boy” press conference.

Biden press secretary Jean-Pierre used the same “big boy” press conference term when explaining Biden’s upcoming schedule this week.
At the same briefing, Kirby insisted that the Joe Biden the world saw stumbling, bumbling, and freezing during the presidential debate is not the same “commander in chief” he interacts with on a daily basis.

Kirby and Jean-Pierre’s effusive use of the infantilizing term “big boy” to describe Biden raised eyebrows online.
Fox News White House correspondent Peter Doocy joked, “One way to stop getting people to focus on [Biden] being 81 and possibly having issues with his acuity is just to call him a big boy.”

Jokes aside, that is very poor messaging at a time when they need to portray the President as in command, strong, and taking the lead.

Kirby and Jean-Pierre’s patronizing tone is similar to that of Jill Biden when she excessively praised Sleepy Joe after his disastrous debate.
“Joe, you did such a great job answering every question! You knew all the facts!” Jill said to her husband in front of a cheering crowd.

CHAOS Erupts in Press Briefing After Jean-Pierre Refuses to Say Whether Parkinson’s Expert Visited Biden White House
White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre sparred with reporters Monday over reports that a Parkinson’s expert visited the grounds numerous times to check on Joe Biden.
Reporters became irate with Biden’s press secretary when she repeatedly stonewalled them and refused to offer clarity about a New York Times report that renowned Parkinson’s physician Dr. Kevin Cannard visited the White House at least 8 times over the last year.
“Did Dr. Kevin Cannard come to the White House to examine the president’s condition?” CBS correspondent Ed O’Keefe asked.

“We cannot share names!” Jean-Pierre said, which O’Keefe pushed back on.
“It’s public! I looked it up right before we came out here,” O’Keefe said, referring to the White House visitor log. “It’s right there for anyone to see!”
“Ed, I hear you, I cannot from here confirm any of that because we have to keep their privacy. I think they would appreciate that too,” Jean-Pierre responded.
“I am not going to do that, Ed. It doesn’t matter how hard you push me. It doesn’t matter how angry you get with me. I’m not going to confirm a name,” she continued. “It doesn’t matter if it’s even in the log. I am not going to do that from here.”
Even when another reporter tried to pin down a ‘yes’ or ‘no’ from Jean-Pierre over whether a physician has re-evaluated Biden, she refused to offer a definitive answer.
“Yes or no, has his physician seen a reason to re-evaluate him for Parkinson’s?”

‘Barbaric’: Russia Accused Of Attacking Kiev Children’s Hospital On Eve Of NATO Summit In D.C.
The war in Ukraine continues on a downward spiral, taking another grim and tragic turn, amid widespread allegations that Russian forces destroyed a children’s hospital in Kiev amid a bigger barrage of missiles which hit several sites on Monday.
UN officials and Ukraine authorities say at least 31 people were killed Monday after some 40 missiles were launched across the country. There are reports that people are still buried under the rubble of Okhmatdyt children’s hospital. Local officials say at least seven have been killed in these specific strikes on the Ukrainian capital.
Okhmatdyt has a children’s cancer ward, and images have been widely circulating of children receiving IV treatments on a nearby sidewalk after the hospital was reduced to ruins. Britain’s Foreign Minister David Lammy blasted the hospital strike as “an appalling attack on Ukrainian civilians.”
France also called it a “barbaric” act, with a statement saying “Deliberately targeting a children’s hospital can be added to the list of war crimes for which Russia will have to account.” And a German foreign ministry statement additionally called out President Putin directly, saying, “This is what Putin’s… willingness to negotiate and desire for peace look like.”
EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell posted to X, “Russia keeps ruthlessly targeting Ukrainian civilians … Ukraine needs air defense now. All responsible for Russian war crimes will be held to account.” This comes the same week the major NATO annual summit with heads of alliance states is set to meet in Washington D.C.
At this moment, Hungary’s Viktor Orban is in Beijing, where he met with President Xi Jinping, to talk about ways forward to achieving ceasefire or peaceful settlement in Ukraine. Hungary is calling this “Peace Mission Beijing 3.0”.
But Russia’s Defense Ministry (MoD) is vehemently denying that its missiles struck the hospital, instead saying only “intended” military targets were hit. For example the MoD says it took out three HIMARS missile batteries.
Interestingly, the MoD statements says there were “foreign specialists” that were killed in the strike. “Operational/tactical aircraft, unmanned aerial vehicles, missile troops and artillery of the Russian groups of forces destroyed three US-made HIMARS multiple rocket launchers and up to 10 foreign specialists responsible for their use and struck massed enemy manpower and military hardware in 122 locations,” it said.
As for the children’s hospital, Moscow is now claiming that the destruction was the result of an errant Ukrainian anti-air defense missile. Below is the Russian narrative of the event via TASS:
“The allegations made by Kiev officials about a deliberate Russian missile strike on civilian targets are absolutely untrue. Numerous photo and video reports from Kiev, which have been made public, make it clear that damage was done by a falling Ukrainian air defense missile launched from a missile system deployed within the city limits.”
Images like the below are now widely circulating of children who were evacuated in the wake of the strike, now receiving treatment on the streets of the capital city…
The Kremlin has further highlighted the timing of the hospital strike, saying that the allegation is ultimately aimed to immediately attract more funding and Western anti-air systems which Zelensky has been desperately pleading for. The Russian military said, “the Kiev regime has been throwing such tantrums for years, each time ahead of a get-together (summit) of its NATO sponsors.”
“The goal of such provocations is to ensure the further inflow of funds for the Kiev regime and a continuation of the war until the last Ukrainian,” the statement added.
Zelensky has responded: “Russian terrorists once again massively attacked Ukraine with missiles. Different cities: Kyiv, Dnipro, Kryvy Rig, Sloviansk, Kramatorsk. More than 40 missiles of various types. Residential buildings, infrastructure and a children’s hospital were damaged,” he said on X.
Amid an ongoing major rescue mission at Okhmatdyt hospital, the casualty count is likely to rise throughout the day as bodies are pulled from the rubble. Once again we are presented with two wildly contrasting accounts at a very pivotal moment. And the timing of it all… NATO will make major decisions at the Washington summit this week, and Hungary’s Orban is shuttling across the globe pleading for the sides to come to the negotiating table.
Zelensky says the US, EU or China but not Hungary could meditate Russo-Ukrainian peace talks.
— Leonid Ragozin (@leonidragozin) July 8, 2024
It must be the first time he mentions China in that context – the only real potential mediator among the three.
And it is China where Orban headed to after Kyiv and Moscow. Not…
Two realities remain amid the ongoing dense ‘fog of war’: 1) errant anti-air defense missiles from Ukraine have caused death and destruction before, and 2) any time Russia unleashes dozens of long-range missiles against Ukrainian cities, the potential that civilian infrastructure – including hospitals – could be struck and destroyed remains a likelihood.
Sadly this puts more distance between those trying to lay the groundwork for truce talks, and those hawks wishing to escalate the war.
The two sides will now in the wake of the tragedy enter an all-too-familiar information war of ‘narratives’. But the broader focus, in an ideal world, would be a big global diplomatic push for peace now.
